Chapter 313: The Third Layer
After this simple episode, Leo finally walked into the Palace of Kings for the first time in his life, where the Emperor lived and worked every day. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
If there is one word to describe Leo's description of this palace in his heart at this moment, then there are only two words that are most appropriate, and that is - magnificent!
A style that is completely in line with the world's first power, a style that is brilliant and dizzying! Even every brick, tile, grass and tree has two words written on it - magnificent!
On the first floor of the palace was a complete hall, and in the middle of the hall was a high platform with a golden throne, which Leo knew from the attendants that this was the place where His Majesty the Emperor consulted with his ministers every day on matters of state.
Leo followed the waiter to the second floor, where the second floor of the King's Hall was divided into two parts, one of which was enclosed for His Majesty's dining room, and the other part of the hall, which was supposed to be a reception room or something, was now crowded with guests in costume, like a vegetable market.
"Is that all there are to watch?" Leo asked the waiter in front of him with some curiosity. There were actually hundreds of guests on this floor, but in Leo's opinion, it was obvious that the celebration held by the continent's number one power with great fanfare should not be just invited to watch the ceremony.
The waiter didn't stop, turned half of his body and said to Leo in a very respectful tone: "Back to Lord Leo, in fact, the entire second to sixth floors have been used to accommodate the guests watching the ceremony. ”
"I see." Leo nodded, and glanced at the noisy crowd in the hall on the second floor, and a sense of superiority arose spontaneously - look at you, even if you stay, you can only stay at the bottom of the second floor, what a failure!
However, after two minutes, Leo couldn't laugh anymore, because the waiter in front of him had stopped and made a "please" gesture to Leo very decently and respectfully: "Lord Leo, please go in and wait for the ceremony to begin." ”
Leo's mouth opened wide, and he looked at the hall in front of him, which was also composed of two interconnected branch halls, "Are you sure this is it?" ”
"Yes." The court attendant nodded affirmatively and said, "Absolutely, my lord." ”
Leo's face instantly turned an iron blue, if the anger in his heart could ignite the object, then the waiter in front of Leo at this moment had definitely been burned to ashes.
The waiter had already said that the second to sixth floors of the King's Hall were the places where many VIPs watched the ceremony, and according to common sense, there was no doubt that the higher the guest status, the more honorable the status, and the number of the floor that Leo was currently assigned to was - three.
That's right, the third layer of the King's Hall is slightly better than the second layer with the lowest status.
If in Leo's personal capacity, a mere middle-level cultivator is already fortunate to be able to come to the scene of the ceremony in the Palace of Kings, and if he wants to have any objections to his treatment, it will be quite a bit of a shame.
But is Leo just an ordinary mid-level cultivator? Apparently not.
This time, Leo is an envoy commissioned by the Pope and appointed by the Church of Light to participate in this celebration! However, such an identity is only assigned to the third layer?
You must know that the Church of Light is a super sect with the blessing of the Supreme God of Light and nearly 10 million believers! Such a force cannot be ignored or ignored by any country on the mainland, and it is not an exaggeration to even call it one of the top forces on the mainland!
Not to mention anything else, as long as it is an envoy sent by the Church of Light, even if the Ollie Empire and the Jimny Empire in the three major empires of the continent will be treated as guests by those two emperors with the same status as Charles XVI, but in the Church of Light, the Sbanney Empire itself, which has been operating for a full three hundred years, only has a place in the third layer with the second lowest status?
This can no longer be described by words such as "unfriendly" and "disrespectful", which is simply an obvious contempt!
Even though he knew in advance that the royal family would be contemptuous of himself because of his status as an envoy of the church, when the matter really came to him, Leo found that he still underestimated the determination of the royal family.
Leo exhaled a long breath, his right hand clenched into a fist, his knuckles were pinched and pale, and his face was gloomy: "You guys are provoking." ”
No matter how much Leo disagrees with the Church of Light in his heart, anyone will think so at this moment - Leo represents the church, and an insult to Leo is an insult to the church!
Again, although Charles XVI's slap slashed the face of the church, it hit Leo in the face firmly!
At this moment, a mockery that could not be seen again suddenly came from the stairs behind Leo: "Look at that church guy, he was assigned the third floor, hahaha!" An inferior person is an inferior person. has a father and a mother, but they want to say that they were created by God, do you think there is something wrong with these people's brains? A burst of laughter followed, which sounded harsh to Leo's ears.
Leo slowly turned his head and noticed a familiar face—Emmanuel, the Grand Prince of the Empire, surrounded by several flattering aristocratic men, pointing at him and making a sneering sound.
"Oh?" Leo, who was worried that he had no place to vent his anger, finally found his target this time, and immediately raised his eyebrows, and issued a sharp counterattack: "It turned out to be someone who lost to me in a duel." Why, do the defeated generals dare to point fingers at the victors in these years? ”
"You!" This time it was Emmanuel's turn to be so angry that he couldn't speak, no matter how much Emmanuel didn't want to admit it in his heart, but the duel that day was watched by many people and instantly spread throughout the entire Ridmar City, and he couldn't deny it at all.
However, Emmanuel's mood immediately improved again, and he spat heavily at Leo: "Phew, even if you have sharp teeth, what if you can't just stay here?" You all go up with this prince, this prince can't wait to enjoy the pleasure of trampling this church envoy under his feet, haha! ”
After a burst of laughter, Emmanuel led several of his nobleman's henchmen up the stairs.
Leo's face became even more gloomy, and he snorted heavily, and the anger in his heart had reached its peak.
Of course, Emmanuel didn't have the ability to really trample Leo under his feet, otherwise the winner of the duel between the two would have been Emmanuel instead of Leo.
So Leo knew very well in his heart that Emmanuel's so-called "stepping on his feet" meant that he was going to a higher floor than Leo.
A person who is on the fourth floor, even the fifth and sixth floors, and other higher floors, can't he "step underfoot" Leo on the third floor?
Not only that, but many people in the hall had already noticed the change here, and the sound of small discussions was endless, and it was impossible to know how many of them were words of sympathy and support for Leo - because there must not be a single one.
With the exception of Leo, all the other guests were placed on the floor that matched their status, so of course there was nothing to complain about in these third floors.
Not to mention, most of these guests were nobles and belonged to His Majesty the Emperor's natural allies. Discriminatory and ridiculed attitudes towards people in the Church in His Majesty's territory are called political correctness.
"Very good." Leo nodded, glanced at the direction of Emmanuel's departure, and reached out to pat the court attendant in front of him, who had been leading the way dutifully: "Tell your emperor, whether it is the Holy Sect or I Leo personally, we have recorded this 'affection'. ”
After saying this, Leo walked into the hall on the third floor of the King's Palace.
Leo's face was so calm that it looked as if nothing had happened.
What few people know is that when a volcano erupts, it is also the moment when it is at its quietest.
