Two days later, the most lively National Day of the Zhao Kingdom arrived. The entire empire was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, looking very happy. The residents in the imperial capital lined up very early and walked towards the imperial capital city. Because on the celebration day, they would see
The greatest emperor in the empire, Lord Jiaozheng of the Holy See of Light, and seventh-level great magician—Zhao Kuangyi!
Very early on, the guards in the imperial capital began to be busy. They were responsible for the security of the entire celebration day, arranging the entrance of the nobles during the entire celebration day, and all matters related to the princes and nobles. Of course, they also had to guard against miscreants.
Because the celebration day is also the day of the empire's disaster, they remember all this.
Thirty years ago, the celebration day was a grand day of bloodshed. At that time, the people of the entire imperial capital were frightened. Thousands of troops in the imperial capital suppressed the rebellion. At that time, a legendary family
, the Xiang family started a rebellion, but was finally suppressed by the empire's iron-blooded army.
Now, thirty years later, there is a grand celebration day that happens once every ten years. Maybe today is also a disaster day!
The guards were wearing shiny armors and were fully armed. The weapons in their hands shone with cold light. The red cloaks behind them did not know whether they were festive or bloody. These guards rushed to the various city gates of the imperial capital. The gates were the aristocratic army.
The only place to enter the imperial capital and to guard the four city gates is the best way to prevent foreign invaders from flooding into the imperial capital.
Du Cheng, this strong martial soul, is also a member of the Holy Knights of the Holy See of Light. He was very dedicated to his duties that day. In the hot summer, he wiped away the beads of sweat on his forehead. He frowned and commanded the army, so that
These guards were spread out, and almost every street and alley was guarded by the imperial army.
Especially on Tianhe Street, the army that leads to the Imperial Capital Square is even more terrifying in number. They are almost covered on both sides of the street. Every warrior soldier is at least a strong person close to the martial spirit. This elite group
The troops must number at least 10,000 people. Fortunately, the square of the imperial capital is not crowded, so there are enough places for these soldiers to form an array here.
Du Cheng has been appointed as the supreme commander of the entire Imperial City Guard! This news came out yesterday. When this news came out, many people realized that there were some problems, and it was even a bad signal. Du Cheng was just a member of the Imperial City Guard.
As an officer, the entire imperial capital’s guard was entrusted to him? What if a war broke out? How could a small guard like him resist thousands of troops? This was obviously an extremely wrong decision, and many ministers learned from it.
But what was the result? The old emperor Zhao Kuangyi gave him a strong reprimand, and those who violated the king's order would be killed without mercy.
The unanimous opinion of the ministers is that the old emperor is really dizzy, and it seems that his reign will end with this celebration day.
As a result, many ministers fell in love with Zhao She. The eldest prince was very shrewd and talented. Sooner or later he would lead the empire!
In the Zhao Mansion, Zhao Feiyan was dressed in a rich dress. As the princess of the Zhao Kingdom, it was natural that she had to arrange her face well for such a grand festival. She was lightly painted with pink and white, with clear ripples of green flowers, and the youthful atmosphere of a girl.
Xiang Tianci, who was watching from the sidelines, was in a daze because of Guo Qingcheng's appearance. He couldn't help but recall every moment he had with this woman. There seemed to be a trace of tenderness between his fingers.
The housekeeper Li Yue of the Zhao Mansion can be said to be a loyal old servant. He cares about Zhao Feiyan's affairs and is loyal to her. The old housekeeper was the first to serve, and then he went to the private army behind the mansion. Now the private servant
The commander of the army, Li Ke, has gathered the troops and horses and is waiting for the master's orders at any time.
Another army from the Zhao family also hurriedly arrived. This army was a powerful general recovered by Zhao Feiyan. Liu Dehai, the officer who killed the legion in the bloody battle, was a figure in the main battle legion of the empire. He was dressed in military uniform, which made this man full of vitality.
.
Liu Dehai currently only has more than 3,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. These are Liu Dehai's direct troops. Needless to say, the combat effectiveness is definitely not worse than these family soldiers. Even the momentum of the 3,000 soldiers and horses overwhelms the Zhao family's family soldiers.
A stall under Liu Dehai gave him the information. Now, seeing Li Yue in the Zhao Mansion, the general also told Li Yue about the situation of the defenders outside.
"Steward Li, martial law is now in the Imperial Capital. The leader is Du Cheng from the Third Regiment of the Guards. The four gates of the Imperial Capital are heavily guarded. And on the Tianhe Street of the Imperial Capital, there are more than 10,000 elite troops guarding them. These soldiers
The weakest one is also a fourth-level martial artist!"
Li Yue felt something strange when he heard it, and subconsciously felt that something was wrong.
"Ducheng? How can a guard officer of the imperial capital be the commander-in-chief? What ability does Du Cheng have? Aren't all the generals of the main battle legions in the imperial capital gone back? Why not let the generals of the main battle legions lead the team? A little
The commander-in-chief of the guard army, whose idea was this?" Li Yue murmured.
"Steward Li, King Zhao is old, and it is inevitable that he will be a little impulsive! This Du Cheng was once a member of the Holy Knights of the Holy See of Light, and King Zhao was the orthodoxy. Maybe it was because of this that Du Cheng became the commander-in-chief of the guard army.
King Zhao is old, so being close to people will make him feel more at ease!" Li Dehai is still clear about King Zhao's affairs, otherwise, he would not be able to become the leader of the main battle legion, which is a high-power job.
After hearing this, Li Yue felt his heart sinking. As for why he felt this way, he didn't know clearly. Could it be that he was thinking too much? He shook his head and inspected the army. Li Yue explained to the two of them.
After that, he returned to Zhao's house.
At this time, Zhao Feiyan had finished dressing up and was chatting and laughing with Xiang Tianci in the room. She had a relaxed look on her face, as if everything was under her control.
"Miss, everything is ready!" Li Yue called Zhao Feiyan "Miss" in private, which is enough to show that the relationship between the two is extraordinary.
"Okay, thank you, Butler Li." A smile appeared on Zhao Feiyan's face, "Then let's go to the Imperial Capital now. I believe a good show is about to start, and we will just go and join in the fun."
Li Yue nodded, "Miss, I have no chance to go with you on such a big festival, so I have to work with you, Mr. Xiang." Li Yue said to Xiang Tianci, "Mr. Xiang, you are the fiancé of the young lady. It is important to protect the young lady.
I'll help you." Li Yue said sincerely.
Xiang Tianci nodded. After all, Zhao Feiyan is also the girl he likes. To protect her, Xiang Tianci will take good care of her even if others don't tell her.
Urgan and Ge Chen, who came with Xiang Tianci, were already in the private army at this time, and they had some big things to do later.
