Chapter 1329 Entering the Palace (23)
The third day.
During this period, Mu Fusheng did not go out again.
Instead, he received a message from the prince.
For military exercises, the emperor of the Divine Dynasty held a banquet in the palace and invited them to the palace.
This kind of thing could not be refused.
When the few people left the courtyard, there was already a carriage waiting outside the door.
A guard bowed to Mu Fusheng and the other two and said, "Three, get on the carriage quickly, the palace banquet cannot be delayed."
The three nodded, got on the carriage, and rushed all the way to the palace.
The Kowloon Palace is located in the center of Kowloon City.
When it arrived at the palace for a hundred miles, the air was completely banned here, and even the strong men in the ancestral realm could only walk over obediently.
At the same time, the Kowloon Divine Dynasty was worthy of the name of the Divine Dynasty.
The palace was surrounded by clouds and mist, and the huge gate decorated with golden dragon patterns exuded a strong majestic atmosphere. When the carriage entered the door, you could feel the seamless security.
When you get here, everyone must undergo extremely strict inspections.
Walking inside, Fang Qiong lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked around. The tall stone pillars on both sides were engraved with the names and merits of the emperors of past dynasties. The walls were built of heavy special stone bricks, and statues of rare and exotic animals were placed around them, showing the power of blood pressure!
Going forward all the way, passing through tall walls, the guard knocked on the door frame of the carriage and whispered: "You three can get off. Next, you just follow the flow of people. Don't go to other places. Once you are discovered, you may be ruthlessly killed by the palace guards!"
Mu Fusheng and the other two got off the carriage and followed some ministers in brocade robes to the front.
Those ministers were also looking at the three of them, and they didn't feel surprised. It seemed that they had known about them for a long time.
Fang Qiong said: "It seems that the dignitaries here have known about our existence for a long time."
Mu Fusheng said calmly: "That's natural. Now the internal situation of the Nine Dragons Divine Dynasty is precarious. It's natural to pay close attention to everything."
After walking for half an hour, they came to the hall.
On both sides, long tables have been set up.
Civil and military officials have also been seated in front of the long tables.
At the end of the long red carpet, on the stairs, there is a tall throne. The seat is inlaid with thousands of gems mixed with rich fairy spirit, shining with dazzling light. The wall behind the seat is hung with a large number of precious calligraphy and paintings. Next to it is a dragon and phoenix zither. When the zither player plays, the sound of the zither is like fairy music.
This is the throne of the emperor.
When Mu Fusheng and the other two came in, they felt that countless eyes were locked on them.
Soon, the prince also waved in front and said, "Come over and sit behind me."
Mu Fusheng originally wanted to refuse to sit in the last row, but seeing that Xiao Hei and Fang Qiong had already sat there without hesitation, he could only walk over helplessly.
When passing the first seat under the prince.
There, the third prince and the fifth prince were also sitting here.
There was also a burly man, who was obviously the eldest prince.
However, these are not worth noting. What makes Mu Fusheng helpless is that Jiu Bailu is also sitting quietly among them. When he passed by, Jiu Bailu looked at him meaningfully.
The three sat behind the prince.
The prince smiled and looked at the three people, saying: "How is it, are you under pressure?"
Xiao Hei asked back: "Does the prince feel pressure?"
The prince laughed, "It's me who said too much. Wait a minute, it will start after everyone is gathered. There may be some invitations to fight later, but you can refuse if you don't want to."
Xiao Hei and the other two nodded.
After another hour, all the civil and military officials arrived.
At this time, a shrill voice came from outside accompanied by the loud sound of bells and drums.
"The emperor is here, and all officials welcome him!"
On the right side of the throne, a man in a golden dragon robe walked out step by step, with a cold face and bright eyes. After sitting in front of the throne.
The civil and military officials below knelt on their knees and said to the man: "See the emperor!"
The prince did the same.
Mu Fusheng and the other two bowed slightly to the emperor, but did not kneel.
Soon, this scene also attracted the attention of others.
Civil and military officials frowned slightly.
The first prince shouted directly: "How dare you! Why don't you kneel when you see the emperor?!"
Xiao Hei said coldly: "We are not from the Divine Dynasty. Although we respect the emperor, we are not our parents or teachers. Why should we kneel?"
Even the heaven and earth do not kneel, so how can the emperor of a Divine Dynasty let Xiao Hei and others kneel?
The eldest prince said angrily: "How dare you! Come on, suppress these rude people!"
The prince looked at the eldest prince and frowned slightly.
At this time, the emperor's deep voice came over: "The pride of the Hunling Academy does not need to kneel, don't mess up the etiquette."
The eldest prince nodded.
The emperor looked at Xiao Hei and the other two, and nodded with appreciation: "You are indeed the pride of Hunling Academy. The prince often praises you. Now it seems that you are not in vain."
"Your Majesty, you are too kind."
"Okay, my dear ministers, please take your seats." The emperor pressed his hand. Suddenly, everyone felt an irresistible force lifting their bodies up and then pressing them down in front of the long table.
"We will not talk about politics today, but the military exercise is about to start. I would like to ask you about your situation today."
The military exercise is a regular activity of the Nine Dragons Dynasty every ten years.
It is also a test of the army's strength.
After some questions.
The emperor suddenly looked at Jiu Bailu, who was the first under the prince, and said with a smile: "Bailu, I have never seen you attend these banquets in all these years. Why do you want to come today?"
At this point, the civil and military officials could not help but look at Jiu Bailu curiously.
Yes, Jiu Bailu has always been a maverick as the second prince.
He has a very evil talent but does not fight or compete.
At the same time, he rarely appears in the public eye.
Not to mention this kind of banquet.
Mu Fusheng suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.
No way...
Jiu Bailu raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled, and the tear mole at the corner of his eye looked extremely attractive.
"I'm just very curious about a person, so I want to come and see."
Curious about a person?
Everyone was shocked.
When did Jiu Bailu become curious about a person?
Only the prince raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and he knew who Jiu Bailu was talking about.
The emperor asked curiously, "Who has such a great ability that makes you, Bai Lu, curious?"
Jiu Bai Lu smiled faintly but did not answer, but Mu Fusheng could clearly feel that the woman looked at him.
"Father, please allow me to keep it a secret here, and I will know it in the future."
Mu Fusheng was relieved.
But he was also a little depressed. Why did this woman target him?
Looking back on the previous things, there was no place to offend her!
