I can't die!I haven't ruled the world yet!

Chapter 157 The walls really have ears, so don’t look at them

"I, Lao Xiao, have lived for more than thirty years. I have always cut off every one I see. No one has escaped from my hands. You are the first. I am willing to admit defeat. You will be the commander of the forbidden army!"

Xiao Lian waved his hand and looked away.

"...?"

Rong Cen looked at him slightly suspiciously.

No, brother, you took the initiative to expose your identity so carelessly? Besides Jiang Yun, there are other people here who can hear me, brother!
Yuan San didn't take the official position of commander of the imperial army seriously and did not respond.

It was just a small competition and it was not a killing activity, so he was not very interested. After it was over, he flew away and disappeared from where he was.

Jiang Yun opened and closed the folding fan and reminded: "Be careful that the partition wall has ears."

The strong enemy left, and Xiao Lian's confidence returned. He waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, as long as you have your ears cut off."

In the early stage, they worked together to eliminate corrupt officials in the southern border, rectify the local customs, and saw through the conspiracy of the Marquis of Chengde. Various incidents accumulated friendship.

Xiao Lian, who had been involved in the martial arts world in his early years, valued loyalty the most, so he did not regard Jiang Yun as an outsider.

He turned the topic back to just now and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, the rules of the Dragon Guard have always been those who follow them. In the past, I, Xiao Xingba, defeated the boss at that time and replaced him, and became the leader of the Dragon Guard. "

"Later, when the old witch forced her into the palace, I, Old Xiao, slaughtered all the rebellious Forbidden Army, and recommended myself as the commander of the Imperial City's Forbidden Army based on my merits. But today, I, Old Xiao, suffered a disastrous defeat. Xiao Lian was born in the Dragon Guard, and until his death, he never Don’t break the rules of the Dragon Guard.”

He clasped his hands in fists and shook off his cultural baggage. "The commander of the imperial army is responsible for guarding the key points of the imperial city. He should be the one who can do it."

"Your Majesty, Xiao Lian has resigned from office, and is willing to follow you as a dragon guard from now on. I don't seek fame, wealth, or money from an official position, I just want to protect your safety!" He knelt down on one knee and said solemnly: "Xiao Lian , is always a sharp sword in your hand!”

"This……"

If it were someone else like this, it would be somewhat confusing to Rong Cen. But she didn't find it strange when it came to Xiao Lian. After all, from the beginning, he was only focused on climbing up the ranks and only vaguely wanted to be the commander of the Forbidden Army.

The dragon guards have strict management, but to Xiao Lian's level, he is actually free. So now that he is resigning because he doesn't want to be restrained, Rong Cen thinks it's too normal.

But the problem is, if Xiao Lian quits, who will fill the vacancy of the commander of the Forbidden Army?
Rong Cen's head is very big.

"Your Majesty, I can recommend someone." Xiao Lian was really well prepared. He took out a booklet from his chest and presented it to Rong Cen.

When you open it, you will see a picture that looks very different.

"Is this a portrait?" Jiang Yun leaned his head over.

In order to accommodate Rong Cen's figure, he bent over and his left shoulder was inadvertently touching her, exceeding the normal social distance.

As he spoke, Rong Cen could feel the other person's warm breath spraying on the back of his neck, like dog's tail grass brushing against the tip of his heart, causing the slightest itch.

"I drew it." Xiao Lian was not embarrassed at all, he was full of confidence, "How is it? Is it very realistic?"

Rong Cen didn't dare to compliment him, fearing that he would become inflated.

She turned back a few pages and wrote about this person's life story. From Xiao Lian's dog-like handwriting, I could barely tell who it was.

"Yan Wuxie? Do you know him?" After seeing Xiao Lian nodding in confirmation, Rong Cen closed the book and returned it to him without looking for trouble.

"He and I were old friends. I had no one at home, so I was adopted by the Dragon Guard Master. His parents are still alive, but they are poor and helpless. He practiced martial arts since he was a child so as not to be bullied."

Rong Cen knew all this. Before the imperial examination, she went to Xin Yuan Zhong to investigate all these people.

But she didn't expect that Xiao Lian and Yan Wuxie would meet each other.

Rong Cen pointed to the booklet and said, "Xiao Lian, when did you collect these?"

"After looking for Yue He." Earlier, Rong Zhu sent news that Emperor Xilin Yuezhao was seriously ill and was looking for his youngest daughter in private. There were signs of passing the throne on his deathbed. Rong Cen asked him to strike first and bring Yue He back to Xilin to see Yue Zhao.

Xiao Lian was very efficient in his work. He traveled to the seven plains of Xilin, the twenty-three cities of Nanxun, and the nineteen states of Dayin, and finally found the person in Liangzhou, the western border of Dayin.

Yue He had long heard about the deeds of the new Emperor Dayin and regarded Rong Cen as his idol. Because of the token, Yue He trusted Xiao Lian and told him the truth. Yue Zhao was deliberately spreading false news to lure the snake out of its hole. There was no need to take it seriously.

Xiao Lian hurriedly returned to Beijing to resume his duties. He had just arrived last night. Today, the number one scholar is parading through the streets, and he probably doesn't even know who the protagonist is.

"Yan Wuxie is the fifth new scholar." Rong Cen pointed out the window, "Do you know he is so powerful?"

The first time she saw Yan Wuxie's exam paper, she felt familiar.

Until they met during the imperial examination, Rong Cen felt that he had discovered a dusty pearl.

Yan Wuxie is as confident, fearless, outspoken and crazy as Xiao Lian. The arrogant but not arrogant tone and demeanor when speaking are exactly the same.

"He? Yan Wuxie? Participated in the imperial examination? Ranked fifth as a Jinshi?"

Xiao Lian's jaw dropped.

Obviously, he didn't know his old friend was so powerful.

too strong! He couldn't read before? After leaving, he went to private school secretly? Is this called "If you don't make a sound, it will be a blockbuster"?

The expressions on Xiao Lian's face were colorful.

"There are many civil servants in the court, and I am worried about where to put him." Rong Cen touched his chin and thought: "Since you believe in his military power, let him try to see if he is qualified. Commander of the Imperial Guard."

This was the final word, Xiao Lian was allowed to resign and Yan Wuxie took over.

Xiao Lian no longer cared about the shocking Yan Wuxie's cultural level. He was extremely happy when His Majesty said this.

When he was the commander of the imperial army, he guarded the imperial city gate every day. He had no freedom at all. He had to check people's eyes when entering and leaving for routine inspections.

Xiao Lian had long been fed up with his anger, so after fighting Yuan San and being brutally tortured, he gave up the job. I didn’t expect this trick to really work!
"Old Xiao, I want to continue to be my dragon guard. The commander of the imperial army does seem to have great glory, but the people in the palace are all high-ranking officials. If you can't kill the ones who can't move, it's really meaningless! "

"Be careful, watch out for the wall..." You Er.

Before Rong Cen finished speaking, he felt a burst of fist wind passing by.

Then there was a harsh clang, the sword broke, and bright red liquid splashed in the air.

The sound of unknown objects falling to the ground sounded one after another, followed by the man's sharp and painful scream.

The fishy smell like rust is strong and spreads.

"Spare your life, Commander Xiao!"

The man knelt down and begged for mercy, clutching the sides of his bleeding head with his hands and crying bitterly.

No...you really have ears?
Rong Cen's eyes fell on the bloody ground for only a moment. Suddenly, her sight was blocked and she fell into darkness.

"Be good, don't look." A smiling voice reached my ears.

It was Jiang Yun, covering her eyes.

When one sense disappears, other senses will be infinitely amplified and then amplified.
