Chapter 480 Grandmaster Banquet(1/2)
Yuan Liang held a banquet. Although Li Chi had arranged everything, no one in the civil and military dynasties had any objections. Instead, they wanted to participate in the banquet.
It has nothing to do with power.
There must be many people who want to take this opportunity to make friends with Yuan Liang and Lin Yi; there must also be people who want to file a complaint and knock them down; but even the enemies support this banquet.
All expenses for the banquet, including labor, were paid for as they were, and herbs were used instead of gold, silver, and money.
In the past, in order for Li Chi to ascend the throne smoothly, Yuan Liang generously sent out a large number of thousand-year-old dragon ginseng and century-old dragon ginseng. Countless people were jealous and countless people benefited from it.
Is it now again?
No matter how much people hate Yuan Liang, they will not hate precious herbs, so the entire metropolis is looking forward to this grand master's banquet.
The name of the banquet was given by Yu Yangming. Not only the three masters Jin Duyi, Lu Sheng, and Ai Yan were present, but also Yuan Liang, Jin Duyi and Zhuo Yi's teacher, Jian Chi.
There are also a group of principals and deputy principals from Qingyun Martial Arts Academy, principals and deputy principals... with the support of the imperial court, even Grandmaster Liu Shan from Tongtian Pagoda came. It is not an exaggeration to call it the Grandmaster's Banquet.
Liang Chou also came, and even the old lady of the Liang family came. He didn't care about our identity as our enemy at all, he just appeared in the capital city openly and openly, leading a lot of juniors from the Liang family around to watch.
Many caring people in the Lin family were happy. They had never seen Lin Yi and Yuan Liang. This was a great opportunity. There were countless dignitaries present. Maybe they would have a chance to become famous?
Yuan Liang was very fair. Since the banquet was set up, it was impossible to just let Zhang Zhang, Zhang Xingxin and other people come to eat. Together with many masters such as Feng Linhuoshuo, snake men and snake women, not to mention the surrender of Xingnan Kingdom, and
The main figures from the tribes in the northwest were all invited together.
Xingnan Kingdom surrendered its troops better, and fought side by side with Yuan Liang several times. As soon as he received the order, he casually gathered a team of more than 500 officers.
The leaders of the surrenderers in the northwest are thinking too much and are worried that most of them will be detained or even lose their heads if they go there...
I really thought too much, but fortunately, these guys were quite bloody. They raised their heads with a knife and retracted their heads with a knife. They gathered a hundred or so people and set off.
They had access to the road from Ningcheng Daotaifu, and their journey was smooth.
As time passed, the metropolitan city became more and more lively, and masters could be seen everywhere in the city...mostly people from all walks of life who came uninvited and rushed to join in the fun.
The news has spread out early, and there will be at least six grandmasters attending the Grandmaster Banquet in the capital city. Some are looking for opportunities, some want to be apprentices, some want to learn from each other, and there are many who simply come to join in the fun.
If it were in the past, all kinds of bad things would definitely happen if these many people from the world got together. Fights were minor and the most common, but they didn't happen this time.
The Dragon Armor Army was divided into small groups, one in the city, one at the city gate, and some outside the city.
This group of scary guys covered with armor, whenever they encounter anyone who is causing trouble, they will catch them all first and ask them what is right and wrong. The wrong party will be unlucky. Amputation of arms and legs is the lightest punishment.
The imperial palace also has an equally powerful team, the prison camp, which guards the political hall and the palace city respectively.
Strong force is the fundamental guarantee of peace and security.
On this day, Yuan Liang finally set off, holding a jar of mountain wine and two boxes of medicinal herbs, and flew to the capital city with Lin Yi on a big black eagle.
Of course, he went back to the Lin family first, but Yuan Liang still went to the political hall and put down dozens of herbs: "Meal money."
Yu Yangming was very happy: "It's for the imperial court, right?"
"What are you thinking about? It's for Li Chi."
"That's the Emperor."
"For the Emperor."
"But we are doing the whole thing."
"The court and the emperor, split in half."
"Three-seven."
"Court Three?"
"Seven! Court seven!"
"June 4, you 6, Li Chi 4." Yuan Liang said: "If you still don't agree, don't go to dinner."
"Agree!" Yu Yangming responded immediately.
After meeting Yu Yangming, he entered the palace and spoke to Li Chi for a few words, then hurried to see the old lady of the Liang family.
The old lady of the Liang family is also really crazy. When Li Chi first came to power, the Northern Dynasty divided its troops into two groups and went south. Now that the war has ceased, the old lady of the Liang family dared to appear in the capital city with a lot of children about ten years old.
No one dared to attack them. Li Chi sent two teams of imperial guards to protect them, and there were also a number of masters from the Dragon Armor Army and Yuan Liang. As long as they did not leave the city, they would be safer than in the Northern Dynasties.
The old lady looked unhappy: "You won't go back when I ask you to. Why don't you worry? Just like your mother."
Yuan Liang immediately diverted the trouble away: "My aunt seems to be even more worried."
Liang Chou was originally very proud and leisurely watching the excitement, but suddenly he became lively...
Chat with the old lady for a while, then go find Jin Duyi.
It’s not to meet Jin Duyi, but to meet Jin Duyi’s teacher, Mr. Jian Chi.
Yuan Liang had heard the name Sword Chi when he first entered the martial arts academy. After that, he was taken care of by Jin Duyi, and because of his relationship with Zhuoyi, he had to come to visit him no matter what.
In my imagination, Jian Chi was an old man in his sixties or seventies, with a white beard or gray hair, but he turned out to be a tall, handsome man with long legs.
The figure is maintained very well and the whole person is kept very clean.
Upon meeting, Jian Chi first expressed his gratitude to Yuan Liang...
On this day, Yuan Liang was a little busy and met many people, which changed his leisurely life a little bit.
The next day, I spent all my time with Lin Yi, and the two of them walked around the capital city.
You can't do it without wandering around, there are always people coming to visit you.
At night, Yuan Liang didn't even return to the Lin Mansion, but went to live in the Wuyuan alone.
At dawn the next day, the grand master's banquet started, and countless people poured into the city early in the morning.
The square in front of the palace was choked with water, and when officials arrived, soldiers needed to clear the way.
Many people came to the Yuan family. Yuan Ming came with his friends, Atomic Giant came with some people, and people from the seventh and fifth rooms of the Yuan family also came, including Zhang Ban.
Yuan Liang went to greet Zhang Ban in person. Ban Ye smiled and said: "You are so powerful now, how can you still look down on me, a servant?"
Yuan Liang immediately called Zhang Zhang and Zhang Xinxin: "Master Ban scares me again, and I will beat you two."
Lin Yi was Yuan Liang's woman, but she didn't show up during the whole process. Jing Jing sat with the Lin family and didn't care about greeting the guests at all.
The purpose of holding this banquet was to support Li Chi and stabilize the Southern Li Dynasty for at least ten or twenty years, so Yuan Liang behaved very respectfully. As soon as Li Chi arrived, Yuan Liang went to greet him.
Li Chi must sit in the upper seat, but for the Grandmaster’s banquet, the most important thing is the Grandmaster. Li Chi also wanted to do something for the teacher, so he dragged Yuan Liang to sit in his seat.
After Li Chi arrived, the entire square became quiet, and almost everyone sat quietly.
The officials and their families would definitely not talk nonsense, and those invited by Yuan Liang were even more quiet. The only ones who dared to speak out were the two babies. Yuancang brought some people from Penglai to teach, and also brought two of Yuan Liang's disciples.
The two little guys looked at the table full of food, their eyes wandering, and they kept trying to reach out to grab it.
When the emperor comes in person, there must be a lot of etiquette.
For the same reason, in order to show respect for Yuan Liang, Li Chi took a chariot out of the palace, got off the chariot on the long street, and walked into the square.
There are rows of long tables, and there are no two people sitting in pairs, they are all sitting alone; regardless of high or low, they all have the same table surface, but the wine glasses are empty.
Yuan Liang was dragged to sit down by Li Chi. Li Chi personally took the jug and poured the wine. Yuan Liang thought for a moment and did not stop him.
Li Chi not only poured the wine, but also held the cup with both hands.
Yuan Liang was a little helpless, but...he still drank.
Li Chi wanted to pour wine, but Yuan Liang forced him to sit down.
Yuan Liang stood up and spoke: "Thank you everyone for giving me face and being willing to attend this banquet. I am a warrior and cannot speak. Besides, I am not here to speak today."
He bent down and picked up an old wine jar: "The waiter will pour the wine."
A few people close by were a little confused. Just a jar of wine? This square is full of people...
Teams of waiters carried wine bottles to pour wine for the guests, but only half the glass was poured.
Yuan Liang patted open the mud seal: "If you don't practice, don't drink it. It's not good for your health."
The voice spread softly, and there were not many people who were not practicing. After all, even Yu Yangming and many civil servants had spiritual luck and entry cultivation.
Hearing Yuan Liang's words, many people couldn't understand. It's just a glass of wine, and people who haven't practiced kung fu can't drink it?
When he was confused, he saw a wine arrow shot out from the wine jar in Yuan Liang's hand, flying into the air silently like thunder.
A jar of mountain wine is just a small piece of water mist flying into the air, but this mist does not fall, but actually hangs in the air.
The practitioners looked at it in great amazement. The crowd watching from a distance could not see clearly, but they were asking each other...
Yuan Liang gently snapped his fingers, and after a soft snap, the water mist in the air suddenly opened up, pulling out a bright patch of light in the sky, like a big bubble.
The water mist stretched bigger and bigger, and suddenly exploded. A jar of wine turned into countless water droplets, and dropped accurately into each wine glass.
Many people watched the excitement with their eyes wide open, but unfortunately they were not cultivated enough and did not even notice the drop of wine falling into the glass. Fortunately, there were many experts, and they watched a drop of wine fall into the glass like raindrops, creating a circle of ripples...
No, do you want to be so exaggerated?
Too many people look at their own wine glasses first, and then look at the nearby wine glasses. In each wine glass, there is a circle of ripples spreading gently.
Someone who couldn't see clearly quickly asked in a low voice: "Is it wine? Isn't it raining?"
The sun was shining brightly, giving the wine mist a colorful halo, like a fleeting rainbow. How could it rain?
