Chapter 32: Bow down and pay homage to His Highness
After some trouble, the prince pulled Qin Lei to introduce him one by one.
The prince pointed to the two round faces he had just teased and said to Qin Lei: "These two normal-looking splashing materials are your third and fourth brothers."
Qin Lei wanted to salute the two of them, but was held on the left and right, and the one on the left laughed: "Your brother, don't be polite."
The one on the right also smiled and said, "Fifth brother, your third brother and I are twins. The only difference is that I have a Buddha's mole on my forehead, which he does not. It can be seen that I am much kinder than your third brother."
When Qin Lei saw that the two of them were wearing prince's clothes and wearing king's hats. On the left was a purple robe with five five-clawed golden dragons, four chapters of clothing, and five chapters of clothing. On the right was a blue robe with five five-clawed golden dragons, four chapters of clothing, and five chapters of clothing. The blue robe really had one more mole on the eyebrows than the purple robe.
Of course, the third brother without moles would not lose his mouth and would chatter with the fourth brother.
The prince apologized to Qin Lei and said, "These two were so tightly controlled by their father in the past. Once the father went on a war, these two were out of discipline and were treacherous day and night. I would not sue me if my father came back to see me."
The two guys who were entangled suddenly shouted: "Second brother, aren't we happy when we meet the fifth brother? Don't do that conscienceless thing?" Yuanyuan's face showed a pitiful expression and looked at the prince innocently.
The prince smiled bitterly by the two of them's laziness. He turned around and ignored them, and pulled the two children who had been laughing at him over and asked them to introduce themselves.
A larger and pretty child bowed to Qin Lei and said, "Qin Zhen has met his fifth brother, thank you for your hard work."
Qin Lei grabbed him with one hand and smiled, "Sixth brother doesn't need to be polite."
Another younger child hugged Qin Lei's hand and said in a slight voice: "Fifth Brother, I am Xiaoxiao."
Qin Lei pinched his little face. This child was born to Qin Xiao, who was about eight or nine years old. He looked very cute.
Except for the eldest prince who led his troops, Qin Lei's brothers were all here.
After the brothers exchanged greetings, the prince said, "The princes and ministers are still waiting there. We can't be too unreasonable. Go over. Fifth brother, the second brother will wash you tonight, so don't let anyone else."
Qin Lei smiled and said, "It is better to obey your orders than respect."
All six brothers boarded Qin Lei's chariot and drove to the front of the long pavilion.
When the noisy crowd in front of Changting saw the dragon boy coming, they immediately became quiet.
Qin Lei in the car saw that there were thousands of officials and nobles standing there in a dark place, with black python robes and golden crowns and jade belts everywhere. Qin Lei couldn't help but be shocked.
The third son next to him saw the surprise in his eyes and whispered in his ear: "Except for the expedition with his father, there are almost no officials of the fifth rank or above in the Central City, and there are almost no nobles above the baron, and they are all here."
The prince in front turned around and glared at the third child. The third child stuck out his tongue and closed his mouth, looked at his nose, his nose, and his mind wandered.
Qin Lei then understood why there were tens of thousands of troops of various costumes around him on guard. A strange thought came to his mind: It turned out that no matter which capital, the ones that were most lacking were all dignitaries.
"Dong", a low drum sound interrupted Qin Lei's random thoughts.
After the drums sounded, the robe and the music sounded. Although Qin Lei didn't know what was playing, he could also hear the solemn taste.
The youngest Qin Xiao and Qin Zhen looked at Qin Lei with envy, making Qin Lei feel a little puzzled.
The music reached its climax, and nine strong men with naked upper bodies moved a wooden stake together, and rang a large bronze bell two meters tall. The thick bell rang, which immediately dominated the atmosphere in the venue.
A young and innocent official in purple clothes took a step forward, stood outside the queue, clasped his fists to the princes' chariots and whispered loudly: "Welcome to the Fifth Prince." Then he bowed to the end.
Thousands of officials and nobles from behind said in unison: "Welcome to the Fifth Prince." The voice was neat and loud, and the momentum was magnificent. Thousands of people bowed to the end.
Then tens of thousands of soldiers around him shouted "Welcome to the Fifth Prince" for the third time. Tens of thousands of loud and loud voices were made at the same frequency, which was shocking and sounded into the sky. It seemed that the clouds in the sky also dispersed a lot, revealing the bright sunshine.
Tens of thousands of soldiers were either on the ground with guns, or turned over and dismounted, and bowed to the end.
These three greetings were louder and louder. These three bows were shocking each other. After three greetings and three bowings, there were tens of thousands of officials and nobles outside the pavilion, and no one of the imperial guards stood up, all of whom were lying to pay their respects to Qin Lei.
The princes in the car also bowed to Qin Lei, including the prince.
Qin Lei could no longer remain calm when he looked at this scene. He glanced at the prince, and the prince nodded to him with a smile.
Qin Lei bowed and said in a trembling voice: "I've killed my boys, please get up quickly."
The prince stepped forward and helped Qin Lei up and said excitedly: "Fifth brother, this is what you deserve. Tianhuang nobles have endured humiliation for 16 years. Now they return to their country. You deserve the worship of the people of the world."
The third and fourth brothers next to him also nodded seriously, and no longer looked like they were laughing just now.
The official in purple robe sang: "After the ceremony." After a rumbling sound, everyone stood up again and looked at Qin Lei quietly.
The prince stretched out his hand forward, made a call, and said to Qin Lei: "Fifth brother, please."
Qin Lei pushed him several times, and finally got off the car with the prince. The brothers followed behind.
On the left side of the field are nobles and military officials, who are civil and military officials on the right side. They empty the passage about one meter in the middle. The passage is paved with loess and then poured with water. Every ten feet away, there is a case, with an inner official and a palace maid standing on the left and right.
Qin Lei and the prince came to the first case. Two yellow-clothed palace maids greeted them first. Then they stretched out their white wrists and picked up the whisk on the table. A palace maid with curved eyebrows on the left bowed to Qin Lei again and smiled and said, "Please take a step forward, I will get rid of the dust for you."
Qin Lei stepped forward as he said, and the two palace maids came over to take the whisk and gently brushed him around nine times. The palace maid with curved eyebrows smiled at Qin Lei and said, "Your Highness has brushed away the storm. Please follow me to the next case."
Qin Lei smiled at the prince next to him. The prince nodded and walked towards the next desk with his hand.
Before the next case, there were two more palace maids wearing green palace outfits. After saluting, a big eye on the left smiled at Qin Lei, "Please change your shoes."
