Xiao Xun returned to his small courtyard, and began to tidy up his outfits, he promised Mi Lao a few days ago to go to the palace to celebrate the emperor's birthday, and he definitely couldn't shirk it. If you say yes, you will do what you say.

took a cold shower at random, Xiao Xun put on his clothes and went out.

As soon as he went out, Xiao Xun ran into Xiao Rulong.

What's the matter, big cousin, you still look for me so late. Xiao Xun said with a smile.

What's the matter, the family descendants are going to celebrate the emperor's birthday tonight, didn't I specially invite you to come and accompany me?" Xiao Rulong also laughed. However, he squinted and stared at Xiao Xun as he spoke.

Xiao Xundao, who was looked at Mao: Get out of your old glass, your orientation won't be abnormal, right? Go to Manhualou to have a fun if it's not normal, don't stare at me, look at Mao, I don't care if you are my brother or not.

Look at what you said, am I Xiao Rulong that kind of person? Xiao Rulong suddenly said seriously, if I had done it a long time ago, look at your fine skin and tender meat, and still keep you until now? I just want to see what treasure you get today.

You said the Treasure Pavilion?

But no, you know, Xiao has spread the news about you all his life, do you feel about the first junior who is on the top ten floors?

Oh, this, Xiao Xun said and pulled out the sword from his waist to show Xiao Rulong.

Xiao Xun naturally couldn't say what he took, not to mention that he took so many things, even if the Qianyuan Ring could be used in the Treasure Pavilion, this point could not be revealed.

This has an aura level, right? Xiao Rulong caressed Jian Feng and said.

Ang, not much taller, two-star spiritual weapon. Xiao Xun said casually.

It's not high! Xiao Rulong's resentful eyes looked at Xiao Xun.

And said that you are not glass! Xiao Xun almost burst into foul language.

As far as the two-star spirit weapon is concerned, which sword of mine is still a one-star sharp weapon! This was all achieved with a long period of effort.

Xiao Xun knew that there were few high-level weapons, so he was no longer angry with Xiao Rulong and withdrew to the matter of the emperor's birthday.

The two of them talked and laughed and laughed at the gate of the Xiao Mansion, at this moment there were a lot of gorgeous carriages at the gate of the Xiao Mansion, and by chatting with Xiao Rulong, Xiao Xun also knew the approximate reason, the emperor of the Changwen Empire was sixty years old, and it was a big birthday for the previous life and the present, the royal family attached great importance to it, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were also invited to participate in the banquet. Among them, the Xiao family, the first military family, is naturally also on the list. Xiao Zhantian, the head of the Xiao family, announced that all the descendants would follow the family to attend the banquet. (Xiao Xun may be the only one who doesn't know)

Xiao Xun was just worried about how to go to the palace, and now he and Xiao Rulong also solved this problem. As the carriage of the Xiao family took the initiative to give way wherever it passed along the way, Xiao Xun soon came to the bottom of the palace.

If Xiao Xun's feeling when he saw Xiao Mansion was a lake, which palace was undoubtedly an ocean in Xiao Xun's eyes. The Imperial Palace, which occupies the center of the entire imperial capital, can no longer be said to be a building, it can be said that it is a city in itself.

With the majesty of the Forbidden City in the previous life, the combination of Chinese and Western construction methods and dense lights make the palace at night a golden splendor, of course, this is only seen through the city wall, the 20-meter-high city front is all a cubic meter of stone bricks, and the metal poured into the gap in the middle makes the wall extremely hard.

Xiao Xun sighed, in his previous life, there was no such thing as an imperial royal in the secular world, and in the hundreds of years of cultivation, countless royal families had fallen and become puppets in name only, and the appearance of the emperor's house was long gone, and the building of the emperor's house was not supplied with the emperor's qi, and it was difficult for Xiao Xun to feel the momentum now.

Xiao Xun and his entourage came to the main gate of the palace, the left and right side doors of the main gate opened, and the two gold-inlaid gates with a height of more than ten meters and a width of ten meters stood on the left and right. The main entrance is built of pure bluestone bricks, which is higher than the wall.

Cousin get out of the car!" Xiao Rulong said at this time.

What's the matter? Give the emperor a birthday in the back garden. Xiao Xundao, the back garden is far from the front. Are you going to walk over?

We can't do anything about the emperor's regulations, Xiao Rulong said.

It turns out that this palace also has rules, no matter how big the official is after entering the door, he is not allowed to ride with him, and he is not allowed to wear weapons when entering the palace.

The emperor still has a lot of things to do, Xiao Xun listened to Xiao Rulong like an idiot and said secretly in his heart.

As Xiao Rulong got out of the car, he saw a large number of Xiao family members surrounding Xiao Zhantian discussing birthday celebrations, and other families came over to chat and greet, for what happened to the Xiao family, to be honest, Xiao Xun didn't care very much, the relationship between himself and Xiao Zhantian eased, he knew that it was just Xiao Zhantian who was just looking at his talent, as for other Xiao Xun, he didn't feel it. Not to mention the whole group of descendants who are a little hostile to him?

Let's go and find my brother. Xiao Rulong watched a member of the family walk towards the palace.

Enxiao Xun nodded and agreed, although he was unwilling to go with the Xiao family, he must have come together, and he was also a family, and the most important thing was that Xiao Xun didn't know where the back garden was, he only knew that it was not close, but it was unlikely that he, a guy who had never been to the palace, would go by himself, and it was very likely that the guards would be arrested as assassins.

Looking at the royal palace up close, Xiao Xun knew that he was short-sighted, the buildings of more than ten floors were extremely dense, various bridges were interspersed in the palace, and several artificially dug small rivers passed through the palace regularly, but they didn't know where to go.

, it's extravagant. Xiao Xun glanced at the handrail on the side of the road and scolded.

This simple handrail is all carved from pure jade, this handrail is one meter high, and it is distributed on both sides of the three roads of the main palace, which is so far away that you can't see the head, how much jade does it cost.

As the saying goes, the most pinnacle craftsmanship of an era depends on the royal use, which is also suitable for architecture, Xiao Xun occasionally scolds luxury in his heart, and slowly experiences the unique exotic customs of this country. At this moment, I, a foreigner, have a lot of emotion.

Looking for brother, don't look at Ang indiscriminately. Xiao Rulong said.

What's the matter, it's a violation of the rules here? Xiao Xun disagreed.

That's not true, nothing is stipulated, but if you look at it too much, you may be arrested for the crime of intentionally assassinating and surveying the terrain, and you will be so unjustly panicked. Xiao Rulong joked.

The water in this palace is so deep? Xiao Xundao stopped looking at it, of course, he was not frightened by Xiao Rulong. With the status of the Xiao family, if you take a few casual glances in the palace, you will be convicted, and you will be repaid?

Xiao Xun has not lived in vain for hundreds of years, the buildings here are far from the high-rise buildings and supercities in the previous world, but the style gives him a sense of freshness, and now he has seen almost it, and naturally he is not interested.

Ignoring the rest of the Xiao family's descendants, they despised Xiao Xun, and then followed Xiao Rulong.

After walking for about two hours, Xiao Xun saw a gate plaque not far away: the first garden in the world.

The first garden in the world? Xiao Xun smiled, this name is domineering, dare to use the first in the world, Xiao Xun became interested in the imperial garden.

General Xiao, please show your invitation, a few eunuchs at the gate of the first garden in the world said respectfully to Xiao Zhantian, this is a procedure that must be followed, even if a few people know that the Xiao family is invited to celebrate their birthday.

The Xiao family soon entered the garden.

The first garden in the world naturally did not disappoint Xiao Xun, a garden like a small forest, Xiao Xun was really afraid that the emperor would get lost in it one day. What about this winding and dark road to assassination?

Cousin, do you know how big this garden is? Xiao Xun asked boredly.

I don't know, I came here with my father two years ago, and I visited the first garden in the world with a few royal families, but I didn't go far at that time, I remember that there was a small palace for royal gatherings not far in front, where should we go. Xiao Rulong replied.

This time, it didn't take long for the Xiao family to go to a palace.

Everyone, please. The eunuch who led the team stretched out his hand to the palace gate.

When I came here, it was a lot more lively, people in aristocratic costumes chatted outside the palace, and the noble ladies were amused by the eunuchs around them.

General Qinglong of the Empire, Marshal of the Southern Army, and General Xiao Zhantian, a first-class marquis, arrived. Xiao Xun and a group of people entered the palace gate, and the eunuch hurriedly said loudly.

General Fuhu of the Empire, Governor of the Northwest Army, Second Marquis General Xiao Zhanting has arrived!

A governor of the south, a governor of the northwest, half of the forces of the entire empire are in the hands of these two brothers. Xiao Xun thought in his heart.

Emperor Changwen's ** team is divided into several large military camps, including the Northwest Army, the Northeast Army, the Southern Army, and the Imperial Forest Army, which correspond to the Northwest Orcs, the Northeast Dongsheng Empire and the Southern Shengwei Empire, and the Warcraft Forest Warcraft Riot and the maintenance of imperial power in the imperial capital. Although the other small principalities also had military bases, they were all small, so they were managed by several military districts for ease of management. Now that two of the four major military regions are in the hands of the Xiao family, the power of the Xiao family can be imagined, which is not comparable to a political family such as the prime minister.

Two lovers, have you worked the road? Entering the door, a man with gray temples and a golden dress greeted him. Emperor? Xiao Xun's first reaction was the emperor. This middle-aged man's face has more vicissitudes than Xiao Zhantian and others, vicissitudes of life, but he does not accept the erosion of the years, and he walks with a faint imperial style.

Everyone who passed by the man saluted, and Xiao Zhantian and Xiao Zhanting were naturally no exception.

Why did you come to greet the ministers in person, it really tormented my two brothers. Xiao Zhantian bowed down and said respectfully, Xiao Zhanting didn't speak, just saluted with Xiao Zhantian.

Haha, look at it, today is the day of my birthday, how stiff you two are to salute like this. Get up. Which man is none other than Emperor Changwen as Xiao Xun guessed: Woodseywell.

Back then, you two ran behind me, why are you so different now? Wood smiled and helped the two men up.

Marshal Xiao has been in good health lately?

Thanks to my lord's relationship, the head of the family is in retreat and practice, and he is about to get out of the customs. Xiao Zhan Tiandao.

Okay, good, good! Wood said three good in a row, recently the Northwest Orcs, and the Northeast Dongsheng have made some moves, if Marshal Xiao advances again, it will not be a good thing.
