Therefore, the situation in Zhongzhou was the best time for all forces to intervene, and they did not choose to intervene even at this time.
"This matter is of great importance. Follow me to the post house and wait." The man said loudly.
Liu Qingge bowed in thanks and said, "Thank you very much, sir."
"You don't have to be so polite. If our Majesty doesn't agree, you don't have to think about doing business."
"I would be very grateful if you could help convey this, sir."
The group of people followed the man to the post house. It was already dark when Liu Qingge and his group settled down. At this time, they had just stepped into the border of Donghuang, and they had less than two days to reach the capital of Donghuang. .
After Liu Qingge had just finished washing, he heard Qingshu reporting: "Young Master, I have already inquired about the young man who is leading today. He is the city lord here, Wei Xiche. He is the nephew of your majesty. Recently, due to the increase in refugees in Zhongzhou, , so Donghuang began to set up checkpoints from the border to avoid the influx of a large number of refugees from Zhongzhou."
Liu Qingge's movement was normal. After all, the refugees from Zhongzhou were not refugees from Donghuang. Donghuang had no obligation to accept Zhongzhou. Although Liu Qingge and his party deliberately avoided the battlefield along the way, they I can still feel the cruelty of war.
Basically, in all villages there are no strong men except the elderly and children. In fact, a large number of people come to Donghuang. They are not completely refugees, but because some people come to Donghuang to avoid military service.
I didn't expect to meet people from the Wei family in this border city.
"Wei family, Wei is the imperial surname of Donghuang. Hasn't Wei Xiche been crowned king? Why is he just a city lord?" Liu Qingge asked curiously.
"Young Master, this Donghuang does not have the tradition of knighthood. Even if you are a member of the royal family, you need to go through layers of assessments if you want to get power. I heard that Wei Xiche started as a soldier. After he has achieved military exploits, I was just given a city.”
Liu Qingge became interested as soon as he heard this. He had long heard that men and women were equal in Donghuang, and even women had the opportunity to become officials. He didn't expect that the royal family also needed to go through layers of trials to gain power. It was really strange.
"Go and buy me some books about Donghuang's customs and customs so that I can study this place carefully." Liu Qingge ordered.
"Yes, I will take care of it now." Qingshu went out after accepting the order.
Not long after, Qingshu came back with two books. Liu Qingge didn't expect that it would be so late at night to get the books so quickly.
"So fast?"
"My subordinate didn't buy this, but the people in this post knew that my subordinate was looking for books like this, so they sent it here specially."
Liu Qingge took the book and started to read it carefully. The more he read, the more he felt that Donghuang was really interesting. It was democratic enough. Most of the officials were appointed through elections. Donghuang was also subversive of tradition. There were even many officials. The Queen appears.
This is simply a magical country. It is no wonder that Donghuang can stand out among the entire Sifang Shenzhou as a latecomer.
In the past, Zhongzhou used to be the strongest existence in the Sifang Divine State. However, due to its isolation from the country for many years and its unwillingness to trade with other countries, it was gradually overtaken by the Eastern Emperor.
The political situation of the entire Donghuang is relatively stable. Except for the occasional small friction with Zhongzhou, the people of the entire Donghuang are in a policy of recuperation.
The people were prosperous and the country was strong. At this time, Donghuang already had the capital to compete for hegemony.
But what he didn't expect was that in such a situation, Donghuang could hold back his anger and focus on people's livelihood. Liu Qingge really didn't know whether Donghuang really only focused on people's livelihood, or if he was just a sleeping lion.
After one night, Wei Xiche came to the post house in person. Looking at the smile on his face, Liu Qingge felt that the matter was probably done.
"Your Majesty allows you to go to the interview. Prepare yourself and then follow me to the interview."
"Thank you, Mr. Wei."
The group simply tidied up and then followed Wei Xiche to the Holy Capital. The entire Holy Capital of Donghuang was white. Under the sunlight, it seemed to be covered with a layer of charming gold gauze, and it also brought a sense of charm. There was a bit of a sacred atmosphere, and the crowds of people coming and going on the streets instantly made the entire Holy City seem lively.
Waiting for Liu Qingge to enter the palace, Wei Xiche said in a deep voice: "This friend in the dark, this is the palace of my Donghuang. It is better for a master like you to wait outside to avoid giving birth to a child. Other incidents."
Zhao Yinqing, who was hiding in the dark, followed Liu Qingge all the way and no one noticed him. He didn't expect Wei Xiche to find him. At that moment, he listened to Wei Xiche's words and chose not to move.
Liu Qingge nodded and said, "Just wait here for me. I believe that the king of Donghuang will not act randomly."
Under the guidance of Wei Xiche, Liu Qingge entered the palace smoothly.
I was still a little surprised in my heart, why could Wei Xiche, a city lord on the border, bring her here in person? At first, he thought it was nothing, but Wei Xiche was able to discover the existence of Zhao Yinqing at such a young age. His martial arts skills are definitely not too low. Such an important border city lord is also the nephew of the lord of the Eastern Emperor.
This is probably too much face.
Although it was for trade, the status of the two was obviously not equal enough. Now it was Zhongzhou who asked for help from Donghuang, rather than Donghuang who asked for Zhongzhou. In terms of diplomatic status, there was no equivalence at all.
Liu Qingge entered the palace with suspicion. When he saw the man on the throne, Liu Qingge was surprised. If not for anything else, this man really looked like himself in men's clothing!
"See Your Majesty."
"See Your Majesty."
"No gift."
Obviously, when Liu Qingge was looking at the Lord of the Eastern Emperor, he was also looking at Liu Qingge. The more he looked at Liu Qingge, the softer his eyes became: "Is your mother okay?"
Listening to the fact that the Lord of the Eastern Emperor came up and asked nothing more about Liu Qingge's mother, she was stunned, and then said with pain in her heart: "My mother has been dead for many years."
"died?"
Upon hearing the news of Liu Qingge's mother's death, the head of the Donghuang Kingdom looked down. He couldn't even maintain a basic smile. He asked with a sad face: "Why did your mother die at such a young age?"
"My mother was killed by a traitor." Liu Qingge clenched her fists and said.
She didn't know why Liu Qingge told the truth when she saw the man in front of her. Maybe she had a special fate with the man in front of her, and it was precisely because of this fate that she chose to speak.
"Who is it!" The Lord of the Eastern Emperor's eyes were scarlet, and his voice was filled with fury.
"It is the emperor of Zhongzhou - Emperor Song Ming."
"He dared to kill Pianran!" The leader of the East Emperor Kingdom walked directly in front of Liu Qingge and continued: "My child, maybe you don't believe it when I tell you that I am your father - Wei Qingzhao."
"Are you Qingzhao?" Liu Qingge was surprised.
She thought a lot about his biological father, but she never thought that her father was actually the king of Donghuang.
