Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

The evening mist was heavy, like an inky veil, slowly enveloping the Prince Jin's Mansion.

The atmosphere in front of the originally solemn and dignified palace became even more solemn, as if the air was frozen.

Several furtive figures approached quietly in the twilight.

They deliberately lowered their bodies, and although their footsteps were light, they revealed an undisguised nervousness and anxiety.

However, these people's actions could not escape the sharp-eyed guards.

"Stop! Who is it?"

The guards shouted in unison, like a solid wall, instantly stopping these uninvited guests.

Those people looked panicked, and the muscles on their faces were twitching slightly.

There was a fierce look in their eyes, like wild beasts cornered.

These people held crude weapons in their hands, which emitted a dim and cold light.

One of them took a step forward and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Get out of the way! We must break in today!"

The voice was sharp and piercing, with a sense of desperate madness.

"The palace is a sacred place, how can we allow you to run wild!"

The guards were not afraid. They stood ready with spears in hand, forming a solid line of defense.

When those people saw that the guards refused to let them go, they became angry and humiliated.

They cursed and hurled a stream of obscenities, then brandished their weapons and rushed towards the guards like mad dogs, attempting to force their way in.

"Hmph, over your own strength!"

A guard snorted coldly and thrust out his spear, accurately blocking the opponent's attack.

For a moment, the flash of knives and the shouts of killing echoed in front of the palace gate.

When Wang Chengyi heard the noise, he rushed over like a flash of black lightning.

He was dressed in a black suit and stood as straight as a pine tree.

Wang Chengyi's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. With a flash of cold light, the sword at his waist was unsheathed.

The sound of the sword chanting was crisp and pleasant, and it was particularly clear in this tense atmosphere.

The sword flashed a cold and dim light under the reflection of the setting sun.

The delicate patterns on the sword are like medals engraved with the years.

Each one tells of the glory of the past. It is a testimony to the family's splendor and a symbol of justice and family dignity in Wang Chengyi's heart.

Wang Chengyi was agile and leapt in front of the crowd in a few strides.

It is like a tiger descending from the mountain, majestic and frightening.

"You crazy thugs, today is your end!"

He shouted loudly and moved his sword fiercely and sharply.

Every time he swung the sword, there was a sound of breaking wind, and it was extremely powerful.

The long sword in Wang Chengyi's hand was like a dragon emerging from the sea, stabbing left and right, flying up and down, and instantly forced several enemies to retreat.

However, these suspicious people were not mediocre people. They exchanged glances with each other.

Then these people quickly adjusted their positions and formed a defensive formation, and were able to barely withstand Wang Chengyi's fierce attack.

"Brothers, let's fight!
If you can't complete the mission today, you will die if you go back!"

One of them shouted loudly, with a gleam of determination in his eyes.

For a moment, the flashes of swords and the shadows of sabers were intertwined, and the shouts of killing became more intense.

Wang Chengyi's brows were furrowed, and his eyes became sharper, like the brightest stars in the night sky.

Relying on his superb martial arts, he moved around among the enemy groups as if he was in an empty space.

"Look at the sword!"

Wang Chengyi shouted loudly, and his sword pierced the enemy's throat like a black lightning.

The enemy quickly raised his knife to block, but Wang Chengyi kicked him in the chest, causing him to scream and fly backwards. After several fierce fights, Wang Chengyi finally seized the opportunity and subdued the enemies one by one with lightning speed.

The men collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.

Their faces were covered with sweat and dust, and their eyes were full of fear and unwillingness.

Zhu Chong, who was watching coldly from the side, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of hidden calculation flashed in his eyes.

He secretly exclaimed in his heart: "This Wang Chengyi is indeed extraordinary!
If I can use it, it will surely be a great help in the turbulent situation in Xi'an Prefecture."

Zhu Chong nodded slightly, with a look of deep appreciation appearing on his face.

He slowly said: “I have heard that the king’s attendant comes from a family of military commanders, and two generations of his family have served the court.

Your grandfather and your father both served in the army and made great achievements in the war. They are all meritorious officials of the court!"

After a short pause, Zhu Chong stared at Wang Chengyi like a hawk, and continued: "Although I don't know why, Attendant Wang is now submitting to the Prince of Jin's Mansion.

However, talented people should be appreciated no matter where they are.

The skills and adaptability of Attendant Wang just now were truly admirable.

Even those so-called masters in this palace may not be able to have such abilities. "

Wang Chengyi clasped his fists slightly and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness Prince Qin, thank you for your praise. I am just doing my duty."

Zhu Chong smiled slightly and continued, "I am troubled by those staff members with ulterior motives in Xi'an Prefecture, and I am in need of a brave and resourceful person like Attendant Wang.

If the prince's attendant has any difficulties in the future, he can go to the Qin Palace in Xi'an to find me.

This king will definitely help you with all his might and will never go back on his word!

If you are willing, I can also find a suitable position for you in the palace so that you can show your talents. "

Wang Chengyi's heart moved and a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

He clasped his fists again and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, the Prince of Qin, for your kindness. I am deeply indebted to the Prince of Jin and have no intention of leaving for the time being.

If there is an opportunity in the future, I will definitely consider His Royal Highness Prince Qin’s kindness.”

Zhu Chong nodded slightly, with the smile on his face unchanged.

He secretly thought in his heart: "Wang Chengyi is a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty, but there will be plenty of opportunities in the future for him to change his mind."

After Zhu Chong left, Wang Chengyi looked at his back as he walked away, with a flood of thoughts in his mind.

The similar words that King Jin said back then involuntarily emerged in Wang Chengyi's mind.

Wang Chengyi was once a member of a glorious family. As the son of a military family, he attracted much attention and had a bright future.

At that time, he was dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse, full of vigor and vitality, and was surrounded by countless praises and envy.

However, the sudden war, like a ruthless lightning, broke the peace of the family.

My father was falsely accused of treason and the family instantly fell into an abyss of no return.

Overnight, the palace was deserted.

Those who once flattered Wang Chengyi now avoided him as if he were carrying some terrible plague.

Although the truth was finally revealed, the family's glory had been shattered and its past glory had vanished like a passing cloud.

Since then, Wang Chengyi's life has undergone tremendous changes.

Overnight, he went from being a high-profile young man to a lone walker shouldering the responsibility of reviving his family.

On countless silent nights, Wang Chengyi wandered alone in the family courtyard.

Looking at those dilapidated buildings, the mottled marks on the walls seemed like scars left by time, and his heart was filled with bitterness and unwillingness.

Wang Chengyi swore secretly in his heart: "I will take back the family's glory with my own hands!"

He knew very well that the family's revival could only rely on himself.

So after countless days and nights of thinking and struggling, Wang Chengyi resolutely decided to join the army of Zhu Gang, who had just arrived in Taiyuan, and became a royal attendant.
