Zhang Ang did not return to the Paris Culinary Association, which had become empty, and rested in the hut for the night. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The next day, when the sky was still dark, a noisy sound sounded outside, waking Zhang Ang from his sleep.

Countless people set out from their homes, greeted each other in groups, and gathered on the street.

Today is the enthronement ceremony of Marshal Napoleon, and he will tour the city for a week to be watched by everyone.

By the time Zhang Ang came out, the streets were already full of people, whether it was the Champs-Élysées, the Avenue de Versailles, the Avenue Svalas, or the Boulevard Vonsennes, on both sides of the main road of the city of Paris, under the obstruction of the soldiers of the revolutionary army, there were crowds of onlookers, leaving only the middle avenue for His Majesty the Emperor to pass.

Standing beside Zhang Ang were all excited crowds of people who were waiting and craned their necks to look at the end of the street. Zhang Ang was not excited at all, he just wanted to confirm whether Arnold would come with him.

When the sun was on the third pole, and everyone was a little hopeful, the sound of cheers came from afar, and the cheers became closer and louder, and finally merged into a huge wave of sound swept in.

At the end of the street, red, white and blue flags appeared, and a group of honor guards dressed neatly and brightly dressed in bright armor came from a distance.

Behind the guard of honor was a huge carriage of great magnificence, drawn by eight horses of pure white color, slowly moving forward in a carriage decorated with gold and precious stones.

The carriage was open, and a middle-aged man who was short but exuding a powerful momentum was standing on the carriage, smiling and waving to the people on both sides of the road.

Seeing such a scene, the people around Zhang Ang immediately boiled and joined the sea of cheers.

Everyone roared excitedly, frantically making their loudest voices towards the slowly moving carriage:

"Emperor!", "Emperor!", "Emperor!", "Emperor!", ......

Zhang Ang's eyes didn't stop for long on the carriage, but looked directly at the back of the carriage, where there was a group of people riding horses and costuming their entourage.

Those were the high-ranking generals of the revolutionary army, the high-ranking officials of the new government, as well as some of the great nobles and martial arts powerhouses who had made meritorious contributions in the war.

Zhang Ang saw Miss Sophie, who was riding on a white horse in a beautiful dress painted with red roses, and waved down with the same smile. And beside her, beside him, the handsome blonde man he had seen standing with d'Artagnan, was also riding on a black steed, wearing a bright red gown, and a flower on his face.

Then some of them were people Zhang Ang didn't know. Behind the horseback, there are some people on foot. Most of them were athletic, fully armoured, helmets and huge blades, and occasionally waved a few times to show off their strength.

At the forefront of them was the heavily armed Arnold, who was still wearing the steel heavy armor that Zhang Ang had built for him, wearing a steel helmet that covered his face, and carrying an exaggerated mace, walking forward silently. It can be seen that Arnold should have suffered a lot over the years, although his armor is very bright and smooth, but if you look closely, you can still see the traces of repair on the armor, as well as the rounded spikes on the mace.

Suddenly, as if in a state of mind, Arnold turned his head, looked at the crowd on the side, and looked at Zhang Ang, who was staring at him.

However, of course, he only saw an unfamiliar face, as if sighing, and the tower-like strong man shook his head and continued to walk forward.

The procession to patrol the city was very long, and there were also groups of representatives of cavalry, infantry, and archers who had made meritorious deeds, and it took a long time for them all to leave.

As the team disappeared, the army that maintained order began to slowly withdraw, and Zhang Ang also followed the flow, wrapped in the crowd, and headed towards the Concorde Square not far away.

The official enthronement ceremony will take place on a high platform high in the square.

By the time Zhang Ang and the others rushed over, the square was already crowded with people, and the water was impassable.

After waiting for a while, small figures appeared on the high platform, and Zhang Ang couldn't see it clearly from a distance.

The people on the high platform began to speak, and under the urging of internal forces, their voices were amplified, suppressing the noise in the square, and their passionate speeches began.

After reviewing the speeches of the former courtiers, it was the turn of the former Marshal Napoleon, the current Emperor of France:

“...... I declare that I am now officially Emperor of France!"

Then he took the brilliant crown and put it on his head.

The crowd under the stands immediately erupted in thunderous applause, and countless people shouted and paced, clapping their hands red.

When the crowd fell silent, the new Emperor of France began to speak:

"I can stand here today and become this emperor because of those who have always supported me, many of whom died in battle, sacrificed, and sacrificed everything for France, but I remember every one of their names: General Desai, who was brilliant in the art of war and had a talent for governing the country, died in battle with the city of Marseill......e!

"And those who are still alive and will accompany me in the future to create the future of France: General Sophie, who endured humiliation for many years, gathered strength, rescued me, contacted my old department, helped me set up the revolutionary army, dared to be the first in the battle, made countless achievements, and was wounded many times. Eugène, my stepson, but he was very good, and when the revolutionary army was at its most dangerous, he ran around and said the word to one city lord after another, asking them to support me, support me, and let our revolutionary army turn defeat into victory......

"General Arnold, he may not be famous, but he is the most brave and fearless vanguard general of our revolutionary army, under his hammer, he has killed countless enemies, smashed countless city gates, he has great achievements, he ......"

Suddenly, a roar exploded in the square, interrupting His Majesty's speech: "Ah, my stupid brother, I have found you at last!"

Then under the bright sun, the roar of thunder sounded.

A violent thunderbolt slowly rose in the crowd and rushed straight towards the high platform!

"Protect His Majesty the Emperor!" "Escort!" "Stop him!" ......

For a while, countless people were shouting.

And on the high platform, behind His Majesty the Emperor, three black shadows also flew out violently.

They converged in the air, turning into a gray mist that blocked the unstoppable thunder.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Gray mist and thunder clashed in the air, and countless incomparably powerful energies clashed in the air.

A huge explosion exploded in the air, as if a thundercloud was raging over the square, causing the people in the square to flee in all directions.

There was chaos in the high stands, and one after another martial arts masters drew their swords and escorted towards the stands.

Suddenly, the thunder suddenly enlarged in a circle, exploded, and exploded, blowing away the gray mist that enveloped it, and rushed straight towards the stands again.

For a while, countless powerful hidden weapons in the stands were stimulated, attacking the thunder, but these were all useless.

Getting closer, closer and closer, seeing that the thunder was about to smash into the stands.

"Zheng" A sword roar resounded through the heavens and the earth.

A simple and unpretentious sword flew from the sky, and the last one came first, with a dazzling white light, stabbing at the thunder.
