"This thing seems to be a map?"

After returning to the room, Ye Xuan immediately wiped the dust off the black fragments, and after studying it carefully for a while, he also came to a conclusion.

On top of the fragment, there are mysterious patterns that resemble road maps, and some of them look like topographic markers, which are undoubtedly a broken ancient map.

It's just that the places marked on this map are not marked without any indication, and even where the map points to, there is no information prompt.

"Even though the map is a little bit difficult, it doesn't have any hints, and it's no different from scrap. I am afraid that only people who are very familiar with the geography of the Tiannan region can see something. ”

Ye Xuan was also a little disappointed after playing for a while without any results, and he still treated this thing as a treasure, it seemed that he was really happy.

Knock knock!

At that moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Young Master Ye Xuan, the head of the family has summoned you to meet you in the main hall. ”

"What?"

Ye Xuan frowned slightly, didn't he see this just now, why did he summon him again, it was difficult for something to happen.

"It was the royal family in the capital who sent someone here, saying that it was on the order of the monarch to let Young Master Ye Xuan enter the capital to face the monarch. The servant's voice sounded again.

"Enter Beijing?"

Ye Xuan was stunned, the current monarch of the Great Xia Kingdom is the one who once called his father Ye Xiao a brother and brother, Xia You of the Xia family, although he is thunderous about this name, but this monarch, he has never met, at this juncture, how could the other party think of suddenly summoning himself into Beijing?

But think about it from another angle, aside from Xia You's summons, it is not a bad thing to go to the capital now, Tianyang County is a small place after all, compared to the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom, it is not worth mentioning at all, there, presumably all kinds of resources are also quite abundant, which is beneficial and harmless for their own cultivation.

Out of the courtyard, Ye Xuan soon came to the main hall, and when he entered the hall, he also found that there was a middle-aged man with a white face sitting on the right side of the hall.

"This man must have been a eunuch sent by the king to deliver orders. ”

Ye Xuan looked at the middle-aged eunuch, and immediately felt a slight shock in his heart, the latter's cultivation was much more profound than Ye Tianhao, obviously at least at least at the level of a sixth-grade martial artist, but he didn't expect a eunuch to announce his strength was so good.

"Xuan'er, come and see Gonggong Yun. When Ye Xuan entered the hall, Ye Tianxiong also hurriedly pointed at the middle-aged eunuch, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan didn't speak, and directly arched his hand towards the middle-aged eunuch.

"It is worthy of being the son of Lord Ye Xiao back then, there is really no dog under the so-called tiger father, there are many rumors about Young Master Ye Xuan during this time, even I, who is in the capital, have heard a lot. That Yun Gonggong also looked at Ye Xuan carefully for a moment, and then a slight surprise flashed between his eyebrows, and Ye Xuan's cultivation in front of him seemed to have improved compared to the time of the family's autumn hunting.

"Yun Gonggong praised falsely. Ye Xuan said quietly.

"Okay, the king ordered me to announce your entry into Beijing, don't delay too long, you go and clean up, and then let me go. Gonggong Yun got up from his seat, with the king's order by his side, he naturally wouldn't stay in the Ye family for long. If he hadn't been ordered to come to announce the decree, he really wouldn't have come to a small place like Tianyang County.

"I still have a few words to say, my father-in-law will go first, and I will arrive later. Ye Xuan nodded.

"Then you should hurry up, I will wait for you in the carriage outside the mansion. Grandpa Yun didn't say anything more, and walked out of the main hall directly.

"Xuan'er, the capital is not as good as Tianyang County, where the major forces are staggered, the situation is complicated, after going to the capital, you have to be careful everywhere, the headquarters of the Jun family is in the capital, after the last miss, they may still want to make a move on you. After Grandpa Yun walked away, Ye Tianxiong immediately spoke.

"Grandpa rest assured, do it under the nose of the royal family, I believe that the Jun family does not have the courage to do so. Ye Xuan smiled.

"You are wrong, among the royal family, the attitude towards our Ye family is not monolithic, the demon tide caused by your father back then not only dragged the Ye family into a desperate situation, but also caused a lot of damage to the royal family, so among the royal Xia family, there are also many people who are disgusted with the Ye family. ”

Seeing that Ye Xuan didn't take his words to heart, Ye Tianxiong's face also became a lot more solemn, "There are not a few people like that, Xia You may have good intentions, but others may not." You still have to be wary of royalty. ”

"I see. ”

Ye Xuan's heart moved, according to this, going to the capital, I am afraid that it will inevitably be another storm, but the Jun family, there is no need to worry too much, the last time Granny Ning made a move, I believe that the Jun family will definitely have some scruples in a short time, plus that Jun Ze was assassinated, the other party will definitely link the two things together, in this way, it will be even more restrictive.

The capital is important, on the surface, after all, it is still the territory of the Xia family of the royal family, and the Jun family has to consider three points.

"If you encounter any trouble, my Ye family still has some hidden lines in the capital, you can go to them. I really can't solve it, so send me a message. ”

"But you must be calm in everything, you are the only one who is here, the responsibility on your shoulders is heavy, once you notice something wrong, you will leave Beijing and come back as soon as possible. ”

“......”

Looking at Ye Tianxiong, who was suddenly chattering a little in front of him, Ye Xuan didn't interrupt without saying anything, and it wasn't until he finally told everything that Ye Xuanfang hugged his fists at everyone in the Ye family, and then turned around and slowly withdrew from the hall.

Ye Xuan didn't bring anything with him on this trip, even the two-headed demon tiger in Su Rili was temporarily left at home, although this trip to the capital seemed to be turbulent, but in fact, as long as he kept a clear head, he felt that he should be able to handle it.

This small Tianyang County Town, he would have to leave sooner or later, and now it was just earlier than he expected.

got into the carriage of Grandpa Yun and drove towards the outside of the city.

......

Tianyang County belongs to the southern prefecture of the Great Xia Kingdom, and it is quite a short distance from the capital, and when Ye Xuan and Yun Gonggong came to the outside of the capital, it was already the morning of the third day, and it took two days to drive.

This capital is worthy of being the largest city in the Great Xia Kingdom, just the city wall, it is as high as a hundred zhang, on the city wall, everywhere at the gate of the city, are stationed with eagles and tigers of heavy armor soldiers, compared with here, Tianyang County is too cold.

Since the owner of the carriage was Gonggong Yun and had the king's order, they also walked through the southeast gate of the city that only high-ranking officials and nobles were qualified to enter and exit, and they entered the city without any inspection and hindrance.

After passing through a slightly dark city gate tunnel, and then, the deafening noise surged like a tide, making Ye Xuan's head a little foggy, and he came back to his senses after a while, looking at the black and oppressive flow of people on the street, such popularity is really terrifying.

The capital is a prosperous place, every inch of land is gold, and the forces that can gain a foothold here have two brushes, Ye Xuan learned earlier that there are three major families standing in this capital, in addition to the royal Xia family and the Jun family, there is also a Xie family, among the three families, it is the Jun family that has risen for the shortest time and has the weakest background. Under these three major families, there are many small and medium-sized families, these families can't make much of a difference in the capital, but the top of them, put them in other states and counties, are also among the best families.

The carriage did not stop all the way, and went directly in the direction of the palace, and after passing through more than a dozen streets, a majestic and solemn imperial city also came into sight.

After driving into the imperial city, the carriage stopped in front of a palace, Ye Xuan followed the Yungong into the palace, crossed several corridors, and came to a garden, and among the pavilions, there was a middle-aged figure with a majestic bearing, which came into view.

"Your Majesty, Ye Xuan brought it. ”

Seeing this middle-aged man, Gonggong Yun was also respectful and hurriedly saluted.

Seeing this scene, Ye Xuan's eyes were also slightly condensed, the middle-aged man in front of him had a square face, his appearance was a little similar to Xia Xun, and he exuded a kingly atmosphere, it seems that this middle-aged man is the monarch of this Great Xia Kingdom, Xia You.

Out of courtesy, Ye Xuan also arched his hand, but before he could speak, Xia You waved his hand, "Ye Xuanxian's nephew, your father and I are like brothers, so you don't have to be polite." You can just call me Uncle Xia. ”

"Yes, Uncle Xia. Seeing that Xia You was not putting on a show, Ye Xuan's heart was also a little more relaxed, and his attitude towards the former was much better.

"Sit. Xia You smiled slightly, and after watching Ye Xuan sit down on the stone pier, he also looked at Ye Xuan, and then a slight surprise flashed in his eyes, "Brother Ye Xiao knows that his son has finally grown up, and I am afraid that he will be at ease under Jiuquan." ”

"Your father asked me to take care of you before he died, but you were silent before, and your cultivation progress was slow, and I was afraid that it would be difficult for you to become a great tool in your life, so I didn't pay attention to you, so you shouldn't blame me, right?"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan was also silent, the previous Ye Xuan was a martial arts waste, this is an indisputable fact, it is normal that no one cares, the iron law of this world is that the strong and the weak are clear, the martial arts are respected, and if there is no qualification to cultivate martial arts, then you can only be a weak person for the rest of your life.

A weak person has no one to pay attention to, and there is no value in being noticed.

"Of course not," Ye Xuan shook his head, if he was still the waste Ye Xuan, his life would be mediocre in the future, no one cared about him, but he would not encounter any storms and waves, and he could live a life in peace, and recently, it was precisely because of his early appearance that this would attract attention, but would encounter danger.

"I don't know if Uncle Xia summoned me this time, but what's the important thing?"

Ye Xuan knew that Xia You had summoned him at this juncture, I am afraid that it had a deep meaning, and he would never be called to reminisce for no reason.

"I heard that you were assassinated the other day, and you should know which side of the attack is. The Ye family is weak and can't protect you at all, so only by arranging a good place for you can we not only ensure your safety, but also give you a better future. ”

After that, Xia You also waved his hand at Father-in-law Nayun, "Go, call Xia Yuan over." ”

"I don't know how Uncle Xia arranged it?" Ye Xuan frowned, listening to what Xia You meant, it seemed that he had arranged a place for him to go, I don't know what kind of place it would be.

Xia You picked up the teacup on the stone table, and after taking a sip, Fang Cai smiled faintly: "Xia Yuan is an elder of Aoba Valley, with his recommendation, you can enter Aoba Valley and become an official disciple." ”
