Chapter 831 Entering the city!
Xiangdong and Xiangxi were standing beside them, not saying anything, but they also looked unhappy.
The Third Princess was the calmest at the scene. She whispered, "I'm not wronged, General Yuan, please don't be angry. Perhaps it's because the etiquette of the Great Rong Kingdom is too complicated, and it takes a long time to prepare... My Lady Princess, I'm not in a hurry. I don't know the customs and habits of the Great Rong Kingdom. Perhaps things have always been this slow."
Since the princess herself said so, everyone could only suppress their anger.
It seems that the princess likes this marriage very much and her marriage cannot be ruined.
Since the Darong Kingdom was not polite, Jiang Lianzhu naturally wasn't polite either. She had already used her consciousness to probe into the city to check the situation.
The city is bustling with activity and activity.
In terms of clothing, it is slightly different from that of the Da'an Kingdom. Ordinary people wear coarse cloth clothes, but wizards all wear white robes and white scarves on their heads, which should mean that they are superior.
The consciousness can only explore a short distance. When it is night and the moon rises, Ge Cheng will have no place to hide from her!
Just then, Jiang Lianzhu saw a group of people walking quickly towards the city gate.
A slight smile played on her lips.
Here it comes.
"Get ready, we're going into the city."
General Yuan was stunned. "Ah? No one is here to take over. How are we going to get in?"
"Listen to me and get ready!"
"Okay." Seeing Jiang Lianzhu's firm words, General Yuan didn't ask any more questions.
After receiving the order, he told the soldiers who were cooking to stop cooking, pack up their things and prepare to enter the city.
…
Soon, there was a commotion at the city gate.
Jiang Lianzhu heard an argument from afar. It seemed that the city guards were unwilling to open the gate, saying that they had not received any order to welcome the envoys from the Da'an Kingdom into the city. Then, someone took out relevant documents and some regulations set by the two countries for their relations to force them to open the gate.
After some dispute, the general defending the city ordered the city gate to be opened.
The diplomats stationed in Ge City, dressed in the uniforms of the Da'an Kingdom, held flags and brought personnel out of the city to welcome Jiang Lianzhu and others.
"Princess Fu'an, Third Princess! I am an official of the diplomatic mission of the Kingdom of Da'an to the Kingdom of Darong. My name is Lu... I have come specially to greet the Princess and Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
A middle-aged man wearing the uniform of a third-rank official of the Da'an Kingdom came up to Jiang Lianzhu and the others and bowed deeply.
"No need to be so polite." Jiang Lianzhu raised her hand and a force lifted the man up.
Next to the official stood a young man who looked like an adjutant. He had ordinary features and a cold expression, neither humble nor arrogant.
Jiang Lianzhu recognized who it was at a glance!
She couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth and smile knowingly.
"Envoy Lu, what's going on with the Darong Kingdom? Why aren't they letting us into the city?"
The middle-aged man's face was filled with apologies. "In reply to the princess, our embassy has gone to negotiate. Rumor has it that the approval process is complicated and they can't approve it for a while. So I will go ahead and welcome the princess and the others into the city. You can rest in the Da'an Embassy. Our diplomatic mission will continue to investigate and condemn such neglect later..."
General Yuan Meng looked solemn and asked, "Can we enter the city?"
After all, they are just an embassy, and this is on the territory of the Darong Kingdom. How can they succeed with such force?
At this time, the cold-faced adjutant next to the envoy spoke up, "Yes, according to the peace treaty between the two countries, our Da'an embassy has the right to arrange for our compatriots to be stationed in Darong. Moreover, the wedding procession is legitimately coming to Darong to celebrate a long-lasting event that will benefit the friendship between the two countries. Darong was rude and delayed the wedding procession from entering the city. Our Da'an embassy has the right to welcome them ourselves and retains the right to pursue any responsibility."
General Yuan Meng cursed the Darong Kingdom as son of a bitch.
"Okay, let's go into the city!"
Most soldiers are rough men.
A huge wedding procession of a thousand people entered the city of Ge.
As they entered the city gate, the city guard tried to stop them again, "We agreed to only welcome the princess into the city for her wedding. Why are you bringing such a large group of people?"
The envoy's adjutant silently glanced at the city guard official, who then looked at him with a complicated expression. Finally, without saying anything, he waved his hand and asked the entire wedding procession to enter the city.
Jiang Lianzhu saw all of this.
The adjutant must have used some secret method on the city guard official to make him change his mind temporarily.
After entering the city, the people of Darong Kingdom came to watch the marriage team from Da'an Kingdom, and the scene was very lively.
At the beginning, everyone was a little bit resistant, thinking that those who were not of the same race must have different hearts, and they were not very enthusiastic.
"Such a grand ceremony, why are so many foreign soldiers entering our city of Ge?"
"It seems to be the princess of Da'an Kingdom who is marrying..."
"Will they suddenly attack and kill people?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Anyway, we have to be careful with outsiders. They are all fully armed..."
…
At this moment,
Suddenly, several people dressed as locals came out of the crowd, holding flowers and white handkerchiefs in their hands. They expressed their warm welcome to the marriage team from Da'an Kingdom in the local language of Darong Kingdom.
She also shouted in the dialect of the Darong Kingdom, "Everyone welcome the princess of the Da'an Kingdom! She has come all the way to Darong to marry us. This is a great expression of the friendship between our two countries. This bond is stronger than gold. It is a rare and joyous occasion!"
"Yes, Da'an Kingdom now has a young emperor, and the country is prosperous. They are willing to let the princess marry. This shows that their friendship with our Darong Kingdom is eternal and unchanging. We should all welcome them!"
"Look at how majestic and powerful the Da'an soldiers are protecting the princess. This demonstrates the strength of the Da'an Kingdom! The Da'an Kingdom has always been a country of etiquette and would not attack or injure anyone without reason. There is no need to be afraid!"
…
As a result, the less enthusiastic people were stirred up and gradually became enthusiastic, lining the streets to welcome them. Some of them were so good at handling things that they took out suona and trumpets to play, and escorted them all the way to the outside of the post station of Da'an State.
Jiang Lianzhu knew without hesitation that these extras were invited by their Da'an embassy delegation.
It is indeed necessary.
They can incite the masses, guide the masses, and control public opinion, which is also beneficial to them. In the future, if the third princess really wants to marry into the Darong Kingdom, she must also create a reputation for herself.
When they arrived at the embassy of Da'an Kingdom, they found that a large and clean room had already been cleaned up for the third princess.
A group of thousands of soldiers were settled, and the rest took turns standing guard outside the yard.
In the evening, the Da'an Kingdom Embassy was brightly lit to welcome the marriage team.
The banquet was held in the front hall, and a troupe from the Darong Kingdom was invited to perform different songs and dances.
While things were getting lively here, the news had already spread back to the Darong Kingdom’s palace.
The queen and King Darong were having dinner when they learned the news.
The Queen was still a little unconvinced, "Who let them in?! The Ministry of Rites hasn't even finished going through the procedures..."
