Walking on the edge of life and death all year round, the temperament exuded by Xue Yun is as biting as the harsh winter.
Prince Gong, who was in a high position, felt on pins and needles on the spot, and his expression turned extremely ugly.
There is no need to use the force field at all, it is enough to frighten ordinary people like Prince Gong to the point of trembling.
In fact, Xue Yun also had his own ideas as to why he chose to stay here temporarily.
The capital of Daxia lies at the feet of the undisputed emperor.
The forces of all parties are entrenched, and the complicated situation is really confusing.
Xue Yun has reason to believe that in addition to local dignitaries and royal families, there may be spies from all over the world lurking in this fortress city.
If you stay in a hotel, you will inevitably be noticed by these guys.
Although you are not necessarily afraid of them, it is not a good thing to cause trouble.
Just two weeks.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, this "Xuanyuan Palace" standing in the city center will undoubtedly be an excellent haven.
after all.
This is a place used by the royal family to house idle clan members. The related security work and supporting facilities are many times better than those of hotels outside.
If he could stay here, it would save Xue Yun a lot of trouble.
"Protect, Lord Protector calm down..."
He raised his hand to wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead.
Prince Gong was hesitant and hesitated for a moment. Then he waved his hand and shouted angrily at the maids and servants in the hall: "You bunch of dog slaves, do you have any eyesight? I and the Protector have important matters to discuss."
, hurry up and get out!"
The words just fell.
All the maids and servants were startled.
He quickly rolled around like a bird and beast and dispersed on the ground, not daring to touch the trouble of this ridiculous prince.
After half a while.
In the huge hall, there were only three people left looking at each other.
At a glance, we could see the clues. Prince Gong deliberately dismissed the servants in the mansion in order to save his face.
Xue Yun lifted his chin, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Your Highness, can you speak now?"
"well......"
He let out a long sigh with a painful expression.
Prince Gong smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that I don't want to take you two in, it's just that the rules of our ancestors are here, and I really don't dare to mess around..."
After some explanation.
Only then did Xue Yun understand the other party's difficulties.
According to the rules of the Great Xia Empire, except for some of the idle royal family who will be sent to take charge elsewhere, those who remain in the imperial capital must live collectively in the "Prince Xuanyuan's Mansion".
This also includes the late emperor's widows and concubines, as well as descendants of politically marginalized people.
These royal women have no real power in their hands.
But he has to abide by his duty for the Xuanyuan royal family. To put it bluntly, he has to stay in this palace for the rest of his life. There is no freedom at all and he has to be a widow for the rest of his life.
"So, in order to preserve the chastity of the widows and concubines of the past emperors, no man without royal blood can stay in the "Prince Xuanyuan's Mansion" overnight..."
Spread your hands.
Prince Gong said helplessly: "Even I, the king, have no right to break this rule."
Hear the words.
Xue Yun and Wang Defa were stunned.
In other words, this huge royal palace is actually a hierarchical cage.
In addition to being the residence of the idle royal descendants, it is also a huge prison used to imprison those women who have been abandoned by the royal family!
"its not right!"
With his mouth filled with all kinds of delicacies, Wang Defa said vaguely with a puzzled expression: "Those servants just now, and the guards responsible for security work... aren't they all men?!"
"They...are different."
He looked at the two of them meaningfully.
Prince Gong chuckled softly and said: "These servants and guards are all low-class people who were carefully selected to confirm the innocence of their family backgrounds and then executed the castration. Even if they want to torment them, they are powerless...
....”
"Castal punishment?"
He raised his hand to wipe away the oil stains at the corners of his mouth.
Wang Defa asked with confusion on his face: "What is that?"
Pointing at the bald man's crotch, which has a wide open door.
Xue Yun made a scissor-hand movement with a profound expression and suddenly joined his fingers.
hiss......
Instantly I felt a cold wind blowing under my crotch.
Wang Defa looked astonished, clenched his legs in sympathy, and couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
"So, that's what happened..."
Prince Gong shook his head and said: "I dare not disobey the rules of our ancestors. Lord Protector should find a hotel to stay in the city. At worst, I will pay for the expenses."
Living in the post-apocalyptic wasteland era.
The life, death and fate of the people at the bottom are so unbearable. Both their body and consciousness are just tools used by those in power to consolidate their status.
The inherently deformed social system makes almost no sense.
"I really can't get used to staying in hotels or anything like that..."
Put down the crystal cup in your hand.
Xue Yun raised his head and looked at Prince Ridiculous, and suggested: "Let's just do this. Prince will temporarily arrange for the two of us to stay in the name of recruiting guards. This way, no one will make irresponsible remarks."
"No!"
He quickly covered the sensitive part. Wang Defa looked horrified and suddenly shouted: "Doesn't that mean it has to be cut off too?!"
The entire hall suddenly fell silent.
Xue Yun and Prince Gong were speechless, and their foreheads were covered with black lines.
"Cut your brother-in-law..."
He raised his eyebrows.
Xue Yun couldn't help but joked: "What, are you looking forward to it?"
Shrinking his neck, Wang Defa touched his bare forehead and simply turned around to deal with the food on the table again, no longer intervening in the conversation between the two.
"My lord, you understand."
Grinning.
Xue Yun reminded in a deep voice: "It's just a matter of procedure. In your capacity, it shouldn't be difficult to add two more guards here."
Sometimes, rules are meant to be broken.
For Prince Gong, what really embarrassed him was that he didn't have a reasonable explanation.
Pretending to recruit two new guards on the grounds that the defense force is insufficient, such a trivial matter will not arouse anyone's suspicion and suspicion at all.
As for the so-called castration, of course it can be fooled.
No matter how hungry Xue Yun and Wang Defa were, they could not be tempted by the women left behind by the late emperor.
"Two weeks..."
Seeing that the other party still had a troubled expression.
Xue Yun stretched out two fingers and continued to emphasize: "I promise you, in two weeks, my men and I will leave the imperial city immediately and will never cause any trouble to you, the prince!"
Thought for a moment.
Noticing the sharp look between Xue Yun's brows, Prince Gong's shoulders trembled suddenly. Thinking of the various methods used by the other party in the past, he immediately felt a little frightened.
"That's all..."
He kept smiling bitterly.
Prince Gong reluctantly said: "This time, it should be regarded as repaying the Lord Protector for his great kindness to me in the Ocean Federation."
