I tied the waistband that the Prince Regent gave me around my waist, and then walked around the palace at will. The Prince Regent's mansion was really luxurious, with gold and red paintings everywhere, cornices and brackets, pavilions, pavilions, and rockeries. Flowing water, goldfish in clear water, green grass and weeping willows, flying birds and white cranes, it really is like a fairyland. It is worthy of being the center of national power.

As I walked around the Regent's garden, I kept the main traffic intersections in mind. What surprised me the most was that all the main scenic spots in the courtyard were guarded by dedicated personnel. Some pavilions and pavilions were equipped with snacks and tea for the convenience of the nobles who visited the garden.

The imperial power of this ancient and old society really enjoys it. I was amazed to see it.

Just as I was wandering around, a female voice suddenly shouted: "Hey, where are the thieves from? Why don't you come and capture them with me!"

I was startled, and when I looked back, I saw a general wearing armor with a sword in his hand, pointing down at me majestically. The general also brought many guards.

These people should all be guards in the Regent's Palace. It must be a misunderstanding that they arrested me. Could it be that you didn't see my badge?

I quickly raised the badge on my waist high: "Everyone, I am the guard invited by the Regent Chitose. I have the badge personally given by the Regent as proof. Don't be so nervous! I am one of my own! I am one of my own. !”

After listening to what I said and seeing the badge I showed, the whole scene suddenly became much more relaxed. The soldiers who were at war with each other and were about to rush up to attack me stopped at this time.

Unexpectedly, the leading general shouted loudly again: "Nonsense! The belt card is fake! Don't listen to this thief's clever words and tricks, catch him!"

One of the guards said loudly: "Wugege, the waist card in this man's hand seems to be real."

The leading general shouted angrily again: "Fart, it's obviously a lie! Come on and catch me. Otherwise, be careful with your heads!"

I stupidly held up my badge for a long time, thinking it was a misunderstanding. Now when I hear that this guy has lived in vain, I know that this is not a misunderstanding. He is clearly trying to find trouble. What's wrong is that the regent sent someone deliberately to test me.

Those palace guards were about to lose their heads when they heard this, so they had no hesitation. One by one they rushed toward me with ferocious looks.

At this time, I was very confused. Judging by the number of guards, their martial arts skills were extraordinary. They had to be at least first-rate and second-rate in the world, otherwise they would not be able to work as servants in this palace. However, although their martial arts skills are good, they are by no means my opponents.

To deal with these people, I only need to use a few killing moves, and I can subdue all these warriors immediately. However, when experts compete, there will inevitably be casualties. The most important thing is that the guards in front of me and I are actually colleagues. We will inevitably have work contact in the future. Can I do it at will?

If we really let go and fight, if there are casualties, wouldn't it be too unfair and offending?

So I used the Qinggong taught by my master, raised my energy slightly, and jumped two feet high. Then I used my hands and feet together to perform the stunt of flying over the roof and walking over the wall, and with a whoosh, I was on the roof.

As soon as I got on the roof, someone shouted from below: "It's really a thief! Catch me quickly. Whoever can catch this thief will be rewarded with a thousand silver dollars!"

When the guards below heard this, they all tried their best and used their special Qinggong skills to fight me.

I stood on the roof and watched the farce that these people put up. I had mixed feelings for a while, and I opened my mouth to express the essence of the Chinese nation.

Me: "You are the revolutionary Wugege, right? I've heard of your name! Hey, which song are you singing today? Can you let me go?"

Just as I was speaking, a guard with good qinggong skills came to me. I had no choice but to run away. Then jump from this roof to that roof, jump from that roof to this roof.

Among the guards chasing me, there were some who were good at qinggong. They were running around on the roof like me, chasing me desperately.

Those who were light-hearted, wielding swords and guns blocked me under the house. And while they were chasing me, they were shouting and shouting loudly.

"Caught the thief! Caught the thief! Caught the snitch!"

This shouting and shouting made the whole palace boil. These people who usually work in the palace, regardless of whether they are palace maids or eunuch guards, all swarmed over and shouted curses at me one by one. Others threw stones and bricks at me.

Fortunately, those guards were only seeking money and did not use throwing knives, hidden weapons, guns and ammunition to attack me. Otherwise, the situation might be more difficult to control.

I was chased and attacked by many people. It felt like I had stung a hornet's nest. The feeling of being framed was really not good.

While I was climbing on the roof of the palace, dodging the stones and bricks that were being thrown at me, I watched a group of people below me surrounding me. At this moment, I feel the quintessence of the Chinese nation in my heart, and I don’t know whether to talk about it or not.

After a while, I moved to the depths of the palace. At this time, my junior sister heard the loud shouting outside and hurriedly went out to check. She happened to see me passing quickly from the rooftop in the distance, with shock in her eyes. look.

I can't control that much, anyway, it's already like this. A dead horse is a living horse doctor, so why not just try the security of this palace.

So I used all my skills and kept flying over the palace. Sometimes he runs from east to west, sometimes from west to south, sometimes from south to north, sometimes from north to south. Now that I have become proficient in internal energy training, my true energy circulates endlessly, and it is not a problem to control the volleying energy for a long time.

I ran up there and observed the crowd below. At the beginning, everyone followed me vigorously, but after a while, the group of people was divided into three, six, and nine. Some were still running very fast, but some palace maids and eunuchs were already exhausted.

So I didn't stop doing anything, and simply continued to circle back and forth on the roof of the palace, just like exercising with the staff of the palace.

When I turned around a few more times and arrived at the Prince Regent's courtyard, I saw the Prince Regent standing in the courtyard from a distance. He seemed very angry and shouted loudly: "Stop making trouble! What a shame!" Stop it! Be so bold!"

I was so happy that I jumped into the Prince Regent's yard, and then shouted my apology to the Prince Regent.

Me: "I'm so sorry. There was a misunderstanding just now. Please forgive the Prince Regent."

At this time, the female general who wanted to arrest me at first also ran into the yard angrily.

Female general: "Brother Qi, this guy is a snitch! He bullies me!"

Prince Regent: "That's enough! Isn't today embarrassing enough, Fifth Brother? Let's all leave quickly. Our palace, the Prince Regent, is the most important place in the country. How unbecoming are you shouting and chasing each other like this! You guys, on weekdays, If you don't practice martial arts diligently, and all of them are weak at critical moments, they are all useless, please step aside if you don't hurry up."

Outside the courtyard, the gang of guards, maids, eunuchs, etc. who were chasing me were scolded by the regent. One by one, they became disheartened and dejected. Finally, they all retreated in despair.

Zaifeng dispersed his men, and then looked much more pleasant to me.

Zai Feng: "Shan Feng, you are really good at martial arts. In less than three years, you have learned such a unique skill in Taihang Mountain. Taoist Master Tianji is really unfathomable. You are so good at it, I really yearn for it!"

Me: "Prince Regent, you praise us too much. No matter how powerful the kung fu I have learned is, at best, it is just some fighting and killing kung fu in the martial arts world, and it cannot reach any level of elegance. With you, Prince Regent, we will strategize and take charge of the state affairs." Comparable, that is absolutely incomparable.”

Wugege: "Flattery!"

The regent laughed loudly: "Lao Wu, you are so rude today. What Shan Feng just said is right. Let's do this, Lao Wu, how about you give up your position as commander of the royal guards to Shan Feng? I think Shanfeng's martial arts skills are extraordinary, why not let him do it..."

Wu Gege suddenly became anxious: "No, no matter how powerful his martial arts is, he is just an outsider at most. Brother Qi, Fifth Sister will defend your safety to the death!"

Listening to the two people talking in front of me, I thought of some past events.

This Wu Gege is none other than one of the most enthusiastic members of the royal family in the late Qing Dynasty, who was keen on reform. Previously, she followed the previous emperor and implemented reforms throughout the Qing Dynasty, which were quite radical.

If the previous emperor had not died unexpectedly, maybe these five grids would have achieved certain results.

But history has no ifs. Since the death of the last emperor, Wugege, as a radical member of the reform movement, has naturally been suppressed by conservatives. It is even said that he was deprived of his honorary title. It was not until Zaifeng came to power that Wugege was restored and granted the official position of Commander-in-Chief of the Guards of the Regent's Palace.

Although the official position of the commander-in-chief of the royal guards is not great, Zaifeng's current status is extraordinary. With the title of regent, he has monopoly power. Therefore, his guard officer is actually equivalent to the highest military attaché of the Forbidden City. The importance is obviously self-evident, and the status is also quite hot.

I wanted to understand these ways, and immediately clasped my fists and said, "The Five-Five Aphorism is reasonable. The position of the Royal Guards Commander is very important. Shanfeng is just a commoner. He is so virtuous and capable that he dare not hold this position. I beg the Regent, Qiantai, to take back his life."

Wugege then breathed a sigh of relief: "You know what I mean!"

Zaifeng thought for a moment and said: "Okay. Let's get here first today. Shanfeng, you have been busy all day, so you should rest first. As for your official position, I will give it some thought before you go and rest quickly. ."

So I quickly bowed and left.
