C1067 Banner and Gift

The person with the most noble status in the Ryukyu was naturally the Great Qing Emperor, Ai Xinjueluozaichun. He should be the Ryukyu King, Shang Tai, and then the Prime Minister, Xiao Letian.

However, because Xiao Letian had the status of Imperial Advisor, he was ranked in front of the two of them. When Zai Chun and Shang Tai walked into the Prime Minister's Manor one after the other to receive everyone's greetings, it was a full ten minutes before the ritual officer roared with vigor.

"Prime Minister of the Ryukyu, Wang Shang Fu, Imperial Advisor of the Great Qing Dynasty … Xiao Letian has arrived!

Four Heavenly Kings took the lead and ran to the main entrance to line up to greet them. Wang Huaiyuan, Luo Huo, Xiao Hexin, and the rest of the subjects were gathered at the main entrance to welcome them. This was the glory of being directly related to their subjects.

But the second group were the subjects under the Ryukyu King and the guests watching the ceremony. They stood at the two doors waiting for Xiao Letian's arrival.

Inside the innermost great hall, Zai Chun and Shang Tai stood at the back of the crowd, demonstrating their esteemed position.

Xiao Letian who was dressed in military attire was riding a tall Arabian horse. His entire body was black like silk and there wasn't a single hair on him, there was only four hooves with a white ring on them.

Behind Xiao Letian were 18 formal attire knights, all of them were riding the same black horse, their straight military uniforms didn't have any wrinkles at all, the leather boots, armed belts, and the big lacquered hat were all spotlessly clean, their jaws proudly raised upwards.

Just as Wang Huaiyuan and the rest wanted to take a thousand steps to salute, suddenly, they saw an unbelievable scene. In the hands of the two Palm Flag s behind Xiao Letian, one of them had the word Xiao on it, and the other one was actually the Ryukyu's national treasure, blood flag.

"Hiss …" Everyone on the scene gasped, why did the Prime Minister take this flag out? Isn't that the blood flag that was worshipped in the Temple of War?

blood flag was a legend of the Ryukyu. It was the first time Xiao Letian came to the Ryukyu with over sixty Heaven veterans s, but just these sixty people instigated a rebellion of 100,000 Chinese people.

On this night of blood and fire, they had defeated the ruler of the Shimadzu Family, liberated the Ryukyu Kingdom, and also established Xiao Letian's first foundation.

That night, Winged King Shida Kai personally wrote three big words on the ten white flags: Xiao Letian. It was these ten war flags that incited the hundred thousand Chinese people to fight bravely on them. Blood and smoke filled the flags, and in the end, every flag was dyed red with the blood of the rebels.

The biggest of the three was in Xiao Letian's hands. In that blood battle, the achievements of Xiao Letian's group were the greatest, and they had paid a heavy price. Even Xiao Letian himself had vomited blood because of Xiao Letian's blood, and this flag was also considered an ancestor by the Ryukyu, as it was worshipped within the Temple of War.

What did blood flag represent? To the new army of the Ryukyu, it was a signal of not retreating even in a battle of life or death. Once this flag was raised, the army would no longer receive any orders to retreat or turn their strategy around, and could only advance forward in a battle of life or death.

Either kill the enemy, or be killed by the enemy. There was no other choice.

The eyes of the four great heavenly kings twitched. They truly did not understand why the Prime Minister wanted to fight the blood flag, or why it was the's greatest side. Could it be that the Prime Minister sensed some sort of danger?

All the warriors who had fought beneath the blood flag were standing still, as cold as javelins. The smell of blood and iron pervaded the air, and everyone in Prime Minister's Manor felt that something was wrong.

Shang Tai and Zai Chun subconsciously looked at each other, and both of them swallowed their saliva. They did not know what was going to happen next, but they were all flustered, as though they were holding onto a rabbit.

Xiao Letian jumped down from his horse, and returned the greeting with a smile, while the two standard-bearers stood by the entrance of the Prime Minister's Manor, one on the left and one on the right, like two iron statues.

"Relax!" There's no war for you guys to fight today. This flag is actually for myself … I'm trying to cheer myself on. Don't be so nervous, okay? "

Xiao Letian held onto this person's hand and patted his shoulder. He called out their names one by one, and like a spring breeze, they blew into Prime Minister's Manor.

Xiao Letian, who was surrounded by stars, walked into the main hall and, following the instructions of the cantor, accepted the toasts from Tongzhi the emperor and Shang Tai. Xiao Letian then said a few words of congratulations to the start of the new year.

This was the most important moment for these big guys. Everyone hoped that their gifts would be favored by the Prime Minister.

The sculpted Journey to the West that was sent to him by the Keeper Niu made Xiao Letian exclaim in admiration, and after three cups of wine, the fatty immediately became intoxicated. Hu Xueyan gave a thumbs up when he saw Hu Xueyan's trash. Even Fan Lian, who was standing behind him, sighed and clicked his tongue, thanking Hu Xueyan for saving his life.

Dragon Lord had also returned. The cold wind from the Far East had left several frostbite marks on his face, and after that Ginseng King was brought out, the entire audience was praising him. Xiao Letian said with a pained heart, "In the cold and bitter world, it was even more difficult than me, you can keep this old ginseng! This is an order, no one is allowed to disobey it! "

Dragon Lord's eyes were red as he said, "I'm a martial artist fighting with killing intent, it's okay … "Since the prime minister insisted on bestowing it to me, I will not decline it …"

Dragon Lord turned to Wang Huaiyuan and said, "You're about to turn into a ghost … This ginseng is yours, don't keep it to boil some ginseng soup to replenish your energy! "

With Dragon Lord's sincerity, Wang Huaiyuan took the box happily and turned around to give it to his personal guard, "Put it away well, make me chicken soup tomorrow!"

After the Dragon Lord arrived, the old ginseng head hurriedly said, "Don't! "This is a four hundred year old Ginseng King. Please don't eat too much at once, just a little bit of it would be enough to nourish him …"

The Dragon Lord laughed, "You old dog, you don't need to say any nonsense, why aren't you greeting the Prime Minister … Prime Minister, this ginseng king is offered by the old ginseng head, and he is one of the strongest people in the Far East that supports us! "

old ginseng head fell to his knees, trembling so much that his words became unclear … "Greetings, Prime Minister …"

Xiao Letian nodded his head, and then, the janissaries helped old ginseng head up, "Don't kneel if you're an elder. I heard that in the Far East, you can be said to have ruined your family's support for the Valiant Army! "Well done, although I am not the commander of the militia, but I want to reward you as well. What do you want?"

"I dare not, this old one does not dare to ask for a reward …" General Xiang has brought us here to avenge ourselves, this is a great favor, if we continue to report this, we won't be people anymore, no, I don't want anything … "

"Hahaha …" Don't actually want it. Your strategy of retreating to advance is really good, it's a trap that I'm willing to use! "That's it then. Wait a moment, I'll definitely give you a surprise later!"

Letting go of the confused old ginseng head, Xiao Letian continued to receive gifts from all around. He even accepted the imperial edict sent over by the Beijing.

After being busy for more than two hours, it was finally the time for the main event to take place. Shang Tai walked over quickly while holding a large red lacquer plate that was covered in bright yellow silk and covered with gifts.

"Shang Fu, my lord, I, Little Wang, congratulate Shang Fu!" Opening up the satin, the bright yellow Dual Dragon Jade Rings appeared in front of everyone.
