Chapter 20 The Baron Lord

"Your Majesty, although there are a large number of imperial border guards, their combat effectiveness is not strong and they are too scattered. They are not the opponents of the armies of the four great dukes of the empire. Ability!

In the past, His Majesty feared that the border guards would be too powerful and would no longer obey the orders of the empire, and become a separatist force like the four dukes. He deliberately divided the border guards into dozens of small forces to check and balance each other, and finally obey the orders of the empire. The command.

Now, the border guards have combined into a new interest group due to the Ye family's rich industry, and have become a large military group. Even if His Majesty wants to stop it, he is determined.

Rather than allowing it to develop freely and become a cancer of the empire, it is better to invite it to fight with the four great dukes of the empire, wear down the strength of both parties, and make due contributions to the unification of the imperial government. "

The old man in the starry sky sacrificial robe glanced at the curious King Wu, and said calmly. [

"The Imperial Border Guards are not fools, they can't easily confront the four Dukes of the Empire!"

Hearing the old man's words, King Wu shook his head lightly and said.

"Your Majesty, as long as there are enough interests, the Imperial Border Guards will definitely attack the four Dukes of the Empire to solve your Majesty's serious problems. If the Empire can make reasonable use of the power of the Imperial Border Guards, it can solve the problems of the Four Dukes and the Imperial Border Guards once and for all. Army two major military blocs."

Seeing King Wu shaking his head, the old man said confidently.

Hearing the words of the old man in the starry sky sacrificial robe, and seeing the confident expression on his face, the King of Wu Kingdom lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said with a cold light in his eyes: "We need to make a good plan for this..."

"Master, His Majesty's imperial decree has arrived, please go outside to receive the decree!",

A guard of Ye Mansion hurried to Ye Chen's door and shouted loudly.

"Okay, I get it now."

Ye Chen replied casually, then got up, put the two top-grade spirit stones in his hands into the space ring, tidied his clothes, opened the door, and walked outside.

Soon, Ye Chen gathered several stewards of Ye Mansion, and two personal guards, Ah Da and Ah Er, and rushed to the front yard of Ye Mansion.

At this time, an eunuch wearing a khaki-colored robe and holding an imperial decree in his hand looked impatiently at the front yard of Ye Mansion, and behind him stood two burly guards .

"Young Master Ye, since you are here, then hurry up and accept the order!"

Seeing Ye Chen, the eunuch's eyes lit up, and he quickly said loudly, if Ye Ying was not seriously injured, before he sealed himself in the crystal ice coffin, he would definitely curry favor with Ye Chen in order to gain some benefits.

But now, he doesn't have that thought, and he doesn't want to get any benefits from Ye Chen, because he knows very well that His Majesty Wu Guo doesn't have the slightest favor for Ye Chen, if it wasn't for the pressure from the Border Army General Club , and seeing Ye Ying's contribution to Wu Kingdom, Ye Chen was either exiled or locked up in prison.

Under such circumstances, as someone close to His Majesty Wu, it was too late to hide, so how could he befriend Ye Chen!

Hearing the eunuch's words, Ye Chen didn't hesitate at all, and immediately led several stewards of the Ye family to kneel down on one knee with Ah Da Ah Er to welcome the imperial decree of the King of Wu.

"King Xuanwu's decree: In order to commend General Ye Ying's outstanding contribution to the Wu Kingdom, Ye Chen, the son of Ye Ying, is specially named the Baron of the Wu Kingdom, and the territory of Linhai County is conferred. There must be no mistake in taking office in Linhai County.

Since Linhai County is too far away from the empire, the empire's control over it is not strong. In order to facilitate Baron Ye Chen's management of Linhai County, he specially ordered Baron Ye Chen to hand over all the properties of the Ye family to the Ministry of Finance of the Empire at a price of [-] million gold coins. , as the century-old tax of Linhai County, this is it! "

Seeing Ye Chen and the others kneeling on one knee to receive the order, the eunuch without any hesitation immediately opened the imperial edict and read it out, and handed the imperial edict to Ye Chen after the reading. [

Hearing the content of the imperial decree, Ye Chen was furious. He didn't expect that the king of Wu Kingdom would be so ashamed to give himself the title of baron, seize all the properties of the Ye family, and exile himself to Linhai County.

That's right, it's exile. There was a riot in Linhai County decades ago. The officials and troops of the empire in Linhai County were killed by the rioting crowd. The king of Wu Kingdom bestowed Linhai County on Ye Chen as a Territory, and let him go to Linhai County to take office, not exile, what is it!

Seeing Ye Chen kneeling on one knee, his face was full of anger, and he didn't have the slightest intention to get up to receive the order. The eunuch holding the imperial order sneered and said, "Baron Ye Chen, hurry up to receive the order!"

Seeing the sneer and sarcasm on the eunuch's face, before Ye Chen could speak, Ah Da Ah Er, who was behind him, was furious in his heart, and shouted angrily at the same time: "Shame!"

Ah Da and Ah Er are both ninth-level fighters, and their shouts of anger, like thunder in the sky, exploded in the front yard of Ye Mansion, causing the eunuch who was holding the imperial decree to be shocked, his face turned pale, and his legs trembled , almost fell directly to the ground.

Feeling the sound of thunder in Ah Da and Ah Er's angry shouts, the two sturdy men standing quietly behind the eunuch, their faces unchanged, shouted coldly: "Bold!"

Immediately, a thunderous sound echoed in the front yard of Ye Mansion, and a wave of sonic power, like steel needles, pierced into the ears of Ye Chen and many servants and guards in the front yard of Ye Mansion, making Ye Chen and others There was a stabbing pain in the person's head, and his head became dizzy. Some servants and guards with low strength even let out a shrill scream, fell to the ground, and passed out.

"court death!"

Ah Da Ah Er, who had a stabbing head, and Ye Yi and the others who rushed over when they heard the movement in the front yard, saw Ye Chen covering his head with a face of pain, and saw the servant lying on the ground, unconscious The guard yelled involuntarily, drew out the long sword on his body, moved like lightning, and rushed towards the two sturdy men behind the eunuch.

"act recklessly!"

Seeing Ah Da, Ah Er, and Ye Yi and more than a dozen ninth-level fighters waving their long swords and prodding towards him, the two sturdy men standing behind the eunuch sneered and pulled out their swords. With a casual wave of the long sword on his body, a sharp sword light about Zhang Xu long shot out from it, covering Ah Da, Er Ye and the others.

"Sword Master!"

Shrouded by the fierce sword light, Ah Da, Er Yeyi and the others felt the chilling aura and strong sword intent in the sword light, and involuntarily came up with the word Juggernaut in their minds.

Ada, Erye and the others are all people who have seen the world. Although they are surprised that the two behind the eunuch are sword masters, they will not panic because of this. Instead, they are more cautious, moving like lightning to form a battle Formation, swinging the long sword in his hand, with the help of the amplification effect of the sword formation, the power of the sword lights of more than ten people is doubled, and they are facing the sword lights of the two sword masters.

boom!boom!boom!

The sound of violent explosions resounded in the front yard of Ye Mansion, and bright rays of light rose in the front yard of Ye Mansion, and strong air currents, with terrifying destructive power, swept the front yard of Ye Mansion Flowers and trees were destroyed.

"stop!"

Ye Chen, who woke up, immediately mobilized the spiritual power in his body and let out a roar. Immediately, the two sword masters who were fighting fiercely, Ah Da Ah Er Yeyi and the others stepped back without hesitation, and cast their gazes on Ye Chen's body.

Ada, Erye and the others are Ye Chen's guards, they dare not disobey Ye Chen's order, and the two sword masters don't want to fight to the death with Ada, Erye and the others, putting themselves in danger In the midst of this, Ye Chen let out a roar, and both sides in the battle stopped at the same time.

Seeing the truce between the two sides, Ye Chen couldn't help but relax his tense nerves. He doesn't want to fight to the death with the King of Wu Kingdom now. Once Ada, Erye and others hurt the two sword masters, the King of Wu Kingdom will definitely not agree Let it go, [-]% will send more and stronger guards to deal with him.

At the same time, he knew that there was a huge difference in strength between the ninth-level fighters and the holy-level powerhouses, and he didn't want to cause casualties to Ada, Eryeyi and others, so he could only choose to compromise, accept the will of the king of Wu Kingdom, give up the Ye family's property, and leave the imperial capital , to take office in the chaotic Linhai County.

Seeing Ye Chen's compromise, the eunuch who had been instructed by the King of Wu Kingdom before leaving the palace, saw that the goal of deterrence had been achieved, so he stood up immediately, handed over the imperial decree to Ye Chen, and returned to the palace with two sword masters up. [
