Chapter 536: The Envoy Arrives
In front of the main gate of the Condor Palace, there were many soldiers and armor, and His Majesty the King led seven or eight important ministers, with panicked expressions, trotted all the way to a carriage.
The old king had not exercised so vigorously for a long time except on the bed, and his blue-gray face was covered with beads of sweat and his legs and stomach were trembling all the way.
The few important ministers behind him were no better, and they scolded the fools in the Honglu Temple of the Ministry of Rites in their hearts for not reporting to them in time.
After Ye Changsheng was assassinated, the imperial court had already expected that the Glory Federation would definitely send someone to question.
Over the years, the Glory Federation has annexed small countries around the world, but it has also given these small countries very lenient treatment, which can not only retain their own small courts, retain the identity and status of the royal family, and even retain a part of the army.
But there is only one point, the Glory Federation will never allow its authority to be challenged, even questioned.
Ye Changsheng was a guest invited by the two cities of glory, he was assassinated in the territory of the federation, how could the royal families of the two cities of glory not send envoys to question?
The ministers of the Principality of Condor originally thought that the envoy sent by Glory City was just an ordinary character, but they didn't expect that it was actually a prince.
is not only a prince, but also a prince of the Bai Su line in the ruling alliance!
The two royal families of the Glory Federation, the Gongsun Imperial Family and the Su Imperial Family, control the huge Federation in a way that governs in turn.
Because of the years of dissipation, the Su royal family is divided into four branches: Blue Su, White Su, Mosu, and Red Su.
Just the year before last, it happened to be the turn of the Su clan to govern, and according to convention, the Lan Su line was the most powerful, and the power of the rulers should also fall into their hands.
Su Tianye, the king of Amano, who did not want to be the pillar of the Lansu lineage, and had the reputation of the god of war, was suddenly assassinated, and the Lansu lineage was hit hard, and it fell into chaos.
After a series of internal struggles, the original situation in which the Blue Soviet Union was in power became a situation in which the Blue Soviet Union, the Red Soviet Union, and the White Soviet Union were in power.
And Bai Su among the three Sus is the most powerful branch today, and the prince sent by Bai Su can be imagined.
The old king and the ministers stood solemnly in front of the carriage, and waited for their breath to be even, before bowing down and saying, "I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Second Prince would come, and I would miss the welcome!"
The door of the carriage opened, and a handsome young man stepped down, looking indifferent, and walked straight towards the open gate of the palace, accompanied by two old men.
The old king and his courtiers hurried to follow, but the master became a guest.
In the conference hall with round tables, the second prince Su Yuanfang found a place to sit down at random, and the old king and ministers also found a place to sit down.
The advantage of the round table is that there is no priority, at least not in the eyes of outsiders.
In fact, in the palaces of each subordinate state of the Federation, there is such a meeting hall and such a round table, so as to maintain the authority of the kings of various countries.
Otherwise, once the city of glory sends a big man, will it be a big man, or will it be the king of the subject country?
Sure enough, the second prince came for the assassination of Ye Changsheng, but fortunately, the Condor Palace had already prepared, and immediately a minister stood up, handed over the sorted file, and described it in detail.
Su Yuanfang looked through the file, and waited for the minister to finish speaking, then raised his head and looked at the people with uneasy faces.
His expression was still indifferent, and he said slowly: "You must understand that Ye Changsheng is not only a sword-forging master sincerely invited by the Federation, but also a distinguished guest of my Su family!"
What, Sue, the distinguished guest of the Su family?!
The old king and his ministers were stunned, and their hearts trembled violently.
In fact, from the moment they learned that the second prince was coming, the old king and the ministers had already had a premonition that the incident of Ye Changsheng's assassination might not be so easy to deal with.
But they never expected that Ye Changsheng would still be a distinguished guest of the Su family.
If these words came from ordinary Su family disciples, probably the old king would not take it to heart, but the person who said this was indeed His Royal Highness the Second Prince of Bai Su, and the weight would be very different.
The second prince said so, which means that Ye Changsheng's identity as a distinguished guest was recognized by the ruling Sansu and the entire Su royal family.
What is the origin of this Ye Changsheng, who can be regarded as a distinguished guest by the Su family?
The old king's forehead began to sweat, thinking of his previous perfunctory treatment of Ye Changsheng, he was so remorseful that he really wanted to slap himself twice.
If he had known that Ye Changsheng was a distinguished guest of the Su family, how could he possibly put the king's shelf in front of Ye Changsheng and send them away.
Now that Ye Changsheng hasn't left, if Ye Changsheng says something in front of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, then, the consequences will be unimaginable!
The other ministers were also terrified, how could they not hear the dissatisfaction and unhappiness in the second prince's tone?
Fortunately, Ye Changsheng hadn't left yet, and they still had a chance to make amends.
Thinking in his heart, several ministers kept squeezing their eyes at the old king, and their eyelashes were broken a dozen times.
The second prince, Su Yuanfang, suddenly asked, "Is Ye Changsheng still in Condor City?"
The old king, who was in a daze, suddenly felt in his heart, and hurriedly said: "In, in, I, no, Gu specially invited Ye Gongzi to the palace's sword room, and he hasn't left yet." ”
Su Yuanfang nodded suddenly: "Then when he comes out, he will come and inform the king." ”
Su Yuanfang has liked to play with all kinds of strange stones since he was a child, and if he encounters a satisfactory stone, he can play for a day and a night without eating or drinking.
From this, it is probably that Ye Changsheng, who is a swordsmith, will be fascinated once he encounters an appreciative long sword, and he doesn't want to be disturbed.
As everyone knows, the second prince's understanding is the greatest relief for the old king of the Condor and the ministers.
The old king and the ministers were overjoyed and hurriedly nodded their heads again and again.
They still have a chance, as long as they take Ye Changsheng a good look before Ye Changsheng meets the second prince, Ye Changsheng will not sue in front of the second prince.
Su Yuanfang asked about the details of the investigation by the Fayan Sect and the Demon Gate, and when he saw that these people were vague and confused, he couldn't help but be disappointed and got up to leave.
The old king and his ministers followed him until they were outside the palace gate, and they were not relieved until the carriage was far away.
"Your Majesty, it seems that we still don't pay enough attention to that Ye Changsheng. A cabinet minister sighed.
This morning, he proposed that it was humiliating for the imperial doctors in the palace to heal the wounds of a group of people who ran away from the boat, so he summoned all those imperial doctors back.
Not only that, but he also proposed that the docks be cordoned off in the name of protection, so that the people on board would not be allowed to disembark at will, lest they enter the city to make trouble.
Now that I think about it, these measures are a bit excessive, Ye Changsheng still doesn't know, if he knows, how does he feel?
The old king glared at the minister, and hurriedly ordered to send the commander of the sailors to personally comfort the people on the ship, and lifted the blockade of the docks.
These are all trivial things, the most difficult thing is, how can Ye Changsheng be satisfied and block Ye Changsheng's mouth?
