On the west side of the palace, on the school grounds.
A large number of guards were gathering, and Baihu Xu Yu stood at the front of the group. His expression was particularly solemn at this moment.
About half a minute later, no one else joined the team in front of him, and it was obvious that everyone was already here.
"Everyone has..."
"stand at attention!"
Following Xu Yu's order, a uniform voice sounded on the scene, and all the guards stood in order.
The scene was silent, and the guards' eyes were all focused on Xu Yu.
Holding down the saber with one hand, Xu Yu glanced at his subordinates and said: "Today, calling you here is a great thing!"
What a great thing? Everyone at the scene was muttering in their hearts, and they all speculated about what a good thing it was.
"You must also know that the brothers who came back from Liaoping this time have been given the power of divine martial arts for the second time..."
The guards present did know about this matter. This kind of information could not be concealed, let alone no one concealed it at all.
After being given the power of divine martial arts for the second time, his personal martial arts value will reach a big level. This is also known to everyone present.
"Today, Your Majesty's grace will grant us divine power!"
The scene was already quiet. Among the guards, huge waves were already stirring in their hearts. Who could not be excited by such good news?
Just as Xu Yu was saying this, he heard the sound of neat footsteps coming from the east side of the school grounds, but it was Zhang Meng who came with the soldiers from the front guard.
The sonorous and powerful footsteps are enough to tell that this is a strong army, but the number is only fifty.
Soon, Zhang Meng led his guards to the center of the school ground and stood next to Xu Yu and his party.
The soldiers in the front guard of the palace were still stepping forward, raising a huge amount of smoke and dust on the spot, while the guards beside them were indifferent.
"Settled...decided!"
With a "pop" sound, the sound stopped abruptly.
The scene was quiet. A few minutes later, a sedan chair came from the west, and it was Zhao Yanxun who was sitting on it.
There was a high platform in front of the team. Zhao Yanxun's sedan chair was parked on one side, and he himself walked up the steps.
Xu Yu and Zhang Meng looked at each other, then saluted and said: "Kowtow to the prince!"
As the two of them knelt down, all the guards on the scene knelt down, and then shouted: "Kowtow to the prince!"
"No gift!"
After hearing this, all the guards stood up.
"I called you here today to give you the second divine power..."
Good guy, after confirming the news from Zhao Yanxun, the guards present felt more at ease and couldn't restrain the joy on their faces.
When they saw Zhao Yanxun taking the saber handed by Huo An, Xu Yu and others knew that this was about to begin, and they heard him yell: "Kneel down!"
The guards all knelt down, waiting for Zhao Yanxun to bestow him with divine power.
I saw Zhao Yanxun holding a knife and walking down the steps step by step, his expression majestic and solemn.
Zhao Yanxun was the first to walk up to Xu Yu, holding the scabbard and placing it on his shoulder, and then said: "Give you the power of martial arts, and follow you to bring peace to the troubled world..."
Feeling the power being poured into his body, Xu Yu was deeply shaken. He knew better than anyone else, "My lord... thank you for your kindness!"
Next came Zhang Meng, and then one guard after another.
Words of gratitude to Zhao Yanxun filled the scene one after another.
Far away from the school grounds, Zhang Ziming stood with his hands on his waist and looked at the situation inside.
At this moment, his face was bruised and his clothes were torn. It was obvious that he had been beaten severely just now.
Thanks to his good luck, he made too much noise when being chased and was discovered by the patrolling policemen, so he was quickly rescued.
Otherwise, he might die today.
At this moment, the guards were seen worshiping Zhao Yanxun again. This kind of situation can be seen at any time.
Only then did Zhang Ziming understand that as long as he was under the rule of Prince Yong's Mansion, both military and civilian officials respected and loved Zhao Yanxun.
Looking at the guards guarding the side, Zhang Ziming asked: "Brother, what is your highness doing again?"
This guard was one of Chen Yuhe's men. He knew very well that Zhang Ziming was valued by Zhao Yanxun, so he simply replied: "The prince is giving them the second divine power!"
Zhang Ziming had heard the word "divine power" many times, and even inquired about its effects.
The effectiveness of this divine power is indeed incredible.
"Brother, is this magical power... really so powerful?" Zhang Ziming asked.
"It's very powerful. For example, I have been granted divine martial strength twice. Not only am I much stronger, but my physical strength is also much stronger!"
After saying that, the guard rolled up his sleeves and showed off his muscles.
Seeing that Zhang Ziming still showed his face and waved, the guard stretched out his hand and said: "Come, let's try our strength!"
Zhang Ziming stretched out his hand, and his strength was not weak.
The two held each other's hands and then slowly exerted their strength. After all, this was not a life and death battle.
It was okay at first, but as time went on, Zhang Ziming couldn't stand it anymore, and finally he just said stop.
"How can I get the divine power granted by His Highness?" Zhang Ziming asked the most critical question.
But the guard smiled and said: "The whole army, thousands of people... are all thinking about this matter!"
While Zhang Ziming was chatting with the guard, Zhao Yanxun on the other side had completed his work and all the soldiers had been upgraded by him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" The crowd shouted again.
"No gift!"
Walking to the carriage, Zhao Yanxun continued: "Just do whatever you have to do!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
When Zhao Yanxun's sedan chair just landed in front of Jinshen Hall, he saw Xu Yu and a dozen people following him from behind.
Arriving ten feet away from Zhao Yanxun, Xu Yu and others all knelt down.
"What are you doing?"
"Your Majesty, I came here to plead guilty!" Xu Yu replied.
"Because I was not strict with my subordinates, a spy got into the palace. Please punish me!"
Xu Yu was accompanied by the general flag officer in charge that day, as well as the punished minor flag officers and guards.
Although they have been punished, they have not yet apologized, so they decided to settle the matter in the school grounds today.
Asking for forgiveness in front of so many people is enough to show their sincerity.
But they did not expect that Zhao Yanxun would leave directly after the upgrade, so they could only drive him to Jinshen Palace.
Standing on the steps in front of Jinshen Hall, Zhao Yanxun looked down at the crowd and said, "It's good to know your guilt. The guards of the palace have important responsibilities. You must be careful in the future!"
"Your Majesty's teachings, please remember them!" Xu Yu kowtowed, and then said: "Please punish me, Your Majesty!"
"I have already punished you, so why should I be punished?" Zhao Yanxun said calmly.
"In two days, you and I will go south to replace Wang Zong and Liu Enfu..."
"If you really feel guilty, then kill more monsters and rescue more people. In this way... you will not betray my king's trust!"
Having said this, Zhao Yanxun stopped talking nonsense and turned around and walked up the steps.
"I wait... I thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
As Xu Yu shouted, all the guards behind him kowtowed: "Kowtow to thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
