Chapter Ninety-Eight
Soon, when the arrows were fired, the woods became unusually quiet.
Assassin, gone.
But Xuanyuan Ze still didn't dare to take it lightly, and only ordered everyone: "Everyone be careful." ”
He made a forward gesture, and the group began to walk again.
Strangely, until they had completely walked out of the woods, they didn't see the group of assassins just now do it again, as if all the rain of arrows just now was just a dream.
Xuanyuan Ze knew that there would be no peace on the way, even if he was tempted, Emperor Shuntian would also set traps along the way, but he would not kill him.
Half a month later, Xuanyuan Ze finally arrived in the capital.
Nie Yu was instructed by Emperor Shuntian to personally go out of the city to greet him.
"Emperor Xuanyuan, I have admired the name for a long time." Nie Yujing waited outside the capital for more than an hour, and Xuanyuan Ze's car arrived.
Ge Qingqing, who was sitting in the carriage, heard this familiar and unfamiliar voice, and thousands of ripples rippled in his heart.
She hadn't seen him in over a decade, had she? I don't know, if he can recognize her after he bumps into her.
After Xuanyuan Ze got out of the car, he saw that the leader was a man with a mask, "I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”
"I am Li Yi, the deputy of Qin Tianjian, and I sent me to the emperor to greet Emperor Xuanyuan." Nie Yu looked at Xuanyuan Ze, more casual, he had always been arrogant, how could he be willing to bend his waist.
"I see, I don't know if Emperor Shuntian has any arrangements for us?" Xuanyuan Ze knew early on that Emperor Shuntian was very likely to arrange them in the palace, but in the officialdom, there were still many scenes to be said.
"The emperor has arranged the palace, just wait for Emperor Xuanyuan to come up, and he can live directly." After Nie Yu and Xuanyuan Ze greeted each other, they went to the palace.
"I didn't expect the palace in the south to be so simple, it's really ashamed of me, compared to the palace of my Yue country, it makes people look more down-to-earth, if ordinary people come in, they won't feel scared." Nie Yu didn't expect that Xuanyuan Ze had just arrived, and he dared to make a big statement, was he too confident, so he was fearless, or did he not want to be friends with Nanguo at all?
Xuanyuan Ze's words seemed to be praise, but in fact, he secretly mocked the weakness of the southern country, so that there was no money to build a palace.
"Emperor Xuanyuan's words are also right, but my emperor is sympathetic to the people, I don't know which country has more money in their hands than the people of Yue?" Although Nie Yu is not interested in the southern kingdom, and he does not really regard himself as a courtier of the southern kingdom, but he is obviously a courtier of the southern kingdom, a courtier, if he does not say a word when he hears others slander his country, it is estimated that he will be impeached by many people.
"Maybe the people of the south and the people of Yue have a different way of life, I think that if the people of the south are not living well, they will definitely flee to my Yue country, but now the people are not shuttling back and forth between the two countries, which means that it is the same." Xuanyuan Ze's words, the meaning is obvious, Yue Guo can not only let the people live well, but also have money in the treasury, unlike Nanguo, after helping the people, there is no money to renovate the cultivation palace.
"What Emperor Xuanyuan said is, I suddenly remembered a sentence, called if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, and there is also a sentence, wealth is not exposed, Emperor Xuanyuan is so showing off his wealth, he is not afraid that the palace will be looted one day?" Nie Yu said in a joking tone, but Xuanyuan Ze was not angry.
"If a thief can break into the palace and steal all his belongings, and he can not be discovered by me, then he must be a very capable person, if there is such a person, I should abdicate and make way for Xian, and let someone with more ability be the emperor, which is also a good thing for the people." Xuanyuan Ze's words inadvertently made him stunned for a moment.
Now he hasn't seen that person, everything is just the news he has inquired about, why did he think about abdicating and making way for Xian first, really retired, the Queen Mother and the new emperor, it is estimated that they will not let him go, he has no good end, since ancient times, the heavenly family is ruthless, even if it is father and son, they will fight each other for the throne, not to mention, he is not the biological son of the Queen Mother, and he has nothing to do with that person, how can he tolerate him.
"Hahaha, Emperor Xuanyuan is really good at laughing." Nie Yuzheng was talking, and the next person presented the lychee, he picked one up casually, looked at Xuanyuan Ze, and said with a smile: "Emperor Xuanyuan has not seen this, this is unique to our southern country, called lychee, Emperor Xuanyuan might as well taste it." ”
Xuanyuan Ze looked at the small fruit with an uneven appearance, opened his mouth and took a bite, and then spit it out, "Li Gongzi, unique to the southern country, is this?" ”
Seeing this, the subordinates couldn't help but laugh.
"Please don't blame Emperor Xuanyuan, it was Li who hadn't had time to tell Emperor Xuanyuan that this lychee had to be peeled before it could be eaten." As Nie Yu spoke, he peeled off the lychee, revealing the white flesh, and then ate it.
Xuanyuan Ze was speechless for a while, he said it earlier, so much so that he almost ate the skin, but the emperor's demeanor still made him humbly praise: "This lychee is really delicious." As he spoke, he learned from Nie Yu again and ate one.
"But why is this lychee in the ice, and there are so many ice cubes." Xuanyuan Ze didn't dare to say more now, he was wrong to say more, what he hadn't seen before, it was better to humbly ask for advice.
"If you leave this branch, one day and the color changes, two days and the fragrance changes, three days and the taste changes, four days and five days of color and fragrance are gone, put in the ice, can keep the fresh and flavorful, this is its preciousness, summer ice cubes are rare, such a good thing, we eat it, ordinary people, can not eat at all." Nie Yu deliberately pointed out the preciousness of this lychee, so as to save the face that was lost in Xuanyuan Ze just now.
"In this way, I am really blessed." Xuanyuan Ze sneered in his heart, he is the emperor, what kind of good things have he not seen, just this small fruit, but he just used some ice cubes, what is so precious, hehe, Nanguo, worthy of being a barren land, just this, can also be a treasure?
He has a lot of land and resources, and I am afraid that even the people who live in the palace every day may not know about many things, how can really valuable things be so readily available.
Ge Qingqing has never eaten lychees since she left the south ten years ago, she used to live in the city lord's mansion, although her status is low, but in the end there is her cheap father to protect her, lychees can naturally be eaten every once in a while, and now she has eaten the long-lost lychee, but it makes her miss it very much, it is obviously the same lychee, why can't she eat the taste of the past.
