”What is it?” However, in Xiang Run's heart, he was already prepared.
”In twenty days, Xiluo's fleet will arrive at Daqi Coast.” Haas lowered his gaze.
”To take you home?” Xiang Run was calm and composed.
Haas raised his eyes and looked at the young emperor. ”... ”Yes.”
The emperor was unmoved and only said, ”We will send someone to prepare some fine wine and delicacies from Daqi to welcome the guests from afar.”
Haas wanted to say something but hesitated. After bowing, he left politely.
As Xiang Run sat behind the desk, his heart surged with emotion. He didn't know where his royal father and mother had gone to, but he really wanted to go tell his father that someone was finally coming to threaten this powerful nation.
He did not want to bring the country and its people into war or danger. To a ruler, the only thing that could truly help them grow up was their enemy.
”Someone, come.” The emperor said in a clear voice.
”What orders does the emperor have?” The chamberlain hurried over.
”Imperial Uncle and Shen Yun are here to meet.” Xiang Run stood up excitedly, ”Tell them to come quickly.”
On the other side, Prince Haas gracefully walked out of the palace. Although he had already stayed in the capital for a long time, those who saw him were still curious and looked at all sorts of people.
On the road to the Imperial Palace, an extravagant carriage slowly approached. Shen Qing sat upright in the carriage, the servant girl beside her suddenly said: ”Princess is a prince of the Xiluo.”
Shen Qing lifted the curtain and saw that the blue-eyed prince was walking in the opposite direction. He had most likely just met the Emperor, and with a calm and graceful smile, he was very polite to everyone he met.
”Princess, could it be that the thing he saw with his eyes was also blue?” The servant girl smiled curiously. ”How can he have blue eyes? His skin is still so white.”
The palanquin from the Longevity Palace was already waiting for her at the entrance. She got off the palanquin and sat in it, but not long ago, she heard her grandmother and the rest of the palace saying that the prince and eldest young master had entered the palace.
The Empress Dowager muttered: ”Every time father and son enter the palace together, something big is about to happen. What's going on?”
Shen Qing comforted her aunt gently: ”Maybe they discussed to go hunting.”
The Empress Dowager laughed: ”Then you have to be envious of me again, I can't walk anymore.”
As Shen Qing accompanied her grandmother, her heart was also thinking about his father and brother coming to see the emperor. At sunset, she returned home, but his brother and father had not come back yet. It was only when the sky turned dark did the servants hear that the prince and the eldest young master had returned.
However, as soon as they returned home, the father and son pair entered the study room. The other officials also came, and there were a lot of people gathered in the study room.
It was only when it was deep into the night that everyone dispersed. Shen Qing had his servants watch the movements in the study room, upon hearing that they had dispersed, she immediately brought food and soup over. It was likely that her father and brother had not eaten anything for a long time.
When she arrived, her brother had just walked out of the study. He smiled and said, ”I'm going home. Your sister-in-law will definitely be waiting for me. Don't make her wait too long.”
Little Qing laughed: ”Anyway, after I had my sister-in-law, big brother had already forgotten about me.”
Shen Yun rubbed her head. The brother and sister separated, but after walking a few steps, his brother called her down.
”What is it?” Shen Qing asked.
”In the past few days, no matter the occasion, do not come into contact with that Prince of Xiluo.” Shen Yun said, ”Don't let anyone see it, what misunderstanding.”
”Misunderstanding what?” Shen Qing asked.
”I'll tell you later.” Shen Yun refused to answer.
”I know it even if you didn't say it.” But her little sister, Linglong, came forward and asked softly, ”So you're finally going to find someone to make you a friend, right?”
”Not necessarily. Right now, the thing that the Emperor is more interested in is seeing the fleet from Xiluo.” Shen Yun laughed, ”If there is a chance, brother will bring you and your sister-in-law to have a look, the legendary Sea Lion.”
Little Qing could not imagine it, ”How can we fight at sea?”
Shen Yun laughed and said, ”I am also very curious, there is a mountain outside the mountain, and my Daqi is merely a hegemon.”
Three days later, this news reached Wei Tengfei's ears. Although the emperor had not sent anyone to tell him about it, Wei Tengfei himself had spies in the capital, and he had no intention of becoming enemies with the emperor. The emperor had never wanted to touch this uncle of his, but they were both prepared for each other, and it wasn't a bad thing.
When Xiaowan brought the prepared food over to the general, he frowned as if he had a heavy load on his mind. She placed the food down gently and said, ”General, you should remember to eat while it's warm.
