Chapter 383: Martial Saint Ji Xuanji
The venue of this birthday banquet is the Jinluan Hall of the Imperial Palace, the inside of the palace is the main field, and the outside of the hall is the outfield.
The Jinluan Hall is composed of 365 Nanmu as the main body, the golden tiles are paved with the top, the white jade railing is used as the pedestal, there is a huge night pearl hanging in the hall, and there are countless small night pearls around it, at a glance, it is like being under the starry sky.
In the middle of the Jinluan Hall is a high platform of vermilion lacquer about two meters high, on which is placed the throne of the carved dragon with gold lacquer, there are six golden pillars of the dragon on both sides of the square platform, on each golden pillar, there is a golden dragon coiled, the golden dragon looks lifelike, as if as long as one does not pay attention, the golden dragon will take off in the air!
Facing the gate, there is a long ladder with 999 steps, and down from the ladder, there is a wide square, and here, it is the outfield of the banquet.
Throughout the perimeter of the square, there are countless fire candles used to illuminate the entire square.
A red carpet divides the square in two, and around the red carpet, countless candles also stand for lighting.
Even if it's just an outfield, there are about 1,000 people here, about 100 tables!
In addition to some young disciples of the big family, some officials under the third rank are also in this outfield.
At this time, a lot of people had gathered in the outfield, but because of the birthday banquet, there was no noise here!
Ye Bai and Lei Meng walked on the red carpet, which immediately attracted the attention of these people in the outfield, and there was some commotion in the outfield in an instant, but the commotion only lasted for a while, and it immediately quieted down.
Even if it is a martial saint's birthday banquet, there are still rules that should be there.
Ye Bai glanced at the crowd, and swept to his uncle Jiang Boyao, as well as Jiang Weihe and those young people he had seen before, not only that, but he also felt the aura of no less than ten great grandmasters here!
It's just that these great grandmasters are just ordinary great grandmasters, plus they are not young people, so they are not qualified to participate in the main banquet!
Walking through the red carpet and stepping into the ladder, Ye Bai and Raymond entered the interior of the Jinluan Palace!
At this time, there are already some people in the Jinluan Palace!
Ye Bai looked at it at a glance and saw that there were two vacant seats on the high platform of the Jinluan Palace, one of which was placed in the middle of the high platform, and the other was placed on the left hand side of the high platform!
Prime Minister Jiang Ping, at this time, sat in a position on the right side of the high platform in the hall, opposite him, there was an empty seat.
Below the vacant seat, sat an old man in his fifties, dressed in a black suit, with a resolute face, his eyes closed, like a statue, sitting motionless!
Ye Bai knew that the other party was the current head of the Yang family, Yang Tianhua, the strength of the great grandmaster, and the current captain!
Below Jiang Ping, there is an old man who looks more similar to Raymond, dressed in a brown and yellow robe, with some white hair in his black hair, who looks like he has come up a little older, and is talking about something with Jiang Ping.
Ye Bai also knew the identity of the other party, the head of the Lei family, Lei Lin, Lei Meng's father, the strength of the great grandmaster, and the current Zongzheng!
On the opposite side of Lei Lin, there was another vacant seat, and below that vacant seat was Ye Bai's grandfather Jiang Biling.
Then, Ye Bai glanced at it again, and found an acquaintance in the crowd again.
Yicheng City Lord Jiang Bieli and Ancheng City Lord Ye Wudao, the two of them were sitting on the right side of a large hall with the other four great grandmasters, and some people had already gathered in that place.
Ye Bai and Lei Meng glanced at each other and walked towards the right side of the main hall!
As for the right side of the main hall, there is no one, only some vacant seats, and that place is the seat of the royal family!
It's just that until now, not a single person from the royal family has come!
Ye Bai sat in his place after parting with Jiang and nodding his head at Ye Wudao.
In a small corner on the right side of the main hall, as for Raymond, his treatment is similar!
And not long after, people gradually began to come on the right side of the main hall, most of whom Ye Bai had never seen, plus the six city lords of the main city, there were about twenty people on the right side.
Most of these are officials of the third rank or above in the court, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the pillars of the court!
And as the vacant seats around Jiang Ping were full of people, Ye Bai immediately cheered up, obviously, everyone had arrived!
Sure enough, it didn't take long for a group of people to enter the Jinluan Palace, led by the three princes, but Ye Bai except for the eldest prince, the other two couldn't tell who it was!
As for why, the reason is that the eldest prince is a little older than the other two!
After everyone on the right side sat down, Ye Bai found that a seat on the high platform was already occupied!
Yang You, the god of war who protects the country, no one knows how he appeared, without the slightest movement!
And at the moment when he saw Yang You, Ye Bai finally realized that something was wrong!
It seems that at this birthday banquet, Yang You's identity is about to be exposed, no wonder the other party told himself so easily!
Ye Bai shook his head and was silent!
"The king has arrived!"
At this time, the call of the guards was heard both inside and outside the Jinluan Palace, and people stood up from their seats one after another!
He bowed his head and said, "I've seen Your Majesty!"
The sound is loud and resounding throughout the world!
The Great Zhou does not bother to bow down, but pays attention to kneeling to the sky and kneeling to the parents, and for officials and kings, as long as they bow their hands.
Unless some sin wears them, they will be asked to bow down!
"Get up!"
An old voice came into Ye Bai's ears, making Ye Bai slightly stunned!
This voice!
Ye Bai shouted in his heart, if he was not mistaken, this voice should be the voice that accosted him when he first entered the capital!
At that time, there was a person who accosted him, but after knowing his identity, he disappeared.
At that time, Ye Bai was frightened by this voice, and hurriedly asked Jiang Boyo to go back to Jiang's house quickly.
And now, the voice is there again!
Ye Bai raised his head and glanced at the figure on the high platform.
It was an old man over half a hundred years old, with silver hair, a weather-beaten face, two deep-set eyes, deep and bright, and he looked very divine!
Standing on the high platform, although the body is rickety, it is like the only light between the whole heaven and earth to attract attention!
seemed to notice Ye Bai's gaze, the old man also turned his head to look at Ye Bai, in those eyes that had been deeply buried by the vicissitudes of time, there seemed to be a flash of brilliance, and the brilliance flowed, as if the whole world was in his eyes!
This one is the martial saint of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Ji Xuanji!
