Chapter 424: Following the Wind (1)
When the carriage was about to reach the city gate, they saw a team parked there from afar. At the front of the team were a few luxurious carriages, and both sides of the road were filled with commoners. Many officials blocked the commoners from approaching.
Shen Yijia lowered the curtain.
It seemed that they could only enter after that team entered the city.
Mo Yuan stopped the carriage by the side. Without needing them to ask, they heard the commoners discussing.
"As expected of the Xuanyuan Kingdom. Look, that carriage is filled with gems."
"I heard that not only is the emperor’s favorite Third Prince here, but even Lord Jing’an is here."
Who was Lord Jing’an? He was the younger brother of the emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.
The previous emperor of the Xuanyuan Kingdom died suddenly. The emperor was only 15 or 16 years old when he took over.
Because he was young, the imperial court of the Xuanyuan Kingdom had been controlled by cunning officials for a long time. The emperor was almost overthrown.
This situation lasted for five to six years before it was turned around by the two brothers. Later on, the Emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom conferred the title of Lord on his brother, who was on par with the Emperor.
