Outside the imperial capital, on the formation, there was a strong smell of blood, which was the breath left by the killing on this group of soldiers.
It was extremely rich, precipitating on their armor, skin, flesh and blood, and souls, converging together, spreading in all directions, earth-shattering.
The sky changed color, the wind was surging, and the sky curtains were also rendered by their aura at this moment, becoming dark, and there were even lightning and thunder, coming out of thin air, cutting through the sky.
For a moment, it overlapped with the bells of the imperial capital, echoing in everyone's minds.
In this group of returning troops, the weakest cultivator in it is also the primordial infant cultivation, and each of them is not an idle person, each of them has committed suicide amazingly, guarding the human race's heavenly gate all year round.
Their lives are different from most of the monks in the imperial capital, and there are too many monks in it who have not returned for sixty years.
So the perennial conquest and indifference to death made each of their faces give people a sense of numbness.
But the more this happened, the more amazing the killing intent became, and it became an instinct, even if it stood in front of the imperial capital, it could not be suppressed.
Seem...... Even the imperial power is not so important in their hearts, the only thing that can cause them to make waves is ...... The battle flag fluttering in front of the army.
The flag has two displays, one is golden, embroidered with the word ancient Yue.
It was the fourth prince, he shook his head and walked over, standing side by side with the fifth prince.
"Go in, the father and all the ministers, the heavenly king, the heavenly king, and the domain venerable, are all inside."
As soon as the words came out, there was silence in the hall, and the ministers were in turmoil, it was really news about the frontier, which was top-secret on weekdays, and not many people knew about it completely.
The army behind him moved neatly and all knelt down.
After the fifth prince finished speaking, he raised his head, took a big step, and walked towards the palace.
The fourth prince said softly.
"Overall, the Yanyue Xuantian Clan is busy with the big hunt, and they have much less hunting thoughts about the surrounding tribes than before."
"Gu Yue Qingji, obey the order."
"Father is waiting for you, why don't you thank the emperor?"
A hint of sadness appeared in his expression.
A gentle voice came from behind the fifth prince, with a tone full of regret.
The fifth prince muttered softly, the ninth ring of the imperial capital bell rang, and then the east gate of the imperial capital slowly opened, and most of the officials of the Five Palaces of Xia Xuan appeared, went out to greet him, and bowed to the fifth prince in front of the door.
"Now I will reward the emperor's fifth son Qingji, and you can set up officials in the palace and add 10,000 guards, admirable."
According to the normal process, he should return to his position in the hall at this moment, but after this bow, the fifth prince did not leave, but spoke softly.
"One of the disadvantages is that those subordinate clans of Yanyue, for some reason, the overall combat power has increased, and it is not an improvement in one clan, but all of them are becoming stronger at an incredible speed."
The emperor nodded slightly.
"The Fifth Prince, apprenticed to the First Heavenly King, is the only living disciple of the First Heavenly King, and has followed the Heavenly King to guard the frontier all year round.
"If you look at it in the long run, it will be very detrimental to our clan, and there are clues to this matter, which needs to be explored by the Special Mission."
"Compared with before, both the number of invasions and the cultivation of sacrifice have been reduced by more than half, which is enough to show that the sun of dawn that my father has been planning for many years has formed a certain degree of deterrence."
"Lao Qi's death was a surprise to all of us, and he asked to ask the immortal bell to prove himself, but ......"
Xu Qing's eyes were calm and he looked calmly.
"Under the control of King Zhenyan, everything will be resolved."
"If I remain silent and ashamed of my heart, and my human race pays attention to bloodline inheritance and family affection is extremely important, then we will form a clan."
"Put away your thoughts." The fifth prince spoke calmly.
"Things are different."
"I am not a triumphant, and my father is in his prime, so he will not easily become suspicious, whether you are or others, these little tricks are not worthy of identity."
"A compatriot."
"As for the invading subordinate groups, they are also mainly training and testing, and there is no big problem."
"You've worked hard."
"In terms of casualties, in the past seventeen years on the Yanyue Frontier of our clan, more than 370,090 people have died in battle, and the list is here."
The moment he finished reading, the fifth prince stood up, and then the sergeant stood up and stood silently.
This was the first time he had spoken to the fourth prince after returning to the imperial capital.
"I came back this time, and I also asked my father to increase his troops, and the Ersi clan, one of the three strongest affiliated clans of Yanyue, is suspected of being ready to move, so that my human race will pay attention to Yanyue."
And when the ministers were thinking about each other, the fifth prince finished his debriefing and bowed to the emperor again.
"The third disadvantage is that the heterogeneity in Yanyue has tripled year-on-year in recent years, and after Zhenyan King paid attention, he once said that it was suspected...... The Flame Moon is brewing the fourth god!"
That is the meaning of returning to the third order of void.
"Congratulations to the fifth brother." The fourth prince's face was no longer solemn, but showed a kind smile.
The fifth prince said, took out a jade slip, handed it to the personal guards, and the personal guards handed it over to the emperor.
All the guards on the Rainbow Bridge all bowed their heads slightly after seeing the fifth prince to show respect.
Until he walked all the way through the Rainbow Bridge and stood in front of the palace gate, the fifth prince looked at the eleven huge incense sticks standing there, especially the area in the middle where one incense was missing.
"During this period, there were a total of ninety-seven small-scale battles, and the Yanyue clan did not appear, and it was its affiliated clans that caused the incident."
It was pitch black, as if it was painted with blood, and the word anti-inflammatory was written on it.
And at this moment, in the palace hall, the human emperor was sitting upright, and the thirteen heavenly kings also arrived, sitting under it, and all the weather in the imperial capital was also present.
The tall posture, handsome face, and black armor made the people who came over extraordinary, especially the fluctuations in cultivation, which were even more obvious.
"Father, in the past seventeen years, the Yanyue Frontier has been generally stable."
"It seems that it is also at odds with other princes."
"Father, Lao Qi did evil and was beheaded by the emperor's sword, because he made a mistake, so he should be killed!"
The fifth prince stood up, his eyes fell on all the heavenly kings, and then looked at the weather, and he only swept past Xu Qing, without showing too many fluctuations, and continued to bow to the human emperor.
However, no one had the slightest change in expression as if they hadn't heard it.
The honorific title of the first heavenly king of the human race is Zhenyan.
"The second disadvantage is that after every big hunt in the Yanyue, it has to choose the subordinate tribe Tige, and this matter may cause its subordinate clans to start a war in order to get the opportunity to attract attention."
If you see it unknowingly, you will definitely think that it is the triumph of the army, or the prince's travel, and the meaning of the people's will is very obvious.
As soon as these words came out, the fifth prince sitting on the double-headed black dragon moved his eyes away from the imperial capital and fell on the fourth prince, his body shook, left the mount, and knelt down on one knee.
"As for arranging for the people under the bridge to cheer, it is even more naïve."
As soon as these words came out, most of the surrounding ministers had smiles on their faces.
The fifth prince was expressionless and did not respond, he walked forward, and when he passed by the fourth prince, he didn't even look at it, entered the east gate, and stepped on the rainbow bridge.
"As your father said, I am very close to my brothers, but if I ignore family affection, I will have no relatives, which is inconsistent with my philosophy since I was a child."
This information, part of it came from Princess Anhai, part of it came from Ning Yan, and when Xu Qing was thinking here, there was cheers from the outside world, and the transmission of this voice fell into the ears of everyone in the hall.
Under the Rainbow Bridge, a large number of people from the imperial capital have now gathered, looking at the fifth prince walking on the bridge one by one, I don't know who cheered first, and soon there were many voices, and the voice was loud, spreading all over the world.
This scene made the fourth prince frown slightly, but soon the smile on his face rose again, and he simply followed behind the fifth prince with a smile and walked towards the palace.
The fifth prince was silent, his eyes moved away from the place where his brother had disappeared from the incense burning, and looked inside the gate, at the end of the square, and at the vast palace above the steps.
The fifth prince paused, looked at the crowd, and after a few breaths of silence, he bowed to the people before continuing.
Under the attention of all parties, he walked past the ministers step by step, appeared in front of the steps, knelt down to the emperor sitting on a high place, and spoke in a deep voice.
There was also a fourth prince, wearing a four-clawed yellow robe, walking out in the middle.
This kind of relationship in the royal family surpasses all to a certain extent, and even parental affection is not as good as this kind of compatriot at some point.
"His combat power is second only to the eldest prince with half of the Yanyue bloodline, and he is just as brave and good at fighting......"
At this moment, with a solemn expression on his face, he came to the fifth prince's army a thousand feet away and spoke loudly.
"Meet the Father."
"Welcome to the Fifth Prince!"
"The death of the seventh child is my business, and you don't need to fan the wind."
Before walking, there were still threads of rules and laws looming around him, affecting all directions and turning into the sound of wind and thunder, which was the fifth prince.
"But, I am his brother!"
For most people, at most, they only know about it, and this is the first time they know all about such details.
"But...... There is also bad news."
Soon after, a figure came into his eyes and also in the eyes of everyone in the hall.
Below, Dazai and the officials of the Five Palaces of Shangxuan were arranged in an orderly manner, each solemn.
Xu Qing was also in the main hall, sitting in his seat, expressionless, his eyes fell on the gate.
Under the banner of war, the fifth prince in black armor looked calm and looked at the imperial capital, he had been away from here for seventeen years.
As for the sergeant behind him, he camped directly in the formation.
"The fifth son of the emperor, Qingji, has meritorious service in guarding the frontier, has a virtuous martial style, and is also the god of Xuan, handsome and knowledgeable, and has talent. serving the national army, very respectful; Serving his parents, he is very filial; Brothers and sisters, very close; Serving his nephews and nephews, very good; Serving his servants, he was very authoritative. You have the demeanor of your father, my evening shadow."
He received the imperial decree last night, and he knew about the return of the seventh prince in advance at the court meeting this morning, and through Ning Yan, he also knew more about the relationship between the fifth prince and the seventh prince.
The fifth prince spoke in a deep voice.
The fourth prince nodded slightly, raised his right hand and waved it, and took out an imperial list.
"So, father, if the child wants to fight Xu Yuzun, whether he wins or loses, his heart and thoughts will be understood!"
After saying that, the fifth prince's eyes swept and instantly fell on Xu Qing's body.
A cold light burst out of his eyes in an instant.
"Xu Yuzun, please!"
