Chapter 204 Arrival in the Capital



The journey to the capital is long and cannot be reached in a day or two. Moreover, one needs to stay in the carriage for most of the time, which is extremely torturous.

When they first left in the carriage, Xiaoya and Dawang were a little excited.

As a result, the scenery along the way was mostly the same and the excitement quickly wore off.

Even the most optimistic of the two cubs, Xiaoya, felt a little listless after staying in the carriage for so long.

Including Song Qianning, they were almost like dead fish, and were more eager to reach the capital than the two cubs.

After nearly a month on the road, the group finally arrived in the capital.

Sitting in the carriage, Song Qianning lifted the curtain and glanced at the city gate outside, thinking to herself, it's worthy of being the capital.

Compared with the city gate of the county town, the city gate of the capital is several levels higher in terms of momentum and cannot be compared at all.

The carriage did not stay at the city gate for long. After Changqing showed the token, the soldiers guarding the city immediately stepped back to let the group pass.

After arriving in the capital, the two listless cubs finally regained some spirits.

Among the two cubs, Da Wang was the calmest. He only glanced at the city gate for a few times before looking away.

The little girl became much more excited. After she recovered her spirit, she leaned on the window of the carriage, staring at her surroundings, looking left and right.

When he sees something interesting, he will happily reach out and call Da Wang, asking him to come over and take a look.

After entering the city, the carriage headed directly towards the Regent's Palace.

Servants were already waiting inside. When they saw Qin Ye, they all knelt down and saluted: "Greetings, Your Majesty."

Due to Qin Ye's intimidating power, no servant dared to look at Song Qianning who followed him, even though they were curious.

After jumping off the carriage, Song Qianning looked around curiously, then retracted her gaze and led the two cubs down from the carriage.

Seeing the expression on Song Qianning's face, a smile flashed in Qin Ye's eyes.

Since he still had to go to the palace to meet the emperor, Qin Ye first settled the mother and her two children in his residence before going to the palace.

Before leaving, he looked at Song Qianning and said in a deep voice, "I will not return from the palace until I have seen the emperor. If you have anything to say, you can consult the servants in the mansion."

"I understand." Song Qianning waved her hand perfunctorily: "Hurry up and leave. Don't waste time."

After giving instructions to the servants in the mansion, Qin Ye set off for the palace.

A eunuch had been waiting on the path leading to the imperial study. When he saw Qin Ye, he immediately grinned, trotted forward and bowed, his smile as big as a chrysanthemum.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty is waiting for you in the Imperial Study. Please go directly there when you arrive."

"Lead the way."

"Yes." The eunuch responded and led Qin Ye into the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the Regent has arrived."

In front of the imperial desk, a man in a bright yellow dragon robe sat there, exuding an imposing aura.

Hearing the eunuch's voice, the emperor looked up from the table, a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Qin Ye with a smile: "You are here, but you have kept me waiting for a long time."

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects." Qin Ye bowed to the emperor.

The emperor had a long-lost smile on his face. He waved to the eunuchs in the imperial study and said in a deep voice, "You all should withdraw first. I want to talk to the regent alone."

"I obey your order."

Knowing that the emperor wanted to be alone with Qin Ye, several young eunuchs in the imperial study responded and hurriedly withdrew from the imperial study, leaving the space for the emperor and his minister.

As the eunuchs left, the imperial study was empty in an instant, leaving only the emperor and Qin Ye.

The emperor stood up and walked out from the table. He personally reached out and patted Qin Ye on the shoulder, jokingly saying, "I finally summoned you back. It seems that my imperial edict is still useful."

"Your Majesty summons me, and I will naturally respond."

Standing behind the imperial desk again, the emperor's tone was much more serious than before: "Qin Ye, do you know why I urgently summoned you back to the capital this time?"

"I know. It's because of Gu Yunji and his gang."

Exhaling a breath of foul air, the emperor put his hands behind his back and stared at Qin Ye with a somewhat vicissitudes of life in his expression: "I am old, and there have been constant disturbances in the court recently, especially with Gu Yunji's party."

When he mentioned the name "Gu Yunji," his expression grew increasingly serious, with a touch of complexity in it. "Gu Yunji and his followers have been acting more and more arrogantly lately, committing atrocities everywhere. I am old, and most of the time I am powerless. From now on, I will have to rely on you in the court."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I am here and will never allow Gu Yunji to stir up trouble again."

Because of his words, the emperor smiled again: "I believe you."

While the king and his minister were chatting, Song Qianning, who had settled down on the other side, also began to tour the palace.

After getting familiar with the house briefly, Song Qianning took the two cubs and prepared to stroll around the palace.

With Qin Ye's order, the servants in the palace knew that their relationship with Qin Ye was not simple, and their attitude was extremely respectful.

When he learned that she wanted to visit the palace, he took the initiative to ask, "Miss Song, can I take you around the palace?"

"Need not."

After rejecting the servants, Song Qianning took the hands of the two children and wandered around the mansion, looking left and right.

As the regent, the entire palace truly lives up to the name of regent. It looks magnificent and huge from the outside, and the scenery inside the palace is also particularly attractive.

The scenery nearby and within each courtyard alone was more attractive than any mansion she had ever seen before.

Even from Song Qianning's perspective as a fish, she couldn't say a bad word.

The palace was extremely large, and Song Qianning's feet were sore from walking around, having only walked halfway through the entire palace.

She stopped and glanced around, sighing, "Young Master Qin's house is really big."

The little girl next to him immediately nodded her head in agreement, saying, "And Daddy's house is so beautiful. I love it."

Unlike his mother and sister, Da Wang was somewhat indifferent to this.

After Song Qianning finished speaking, he looked at her seriously with his little face: "Mother, when I grow up and make achievements, I will definitely buy you a bigger and better house, many times better than Daddy's house."

Seeing Dawang's serious look, Song Qianning couldn't help but reached out and gently rubbed his head: "I believe you!"

At the same time, in another magnificent mansion, a man of extraordinary bearing sat beside a stone seat, listening to the report from his servants.

After the servant finished speaking, Gu Yunji narrowed his eyes and played with the teacup in his hand: "You said Qin Ye came back with a woman?"

"That's right." The servant said respectfully, "And the relationship between the two seems unusual."

After fighting with Qin Ye for such a long time, it was the first time that Gu Yunji saw a woman next to him.

According to the servants' description, the relationship between the two was not ordinary.

Of course, the fact that there is a woman next to Dan Qinye is surprising enough.

Placing the teacup back on the stone table, Gu Yunji said directly, "Someone come here."

A figure suddenly appeared in front of him: "Master."

"Go check for me the identity of the woman following Qin Ye."
