Chapter 613 Welcome Ceremony
On the way to the Human Race Imperial City, we did not encounter any difficulties or accidents. No matter where we passed, as long as I revealed my identity, no matter which city lord would greet and entertain us in person.

So along the way, I couldn't help but feel a little bit drifting.

I thought back when I first arrived in the Upper Realm, I was like a rat crossing the street, and I would hit anyone who saw me a few times, but now it is different, I have become a favorite in the human race.

I originally planned to go to the Human Race Imperial City in four months, but we finally arrived in just over two months. On the way, I also saw many metropolises of the Human Race, and also appreciated the power of the Human Race.

The city lords of the big cities of the human race are not lacking in the powerhouses of the fourth and fifth heavens.

At the same time, we have once again seen the tranquility in the territory of the human race. Although we can't say that we don't close our doors at night and don't pick up things, it is hundreds or thousands of times stronger than the security of Utopia.

And before we arrived at the Human Race Imperial City, I had already greeted the Human Emperor, and when we were hundreds of miles away from the Imperial City, we met the welcome team sent by the Human Emperor.

The golden dragon luan carriage, the guard of honor stretching for tens of miles, and the orderly royal cavalry cleared the way.

What a high etiquette.

Human Sovereign is giving me too much face.

And the person who brought this team to pick me up was Li Qingmu who delivered the news to me that day.

It seems that he also has a high status on the Emperor's side.

After saying hello to Li Qingmu, he respectfully saluted me and said, "Prince Chen, please board the Longluan carriage with your companions, the space inside is large enough, all of you will not feel uncomfortable when you get on the carriage." Crowded!"

It is true that the Long Luan carriage is very wide, and it is pulled by twelve strong white horses, and there are runes tattooed on those white horses, which are also rune arrays.

What's even more exaggerated is that the driver of the Long Luan carriage turned out to be a strong man of the third level of heaven.

Seeing such a huge battle, I couldn't help but ask Li Qingmu: "The coachman of the triple angel?"

Li Qingmu smiled and said, "Royal demeanor."

I smiled and said nothing.

My companions and I got into the Longluan carriage. Li Qingmu did not get into the carriage, but rode a tall white horse and followed nearby. As he walked, he said: "Many dignitaries in the city will go to the gate Welcome, you are now the first-class prince. After this meeting, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely give you a lot of substantive powers, and your powers will definitely affect many dignitaries, so they come to welcome you at this time, There is only one purpose, and that is to get closer to you!"

"I hope to get your help in my future political career."

I?
I couldn't help but curiously said: "How can I help them?"

Li Qingmu smiled outside Long Luan's carriage: "You will know when the time comes. In short, you will become a powerful celebrity in the entire human race. Of course, there will be people who want to curry favor with you, and there will also be people who want to trip you up."

I froze for a moment and said: "People who want to curry favor with me, they will definitely appear in front of me, so I am not in a hurry to know for a while, and those who trip me are often hiding in the dark. I don't know at all, can I ask Senior Li to give me some pointers?"

"Or let Senior Li come to this carriage to have a talk."

Li Qingmu smiled outside Long Luan's carriage and said: "Let me just say it outside, I am the guard of honor responsible for welcoming Prince Chen this time, if I don't supervise the guard of honor below, but instead run into the carriage, it would be a bit of a mistake It's in order."

I smiled and said, "Senior Li is serious!"

Li Qingmu continued: "Speaking of which, the number one person who wants to trip Prince Chen is the second-class prince Zhou Yang."

"He has been sitting on the throne of the second-class prince for a thousand years. The thing he wants most in this life is to be promoted to the first-class prince. But after a thousand years have passed, His Majesty the Emperor has no intention of condescending to him. When the throne of the prince is given to you with a different surname, Prince Yun (Tongyun) will definitely be very angry!"

"By the way, the word Yun is the title of Prince Zhou Yang."

"In our human race, there are five levels of princes. Among them, there can only be one of the first three levels of princes, while the fourth and fifth levels of princes have relatively more princes. Naturally, their power is not as good as that of the first three levels of princes. That big."

"As for the first three princes, each will have his own title, and these titles will be conferred by His Majesty the Emperor."

"As the second-class prince, Zhou Yang enjoys the title 'Yun'."

"If you are a prince of the fourth or fifth class, you will not enjoy the title of king."

"As a first-class prince, Prince Chen will definitely accept His Majesty's title when he comes to the imperial city to meet His Majesty the Emperor. I really hope that Prince Chen can cooperate."

I froze for a moment and said, "How to cooperate?"

Li Qingmu said: "I know that Prince Chen doesn't stick to customary etiquette, especially the ceremony of kneeling, but titles are such a grand thing, so I hope that Prince Chen will be able to treat His Majesty the Emperor..."

When Li Qingmu said this, I understood that he was asking me to bow down to my emperor.

But soon Li Qingmu said again: "Of course, it is not always necessary for Prince Chen to perform that kind of etiquette. You only need to kneel down when you are titled. At other times, you are the first-class prince. , there is no need to bow down."

I smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will still give you this face."

Li Qingmu said with a smile: "Prince Chen is indeed a person who knows the general situation."

Human Sovereign asked Li Qingmu to say these words to me, so I have a little more affection for Human Sovereign. He asked Li Qingmu to send me a message, not an order, but a discussion tone, which made him It was easy for me to accept it.

The other party is the Human Sovereign, the lord of the human race, I still have to give him the necessary face.

After all, all my current honorable status is based on Renhuang's face. If there is no series of attention and promotion from Renhuang, I will still be my street mouse in Utopia.

So this Emperor is considered a benefactor to me.

After that, Li Qingmu didn't say who would trip me up, and I didn't ask any more, because I just entered the imperial city, so I just need to focus on the people who dislike me the most.

The carriage moved quickly, and when I approached the imperial city, I heard cheers from the other side of the city wall. I lifted the curtain and looked at it, and found that the city wall of the imperial city was a thousand meters high, and there were two walls on both sides of the city gate. There is a huge golden dragon stone carving, and on the city wall are densely packed garrison troops wearing golden armor.

And there are many giant ballistas on the top of the city. Each of those ballistas is 30 meters high and 40 meters long, which is many times stronger than our two or three-meter-sized ballistas.

Seeing the ballista, Zhou Yin said beside him: "The energy source used by the heavy ballista is purple-rank rune jade, and sometimes silver-rank rune jade is used. It depends on the situation. The strong Taoist bombardment is almost like the top of the third heaven, and its power is very strong."

"And there are tens of thousands of such giant ballistas on the human city wall."

I nodded and said nothing.

Continue to look at the city gate that is as high as [-] meters.

The city gate opened, and there were many luxuriously dressed people standing under the city gate, and those people were surrounded by monks with extremely high cultivation to protect them, and those monks who protected them had the strength of three or four heavenly immortals at every turn.

And in front of those people was an old man wearing a purple-gold robe. The old man was leaning on a cane, and his aura was not weak. Everyone behind him respected him a bit.

At this time, Bei Zuo said: "The person standing in the front is called Lu Jingtian, the prime minister of the human race, with power second only to the emperor and the first three princes, and he is also a celebrity beside his majesty, don't look at him He is old, but he has a very important voice in many political and important matters of the human race, and His Majesty the Emperor often consults with him on many important important matters."

Speaking of this, Bei Zuo paused for a moment, and then continued: "Lu Jingtian thinks very highly of himself, I didn't expect that this time he would personally come to greet the Hall Master, it seems that he also thinks highly of the Hall Master."

I smiled and didn't say anything. It's hard to say what's going on now, maybe he's hiding a knife in his smile.

Bei Zuo continued: "The person on the left behind Lu Jingtian is Huo Chengjiang, the Minister of Finance, in charge of the financial power of the human race, and one of the celebrities in the imperial city. After all, everyone likes money."

"The one on the right is called Chen Liaokun. He is the chief garrison of the imperial city. He is in charge of all defense and public security matters in the imperial city. See those giant ballistas on the top of the city? They are all under his control, and he is the strongest among several people The strongest one, the top five heavenly immortals."

"As for the names of the others, Hall Master Chen doesn't need to remember them, they are just some insignificant people."

I gave a soft "hmm".

Soon the Longluan carriage stopped in front of the city gate. According to etiquette, I should get out of the carriage and meet the dignitaries who came to welcome me.

According to Bei Bei's introduction, I mainly exchanged greetings with Lu Jingtian, Huo Chengjiang, and Chen Yaokun, while I chatted with the others without saying a word.

And those three people spoke very "officially". Although they treated me very well, I didn't hear the obvious meaning of trying to please me. Maybe they just greeted me simply!

After staying here for a while, Li Qingmu said: "My lords, please give way to Prince Chen. His Majesty the Emperor is still waiting in the palace."

Everyone also avoided.

Lu Jingtian said at this time: "Prince Chen, we will see you in the court tomorrow morning."

I nodded and said, "Okay!"

Leaving the city gate, we took the Long Luan carriage and continued on. Along the way, the road was surrounded by dense crowds of people. They all wanted to see the face of me, a first-class hereditary prince, but unfortunately, I didn't intend to show my face.

But even if I don't show up, the people on the side of the street will still cheer when the carriage passes by.

Are they celebrating me?

The people in this imperial city are too enthusiastic!

At this time, Li Qingmu said again from outside the carriage: "Prince Chen, you are the first prince with a different surname in the history of the human race, and you are the grassroots prince in the hearts of the people, so you are their idol, and they can find spiritual sustenance from you." .”

I?
idol?

Also spiritual sustenance! ?
