In the middle of summer, the weather should be extremely hot, but although the Yue Country was located to the west, it was slightly north and the climate was cool, making it very suitable for use. In the Yue Country's palace, it was still filled with the sounds of birds chirping and the fragrance of flowers.
"Those who love their loved ones do not dare to be unkind to others. Those who respect their loved ones do not dare to be slower than others. Worship is on the side of kinship, and moralism is on the side of the people, and punishment is in the four seas. The filial piety of the Son of Heaven. "
In the imperial garden, Shang Zhiqing was holding the [Filial Tactics], reciting the first verse of the school and teaching the little Emperor her way to be filial to the children of the heavens. Jun Changyou sat obediently in the pavilion, his eyes fixated on the opened "Filial Classic" in front of him, and obediently followed Shang Zhiqing to read.
"Have you learned this?" Shang Zhiqing asked with a serious expression.
Jun Changyou nodded obediently, with admiration and fondness showing in his eyes. He nodded and said seriously: "I learnt it."
Hearing that, Shang Zhiqing lowered her head again and continued to read the next paragraph. Qi Yun slowly walked over with a fan in hand.
"They have already entered the borders of the Yue Country, and I believe it won't be long before they enter the capital of the Yue Country." The handsome Qi Yun said leisurely. She did not seem to care much about Xuanyuan Chen and the others coming over, as she did not feel any sense of nervousness or coercion.
Hearing Xie Qingrong's news, Shang Zhiqing's eyes lit up, but quickly dimmed down, and looked towards the side of the "Filial Scripture", saying indifferently: "Really? What does it have to do with me."
Qi Yun used his fan to hold onto Shang Zhiqing's chin, seeing the sadness in her eyes, he understood in his heart, and said jokingly: "A few days ago, you received news that they were coming to Yue Country, but they did not look so dejected. Why, do you not dare to see them? "Or is it that you don't dare to meet him?"
Shang Zhiqing brushed away Qi Yun's fan, a tinge of anger appearing between his brows, as if he was ashamed of having his thoughts exposed. He retorted somewhat vexedly: "You don't have to meddle in other people's business. Moreover, you should know the purpose of Prince Chen and the others coming to Yue Country. What, you're already prepared to give it up? "
Qi Yun's handsome eyebrows twitched, his shining peach blossom eyes revealed a charm that was completely inconsistent with his gentle temperament. A joke. Yue Country was not someone that they could come and go as they pleased. You might as well guess what kind of problems I'm going to give them. "
When he finished speaking, his gaze fell upon Jun Changyou, who was obediently sitting in the middle of the pavilion, and the slightly drowsy Jun Changyou felt a somewhat scorching gaze on him. Turning his head to look, his gaze made contact with Qi Yun's gaze, and Jun Changyou revealed a naive and sweet smile. Qi Yun pursed her lips, and a smile appeared on her face.
Seeing this, Shang Zhiqing curled her lips, she had already guessed Qi Yun's motive, and said uninterested: "Anyway, what you do is for your young emperor, this problem is actually very easy to guess. It just wants Xuanyuan Chen to sign the agreement that you've been preparing for a long time, in other words, it's all for one of Xuanyuan Chen's promise. "
"As expected of Shang Zhiqing, she's almost become a worm in my heart." Qi Yun leisurely waved his fan, looking extremely happy.
Shang Zhiqing rolled her eyes in disdain, but then she thought of something, and her expression quickly changed. She asked solemnly: "You don't want a good seat as the Patriarch of the Qi Family, yet you came to be this thankless Regent. What do you want?"
What? Qi Yun also wanted to ask himself what exactly he was plotting. The inside of the Qi Family was not like how it was seen by outsiders, where there were countless of blade lights, sword shadows, and hidden arrows that hurt people.
Giving up the position of Patriarch to become the Regent of the Yue Country and assisting the little emperor seemed to be even more difficult. It was just that with someone to protect him, he would be exhausted, and there wouldn't be anything bad about it.
Qi Yun's lips drew back into a faint smile, and within the smile, there was a hint of happiness. When Shang Zhiqing saw Qi Yun's smile, he could only shake her head helplessly.
"Pah!" A startling wooden sound rang out. In the restaurant on the second floor, a middle-aged man dressed like a scholar held a wooden block in one hand and a fan in the other.
"Do you know that tomorrow is the day after our Yue Country's Emperor's coronation ceremony? Speaking of this Yue Country Emperor, she can be considered quite a character, standing out from the crowd of princes and princes at such a young age …"
Xuanyuan Chen poured a cup of wine. A porcelain white wine cup, and a light purple wine color. It was said that this wine was specially brewed by the Yue Country. There was only one place in the world with no title.
After taking a small sip, the fragrance of the wine instantly filled his mouth and slid down his esophagus. It was extremely refreshing, and only after drinking it did he feel a faint burning sensation.
Shen Haoxuan saw that Xuanyuan Chen was enjoying the wine extremely much and was curious about the wine. Just as he was about to taste it, he heard the storyteller outside say that tomorrow would be the Yue Country Emperor's coronation ceremony.
"It's just a coronation ceremony. Why are you making such a big fuss over it?" Xie Qingrong said disdainfully as she held the wine cup.
"Princess, you don't know this. Royal Family of the State of Yue's battle was even more intense than that of the Heavenly Sage. Looking at the entire Heavenly Sage Kingdom, other than Xuanyuan Jing, there was no one else who could compete with Prince Chen. However, the Yue Country was different. The previous emperor of the Yue Country was extremely lustful and dissolute, there were at least dozens of this prince.
Moreover, this emperor was too young, he had pushed Qi Yun to become the Regent of the Yue Country, which was a power that was comparable to the imperial family. This little emperor of the Yue Country cannot be underestimated. "
Shen Haoxuan shook his head. He did not agree with what Xie Qingrong had said and gave an explanation.
"Oh?" Xie Qingrong raised her eyebrows, and said: "If what you said is true, since this Qi Yun has such abilities, why not establish herself as king and the Qi Family becomes the Royal Family of the State of Yue, is it not good? Why do you need to be the blade of the emperor's sword?"
"That's why I said that this is the little emperor's cleverness in being able to persuade Qi Yun and the Qi Family. All of these talents are well versed in strategy and strategy. " Shen Haoxuan said as she analyzed the situation, nodded her head, and agreed with what she said.
"You're wrong." Xuanyuan Chen denied Shen Haoxuan's words and said: "Yue Country Emperor Jun Changyou is a prince that has broken out of the siege of Royal Family of the State of Yue. Before this, I have never heard of his rumors.
"What do you mean?" Xie Qingrong asked.
Xuanyuan Chen drank all the wine in his cup in one gulp before continuing, "Perhaps Qi Yun is not ambitious, but this Qi Family will stand at the peak for a hundred years, even if it was grown by mutually supporting and nurturing the Yue Country Emperor.
How can it be possible for it to look as if it will stay out of worldly affairs? The Qi Family has been supporting the Sovereign King for generations, but the ambition for power and status that grew out of it has reached who knows how far. "
"If that's the case, then we'll see what's going on tomorrow." Shen Haoxuan suggested.
"Yes." Xie Qingrong and Xuanyuan Chen answered in unison. Coincidentally, they had the same intentions as him.
