Chapter 522: The Imperial Palace
The status of the envoy of Jagon was indeed useful, and at noon the day after the old man left, Ayla received news that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to meet a few people, and at the same time wanted to greet the Empress of Jagon......
The news came very quickly, and even Sean thought that it might take two or three days to receive the news, but he didn't expect it to be so early!
"Isn't Emperor Williams in the middle of a sad heart? Sean was also surprised to hear the news from Ayla.
"It's reasonable, after all, it's a visit between countries, and some etiquette needs to be done, and it won't take much time anyway. "Originally, the queen of a country, Ayla knew a lot about these things.
"Just a casual perfunctory?"
Sean recalled his days in the Jagon Palace, because he did not have direct access to the news from all over the world, so he was not very clear about the dialogue about the real operation of the whole country, and there were not many when he was a lord anyway.
There are very few people in Oro City who can write, and most of them are sent by several big families to ask for advice on this and that, and some urban planning and so on.
Because Sean didn't know much about the whole environment at that time, he mostly read local books and discussed with a few of his think-tank scholars before deciding that he could spend most of his time studying...... As for the state, it's even more troublesome, but fortunately, he's just a prince and doesn't need to be in charge of so many things.
"It can't be said to be perfunctory, many people just say hello. ”
Sean didn't quite understand the meaning of Aira's words, and looked at the other party curiously.
"You've seen that kind of ......" didn't know how to describe it for a while, and Ayla finally said a very vivid fact. "For example, the documents that were sent to the palace for the emperor to see actually did not have any major appearances, and they were written separately with Hello Your Majesty, or the physical condition of the members of the royal family, as well as the situation at home, and so on. ”
Sean listened suspiciously, feeling like a pen pal chatting!
No......
Just a few words feel more like 'netizen chat', and it's a very laborious one.
Life.
Confused!
"That's all?"
"Hmm. Ayla laughed, she was the real empress, and what she said should not be false, so many magistrates in Jagon presented such things!
It's boring.
"In fact, very few local officials are highly educated, and most of them are the guests and scholars who sit down to give advice, and they only enjoy the glory of the family, so fame is very important to the nobles...... Moreover, the larger the country, the local officials have hardly seen the royal family, and even if you reply that he knows, or hello, he will be very happy, so maybe it will be framed from generation to generation. ”
Although it is a bit exaggerated, Sean remembered that when he was in the town, his 'father' had never left the town in his life, and the Vigel family deliberately made some hobbies to show off their knowledge, and after having status, they also wanted to pursue fame, but it was a pity that they did not gain the appreciation of the Earl of Koga City in their lives.
Probably he didn't expect his son to be a prince!
"I see, it sounds very helpless. ”
"It's not called helplessness, in fact, it's okay for them to be like this, they don't know anything and yearn for the outside world to be full of hope, and they don't want us to ......" said this, Ayla smiled helplessly.
"Don't talk about this, get ready, you can enter the palace as my advisor, Lucille's words will be with Metsula for the time being, it seems that she doesn't like Mi'er very much. ”
The topic changed and ordered a few words to prepare.
But this surprised Sean......
It is no wonder that a person of such high rank would choose a country aristocrat like Baron Vigel, and from these few words, it can be heard that she still yearns for that kind of pastoral life.
........................
According to Aira's request, Sean prepared a set of clothes in the style of the Aidak region, which was quite in the style of the original high priest, and the golden cane with a gauze hat on his head was a symbol of status.
"Those officials' intelligence networks should know that I came with me from Lewis City, is it okay to dress like this now?" Sean said.
"It's better to let them know, otherwise you'll be a person with no identity...... Don't worry, there are many examples of wizards choosing strong vassals, and you have to behave more power in front of those in power before they think you are friendly, like people who don't have any weaknesses before you can be wary. Ayla said.
There is some truth to this.
Sean has always been on the task of finding the ancient gods, and rarely asks about the things in the past timeline except for Lucille, which is indeed a little unkind to outsiders.
"Let's go!"
Before leaving, he specially instructed Lucille to wait in the inn, and when she returned, she would be tested on her magic.
And the little girl is still at the age of learning, in fact, I don't understand a lot of things, most of them are just written down and practiced slowly, under the guidance of Sean, I just insist on practicing diligently every day, as for the story of the sudden surge, don't think too much, and practicing honestly every day is the right way.
"Well, then I'll wait here for the mentor to come back. Lucille said obediently.
After all, this is someone else's national palace, and some rules are needed, and it is inconvenient and noisy to bring a little girl like Lucille to the past, so it is best to let her stay in the hotel......
Follow Ayla into the palace as an advisor to the other party.
It was afternoon, and it is said that Emperor Williams wanted to invite Ayla and his family to dinner together, and he specially wanted to hold a banquet in the palace for the first time in a long time.
It is estimated that the palace has not been so lively for a long time, and since Sean entered the imperial city, he has always seen a welcoming honor guard on both sides of the carriage......
The royal palace of Keselke was built on the edge of a large lake square, because he had not seen the map of this area, Sean did not know the specific location, anyway, there was a large lake next to it, which should pass through the entire royal garden, and it looked like a large garden built on the water, which was not inferior to the royal city of the Basalan Empire in style.
Sean and the two rode in an open-top carriage, and a road several kilometers long around the lake stretched all the way to the interior of the palace, which was very chic.
Before the two officially entered the palace, Ayla also made a special point of explaining what Sean should pay attention to, especially the etiquette of some nobles......
"I see you don't seem nervous at all?"
Sean looked up at the other man.
"Why be nervous. "It's not that I haven't seen the emperor before, and I'm even a prince who is nervous.
"It's not usually the first time you go into a formal setting, but you look calm...... You're not really a nobleman, are you?" asked Ayla curiously.
