282. Chapter 280
This night, the grandfather and grandson were really drunk!
After confirming that Du Long had indeed reached the first-order strength of Gangdan, Old Man Du was both excited and shocked, and finally pulled Du Long to drink high together.
Xia Qinglian sat on the side, pouring wine for her grandfather and grandson from time to time, but she never persuaded the two of them to take it in moderation, it was rare to be happy, she naturally couldn't be disappointed!
Early the next morning, when Du Long was still asleep, a large group of friends from the Royal Academy, led by Du Caini, all rushed over, and directly pulled him up who was sleeping lazily on his stomach with his butt facing the sky.
"Big lazy pig, the sun is all in the sun, and you're still sleeping?! There's a lot of people waiting for you outside!" Du Caini yelled almost by the ears of his ears.
For a while, all the drowsiness was gone, Du Long quickly got up and washed, and then came to the East Wing living room under the leadership of the first sister!
Before entering the door, I heard the noisy conversation in the living room, a group of friends from Haotian Royal Academy all came, and Du Mu Zhou Ruoxue also sat on the main seat with a radiant face.
"Husband, you can get up! People came over early in the morning, and I heard that you had a drink with your grandfather until dawn last night, so I didn't wake you up!" Seeing Du Long enter the living room, Princess Huofeng, who had rushed over from the palace early, flashed over and took his arm and said in a coquettish voice.
Patting her jade hand, Du Long turned his head to look at the many friends in the living room and smiled: "Damn! All came here so early?! I didn't sleep all night last night!"
"It's lunch time in a while, are you embarrassed to say it's early?! I picked you up at dawn, it's already for the sake of Princess Huofeng's face!" Liu Zixin, a resentful woman, rolled her eyes on the spot and said.
"Hehe, is it so late?!I'm sorry to make the big guy wait so long!" Du Long scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.
"Haha! Du Long, since you feel sorry for us brothers, shouldn't you invite everyone to the Tianlong Hotel for a big meal?! We have heard in the Royal Academy, everywhere you go, you will definitely take the richest slave owners, big nobles and the like, this will be estimated to be fat, right?!" Su Jinbao, a foodie, immediately coaxed.
"That's right, that's right! It's time to let this guy bleed, this battle, he must have made a lot of money!" Zeng Wan'er immediately shouted.
"I heard that at the celebration banquet in the palace last night, the queen also decided to marry Du Long and Huofeng at the end of the year!
“......”
In the living room, a group of friends were talking there unscrupulously, and no one regarded Du Long as the commander of the three armies of the Haotian Empire, and they all treated him as a big fat sheep.
In this regard, Du Long was very pleased, he was afraid that the higher his achievements, the more distant these friends would become from him!
In fact, Du Long's behavior when he first came in was so casual, which dispelled the last trace of concern in everyone's hearts, otherwise, when he first stepped into the door, everyone on the scene obviously felt a trace of pressure!
On the second day after returning to the capital, Du Long was slaughtered by a group of friends, and then he paid off the 100 million gold coins borrowed by Su Jinbao on the spot.
Subsequently, all the friends talked about the grand event of the Immortal Alliance, never thinking that as senior students of the martial arts cultivation department of the Haotian Empire, everyone present had the opportunity to participate in the grand event.
So, as soon as everyone summed up, they decided to make an appointment and walk together!
Su Jinbao even patted his chest and promised that as long as he arrived in the Dongyang Kingdom, he would eat him and live in him, everything would be covered, and the Dongyang Kingdom would be his land after all!
After a day of gathering with friends, Du Long also did his best to be a landlord in the following time, inviting the Prairie King, Luo Hao, and Kang Tuo generals to Du Mansion for a family banquet.
Directly invite a few legion leaders to the house for a banquet, and it is also an ordinary family banquet, not only will not make the generals feel rude, but can also feel Du Long's closeness to him, and they are all happy, and the guests and hosts are happy!
The king of the steppe could not stay in the capital for a long time, after all, there were still many important things to deal with in their respective armies, so the day after the banquet in Dufu, they resigned and went back to their respective territories.
It just so happened that the King of the Grassland, Kang Tuo, Gais, and others stopped by the way, so they took the escort team south to Chilong Gorge together, and went directly back to Qingyun Grassland from Chilong Gorge!
After personally sending off the Prairie King and other generals, Du Long was idle and went to the military headquarters from time to time every day.
Now everyone in the Haotian Military Department respects him like a god, thinking that at the beginning, when discussing why the Blue Moon Empire would use troops in Chiyue Pass for a long time in the military department, many people expressed doubts about Du Long's comments.
Well, now it turns out how far-sighted he was, he actually saw through the conspiracy of the Blue Moon Empire a year or two ago!
In the military department, Du Long was invited many times by the new and old emperors, invited him to the palace to dine together, and talked about the future development of the empire's military strength and how to get along with the Blue Moon Empire in the future.
The old emperor also asked about why he didn't use the Demon Beast Legion in the Great War, and learned that Du Long actually wanted to use the Demon Beast Legion in the Battle of the Hexi Corridor, but unfortunately, the Blue Moon Empire was too fragile, and it was actually defeated on the spot, and there was no need to expose the existence of the Demon Beast Legion.
Du Long systematically analyzed the situation that the two empires of Haotian and Blue Moon might have in the future, and the two emperors nodded frequently, and their admiration for him had reached the point of no return!
The old emperor finally sighed to the new emperor in private: "What a pity! If this son is a child of the imperial family, he will definitely be the most suitable heir to the emperor!"
At the military headquarters, Du Long specially asked the chief officer of the Privy Council about the pursuit of the remnants of the Fan family, and it was reported that most of the members of the Fan family were successfully arrested and entered the Dali Temple for strict examination.
There are only a few children of the Fan family, because they fled the empire very early, so they were not arrested, and Fan Tong's name was among them, and Fan Wei was not so lucky.
In addition to the Fan family, several other families that have anything to do with it, such as the Li family, the Zhao family and other families that Du Long is familiar with, including the Du Zhennan family and so on, most of them have also been arrested.
Li Xiaojun, Dewey and others that Du Long knew are now all in prison, and they are all eating prison meals in Dali Temple!
Zhao Guodong, the second-grade minister of the household department, that is, Yue Lin'er's father, the one who came to Du Mansion to withdraw from the marriage on the first day of Du Long's rebirth, he did not end well, there is evidence that as the second-grade minister of the household department, he actually covered for the Fan family, made false accounts and so on.
Therefore, Zhao Guodong's crime is also very serious, and the entire Zhao family has been implicated and imprisoned!
Du Long subconsciously noticed that Zhao Lin'er's name was not on the Zhao family's prison list, and he had long heard that this woman had run away, and she was lucky to escape this catastrophe......
Xingchen calendar, March 20, 1010, ten days after returning to the capital, under the tearful send-off of his mother Zhou Ruoxue, Du Long set off again!
This time, he did not travel alone, but rushed to the Dongyang Kingdom with all his friends from Haotian Royal Academy to participate in the once-in-a-decade event!
At least more than 100 people from Haotian Royal Academy have received invitations from the Immortal League, and some people travel with the team organized by the academy, like Du Long, they are unwilling to go with the team, and it is not a problem to set off on their own!
There is an invitation letter issued by the Immortal Alliance, which is definitely not a little worse than the customs clearance tokens of various countries!
A group of young people set off in advance, not in a hurry, but in response to Du Long's call, first went to the territory of Fengli County, the battle of the Hexi Corridor, due to a change in the plan, failed to use the demon beast army, Du Long had to explain to the high-level in the territory, let them make preparations in the next time, etc.
In Fengli County, Dulong naturally has to do his best to make the friendship of the landlord, invite all friends to enjoy the mountains and rivers in the territory, and at the same time, please also enjoy the delicious meal with local characteristics!
After both work and play were taken care of, this group of young talents from the Royal Academy of the Haotian Empire finally embarked on the journey south again.
Rushed all the way to Chilong Gorge, where I visited the garrison of the Loyal Martial Army, and felt the traces of the battle of Chilong Gorge that are still in this day, and then continued to the Qingyun Grassland!
In the Qingyun Grassland, everyone went to the holy city of Hassanmu for a walk!
In the Prairie King's Palace, Du Long and his entourage met the Prairie King and the Qingling County Lord, and received warm hospitality!
I haven't seen her for a few months, this grassland princess seems to have lost a lot of weight, and the skin on her face has lost its former white luster, looking at Du Long's gaze is very strange, and it seems to have a faint sense of grievance!
The once carefree and sunny princess of the prairie has now become this worried look, which makes Du Long feel very uncomfortable.
It seemed that he could feel that the beautiful princess of the grassland looked at Du Long differently, and at the banquet, Su Jinbao quietly asked Du Long: "I said brother, are you bullying other people's princess of the grassland? !
Burst!!!
After being ridiculed by Su Jinbao like this, Du Long squirted out the wine in his mouth on the spot!
