Zhao Zhigao followed the chamberlain into the palace and came to the gate of Fengyang Palace.

The chamberlain stopped in front of the door and said, "General Zhao, His Majesty is waiting for you in the palace."

Zhao Zhigao nodded, then opened the door and walked in.

Empress Li Qingying of Yi'an was wearing a red robe and sitting on the dragon chair on the stage of the palace.

Except for a close servant beside her, there was no one else in the hall.

"General Zhao, I heard that your daughter is traveling with her Immortal Master today. Can she leave now?" Li Qingying said lightly,

"Thanks to His Majesty's concern, my daughter has left home and returned to Taixu Palace." Zhao Zhigao said.

"I haven't seen your daughter for many years. The last time I saw her, she was in Yancheng." Li Qingying said,

When Zhao Zhigao heard Li Qingying mention Yan Cheng, his heart couldn't help but twitch.

"Speaking of Yan Cheng, do you still remember your old friend?" Li Qingying's upper body couldn't help but lean forward.

"I don't know which old friend your Majesty is asking about." Zhao Zhigao asked cautiously.

"Your best brother in Yancheng almost became my niece-in-law." Li Qingying said.

"Your Majesty is referring to Song Ye? I was still drinking with him last night - what I mean is to drink with his sacred tablet." Zhao Zhigao said,

"Do you still think that Song Ye is dead?" Li Qingying said,

"I saw Song Ye die in front of me with my own eyes. This is definitely not wrong." Zhao Zhigao said,

After all, Song Ye's God Master Tablets are still enshrined in his house. Zhao Zhigao will never believe that there are people in this world who have been resurrected from the dead.

"Absurd!" Li Qingying sneered, "Song Ye is still living happily in Yancheng, and was granted the title of Duke by the Yan State court. However, he did not receive the title in the end, maybe because of his consideration. It must be his identity as a subject of our country."

"That person is definitely not Song Ye." Zhao Zhigao said immediately, "I don't know why this person pretended to be 'Song Ye', but I can guarantee with my life that the real Song Ye has died long ago, and he died in front of me .”

"Are you saying that the 'Song Ye' in Yancheng now is fake?"

"It must be fake!" Zhao Zhigao said with great certainty,

"Impossible," Li Qingying said, "If he is fake, how could his sister not recognize him? After all, his sister Song Yan is now an immortal with powerful powers. Tell me, you have seen it with your own eyes. Song Ye died in front of you, that was just your one-sided statement, but was there a second person who also saw Song Ye die?"

"At that time...there was no one else around," Zhao Zhigao said.

"Did you know that not only is Song Ye still alive and well, he also has a daughter. There are rumors that Qingyu gave birth to his daughter before she died, but I know that is definitely not the case." Li Qingying said,

"Back then, when Qingyu was lying unconscious in Prince Xiang's Mansion, the doctor who took her pulse every day told me privately that Qingyu was no longer fertile, so how could she give birth to a daughter for Song Ye."

Of course, Li Qingying didn't know that what was lying in Prince Xiang's Mansion back then was just a humanoid skin and bones with Qin Xuanxi's appearance.

"So, Song Ye's current daughter will not be the daughter of Qing Yu, but should be the daughter of him and another woman. As for who this woman is, I don't care," Li Qingying continued, "Back then, Song Ye and Qing Yu Yu has not officially married, and now Qing Yu has passed away, so this person has nothing to do with our Li family anymore,"

"But you are different. You, Zhao Zhigao, are now the commander of the Longxiao Guard and are responsible for guarding the entire palace. You are very important to me,"

"Do you know why I summon you to the palace today to meet the saint?"

"I don't know." Zhao Zhigao shook his head and said,

"Recently, many ministers have submitted memorials, saying that you had a very good relationship with Song Ye in Yancheng, like brothers with different surnames. However, Song Ye is now on the fence with the Yan Kingdom, so the ministers feel that you may not be suitable to take responsibility anymore. It’s such an important position to guard the imperial city,” Li Qingying said.

Zhao Zhigao immediately knelt down and said, "I have always been loyal to Your Majesty and to our country, Yi'an."

Li Qingying said, "I naturally believe in your loyalty, and I am also very relieved to allow you to continue to serve as the commander of the Longxiao Guard. I called you here today just to give you a reminder, but you must not interact with Song If you have any further contact with Ye, even if it's just letters, otherwise I won't be able to protect you if you are caught by someone else."

Zhao Zhigao said with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will never have any dealings with that 'Song Ye' in Yancheng."

"Because in my opinion, the real Song Ye has died long ago,"

"Based on my understanding of Song Ye, if he had been alive ten years ago, when he learned about the death of Princess Qingyu, he would have committed suicide and would never have survived until now."

"I believe that the real Song Ye has already reunited with his beloved Princess Qingyu under Jiuquan."

Li Qingying could see a slightly sad look on Zhao Zhigao's face.

She also knew that Zhao Zhigao was a loyal person and there was no way he would make fun of his brother's death.

‘Could it be that ‘Song Ye’ in Yancheng is really fake? ’

Li Qingying couldn't help but feel doubts.

But whether Song Ye is real or fake seems to have nothing to do with her.

"General Zhao, no matter whether Song Ye is true or false, in order to avoid being caught by someone with ulterior motives, you'd better not have any contact with him again." Li Qingying reminded him again.

"I understand." Zhao Zhigao said.

"Okay, please step back, I'm tired."

"Yes!" Zhao Zhigao stood up and said.

After Zhao Zhigao walked out of Fengyang Palace, he immediately looked in the direction of Yan Cheng.

‘Brother Song, after I recapture Yancheng, I will personally come to your grave to have a drink with you! ’

At this time, Yancheng, Yan State, was the residence of Song Gonggong.

"Yawn!" Song Ye suddenly yawned. He shrugged his nose and cursed in his heart, 'Is someone cursing me behind my back? ’

At this moment, the sound of the game system suddenly appeared in his mind,

"Beep! The gate to the upper world will officially open in half an hour!"

"Players above level 120 please be prepared!"

Hearing this voice, Song Ye couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Five years, he had been waiting for five years, and the gate to the upper world finally opened.

"Now let's start fighting for the tickets to the Upper World Continent."

"Are you participating in the fight?"

Song Ye immediately chose [Yes],

Since there were no competitors, Song Ye automatically obtained the ticket to the Upper Realm Continent half an hour later.

After passing through the long boundary corridor, Song Ye finally came to the Upper Realm Continent again after an absence of five years.

But this time, he was not born in Xuantian's secret realm, but in a dark cellar.

The cellar was surrounded by tall, shirtless men, and their hands and feet were all heavily shackled, but Song Ye himself was naked like the last few times.

At this time, a man in armor walked in with a whip in hand and shouted, "You beasts, wake up, the buyers are here!"
