Chapter 1000: The Triumph of the Lord and Princess
Latest website: Under the bright and warm sunshine, the huge Lion City, the capital of the Cold Flame King, stood quietly on the emerald green plain like a sitting giant.
This long-standing city, which symbolizes the power of the Lengyan King and has lasted for more than six hundred years, is now preparing to welcome its new master.
The crowded east gate of Lion City has already been decorated with red silk and satin symbolizing victory and golden satin symbolizing royal power.
These gorgeous silks and satins are gleaming with color. They are obviously the most expensive magic luxury goods, which makes people feel dazzled.
On the left and right sides of the huge city gate, whether they are nobles in fine clothes, soldiers maintaining order, or ordinary people in ordinary clothes, everyone looks eagerly waiting, staring at the end of the road ahead. .
"Father, can I go out and play casually now? Aren't there screams and fires and smoke everywhere in the capital?"
In the bustling civilian welcoming team, a little girl of only five or six years old, with a cloth bag slung across her body, blinked her big clear eyes and asked the middle-aged man standing aside to look.
"That's right, because Lord Keqing and Her Royal Highness the Princess defeated those evil princes and nobles, no one will be unscrupulous in the royal capital anymore."
With a steady smile on his face, the middle-aged man nodded to the little girl and said: "The haze that enveloped the capital has dissipated. Our king is back. We will all be protected by the guest and the princess, and so will you. You will grow up in peace.
After finishing speaking, the middle-aged man's eyes showed a hint of sadness again. Unfortunately, not long ago, the little girl's mother was unfortunately involved in a fierce battle between strong men in the capital, and she is still comatose on the bed at home.
According to the pastor who visited, she was seriously injured and did not have much time left.
"It's great. Finally, I don't have to worry about my home being destroyed by those vicious and bad adults! I hope my mother will get better soon!"
The little girl's little face was filled with uncontrollable joy, she jumped up excitedly, and then she said with an expectant look on her face: "Father, do you think Grandpa Keqing, who assisted Her Royal Highness the Princess in defeating the evil princes, will grow up?" With three heads and six arms?"
"Grandpa Keqing?"
After hearing the little girl's words, a trace of doubt appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and he asked in confusion: "It is said that Mr. Ke Qing is young and promising. Who told you that Mr. Ke Qing belongs to an old man?"
"Ah? But aren't those high-ranking big shots just old men with white beards and stern faces?"
The little girl blinked her clear starry eyes and tilted her head in confusion.
"Silly boy, Lord Keqing is a young and promising man, not an old man."
The middle-aged man touched the little girl's head and said with a smile: "He put an end to this **** power dispute in the Cold Flame Kingdom. He is our patron saint. No one will be innocently affected again."
"It turns out that Mr. Keqing is not an old man, so will Mr. Keqing and Her Royal Highness like this? I learned this from my mother."
With an expectant look on her face, the little girl carefully took out two rather delicate laurel leaf headbands from her small satchel. They were gifts she had quietly started weaving before dawn in the morning.
Around the little girl, there are countless pairs of equally expectant eyes, eagerly looking at the end of the road, where their patron saint is about to arrive.
Among the nobles at the front of the team, there was also a very lively scene.
In the second half of the team were a group of young nobles, all dressed in armor and robes, looking very excited.
They are all aristocratic heirs who are loyal to the old king. Compared with the young masters of the fallen nobles, they are obviously more upright and less arrogant.
I saw that every noble son was competing with each other to see who could come out on top in the next selection of palace guards and get the opportunity to get up close and personal with Your Excellency.
You know, this is the big shot who helped Her Royal Highness the Princess to defeat those famous fallen nobles and powerful princes one after another.
By his own strength, he pulled this devastated country out of the whirlpool of destruction. It would not be an exaggeration to call him the hero or guardian of the Cold Flame Kingdom!
At this moment, Your Excellency Ke Qing is going to join hands with Her Royal Highness the Princess to enter this ancient royal capital and personally deliver Her Highness the Princess to the throne.
With such great achievements, how could they not make the blood of these aristocratic heirs, who want to make achievements and win honor for their family, excited?
In the middle part of the team, there is a group of aristocratic ladies wearing light makeup and bright clothes.
I saw that these young ladies, who were usually aloof and aloof, did not look arrogant and indifferent at all. Instead, they were pushing each other, regardless of the image of ladies, competing for beauty, and no one would give in to anyone.
You know, it is said that Your Excellency Ke Qing is not yet married. If they can win the favor of such a big shot, wouldn't they and their family soar into the sky and become the most popular new wealthy family in the Cold Flame Kingdom?
The most important thing is that this is the big man who is about to put Her Royal Highness on the throne with his own hands. With such strength and courage that surpasses the Leng Yan Kingdom, how can he not make these young ladies who are just in love excited?
At the front row of the team were the few nobles headed by Wu who were loyal to the old king, or to the royal family.
After several princes took turns suppressing them, most of these gray-haired old nobles have already suffered from vicissitudes of life. They are worried all day long and are afraid that they will not see the sun the next day.
And now, they can finally stand upright and stand under the roaring banner of the Lion King again!
However, while feeling excited in their hearts, a touch of uneasiness appeared on the faces of every old noble.
Although Mr. Wu has explained to everyone that the young guest from another world has great ambitions and will not be limited to the throne of a country.
But no matter what, this is the throne that symbolizes the highest power. From ancient times to the present, countless royal family members and wealthy dignitaries have died under the throne in order to compete for this seat. Almost no one can refuse the temptation of such a pinnacle of power.
From this, everything is unpredictable after all. Who can guarantee that this young man from another world will not be tempted?
Once he really covets it, I am afraid that this royal capital will turn into a terrible purgatory in an instant.
Thinking of this in their hearts, the old nobles all turned pale and swallowed involuntarily.
"You old stubborns, there's no need to tie yourself up."
A rustling voice sounded, and a tall woman wearing a red dress with an exquisite and graceful face raised her eyebrows, folded her arms and said calmly: "If that guy wants to overthrow the Cold Flame Kingdom, you can still do it now Are you going to stand here to welcome that guy into the city?"
This person is none other than the third princess Caroline who was invited by Lei Xiao.
It is worth mentioning that in order for Caroline and Hilda to rush to the royal capital as soon as possible, Lei Xiao even arranged a seamless transfer between Jinglan City and Jiang Lei in advance, so that the two arrived from the Neverluo Fortress almost instantly. The royal capital.
After Caroline finished speaking, the two kingdom generals Hilda and Bai Lao on the side also nodded.
As battlefield veterans who had fought side by side with Lei Xiao, and as senior nobles of the kingdom who had deep contact with Lei Xiao, they naturally knew all this best.
"What the Third Princess said is absolutely true. If the guest minister wants to do something, no one here, including me, can stop him."
Wuwei nodded and agreed calmly: "Your Excellency Keqing has lofty aspirations, but the throne can only restrict his steps. Therefore, to be favored by Your Excellency Keqing, not only do I not have to worry, but it is an honor for me."
After hearing the words of Caroline and Wu, the frightened old nobles finally regained their composure and nodded.
"I didn't expect you to actually lead my sister to this point. You have lived up to my full help."
Seeing that the worried expressions of the old nobles around her gradually softened, Caroline's starry eyes turned and she looked at the end of the road ahead, secretly saying in her heart: "It seems that the future of the Cold Flame Kingdom will be left to you. I hope you can protect this land and my sister...and maybe me."
Thinking of this, Caroline adjusted her uneven red dress, then moved lightly, standing elegantly at the front of all the aristocratic ladies.
Just when Caroline had just settled down, the rapid and high-pitched horn sounded in unison, already blowing the rhythm of victory.
At the same time as the horn sounded, the shadow lord flag with black shadow and gold background and the princess flag with gold lion and red background slowly appeared on the horizon at the end of the road.
Not long after, rows of silver-armored knights holding flags high, riding tall war horses also wrapped in silver armor, came into everyone's sight.
This is a heavy cavalry squadron from the Merchant Family. Although the number is limited, all members are carefully selected third-level nobles and strong men. Their riding skills and etiquette are impeccable, and they are undoubtedly the best candidates to open the way.
For a time, the momentum erupted by just a hundred cavalry was no less than that of a massive cavalry regiment. The nobles and people were excited to see it. This was already comparable to a fifth-level powerhouse at the national level. !
Under the order of the leading knight captain, this heavy cavalry force quickly dispersed from the center and quickly divided into two teams on the left and right. The formation quickly moved towards the city gate in an orderly manner.
In the blink of an eye, the left and right sides of the broad road were evenly filled with knight pacesetters holding flags, and the fluttering war flags made a sound in the bright sunshine.
Before the people and nobles who were watching could react, a vast momentum that was more than one level stronger than the third-order knight squadron just hit them like a strong wind.
At the end of the road, a tall young man and a slender young woman, both riding tall horses, appeared side by side in front of everyone.
This is Lei Xiao and Ariel.
I saw that Lei Xiao was still wearing the dark black leather armor of the Pretender, and carrying the long sword Rolandel at his waist.
The only difference was that Lei Xiao wore a purple robe embroidered with gold threads, which made his indifferent face look a little more luxurious.
In the Cold Flame Kingdom, this special purple robe can only be worn by victorious emperors or generals of the kingdom who have made extraordinary achievements.
It is said that the King of Heroes wore this robe to unite the cold flames and return in triumph.
In the history of the Leng Yan Kingdom, let alone the generals of the kingdom, there were only a handful of kings who were qualified to wear this robe.
"Look, that's Mr. Keqing! Long live Mr. Keqing!"
While feeling the astonishing majesty, the noble lords and ladies at the front of the welcoming team were the first to cheer.
It was this young man from another world who single-handedly quelled the power disputes sweeping the entire kingdom and saved the lives of countless soldiers and people!
This move soon spread to all the welcoming crowds in front of the city gate, and tens of thousands of people cheered in unison throughout the world: "Long live the guest! Long live the guest!"
Under the bright sunshine, Lei Xiao was chased by excitement mixed with fanatical eyes. His whole body was covered with a golden halo, making him look even more unattainable and sacred.
After hearing the shocking shouts, although Lei Xiao's face remained calm, he still enjoyed the feeling of being inferior to ten thousand people.
Originally, according to Wu Ben's plan, Lei Xiao and Ariel were supposed to ride side by side in the royal royal carriage in triumph, but that seemed too comfortable, so Lei Xiao and Ariel chose to ride horses at the same time.
Next to Lei Xiao, Ariel, who was also riding on a tall horse, was holding the reins. She was still wearing a standard battle mage attire. The gold and red slim-fitting robe made Ariel's slender body even more exquisite. .
Such an extraordinary attire, coupled with her fair and increasingly mature face, made her look more like a victorious general of the Queen's Kingdom.
However, UU Kanshu The shining crown on her head and the grace and nobility constantly exuding from her body truly prove that this is a princess who has returned from the battlefield.
She lost her willfulness and weakness in the raging flames of war. Although she faced death and the enemy's sword, she never gave up fighting for Leng Yan, let alone fighting for every citizen.
"It's Her Royal Highness, the Princess I'm waiting for!"
Almost at the same time, excited shouts suddenly sounded in the dense crowd: "Long live Her Royal Highness the Princess! Long live Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
With the appearance of Lei Xiao and Ariel at the same time, even though no one had reached the city gate yet, the entire venue was already boiling to its peak.
The crowd couldn't stop cheering and cheering, even shouting hoarsely. A pair of increasingly excited eyes were filled with uncontrollable reverence and gratitude.
Because what they saw was the savior of this country, and even more so the hero of this country!
