Chapter 2: The Night Banquet at the Palace (I)
Heaven Dou City is outside the city gate.
After the battle of the beast tide, the original gate of Heaven Dou City no longer existed, and even completely reversed the direction, expanding from a side gate of the original Heaven Dou City to the main gate of Heaven Dou City.
This is also because after experiencing that battle, a bottomless underground abyss appeared in the front of Heaven Dou City, which has completely become a forbidden area near Heaven Dou City.
If anyone or creature accidentally falls into that abyss, no one knows whether they will live or die.
Anyway, except for Lu Yuan and the original Heaven Dou Empire army, no one could return from this bottomless underground abyss.
The Heaven Dou Empire had nothing to do about it, but fortunately, although this underground abyss was near Heaven Dou City, it was not very close to Heaven Dou City, and it was still several miles away from the original Heaven Dou City main gate.
But the original main gate must not be in this position, and a new main gate can only be built.
Therefore, the army of the Heaven Dou Empire was also received here by the Snow Night Emperor, the crown prince "Xue Qinghe" and the important ministers of the Heaven Dou Empire.
At this moment, the sun was shining after the rain, and the sun was slightly drunk, and the 100,000 soldiers of the Heaven Dou Empire who had returned this time were in high spirits and stood tall in front of Heaven Dou City.
At the head of the list were the generals of the Heaven Dou Empire who went out this time, Marshal of the Nine Lives, Marshal Ge Long, Marquis Andrew of Fengwu, Marquis of the Wind Ji Luobu, Marquis Xuanwu Shishan, Marquis Sen Luohou Yilusen, Marquis of Agni Fire Yanxian and ...... Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong.
Behind them were the kings and marshals of the four kingdoms.
It stands to reason that there is a distance of more than 3,000 miles from Jialing Pass to Heaven Dou City, and even if a large army marches day and night, it will take a month to return to Heaven Dou City.
However, Lu Yuan was able to open a large-scale spatial portal, so that the 100,000 returning army of the Heaven Dou Empire could march across space every time, so the return speed was quite fast.
Not only is it fast, but it also makes the return journey of the Heaven Dou Empire's army quite easy.
They didn't need to march day and night at all, and even a slightly slower march speed than the normal march speed would be able to return to Heaven Dou City in more than half the time they had before.
At this moment, the gates of the city were finally opened!
I saw that thousands of royal guards took the lead, holding a royal guard of honor and a large roll of red carpet, and took the lead in appearing in the field of vision of Ge Long, Lu Yuan and others.
Immediately after everything was set up a little, a hundred-member ceremonial honor guard played a rousing ceremonial music in front of everyone, which was the ceremonial music that the Heaven Dou Empire would play every time there was a big victory over the years.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of big men in luxurious costumes walked along the red carpet laid on the ground to the army of victorious returns.
The first person was dressed in a golden-red robe, wearing a crown of golden diamonds, and his face was as graceful and luxurious as the ancient moon, it was the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire - Snow Night!
On both sides of him are the current crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire in disguise, "Xue Qinghe" and "Crown Princess" Lu Qingqing.
I saw that Qianrenxue is now also wearing a snow-white prince robe with gold trim, with a thin body and an infectious smile, giving people a majestic but not losing the impression of a spring breeze.
Lu Qingqing is not so particular about her clothes, but she is simply dressed in a moon-white aristocratic girl dress, coupled with her gentle and beautiful face, which gives people the feeling of being a noble daughter in a high position.
Lu Qingqing's eyes were full of excitement and looked at Lu Yuan, who smiled and smiled doting at her.
And at this moment, he subconsciously looked at Qianyue on the other side.
I just saw Qian Lingxue's complicated eyes looking at him, the meaning in his eyes was very complicated, and Lu Yuan could only see that there seemed to be a trace of guilt in Qian Lingxue's eyes.
Other than that, he couldn't see what the other complicated emotions in Qian Lingxue's eyes were.
Because soon, after Qian Lingxue noticed Lu Yuan's eyes, she staggered her eyes without a trace and did not look at Lu Yuan.
The two of them supported the body of the Snow Night Emperor like this, and behind them were Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo, and Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo also looked at Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong opposite with a smile.
Lu Yuan sorted out his eyes and expressions, and then smiled and nodded with Ning Rongrong at the two elders.
In this way, the Snowy Night Emperor led many important ministers and nobles in Heaven Dou City behind him to the front of the army.
Before the Snowy Night Emperor came to the army, Ge Long, Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong and the kings of the Four Kingdoms had already dismounted, and when the Snowy Night Emperor came to him, Ge Long, Lu Yuan, and Ning Rongrong took the lead in saluting.
"Ministers...... Meet Your Majesty! Ge Long, Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong and the others, as well as the 100,000 troops behind them, all knelt on one knee and shouted in unison, "Your Majesty! Hooray, hooray, hooray! ”
"Heroes of the Empire, flat!" Seeing this, the Snowy Night Emperor could not hide the joy in his eyes, but he still tried to speak as calmly as possible.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ge Long, Lu Yuan and the others, as well as the 100,000 army, got up.
"Excellent! You've done a great job! After they got up, the Snow Night Emperor said excitedly, "You are all great heroes of the empire, and I will order the crown prince to reward all of you for your merits, everyone!" There will be a reward! ”
Suddenly, Ge Long and Lu Yuan took many soldiers and 100,000 troops and shouted again, "Wait for Your Majesty Longen!" Your Majesty, ten thousand years, ten thousand years! ”
"Hahahaha!" The Snowy Night Emperor laughed loudly at this time, "I have ordered the royal hunting ground, today all the soldiers will camp in the royal hunting ground first, and tonight you can't drink and meat, please celebrate together!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Hooray, hooray, hooray! This time, without Lu Yuan and Ge Long, they took the lead in saluting, and the soldiers of the 100,000 army cheered.
Wine and meat can't help it, which makes them full of excitement, tonight must be enough to eat and drink!
At this moment, the Snowy Night Emperor looked at Ge Long, Lu Yuan and the others, and said with a smile, "There is also a banquet in the palace tonight, so let's come along with you." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ge Long, Lu Yuan and the others naturally had no reason to refuse, and they all agreed in unison.
Soon, the 100,000 army, under the leadership of the original Heaven Dou Royal Knights, returned to their daily camp and training ground, the Royal Hunting Ground, to prepare to start tonight's celebration meeting.
As for Ge Long, Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong, and the five military marquis, they went back to their mansions first, took off their military uniforms and washed up, changed into aristocratic civilian clothes, and then went to the palace dinner tonight.
As for the kings and marshals of the four kingdoms, under the leadership of the Snowy Night Emperor's close attendants, they first settled in a mansion belonging to the royal family in Heaven Dou City to receive guests, and after a solemn wash, they went to the palace to attend the dinner.
Soon, the night slowly came, and Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong had already washed up in the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, changed into luxurious clothes belonging to the nobility, and went to the palace to attend the dinner.
