reborn as a god

"Rebirth as a God" Chapter 193: Palace Banquet (Part 1)

The shock this shot brought to them was really great. Even Princess Tianhe, who had already seen the power of this sniper rifle, and the fifth prince Xia Shuo himself, who fired the gun himself, were also shocked by the power of this shot.

Already.

After a long while, Xia Houyuan burst out laughing, and said excitedly: "Hahahaha, okay, okay! Shuo'er, you have made a great contribution this time. The merits and demerits are equal to each other, haha!!!"

"Thank you, Father!" Xia Shuo was also very excited at this moment. The gun called "79 Trial Sniper Rifle" that Ouyang gave him was such a surprise to him.

Although Ouyang still stays in his own manor, he knows everything about what happened in the palace. Ouyang is still quite curious about this palace. The general structure of this palace is similar to the outdated palaces in China on Earth.

It’s not much different. It’s also square, divided into three palaces and six courtyards, and there are two inner and outer palaces.

As for the internal guards of this palace, Ouyang also made a special study of it. It is undeniable that although the Chinese Empire is gradually declining at this moment, the emperor is still very strict about the guards of his palace. There are only Ouchi guards in the entire palace (quite a few).

There are thousands of bodyguards in Zhongnanhai, and there are also magic troupes. The lowest professional level of these magicians in the magic troupe is senior, and there are also many great magicians, magisters, and grand magisters above senior magicians.

However, there is only one Holy Mage. You must know that the Holy Mage is the highest level in the magician profession. There are only a few in the entire continent, but the Chinese Empire has one. This can also show that although the Chinese Empire has gradually declined

, but it should not be underestimated.

In addition to the Ouchi guards and magic corps, there are also a hundred thousand imperial troops and imperial guards. It can be said that the defense is very tight.

However, these defensive powers are not enough for Ouyang. In Ouyang's words, these people are purely of no use. If he is willing, he can break through these defenses in an instant and kill these people.

No scraps of armor are left.

Now, Ouyang saw the excitement of the emperor of the Chinese Empire after seeing the huge power of this gun. Ouyang knew another easier way to get the sword. When he thought that he was about to complete the S-level

Ouyang couldn't help but burst into laughter. The laughter almost shattered the furniture in his room.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Ouyang discovered something was wrong in time, and stopped his terrifying laughter in time, so that the furniture in his room was not destroyed.

"It's so dangerous, so dangerous. Otherwise, we will be in trouble again!" Ouyang patted his chest and said to himself.

…

The banquet held in the palace was grand. All the officials at all levels and the wealthy people who had received invitations were all dressed up and went to the palace. When Ouyang arrived, Ouyang and Di were in the capital.

My friends Shangguan Keshuang and Tang Yin had already arrived at the gate of the imperial city, waiting there for Ouyang Di's arrival.

Therefore, as soon as Ouyang's sedan arrived at the gate of the imperial city, Shangguan Keshuang and Tang Yiner immediately greeted him.

"Brother Ou, why are you here just now? Brother Tang and I have been waiting here for a long time." Shangguan Keshuang said quickly when he saw Ouyang getting off the sedan. It was obvious that he had indeed been waiting for a long time.

Ouyang was also very depressed. The banquet obviously started in the evening, but just a few minutes after noon, the two people in front of him sent someone to invite him over. He really didn't know what the purpose of coming so early was.

What's the use?

However, as soon as Ouyang got off the sedan, he saw so many sedans parked at the entrance of the imperial city. Ouyang knew that it was probably such a formal large-scale banquet held in the palace, and there was such a rule of arriving early.

Ouyang said apologetically: "I'm sorry, you two, I kept you waiting for so long. Why haven't you gone in yet?" Ouyang looked around. Not only Tang Yin and Shangguan Keshuang, but also the other people were standing there.

At the gate of the imperial city, no one went in. Among these people, except for the wealthy people in the capital, even the "princelings" in the capital, such as Sima Kong and Zhou Kangming, all stood in front of the imperial city.

It was freezing at the city gate.

But Zhou Kangming saw that Ouyang was coming, and walked towards Ouyang excitedly. As he walked, he held his hands towards Ouyang and said, "Brother Ou, I didn't expect you to come too, haha!"

"Haha, yes. Brother Zhou, why are you all standing here and not going in? Aren't the city gates always open?" Ouyang asked in confusion.

Hearing Ouyang's question, Zhou Kangming, Shangguan Keshuang and Tang Yin laughed, and then Tang Yin said: "Brother Ou, it's your first time to attend such a banquet, so you don't know. Attending a palace banquet held by His Majesty the Emperor, there is nothing wrong with it."

Official guests are not allowed to enter the imperial city until His Majesty the Emperor's imperial edict arrives. Now His Majesty the Emperor's imperial edict has not arrived, so we cannot enter and can only wait here. But according to usual practice, the imperial edict should be arriving soon.

.”

Ouyang nodded, "I see! Why are you all standing here and not going in? Haha! But since you have to wait for the imperial edict to arrive before you can enter, is it necessary for you to arrive so early? The banquet doesn't start at night.

Really? You’ve arrived so early and there’s nothing to do?”

In the morning, when Ouyang was still sleeping, Shangguan Keshuang and Tang Yin both sent servants to ask Ouyang to rush to the gate of the palace. To his dismay, Ouyang was called by Lin Siyu before he had had enough sleep.

When he woke up, he naturally felt very depressed.

Tang Yin said: "Although the banquet only starts in the evening, as usual, His Majesty the Emperor will receive us from noon. It would be disrespectful to be late." Ouyang nodded to express his understanding. Also, when the Emperor wants to receive you, you

But coming late is indeed a great disrespect for the emperor.

At this time, a man wearing blue brocade clothes suddenly walked out of the imperial city. Judging from this man's clothes, Ouyang knew that this man was definitely a eunuch. Because, when Ouyang was on earth, this clothes and Ouyang once again

The clothes of the Ming Dynasty eunuchs that I saw when I went to the museum were too similar.

The colors are not the same.

Not only that, the eunuch-like hands were holding a roll of yellow silk cloth. Ouyang knew that this should be the imperial edict. Sure enough, when the eunuch walked to the city gate, his body that had been hunched over suddenly straightened up.

He straightened up a lot, and shouted loudly: "The imperial edict, everyone accepts it!" At the same time, a pair of eyes slowly swept over Ouyang and the others.

Immediately, Shangguan Keshuang, Zhou Kangming and Tang Yin who were standing with Ouyang all knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live". Outside the entire imperial city gate, except for the guards and the eunuch, there were only

Ouyang was still standing there.

"It's his grandma's fault. I've never knelt before anyone in my life. It's his grandma's delusion to ask me to kneel down to accept this imperial edict!" Ouyang thought to himself. After all, he is also the creator of this universe. From a certain perspective

He said that everyone in this world is his people, and if he kowtows to his people, isn't that a bad thing?

Besides, even on earth, Ouyang has never knelt down to anyone. Although he kneels to the sky and the ground to kneel to his parents, Ouyang has never knelt down to his own parents, let alone what kind of emperor he is. Moreover,

Isn't he also the emperor of the Mars Empire? After all, he and the emperor of the Chinese Empire are at the same level, so how can he degrade himself?

Therefore, Ouyang still stood there motionless, ignoring the guards who were watching him with eager eyes, and even more ignorant of Zhou Kangming's constant tugging on his clothes.

"Bold. Why don't you kneel down to receive the imperial edict?" the eunuch shouted loudly at Ouyang. When he said the two words "imperial edict", he held the imperial edict high to show his respect for the emperor.

Before Ouyang could speak, a burst of rapid horse hooves suddenly sounded from within the imperial city. Ouyang raised the corner of his mouth slightly and thought to himself: "The people sent by the emperor were in time, otherwise they really don't know what to do.

"Actually, as soon as the sound of horse hooves came, Ouyang already knew that the person riding on horseback was the eunuch sent by Xia Houyuan, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, to exempt himself from the ceremony of kneeling.

Sure enough, as soon as the man who came on horseback arrived at the gate of the imperial city, he jumped off the horse with great agility, and at the same time whispered something to the eunuch who was delivering the order. After hearing the words of the person who came, the eunuch who was delivering the order looked at Ouyang.

Immediately, another layer of meaning appeared in his eyes. Then, he no longer cared whether Ouyang knelt down or not, and directly opened the imperial edict in his hand.

It's the same as what's shown on TV, it also starts with the same few words and ends with the same words, but the meanings of those in the middle are different.

After that, he called Long Live the Mountain again. Seeing these etiquettes, Ouyang suddenly felt like his head was as big as a bucket. Fortunately, he didn't need to do this. Thinking of this, Ouyang felt very grateful to Princess Hualing. Because Ouyang knew that for this emperor

He said that he never kneeled down to others, and his hometown did not like this kind of thing. Ouyang only told Princess Hualing.

Shangguan Keshuang, Tang Yin, Zhou Kangming and others stood up from the ground after shouting "Long Live the Mountain", and then one after another people walked into the imperial city.

"Brother Ou, you just scared me. Why were you so stunned when the imperial edict arrived? If we were to investigate, this would be a serious crime, and it would be a matter of losing your head." Zhou Kangming said,

He also wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his sleeve. It can be seen that he was indeed sweating a lot for Ouyang just now.

Ouyang smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Zhou, I'm really sorry. Don't I have little knowledge? In our hometown, there is a popular saying, 'A man has gold under his knees. He only kneels to the heaven and earth and his parents!'. So I saw you just now

They all knelt down and I didn't react for a moment!" Ouyang explained.

"Brother Ou, don't be frightened when you enter the palace and see His Majesty the Emperor's face later. If the Emperor gets angry, we won't be able to save you," Shangguan Keshuang also said.

Ouyang nodded gratefully. After a while, only Ouyang, Shangguan Keshuang, Zhou Kangming and Tang Yin were left at the entrance of the imperial city. The other people had already walked inside.

"We'd better go in first. Don't you think it's disrespectful to ask His Majesty the Emperor to wait for us? If we don't go faster, we'll be late!" Ouyang said in order to avoid the "verbose words" of these three friends who had just met for a few days.

", and quickly moved the Emperor Xiahouyuan out.

After hearing what Ouyang said, and seeing that those people were indeed ahead of them, Shangguan Keshuang and the others couldn't help complaining to Ouyang, but at this time they had no time to talk about Ouyang anymore, so they picked up their bags.

The servants who came handed over the brocade boxes one by one, and then ran towards the imperial city like they were running for their lives.

Seeing the anxious look of the three of them, Ouyang couldn't help but smile, turned his head and said softly to his subordinate standing not far behind. Immediately, a special soldier came up carrying a big box, and then

He handed the box into Ouyang's hands.

Ouyang lifted up this big black box with one hand. It is a box, but it is better to say it is a black cello box. What is contained here is the gift that Ouyang prepared to give to the emperor of the Chinese Empire. This gift is also a handful.

gun.

But this gun is not the pistol that Ouyang gave to Princess Hualing, nor is it the sniper rifle that Ouyang gave to Xia Shuo. What Ouyang gave this time is a heavy machine gun - q~.

Carrying such a big box, Ouyang followed Shangguan Keshuang, Tang Yin and Zhou Kangming and walked towards the imperial city.

Once you enter the imperial city, you truly enter the palace.

"Brother Ou, what did you put in the box? Judging from the appearance of the box you are carrying, it seems to be quite big." Shangguan Keshuang couldn't help but be curious when he saw Ouyang carrying such a big box up.

asked.

Ouyang smiled and said: "Haha, actually it's nothing, it's just a gun, but you guys, look at how cautious you are, for fear of breaking it, what's inside." In fact, they don't need to answer, Ouyang is already there.

I already knew that what they gave was nothing more than antique calligraphy and paintings. You can't just give money directly to the emperor, that would be too tacky.

Zhou Kangming smiled and said: "What I have in this box is a sword carried by a general from the previous dynasty. It can cut iron like clay. Although

It has a history of thousands of years, but this sword can still make people feel cold when it is unsheathed." After a pause, Zhou Kangming asked Ouyang: "Brother Ou, the gun you are talking about is the same one you gave to the fifth prince.

Is the gun the same?" After he returned from the hunting ground, Zhou Kangming immediately told his father the entire hunting process, focusing on Ouyang's gun, especially the gun that Ouyang gave to the fifth prince Xia Tian.

Shuo's sniper rifle.

Zhou Kangming's father, Zhou Yongnian, the minister of bodyguards at the time, was a military general himself, so he naturally knew the military well. But when he heard the name of the sniper rifle from his son, his mind was filled with confusion.

I'm confused. There are so many types of guns, such as double-hook guns, single-hook guns, awl guns, grapple guns, ring guns, plain wood guns, and crutch guns. There are so many that I can't even count them. But this "sniper rifle",

Zhou Yongnian had no idea. He had never even heard of it. Especially when he heard his son say that this gun could perform long-range attacks like a magician, his first reaction was that his son was lying.

However, looking at his son's mature face, Zhou Yongnian knew very clearly that his son would not tell lies to him. But what gun can carry out long-range attacks on the enemy like a magician? He really

I can't think of it.

It can be said that why is the status of magicians so much higher than other professions? One of the most important reasons is that magicians can attack enemies from very far away. But most other professions cannot. If I

This "sniper rifle" that my son mentioned really exists, and it can be a big weapon for magicians.

Therefore, Zhou Kangming liked this gun very much, which even his father was interested in, but with his personality, he was embarrassed to ask Ouyang for one to "research"!

"It's almost the same, but the function is different. The gun I gave to the Fifth Prince is used to eliminate a single target, but the current gun is the opposite. It is a group attack weapon. For example, if there are dozens of enemies in front

, using a sniper rifle can only eliminate one of the biggest ones; but my gun can sweep a large area and eliminate all those dozens of enemies at once." Ouyang explained.

Ouyang said it was simple, but in the ears of Zhou Kangming, Shangguan Keshuang and Tang Yin, it was completely different. It was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. It swept away a large area. What kind of thing is this?

Concept. Especially Zhou Kangming, who aspired to be a general, the first thing he thought of at this time was what would happen if an army armed with weapons like "guns" entered the battlefield.

Shangguan Keshuang and Tang Yin were also so shocked that they could stuff two eggs with their mouths open. Although they had not seen the power of the gun with their own eyes, they still learned from their men that the gun equipped by Ouyang's men was like this.

They had a rough idea of ​​the weapon's immense power, so their shock was understandable.

…

As they talked, the four of them finally followed the crowd and arrived at their destination, a grand hall. During this journey, Ouyang had already understood some things like Shangguan Keshuang and the others. The first was that

When he came to this main hall, he carried the gift he gave to Xia Houyuan and gave it to him to "read".

Then the main event will begin in the Royal Flower Garden, which is the palace banquet.

In this hall, Ouyang once again became the focus of everyone. When he met the emperor, according to the system, in addition to the emperor's father and mother, they were also the legendary "Emperor" or "Empress Dowager" or "Taiwan".

Except for the "Empress Dowager" who is such an outstanding person, she does not have to bow to the emperor. Everyone else, including princes, princes, civil and military ministers, and ordinary people, must kneel down and worship the emperor when they see him.

No, when all the civil and military officials and the wealthy people in the main hall knelt down and shouted long live to the lofty Xiahou Yuan Mountain, Ouyang was the only one standing like a proud white crane among the chickens.

He just stood on the main hall and looked at the supreme ruler of the Chinese Empire carefully.

Seeing that Ouyang made this low-level "mistake" again, Shangguan Keshuang, Zhou Kangming and Tang Yin couldn't help but gasped, and at the same time they secretly broke into a cold sweat for Ouyang. After the emperor

If you don't kneel down, it's already disrespectful. If you still stare at the emperor's face, it's simply offensive to Tian Yan. At this time, if the emperor gets angry and directly pushes you out and beheads you, then you

I can only admit that I am unlucky.

However, when everyone was surprised, Xia Houyuan was not furious when he saw Ouyang's "disrespectful" behavior. He was not even slightly unhappy. On the contrary, he was still a little excited.

Ouyang was naturally confused when he saw Xia Houyuan's excited look, "Isn't it just that I borrowed your son's hand to give you a gun? Is it necessary to be so excited? I have never seen the world and make a fuss out of a molehill."

!" Although Ouyang thought so in his heart, he still felt a little surprised, because his huge spiritual consciousness felt that when Xia Houyuan saw Ouyang, in addition to being excited, he also showed a little respect for him.

, is respect.

Even if the gun he gave him had far-reaching significance for his empire, there was no need to respect him so much. Ouyang couldn't help but be a little doubtful, thinking about his own thoughts and couldn't help but invade the emperor's mind.

Ouyang immediately understood this detection.

"So that's what happened!" Ouyang secretly thought!

.
