But even if he didn't feel the person in front of him, Ye Gu had to say a few polite greetings. After all, people are polite first, and the matter of returning to the military hall and meeting the emperor with Longqing in the next two days depends on Zhou Xing in front of him.

"Anyway, I've already arrived in the imperial capital with the Luo family, can you arrange for me to go back to the military hall today? Ye Gu said as he took the order that the previous emperor had brought to him to Zhou Xing.

Although this order, written on ordinary paper, has become a little wrinkled due to the series of battles these days, and even has slight damage at the edges. However, the words written on it in the red ink reserved for the Emperor of the Flame Empire were still imprinted on it like lava, and did not fade in the slightest, but shone in the morning light.

"General Ye Gu," Zhou Xing took the paper and quickly glanced at it, then returned it respectfully, "I believe in you." Moreover, I have seen you by the emperor's side more than once or twice in the imperial capital, and I can be sure that you are you, and there is no possibility of impersonation. ”

"Yes, every time I come to the palace, I am in a hurry, and I haven't even met the management master a few times. But you still remember me, it's not easy. Ye Gu replied in a tone that was familiar to the Empire, and in a tone that everyone understood.

After all, when dealing with people related to the imperial palace, even if you are reluctant in your heart, you have to pretend to be respectful and friendly on the surface, otherwise you will completely see the beautiful scenery of the imperial capital at noon.

"But, General Yegu, you can't go back to the palace and the military hall today. Zhou Xing said with a look that suddenly became serious.

"Why? Because of Long Qing? Didn't you say that Long Qing had to be seven days ago to close the imperial capital?" Ye Gu asked, and a trace of uneasiness suddenly appeared in his heart.

"You see, we're all our own people. And Your Majesty also trusts you very much and cares about you, so it is impossible for me to hide anything from my side. Have you heard about the Imperial Capital going to the Iron Bridge of the Military Pavilion the afternoon before yesterday?" Zhou Xing asked, and at the same time took off the dome he was carrying, symbolizing the hat of the officials inside the palace, and by the way, he straightened out the bald forehead that did not have much hair.

"No, we've been on the train for the past few days, and we haven't been able to get any news out of it. What happened to the palace over there?" Ye Gu asked curiously.

"Wait a minute. Zhou Xing said, apologizing to Ye Gu, turned to Luo Sijie, who was still listening to the conversation between the two of them, and said, "Miss Luo, the imperial capital's arrangements for the Luo family have been made. We know that you are from Nandu and may have had more contact with Westerners. Therefore, we will arrange for you to go to the Great Hall in the east of the Imperial Capital first, and you can rest assured that although it is an Empire-style guild hall, it is all built according to the Western-style style you are used to. ”

"How long are we going to stay that week, my lord?" asked Luo Sijie.

"It should be until the end of Longqing, but when the prime minister arrives to meet the emperor the day after tomorrow, you and your group should still go. But now that everything has been arranged, please go over first, the remaining items on the train here, you brought them over, and the soldiers of the imperial capital here will help you. Zhou Xing said, waving a few times to the imperial capital soldiers on the side.

Soon, two or three Imperial soldiers, dressed slightly different from the others, came up to the two.

"This is Yan Yiming, the captain of the Imperial Capital Guard Detachment, you can discuss the follow-up matters with him, I have other things to do with General Ye Gu here, and I am temporarily out of company. Zhou Xing said apologetically.

"Okay. Luo Sijie agreed, turned around and shook hands with Yan Yiming to discuss the follow-up.

Within a few minutes, the soldiers of the Luo family wearing blue uniforms and the soldiers of the imperial capital wearing fiery red uniforms continued to get up and down the seven trains, carrying all the items belonging to the Luo family.

Originally, Luo Sijie also wanted to ask Ye Gu about his whereabouts and Ye Mingyuan's handling, but when she thought of Zhou Xing's deliberate actions that she avoided, and the people of the imperial capital who had been by Ye Mingyuan's side to protect him from beginning to end, she could only give up.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. Zhou Xing said to Ye Gu apologetically.

"It doesn't matter. It is understandable that such a great festival as Longqing will naturally be extremely busy. Ye Gu replied with an indifferent face.

"But I'm still curious about what's going on at the palace. Yegu added.

"The palace, I'm afraid it won't be open until Longqing. Originally, His Majesty wanted to let the representatives of Longqing from all over the country go to live in the palace, but there was a rebellion yesterday. Really, why does it have to happen at such a time, everything that has been arranged has to be changed. Zhou Xing complained.

"Mutiny, what mutiny, who mutiny?" Ye Gu asked three times.

"Guard General Yan Hai, and two other of his men. I don't know which tendon in my brain is wrong, and I actually thought of assassinating His Majesty the Emperor. Fortunately, the emperor has the protection of the first emperor and the dragon clan, otherwise you would have come to attend His Majesty's funeral today. Zhou Xing shook his head helplessly and said.

"Yan Hai, I seem to have met him, I remember that not long after Ye Mingyuan left the imperial capital, he also left the military hall in a hurry, saying that he was on some important mission. Ye Gu recalled.

"That's right, he was specifically going against the emperor that time. It's just that His Majesty couldn't tell all the plans at that time, so he didn't pursue him. But this time, his subordinates and his family may not be able to escape. It's a pity. Zhou Xing shook his head again and said.

"In that case, starting a rebellion should be killed. And according to the laws of the Empire, if you commit treason, your family will also be punished with death. ”

"Yes, and you know what? Yan Hai is not as simple as a simple rebellion, there are quite a few people behind him who want to sabotage His Majesty's plans. I'm sure Your Majesty has revealed a thing or two to you, and you should understand when I say that. In addition, in order to fight them, His Majesty accidentally set fire to the towering tree in the palace that symbolizes history, and the flames burned for the night before being extinguished in the early morning. ”

"Is the loss big?" asked Ye Gu.

"It's okay. It is that some trees and two or three palaces in the surrounding area were burned down, and emergency repairs began today. Of course, it was said to the outside world that it was a fire, and under this pretext, no one could enter the palace. Zhou Xing replied.

"What about the Military Pavilion, why can't you go back?" Ye Gu continued to ask, obviously, the Military Pavilion was what he was most concerned about.

"At present, I don't know how many of Yan Hai's comrades in the Military Pavilion are, yesterday morning, His Majesty the Emperor sent a part of the troops directly under the imperial capital to surround the Military Pavilion and captured some people who were close to Yan Hai. If nothing else, they should almost all be sent to the royal prison for questioning, and if it really doesn't matter, Long Qing will be released before. However, the few people who have been caught so far who are highly related to the Yanhai Rebellion may be sent to the center of the imperial capital at noon today to be beheaded. If you have the time, I'm sure you'll be interested in going and watching it. Zhou Xing said with a smile.

Although for him himself, this smile was more of a sense of happiness, after all, they were both loyal to the emperor, but for Ye Gu, it was an eerie feeling. Because his loyalty was only for the country, not for the emperor himself.

"I'm interested in that. Ye Gu echoed with a smile, "By the way, is there anyone else besides Yan Hai who beheaded him?"

"No, no, there is no sea of flames. Zhou Xing hurriedly waved his hand. "Yan Hai was killed on the spot by His Majesty during the rebellion, and it was his father and younger brother who were beheaded, as well as several members of the Lin family. ”

"Kill on the spot?" asked Ye Gu in shock.

"This is the power of the dragons. However, I don't know the details, and if you can talk to the emperor, I suggest you ask for yourself. After all, with such a talent in the imperial capital as you in combat effectiveness, Your Majesty quite appreciates you. Zhou Xing replied.

Hearing Zhou Xing's praise, Ye Gu deliberately smiled embarrassedly, in order to hide the fear that unconsciously rose in his heart.

"If the emperor's strength has reached the point of killing the imperial capital general on the spot, then after the real dragon clan of Long Qingshi is released, he still doesn't know how strong it is. Ye Gu thought in his heart, and unconsciously touched the Feiyan Stone he was carrying around his neck.

Ever since he set off from the Southern Capital, Ye Gu had asked Luo Sijie for a thin rope as a decoration, strung the Flying Flame Stone, and carried it around his neck.

I don't know why, since the battle with the six-pointed star shield and those people, the Flying Flame Stone seems to be asleep, no matter how he infuses the magic source power, there is no flicker of light.

But for him, this is not necessarily a bad thing, after losing the magic source power, the Flying Flame Stone is like an ordinary gem, and there is nothing else except decoration. A person with a slight status like him, with a gem, has no sense of disobedience, and it is not too eye-catching.

Naturally, the small action he had just touched the Flying Flame Stone, Zhou Xing was already strange to others, and it didn't attract much attention from him.

"But then again, since we can't go back to the Imperial Capital and the Military Pavilion for the time being, what are the arrangements for Emperor Ye Mingyuan and I?" Ye Gu asked.

"Ye Mingyuan's words, His Majesty the Emperor deliberately ordered to take him back to the palace first. I heard that he has been unconscious since the incident in Guli Town, right, arranging for him to stay with the palace doctor and the demon source master first, which will also help him wake up. This is deliberately explained by His Majesty. When Zhou Xing said the last sentence, he deliberately approached Ye Gu's ear and lowered his voice. It's like you don't want anyone else to know.

"It couldn't be better for him. Ye Gu echoed.

Although it is extremely dangerous to send Ye Mingyuan back to the emperor, of course, this danger belongs to Long Qing, but after all, the Dragon Realm Stone also has to be returned to His Majesty, and he will have a lot less chips to stop Long Qing in the future.

But he still has to be loyal to the emperor on the surface, which cannot be shaken, once he is as impulsive as Yan Hai, the consequences are unwilling to be borne by all parties.

"As for your words, Your Majesty has also explained, before Longqing in the past two days, Your Majesty will arrange you in a hotel in the lively area of the imperial capital not far from the palace. Not only will this ensure that you are on call, but it will also keep you from being too lonely, won't you?" Zhou Xing said with an indescribable smile.

Naturally, Ye Gu's thoughts were not focused on other things, and there was only his only goal in his mind.

"Then I obey Your Majesty's arrangement, are you taking me over there?" asked Ye Gu.

"Willing to help. Zhou Xing smiled.

After the Luo family's belongings and personnel were sorted out and left the station, as the people of the imperial capital carried away Ye Mingyuan, who was still in a coma, Zhou Xing put on his round hat again, followed by two imperial soldiers, and left the station with Ye Gu.

However, not far from them, Ye Gu's afterglow glanced past two or three whispering Imperial soldiers. Even after a few seconds, the strange expressions on the faces of those imperial soldiers still made Ye Gu feel unhappy and uneasy.
