Chapter 16 Shengle, the Old Capital
  After nearly ten days of high-intensity marching, the trapped camp was finally the last to arrive at the old capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Shengle.

This city carries the long history of the Xianbei people, who rose to power here, so Shengle City has special significance to the royal family of the Northern Wei Dynasty.

The emperor Tuoba Si has already moved into Shengle, and the cavalry from all walks of life have arrived at Wuchuan Town, one of the six towns, and their troops are pointing directly at the Rouran tribe on the grassland!
  Since most of the trapped troops were infantry, Tuoba Si deliberately stayed behind to serve as his temporary defense force and stationed in Shengle City.

Ye Nan followed his camp master, and after entering the city, he went to see the Emperor Tuoba Si where he was.

Wang Shouyi took Ye Nan and Nangong Zheng to a stop in front of a heavily guarded building.

"Wang Shouyi, who has fallen into the camp, along with his personal soldier Ye Nan, and Nangong are coming to pay homage to the emperor. Please accept your permission!" Wang Shouyi shouted.

The gatekeeper was none other than the emperor's personal guard, General Shusun Jun.

This guy had a great start. He helped the emperor block countless assassinations and was equivalent to the emperor's personal bodyguard.

Uncle Sunjun blocked the door, looked at the three-pointed two-edged sword carried by Ye Nan and said, "Take off your weapons and put them on the weapon rack at the door. Old Wang, you don't need me to teach you the rules, right?"

Wang Shouyi chuckled and took the lead in taking off the long knife from his waist, and then Nangong Zheng also handed over his weapon.

Something unexpected happened when it was Ye Nan's turn. Uncle Sunjun, relying on his bravery, actually took Ye Nan's three-pointed two-edged sword with one hand. Then, an embarrassing scene occurred.
  It almost hit his foot!

Shusun Jun quickly picked up the knife with both hands, and then reluctantly put it on the weapon rack. Then, he blushed and said: "No wonder you, the old king, brought him with you when you saw His Majesty. He, His Royal Highness, used a sweat-blooded horse to fight with you." That warrior who can’t be replaced, right?”

Lao Wang smiled proudly and said, "This is my nephew Ye Nan. Ye Nan, please meet your uncle soon."

Uncle Sunjun's surname is Uncle, which makes Ye Nan become awkward when he calls him uncle.

"Boy Ye Nan, I've met my uncle!" Ye Nan said with a salute.

Uncle Sunjun nodded, then patted Ye Nan on the shoulder and said: "Good boy, if you have some strength, are you interested in joining my guard? I'll give you a command for fun."

Wang Shouyi quickly interrupted: "No! This is the general who will succeed me in the camp in the future, and he has to meet the emperor, so hurry up and lead the way!"

He was anxious. Lao Wang was definitely anxious. Shusun Jun said it was the commander of the guards, which shocked him!
  Ye Nan is the treasure in his palm now. If he runs away like this, he will cry to death.

Uncle Sunjun shook his head and smiled, then led the three of them towards a room.

It was dark now and candles were lit in the room.

Shusun Jun said softly at the door: "Your Majesty, Wang Shouyi has arrived with his two nephews."

Tuoba Si's angry voice came from inside the house,

"Let them in."

The four of them filed in. Uncle Sunjun walked to the emperor's side and stood there without saying a word.

Tuoba Si was holding a candle and staring at the map of Northern Wei and Rouran carefully. When he noticed the visitor, he put down the candle.

Wang Shouyi quickly pulled Ye Nan and Nangong Zheng to kneel down and shouted: "Greetings to the Emperor, who will rule the world for thousands of years!"

Tuoba Si laughed and cursed: "You are so shy, so stop flattering me. I remember that you were injured on your waist when you went on an expedition with me. How is your health now?"

When they met, they didn't talk about the tasks, but just started the household chores. As expected, Tuoba Si had a unique way of dealing with people.

The old man was moved to tears.

"Your Majesty, you actually still remember these old events, the last general, the last general..." Old Wang was at a loss for words...

Ye Nan quickly whispered: "I'm so grateful!"

Lao Wang hurriedly said: "Yes! I will be so grateful to Your Majesty in the end!" Tuoba Si:...

Then, she looked at Ye Nan's small body and said: "You are Ye Nan. The prince said that you have the bravery of the Overlord of Western Chu. It would be a good place to follow Wang Shouyi. Your safety during the expedition will be your responsibility. .”

Tuoba Si was now a kind-hearted, red-faced uncle. Ye Nan couldn't help but feel a paternal affection for him, and said: "I will protect the emperor to the death!" After saying this, he clasped his fists.

"General... Wang Shouyi, your nephew is quite interesting!"

Only then did Ye Nan notice that he had made a mistake. Fortunately, the kind-looking emperor didn't care about it. Instead, he teased her, making her blush with embarrassment.

Nangong looked at her nose and heart, secretly thinking that Ye Nan was a conspicuous person wherever he went, and yet he dared to talk nonsense in front of the emperor. This was really courageous.

Lao Wang chuckled and said shamelessly: "It's a matter of time, Your Majesty. Anyway, my waist is not strong, so I will be a bodyguard and accompany the Emperor for a walk on the grassland."

Tuoba Si smiled and shook his head, saying: "You, you, you are still the same as before. This time I want to end the war within three months, so the cavalry is going deep into the grassland to fight. Naturally, there is no such thing as you being trapped in the camp. Go and rest, and tomorrow morning we will march into the grassland!"

The three of them immediately resigned. Lao Wang temporarily handed over Nangong Zheng and Ye Nan to Shusun Jun, and returned to the camp to make further preparations.

Before leaving, Lao Wang warned not to be lazy. If you have time or not, you should visit the emperor more often. At least you should have a familiar face, right?
  For the two juniors, Lao Wang was really worried.

After changing the environment, Ye Nan not only did not feel timid, but he was already smiling in his heart.

Can you imagine that the boss is watching you when you are fishing, whips you when you fall asleep, and makes a clanging helmet?

Therefore, the days without Lao Wang are good days, at least you can fish in an open and honest manner!

Shusun Jun was also a wise man, so he arranged for two people to be the emperor's doorkeepers that night, one on the left and one on the right, to guard the emperor's safety.

At the next watch, Ye Nan was already standing and soundly asleep, but Nangong Zheng was standing upright, his eyes darting around, as if he could spot the assassin at any time.

[You slept and fished while standing guard for the emperor, and you will be rewarded with ten bonus points. Please keep up your efforts! 】

Hoo, ho, ho, even in his sleep, Ye Nan was frightened by the bonus points given by the system.

This is a full ten points worth!

As expected of the emperor, I can get so many bonus points just by guarding the door for him. If I stand guard as a doorkeeper every day, wouldn’t I make a lot of money?

System, give me some bonus points for Windward Knife Technique!

Good steel is used on the blade, and it is about to go to the battlefield. But you can no longer pretend to be bluffing with the knife, you have to learn some real skills!

  Not only did his defense increase, Ye Nan found that his armor became brand new and shiny.

Even the system asked me to stand guard.

Nangong Zheng suddenly turned his head to look at Ye Nan, and instantly broke out in a cold sweat. Brother Ye is truly a brave man. He even dares to sleep while standing guard for the emperor.

I don’t even support you, so I just obey you!
