Long Qian Xing cupped his fist. "Thank you very much, Your Majesty."
"You can rise." Emperor Yang Zhou walked to the middle of the main hall, looking at the decorations in the palace and sighed lightly. "Where's the survivor?"
"His Highness Prince Wei Da Fan is in the separate palace. There are guards guarding him." Long Qian Xing knew the arrangement for the other people who were left alive. Whether they could be reused or not would depend on their influence.
As of now, Prince Wei Da Fan is the only person who was left alive from Wei Da Kingdom's Imperial Family.
"I want to talk with him."
"Please follow me, Your Majesty."
Long Qian Xing then led Emperor Yang Zhou to the separate palace. The separate palace was still quite good and still looked like a proper palace rather than a prison. When he lived here, Prince Wei Da Fan should still be able to live in luxury.
Of course, his interaction with the outside world was limited and even when some nobles paid a visit, they were watched heavily. However, Prince Wei Da Fan had agreed to help pulling these previously unwilling nobles to be part of Fei Yang Kingdom.
After all, there was basically nothing else that he could do aside from submitting after he had lost all of his backing.
He had no siblings.
The other generals had basically submitted to Fei Yang Kingdom.
What else was the hope he would have left?
As Emperor Yang Zhou walked to the separate palace, the guard announced his arrival.
"His Majesty Emperor Yang Zhou has arrived!"
"Rise." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Prince Wei Da Fan in front of him and could see that the prince looked relaxed. Even though there was some tense movement that would exist when one met someone of higher rank, there was no trace of unwillingness nor resentment.
It was clear that Prince Wei Da Fan had accepted himself to be part of Fei Yang Kingdom.
"I would like to talk with him, you may leave."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Everyone walked away, leaving only Emperor Yang Zhou and Prince Wei Da Fan. Long Qian Xing waited outside, not even bothering to eavesdrop. He knew that the two of them have something to talk about.
After all, Emperor Yang Zhou was not a person who could obtain his throne easily like it was handed in the silver platter.
There were many infightings inside.
And Long Qian Xing had no intention of getting involved with politics and so on. He had already avoided it when he was in Fei Yang Kingdom, so when he was in Yi City, he would not get involved either.
Song Chuan could already become his representative.
Song Chuan, who was busy preparing the scroll, suddenly sneezed. He stared at the bamboo scrolls in front of him blankly, hoping that he would not be given another abundant task from Long Qian Xing again.
The last time he sneezed, he received news that Long Qian Xing felt that his work was too few and wanted him to work more.
Song Chuan shivered.
Back in Yi City, it didn't take long for Emperor Yang Zhou to finish his short talk with Prince Wei Da Fan. Long Qian Xing didn't ask anything and bowed his head when he saw Emperor Yang Zhou came.
He was acting as Emperor Yang Zhou's subordinate and would act in accordance to it.
"The other generals. Have there been any arrangement made?" Emperor Yang Zhou asked again.
Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. He was sure that the officials would have already given the report to the Emperor before. However, he still followed Emperor Yang Zhou's inquiry and answered.
"River General Kui is in prison with General Pan. The two of them are located separately and had been staying there for the past few days. There are also some commanders who are detained in their house as house arrest and hadn't been determined whether they can be reused or not."
