Chapter 695: Going to the Banquet
"Because you still have value for use...... Forgive me for being a straight man. [] [On the top than ^^ odd ^^ in ^^ text ^^ net]" Song Li said seriously.
"Refreshing! This king has found that he likes you a little. "War Dragon is very calm and authentic. After walking up the hall of the Criminal Department, Zhan Long had already seen his son's death, and now his goal in life was not to take revenge on Song Li, but to make the Holy Emperor's life uncomfortable, as long as the Holy Emperor was not comfortable, he would be very comfortable.
"Don't be like this, I'm a man with a daughter-in-law. Song Li pointed to the location of the palace and said: "That one is dancing very happily now, and he is looking for trouble with us for three days, and he is not afraid to tell you that this time this black pot of yours is for him, and the person who attacked us is the old man without appearance, and the mastermind behind the scenes is ......."
"Holy Emperor. The war dragon gritted his teeth.
"That's right. Song Li was not surprised that Zhan Long could guess, and continued: "Now you and I have a common purpose, that is, to join forces to fight against the oppression and rule of the Holy Emperor, for this common goal, I hope you and I can form an alliance. ”
"Aren't you afraid that if I leave the imperial capital, I will turn my face and deny people?" Zhan Long looked at Song Lidao.
"I'm afraid, but I'm sure you won't. Song Li said: "I believe that you Zhan Long is not a person who goes back on his word, and I also believe that you can clearly distinguish which is more important, and when the common trouble between the two of us is solved, if you still want to seek revenge on me, whether it is a single fight or a group fight, I will accompany you at any time." ”
"Good. Deal. ”
"It's a deal. ”
Bang bang bang.
After the two of them high-fived three times, the major event of this alliance was decided.
Song Li didn't keep any more war dragons, and immediately ordered people to quickly send the war dragons out of the imperial capital. He was also afraid of long nights and dreams, and if he waited until the Holy Emperor came back to his senses, it would be difficult to send the war dragon away.
In addition, Song Li also burned the corpses that had been collected, so far, as long as the war dragon did not go to the Holy Emperor to surrender, there would be no flaws and evidence in this matter.
A war dragon, 500,000 brave and good soldiers, Holy Emperor, Holy Emperor, you sent me a good helper, I have to thank you. When I return from the kingdom of Rambis, it's time to settle our accounts.
Although the war dragon is "dead", the case of Queen Helen's attack is not really over, and the complicity is in ambush, but the main culprit Zoroastrianism is still there, and the case is not closed.
Regarding the fact that the Zoroastrians dared to send people to the territory of the Holy Lion Empire to do evil, the opinions of the government and the opposition were very rare and amazing, that is, severe sanctions and punishments must be carried out to set an example, otherwise where should the national dignity of the Holy Lion Empire be.
In addition, Queen Helen continued to preach the evil of Zoroastrianism, and the call for sending people to the Kingdom of Rambis to assist Queen Helen in cracking down on Zoroastrianism became louder and louder.
It's just that it should be sent, but there is no result. After all, when you talk, you are not tired, and it is not dangerous, at most it is just a waste of saliva. But if you really want to fight Zoroastrianism, then the situation will be different, it is very likely that there will be bloodshed and sacrifice, and naturally no one wants to take the initiative to take this kind of thing on their shoulders.
The Holy Emperor was worried that he would not have a chance to clean up Song Li, and seeing this scene, he pushed the boat down the river and ordered him to escort Her Majesty Queen Helen back to China, and at the same time send an envoy to the Kingdom of Rambis, and severely punish Zoroastrianism.
The Holy Emperor knew very well that what had happened before had nothing to do with Zoroastrianism, but he preferred to push Song Li out as if he didn't know about it.
In the eyes of the Holy Emperor, no matter whether Song Li knew the truth behind the attack on the Holy Lion Mountain or not, he had to confront Zoroastrianism head-on when he went to the Rambis Kingdom this time.
If Song Li really disobeyed the order, the Holy Emperor would be even happier, because then he would have a legitimate reason to clean him up.
In private, the Zoroastrian is the real culprit of Song Li's previous injury, even if this Zoroastrian is dressed as an old man, but in the eyes of others, it is a Zoroastrian, if Song Li does not act, then it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of others, and then weaken Song Li's prestige.
In short, this time the Holy Emperor made a one-handed conspiracy, forcing Song Li to fight to the death with Zoroastrianism.
With the Holy Emperor's understanding of Song Li, no matter what it is, as long as Song Li gets involved, it will definitely make a big deal out of it. And if he made it too big this time and provoked Zoroastrianism, then Song Li would have to deal with the continuous sneak attacks and attacks of those crazy cultists, which was definitely a happy thing for the Holy Emperor.
The Holy Emperor thought he had no last resort and took everything into his hands.
But he didn't know at all that Song Lifei didn't resist the slightest envoy this time, but went happily on the contrary.
Almost the day after receiving the holy decree, Song Li prepared his suits, said goodbye to his family, and left the imperial capital surrounded by an escort team of nearly 3,000 people, and embarked on the road to escort Queen Helen back to China.
With Song Li's current identity and status, he has the right to have a certain number of guards, and at the same time, because this time he is ordered to send an envoy to the Rambis Kingdom, representing the face of the Holy Lion Empire, so of course the pomp and circumstance cannot be too small, so the escort team swelled to as many as three thousand people at once.
That's it, it's just on the surface, and secretly there are also some disguised people sent by Song Xinghai, so that they can support Song Li at any time when he encounters trouble and danger.
Although the road from the imperial capital to the kingdom of Rambis is long, it is not very difficult for Song Li, after all, there is a beautiful Queen Helen by his side, talking and laughing, no matter how boring and boring the journey will become.
At the same time, because their team is very large, each guard is armed to the teeth, and they are not good at first glance, so as long as the head is not in the water, otherwise no matter how arrogant the robber is, he will not have the courage to run to block the road and rob.
As a result, the road became very calm, and there were basically no big waves.
In the blink of an eye, Song Li escorted Queen Helen back to the royal capital of the Rambis Kingdom.
At this point, Song Li completed one of the three tasks assigned to him by the Holy Emperor, and that night, as the envoy of the Holy Lion Empire, Queen Helen set up a feast in the palace to entertain Song Li.
For this kind of political banquet, Song Li actually didn't like it a little, even if he didn't go, he could guess that most of the people who went to the banquet were dignitaries from the Rambis Kingdom or envoys from some other countries, a group of people walked around with wine glasses like banquet animals, everyone had a stylized smile on their faces, and they looked very kind, but they were like wearing similar masks, and there was a lot of hypocrisy in their bones.
Just thinking about it, Song Li felt uncomfortable.
For a person like him who was pure ** silk before the crossing, this kind of banquet is really boring, and it is better to find a small restaurant to get some peanuts and drink some wine with a good friend such as Da Da.
Of course, this is just his own thoughts, as the so-called which mountain to sing which song, with his current status, even if he is tired of such a banquet in his heart, but as the ambassador of the Holy Lion Empire, he has to participate in it.
First, as an envoy, Queen Helen hosted a banquet to entertain him, which is a very important political gesture, and it is also a respect for the Holy Lion Empire, if he doesn't go, it will not only be neglected, but it may also be interpreted by other people that the Holy Lion Empire is dissatisfied with Queen Helen's rule, so the envoy will refuse to go to the banquet to express dissatisfaction and other information.
This is definitely not a good thing for Queen Helen, who is now suffering from internal and external troubles.
Second, Song Li had a lot of ambiguities with Queen Helen along the way, and the relationship between the two had already become intimate and harmonious, except for Song Li who had not pushed him down, the others had almost done it all over again.
As Queen Helen's husband-to-be, now that Queen Helen is holding a banquet, he has to go to support him without hesitation, and help him support the scene.
Therefore, no matter how unhappy Song Li was, when the banquet began, he still appeared in the banquet hall.
"Next, let me introduce to you, the one who is by my side is the envoy of the Holy Lion Empire who escorted me back from the Holy Lion Empire, and is also the envoy of the Holy Lion Empire who sent me to the Rambis Kingdom, the dignified governor of the Nine Counties, and the Ming King of the Holy Lion Empire, Song Li. Queen Helen gave a very grand introduction to Song Li.
"Hello everyone, I'm Song Li. Song Li also nodded to everyone present very cooperatively.
"Hello. ”
"I have admired the name for a long time, and when I see it today, I am really fortunate to have three lives. ”
"I'm going to hold a banquet at home tomorrow, I don't know if Lord Song is willing to come to the banquet with a face. ”
As soon as Song Li's identity was announced, he was immediately warmly welcomed by everyone attending the banquet. The scene suddenly became much warmer than before.
The courtiers who supported Queen Helen were naturally very happy at this time, because in their opinion, the Holy Lion Empire was able to send such a high-level envoy headed by Song Li, which definitely showed that the Holy Lion Empire attached great importance to this envoy activity, and also showed that His Majesty the Holy Emperor of the Holy Lion Empire recognized Queen Helen.
Otherwise, you only need to send a minister to the Rambis Kingdom casually, and you don't need to send a prince over at all.
As long as it can be recognized by the Holy Lion Empire, it is of great significance for Queen Helen to stabilize the domestic situation, suppress the Zoroastrian pressing, and stabilize Queen Helen's own position.
And the courtiers who opposed Queen Helen's rule, and who were in close contact with the Zoroastrians, and who had many collusions in private, were also aware of this, but their mood was far less comfortable than the former.
They originally thought that Queen Helen was out of control and facing a downfall, so they moved to other thoughts.
Originally, these people thought that Queen Helen's replacement by Zoroastrianism was basically a sure thing, and they would be able to get greater benefits by serving in advance
