Chapter 3 Returning Home, Grand Ceremony
Shen Gongao, the lord of Zhenhai City, has reached the peak of his life.
He is almost the peak powerhouse within a thousand miles, and he has never been defeated in more than ten years.
The entire Zhenhai City, as well as dozens of affiliated islands, are his territory.
He guarded the border for the empire and fought against the army of the Kingdom of Dali. He won many battles and captured more than a dozen cities.
Whether it was personal fighting or on the battlefield, he had never lost in ten years.
Now his family's territory has reached 13,000 square kilometers, most of which he personally snatched from the Kingdom of Dali.
More than a decade ago, his fiefdom was only one-tenth.
He has a powerful navy and a powerful mountain army.
His ten years of achievements have exceeded the accumulation of hundreds of years of his ancestors.
He killed countless people, and within a thousand miles, children stopped crying, and he was called a bloody butcher.
In the past ten years, he has been a rising star in the empire.
He has territory, army, and industry.
But...
His son Shen Wuque has been missing for eight years.
This matter has become an untouchable topic in the Shen family.
……………………………………
Zhenhai City!
This is one of the southernmost cities in the entire Daxia Empire, and it is also one of the important military towns in the south of the entire empire.
This city once belonged to the Ying family.
Zhenhai in the south and Yingzhou in the north were once the two most important cities of the Ying family, with Yingzhou as the main city and Zhenhai as the auxiliary city.
For hundreds of years, Zhenhai City has been a major maritime trade city, with mountains of gold and silver flowing.
Now Zhenhai City belongs to Shen Gongao, and there are tens of thousands of square kilometers of territory attached, all of which belong to the Shen family.
When Ying Que came to the gate of Zhenhai City again, he felt familiar and strange.
His own memory and Shen Wuque's memory collided together, forming a very strange feeling.
When he was young, Ying Que liked Zhenhai more than Yingzhou.
Because Yingzhou was too serious, Zhenhai was prosperous and lively, and all kinds of foreigners could be seen here. I remember that the Lord of Zhenhai City was Ying Que's uncle, Ying Qu. He was a very interesting person who doted on Ying Que very much. It seemed that he had endless gifts behind him, and he would surprise Ying Que every time.
Then, the memory of Shen Wuque emerged in his mind.
The memory of this city was not good, or even very bad.
The disappointed look of his father Shen Gongao and the determination of his dream lover turning away appeared in his mind from time to time.
He shook his head, threw away the memory of his own Ying Que, and let the memory of Shen Wuque occupy his mind.
From now on, I am Shen Wuque!
Only when I kill all my enemies, take back the family's territory, and restore the glory of the Ying family, I will be qualified to restore the name of Ying Que.
………………………………
It's a bit strange!
Zhenhai City has always been very lively, why is it so quiet at this time, and the soldiers on the top of the city seem so meticulous?
"Either you come in or leave, don't delay the ceremony." Suddenly, a shout came from the top of the city.
Grand ceremony?
What big day is today?
Wuque hurried into the city gate and immediately saw the grand scene.
The entire Zhenhai City was cleaned spotlessly, and the dense crowds on both sides of the street stood in neat rows.
The houses on both sides of the street were hung with lanterns and covered with red paper.
Inside the city gate, countless official sedan chairs were arranged neatly.
There were also hundreds of civil and military officials standing behind the official sedan chairs. Are they going to welcome someone?
"Hurry up, get into the crowd." Several warriors came in and dragged Wuque into the crowd casually.
"Watch the ceremony quietly, kneel down if you are asked to, shout loudly if you are asked to, and be quiet if you are asked to be quiet." After giving the order, the official left.
A moment later!
There was a sound of horse hooves, and the knight was carrying a flag with a big word "Shen" on it.
"Lord Shen Gongao, the Grand Commander of the Southern Expedition, is already ten miles away!"
Soon, a high-ranking official in a purple robe walked out of the official sedan chair and said, "Everyone, follow me out of the city to welcome the Grand Commander."
More than a dozen senior officials got off the sedan chair and led hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city gate.
After waiting for another two hours.
The entire ground began to tremble, getting louder and louder.
This was the sound of countless war horses hitting the ground. This was a powerful cavalry, countless in number.
"The Grand Commander of the Southern Expedition, Shen Gongao, the Earl of Zhenhai, is here!"
"The triumphal ceremony officially begins!"
"Play music!"
Soon, a magnificent music sounded. This was a large band of more than a few hundred people.
A majestic and domineering carriage, dragged by six divine war horses, slowly came.
Shen Gongao pushed open the door of the carriage and walked out slowly.
This carriage was huge, and he stood on it like a jade pillar supporting the sky.
Hundreds of officials bowed and said, "Congratulations to the Grand Commander for his triumphant return."
Then, an eunuch stepped out, followed by dozens of junior eunuchs.
"Your Majesty has issued an order!"
All officials, tens of thousands of soldiers, and tens of thousands of civilians knelt down in unison.
"Grand Commander Shen Gongao is wearing armor, so there is no need to kneel down to receive him." The eunuch shouted.
Shen Gongao stepped down from the carriage and knelt down like a jade pillar.
Several eunuchs stepped forward to stop him from kneeling, but they were completely unable to stop him.
Shen Gongao half-knelt.
All officials present knelt down, including the Governor-General, except Shen Gongao who half-knelt.
"According to the imperial edict of the Emperor of Heaven, Shen Gongao, the commander-in-chief of the southern expedition, has made outstanding achievements in the southern expedition. He has captured more than ten cities and expanded hundreds of miles of territory. He is a model for the generals of the empire. He canonize him as the Marquis of Zhenhai. He is hereditary and hereditary. I hereby express it. !”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!"
Suddenly, there were countless envious looks.
Shen Gong Ao was directly granted the title of Marquis!
You must know that apart from the founding of the country, in the next few hundred years, the title of marquis has reached its peak. Unless you make immortal contributions, it is impossible to become a marquis.
Several eunuchs came forward and immediately put Shen Gong Ao into a marquis python robe.
And presented a brand new Zhenhaihou seal.
After completing all this, the Governor of Tianshui Province stepped forward and bowed: "Brother Shen Gong, you have worked hard all the way. This battle is really a rare victory for our country in decades."
Shen Gongao: "Thank you very much."
Governor Fu Jianzhi said: "Marquis Zhenhai, please mount your horse, and I will hold the reins for you."
Shen Gongao: "I dare not."
Governor Fu Jianzhi said: "Dare, dare, dare!"
Shen Gong Ao did not delay, and directly boarded the carriage. Governor Fu Jianzhi really got into the driving seat of the carriage, picked up the reins, and drove Shen Gong Ao into the city!
Immediately, the music was played and changed to "The Mighty Song of Heaven's Grace".
Hundreds of civil and military officials ran behind the carriage.
Thousands of cavalrymen controlled the horses and escorted Shen Gong Ao into the city with neat steps.
So majestic, so brilliant, so glorious!
It is truly the pinnacle of life.
This is what a man should do.
Wherever Shen Gong Ao's chariot passed, people on both sides of the road knelt down one after another.
"Long live my emperor, long live my emperor!"
"The Marquis of Zhenhai is mighty, the Marquis of Zhenhai is mighty!"
The sound resounded throughout the sky!
Half of this was organized, and the other half was out of awe.
In recent years, Shen Gongao's name has definitely become famous, even making people fearful.
Countless people knelt on both sides and looked up at Shen Gong Ao, majestic and covered in sunshine, like the God of War.
Everyone is kneeling, except one person!
That is Shen Wuque!
The fact that he was not kneeling seemed particularly awkward, yet he was so handsome and graceful.
When several officials saw this, they got angry and knelt forward to bend Shen Wuque's knees.
Shen Gongao turned his head and saw Shen Wuque. He couldn't help being shocked, and even the muscles at the corners of his mouth trembled slightly.
This...this is perfect.
Is this his son Shen Wuque, who has been missing for eight years?
He...he's back?
Not only Shen Gongao, but also the governor Fu Jianzhi who was driving also noticed it. His eyes narrowed slightly and soon returned to normal.
The gorgeous chariot quickly passed by Shen Wuque's eyes.
But Shen Gongao's eyes remained on Wu Que's face for about five seconds, and then he turned away and stopped looking at him.
But Shen Gong Ao's gaze was enough to make all the officials dare not move Wu Que.
Shen Gong Ao's chariot will pass through the entire Zhenhai City and enter Haiya Fort, which is the brand new Zhenhai Marquis Mansion.
The real triumphal ceremony has just begun.
This is the highlight moment for the entire Shen family.
