Chapter 563 Supreme Honor(1/2)
They are also civilians in the empire, but they are actually superior to each other.
The dependent subjects of a baron are commoners, and the dependent subjects of a duke are also commoners.
But there is a huge difference in social status between the two.
This is not an isolated case, it is objectively true.
Within the special system of the mechanical empire, it is reasonable to be slave to the master and the noble.
For example, Liu Jin was just a surnamed lackey under Nanxiang Bo's tent, but he was able to flirt with Gruen Augustus, Nanjiu Viscount, because of the identity halo attached to him by Nanxiang Bo Liu An.
But now, Marquis Zhenjiang, the most dignified and overlord-level Marquis in the Far Frontier Star Territory, has allowed her direct descendants from the capital of her planet of origin to appear at the canonization ceremony wearing costumes that are very characteristic of the Red Fengbo.
It's almost unbelievable to be part of the ceremony.
Even if Uncle Chi Feng is the biological son of the Zhenjiang Marquis, he seems to be too favored and too honored.
Not only that, Ren Zhongzong looked around and saw that this huge city had changed its appearance overnight.
In addition to the Chifeng Flag and Yuanxing Flag on both sides of Nianxiang Avenue, this city, which was originally dominated by the original ecology of nature, has actually removed the green plants that covered the high-rise buildings, revealing the original features of the buildings in the post-modern bustling city.
It looks like it should, with four-color neon lights of red, yellow, blue and white shining brightly, and several ultra-powerful three-dimensional projections projecting in the sky, playing some vivid three-dimensional images in a loop high in the sky.
In these images, it is Ren Zhong who led the colonial fleet to leave the Source Star System, went through great wars and struggled to reach the South Nine System, took root and sprouted on the Red Front Star, and then fought against the Broken Star Ring Pirate Group many times.
scene.
Some of these scenes were submitted by the Chifeng tribe themselves, some were from the investigation of the Nanxiang Military and Political Council, and some were from information submitted to Liu An through secret channels by the surviving Shattered Star Ring pirates, but intercepted by the Zhenjiang Marquis Mansion.
.
But no matter what source of images they come from, they all have a common theme, praising the Chifeng clan and the various pioneering achievements Chifeng Bo Renzhong himself has accomplished over the past hundred years.
When these scenes are connected together, they almost become a half-step history book of the Chifeng tribe. It tells how the humans from the source star returned home with difficulty for more than a hundred years under the leadership of Ren Zhong, and then caused the Southern Jiu C star to go through a lot of changes, and then rose rapidly in the face of adversity.
He made military exploits again in the Broken Star Ring, greatly promoted the rapid explosion of his clan's productivity, and many shining historical nodes where the level of science and technology continued to rise.
Of course, the scene where the predecessor Zhong used a crushing attitude to crush the ten elite soldiers of the Duke of Wenle Palace at the investment promotion meeting was also a highlight of the show.
No one expected that Prince Ivan Romanov's personal soldiers would become the backdrop for promoting Ren Zhong's personal combat prowess.
Senna Romanoff, who is on her way back, has not yet entered the Star Gate and can still receive external messages.
Although Saina hated Uncle Chifeng and Marquis Zhenjiang for humiliating her, she still held her nose and opened the communication channel, wanting to see Uncle Chifeng with her own eyes.
canonization ceremony.
Fortunately, she saw the scene where "I want to hit ten" was placed in the highest and most conspicuous place and played repeatedly, and then it was successful.
It's just the scene of the disastrous defeat of her soldiers. What's even more hateful is that after Ren Zhong tore the last soldier to pieces, the camera turned and the picture turned into a close-up of her own facial expression, showing her ugly appearance at that time.
Every detail is revealed, extremely clear.
He could even see the hairs in his nostrils that were subconsciously enlarged due to fear.
Looking at her ridiculous and embarrassing appearance in the camera, she thought that there must be at least one trillion people watching her joke, and by the way, they were also secretly laughing at her master, Duke Wenle, Ivan Romanov.
, Senna Romanoff suddenly felt angry because of the humiliation, and then her heart beat faster because of the anger. Then when she thought about the punishment she might suffer after returning to the Duke of Wenle's Mansion, her blood pressure immediately became unbalanced.
Then she suddenly shouted three times, "Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
After calling out, she shivered all over and fainted on the spot.
Her entourage didn't wake her up, and simply sent her to the frozen sleep chamber, helping her to be out of sight and out of mind, which was considered to be a relief.
The words were divided into two parts. On the other hand, he had no control over what Senna Romanov was thinking. Instead, he was completely immersed in the sense of ritual created by Zhenjiang Marquis for him.
In fact, given his original temperament, he doesn't like these kinds of scenes.
But the situation is different now. After all, it was the intention of Zhenjiang Marquis (Qiqi), so he took the initiative to immerse himself in this state. It was not only to enhance the solemnity of his canonization ceremony, but also to give feedback to Zhenjiang out of human kindness and sophistication.
Marquis of Jiang (Qiqi), lest others make such a big sacrifice, but I don’t seem to appreciate it.
Ever since, Ren Zhong walked gently and steadily down the steps of the luxury hotel step by step.
Behind him were followers from the Chifeng tribe.
Although most of these people come from the Chifeng Ministry of Commerce and do business-related clerical work, due to the martial arts in the Chifeng tribe, what they pay attention to is that a writer can write about the Spring and Autumn Period, and a martial artist can control the world, even if
Civilian personnel also have some practical capabilities for emergencies. Therefore, these civilian personnel look particularly energetic after putting on their Chinese uniforms. They are handsome men and women, tall and tall, and majestic.
The moment Ren Zhong completely walked down the steps and stepped onto the long red carpet in the middle of the avenue, the emcee who had been waiting for him sang loudly, announcing that the canonization ceremony had officially begun.
For a moment, the magnificent epic music suddenly sounded.
People on both sides of the spacious and majestic Nianxiang Avenue raised their arms and shouted with thunderous cheers.
Fireworks with a classic flavor flashed in the sky one after another.
These fireworks have a very ancient origin. It is said that they are a celebration ceremony that became popular when humans in the Gupan Galaxy were still experiencing the Cold Weapon Age on the Origin Star.
Because this ceremony is of great commemorative value, even ordinary nobles cannot use it easily. This traditional ceremony can only be used on very important occasions, otherwise it will be a transgression.
For Ren Zhong, the time is now.
He paused his steps slightly and looked up at the sky, where he saw the trees and silver flowers shining all over the sky, and the colorful flaming meteors falling like rain.
He was in a daze for a moment.
"Are they fireworks? It's so rare. Are there fireworks in this world?"
He murmured to himself, but his consciousness seemed to have left his body, crossed time and space, and returned to his hometown in the 21st century.
The humans in the empire all thought that this fireworks ceremony was inherited from the ancestral source star, but only Ren Zhong knew that its history was so long that it was unimaginable.
"Just keep going."
Just when Ren Zhong was wandering in the sky, Qiqi's voice sounded in his ears.
He nodded slightly and took a precise step forward. The stride length was 72 centimeters, neither more nor less.
As he touched the ground, a new round of fireworks exploded in the sky.
The fireworks formed a huge footprint in the sky.
Among the footprints, there happened to be a three-dimensional projection picture, which was the last scene when Ren Zhong led the people of Spark Town to attack and kill the Demon Infant on the Source Star.
This scene flashed away, but it made the old guys from Yuanxing who stayed on Chifengxing make a special trip to wake up and watch the simultaneous live broadcast. They were filled with emotions and burst into tears.
Ren Zhong took another step forward, and a new huge footprint appeared. The scene inside changed again, but it was the scene of Ren Zhong leading an army on an expedition in the Source Star Enterprise War.
"Your Majesty, Marquis, you have troubled yourself."
Ren Zhong silently muttered to Qiqi in his heart, but he kept walking forward step by step, following the footsteps of the fireworks.
After a long time, he finally finished walking the red carpet and stepped onto the high platform in the center of the huge square in the middle of Nianxiang Avenue.
At this time, the last footprint disappeared.
The scene in this footprint is still the scene where he defeated the soldiers of Duke Wenle Palace with one hand against ten.
As the saying goes, there are only three things that can be done, but the Marquis of Zhenjiang did the opposite. He just kept pouring salt on the wounds of Duke Wenle's Mansion and whipped the corpse repeatedly, so much so that Ren Zhong felt that this was a little too cruel.
It's too humiliating.
But Qiqi took the initiative to explain to him through the watch communication.
"The canonization ceremony actually faces a different audience than your previous investment meeting. Although your performance at the investment meeting was also broadcast live, the information did not reach a wide range. Now, there will be more
Many people have witnessed your unprecedented individual combat prowess, which will further amplify your personal influence. It will not only enhance your status and reputation, but also publicly expose the conflict between you and the Duke of Wenle's Palace. Make this conflict public.
By showing it openly, it can prevent many of Duke Wenle's secret tricks in advance, and it can serve as half of your amulet."
Ren Zhong nodded slightly to express his understanding and thanked Marquis Zhenjiang for his considerate arrangements.
At the top of the high platform, there was a middle-aged man wearing imperial royal robes waiting for him with a smile.
This middle-aged man is a high-ranking deacon of the Imperial Administration Department who came all the way from the central region. He is a serious royal earl and specializes in canonization matters. He has always only dealt with the canonization of core earls who have won the attention of the royal family.
When this high-ranking deacon appeared here, it proved that the royal family attached great importance to their responsibilities.
Many people who have broader knowledge and are more familiar with the hidden rules of the empire have come to this conclusion.
Chi Fengbo's final review score will definitely be good. The only suspense is how high it will be.
The suspense didn't last long. After Ren Zhong took the stage, the senior deacon immediately began to preach. Without much nonsense, he summarized Ren Zhong's many achievements during the century-old review period in very straightforward and concise words, and then gave a speech.
The comprehensive index scores of Chifeng clan and Ren Zhong individuals.
The scoring mechanism is similar to the Origin Star enumerator system that Ren Zhong once hated. It seems that the nine old popsicles were lazy when they founded the Origin Star colony and copied some of the internal management mechanisms of the empire.
The senior deacon took out a sealed envelope from his hand, glanced at Ren Zhong next to him, and said with a smile: "In this envelope is the final rating report transmitted by the Highest Title Evaluation Office of the Ministry of Administration two hours ago.
It’s a heavy responsibility, are you a little nervous at this time?”
Ren Zhong smiled, "It's acceptable."
The senior deacon asked again: "Why are you so confident and calm?"
Ren Zhong was deep in thought, "Because I have been waiting for this moment for a hundred years. From the anxiety and nervousness at the beginning, to the relief later, I gradually almost forgot about it. I only know that I have to do my job step by step, so that I can
The tribesmen can live a better life and create more wealth for the empire, whether it is material, technological, spiritual, or even management methods. My tribe and I have become accustomed to the struggle.
process, now facing this final review, I no longer care. Because I believe in Your Majesty, and I believe in all your Lordships. I believe that your Lordships’ decision must be justified. Therefore, no matter what kind of evaluation I get, I will unconditionally
