Chapter 344: State Banquet
Urging the main ship, Rong Qing and Jiu Taibao quickly sailed towards the ship formation in front. Gradually getting closer, Rong Qing saw that on the main ship in front of him, there was also a man in brocade clothes. This man is not tall and does not appear to be strong, but his bearing is deep, and he is even higher than the Nine Taibao. Beside him, there were also five men with long breaths and a united breath. Rong Qing arched his hand and said: "In Xia Rongqing, it is the princess of Chuyang in the east of the Great Jin River! ”
With this look, Rong Qing deduced the heritage of these island countries. This brocade-clothed man is also a peak martial saint cultivator, and he is between Zhong Bo and the Seven Founding Saints of Middle Earth, but his physique is strong, and he is obviously the kind that has spiritual weapons. This island country, its power is also equivalent to one of the three parts of the world, which is also quite good. Of course, this is the atmosphere of one of the great powers among the island nations of the East China Sea.
"It turned out to be the princess of Zhongzhou Shangbang, and she was far away! Xia Guan Ao came to the national teacher Peng Hou and met Her Royal Highness the princess. The man in brocade bowed to Rong Qing and returned the salute, with a little surprise in his eyebrows. Because Rong Qing's cultivation is obviously above him, it seems that he is close to the bearing of a human immortal. Peng Hou, as a national teacher of Aolai Country, is also a person with vision, and at the same time, when he saw the Nine Taibao standing behind her, he was even more shocked in his heart.
Ao Lai Guo does not have a Dao weapon, and the momentum on this Ninth Taibao is obviously a figure of a blood sacrifice aisle!
Rong Qing asked Jiutai to sacrifice Xuansi with blood, not really to fight, but to create an illusion of possessing Dao weapons.
"In the end, it is the state of the Heavenly Empire, and today Peng Hou is really an eye-opener. But Peng Hou quickly calmed down, and after the two ships approached only a few dozen feet, he made a "please" gesture to Rong Qing. Rong Qing also made a "please" gesture, and then the two ships drove side by side, heading towards the largest island in front of them. Peng Hou found that the oars of the big ship under Rong Qing's feet were strange, but out of etiquette, he asked more, so he just lowered his head and groaned.
By dusk, the sea had been plated orange by the setting sun. Rong Qing and Jiu Taibao got off the big ship, and their entourage and military horses also lined up and followed behind. Peng Hou also got off the ship, so he had the opportunity to walk to Rong Qing's side, and arched his hand: "I don't know why the princess went out to patrol the East China Sea and came to the lower country?" Rong Qing said: "It's just because the East China Sea Guli was instigated by others to disturb my Jiangdong coast." Therefore, I have come to visit the lords of the country, and I want to unite the sea area and calm the troubles in the East China Sea. ”
"I see. On the East China Sea, there are many islands, dragons and snakes are mixed, and I have always wanted to unite the islands, but my national strength is limited, so I can't do it. Peng Hou nodded, showing a look of approval, "In that case, the princess, please go to the palace with the lower officials to explain." Now that I am proud to be the young lord of the country, I have ascended to the throne for the first time, and the lower official is a minister who trusts the orphans, and he can be the master with full power. As long as the lord of the country is revealed, he will be able to help His Highness!"
"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly, could it be that the hero saw it the same way?" Rong Qing was overjoyed for a while, she really didn't expect that she would be proud for the first time, and it would be done.
But Peng Hou said: "Your Highness, don't be too happy. Among the countries of the East China Sea, Aolai is only one of them, and there are only a dozen islands under its jurisdiction, and they do not have the ability to say anything. That beautiful stick relies on Beilu Ruzhen, and it is very wild in the East China Sea, if they are honest this time, it can be regarded as a great merit for the East China Sea!"
Peng Hou said, got on the horse with Rong Qing, and headed towards the city in front of him.
Rong Qing didn't know that Ju Liguo was actually pretending to be a tiger in the East China Sea, which made him complain. There is a saying that people will die if they die, and it seems that even if Rong Qing doesn't make a move, someone will naturally teach them a lesson.
The cavalry marched into the city of Aolai, and Rong Qing found that the island nation was built quite well. This main island is also as big as half of Xian County, but because of geographical reasons, there is only this one in the main city, but it is also built tall and majestic, although it is not as good as the royal city of Chuyang, but it is also much more elaborate than the general county town of Dajin. On the way, Rong Qing saw that the streets were full of shops, hawkers, and pedestrians, and for a while he felt like he had left the ocean and returned to the interior.
In fact, as early as the Qin and Han dynasties, the country of Middle-earth was strong, and these islands in the East China Sea were also subject countries of the Celestial Empire. Therefore, the etiquette and culture of these island countries have also been transmitted from Zhongzhou. It's just that later, Zhongzhou was divided into three parts of the world, and the civil war was not chaotic, so it was beyond the reach of the whip, and these island countries became more and more independent. Later, although Dajin won the world, the national style was weak, so for more than a hundred years, the prestige of these island countries was not taken into account.
Until now, Juli actually sent troops to fight against Zhongzhou, and if Rong Qing didn't make a move, it would really be unreasonable.
When the son grows up, he wants to be independent, and he will naturally not object to being Lao Tzu. But your wings are stiff, and you actually shoot your own Lao Tzu, then Lao Tzu has to teach you a lesson! The Celestial Empire is now at home, and you don't want to be Lao Tzu anymore, so this Lao Tzu has no choice but to let Rong Qing be the one. The country of sticks thinks that it is a big country, and if it wants to build the return of Zhongzhou, Rong Qing has to make their heads sober up: you only have the life of a son.
Before arriving at the main hall of the palace, Rong Qing and Peng Hou got off their horses and saw that a red carpet had been laid on the long stairs in front of them. The neatly dressed and expressionless pro-soldiers stood on both sides of the avenue like stone statues, Peng Hou stretched out his hand to Rong Qing and said, "Please!" Rong Qing also smiled slightly: "Please." The two walked side by side, stepping forward. Entering the gate of the main palace, the entourage of both parties remained outside the main hall and stood staggered.
Rong Qing and the Nine Taibao walked into the main hall with a length and width of more than ten zhang and a height of three zhang, and the two heavy doors were slammed shut. On both sides of the main hall, there are also eight dragon pillars carved with four-clawed golden pythons, which appear to be majestic, and there are hundreds of courtiers in two classes, one black and one is black, standing on both sides of the court, all bow down slightly. And at the end of the two classes of courtiers stood a man between thirty and forty years of age, with clear eyebrows and a white beard.
This man is dressed in the same Ming and Huang court clothes as Rong Qing, wearing a high crown on his head, and he is only a junior martial saint in terms of martial arts cultivation, but he has a temperament of ruling a state and being calm. Apparently he is the lord of the Aolai country. After seeing Rong Qing, the lord of the country smiled, and walked with Rong Qing to greet each other, and the two finally came together in the middle of the court. "The princess of Tianzhou came to our island, and Ao Mou missed the welcome and forgave her sins in person. ”
"How dare you. Rong Qing came abruptly, and asked His Highness not to mind. Rong Qing smiled slightly, and the lord of Aolai had already taken her hand and walked on the main case. At this time, he did not sit behind the main case, but avoided the seat and sat on the left side, Rong Qing also avoided the seat and sat on the right side, while Peng Hou and Jiutaibao Ji Guang did not retreat to the courtiers, but sat beside their respective lords, revealing their transcendent status.
The court case is very lenient, so there are four people sitting at the table, and it doesn't look crowded at all.
"This is ......" The lord of the Aolai Kingdom saw the Nine Taibao Ji Guang, his eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but ask. Rong Qing said: "This is the son of my Uncle Da Jin, the ninth Taibao Ji Guang, and the palace is the same brother, Enruo brother." The lord of the Aolai country praised: "Sure enough, it is the heavenly kingdom, and the real tiger minister is also." The widow has lived on a desert island for a long time, thinking that the national strength is not weak, but now that he has to see the princess and the minister, he knows that there is a sky outside the sky, and this life is not in vain. ”
"Come on, prepare a state banquet, and catch the wind for the princess!"
Airplanes...... After a trombone, the palace court had already neatly walked out of the inner chamber, gave a soft couch, a table, and invited the ministers of civil and military affairs to sit down one by one. In a short time, the orchestra is ready, the silk and bamboo are around, and the wine banquet is ready. Rong Qing and the lord of Aolai also paid homage to each other, and they were very emotional. She originally thought that on this island country, the people must be simple, but the etiquette is not as good as Zhongzhou, but when she sees it today, it is a different world, and it is completely an independent small court.
