The convoy did not stop at the gate of the city wall. Presumably the gatekeepers had already received the news, and everyone drove armored vehicles directly into the royal capital.
The roads in the capital were fairly smooth, and vendors could be seen everywhere on both sides. Shen Fu noticed that when he first brought Yang Zhiyuan to this world, it was in a market not far from the gate.
At that time, they didn't dare to go out of the alley.
As the convoy drove in, the civilians and mercenaries in the royal capital gave way, and most of them stood on the roadside watching. Reinhardt rode an earth dragon to the window where Shen Fu was, and nodded slightly at him: "Your Highness, The sages and ministers of our country have already held a banquet in the royal city, and I also ask all envoys to come to my Astraea family for a while before changing the dragon chariot and heading to the royal city."
Shen Fu nodded: "Thank you."
Reinhard Van Astrea won his father's sword through swordsmanship at the age of five and inherited the "sword master's protection". It is a family of swordsmen, the contemporary swordsman of Astraea. In this case, it is indeed the safest way to stop the huge convoy at his family.
There are no detailed scenes of the Astraea family in the anime. Now, in Shen Fu's view, this family seems to be no different from other noble families. They are the same medieval noble houses with a vast courtyard. If I had to say it, it was probably because Reinhardt's name was so resounding that the maids and housekeepers among them all had a natural arrogance.
Everyone did not stay with the Astraea family for long and left most of them here. Shen Fu, Ji Ming and others got on the dragon carriage prepared for them by the other party and headed to the royal city.
It has to be said that Reinhardt was impeccable in etiquette. The dragon carriage prepared for Shen Fu was definitely of high standard. The passenger carriage was carefully crafted and decorated with many decorations. There was even a huge inlay on the door. The gems and the two-headed dragon pulling the cart have also been carefully sorted. It is estimated that only the arrogant and domineering Priscilla Balière's car can compare with this one.
It was the first time in his life that he received such high-level courtesy and had to pretend to be calm. Shen Fu didn't know whether to feel lucky or to smile bitterly.
This Ji Ming must explain it clearly when he has time. He thought fiercely in his heart that obviously he would have the heaviest burden when he met all the sages later.
——The dragon chariot arrived at Dragon City and entered the city from the main gate.
Step forward towards the royal city from the front and step on the bright red carpet. Surrounded by a large group of people, Shen Fu realized that he was completely different now. There were heavily armed guards standing on the left and right, the sword master standing one position behind him, Ji Ming, Yang Zhijun, and everyone else who followed him with a smile. Their eyes were all focused on him alone.
This feeling, this unprecedented oppression, made him feel breathless, but his blood was boiling.
At the end of the red carpet is a huge double door panel. I have seen this door panel in anime, but I still feel a solemn atmosphere at this moment.
"I have been waiting for a long time, the envoy from distant China."
The knight standing in front of the gate took a step forward, took off his helmet, and saluted Shen Fu. Both of them looked about forty years old, and their statue-like faces carried a solemn aura.
Yang Zhijun couldn't help but tense up. Different from the nobility in Reinhardt and Yulius, he felt a similar aura in these two people, which was the baptism brought by having experienced hundreds of battles.
Shen Fu didn't realize it at all. He had fallen into a strange atmosphere at this time and nodded arrogantly in response to the other party's salute. He turned his gaze and looked behind the other person - the door was slowly opening.
Everyone was watched as they walked into the door. Just like the lobby in the anime, what appeared in front of everyone was a vast space covered with red carpets.
A long table was placed in the center of the hall, and elegant maids served food and sprinkled perfume. The surrounding walls are decorated with gorgeous decorations, and there are luxurious crystal chandeliers on the top.
At the very back of the table was a white-haired old man with a beard so long that it almost touched the floor.
Myrotov, the representative of the Society of Sages, the person with the greatest say in Lugnika, where there is no king today, the deep wrinkles on his face, and the sharp eyes like "blade", can be seen from his posture and demeanor. You can feel the profound experience and majesty in him - this is an old man who will be respected no matter where he is.
But now Shen Fu didn't notice this. The sudden status made his mentality a little inflated. His eyes faintly glanced at some people standing on the left side of the table who were wearing formal clothes and looked like civil servants. The few familiar faces are all characters who have appeared in anime.
Myrotov slowly stood up from his seat and nodded slightly towards Shen Fu: "On behalf of Myrotov and the Kingdom of Lugnika, the Sage Association welcomes all the Chinese envoys."
Shen Fu saluted according to the etiquette he had learned before, and responded: "I am Shen Fu, a descendant of the royal family of the Huaxia Kingdom. I came here this time in the hope of establishing friendship with your country and helping each other."
Shen Fu nodded towards Ji Ming, and an accompanying diplomat stepped forward with a red wooden tray, on which were placed exquisite porcelain and delicate silk.
The delicate and exquisite blue and white porcelain shimmered under the crystal lamp, and the silk as thin as cicada wings shone even more. There were already many exclamations from the civil servants nearby.
"It's such an exquisite craftsmanship, it's simply ingenious."
"I have never seen such fabric before. There is no trace of needlework at all."
Facing everyone's exclamation, Shen Fu just lowered his eyes slightly, "It's just some characteristics of his country, not a valuable gift."
The pride on his face was revealed unabashedly.
"Your country must be a rich and prosperous country to be able to produce such exquisite utensils. Lugnika is happy to establish friendship with a country like yours." Myrotov waved his hand to the attendants to put away the tray, "Everyone, please Take a seat, the party is about to begin."
Shen Fu and others sat on the right side of the long table, and the officials and sages from the other party sat on the left side of the long table. Shen Fu was the closest to Mycrotov.
After the banquet started, the atmosphere was harmonious. Myrotov explained to them the fact that the country now has no king. A wise man also apologized for Yulius's previous doubts. Shen Fu generously said that there was no need to take it to heart. Everything seemed to be heading towards Develop in a good direction.
