Hearing the words of the Empress Niangniang, Emperor Great Qin thought for a moment, and then said, "Anyway, there are still a few days to go, let me think about it again, we had better not be too obvious, after all, the face of our Great Qin Empire still needs to be maintained." ”

The queen mother hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Your Majesty, will the arrangements for those troops before be carried out normally?"

Emperor Daqin nodded, "Of course you have to do it normally, if you don't do it, it will be abnormal." After all, any lord who returns to Fengdu will be treated the same. ”

The queen thought for a moment, then nodded, and left the imperial study.

At this time, Bai Qianye and his party had already left Jiangdao County and entered Julu County.

"Childe", Xi Tong said in the real-time communication system, "The front is Julu County, we need to pass through Julu County in about two days, and then pass through Guangmu County in four days, and we will almost reach the range of Fengdu." ”

At this moment, Bai Qianye and the others discovered a problem, that is, almost two thousand meters away from them, there was always a cavalry force of about a thousand people, maintaining the same speed and the same direction as them, advancing together.

"Sister Xitong", Bai Qianye frowned, and asked in the real-time communication system, "Who are they?"

Because those cavalry are ordinary soldiers, and their strength is about the rank realm, although it can be seen from the maintenance of the formation that they are relatively rigorously trained, but in the eyes of Bai Qianye and others, they are still very ordinary soldiers.

Moreover, those people only kept a distance of about two thousand meters from Bai Qianye and his party, and they didn't seem to have any intention of hiding their traces at all, coupled with their low strength, Bai Qianye could easily sense their existence, not to mention those Nirvana powers around him.

Xi Tong smiled and said lightly, "Childe, those people are dressed up in the Imperial Forest Army of the Great Qin Empire, and their strength is very low, so I didn't tell you, after all, I don't think they can pose any threat to us." ”

Bai Qianye pursed her mouth, "It turned out to be the Imperial Forest Army, but I don't know why they want."

And since when have they been following us?"

Xi Tong paused slightly, and then said, "If I didn't make a mistake in judgment, they should be cavalry troops sent by the Great Qin Imperial Family to accompany us. ”

"Yes, that's right", at this time Mei Niang said, "Childe, they are also routine, and they have no danger or attack intentions against us, so don't care about them." ”

"What does it mean to be accompanied?" Bai Qianye asked incomprehensibly.

Mei Niang stroked her hair and smiled lightly, "How should the escort be explained? It should be said that if there is a person who travels and is specially accompanied by cavalry troops specially sent by the empire, it means that this person is already a powerful person in this empire, and at the same time, this person must still have military power, and both are indispensable." ”

"If the two are only one of the same, then the Empire will not send cavalry troops to accompany them. ”

"And," Mei Niang said with a smile, "Childe, you should feel that you are particularly valued, after all, your accompanying troops are cavalry, and according to the tradition of the Eastern Alliance, most of the time the accompanying troops are infantry." ”

Mei Niang continued, "Accompaniment, this is not just a tradition of the Great Qin Empire, but a tradition that the Eastern Alliance, and even the Western Alliance, is a tradition that every empire will basically follow. ”

"According to the tradition of the Eastern Alliance, when the lord is a very high class, unless his lordship is revoked, he has no reason and is not qualified to return to the imperial capital. ”

"Oh?" Bai Qianye was stunned, scratched his head, and smiled hesitantly, "There is such a tradition, this is the first time I've heard of it." ”

Mei Niang pursed the corners of her mouth and smiled, "No one would have thought that Gongzi would be able to sit in the position of lord at this age, and what I didn't expect was that as soon as Gongzi took office, he directly started the East-West War, and even the Great Qin royal family probably didn't have time to talk to Gongzi about these things, so many things were dealt with hastily, and they fell a lot at all, so they can only make up for it little by little from now on." ”

Bai Qianye nodded, and said with a wry smile, "Go on, anyway, there is time now, I just need to learn more, don't return to Fengdu at that time, what etiquette is not in place, let people laugh at it." ”

"Of course, I don't care if anyone laughs at me, and I'm sure no one will dare to laugh at me now, not even behind my back, because everyone is afraid that it will reach my ears. ”

"But", Bai Qianye touched his nose and said, "I should still consider the face of my father and the Prime Minister's Mansion, after all, I am now with the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion are both prosperous and lossy, there are some things I can not care about, but I still have to take care of the feelings of my family." ”

Mei Niang looked at Bai Qianye in surprise, then covered her mouth and smiled, "Childe is right, it should be like this." After all, Childe is still in the world, and these things should be considered without affecting the overall situation. ”

Seeing that Bai Qianye was able to listen energetically, Mei Niang continued, "Generally speaking, when the lord is still in office, unless His Majesty the Emperor has an edict, there is no reason and qualification to return to the imperial capital, but according to the current situation, the prince should be regarded as a relatively special situation." ”

"First of all, Childe's exploits are particularly remarkable. ”

"From the perspective of the empire, Childe, as the lord of Jiangdao County, has made particularly outstanding achievements in this East-West War. And on the previous neutral battlefield and the sky battlefield, Childe still led the younger generation of the Eastern Alliance to achieve a very important victory, and these are still for the empire. ”

"In fact, according to me, Childe's achievements are not only for the empire, but even for the entire Eastern Alliance, Childe has made a very outstanding contribution. ”

"The seizure of the Gulf of Aden has already abolished the Eastern Alliance and made enough benefits, not to mention that Gongzi led the cavalry troops to repeatedly attack the two empires of Germany and England, and at the same time regained the Pope's Ring of Thorns, which is already a supreme achievement. ”

"As for Gongzi personally, in fact, others don't know, the Heavenly Palace and the Great Qin Imperial Family should be very aware of Gongzi's true strength now. ”
