Chapter 225: The Triumph of the Great Army (Seeking Praise)
When everyone was cheering and celebrating, Zhuge Yao was busy collecting the loot, and no one paid attention to it at all. Although the bottomless sinkhole was destroyed, there were many things to collect in addition to the spirit treasures and mecha components left in the battle, except for some laws that must be handed over to the empire.
The dimensional space of the mecha is very large, but it is only a short time, and it is already full. These include a large number of recovery potions, as well as a variety of bizarre elixirs, plus some special steel.
After the completion of the work, Zhuge Yao drove the mecha with satisfaction and joined the cheers. When everyone calmed down and cleaned up the battlefield, they found that there was not much loot left on the battlefield that could be scraped.
In the royal conference room of the imperial capital, the emperor and the ten old patriarchs of the great nobles were discussing the triumphal ceremony.
There was nothing to talk about in this matter, the emperor's Chrysostom had been opened, and it was impossible to change it easily. It's just that the people of the Ten Great Families, citing the huge attrition of the war, refused to pay for the triumphal ceremony.
The situation in the imperial treasury, because of the attrition of the war, has long bottomed out. It is simply impossible to support the triumphal ceremony alone, that huge expense.
In desperation, the old emperor had to call the old patriarchs of the ten major families to discuss countermeasures. The empire also relies on the support of the ten major families, and the betrayal of the other four families has already caused great damage to the empire.
Therefore, he can't use strong means, he can only compromise with the people of these families. Of the sixteen great aristocratic families in the imperial capital, four betrayed the empire, the people from the Zhuge family and the Huang family did not come, and the rest of the families were in the conference room.
"That's the case, General Li is a hero of the empire, we can't treat it badly." Li Congfeng told Li Aotian's achievements again in the conference room, hoping to attract the attention of the old patriarchs.
"Ahem." The old patriarch of the Cai family coughed lightly, and it seemed that he was about to return to the west.
Everyone looked over and thought that Cai Lao had something to say, but after waiting for a long time, there was no follow-up.
Cai Lao was embarrassed by everyone, and a flash of inspiration moved in his mind, and he said stubbornly: "It's okay for us to pay, but the person who accepts the triumphal ceremony, as long as it is not Li Aotian."
After hearing what Cai Lao said, the old patriarchs immediately discussed in a low voice, this proposal was too ridiculous. Li Aotian's record is obvious to all, who else can surpass it?
"Ahem." Lao Cai coughed lightly a few more times, attracting everyone's attention before continuing to speak: "Li Aotian's credit is indeed great, but it is because his credit is too great that we can't give him this ceremony."
His words were very vague, but everyone understood them, and they immediately thought of the meaning. Li Aotian is powerful and has an ace army in his hands, if he wants to rebel, all he lacks is the people's heart. Once the triumphal ceremony is accepted, the people's will will definitely be there, and then it will be there.
"Wow!" Not only the old patriarchs, but even Li Congfeng's face changed slightly after hearing these remarks.
Seeing that the effect he wanted had been achieved, Cai Lao continued: "I think Zhuge Yao, this kid is not bad, the secret stronghold was discovered by him, and his performance in the battle is also very good. Most importantly, we all watched him grow up, which was reassuring! ”
"Okay, I agree." The old patriarchs agreed, and they didn't even think about it, so that they could see what a little kid could do?
"Hmm!" Li Congfeng thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "Okay then!" The triumphal ceremony was done according to Lao Cai's wishes. ”
The matter was so dramatically settled, as the biggest beneficiary of this meeting, Zhuge Yao was still patting Li Aotian's ass.
The army of the Dragon Knight Legion assembled outside the city, symbolically sent a team, and slowly walked towards the city.
Li Aotian walked in the forefront, naturally he was high-spirited, and he was as proud as he was. As a general, the triumphal ceremony is the highest honor that has not been achieved for a hundred years.
Until the people who came to greet him stopped Li Aotian and asked Zhuge Yao to lead the team into the city. His face suddenly fell, his hands were bruised, and his anger was unspeakable.
On a tall building in the outer city, Lao Cai Zheng and a mysterious person stood on it and looked into the distance. Both of them secretly sneered, looking at the welcoming team, wanting to watch a big show.
Li Aotian is also a person who has seen big scenes, and after thinking about it for a while, he immediately figured out the key points. The anger in the original stomach disappeared most of it immediately, and I almost fell into someone else's trap.
This trick is really insidious, it not only provokes the relationship between himself and His Majesty the Emperor, but also pulls the Zhuge family into the water. Of course, he wouldn't let some people succeed so easily, so he put on a smile.
Zhuge Yao has been following behind Li Aotian, and when he saw this kind of thing happening, he thought more than Li Aotian.
"Xiao Yao, let's go, let the people of the imperial capital see how majestic our Dragon Knight Legion people are!" After Li Aotian finished speaking, he patted Zhuge Yao's shoulder and laughed heartily.
"Okay, let's go!" Zhuge Yao and Li Aotian walked forward side by side, talking and laughing along the way, like brothers.
Zhuge Yao was a generation of war gods when he was in the first four, so he would not have stage fright in front of Li Aotian, let alone look so humble.
Citizens welcomed the city in the entrance lane, and when the army entered the city, flowers were thrown into the air. They cheered enthusiastically, cheering for the warriors of the Empire, and they were proud of it.
The team of the Dragon Knight Legion walked into the city mightily, and the steel torrent of the mecha became the most eye-catching scenery. Behind the ranks were also pulled, dozens of cartloads of booty, and a number of important prisoners.
Whether it is Tang Hao, or Xi Qian and Qiu Heizi who have come to their senses, they are all proud.
It's just that due to financial problems, this triumphal ceremony is almost everything simple. When the emperor Li Congfeng brought a small crown to Zhuge Yao and Li Aotian, it was announced that it was a temporary end.
In the evening, the Zhuge family also had to feast the citizens of the city, Zhuge Yao was rich and capricious, and he didn't take it seriously at all.
It was already late at night, and even in his busy schedule, Zhuge Yao did not forget to take the time to come out and go to the Ziyun Mecha Modification Club.
"Yao Shao, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are a lot stronger." A polite teenager had been waiting here for a long time, and Brother Jian was about to get off the flying car and immediately stepped forward to say hello.
This person's name is Qiu Shaogu, and he is a mecha modification enthusiast, and his skills in this area are very good. The two have known each other for a long time, but after Zhuge Yao became a soldier, their contacts gradually decreased.
