We have fought to the Arctic Circle, and you want me to inherit the throne?

Although it was his first time riding a horse, Li Che felt extremely familiar with it thanks to the muscle memory of this body, as if this body was born to belong on horseback.

Sitting on horseback and looking at the caravan, it was full of ragged refugees, all of whom were recruited by Uncle Yang from outside the city.

The loyalty of these refugees is almost zero. If they encounter any trouble, they will run away faster than anyone else.

The direct descendants from the Ten Kings' Mansion actually made up the minority.

Suddenly, he saw a few strange-looking people in the team and asked curiously:

"Uncle Yang, who are those people?"

Uncle Yang followed Li Che's gaze and then said, "Your Highness, they are the servants that Eunuch Huang sent to you."

Li Che then remembered that there seemed to be ten Kunlun slaves and ten Silla maids in the yard where Huang Jin sent him an apology.

Although Daqing was established not long ago, it has always been committed to expanding its territory, and neighboring small countries have come to pay homage.

To put it bluntly, those Kunlun slaves were black slaves sold to Daqing as gifts and goods by the neighboring small countries!

These Kunlun slaves were as strong as bulls, gentle in temperament, down-to-earth and upright, and the nobles and wealthy families all rushed to buy them.

Silla, like Goryeo, was also a country on the Korean Peninsula.

Unlike Goryeo, Silla was a vassal state of Daqing and paid tribute every year.

Silla maids were young girls selected from the people by the Silla government. After training, they were sent to Daqing and sold to nobles and wealthy families for service.

These Silla maids were not only outstanding in appearance, but also gentle and considerate in character, with sweet voices and elegant manners.

It is not an exaggeration to say that they are the first Korean girl group.

"Your Highness, these Kunlun slaves are all eunuchs." Uncle Yang beside him whispered.

"What? Eunuch?" Li Che's mouth twitched. "This Huang Jin is quite perverted. Just because he's a eunuch, he also castrated the servants he bought?"

Uncle Yang was not surprised by this. How many eunuchs were mentally normal?

He seemed to remember something and looked at Li Che expectantly: "Your Highness will expand the harem sooner or later, and it's just right to keep these eunuchs to serve Your Highness."

Li Che looked at the Kunlun slaves who were covered in black, his heart full of resistance.

It's not that he is aloof and doesn't want to enjoy being served by others. He has been served by Qiuwen and several maids in the past two days, and to be honest, he quite enjoys it.

I really can't accept having a bunch of castrated men around me, staring at me no matter what I do.

"Forget it. I heard that Kunlun slaves are very strong, so I'll assign them to Hu Qiang and let him train them into family soldiers."

Li Che remembered that the combat power of castrated black men was quite strong...

Uncle Yang saw that Li Che really didn't like Kunlun slaves, so he didn't say anything more and asked:

"Then, Your Highness, why don't you pick out a few of these ten Silla maids that you like and take them into your backyard?"

Li Che looked at Uncle Yang helplessly.

What's wrong with this old man? Why is he always thinking about finding a woman for himself?

Looking at the petite figures of those Silla maids, one could tell that they must be a group of underage girls. Li Che really couldn't muster any interest in them.

"No, no, leave it all to Qiu Wen."

Hearing Li Che's words, the curtain of the carriage beside him was lifted and a little head popped out.

The little girl smiled sweetly at Li Che, revealing two white fangs: "Your Highness, you called me?"

"Ah." Li Che pointed at the Silla maidservants in the distance, "Those people will be under your charge from now on. From now on, you will be a female official in the Ninggu Palace."

The little girl nodded in confusion: "Okay, Qiu Wen understands."

While they were talking, the convoy had already arrived near the city gate.

Li Che looked up and saw a majestic city wall ten meters high stretching in front of him.

At the city gate, a team of fully armed soldiers rushed out and blocked the convoy's route.

The gatekeeper stood in the middle of the road, spear in hand, and shouted, "Stop!"

Li Che didn't even look at him and continued to control the horse forward.

The Ninggu soldiers around them held the ring-handled swords at their waists and looked at the group of armored soldiers in a joking manner.

When the city gate officer saw this situation, his heart skipped a beat and he felt that he was in a difficult situation.

Seeing that Li Che's horse hoof was about to step over him, the gatekeeper could not bear the psychological burden and knelt on one knee:

"Your Highness, please stop!"

Li Che gently squeezed the horse under his crotch with his legs, and the horse slowly stopped.

"Who is coming?" Li Che's lazy voice sounded.

The gatekeeper raised his head and saw a huge horse face. It snorted several times at him, and a foul-smelling breath came towards him.

"I am the gatekeeper of Chunming Gate. Excuse me, could you please tell me why Your Highness led the troops out of the city?" the gatekeeper said stiffly.

"I am leaving the country to return to my fiefdom." Li Che placed his hand on the horse's back. "What advice do you have for me?"

Under the tremendous pressure, the city gate officer was already sweating profusely.

But remembering that person's order, he had to bite the bullet and said, "I haven't received the order yet, so I can't let Your Highness leave the city."

After hearing this, Li Che curled his lips and looked at the city gate officer straight in the eye for the first time.

The gatekeeper suddenly felt a pressure like a mountain falling on his shoulders.

"Raise your head and see what that is." Li Che lifted the gatekeeper's chin with a horsewhip.

The gatekeeper looked over tremblingly, and saw a royal flag embroidered with the two large characters "Ninggu" fluttering in the wind, as if it was about to cover the sky and the sun.

"Remember what this flag looks like... That's an order!"

As soon as Li Che finished speaking, he shook his wrist and the whip slapped the air with a "snap".

The gatekeeper only felt a muffled thunder exploding in his ears and immediately leaned back.

When he came to his senses again, Li Che had already ridden away on his horse, leaving behind only dust on the ground and a group of soldiers looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Your Highness..." The gatekeeper wanted to say something when he suddenly felt something hard pressing against his lower back.

He was suddenly startled and looked sideways, only to see an ugly face covered in flesh in front of him.

"Don't move, kid!" Wang Sanchun grinned, revealing a few large yellow teeth. "If you dare to move, I'll stab my knife through the seam in your armor and smash your kidneys to pieces!"

The gatekeeper was instantly petrified, not daring to move, and watched Li Che's convoy leave the city in a mighty manner.

Only after the last carriage passed did Wang Sanchun release the city gate officer.

"With such a low character, you still dare to stop our prince?" Wang Sanchun glanced at him with disdain and shook the thing in his hand.

The gatekeeper looked down and suddenly his vision went dark. He almost fainted from anger!

This is not a knife at all, it's clearly a rolling pin picked up from a roadside stall!

I was controlled by this broken rolling pin for a whole incense stick of time.

Wang Sanchun threw away the rolling pin, but not feeling it was enough, he reached out and slapped the gatekeeper hard on the face:

"The man is gone, you kid, hurry back and ask your mother to help you wash your crotch, hahahaha!"

The gatekeeper suddenly realized that Wang Sanchun had disappeared from behind him.

He looked down and saw a stream of yellow liquid flowing down his armor from his crotch.
