No matter how the situation in the south evolved, Li Yao firmly led the group for a few more days, although the road was winding but no longer encountered obstacles, out of the reach of the Fusang army, lightly armed and fast horses galloped straight towards Chunyue, and more than ten days.

Along the way, there was first cold and bleak snow and frozen soil, then the grass sprouts could be seen in the roadside mud, and then the spring breeze and greenery gradually appeared, and finally they completely passed away from the war-torn northern land to the south where the climate was already warm and vibrant.

The road is full of people who have been displaced, hungry and cold. Chaos and death, Li Yao is no stranger to this, he has seen a lot, he was once full of ambition to change the chaotic situation in the Nine Lands and the miserable situation of the people through his own efforts, even now, he still thinks so.

But the two children had never seen any of these. Previously, the inner courtyard of the deep palace and the strict military camp were the only two situations they had been exposed to so far. So every time he saw the hungry people, saw that some parents sold their children just to get a little food, and saw wild dogs gnawing and starving, Li Yu looked back at Li Yao at a loss, his eyes were full of incredulity and panic.

Li Yao could only stop and pat him on the shoulder, asking him to quietly do some help. But how could they get through the long journey, he looked at him and said that they could only change it if they did what they had to do.

Li Yu turned his head and pondered silently.

Finally reaching the junction of the two places, the guards of Chunyue armed guard had already strengthened the pass and strictly checked the people who crossed the border. Xiahou dismounted, stepped forward to talk about it, stuffed it with some money, and the sergeant looked at them coldly, raised his hand and let him go. A team of men and horses silently passed the pass.

Li Yu kept looking back immediately, and behind them were many fleeing old and weak women and children, who were pushed and shoved by the sergeants and could not cross the border, and some men were arbitrarily pulled into the recruitment queue in order to survive or just to exchange for a small amount of family rations. Even if ordinary people get here, they will inevitably be separated from their wives.

They traveled for more than ten days and came to the Chaoge Flower Field, which was not far from Chaohuang City. In front of everyone's eyes, there is an endless sea of flowers, a field of colorful colors in the field of vision, and a rich fragrance bursting in the face, and there is no sign of war here. Li Yao is no stranger to this place, there are flowers and plants in the sea of flowers that can soothe the mind, everyone's tense nerves have been relieved, he saw that everyone's faces have relaxed and softened, and the children's eyes also have a joyful brilliance.

Chunyue is a warm and moist place in the south, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the plains are wide and fertile, the rivers are vertical and horizontal, rich in jade, flowers and plants and famous trees, especially the ancient and lush plane wood on the feather mountain is the most famous, because it is the birthplace of the phoenix and its descendants and clans who choose trees to live in. King Chunyue is the heir of the phoenix, the head of the kings, the second of the nine lands, and the Yushu clan who has a bloodline alliance with the Li royal family. The beautiful mountains and beautiful women in this place are famous, and according to this, the kings and lords of the Feng Shui treasure land are naturally known for their wealth. The Yu Shu clan, like the Li clan, was born in the world since the time of the gods of the barbarian era, and then rose on one side, and after several ups and downs, it returned to glory.

At this time, Li Yu recalled that as the descendants of nobles, one of their basic lessons since childhood was that they had to memorize the customs and clan forces of the Nine Lands. And Li Yao behind him knows that under the prosperous surface now, he is also helpless.

Just as everyone was infected by the safe scene of the flower field, a group of golden-armored cavalry suddenly appeared at the end of the field of vision, and the queue marched towards them in an orderly manner. The battle-hardened guards immediately stood on guard and reached out to the places where they had hidden their weapons, but when they saw that Li Yao did not move immediately, they all remained calm. When the team gradually approached, it could be seen that the golden phoenixes fluttering on the crimson flags were soaring in the fire, which were the guards of the Phoenix City.

Soon, hundreds of gold-armored cavalrymen lined up dozens of feet away from them, and the first handsome young general turned over and dismounted, striding towards them, the bright red cloak behind him fluttering with his steps. At the same time, Li Yao gently pulled his horse and carried Li Yu from the guards to the front.

At this time, the broad and tough face of the general was clearly visible, he stopped in front of their horse, knelt down on one knee, bowed down and said loudly: "The last general Chunyue Yushu under the throne of the Crane Army Palace, the former guard commander of the Crane Army Palace, Nangong Qingyun, greets His Majesty the Supreme Emperor of the Nine Lands, His Royal Highness the Commander of the Nine Lands Expedition, His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess and His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess drive into the city!"

Li Yao heard that he would be a member of the Nangong clan, and his brows tightened inadvertently, but the commander of the Nine Lands Expedition was sealed by Li Yu after he ascended the throne, and he intended to lead the lands to rebel.

Li Yu didn't make a sound for a while, and Li Yao quietly pressed on his shoulder. "Please get up. Li Yu immediately raised his voice and responded indifferently.

Li Yu and Li Ni changed into a Xuanjin Yunlong brocade robe that symbolized imperial power, and were respectively welcomed into two tall carriages pulled by nine Tianmu horses. The maid Xuan Ming changed her men's clothes, wore a delicate floral skirt, and combed her double-ring bun decorated with jade flowers, and walked beside Li Ni's car. The Xiahou brothers led a group of guards to follow the car, expressionless but vigilant in their hearts. Under the escort of the Chaohuang guards led by Nangong, they came to the city of Chaohuang with towering flags on the city wall.

The city salute horn sounded in unison, the city music was carried up, the city gate was already neatly standing full of people in gorgeous costumes, and the long red background gold dragon and phoenix brocade carpet stretched out from the city gate along the wide city road. Li Yu and Li Ni were invited to get off the carriage, and Li Yao got off the horse and stood majestically behind them. There were four people at the head of the crowd, and when they saw Li Yu standing still, they took the lead in kneeling, and the rest of the people standing behind them in crimson court clothes also knelt down and shouted: "Long live my emperor!"

Li Yu just hastily ascended the throne in the evil city, and then faced some armored soldiers, never had such a grand courtesy, but since he was a child, he also heard about it in the Emperor's Palace, and after Li Yao's careful teaching, he took two steps forward, although his voice was still immature, but he tried to calm down and said loudly: "Zhuqing, please get up!"

After Li Yu finished speaking, he stepped forward, and Li Ni and Li Yao followed.

Everyone had already heard the words and got up, and Li Yu approached them without hurrying.

Among the four people standing at the head in front of him, the old man with a solemn face, a red and gold dragon and phoenix brocade robe, and a silver hair with a high bun decorated with dragon and phoenix steps, is the mother of the first king of Yu Shu, who died more than a year ago, and also the mother of the former queen Yu Shu Jinyao, the sister of Wuzong Li Yan, the aunt of Renzong Li Xi and Li Yao, and the current concubine Li Xuan of Chunyue.

The immature child she was carrying beside her, who was wearing a red and gold phoenix robe and had not yet worn a crown, was younger than Li Yu, and the current young king Yu Shuhuan who had also passed away from both parents.

Beside them, there stood a beautiful and feminine woman, dressed in a gorgeous and dignified red gold silk phoenix brocade robe, and her high bun was decorated with phoenix swaying and auspicious clouds, Li Yu couldn't help but pay more attention, because although her makeup was different from his mother's, her face under the heavy makeup was really similar to his mother, she was Li Yu's aunt Chunyue County Lord Yu Shuyifei.

A man standing next to the back, with a long figure and starry eyebrows, is different from the red court clothes of many court officials behind him, he is wearing a wide-sleeved black green robe with a green luan pattern, wearing a black gauze crown with tied hair, and a smile on his face is always slightly holding the corners of his mouth. The suzerain of the Nangong family is Nangong Chengyu, who has written orders for more than 30 years in Chunyue, who has been in the same dynasty as the official system, and this young man must be his son, Nangong Ming, who is now inheriting the official position.

When Li Yao, who was standing behind, saw this person, he knew in his heart that this trip was due to him.

"My grandson has seen the old lady. Li Yu, who walked in front of everyone, greeted him, although his voice was still immature, but his experience in the palace since he was a child and the war and turmoil in recent years have made him old. Li Ni on the side also bent his knees to make a blessing ceremony, "Old lady Wanfu." "My nephew meets the old lady. Li Yao bowed and saluted. Yu Shufei and Nangong Ming on the opposite side also bent their knees and bowed to Li Yao and Li Ni.

The princess and concubine Li Xuan leaned over to support the two brothers and sisters, Li Yu and Li Ni, took their hands, changed their solemn faces, and the red pupils were covered with tears at the moment, looking at them kindly and lovingly, and said in a trembling voice: "My emperor, the eldest princess, my grandson, I have been running all the way, but I have suffered." ”

"Old lady, we had a smooth journey and didn't suffer anything. Li Yu was appropriately relieved.

"The situation is chaotic, and my Li clan has suffered a catastrophe...... The emperor and the eldest princess are still young, how can they not suffer!" Li Xuan said and raised his hand to embrace them into his arms, and couldn't help but whimper and sob emotionally.

"Mother Concubine," Yu Shufei on the side stepped forward to persuade, "Your Majesty the Emperor, King Yao, and His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess must be very tired from running all the way, let's invite you to enter the city first." ”

"Yes, Grandmother Wang, I feel so tired after standing under the sun for so long. The young boy Yu Shuhuanxiang raised his head and said dissatisfiedly.

"Okay," Li Xuan nodded again and again after hearing this, let go of the two people in his arms, wiped his tears with a handkerchief and said, "My emperor, this Chunyue land is your land, Chaohuangcheng is your city and your home, please go home in the city!" After she finished speaking, she ordered someone to send Li Yu and Li Ni into the carriage again, and she and Yu Shuhuanxiang sat in another car, and the county lord Feifei sat in the fourth car.

Li Yao got on his horse and walked to the front of the car, and the ministers withdrew to both sides, leaving a long dragon and phoenix brocade blanket. The salute horn sounded again in the city, and the ritual music was not broken, and the procession entered the city gate in order.

"The land of Chunyue is your land, and the city of Chaohuang is your city and your home......" Li Yao's ears echoed the words of the princess, he knew that these words were soothing, but also to some people, and they could not avoid facing this difficult opponent and chaotic situation, thinking of this, he was like every time he stepped into the battlefield, he straightened his back more and more on the horse, like a raptor raising his fighting spirit in his heart.
