Chapter 786: Enter the palace and face the saint

After only half a day in the mansion, Lecius found that he liked the East more and more, and felt that the mansion in front of him made him feel very comfortable and at ease, especially the spices sent by the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress, and after lighting them, he unknowingly slept in his own room for an afternoon.

When he woke up, Lucius immediately heard a noise outside, quickly got up and pushed the door and walked out, seeing that Wan'er had brought someone to the mansion and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Lucius walking out of her room, Wan'er hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You are awake, didn't I tell you?" The Second Sage held a night banquet to invite you, but you were fine, and you have been sleeping until now, we have to set off quickly, otherwise we will not be able to catch up with the Second Sage's night banquet." ”

Lu Xius looked at the other people around him, and immediately understood the reason for the quarrel just now, it turned out that Du Liniang and they didn't want Wan'er and the others to disturb them, so the two sides had an argument outside the house.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Lucius bowed down and apologized to Wan'er: "I'm sorry Miss Wan'er, auntie, they don't actually have malicious intentions, they just know that I have a hard time traveling and want me to sleep a little longer, and thank you for coming to pick us up." ”

Wan'er's face softened a lot when she heard this, nodded and said, "Okay, don't apologize, you better hurry up and prepare, we must enter the palace immediately, otherwise it will really be too late." ”

Lucius spread his hands and said very calmly: "Okay, then let's go, I'm ready, there's nothing to prepare." ”

Seeing that Lu Xius was sleepy-eyed and the clothes on his body looked messy, Wan'er couldn't help frowning slightly: "You look like this, isn't it a little rude to enter the palace to see the second saint? When you bought those slaves in the West Market before, didn't you say that we were barbarians, aren't you barbaric like this?"

When Lucius heard this, he immediately understood the reason why Wan'er was so interested in asking for guilt. In fact, he also wanted to get some justice for the matter in Xishi, after all, Lucius said some bad things about the Tang people at that time.

Lucius didn't mind, shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's nothing, I think the second saint should prefer to see the real me, besides, didn't you say that you were in a hurry? Then let's hurry up, in case we delay the night banquet of the second saint, I'm afraid we will all be punished, right?"

Hearing Lucius say this, even though Wan'er felt very annoyed, she had no way to argue about anything, so in the end she could only nod and turn around to lead the way.

Lucius beckoned all the people in the house who came to the East with him. Including No. 3 and No. 4, all of them boarded their carriages, followed Wan'er's carriage, and slowly drove in the direction of the palace.

After entering the Imperial City, Lucius finally understood why Wan'er was so anxious, it turned out that just to enter the Imperial City, she had to go through many checkpoints, and she had to go through a lot of strict inspections, and it could be seen that the Imperial City was definitely a difficult place to enter and exit.

After entering the Imperial City, the carriage stopped shortly after its journey. Lucius, who was sitting in the carriage, heard Wan'er's voice outside: "Your Highness Lucius, please get out of the car, carriages are not allowed in and out of the palace, we must enter the palace on foot." ”

Hearing this, Lucius tidied up the clothes he had changed in the carriage. Then he pushed open the door of the carriage and walked straight out of the carriage to Wan'er.

Seeing Lucius again, although it was only a moment, Wan'er was really impressed by him. I didn't expect that after Lucius changed his outfit, the whole person seemed to change his temperament.

Originally, Lecius looked like a sunny boy, but now he is wearing a tuxedo. He looks more like a gentleman from the West, especially when he makes every gesture, he exudes a kind of self-confidence, which will naturally exude the charm of a unique mature man.

Wan'er really didn't expect that Lucius still had such a side, standing there stunned for a while, before finally relieving herself, looking at Lucius appreciatively and saying, "I can't see it, you are really handsome, is your dress in the West?"

Lecius looked down at himself, looked at his tuxedo, black trousers, and shiny leather shoes on his feet, and then said to Wan'er with a smile: "Hehe, yes, my outfit is considered a Western dress, and it is usually only worn like this when meeting big people." ”

Wan'er lowered her head when she heard this, thought about it and said, "However, it seems that unlike the ones we have seen before, I am afraid that your body is not very popular in the West, right?"

Lu Xiuston smiled: "Hehe, you're right, in fact, what I'm wearing is not a common dress in the West, this is actually a popular dress in the Holy Domain." ”

Then Lucius explained: "You see, the name of my trip is the inheritor of the Holy Domain, so naturally I want to dress up in the Holy Land to meet the Second Saint, which can be regarded as a respect for the Second Saint, isn't it?"

Wan'er was also a little helpless, no longer entangled in the problem of dressing, and walked straight forward and said: "Okay, let's go in quickly, I believe that the two saints have been waiting for a long time, and the night banquet is about to start, we have to go to meet the two saints first, but we can't delay any longer." ”

As Wan'er slowly moved forward, Lu Xiusi and the others finally stepped into the east, the place where the most powerful imperial monarch lived, the Tang Palace in Chang'an City.

Entering the palace from the side gate, bypassing the front hall, everyone followed Wan'er into the deep palace, along the winding path, walking in the palace with a unique cave, and enjoying the unique royal gardens of the East, which surprised Lucius and others.

Everyone would unconsciously marvel in their hearts when they saw the vast courtyard with a hole in front of them, if there was no Wan'er to show them the way, I am afraid that even if they entered the palace, they would lose their way in it, and they might not even be able to find the way out.

You must know that the royal garden in front of you looks larger than most of the royal gardens of the Western Empire, and the most important thing is that such a royal garden is actually just a foil to the entire palace, and the real place where the king lives in the palace is in this garden.

This kind of complementary combination really opened the eyes of Lucius and others, and they didn't dare to imagine how much manpower and material resources were spent on the construction of such a magnificent palace?

Following Wan'er, she walked in the royal garden for a long time, and even Lucius and the others were already a little lost, and finally walked out of the dense garden, and suddenly a very vast field appeared in front of them, and there were already many people waiting in the square.

In the center of the square, there is a raised platform, on which two majestic figures sit, and just looking at them from a distance, you can clearly feel the majesty released by those two figures.

Just as Lucius and the others were stunned, they suddenly heard someone shouting: "The inheritor of Sky City, His Highness Lucius from the Western Continent, led his subordinates to meet the two saints." ”

Hearing that shout, Lucius was still stunned, and Wan'er next to him hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "Hey, don't be in a daze, the Holy Emperor and the Holy Queen are waiting for you, you hurry up, go and meet the Second Sage, don't you in the West need to meet the king and salute?"

Hearing this, Lucius came to his senses and walked slowly towards the high platform, but he was stopped under the high platform, and he looked at the person who stopped him with some doubt.

I was very puzzled why the other party stopped me? Could it be that I didn't let myself go up to the high platform? But if I didn't let myself go up, how could I meet the two saints?

Just when Lucius was puzzled, Wan'er took two steps forward to Lucius's side and whispered to Lucius: "Hey, what are you doing? The two saints are not close to each other casually, you should bow here first, and get the consent of the two saints before you can go up." ”

Hearing this, Lucius frowned slightly, and said directly without concealment: "The visual distance is so far away, I can't see the Holy Emperor and the Holy Queen, and the Holy Emperor and the Holy Queen can't see me, is this also an audience?"

Wan'er was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer Lucius, and the officials and ministers next to her, who had originally entered the palace to watch the ceremony, heard Lucius's words, and immediately whispered one by one.

Many people did not shy away from sneering: "It's really from a barbarian land, and you don't even understand the rules, so you swagger to see the two saints, thinking that the two saints are so easy to see? ”

"That is, I heard that he bought three strange-looking guys in the West Market during the day, and it is said that those three guys are also from the West, the kind of guys who look very barbaric, and he actually treats those guys as the same kind? ”

For the surrounding discussions, Lucius didn't mind, he just stood there stubbornly, raised his head to look at the two saints sitting on the high platform, and quietly waited for the two saints to answer.

Wan'er saw that Lucius was stubborn, so she had no choice but to climb the high platform and convey Lucius's words to the Holy Emperor and the Holy Queen.

The Holy Emperor listened to Wan'er's relay, and immediately smiled and said: "Hehe, Lucius said it very well, I actually feel that sitting on the high platform like this is really a bit too high-exalted, so that I have no way to see some real things, and I will send a decree and order someone to tear down the high platform." ”

The Holy Emperor's words caused an uproar at the scene, and those ministers who came to watch the ceremony did not expect that Lucius's words were really approved by the Holy Emperor, and the Holy Emperor seemed to plan to tear down the high platform and walk down from the high platform to see Lucius, which was an extraordinary honor.

Then, without waiting for the ministers to kneel down and say anything, the Holy Emperor and the Holy Empress had already walked down the high platform hand in hand, and slowly walked in front of Lucius.

Lu Xius carefully looked at the two two saints of the Tang Empire, and found that the two of them looked kind, but they did not have much royal majesty, but they were like the elders next door, and the oppressive aura that they originally thought was completely absent, and even from the surface, it was difficult for people to think that the two were the holy emperor and holy queen of the Tang Empire.

After looking at it for a moment, Lucius knelt down on one knee and saluted to the second saint: "Lucius, meet the Holy Emperor of the Eastern Tang Empire and the Holy Empress Niangniang." (To be continued......)
