Chapter 381: Someone from the Moon Country
As the figure approached, the crowd erupted in cheers. "Co*Fun*Words*Love*First*Fa ()』
As the hundred-odd people drew nearer, the cheers grew louder and louder, until they reached their highest level when they came to the King of Qiansong, who was at the front of the city gate.
Bai Jinghuan and the others expected that they would be warmly welcomed when they returned, but the magnitude of this battle was really beyond their expectations.
Even His Majesty, the Prime Minister, the General, the Lord and others all came out of the city gate, and the specifications of this greeting were too high.
In the two hundred years since the founding of the Thousand Song Dynasty, it is not that there has been no return of triumphant divisions, but the number of times the monarchs and ministers have gone out of the city gate is only afraid that it is not more than three times.
Countless people shouted their names, whether it was Xie Shaoying, Bai Jinghuan or Zhao Xing, Gu Ying, Xi Feiyuan and others, their names kept appearing in the mouths of the onlookers.
Such a scene reminded Lin Si of a scene he had heard in Tianhe.
It was an interesting story that Xie Shaoying told them after sneaking into Linjia City to inquire about the news and coming back. It is said that the people of Tianhe had made this more fanatical move at that time, but they were only for one person, Yin Li.
This reminded him of the girl in purple who made him feel complicated again.
The girl who caught him, seemed to have deliberately let him go, injured him but in order to heal his wounds, and was hostile to him but maintained a certain tacit understanding.
Lin Si still didn't understand why she was so conflicted when she treated herself.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Yin Li did leave a deep mark on his heart
In his spare time over the years, he often thought of her inadvertently. She should go back to the heart palace, see you later, I don't know how long she will have to wait
Whenever these thoughts arose, he would stupidly feel that this was disloyalty to Tang Xiaozhi. He would instinctively think of Tang Xiaozhi, and only in this way could he temporarily forget the girl in purple.
He followed the crowd and saluted the king of Qiansong, and then naturally entered the city.
Hardly anyone noticed that the King of Qiansong, who had a friendly smile on his face, would always focus on him, intentionally or unintentionally.
On both sides of the roads in the city, there are people along the way to welcome them, and the momentum is not small at all outside the city.
They followed the King of the Thousand Song Dynasty into the palace, where it is said that a sumptuous feast had been prepared for them.
This was the first time Lin Si had participated in such a high-level banquet, and the only banquet he had attended before was in the Falling Star Tower in Moon Country Rong City.
At that time, he was still unrestrained in the face of those young masters and young ladies in Rongcheng, and he was uncomfortable.
And now he has appeared in the palace of the Thousand Song Dynasty. The people who attended the banquet, in addition to the king and queen of the Thousand Song Dynasty, also included a hundred ministers and hundreds of officials, as well as more than a hundred rescued hostages.
In addition, among the people who accompanied the attendees, there was no shortage of Yuan Realm and Extreme Realm masters. And not far from King Qiansong, there were even two realm-breaking masters.
I don't know how many times the specifications of this banquet were higher than that time in the Falling Star Tower, but Lin Si no longer felt the slightest discomfort.
He, Mu Zheping, and Nie He were arranged in the first three seats on the left, and the three seats tied with them on the opposite side were the general Xie Chi, Ji Jing and Bai Taiwu, the green prince.
This is enough to show that the king of the Thousand Song Dynasty valued them.
Lin Munie and the three of them understood what King Qiansong meant, which was a secret expression of gratitude to them. Not only them, but also the more than 100 people who participated in the trip to the grassland also understood this.
In their opinion, Lin Munie and the three of them should have enjoyed this honor many times higher.
Although Lin Si didn't want to be too public, so as not to be targeted by Shifang Lou. But after the trip to the grassland, the names of the three of them could not be concealed no matter what, and it was already the limit to be able to eliminate their influence as much as possible.
Therefore, in the face of the hospitality of the King of Qiansong, they did not push back, but sat down peacefully.
However, when the ministers and officials first saw such a table arrangement, they were all surprised. Because of the duke they got about the great victory, the names of these three people did not even appear.
However, they were quickly relieved, because neither the king nor the general nor the prime minister had the slightest objection to such a distribution of seats.
Maybe it's to show the hospitality of the Qiansong people, after all, the three of them are foreigners, and they also contributed to this operation, many people thought so.
At the beginning of the banquet, the king of Qiansong first raised a glass with everyone, praised and encouraged everyone who participated in this trip to the grassland.
Then the atmosphere of the banquet became warm.
King Qiansong soon made another move that surprised the ministers and officials even more, and he left the throne and came to Lin Si.
He raised the wine glass in his hand to Lin Munie and the three people opposite, and said sincerely, "This grassland victory, the three young heroes have made great contributions, I thank you on behalf of Qiansong, and please drink this cup."
Looking at the three people who were drinking with His Majesty the King, the Qiansong Qunchen was quite unimpressed. In their opinion, even if His Majesty is hospitable, it is a bit too much.
It's just that immediately afterward, the scenes that surprise them even more continue to play out.
Prime Minister Ji Jing, Zhenguo General Xie Chi, Qingwang Bai Taiwu, Bai Jinghuan, Zhao Xing, Gu Ying, Xi Feiyuan, Lu Ran and others, as if they had made an appointment, continued to toast the three of them in turn.
For Ji Jing, the salvation of his children is almost entirely due to the credit of these three people.
For Xie Chi and Bai Taiwu, these three not only rescued the hostages, but also helped Qian Song destroy the close enemy Nalongalo and 18,000 steppe cavalry, such an immortal feat is completely worthy of their initiative to toast
For Bai Jinghuan, building a good relationship with these three people, whether they are used in the future or not, is a good and harmless thing. With their current strength, maybe in ten years, I am afraid that I will not be qualified to sit with them again.
As for those hostages, they naturally understood who was the one who rescued them, led them to a great achievement, and completed a redemption.
Gradually, the officials also found out that something was wrong, but they didn't understand why this was the case.
For rounds of toasts, Lin Si did not refuse. These Qiansong people generally have a crisp and refreshing temperament of a soldier. Here he did not feel the slightest discomfort.
He drank wine and ate meat in large chunks, without the slightest trace of the noble demeanor that most cultivators and children of the family possessed. However, this time, no one showed a look of disgust at him. The more casual he was, the more cordial the smile on the faces of the Triumvirate opposite and the Thousand Song Kings on the throne became.
If it weren't for the crisis of Shifanglou, if it weren't for the fact that Nanqi, Tianhe, and Qingchuan all hated themselves to the core, they would have sent someone to deal with them sooner or later, if it weren't for Tang Xiaozhi still in the city of the school garden, Lin Si would have even wanted to settle in Qiansong.
He is still a cultivator in his bones, he has no national concept, he is not from the Moon Country, and he can be his home anywhere. And Qiansong is the motherland of his fifth brother Xie Shaoying, which is not far from the northwest of the Moon Kingdom, and he can often see his second brother Ye Hong. And then work with them against the common enemy, the steppe nations.
The people here made him feel very comfortable, whether it was a monarch or a soldier and a common man. If he could, he was willing to fight for the Thousand Songs, and was willing to help them protect the kingdom.
It's just a pity that he can't stay here.
If the King of Qiansong knew what Lin Si was thinking at this time, he would definitely send someone to the city of the school garden and take Tang Xiaozhi's family to Qiansong Haosheng to take care of. He would make a formal statement to the surrounding countries, claiming that Lin Simu Zheping was a member of the Thousand Song Dynasty and that he would be the enemy of the Thousand Song Dynasty against them
In that case, he would most likely keep Lin Si and Mu Zheping.
However, he didn't know.
As much as he wanted to keep these three, it seemed to him that it was impossible. The continent is so vast, with their talent and strength, the stage that belongs to them must be a place like Shenyan and the Bilan Empire.
Qiansong, it's too small
So, he didn't even try to keep them, he just had the idea of befriending them.
"His Majesty's envoy asks to see you"
The noisy banquet was suddenly interrupted by a voice, and a palace man broke in.
Originally, when the envoy asked to see this kind of thing, he would not report it directly to the court like this, and he would also hand over the letter of state in advance.
It's just that the relationship between the Moon Kingdom and the Thousand Song Dynasty is extraordinary, and when the envoys of the Moon Kingdom arrive, the Thousand Song Dynasty will take it seriously.
What are the people of the Moon Kingdom doing here now, could it be that they got the news of Qian Song's victory in Fulunpo, and the news had not even had time to spread out of Dingchuan City.
King Qiansong frowned, it was during the banquet at this time, and he didn't want to snub Lin Munie and the others because of state affairs.
"Let them wait in the Hall of Welcome," he waved his hand, intending to continue the feast.
Lin Si and Mu Zheping glanced at each other, and the two of them had a hunch in their hearts that the arrival of the envoys of the Moon Kingdom this time should have something to do with them.
"Your Majesty, let them in, so as not to delay any important matters" The two of them got up together and said to King Qiansong with a smile.
Seeing the two of them say this, King Qiansong no longer insisted.
"Tell them to come in," he waved his long sleeve downward.
In a few moments, a group of five people entered the banquet hall under the leadership of the ceremonial officials and palace people.
"I've seen His Majesty the King," the five of them saluted in unison.
It's just that there is still a look of surprise on their faces. What are the thousands of Song people doing to put on a big feast, is there something big going on?
Among the five people in the Moon Kingdom, the leader was a ceremonial official named Huaiguang.
It has been more than ten days since he set out from Xiancheng. The road was calm, and it wasn't until the moment he entered Dingchuan City that he felt that something was wrong.
It's not that he hasn't been to Qiansong before, and he knows exactly what this place is like. It is no exaggeration to say that the capital city of the Thousand Song Dynasty on weekdays seems to be very deserted, and there are not many pedestrians, and it is not even as lively as the remote city of Yueguo Rong City.
But today, there is a noticeably more festive atmosphere on the streets, with people coming and going, and everyone has a smile on their faces, even the soldiers defending the city.
Could it be that today is a holiday
This doubt finally reached the extreme after he entered the banquet hall.
"I don't know why the envoy is here"
King Qiansong did not shy away from the presence of Lin Munie, the three outsiders, but asked directly to the point.
Huaiguang came back to his senses, took out a roll of bright yellow silk cloth from his sleeve, and said loudly, "Your Majesty, forgive me, I am not here because of Qiansong, but because of two people."
