With doubts, Zhong Chi followed Meng Helu and arrived outside the hall of the city lord's palace. Only then did he realize that there were a large number of guards outside the hall. Zhong Chi did some statistics and found that in these two places
The number of guards added together is enough to reach a thousand.
Due to the appearance of these guards, the guards in the City Lord's Mansion are particularly inconspicuous. They are not on the same level at all. It is not difficult for Zhong Chi to guess that these guards are probably the real soldiers of the Yu Clan used to fight.
I'm afraid even Meng Helu may not be able to match his overall strength.
"Why did the Yu Emperor send so many guards to deal with me?" Zhong Chi vaguely felt that something was wrong. It should not be as simple as the Yu Emperor trying to deal with Zhong Chi. How could it be that so many real Yu clan guards were sent out for this purpose?
Dealing with a Zhong Chi?
Soon, Zhong Chi entered the hall and saw three strong men in the hall. The man in the center had an extraordinary aura. At first glance, he was a real strong man, wearing a gorgeous robe.
On both sides of the man, there were two generals wearing armor, both of whom had an extraordinary temperament, and their eyes were full of murderous aura. At a glance, you could tell that they were two generals who had been fighting for a long time.
"King Rui, Senior Zhong Chi is here." Meng Helu saw a powerful prince for the first time. Facing this King Rui, he was inevitably a little flustered.
King Rui is the man in the gorgeous robe. He looks relatively young. He is also a great genius of the Yu clan and has now been crowned king. Zhongchi has also heard of King Rui, but this is the first time he has seen him.
"Zhong Chi accepts the order!" King Rui said seriously when he saw Zhong Chi.
Zhong Chi naturally did not hesitate and saluted: "His Majesty Yu Huang is boundless in power!"
"My Yu clan subject Zhong Chi has the blood of the God King and is extremely talented. He is one of the five gods under the Manifestation Holy Stone of Tianyu Academy. He joined the Fengshen Temple six months ago and became a seventh-level god race player. Now he has completed the mission of a god.
I am officially made a member of the temple, and Zhong Chi is given the title of Jingyu Marquis of my Yu tribe. I appreciate this!" King Rui announced the announcement of the Emperor Yu's reward order.
Zhong Chi was shocked. He hadn't returned to the Temple of Conferment to hand in the divine mission yet. Why did the reward come down so quickly?
There was doubt in his heart, but Zhong Chi did not hesitate and said hurriedly: "Thank you, His Majesty Yu Huang, for the gift!"
With that said, Zhong Chi took over Emperor Yu's reward order from King Narui. At the same time, he respectfully said to King Narui: "Zhong Chi has met King Rui!"
King Rui put away his serious expression and said with a smile: "Jingyu Hou, there is no need to be so polite. Now you are also a Marquis of Fang, and you and I are equal in official rank."
The official titles of the princes of the Yu Clan are actually the same. However, everyone knows that the honor of being a prince is a higher level than that of a lord. However, the kings of the Yu Clan have always been super powerful from the Yu Clan.
Only those who can enjoy this honor can enjoy this honor. Except for the King of War, no other foreigner has received such an honor.
"Jingyu Hou Zhongchi, I have heard your name a long time ago in Yuhuang City. You are one of the top ten students in Tianyu Academy's assessment, and one of the five gods who manifested the Holy Stone. Moreover, I also know about your celebration at Tianyu Academy.
At the meeting, the first new college to win five consecutive victories became the first one to enter the college." King Rui looked at Zhong Chi with admiration, as if he had long wanted to make friends with Zhong Chi.
"Prince Rui is too polite. I am just a junior. When Prince Rui made the Yu clan famous, I was not there yet!" Zhong Chi said politely and modestly. At this moment, all his thoughts were on why the Yu Emperor sent so many guards here.
.
Although Zhong Chi was granted the title of Marquis, Emperor Yu would give him a team of guards to show his status. However, Zhong Chi saw as many as a thousand guards outside. For each of the people who made the title of Marquis, the maximum number of guards he would be rewarded was a hundred people.
, it will definitely not reach the outrageous number of thousands of people.
"Come, let me introduce these two generals to you first!" King Rui said, introducing the two generals beside him to Zhong Chi.
"This is General Peng Yue. He has experienced hundreds of battles and has outstanding military exploits. He is a rare general in our Yu clan who is good at fighting." King Rui pointed to General Peng Yue on the left and said.
"I have met Marquis Jingyu!" General Peng Yue murmured. He was not as kind as Prince Rui. As a general, Peng Yue had tens of thousands of guards under his command. Although his official rank was lower than Zhong Chi's, his actual power was higher.
There are many, and he is only controlled by His Majesty the Emperor Yu.
Zhong Chi didn't care, nodded and said: "General Peng Yue!"
Prince Rui said with a smile: "Soldiers are all like this. It is inevitable that they are not good at words. Don't worry about it, Marquis Jingyu."
Zhong Chi smiled and said he wouldn't care. Then King Rui introduced another general. This general was Peng Yue's deputy, named General Tuoba.
After the introduction, King Rui dismissed Meng Helu. Before Meng Helu left, he also congratulated Zhong Chi. Obviously, he did not expect that Zhong Chi would directly become Jingyu Hou.
After Meng Helu went down, he immediately told Lei Zhuyuan and Lei Jin's grandson the good news. He also asked Lei Zhuyuan to say a few kind words in front of Zhong Chi to support Meng Helu.
After Meng Helu went down, only Zhong Chi, King Rui and the two generals were left in the hall. King Rui immediately had a flash of inspiration and set up a spiritual barrier in the hall, and his expression changed.
Becoming more rigorous.
"Jingyu Hou, you must be wondering why there are so many guards outside!" King Rui said.
Zhong Chi nodded, finally getting to the point.
"To tell you the truth, there are a hundred people outside this hall who are the personal guards given to you by His Majesty the Emperor Yu. I will hand them over to you later. In addition, the number of guards arriving from the entire Meng City has reached five thousand.
, there will be more in the future, and General Peng Yue's 30,000 personal soldiers will come to Mengcheng to build military defense." King Rui told the truth.
Zhong Chi's expression changed. No wonder two generals were coming. They were going to fight, and it looked like they were in Mengcheng. This reminded Zhong Chi that the King of War had led his troops to fight not long ago.
"What happened? Is there an alien race that wants to attack Mengcheng?" Zhong Chi asked doubtfully.
"Mengcheng? There are 980 cities on the border of our Yu clan, and most of them have been attacked by the remnants of the Moon God Sect in the past two days." Peng Yue said coldly, with murderous intent and fighting spirit.
abundant.
"Half of the border city was attacked? The Moon God Sect?" Zhong Chi's expression changed, and he finally understood what Ying Falcon meant seven days ago.
"That's right!" King Rui continued: "His Majesty Yu Huang ordered you to assist me in garrisoning Mengcheng on the spot and not letting the Moon God Sect's people step even half a step across Mengcheng."
"Yes!" Zhong Chi heard the words and immediately accepted the order. To be honest, since Zhong Chi knew that the Moon God Sect was invading the Yu Clan, as a member of the Yu Clan, he would not hesitate to stand up. What's more, most of Mengcheng's attacks
The people are the criminals who escaped from the Zhong family dungeon.
"Okay, I have said everything that needs to be said. Now I will give you one hundred of your soldiers and prepare well. People from the Moon God Sect may launch an attack on our city at any time. At night, I am looking for
Come and discuss strategies to deal with the enemy." After King Rui said that, he removed the spiritual shield.
"Xiaoqing, come in and pay homage to your master, Marquis Jingyu!" Prince Rui smiled and shouted towards the outside, and suddenly he saw a woman wearing armor walking in.
It must be said that this woman named Xiaoqing is as beautiful as a flower. She doesn't look too old. She is wearing a suit of armor, but she has a masculine beauty.
"Xiaoqing leads one hundred Jingyu troops to pay homage to Marquis Jingyu!" After Xiaoqing came in, he was followed by two long guard teams, including Xiaoqing, a total of one hundred and one people. And the name of this Jingyu army is obvious.
It was also specially arranged by Emperor Yu, and Xiaoqing was the commander-in-chief of the Jingyu Army.
When Zhong Chi saw Du Xiaoqing, he was really shocked. He didn't expect that there were women joining the army and wearing armor. Zhong Chi didn't pay attention. At this moment, King Rui kept observing the changes in Zhong Chi's expression.
Seeing Zhong Chi's slightly stunned expression, he was secretly happy in his heart. This Xiaoqing was the female capital queen specially selected by Yuhuang for Zhong Chi. King Rui understood what Yuhuang meant. Xiaoqing was not only the Yuhuang
The eyes placed next to Zhong Chi are also chess pieces used to comfort Zhong Chi.
"Jingyuhou, are you satisfied with Xiaoqing Dutong? Are you satisfied with Jingyujun?" Prince Rui looked at Zhong Chi with a smile.
Zhong Chi nodded and said: "Satisfied, satisfied. Thank you so much for His Majesty the Yu Emperor's love. I, Zhong Chi, will dedicate my life to the Yu Clan!"
"Okay, okay, okay!" King Rui laughed and said, "If His Majesty Yu Huang knew what you said, he would definitely be happy. It's not in vain that His Majesty specially selected these one hundred Jingyu troops for you!"
"Prince Rui, if there is nothing else, I will go down first." Zhong Chi looked at Prince Rui. Obviously, the highest commander in Mengcheng today is Prince Rui, and Zhong Chi is nominally assisting Prince Rui.
Deputy.
As for the two generals, they were obviously the commanders who charged into battle and led their troops to defend against the enemy. Zhong Chi stayed in Mengcheng, appearing to be the prestigious Marquis Jingyu, but in fact he had no real power at all.
"Jingyu Marquis, you go and do your work first. You must make good arrangements for these Jingyu troops. In the evening, I will ask someone to invite you to come over and discuss strategies to defend against the enemy." From the beginning to the end, King Rui looked kind.
The slightest bit of airs made Zhong Chi feel much better than the Zhu King.
After Zhong Chi heard this, he led Jing Yujun and others towards Xiyuan where Zhong Chi lived before.
"Master Hou, how do you arrange for us?" When arriving at Xiyuan, Xiaoqing asked Zhong Chi.
Zhong Chi hesitated for a moment, looked at Xiyuan, and saw that there were many empty rooms, and then said: "Xiaoqing, you can make your own arrangements and let everyone live in Xiyuan for the time being and wait for my disposal!"
Zhong Chi received the title of Marquis Jingyu. So far, he has no mansion or territory of his own. Apart from one title, he only has the hundred personal guards in front of him. Speaking of which, he is the poorest marquis.
.
"Yes, Lord Marquis!" Xiaoqing immediately accepted the order and arranged for hundreds of people to stay in Xiyuan one by one.
Just as Zhong Chi was about to walk towards his room, Xiaoqing followed him immediately. Zhong Chi was slightly startled and said, "Why are you following me?"
"Master Hou, in addition to being the commander of the Jingyu Army, I am also the personal bodyguard of the Marquis. Except when the Marquis changes clothes and goes to bed, I have to protect the Marquis personally." Xiao Qing said matter-of-factly.
"Ah!" Zhong Chi was stunned, and then he remembered why every prince was always accompanied by one or even several silent personal guards.
