Chapter 131: Superficial Harmony
Turning and walking outside, the old shopkeeper stopped him, and asked him:
"Do you need me to do anything if you don't come back?"
The implication was already to let him explain the future, the monk groaned slightly, smiled and turned back and said:
"Would definitely come back don't worry. ”
The smile contained incomparable confidence the old store manager was stunned for a moment, but there was no interface, and Shang Hui just walked out of the room, stood on it, and was stunned for a while, as if he was thinking about something, and then went to his storage room. Took out the black wooden stick that I had carved some time ago.
The clerks outside were all beaming, they didn't know the news that the doctors who entered the palace had died, and those families naturally didn't have the courage to spread these things, seeing that the emperor's envoys came to greet them quite ceremoniously, and unlike the last time they were arrogant, this time their attitude was obviously polite to the extreme.
The pharmacy is located in a place where the powerful live, and some passers-by sighed secretly in their hearts when they saw the emperor's envoy here, thinking that another innocent doctor was going to die in vain.
The monk didn't have anything else on him, just took the black wooden stick carved with the eight-part pattern, pulled it in his hand, and slowly walked out. Seeing Hui just come out, the envoy last time immediately had a smile on his face, and said flatteringly:
"Dear Mr. Fleet, are you ready, are you ready to go on your way?"
This attendant didn't expect that the doctor who was invited to see a doctor last time was actually a servant of the second prince, not only did he not blackmail, but he lost a sum of money to go in. I thought that this doctor would not come out alive after entering, or that he would not live long after coming out, but he never thought that he would not only come out the next day, but also need to be greeted by himself.
Although I don't know what happened, but the joyful atmosphere of the whole palace is real, although he, the attendant, although he is scolding in his heart, he knows that he can't be sluggish, and hurried over. At this time, he kept cursing in his heart, and the young man in front of him was killed after entering the palace.
He saw that Hui Gang was holding a black wooden stick, and he didn't dare to ask more, nodded his head, and invited Hui Gang into the carriage, this time the honor guard was much more luxurious than the last time, and the envoy sat in the carriage according to the rules, according to Hui Gang's own quiet character. As soon as I entered the carriage, I closed my eyes slightly.
The attendant envoy originally wanted to say a few words, and when he saw this, he would not take the initiative to provoke a few words in his heart, but the carriage was halfway through this quiet walk, and the attendant who was almost asleep suddenly felt a sinking in his hand, and looked down. It was the money bag that he gave out yesterday, and in his experience of the bribes he often received, he knew what the weight was when he weighed it with his own hands, and the gold coins he gave yesterday were not less at all.
The envoy of this emperor has been in this position since then. Accepting bribes from others or bribing others. But I've never seen the money I gave away being handed back again, so I can't help but be stunned there.
The monk said lightly on the side:
"I never accept money from others for no reason. ”
Yesterday's situation, if the monk talked about his extortion and bribery in the pharmacy, even if this kind of thing is not new, it is commonplace. I'm afraid that the second prince will not care about his identity as a royal envoy at all, and he will directly kill himself, but he never expected that the other party would return the money to him.
The money bag had already been rubbed into his hands, but both sides were speechless, and the atmosphere inside the carriage was still silent. When the tall palace building was already in sight, the attendant opened his mouth with a winch:
"Mr. Fleet's visit to the palace this time is a reward from His Majesty the Emperor, but the palace is not very safe, do you understand?"
The words were vague, but Hui Gang understood what he meant, nodded and smiled at him. Then the carriage continued to fall silent.
As soon as I entered the gate of the palace, I saw the second prince Fanst waiting there, with an excited expression on his face, and the appearance of those majestic and brave superiors was quite unloaded.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, there was already a waiting attendant coming over, opening the car door, and after getting out of the car, Prince Fanst came over excitedly, and as soon as they met, he was about to give Huigang a warm hug, and shouted:
"Dear Mr. Fleet, I am glad to see you. ”
Those people on the side all looked at each other, maybe they had never seen their prince like this, Hui Gang felt good in his heart, maybe this is the embodiment of the other party's true temperament, but this is not the place for people to reveal their true temperament, the monk bowed slightly, and said respectfully:
"Hello, Your Royal Highness, I am also very happy. ”
When he came in yesterday, not many people paid attention, and the monk quietly entered the palace, but now this momentum is not small, and there are a lot of people to greet him. Seeing that Prince Fanst, who has always been serious, actually behaved like this today, everyone was stunned at first, and then pretended to be calm, and in their hearts they were thinking about who this young man Jin who made the prince treat him intimately.
I don't know what the reason is, today's palace is much more lively than yesterday's time, walking on the road, in addition to those soldiers I saw yesterday, more beautiful and gorgeous palace maids, female officials and attendants, maybe see the monk's doubts, the Prince Fanst on the side enthusiastically explained:
"Because of my sister"
Hearing this, Hui just understood that this palace was originally a place specially prepared for Caroline, and this was a magic array set up by the Magicians Association to imprison the demonized princess.
As for the Empress, now the mother of the eldest prince and the maids of the court, most of the attendants lived in the new palace, and Emperor Lindley V personally guarded here. After all, Princess Caroline is his first child, and the emperor is ruthless, after all, he still feels guilty in his heart.
The excited second prince said all the way to the end before mentioning today's topic. In order to thank the monk for his outstanding medical skills, Emperor Drew prepared a private banquet to entertain Hui Gang and thank him in person.
Speaking of this, the second prince Fanst seemed very excited, and said loudly to the monk:
"Father, the Emperor will bestow you a knighthood, and when the time comes, I will invite you to my legion as a medic, Mr. Fleett, you are much better than those priests, priests, and so on. ”
After speaking, he laughed, and the monk saw that the prince on the other side was so indulgent and expressed his excitement and sincere invitation, and couldn't help but have some doubts about what the old store manager told him, and thought in his heart, Could it be that the old store manager was a little worried.
Under the guidance of the costumed palace attendants, the two people were guided into an extremely empty hall, although the palace building is in charge of the outside, it seems to be practical, more like a military fortress, but the interior decoration is also very luxurious, there is no interval in the space of several floors, just a tall dome, on the dome depicting a gorgeous top painting.
With Hui Gang's eyesight, you can see that the painting above is the heroic posture of the Drew emperors who opened up their territory and fought on the battlefield. Surrounding the hall are tall stone pillars carved with a variety of elaborate patterns, but nothing else.
There was a huge curtain hanging down between the pillars, and in addition to this, there was only a long table in the middle of this huge space, and in the monk's impression, the hall that served as a dance hall when he attended the ball in the governor's palace of the union of the city-states of Maidan, could be regarded as huge, but it was only a fraction of the space in front of him.
The long dining table is too small compared to this space, and it looks very incongruous.
Drew's Emperor Lindley V sat at one end of the table, beside him sat a veiled white-robed lady on the left, and on the right was a young man dressed in civil official clothes, and there was a lot of similarity between his eyebrows and eyes, this is the eldest prince, Prince Kesen, sat under these two people, and there were three Thorne ** divisions at that time, and the other two were wearing military attache dresses, and they couldn't see the rank of the official.
Sure enough, it was a family banquet, there were indeed no outsiders to attend, and those who were in charge of serving were standing quietly behind, and the second prince brought Huigang here, and immediately someone whispered a few words in the ear of Lindley V, and Emperor Drew looked over and nodded.
Fanst took a step forward, first saluted respectfully to the Emperor, then straightened up and said aloud:
"Father, this is Mr. Fleet, the doctor who healed my own sister, Princess Caroline. ”
Follow the instructions outside. The monk stepped forward first and made a saluting gesture, this posture was too far for the common people, and the eyes of the emperor and the eldest prince flashed with anger, but soon they all returned to normal, and then the eldest prince, Prince Kesen.
Seeing Hui Gang nodding and bowing slightly, there was a look of resentment on Prince Rickson's face, but he immediately stood up with a smile and said gently:
"My father has always been worried about this sister of mine, Mr. Fleet, you have healed him, and I really want to thank you. ”
The eldest prince looked gentle and elegant, and naturally looked much more pleasing to the eye than Fanst's martial dress, and his manners and words were more comfortable, but the trace of resentment that was not concealed did not escape Huigang's eyes, and the monk felt slightly surprised in his heart, but he did not show it on the surface, and replied with a smile:
"That's what doctors should do. ”
