The bustling crowd gave way to a passage with a tacit understanding, leading to a big red carpet in the middle of the square. A majestic but smiling old man was walking in this direction.
The straight-backed gray-haired old man has a golden crown on his head and wears a yellow dragon robe with gold rims on it, making the gray-haired old man look quite luxurious. There are already some wrinkles on his face that make him look...
At least fifty or sixty years old, even so, his
A pair of pale golden eyes are so deep that they seem to be able to see through a person's heart, which makes people feel shuddering. A touch of imperial domineering radiates from his body, as if he is a born emperor, and all nobles cannot compare with him.
He is comparable.
This old man turned out to be the supreme ruler of this empire—Emperor Great Britain.
The surrounding nobles were in a panic and were about to kneel down on one knee and shout "Long live". However, at this time, Emperor Great Britain just raised his hand casually, signaling that everyone should not be restrained.
Following the Great Emperor, two silver-armored guards, one on the left and one on the right, looked very solemn and solemn. They followed closely behind the Great Emperor and stared at the strange movements around them, as if there was even the slightest thing wrong with them.
can be easily detected by them.
Emperor Great Britain did not show any reaction to the reactions around him. He just walked straight towards the eldest prince Gongsun Cheng and Ku Lei, his expression full of kindness.
"Father." Gongsun Cheng spoke first.
After Gongsun Cheng, Ku Lei also made a blessing to the Great Emperor and said shyly: "I have met His Majesty the Great."
The other princes and princesses also said hello to the Great Emperor one after another, and all received a gentle nod from the Great Emperor in response.
"Cheng'er, your fiancée is pretty good, isn't she?" Emperor Great Britain nodded with a warm smile on his lips. He could see that Ku Lei, who was standing next to Gongsun Cheng, was dressed very beautifully today, although she was a little shabby.
She feels small and exquisite, but this does not affect her beauty.
Gongsun Cheng didn't say much, he just expressed his thanks to the Emperor.
"By the way, I thought that my father would not be able to attend today because he is busy with official duties." Gongsun Cheng smiled faintly, but there was still some confusion in his expression.
Most of the people in the audience expressed doubts about the attendance of Emperor Great Britain, but not many people could really ask. Therefore, as soon as Gongsun Cheng said this, everyone in the audience couldn't help but raise their eyebrows like gossip.
I pricked up my ears and wanted to hear the answer of the Great Emperor.
Emperor Great Britain nodded and shook his head, and said with a faint smile: "Originally, I did have something important to attend and it was not convenient for me to attend, but something unexpected happened today and the original plan fell through, so I hurried over to see you.
Watch my son’s engagement ceremony. What’s wrong, don’t you welcome your father’s arrival?”
When Gongsun Cheng heard this, he was immediately flattered and quickly laughed and said he didn't dare. In fact, who knows whether Emperor Great Britain's plan really failed or if he did it intentionally? At least, from today on, many people know about Emperor Great Britain's plans.
Gongsun Cheng, the eldest prince, attaches great importance to it. Just knowing this is enough.
The Great Emperor glanced at the audience again, shook his head and chuckled: "Everyone does not need to be too cautious, everything is as usual, just treat me as a passer-by." Obviously, the Great Emperor saw what was going on in the audience.
Changes in atmosphere.
However, even if Emperor Great Britain told the public not to be restrained, how many people in this world would really be able to do so?
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. Everyone in the world understands this truth.
In response to this, Emperor Great Britain could only smile and shake his head, and after chatting with the people around him for a while, he noticed Goudian, who was enjoying delicious food next to a red table in the main square.
"How do these dishes taste at Gou Qing's house?" Emperor Great Britain walked to Gou Dian's side and smiled lightly, pointed to a plate of special palace mandarin fish, and asked seriously, as if he wanted to hear what Gou Dian had to say.
opinion.
Gou Dian was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Emperor Great Britain had walked up to him. However, he was not too cautious. He followed Emperor Great Britain's wishes and picked up a piece of plump sweet-scented osmanthus fish meat with chopsticks and put it into the bowl in his left hand.
He tasted it generously, then smiled with satisfaction and said: "What a sweet mandarin fish. It's sweet but not greasy, and there is even some sweetness of nectar mixed in. I'm afraid this palace mandarin fish is hard to find outside."
You can taste it. Your Majesty, won’t you try it?”
"Haha, the Gou Qing family is also a gourmet family." The Great Emperor smiled lightly and said, "Although this fish tastes good, my appetite is not very good today, so I won't eat it."
"Your Majesty, your body!?" Gou Dian was shocked.
"Haha, no, no, you are overthinking the Gou Qing family." The Great Emperor smiled and shook his head, then changed the topic and said, "Speaking of which, are all of you 'Sword God Sunset' in place today?"
"Your Majesty, your thinking is a little too fast, isn't it?" Goudian muttered secretly in his heart, and continued without changing his expression, "Most of them, Wei Chen, Su Kongling, Princess Yong, Peng Tiangong, Prince Ying
Your Highness is here, but I’m afraid that Masked Warrior guy won’t come.” As he said that, Gou Dian secretly glanced at Yang Feng’er, who was standing not far away from him.
Emperor Great Britain nodded with some regret and said: "This is a pity."
"It's a pity?" Gou Dian was stunned, "Your Majesty, what's bothering you?"
"Can you tell?" Emperor Great Britain smiled and asked.
Gou Dian almost fell to the ground. The old man spoke so clearly. How could he, Gou Dian, not understand!?
However, Gou Dian did not show this on his face. He just muttered secretly in his heart, and then said seriously: "Wei Chen is brave, please tell your Majesty the matter to Wei Chen. Maybe Wei Chen can help me."
Your Majesty shares some worries."
Emperor Great Britain frowned and then relaxed, and said: "Maybe we really need to leave this matter to the Gou Qing family."
"Sure enough, this old fox!" Gou Dian cursed secretly in his heart, but on the outside he continued to ask questions calmly, "Your Majesty, please tell me."
"Okay, I was indeed right about the Gouqing family." The Great Emperor nodded appreciatively at Gou Dian, and then said, "Gouqing family, have you heard of the Supernova Competition of the Ten Great Empires in the Beast Demon Continent?"
"Top Ten Empire Supernova Competition?"
"Yes, it is this supernova competition." Emperor Great Britain nodded and continued thoughtfully, "This top ten empire supernova competition is a competition held every few decades in the Troll Demon Continent.
The purpose of the comparison is to secretly compete with each other among the major empires, and it also has a great impact on the border trade between the empires."
"If you don't talk about the big ones, let's talk about this sweet-scented osmanthus fish." Emperor Great Britain suddenly pointed at the plate of special palace sweet-scented osmanthus fish with his finger, and continued, "Now, if you want to export this sweet-scented osmanthus fish to the nearby green osmanthus fish,
Luan Empire, then you have to pay one gold coin just for customs duties, which is still not heavy."
"A sweet-scented osmanthus fish costs one or two gold coins just for customs duties!?"
"That's right!" Emperor Great Britain nodded and said with a slight smile, "Now, our Great Britain Empire ranks roughly fifth among the top ten empires in terms of national power. However, if among these top ten empires,
If our Great Britain Empire can get a better ranking in the Empire Supernova Competition, then the tariff that this mandarin fish needs to pay when exported to foreign countries may only cost a few silver coins. From one gold coin to several silver coins, this is just a fish
Mandarin fish, you can imagine the trade balance this can bring."
Emperor Great Britain took a deep breath and continued: "If we can get a higher ranking in this supernova competition of the ten major empires, this will naturally be a good thing for our Great Britain Empire. But
If we are unable to maintain our original position or even fall out of this ranking, then our country, which has been constantly fighting in recent years, will be even worse, and the burden on the people will be greatly increased, which I think you don’t want to see.”
"I wonder what Wei Chen can do?" Gou Dian looked serious and took a deep breath and asked.
"I like you to be direct." Emperor Great Britain smiled with satisfaction, and then said, "First of all, if you want to help me, then you must first have a general understanding of what the ten imperial supernovas are competing against."
Gou Dian said nothing.
"The Ten Great Empire Supernova Competition actually includes many aspects, including martial arts competition, literary competition, six arts competition, and business competition. These are all manifestations of a country's comprehensive strength, and each item is very important." Emperor Great Britain
He nodded seriously and continued, "Of course, it is impossible for me to find the most superb relevant people in this great empire to participate in this competition. I can only recommend them from some familiar people.
come out."
"But," Emperor Great Britain sighed, "but no matter what, perhaps because of my body, this country is declining. There are many dark sides of corruption that prevent me from fully recognizing the real talents.
So many talented people are buried in this kind of corruption..."
"His Majesty……"
"You don't need to say more, I don't deny this." Emperor Great Britain sighed softly, and then said, "This is a national event. I can know that the representatives elected under such a corrupt situation can
It's a lot of weight, but those representatives are after all selected elites. I can't deny that they are indeed elites, but they are not the strongest elites. You also know that among the six major powers, the Royal Family and Shenlong Sect are closest to each other.
, I am very confident about the strength of the Shenlong Sect, so I hope that you can join the rest of the Sword God Sunset to represent the entire Great Britain Empire in the 'Six Arts Competition' among the ten imperial supernova competitions."
