The dignity of the state is greater than anything else, this is something that every emperor knows well, and it will always be regarded as an iron law.

Especially at this special time, the dignified prince was arrested, and the second prince, King Huan, did not win on the battlefield in the west, and now the mood of the Manchu Dynasty seems to have fallen a lot.

Then, the more at this moment, the more we have to make a few things to strengthen morale, and the matter of the Udong Kingdom is an excellent opportunity.

In the emperor's view, the land of China is vast and capable, even if there are no masters on the rivers and lakes, just the Praetorian Guards in the palace and those imperial guards are enough to deal with those small countries.

Just for the sake of safety, the emperor still decided to let people go to Jin Chi, of course, he didn't expect Chi Zhongtian, but he thought that Chi Zhongtian had already left the capital.

On this day, as soon as the time arrived, the back garden of the palace was very lively, a large number of palace maids and eunuchs were running back and forth, there was a large open space in the back garden, which was originally a small hunting ground, but now it has been all cleaned up, and a lot of chairs and tables were placed around it, which were provided for the emperor and ministers.

In order to build momentum, the emperor deliberately asked several princes and important ministers in the court to watch, such as King Zun, King De, and Yongmen Zhen, all of whom were among them.

Not long after, a row of chairs was placed in front of the open space, and in the center, a small area was set aside for a dragon chair, and in front of the right side of the dragon chair, there were also a few small chairs, which were for those envoys.

In order to show humility and courtesy, when foreign envoys come, whether it is the arrangement of seats or the treatment they enjoy, they must temporarily be higher than all the ministers, which is also a gesture to show the virtue of the Celestial Empire.

After everything was put in order, these palace maids and eunuchs quickly left the place, and a few of them seemed to be led by these people, and when everyone left, they kept looking around, for fear that something would be missed.

At this moment, a general in armor walked towards here with a dozen Praetorian Guards.

"Mr. Xu. ”

"General Dragon!"

This general is none other than the commander of the Praetorian Guard, Long Yun.

"Manager Xu, the Holy Lord let me take a look, are you ready?"

A delicate-faced eunuch replied in a sharp voice: "General Long, don't worry, it's all cleaned up." ”

"Well, come on, search this place carefully!"

As soon as Long Yun gave the order, the guards behind him began to patrol around in an orderly manner.

For this competition, the emperor attaches great importance to it, and from morning to now, I don't know how many people have been sent back and forth.

Half an hour later, some people began to come in the back garden one after another.

First of all, it was Jin Chi, and some disciples of Yanyuntang, Gu Shenfeng and Guo Heyang, they did not come.

The one who came in with Jin Chi was the commander of the imperial guards, Xu Huoyang.

Xu Huoyang is the first master of the palace and the emperor's most trusted guard, Xu Huoyang is not only superb in martial arts, but also thoughtful, no matter how big or small, and has a high prestige in the court.

Earlier, Xu Huoyang had also studied under Yanyun Hall, and Gu Shenfeng had taught him a lot of martial arts, so Xu Huoyang could be regarded as half of Yanyuntang's disciple.

It is precisely because of this relationship that Xu Huoyang is extremely polite to Jin Chi, and his words are full of humility.

"Master Jin, the emperor may not come for a while, you just wait here, that seat is arranged for you. ”

Xu Huoyang said as he pointed forward with his hand, only to see that in the row of seats in front of him, there was some vacant space near the seat on the far right, which was obviously for those disciples of Jin Chi to stand on.

"Thank you, thank you, Commander Xu has worked hard. Although Xu Huoyang was very polite to Yanyuntang, Jin Chi couldn't take it too seriously.

"Haha, Master Jin, you don't have to be polite with me, Gu Lao taught me a lot back then, if I hadn't practiced in Yanyun Hall for a while, I'm afraid that by now, I would have been able to do a few three-legged cat kung fu. Xu Huoyang said politely.

"Where, where, Commander Xu is too humble. Jin Chi hurriedly responded politely.

"This time, the whole court is relying on the head of Jin to fight for our face, teach those people of Fanbang a good lesson, and let them know what a real master is!"

Xu Huoyang's words seem to be really touting Jin Chi, but in fact he is giving him a dose of fierce medicine, which is also specially instructed by the emperor, first take the words to praise Jin Chi high, and if Jin Chi dares to fall down, he will fall very badly.

Jin Chiyan didn't know, although his heart was also up and down, but he could only respond and say: "Do your best, do your best!" However, I think with the martial arts of Commander Xu, can't I subdue those people?"

Jin Chi can be regarded as an old treacherous and cunning, and by the way, he has to knock Xu Huoyang.

Xu Huoyang smiled, then waved his hand and said: "I can't do it, I can't do this kung fu, I can't get on the stage, this is not a joke, if I lose in front of the emperor and in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, I'm afraid my head will move." ”

Jin Chi wanted to give Xu Huoyang a few words, but he didn't expect Xu Huoyang to give Jin Chi another dose of fierce medicine, and it was even more fierce than just now, and the words of moving his head came out, which scared people to death.

Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Jin Chi's face immediately changed.

Xu Huoyang didn't know if it was intentional, and immediately said: "Master Jin, don't take it to heart, I'm just talking about playing, haha." ”

"Hehe" What can Jin Chi say? There is no choice but to laugh dryly.

"Oh, Commander Xu is out, it seems that we can have a good eye today. ”

As he spoke, several more people walked behind him, and one of them, a burly, bearded man, shouted in a very rough voice.

Jin Chi turned his head and couldn't help laughing, this person was the deputy commander of the imperial guard, Sun Dian.

Everyone in the court knows that Sun Dian and Xu Huoyang have never gotten along, and in terms of martial arts, Sun Dian is naturally not comparable to Xu Huoyang, but Sun Dian has an advantage that Xu Huoyang can never compare, that is, Sun Dian's sister, is a concubine of the emperor, Concubine Lian.

Because of this relationship, the emperor is happy to pair the two of them, and if the two don't get along, the emperor can better control them.

Of course, Xu Huoyang wouldn't say something unpleasant in front of outsiders, so he smiled and said, "Haha, I don't dare to be ugly, I don't need to introduce this one." ”

"That's that, those who practice martial arts in the capital, who dares not to know Jin Chi Jin's master!" Sun Dian bowed to Jin Chi and bowed.

Jin Chi hurriedly returned the salute: "Don't dare, don't dare, Commander Sun is polite." ”
