Chapter 47: Artillery Appears! Boom!
"Your Majesty arrives at ——!"
With the shrill singing of the eunuchs, all the noise in the Tai'an Hall came to an abrupt end.
A majestic figure appeared at the door of the Tai'an Palace.
The crimson dragon robe, the face is calm, and the majesty is self-generated when walking, which makes people feel awe when they look at it.
"This is Emperor Yan? He looks so young. ”
Su Mu looked at it secretly, feeling quite surprised.
He knew that Emperor Yan was over sixty years old, but he still looked energetic, and his beard was not a little white, and he believed it when he said that he was forty years old.
Emperor Yan strode into the Tai'an Palace, the queen walked side by side with him, and the prince was one position behind.
Behind them are a group of concubines and princesses, all dressed up to attend, graceful and luxurious.
Princess Yong'an was in the team.
Today, she is not dressed like the men's clothes that Su Mu saw in the Qinglou that day, but a gorgeous red palace skirt, which outlines the perfect waist and body curves to the fullest.
Such a gorgeous and swaggering outfit does not look vulgar and enchanting on her, but looks extraordinarily gorgeous and atmospheric, and the beauty is moving.
Such a beautiful woman is enough to make any man's heart flutter.
It's a pity that no one dares to look up now.
Because after Emperor Yan walked into the Tai'an Palace, everyone in the seat got up and bowed their heads.
Under the bowing of everyone, Emperor Yan walked to the high position at the end of the main hall with the queen and all the relatives of the harem.
All the relatives of the harem have entered the table one after another, and coincidentally, the position of Princess Yong'an is next to Su Mu.
However, to Su Mu's surprise, Princess Yong'an did not show hostility towards him, and her expression did not even change, as if she didn't know him at all.
It's pretty good to fit...... Su Mu smiled in his heart, but he also pretended not to know and did not squint.
"Let's get even."
After everyone was seated, Emperor Yan looked around the hall and said with a light smile, "Today's National Day Ceremony is a great day for my Great Yan to celebrate with the whole country. ”
"I ruled the country peacefully, and now my Great Yan country is rich and strong, and the four seas are peaceful, all thanks to the blessing of the previous emperors of the past dynasties, as well as the assistance of countless loyal ministers and good generals."
"On the occasion of the 297th National Day, I and all my ministers gather here to celebrate the festival.
After Emperor Yan finished speaking, he directly drank the wine in the cup, and his posture was quite arrogant.
The guests in the hall applauded.
After such an opening remark, the warm atmosphere was brought out, and the banquet officially began.
A mermaid dressed in palace costume entered the main hall and brought in all kinds of delicious food and wine.
At the same time, beautiful music sounded, and several groups of dancers came and danced in the center of the main hall.
Emperor Yan sat back in his place, and before he could put down the wine glass, the queen tugged at his sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, is the young man sitting next to Yu'er a child of the Confucian family?" ”
When Emperor Yan heard this, he followed the queen's words and saw Su Mu, who was drinking slowly and calmly.
Although it was the first time he had seen Su Mu, he would not admit that he had a face that was four or five points similar to that of Confucian Sage when he was young, and he recognized it at a glance.
Emperor Yan glanced at Su Mu deeply, and said with some emotion: "That's right, it's really similar to Su Aiqing." ”
Today, Su Mu was wearing a Confucian robe, which made him almost mistakenly think that he had just seen a Confucian saint, because Confucian saints also have the habit of wearing Confucian robes, all year round.
When the queen heard this, she looked at Su Mu again, only to feel that the more she looked at it, the more pleasing it became, and said: "This Su family's appearance is really outstanding, and it is very pleasing to look at." ”
"Your Majesty, don't you think he and Yu'er are a good match to sit together? There are many husband and wife. ”
When Emperor Yan heard this, he just drank silently and didn't speak.
Xindao You want to marry your daughter and want to go crazy, the son of the Zhongyong Marquis family said the same last time.
At this time, it was not only Emperor Yan and Empress who were paying attention to Su Mu, but there were many pairs of eyes in the hall looking at him.
Today, almost all the people in Shengjing who have a good status have come to participate in the National Day banquet, and it is impossible for them not to be curious when the son of the Confucian saint who appeared after sixteen years of hiding appeared.
"This is the son of the Confucian saint, he doesn't look special, and he is dressed so shabby."
"You know the, it's called informality! Scholars care about dressing up to be inferior, don't you see that all the Confucian scholars in the academy are all the same simple Confucian robes? ”
"Why did Princess Yongan sit at the same table with him, could it be that His Majesty deliberately wanted to match?"
"Unlikely...... Although Princess Yongan is extremely beautiful and has a good identity, she is really not a good match. ”
"In the past, the Confucian saint made a poem of Qinyuan Spring at the National Day banquet and presented it to His Majesty, only to be shocked, I wonder if he will also compose poems as the son of the Confucian saint?"
"Don't think about it, people don't bother to study the way of poetry at all, and they scolded it at the Yashan Poetry Meeting last time."
"So what realm is he now?"
"It seems that you have reached the realm of Confucianism."
"Confucian? It's impossible, I've heard that it's all up to the third grade. ”
"You guys are all fake news, a distant cousin of my wife works as a servant in the Demon King's Mansion, it is said that Su Mu is more talented than the Confucian Sage, and he is only one step away from the Sage!"
"Really? He is worthy of being the son of a Confucian saint. ”
……
Many guests whispered discussions.
After Su Mu's body was tempered and all the tricks were cleared, his five senses became extremely sensitive, and he heard these words word for word.
And as an immortal cultivator of the twelfth layer of Qi refining, Su Mu calmly took a sip of wine, and his heart was not shocked.
If you guess, I will lose.
The process of the banquet is actually a bit boring, and you are not allowed to move around at will, so you can only stay in your own place.
Xu had a lively chat with a harem concubine next to him, and Su Mu witnessed how his mother went from not knowing each other to getting along.
He really admires this social.
At this time, he noticed that there was a gaze above him who was always looking at him, so he looked up and found that it was the prince.
After the other party saw him looking over, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he raised his glass to him with a smile.
This was originally a gesture of goodwill, but in Su Mu's eyes, it made him extremely puzzled.
"What do you mean by this guy, are you familiar with it? It's okay to smile at me for anything, and you smile so basic...... Wait a minute! He shouldn't really have Longyang, right? ”
Su Mu reacted suddenly, and the chrysanthemum suddenly tightened.
Thinking of Princess Yong'an's abnormal orientation, it seems possible that the prince's abnormal orientation is also possible.
After all, they are brother and sister, and I heard that the bigger the person, the more they like men, and the more they play......
Just as Su Mu was thinking wildly, in the seats of the ministers below, someone suddenly left the table and walked out and came to the center of the main hall.
"Your Majesty, on the occasion of the National Day, the minister has a gift to give to Your Majesty to congratulate me on the joy of the Great Yan National Day!"
The person who spoke was Zhuge Qingfeng, who looked at Emperor Yan above and spoke respectfully.
One sentence attracted the attention of everyone in the hall, and Emperor Yan also cast his gaze
"Oh? What gifts did Zhuge Qing's family prepare for me? ”
Emperor Yan asked with a smile, he was a little curious about what kind of gift Zhuge Qing had prepared for him.
It is normal to present gifts at the National Day banquet, and the purpose is naturally for the sake of him, the emperor's sycophant.
It's just that he didn't expect Zhuge Qingfeng, who has always been old-fashioned and serious and can only do things seriously, to actually make a gift, which makes him feel very interesting in his heart.
Other ministers also seemed to be quite interested.
Zhuge Qingfeng said directly: "Your Majesty, the minister has recently developed a new type of mechanism weapon, which is extraordinary, and I would like to invite Your Majesty and all the guests to take a look." ”
As soon as they heard that it was a mechanical weapon, everyone's curiosity and expectation were immediately extinguished.
"Tsk, I thought it was something, it turned out to be an old-fashioned thing like a machine weapon."
"Zhuge Qingfeng is really still old-fashioned, and he doesn't know how to give gifts, so it's good to prepare two magic weapons that he has created himself and give them out."
"Trap weapons, is this thing still used?"
"It's a gift that makes people laugh out of their teeth."
"It's the first time Zhuge Shangshu has given a gift, and people are all in their hearts, let's take a look."
……
Emperor Yan was also a little disappointed after hearing this, he naturally knew the weapon of the machine, and now even the city defense of the city is not used much, not only does it cost money and energy, but the lethality is not high.
But after all, it was a congratulatory gift, and he couldn't show that he wasn't interested, so he said, "Let me see it." ”
Zhuge Qingfeng bowed his head, and then let several wrestlers push a swarthy iron pipe that was as thick as a person into the main hall.
The iron pipe is intricately inscribed with ornate patterns throughout, and the base is mounted on four wheels, which can be pushed and moved.
The moment he saw this thing, Su Mu's pupils suddenly shrank, and his face suddenly changed.
"Isn't this Nima an artillery?!"
What Zhuge Qingfeng made people push in, what would it be if it wasn't artillery?
It's just that unlike Su Mu's memory, the barrel of the cannon is engraved with complicated formations, and there is no lead.
He immediately thought of the spirit stone weapon that Zhuge Bin had told him before, could it be this thing?
But Zhuge Bin told him that it was a strong crossbow with a spirit stone.
How did it develop to the level of artillery so quickly?
This is so open!
Emperor Yan looked at this cannon that he had never seen before, and asked Zhuge Qingfeng curiously, "Aiqing, what is this and what does it do?" ”
Zhuge Qingfeng stood in front of this cannon, and said with blazing eyes: "Your Majesty, this is a new type of weapon researched by the minister, and the minister named it Thunder!" ”
"This weapon is a combination of formation and mechanism, the formation is engraved on the weapon, and the spirit stone is used as an energy source to play a power comparable to that of a monk!"
"Take this thunderbolt as an example, theoretically speaking, the power of a single blow can cause the six-rank military cultivator to suffer a heavy blow!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked!
Everyone showed a look of disbelief, the weapon of the machine can play the power of the supernatural power, and severely damage the six-grade military cultivation? Are you kidding!
"Hmph, that's nonsense!"
A man with a dark and rough face who looked like a farmer in a field snorted coldly.
He glanced at Zhuge Qingfeng and said disdainfully: "Zhuge Lao'er, I think you are stupid to fight iron, right?" Can this broken copper and iron severely damage the six-grade military cultivation? ”
"Is it your Mo family that has floated or is it that our soldiers can't hold the knife?"
Su Mu looked at the dark-faced man, and after seeing Tao An beside him, he knew the identity of the other party.
The Demon Division of the Great Yan Empire, the commander-in-chief.
Second-grade military cultivation - Tao Xianzhi!
