Located at the dark bottom of the spacecraft, the sword symbol representing the Xuanyuan royal family is clearly visible.
no doubt.
This spaceship came from the palace in the mountains of the imperial city of Hudu, and its purpose was unknown.
"Emperor, uncle emperor..."
His eyes were filled with fear.
Faced with the sudden power of the imperial city, Xuanyuan Qiong was shocked and confused.
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
A familiar voice came from behind.
At some point, the regent had walked out of the wooden house, put his hands on the girl's shoulders, stared at the spaceship in the sky, and said solemnly: "They should probably come to see me."
After a while.
The spaceship in the sky began to descend downward, and finally suspended in front of the waterfall.
next moment--
The dark cabin door burst open.
Several night watchmen wearing golden armor leapt out of the cabin, carrying a bright sword on their backs. As they passed through the sky, a long sword chant could be vaguely heard.
"Golden Armored Sword Guard..."
Frowning.
Xuanyuan Zhong slightly felt something was wrong, and said in deep thought: "It seems that something big has happened."
Golden Armored Sword Guard——
They are higher-level royal guards than the Forbidden Palace Envoys. Normally, they will not be dispatched easily.
Unless there is major turmoil within the royal family of the Daxia Empire.
as expected.
Several golden-armored warriors landed in front of the wooden house, raised their hands and saluted Xuanyuan Zhong respectfully.
"See the Regent~~!"
Narrow your eyes.
Scanning the group of golden-armored warriors in front of him, Xuanyuan Zhong remained silent, raising his chin, his eyes filled with a biting cold aura.
Hiding behind the regent, Xuanyuan Qiong secretly observed these golden armored warriors and felt that their whole bodies exuded a sharp aura like sword blades from top to bottom.
All in all, it gives people the illusion of being inaccessible but uncomfortable.
"Without further ado."
Always protect the girl.
Xuanyuan Zhong said with a straight face and an expressionless face: "You came here to find me with great fanfare. What happened?"
As soon as these words came out.
All the golden-armored sword guards were stunned and seemed extremely nervous for a moment. After hesitating for a long time, they didn't know how to respond.
"Report to the Regent..."
The leader of the golden-armored sword guard took a step forward and said respectfully in a low voice: "His Majesty said that he misses the prince very much and hopes that you can return to the imperial court to participate in the grand event with his majesty."
At that time, because of political differences.
Xuanyuan Zhongcai chose to leave the center of power in anger and punished himself by coming to this isolated house of confinement.
Logically speaking——
All this happened to be in line with the thoughts of Emperor Xuanyuan Ren of Great Xia.
Without the interference of this highly respected and powerful regent, he could truly exert his supreme imperial power to the extreme. From then on, no one would dare to disobey his will.
But now, sending someone to invite Xuanyuan Zhong back is obviously not logically justified.
"Haha, do you miss me?"
A cold smile.
Xuanyuan Zhong shook his head and sighed softly: "You guys go back and tell His Majesty that I am living a good life here. As for the activities in the court, I have long lost interest."
"Governing the country and bringing peace to the world is what your Majesty should do..."
He shook his hand.
The regent put his arms around the shoulders of the girl behind him and turned around to walk towards the house.
"You guys, please go away. Don't bother me anymore. I'm getting old. I just want to live a long life. Let others deal with those troublesome things!"
Be firm and never look back.
Seeing that the regent did not agree with them, the several golden-armored sword guards immediately became confused and froze on the spot for a while, appearing to be at a loss.
"Your Majesty, please stay!" The leader of the man in golden armor suddenly shouted.
"how......"
Stop.
Xuanyuan Zhong turned back to look at everyone, his eyes were sharp, and he asked with insight: "Is there anything else?"
Grit your teeth.
The leader of the golden-armored man looked troubled, raised his head and glanced at the girl-like Xuanyuan Qiong, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is a serious matter, can we take a step to talk?"
obviously.
The other party was worried about Xuanyuan Qiong's existence, worried that the walls had ears, and that the secret would be leaked.
"That's not necessary."
His eyes are as bright as a torch.
The regent looked serious and said in a deep voice: "This child is my king's niece. The blood of the royal family flows in her body. She is also a descendant of the Xuanyuan family. If you have anything to say, please speak it quickly. There is no need to hide it."
I thought about it for a long time.
The man in golden armor let out a long sigh. In desperation, he finally leaned over and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he is critically ill...I'm afraid..."
Startled suddenly.
Xuanyuan Zhong couldn't help but widen his eyes, finally realizing the seriousness of the matter.
The current emperor, His Majesty Xuanyuan Ren, has been frail and sick since he was a child. He has become ill from overwork for so many years, and his end is finally approaching.
Once the emperor dies, the situation in the court will definitely be turbulent. There are many ambitious people among the city lords and princes in various places.
More importantly, Prince Xuanyuan Longcheng was only in his early twenties, and his conditions were exactly the same as his father's. He was a completely ordinary person.
With the change of imperial power, the political situation is extremely fragile.
If there is no powerful person to take charge of the world, it may cause a chain reaction and cause the entire Great Xia Empire to fall apart.
no doubt.
Regent Xuanyuan Zhong is definitely the best person to be able to control the situation, both in terms of strength and prestige.
More importantly, Xuanyuan Ren knew the regent's character very well. He was upright and loyal, knew his integrity and had a bottom line, and he would definitely not covet the throne.
Ever since.
Only the dying Emperor Xuanyuan Ren of Great Xia would send his golden-armored sword guards to ask the regent to come out, in order to deter the turbulent Chao Gang.
"My subordinates know that Your Majesty still has resentment in your heart..."
Keeping his head lowered.
The golden-armored sword guard was dripping with sweat and spoke boldly: "However, for the sake of the common people in the world, please put aside the past grudges, put the country of Daxia first, and come with us back to the palace, so that you can share your majesty's worries!"
In an instant.
All the golden-armored sword guards suddenly knelt down and shouted in unison: "I respectfully invite the prince to come out to rectify the Great Xia Dynasty!"
Take a deep breath.
The regent closed his eyes, with a heavy expression on his face, and he couldn't help but feel a mixture of emotions in his heart.
Think back to the beginning.
The reason why he left angrily, resigned from all positions in the court, and chose to punish himself and go into seclusion was because he disdained the greedy style of the emperors and bureaucrats in the Daxia court.
Competing with the people for profit will bring endless harm.
The disadvantages may not be visible in a short period of time, but once you get used to it, it won't be long before the common people in the world can no longer survive, and they will have no choice but to take risks and rise up.
Xuanyuan Zhong was heartbroken, and felt extremely disappointed, and did not want to join the ranks of these people.
But in the current situation, faced with such a special situation, he may no longer be able to stay out of it.
"That's fine."
He took Xuanyuan Qiong's little hand.
Regent Xuanyuan Zhong turned around silently and sighed: "I will go with you."
