Chapter 13: The Boring Emperor
The banquet was held as scheduled, and Chi Tiancheng was also invited to the hall of the banquet, and His Majesty the King saw Chi Tiancheng's arrival and beckoned to him. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Then he motioned for everyone present to be quiet, and said, "This is a traveler from the East, who claims that the empire he lives in is very powerful, has a splendid culture, and is a symbol of the pinnacle. ”
A bearded man stood up and said: "Hahaha, it's a joke, if you want to say powerful, only the Great Persian Empire under your command is the most powerful existence!" ”
The king smiled with satisfaction, and the bearded man continued: "Now that we are fighting with India, our country has ushered in a victory, and the whole country is celebrating, and the eldest prince Tus has captured this holy city without blood today, which can be described as a joy and joy, which can only be done by a truly powerful empire, what is the Eastern Empire, forgive me for my ignorance, I have never heard of it." ”
"Well, well said!" His Majesty immediately laughed loudly, "He is right, successive victories, this is something that only a truly powerful empire can do, and this is the glory that belongs to Persia." ”
It's okay to brag about yourself, but the sentence behind him is simply redundant, and it sounds a little unpleasant to Chi Tiancheng, I haven't heard that it is indeed your ignorance, it is just your ignorance.
Chi Tiancheng looked at the crowd present and laughed, he was like a clown, the king's intention to bring him here seemed to be to laugh at him, it seems that this king does not seem to have a very big heart.
Chi Tiancheng is not a good stubble, since you want to laugh, then let you laugh enough, and the superpower is suddenly activated.
The bearded man was praised by His Majesty the King, and his heart was already happy, holding the wine glass high and about to pour it into his mouth, Chi Tiancheng immediately used his superpower to control the hand holding the wine glass, and with a sudden force, a whole glass of yellow-white milk wine was poured directly on his face, and even his beard was wet with milk wine, and it was dripping down his clothes.
After doing this quietly, Chi Tiancheng smiled secretly, and then withdrew his superpowers.
"Uh...... What's going on......" The bearded man was stunned, how could his left hand be uncontrollable, he subconsciously raised his left hand, everything was normal, but what was going on just now.
When other people saw this scene, although it was strange, they felt more ridiculous, and they pointed at the bearded man and laughed at him.
His Majesty felt that his face was a little unbearable, and he had just praised you, and now he will give me a foreign appearance, especially now that there are outsiders present
The king couldn't help coughing twice, and shouted in a displeased tone: "Don't retreat yet!" ”
"Eh, yes......" The bearded man also knew that he was out of shape, especially when His Majesty the King intended to show his national prestige in front of foreigners, he actually splashed the milk wine on his face, and poured it on his beard, and the yellow and white pieces were sticky together, which was as embarrassing as incontinence and wiping a handful of directly on his face.
"Makes you laugh." His Majesty smiled awkwardly at Chi Tiancheng.
"No, no, I have seen it now, and the Persian Empire is indeed as powerful." Chi Tiancheng said.
"Uh." His Majesty the King's face was cold, these words were simply naked mockery, he had always been reluctant to admit the strength of his empire before, and now when he saw his courtiers looking foreign, he said that he was powerful, this is not a mockery.
No matter how good his temper and kindness were, he was still angry, and just as he was about to have a seizure, Dastan walked in.
His Majesty the King saw that his mind changed slightly, and when he beckoned to Dastan, he said to Chi Tiancheng: "Let me introduce you, this is my third son, Dastan." ”
Then His Majesty the King said the lines from the movie again, which was nothing more than a compliment to Dastan, saying that although he was an orphan adopted from the slums, he was heroic, and had the appearance of a king, etc.
Perhaps because of Chi Tiancheng, the king intentionally or unintentionally wanted to emphasize the strength of his empire, and the words became a little more exaggerated, but the meaning was the same.
"Dastan, tell this foreign traveler how much time you spent and how many men you brought with you to break through the gates of this holy city." His Majesty the King glanced at Chi Tiancheng intentionally, but this time his eyes were no longer as friendly as before.
He already had murderous intentions towards Chi Tiancheng in his heart, but everything had to wait until after the banquet was over, after all, it was a time to celebrate, and he decided that even if he executed this traveler, he had to let him understand before he died, what kind of empire was the most powerful existence.
"Attacking the city at dawn and breaking down at dawn, my subordinates are not many, less than ten." Dastan was a little confused, but he answered truthfully.
Although the meaning of dawn and dawn are similar, the time of dawn is before dawn, when the sun has not yet come out, but there is light and can distinguish things, but when the dawn is broken, the sun has already come out, and if you want to count it, it may be less than an hour.
When Chi Tiancheng watched the movie, he also wanted to complain when he saw this scene, is a city not paper-paste, you alone attacked it with such fanfare, and then parkour broke the city gate all the way, it's just a bull's note.
But it's a movie, and that's it for dramatic effect.
Chi Tiancheng sneered in his heart, he no longer had a good impression of this so-called king when he entered this world last time, he didn't expect that he would care about this kind of thing, and he would deliberately take it out to tout, which is too ridiculous.
Seriously, is it interesting for you to blow these in front of me?
However, Chi Tiancheng didn't show it, but directly gave a thumbs up and said: "You are worthy of being the prince of the Persian Empire, you are really brave, and you deserve the title of Persian Lion!" ”
Dastan was praised like this, he actually lowered his head and smiled shyly, a rugged man, such a performance, it was really shocking.
His Majesty the King also smiled proudly, the reason why he did this was just his personal obsession, he was not the first emperor of Persia, he also knew how brilliant Persia was in the past, and in his hands, it was indeed not as good as before.
But what emperor doesn't want to be praised by others, making others feel that they are strong enough to lead a country to glory, even if it is a faint monarch, he also wants to be recognized by others.
It is precisely because of the Ming monarch, especially the comparison between countries, which means that not only individuals, but the entire empire, will care more, so he will care so much about the words of a foreign traveler.
If even a foreigner could admit that the country in which he lived was inferior to Persia, he would be more glamorous and revered in front of his own people, and he would not feel ashamed of his former emperor, or at least he would be strong enough.
Sure enough, it's terrible to be obsessed with this thing.
What a boring emperor, Chi Tiancheng said to himself, he didn't care what kind of obsession the other party had, he only cared about his next things.
His Majesty was now in a good mood, and was recognized by the foreigners, and he had the feeling that he could even be blinded even by death, and then Dastan offered his robes, and the king gladly accepted them, and let his attendants drape them for him.
Then Dastan brought Princess Tamina up, and after some explanation, His Majesty wanted to be a matchmaker for Dastan, when the toxin on his robe flinched, and his whole body was immediately eroded and burned by the toxin, and within a few seconds he fell to the ground, turning into a dried corpse.
The whole scene is chaotic for a while, and Dastan is also considered the murderer, and then jumps from the balcony, and Tamina flees with him.
Nizam stayed in the palace to maintain order, and the second prince Gasif led the men and horses in pursuit, but what he cared about most was not Dastan's life or death, but his own car, a black horse.
When Dastan fled, he rode away from Gasif's black horse, and Gasif was furious when he saw it, and kept urging the soldiers to catch up quickly, and kept emphasizing that he loved the horse.
Nizam looked left and right, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and ordered the soldiers to tear off the king's robes, and then pretended to be distressed.
Chi Tiancheng, who knows the truth, is really disgusting to see his coy appearance.
