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 arrangent 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 , 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 so 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!"
The people inside imdiately tensed up. The servants there were the most terrified because they were worried that sothing bad would happen when the two of them t. After all, the two of them were from different sides.
At least, they used to be from different side.
Prince Wei Da Fan was dressed in his Imperial clothing. However, the accessory was sowhat lacking as he didn't have any intention to dress so grandly in his residence. However, it was still necessary for him to show his status when he was in front of others.
No matter what, he used to be part of the Royal Family.
No one dare slighted him.
"Your Majesty." When Prince Wei Da Fan saw who was coming, he quickly knelt down. Even though he knew that he used to be the noble prince in Wei Da Kingdom, he never truly felt that he was treated as prince.
With so many of his siblings were more capable than him, he was basically an eyesore in the eyes of his father. Facing their sches and repeated pits, Prince Wei Da Fan was utterly helpless.
The so called prince title seed to mock him more than giving him honor.
But other people would never be able to understand his pain. The pain of not being accepted and being strangled by his own family mbers. And it was also because of this that Prince Wei Da Fan felt that being secluded here is better.
So nobles ca to him and Prince Wei Da Fan always said that he never wanted the throne be it implicitly or explicitly.
He didn't want to fight again.
Being used by his brothers through so many sches, he only felt relief when he heard that they were dying one by one when their father wanted to use them to influence the people or when they tried to run away.
Now in the face of the new Emperor whom he had to serve, Prince Wei Da Fan didn't have any unwillingness.
He was just a lowly prince.
And for him, being treated as a nonexistent person is much better than going to the fire and fought again.
It was tiring.
"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 so tense movent that would exist when one t soone of higher rank, there was no trace of unwillingness nor resentnt.
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 sothing 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 beco 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 ti 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 ca.
He was acting as Emperor Yang Zhou's subordinate and would act in accordance to it.
"The other generals. Have there been any arrangent 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 so commanders who are detained in their house as house arrest and hadn't been determined whether they can be reused or not."
