Chapter 691 The Fourth Prince Has Arrived
All I can say is that the people of Yuefeng Country did not live a happy life in the past.
Logically speaking, if a country collapsed, the people who would be most difficult to accept being governed by others would be the people in the capital, after all, they had lived under the influence of the royal family in the past.
Especially now that the people in power in the country have changed, I am afraid it will have many impacts on their lives.
However, what Xia Ning did not expect was that the people of Yong'an County, which is now near the capital, accepted it very quickly.
Especially when they learned that the fief of Yong'an County belonged to Princess Yong'an, who was the little princess who was quite famous in the Great Chu State.
Her mother is the famous Zhenxi General, Song Qingyan.
Even when he arrived, Xia Ning saw many people spontaneously lining up on both sides of the road to greet him.
Xia Ning then remembered that when he first came to Yong'an County, Royal Consort Song Qingyan and Lu Xingwan had lived in the palace for a period of time, and they also often strolled outside.
At that time, they naturally tried to integrate with the people outside the palace and won the love of many people.
Thinking of this, Xia Ning suddenly relaxed a lot.
Yes, I think Song Qingyan and Lu Xingwan will be able to handle this matter well.
Xia Ning began to report to Song Qingyan in detail what Princess Yong'an should do next in her fiefdom.
Now that Princess Yong'an is not here, many things should be done by Song Qingyan.
At this time, Pei Chuyan and the Fourth Prince had already traveled a long distance and arrived at the territory of Dali Kingdom.
This time, the Fourth Prince appeared in the territory of Dali Kingdom with great fanfare.
The team that went there was naturally equipped with a series of palace maids as guards, and even the phoenix chariot met the standards of a prince of the Great Chu Kingdom.
But Pei Chuyan is not.
Pei Chuyan was disguised as a bodyguard and quietly appeared beside the Fourth Prince.
Pei Chuyan also knew that the always suspicious Emperor of Dali would definitely investigate whether he had come.
So in the capital, he arranged someone to replace himself, and he himself did not say a single word to His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince along the way.
Like an ordinary guard, he followed the Fourth Prince.
The Fourth Prince entered the capital of Dali with great fanfare, but he did not rush into the palace, nor did he go to any post station. Instead, he went straight to the palace of King Yixuan.
There's nothing wrong with going to see your uncle first.
Anyway, the emperor of Dali Kingdom had no intention of welcoming him at all.
Since they were visiting the Dali Kingdom on behalf of the Emperor of Great Chu, someone would have come to inform them long ago. So Prince Yixuan and Princess Yixuan were waiting happily outside their mansion for the arrival of the Fourth Prince and Pei Chuyan.
Even King Yixuan didn't know that Pei Chuyan would come here.
They only prepared the specifications to receive the Fourth Prince.
Knowing that King Yixuan knew him very well, before coming, Pei Chuyan specially asked someone to disguise himself so that King Yixuan would not be able to recognize him at all.
He pretended to be the Fourth Prince's personal bodyguard throughout the whole process and followed him closely, so that he could hear what others said while ensuring his own safety.
Most importantly, hiding in the dark allows him to obtain more information.
Since entering Bandung City, Lin Ji disappeared.
Of course, I went to find out the news.
After all, he was their sister's child, so King Yixuan and Queen Yixuan were very enthusiastic towards the Fourth Prince.
They entertained the Fourth Prince with the highest standards for receiving distinguished guests.
After lunch, the Fourth Prince was going to the palace to meet the Emperor. King Yixuan was still uneasy, so he dismissed all the people around him and only kept the guard beside the Fourth Prince. He began to remind him of the things he should pay attention to when entering the palace.
"Come to think of it, Li Cheng is also your uncle."
"But he has always been suspicious. Although you came to visit him for legitimate reasons, I think it must have stirred up a huge wave in his heart."
"Some time ago, a sorcerer came to the palace. Your Majesty trusts him very much."
Hearing this, Pei Chuyan, who was standing behind the Fourth Prince, couldn't help but frown.
Warlock?
The emperor of the Dali Kingdom seemed to have always been like this, quite trusting these nonsense. It was the same when Ji Rong was in power.
However, Ji Rong has already gone to Yong'an County with Wanwan, so it definitely couldn't be him.
If Ji Rong had any dealings with the Dali Kingdom, Wanwan would definitely tell me.
Moreover, Pei Chuyan was not unaware of the previous quarrel between Ji Rong and the Emperor of Dali. It seemed that Li Cheng no longer had any trust in him.
So where did this person come from? What does he do?
Pei Chuyan knew that Wanwan was an extraordinary person, and not just because of what she had done.
I heard that Master Mingze, the most respected master in the Great Chu State, had gone to the north to rescue the people at Wanwan's advice.
Master Mingze also said before he left that this is the way to seek welfare for the people.
In the past, he was only concerned about his own welfare.
What he said made a lot of sense, and Pei Chuyan couldn't help but sigh.
He felt that sometimes Wanwan was like a great monk who always said something shocking yet thought-provoking.
"Is it possible that I could meet the sorcerer?" The Fourth Prince slowly asked King Yixuan in front of him.
King Yixuan shook his head: "Not necessarily."
Not to mention that this man is elusive, Li Cheng may not be willing to show him in front of others. On the one hand, he wants to protect him and doesn't want others to snatch him away. On the other hand, after what happened to the sorcerer before, he may not fully trust this sorcerer now.
The Fourth Prince nodded and did not mention the matter again. He decided to take things one step at a time.
Princess Euiseon, who had been silent at the dinner table, finally spoke at this moment.
Naturally, she had just asked the Fourth Prince about Concubine Wen. She felt relieved when she knew that Concubine Wen was safe and sound in the harem of the Emperor of Great Chu.
Although Concubine Wen had repeatedly expressed in her letters that the actions of the Dali Kingdom had not affected her, she was still worried.
She knew Concubine Wen's personality, she always reported good news but not worries. Now she was alone in the palace of the Great Chu Kingdom. In order not to worry her family, she would naturally choose to only talk about the part that would not make others worry.
But now, seeing the Fourth Prince face to face with a look of pure happiness and no worries when she mentioned his mother, she knew that perhaps Concubine Wen really did not lie.
Yes, with Qingyan protecting her in the harem of the Great Chu Emperor, there should be no problem.
Moreover, it is said that Concubine Lan, who is now in charge of the affairs of the six palaces in the harem of the Great Chu Emperor, has always treated Concubine Wen very well.
After thinking it over, Fu Yao asked again: "So how is Prince Pei now?"
To be honest, as former fans of the eldest prince, they would rather Pei Chuyan return to Dali Kingdom and inherit his father's will.
