Chapter 141: Imperial Palace
The Giant Elephant's skin was the dark gray color of an ancient stone wall, and its large ears were stamped with golden lacquer marks unique to the Red Clay Empire.
The pillar-like giant feet can bring a hammer-hearted shock to the ground with every step.
There was a young and beautiful maid in the pavilion on the back of the elephant, who was making hot tea for the three Xiang Tian on the seat.
The fragrance of tea wafts through, and there is a sense of tranquility in the air.
Xiang Tian looked out of the small window, General Zhong was riding a war horse in front of him, and on the left and right were kilometers of armored soldiers.
They held silver shields and squeezed the crowd like black sesame seeds.
In addition to this, there are flying monster cavalry in light armor in the sky, vigilantly hovering and patrolling.
Inside the room, there is no strong jolting sensation, and the liquid in the teacup only shuddes slightly, thanks to its clever design.
"What kind of construction is this seat, it's so comfortable. Xiang Tian's eyes were slightly closed, and he leaned on the elastic leather back with a happy face, feeling like a freshly baked chicken cake.
Zhou Gong took a sip of tea, and his depressing eyes washed out a hint of brightness, "The taste is mellow, bitter and sweet, good tea!!"
Chen Lingyue took a bite of the snack, rarely revealing ecstasy, and couldn't help but put the whole piece in her mouth and chew it fully, "This food is also of first-class level." ”
"It's not a blessing to Xiang Tian, I have made a great friend. Zhou Gong smiled.
"Don't make a fuss, this time the princess brought us into the palace, probably just to repay my favor. Xiang Tian put Taigu on his lap and gave him some of the delicacies on the table.
"Tell me what happened between you and the princess. Zhou Gong rubbed his ass close to Xiang Tian, making him uncomfortable.
"Well, it's okay to say it. A cup of tea moistened his dry throat, and Xiang Tian told him that he had helped Xiaoying pay for Zhenweilou's meal.
"And then the princess has been following you?" asked Chen Lingyue.
"Keeping a person of unknown origin by my side, of course I refused at first, but who knew that she automatically and consciously hid in the tent to sleep, and she was obedient and out of the way, so I only agreed this morning, who knew that I had just arrived at the Bounty Hall, and I had just met you and General Zhong. ”
"Yo!It's not the point that she meets us, it's the point that she hides in the tent and sleeps. ”
Not only Chen Lingyue also looked at Xiang Tian, but also the maid.
To think of a princess and a commoner sleeping under a crude tent is simply indescribable. If the king knew about it, it would be a great crime to kill the head, because it would greatly violate the majesty of the Red Clay Empire.
"Hehe, I fed the mosquitoes outside all night. Xiang Tian pointed to the orange Taigu, "Her Royal Highness the princess slept with Taigu all night." In order to help Xiang Tian clear his suspicion, Taigu's mouth stained with food scraps meowed, and everyone nodded enviously.
Zhou Gong touched the orange fur on Taigu's back, causing him to have a spasm in the first battle, "Being able to spend the Spring Festival with the princess of the empire, little orange cat, you are really happy." ”
Taigu buried himself in the pile of food, as if nothing had happened, and the few people were already full just by looking at his appearance.
Over time, the silhouette of a palace with no edge in sight emerges into the trio's field of vision.
The glazed gold tiles shine dazzlingly in the sun, and the stone wall of the shield connects the vermilion city gate, which cannot close the vigorous vitality of the towering trees, and volatilizes the antique style heartily, and cannot help but give rise to a sense of solemnity and awe.
The gate of Dingguo in the center of the palace slowly opened, and the giant elephant beast let out a long roar, which lasted for a long time, and blew the horn of the princess returning home.
Entering the imperial palace of the empire, two luxurious golden sedan chairs have been placed on the tiled ground, the giant elephant beast was stopped by the beast tamer, and the three of them climbed to the ground with a rope ladder under the reminder of the maid, and Xiao Ying was already surrounded by heavy soldiers.
"What are the identities of the three of you, you actually asked Her Royal Highness the princess to wait for three minutes. General Zhong had a tense tone, and a faint earthy yellow fighting spirit leaked out, but at this time, Xiao Ying's words were resisted.
"Shut up, General Zhong. They are all friends of this princess, that is, the distinguished guests of the Red Clay Empire, if you dare to offend them again, it will damage the prestige of the country, and I will ask my father to punish you. Xiao Yingqian's hands were on her chest, and her cheeks bulged into a ball.
"Understood, Your Highness Princess. General Zhong was innocently attacked, lowered his head and glanced at the three of them with a slight resentment, "Your Royal Highness Princess, the monarch is very happy to hear the news of your homecoming, and has been waiting in Tianshu Pavilion for a long time. ”
"Father, wait a while, this princess hasn't taken a bath for a few days, and she must go to bathe and change her clothes first. ”
"Brother Xiang Tian, I will send someone to settle you down, and then take you to what is called magic. Dance.. Professional training. The place of the training center. ”
General Zhong's ears twitched, and he looked at the three of them again with disdain, as if he understood their intentions, whether they were participating in the last round of assessment of the Shenwu Academy.
"Hehe, take your time and don't rush. Xiang Tian's attitude changed to respect, and he felt that he could no longer speak to Xiao Ying in his previous tone.
"Yes, if you go back to Her Royal Highness the Princess, you are not in a hurry, but the most important thing is to be fast. Zhou Gong unceremoniously added.
"Okay!!Wrapped up in Xiao Ying, Brother Xiang Tian's business is my business, hehe. Xiao Ying sat in the golden sedan chair, and the gray hamster crawled out of the hat, looked at the orange cat Taigu, and left under the escort of General Zhong and the soldiers.
Then, the maid invited the three of them to sit in a golden sedan chair, which was carried by the strong soldiers of the eight gates.
"I've been on a boat, I've been on an airship, and it's the first time I've sat in a sedan chair powered by manpower. Xiang Tian looked curiously at the verdant landscape of the courtyard outside.
"Haha, this is not a blessing for your brother Xiang Tian, wait for my brother to help you beat your back, and comfort you. ”
"Don't be, I'm most afraid of your mechanical hands, hard and cold. ”
"Then you have to let me show it, or I won't be able to sleep at night. Zhou Gong said.
"Cold salad!!"
Chen Lingyue wrapped the white rabbit in the palm of his hand, and the white rabbit whispered: "It seems that this child named Xiang Tian is our lucky star." ”
"Maybe, at least he's a reliable teammate, and he's quite strong. ”
The Imperial Capital Palace is five steps to the first floor, and ten steps to a pavilion, and it took nearly an hour to reach the place where the three of them settled.
This is a chic small house, the decoration of the golden tile and red wall blends with the nearby buildings, and the yard is planted with a lot of green vegetation, if you wake up in the morning to see such a scene, you will feel refreshed and happy.
"Three distinguished guests, there are exactly three rooms here, you can choose by yourself, and if you need anything, you can tell the little girl. ”
"That's wonderful, it looks like I'll be able to face you every day for the next few days. Zhou Gong did not change his obscene nature, "By the way, what's your name." ”
"The little girl's name is Daisy. The maid replied shyly with a warm blush.
