Chapter 1533 Things are different and people are different
When Qiao Ye walked into Xuanning City, it was not much different from what she remembered. The streets were still the same, and even the stone carvings that were missing a corner at the city gate had not been replaced.
However, the city was obviously much more lively, with many more merchants coming and going, and the streets were bustling with people.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way quickly!"
Qiao Ye walked on the street for a while, and suddenly, a noisy sound suddenly sounded.
A group of heavily armored soldiers pushed aside the pedestrians on the street and escorted a carriage. Before Qiao Ye could react, the soldiers all knelt down in front of him. Their armor shook and made a crisp sound.
.
One of the chamberlains smiled flatteringly, half-bent down, and stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty knows that the young prince is back, so he ordered me to bring someone to take you into the palace."
Qiao Ye said: "I knew it as soon as I entered the city?"
The chamberlain said: "My young prince, every household in the city now enshrines your longevity plaque and hangs your portrait. Naturally, as soon as you enter the city, many people will know about it."
Qiao Ye nodded and said, "Take me to see the emperor."
Qiao Ye was not surprised by the longevity card and portrait. It was actually a declaration to show who was protecting the Xuanning Kingdom. Many small countries did this, which could avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.
"Um..." The chamberlain was a little embarrassed and smiled dryly and said: "The Supreme Emperor is not in Xuanning City now, but has gone to Xuanyuan City to rest."
"The Great Emperor?"
Qiao Ye frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
The chamberlain said: "About a year ago, the Supreme Emperor abdicated because his body was not very strong, and the new emperor ascended the throne..."
Qiao Ye interrupted in a cold voice: "It's just that my body is weak, do I need to abdicate?
Tell me what's going on!"
"Really, it's just a bad health."
The chamberlain said in a trembling voice: "The imperial doctor said that it was the root of the disease that occurred back then, which caused problems in his cultivation. The emperor's mental condition was getting worse and worse, and it was difficult to deal with many matters. That's why he abdicated. I definitely didn't hide anything."
Qiao Ye knew that Qiao Yuanyi had a hidden illness, and it was also difficult for him to have children because of this, but Qiao Ye didn't know that besides that, it also affected other things.
Qiao Ye said: "Who is the current emperor?"
This was the only one Qiao Ye dared to ask, and the chamberlain didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, the emperor of Xuanning Kingdom was nothing compared to the defenders.
Xuanning Country is just a place in the world of martial arts, and Qiao Ye has already left the martial arts realm.
The chamberlain said: "It was the King of Lingnan who adopted his third son, Fei, to the Supreme Emperor."
"Qiao Fei?"
Qiao Ye looked confused and said, "Is there such a person?"
The waiter looked embarrassed, how should he answer this?
Qiao Ye could be disrespectful, but he didn't dare.
The chamberlain thought about it for a long time, and then said: "The King of Lingnan is not in Xuanning City all year round, supervising the soldiers on the Nine Domains battlefield."
Qiao Ye patted her forehead and remembered.
I do have such an imperial uncle, but I have never seen him. He became famous when he was young, and then became a disciple of Feibai Dojo. After completing his studies, he went to the Nine Domains battlefield. It is said that he was still a partial general, considering the situation of Xuanning Kingdom at the time.
, my imperial uncle is doing quite well.
As for Qiao Fei, Qiao Ye also remembered that he was two years older than himself and had met him in the Royal Academy. He was a very low-key person. Except for studying in the academy, he almost always stayed behind closed doors. Feng Ping
Excellent.
There were almost no people around, so it’s no wonder Qiao Ye didn’t think about it.
Qiao Ye said: "Then let's go meet the new king."
Qiao Ye boarded the carriage and entered the palace. The palace was no different from before. It seemed that the new emperor had not been extravagant and wasteful when he ascended the throne, building a new palace or something.
The main hall was only used for morning court, so Qiao Ye went directly to the study and met the new emperor Qiao Fei.
The first impression when seeing Qiao Fei was that Qiao Ye felt...
Being an emperor is really not a job done by one person.
In Qiao Ye's impression, Qiao Fei was only two years older than herself, but now she looked at least in her early thirties, with a beard. There was obvious fatigue on her face, but she was full of energy and definitely not the kind of person who was
I feel so exhausted that I haven't slept well for a long time.
"Royal brother!"
When Qiao Fei saw Qiao Ye, she stood up with a smile and said, "I haven't seen you for many years. Come, please sit down."
"We haven't met many times before."
Qiao Ye said: "So, I won't be polite. The first question is, does the emperor really want to abdicate on his own?"
Qiao Fei was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "It's no secret that the Supreme Emperor is recuperating in Xuanyuan City. You can see him anytime you want. Secondly, if there is anything fishy about the change of kings in a country, where is it hidden?
living."
Qiao Ye nodded, then lifted up his clothes and saluted, "I have met His Majesty."
"You and I, brothers, why do you need this?"
Qiao Fei quickly helped Qiao Ye and said, "I finally came back and stayed a little longer. I'll have someone go to Prince Shenwu's Mansion to clean up."
"No."
Qiao Ye shook his head and said: "I originally wanted to ask Uncle Huang about some things about my parents. Since Uncle Huang is not in Xuanning City, I won't stay any longer."
Qiao Fei asked curiously: "Private matters."
Qiao Ye nodded and said, "I'm still young and can't remember some of the old things from back then."
Qiao Fei said: "What happened in Prince Shenwu's palace?
Then you don’t have to ask the Supreme Emperor, right?”
Qiao Ye said: "Then who should I ask?"
Qiao Fei said: "Go and call Liu Li."
"Liu Li?"
Qiao Ye murmured, feeling that the name sounded familiar.
Qiao Fei smiled and said: "Liu Li was already a servant of Prince Shenwu's Palace. Later, Prince Shenwu's Palace..."
Qiao Fei smiled dryly, but Qiao Ye didn't care. Everyone knew some things.
Qiao Fei continued: "When the tree fell and the hozens were scattered, Liu Li left the palace of Shenwu King, and then entered the palace through his connections. The relationship between the Supreme Emperor and King Shenwu back then was all Liu Li was ordered to pass on, and he was Shenwu
Old man in the palace, if you have any questions about the past, wouldn't it be better to ask him?"
Qiao Ye nodded. At the same time, an old chamberlain came outside the hall and kowtowed to sign up.
Qiao Fei said: "Come in."
"Old slave Liu Li has met your Majesty and the prince."
Qiao Fei gestured to Qiao Ye, who casually waved her hand and said, "Get up, do you still recognize me?"
Liu Li smiled a little reluctantly, and said in a trembling voice: "Of course I recognize the prince."
"Relax, I'm not here to hold you accountable for those things back then."
Qiao Ye thought for a moment, then looked at Qiao Fei and said, "Your Majesty, I..."
Qiao Fei stood up and said: "I still remembered something. I have to go to the political hall. Emperor brother, don't leave in a hurry. You will stay in the palace for dinner today. I will be back as soon as I go."
Qiao Fei was very discerning and saw that Qiao Ye didn't want him to be there, so she gave up her study directly.
