Chapter six hundred and eightieth: tit for tat
Gwen, a prince with a different surname in the United Empire and a legend in the military, is now semi-retired.
His fame does not lie in his strength. If we only look at his strength, Prince Gwen's seventh-level combat power cannot even enter the first or even the second echelon in the empire.
His fame lies in his seniority and military commander ability.
This old man is the adopted brother of the contemporary emperor. Even the eldest and second princes have to call him uncle when they meet him.
At a young age, he followed the contemporary emperor to seize power and started his career. He had the merit of being a dragon. Later, he served as the emperor's personal guard, a general in conquest, and a pioneer in breaking territories. During this period, he made many military exploits and saved the emperor's life many times.
The most important thing is that this guy's ability to command soldiers in combat is excellent, and he is very good at teaching people.
Nearly half of the hundreds of famous generals in the empire come from his disciples, and these disciples themselves will train their close followers and teach them the combat experience summarized by Prince Gwen.
It can be said that he is a genuine low-level person with many talents.
Although now that he is getting older, and in order to make room for the new king in the future, Gwen himself has chosen to take a back seat.
But his prestige is still very terrifying within the United Empire, especially among the military.
Even his position as a prince with a different surname was jointly applied for by the eldest prince, the second prince and others to his father after he chose to retreat to the second line.
After all, this old man is so sensible, so naturally they, the brats vying for the throne, can't do anything stupid.
Using a top-notch job to please this military maniac, and also win over the military, this is a sure-fire deal.
And maybe after the new king inherits the throne, he will have to ask this old gentleman to come out again and teach more good generals to support himself.
Therefore, this Prince Gwen is one of the few in the entire United Empire who, like the Fox Clan, can not stand in line and do nothing, but is attracted by all the princes.
But now this high-ranking prince was lying on a chair with his teeth bared and cursing.
Sitting across from him was someone who was not only tightly bound, but also had his mouth sealed.
Qin Yu, whose face was wrapped with tape, was expressionless. Listening to Prince Gwen's endless muttering and abuse, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.
If there weren't a large number of officers with fierce eyes standing around, looking at him fiercely, he would have grown ten mouths on his body to show this old man what it means to have more mouths and more power!
If you don’t put this old man in a box and take him away when the time comes! That’s a sign of his strong heart!
It's a pity that, facing a large number of officers who were watching eagerly all around, and looking at the medals on their bodies that were either second-class or third-class merit, Qin Yu finally succumbed to the power and did not dare to commit suicide at this time.
That's when the old man held on to his neck corrector, blocked Qin Yu's mouth, and reprimanded Qin Yu unilaterally.
The door to the side was suddenly pushed open, and several figures quickly walked in.
One of the leading officers came to Gwen, suddenly raised his hand in salute, and punched his chest heavily with his fist, his expression serious.
"The inner ghost has been found. He is the guard captain responsible for searching guests at the manor. The devil turned into the appearance of his dead wife to seduce him, and promised to resurrect his dead wife after the incident was completed, so he agreed to help."
Hearing the officer's words, Prince Gwen couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"It's another little trick of finding weakness in people's hearts, these bastards."
"Teacher, what should we do with this captain? Should we hand him over to the Imperial City Guards?"
"Hand it in? If you hand him over to those stupid young men, do you think he can still survive? No one living in the imperial city has an ordinary status. If one person dies, it will be a big trouble. This
As a result, the guards were very nervous. If they knew that this kid was assisting the enemy in carrying out bombings here, they would have to skin him alive!"
The Imperial City is the heart of a country, and those who can live here cannot be of ordinary status.
People like the widows of fighting heroes, such as Yuna, cannot settle in the Imperial City.
This is not to say that they are not qualified, but that although the treatment in the Imperial City is good, dangers and resources coexist, so it is not safe for them to live there.
War widows generally live in the small plane at the rear, which is safe and secure without any threats.
Although it is not as rich as here, the security is definitely much higher than here. After all, even if someone wants to cause trouble, they cannot choose a place without any strategic significance.
The most important thing is that even if the empire really falls that day, those small planes will definitely be the last places to be hit, and they are also the places most likely to be defended. That is the real safe place.
The people living in this imperial city are generally the families of major military officers, the descendants of city lord-level officials, and the princes and princesses of various subordinate countries, etc.
Yes, the residents here are actually hostages, a kind of existence that is not stated clearly but everyone knows it.
The empire is responsible for protecting their safety, and at the same time, it continues to open transmission channels so that officers and city lords from all over the place can come and reunite with them at any time.
When you are loyal to the United Empire, they are definitely the safest in the Imperial City. Even if all the elite guards guarding the Imperial City die, they will not be harmed at all.
If all the guards are dead, then the imperial guards will go up. If all the imperial guards are dead, then the imperial guards will go up. If all the imperial guards are dead, then the royal family will go up!
Since the royal family has made a promise! Then they will definitely keep their word!
But what if you were tricked into rebelling? Then I'm sorry, rebels have to pay the price, right? If you don't pay, the empire will have to find someone to pay in your place!
Of course, although the people living here are considered a different kind of hostage, in a sense, they are also talents being carefully cultivated.
After all, the resources of the Imperial City are the richest among all the cities in the country, and a large number of the empire's top leaders can be seen here at any time.
It can even be said that if you throw a brick casually on the roof of a building and hit five people, three of them must be high-ranking officials, one is a family member, and the other nine out of ten is a member of his mother's royal family!
This is definitely the best place to integrate into the upper-class circles of the empire and make friends with powerful people. Maybe by just hanging around, you will transform from a hostage to the next generation of powerful people.
Therefore, there are also many people in the family who have no hope of competing for the head of the family, but are ambitious and unwilling to admit defeat. They actively apply to come here to be hostages in order to make a last ditch effort.
Precisely because the royal family has given a promise of absolute safety, the guards of this imperial city are extremely mentally sensitive. Let alone ordinary people, even if you are a prince or princess who has made a mistake, you must be tied up and taken away first.
Dare to resist? If they don't give you a concussion, then they will be sorry for their status as a bodyguard!
It doesn’t matter what your status is! As long as you commit a crime, you will be the king of heaven and I will come! You have to go in and squat first!
If this group of guys knew that someone dared to engage in explosives here and endanger the safety of people in the city, let alone other things, the one-stop service of physical memory recovery technique, destructive brain probing, beheading on the street, would definitely be inevitable, and anyone would be able to do it.
Same.
After waving towards the officer, Prince Gwen, who had a headache, spoke quickly.
"Go and beat that bastard until he wakes up! After the beating, tell him to get away!"
"this…………"
The officers looked at each other with hesitation when they heard this.
"Prince, this is against the rules."
"What? Just cutting him off is in line with the rules? Are you sure that if it were you, you would be able to resist the devil's temptation?"
"I…………"
"If someone is killed this time, it won't be enough for him to die ten times! But since there are no deaths, let's forget it. Those who can stay in the imperial city must also have made military exploits. They were just obsessed with ghosts once, and they will not die.
."
While speaking, Prince Gwen moved his neck, feeling the severe pain in his neck, and his expression instantly became distorted.
His originally calm tone turned violent on the spot.
"What the hell! But I was beaten like this for no reason! Who am I to ask for reason? Don't let that kid go yet! I'll go over and beat him myself later!"
"yes!"
After taking care of the officers, Prince Gwen, holding the neck corrector, turned to look at Qin Yu again.
As a result, it was discovered that Qin Yu had actually been untied at this time!
Looking at Hu Baibai who was hiding behind Qin Yu, holding a paper fan in his mouth and struggling to untie the rope, Prince Gwen's expression changed instantly. He got up excitedly, slapped the table hard, and roared.
"What are you doing? You! Who allowed you to let him go! I'm still here watching! You!"
