Chapter 232: Queue Up

Li Heng smiled softly at the battle against Bingxue, and then instructed the palace to prepare two sedan chairs, one for himself to sit on, and one for Mo Ruolan to sit.

It was also a helpless move for them to take a sedan chair to the palace, and now the streets were too lively and bustling, if the three of them walked over, they would definitely be drowned in the surging crowd, and they were afraid that they might not be able to reach the palace in two hours.

But sitting in a sedan chair is different.

Each palanquin in the palace has a sign, and after the people recognize it as the palanquin of Prince Gong's mansion, they will automatically give way to a passage and let them pass.

If the popularity of the old emperor can rank first in Xia Luo City, then the second place must be Yuan Wenlong, who is also a god-like figure in the minds of the people of Yanlian Country, and his popularity is not much worse than that of the old emperor.

"Ho, it's really not ordinarily lively," the three sedan chairs walked steadily in the endless flow of people, although every street was full of people, shoulder to shoulder, but as long as the people saw the three sedan chairs passing, they would consciously get out of the way and let the sedan chair pass.

Even if there were foreign tourists who didn't recognize the sign of Prince Gong's Mansion and refused to give way, they were forcibly dragged aside by others, and at the same time scolded: "This is the palanquin of Prince Yuan's family in Yanlian Country, how dare you not give way?"

Li Heng opened the curtains slightly, observing the scene outside through the gaps, and when he saw the scenes of singing and dancing, and thunderous laughter, he couldn't help but smack his tongue.

"I have to say that the battle mystery will definitely leave a heavy mark in the history of the Yan Lian Kingdom, the old emperor has worked hard all his life, in order to be famous for all generations, and leave a name in history, right?"

Although he didn't know what Li Zhan Xuanji was feeling in his heart, Li Heng could roughly guess that the old emperor must be very happy in his heart.

......

......

Prince Gong's mansion was not too far from the palace, but it was only half an hour before they appeared at the gate of the east palace of the palace.

There were too many people on the street, and the sedan chair driver was afraid of bumping into children running around, so he walked very slowly, and when they came to the east palace gate, it was already overcrowded, and the lively scene was not inferior to the street at all.

The envoys of various countries and the officials of various towns in the Yanlian Kingdom together were almost more than 3,000 people, and there were nearly 1,000 officials from all over the country who entered the palace from the east gate.

In addition to these officials, there were still nearly a thousand soldiers of the Red Shirt Army and the Yanlong Legion guarding around the palace gate, watching everyone's every move with a pair of sharp and solemn eyes.

Yan Lianguo has been preparing for today's birthday banquet for a long time, and the security measures are not sloppy at all.

Two of the most elite troops, the Red Shirts and the Flame Dragons, worked hand in hand to sweep away all the reactionary forces hidden in Charlotte for several days.

In the past half a month, at least 2,000 people have been arrested, more than 1,000 people have been secretly killed, and the rest of the traitors have been locked up in Dali Temple to wait for treatment.

Most of these cultivators who were ready to assassinate the old emperor were martial cultivators, and the most powerful ones were only Jindan stage cultivators, and there was no cultivator above the spirit infant stage.

Because the real cultivators are all Qing Li, at this moment, the Xuanyin Demon Palace is sitting in Xia Luo City, which sect has eaten the bear's heart and leopard gall, and dares to oppose the Xuanyin Demon Palace at this time.

The lessons of Songshan Academy and Sumeru Buddhism are seen by everyone in the heterogeneous cultivation world.

"Bing Xue, how many people are there at today's birthday banquet?" Li Heng looked at the queue to be inspected, and asked with a smile.

"There are nearly 2,000 officials from all over the country, and there are nearly 1,000 envoys from various countries, plus the wealthy merchants of the Nine Desolations and 6, the heads of the major families, and the imperial relatives of our Yanlian Country, there are almost 6,000 people in total. ”

"Hey, there are so many people, you can't sit in any palace in this palace, right?" Mo Ruolan interjected with a smile.

"Hmm. ”

Zhan Bingxue grinned, and said with some pride: "Father's birthday, these Nine Desolations 6 characters with heads and faces generally come back... The venue of the banquet is the square in front of the Taihe Palace, which is very large and can accommodate 20,000 people, not to mention 6,000 people. ”

"Look at you. Li Heng smiled and naturally took her hand.

Zhan Bingxue shook his head very comfortably, took Li Heng's hand, turned his head to Mo Ruolan beside him and said, "Sister Ruolan, let's go in, I can arrange seats for you." ”

"Hmm. ”

Mo Ruolan nodded and smiled softly, looking at the hands of the two of them clasped together, she didn't know whether it was envy or something else in her eyes.

......

At the entrance of the East Palace of the Yan Lian Kingdom!

Heavily armed soldiers, armed with spears or steel knives, all stood around with expressionless faces, no expressions of joy or pleasure on their faces, some just indifference and indifference.

There was no trace of anger in their eyes, they just silently watched the endless flow of people, carefully guarding every entrance, and a solemn momentum made the hearts of officials everywhere tremble.

Some officials are not qualified to come to Charlotte City in their lifetime, if it is not for the emperor's birthday, as long as they are officials above the seventh grade, they can come to celebrate their birthdays, how can the officials of those small towns see the palace with thousands of weather, and how can they see such elite soldiers.

As long as these officials saw the elite soldiers guarding the palace gates, they would not have any other thoughts in their hearts except awe.

At the same time, these people are very proud, because their country is so powerful, so strong that they can sit back and relax in front of their parents everywhere, and they don't have to worry about being destroyed by other countries one day.

.........

There are three entrances to the main entrance of the East Palace, and Li Heng saw it at a glance, but there was something abnormal.

At the two entrances on the left and right, like a long dragon, there is a group of officials wearing official uniforms, all the way from the palace gate to the street corner, and each long dragon is at least composed of nearly a thousand people.

But there were very few people queuing up at the palace gate in the middle, only a few hundred people, and most of them were very young, and a few of them were not even as old as Li Heng.

"Bing Xue, what's going on? Those people queuing up at the middle palace gate shouldn't be officials from all over the world, right? Could it be your imperial relatives of the Yan Lian Kingdom?"

Zhan Bingxue nodded and smiled: "Brother Li is right, they are all relatives of the emperor, but the relatives of the emperor are also divided into ranks, and the real relatives of the Zhan family entered the palace as early as the morning, so why should they line up here?"

And they all just rely on the blessings of their ancestors, hereditary kings, usually eat the court's money, and they all have ways to make money, and standard rich idlers. ”

Li Heng smiled slightly and asked, "Bingxue, how can the three of us get in?"

Mo Ruolan rolled her eyes at him, and said with a smile: "We are neither officials nor relatives of the emperor, what else can we do besides queuing?"

Zhan Bingxue smiled writhingly, and said with a playful smile: "These soldiers don't care who we are, and they may not recognize me, so if we want to go in, we can only line up." ”

Li Heng smiled dumbly, took out the token of Prince Gong's Mansion, divided two for Zhan Bingxue and Mo Ruolan, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I still have the token of Prince Gong's Mansion, otherwise it would be really not easy to go in to celebrate the old man's birthday." ”

"Hee-hee!"

Zhan Bingxue smiled playfully, took Li Heng's hand and walked towards the palace gate in the middle, and looking at her posture, she didn't seem to be ready to line up.

"Girl, cutting in line is bad behavior... Well, of course, it's not a big deal. ”

Mo Ruolan followed behind the two, and when she saw that they didn't line up, she walked straight in the direction of the palace gate, and a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of her mouth, "Tsk, my dignified future giant of Momen actually followed them to make trouble, if this spreads, the prestige of our Momen will really plummet." ”

As soon as Zhan Bingxue and Mo Ruolanfu appeared in front of the group of hereditary feudal kings, the queue immediately broke out in a riot.

Zhan Bingxue and Mo Ruolan are too beautiful, especially the man's eyes, all staring at the two of them, with undisguised heat and admiration in their eyes.

The women, on the other hand, first showed a look of jealousy, and then they all seemed to change their faces, showing disdainful expressions, and a few young girls were still cursing in a low voice, obviously dissatisfied because they had been robbed of the limelight.

But then, this group of feudal kings from all over the Yan Refining Country were stunned.
