Chapter 414 Lunch
"Ah! Get up." Alice's little body tensed up and she stretched out on the soft big bed: "Hey? Where's the master? Master..."
"What are you doing? ?" Bing Zhixie returned to the house from the balcony: "You're awake."
Seeing that Master was not missing, Alice smiled happily: "Good morning, Master."
"It's still early, it's already afternoon." Bing Zhixie said.
"Ah, is it afternoon?" Alice rubbed her forehead and saw the bright sunshine outside and said, "I really overslept. I slept so comfortably last night. I have never slept so comfortably before."
Bingzhixie said: "That's because the bed Green grass petals are spread below. These green petals are newly picked and spread under the bed, which will not only help relieve fatigue, but also make you sleep more soundly. ”
Love. Liz opened the mattress and took a look, and sure enough she saw it was made The room is full of green petals, and there is a astringent fragrance: "I always use musky to sleep in the palace. This kind of petals is more comfortable to sleep than musky."
" Get up and eat quickly," Bing Zhixie said, "Kai before. The maid Sarang came and saw that you were sleeping and didn't dare to wake you up. Now he is still waiting for you to have dinner."
Alice got up in a hurry to wash up and asked the maid to bring it. Wearing new clothes, Bing Zhixie and Bing Zhixie came to the dining room of Caesar's Mansion.
After the delicious food was served on gold plates and silver forks, Caesar smiled and said: "Your Highness, the princess, slept comfortably last night."
"Well, it was very comfortable. Even the bed in the palace is not as comfortable as the bed here. "Alice said.
Caesar smiled and said: "Your Royal Highness, with all due respect, without your permission, I have invited some officials and gentry nobles from Arant City to attend a dinner. It is a dinner specially prepared for the princess."
"Ah, a banquet?" Alice thought for a while and smiled: "That's good, I haven't attended a banquet for a long time."
Caesar said: "Your Highness the Princess likes it Just fine. You are The princess of the Demon Moon Empire is here to visit. As an official of the Corussia government, I should hold a banquet, and according to the etiquette, members of the royal family of this country should also attend. However, my king is far away from the city of Arant. It's too late now, and I'm afraid it will be too late to send the message to invite the royal family, so I only invited a duke and his wife from this city. They are also members of the royal family of the country. Your Highness the Princess won't mind."
"No, no, no." Alice waved her hands hurriedly and smiled: "When there are members of the royal family of your country attending the banquet, there are always various etiquettes. I prefer banquets that are more casual and free."
< br>"Ho ho ho ho...that would be great."
The Demon Moon Empire and Corussia are neighboring countries, and they have a very good relationship with each other. The princess of the Demon Moon Empire is visiting , there should be a more grand welcome ceremony.
Bingzhixie said: "Master Caesar, you said yesterday that you came back from the subcontinent."
"Yes." Caesar said: "Our government, at the invitation of the Luo Kingdom of the subcontinent, let I went to attend an alchemy academic symposium held by several countries.”
"Then did you hear anything interesting along the way?" Bingzhixie asked: "Princess Alice likes to hear stories like this very much. If you hear anything interesting, she will definitely like it very much."
"Yes, yes." Alice Ma Shang said happily: "I was so sleepy yesterday that I forgot to ask you."
Bing Zhixie also wants to know about the situation in the south for himself. He will leave here soon and go south to know more. Big things happening in the south of the continent are always good.
"This." Caesar thought for a while and said: "I haven't encountered anything interesting, but now the whole continent is talking about two wars."
Alice is happy His expression slowly became serious.
Bingzhixie said: "I know that there will be a battle between the Demon Moon Empire and Saint Bikeya."
"That's right." Caesar glanced at Alice and said, "Your country and Saint Bikeya Corussia is one of the few superpowers in the world. The war between these two countries will certainly become the focus of the world's attention. Corussia is your country's neighbor and ally, and has always been deeply loved by your country. help this time holy Bikoya provoked the war between the two countries for no reason, and the Lucia government will fully support your country's war. Please rest assured about this."
Alice said: "Thank you." Xie asked: "What about another one?"
Caesar said: "The other one is the siege of Yanyang City by the five countries in the Eastern Continent that ended a few months ago."
Bing Zhixie was slightly startled: "Yanyang City?"
"Don't you know?" Caesar asked: "This matter has spread all over the world."
Bing Zhixie shook his head. Since he came down from Da Sheng Snow Mountain and came all the way here, he didn't go to the tavern to ask for news. He originally thought that since he was going to stay here for a while, he would ask here.
Caesar smiled and said: "This matter has now become a legend in the mainland. The five countries in the Eastern Continent, including the Ponte Empire, actually united and determined to seize control of the Yanyang region. , it is said that the regular army alone has nearly one million people, and there are also 500,000 to 600,000 servants invited from various places. Soldiers, even the 'Red Dragon Knights' of the Intercity Alliance and the 'Sun Dancers' of 7S also participated in the war."
"'The Red Dragon Knights' and the 'Sun Dancers'?" Zhixie smiled and said: "With such power to capture Yanyang City, we can indeed win."
Caesar smiled and said: "But in the end, Yanyang City won."
"Oh?" Bing Zhixie said: "It's impossible. Although I don't know the strength of Yanyang City very well, I have done it before. I have heard that the total number of people in their four cities is only 200,000 at most."
Caesar said: "I don't know exactly what happened. There are different opinions among the people. I only know that the 'Sun Dancer' finally withdrew from the war before the war, and it was huge Although the five special countries have a large number of people, the overall quality of their soldiers is quite different from that of Yanyang City's army. More importantly, there are no generals in these five countries, and no truly powerful generals can defeat them in one day. Defeated three Yanyang Guard Cities. The coalition forces never organized any decent battle after the defeat of the Red Dragon Knights."
Bing Zhixie remained silent. He knew that with the power of one person, no matter how strong he was, he could not fight. It is impossible to fight against so many troops. But war is about morale. Once the army loses its fighting spirit, tens of thousands of people may be killed by thousands of people and flee in rout. (There are too many such examples in Chinese history. For example, during the Song Dynasty, the Jin army Wanyan Wushu led 3,000 elite cavalry to kill more than 100,000 soldiers of the Song Dynasty. They abandoned their helmets and armor, and it was as if there was no one in the Song Dynasty. In such a situation, even Emperor Song Gaozong and Zhao Gou fled to the sea to take refuge. Of course, General Yue Fei later led thousands of vanguard troops to kill them all. Yan Wushu's army of hundreds of thousands wanted to abandon the city and flee. This is the morale of the Jin army. But when they heard that Yue Fei's army was coming, they were so frightened that they called Grandpa Yue and lost before they even fought. )
Caesar told him in detail what he knew. Alice listened with interest and was fascinated.
After hearing this, Bing Zhixie thought to herself: "I didn't expect that during the few months I stayed on the Holy Snow Mountain, such a big thing happened to Yang Yan. Even Gao Feng went to help. It's really strange." Since last time After sharing their identities in the Demon Moon Imperial Capital, they had a general understanding of each other's situation.
After hearing this, Alice was angry and anxious: "Master, aren't you going to the Eastern Continent? If we don't waste a few months, we might be able to catch up with the battle of Yanyang City. Fortunately, I learned about the war there and helped my father and mother.”
Bing Zhixie didn’t say anything. Alice usually looked happy and cheerful, but she was still worried in her heart. Concerned about the safety of their own country. Seeing Alice's depressed and lonely look, Bing Zhixie had a vague idea of going to the Demon Moon Empire to help immediately, but this idea only flashed in his mind and then dissipated. War is a matter that can be long or short. He only thinks about Long Ling now, and Long Ling now has clues. He doesn't want to get involved in anything else.
Caesar's eyes flashed: "Oh, you are going to the Eastern Continent?"
"Yes." Alice said.
Caesar asked: "Why are you going there at such a long distance?"
Bingzhixie said: "There are some personal things. And Princess Alice wants to travel around the mainland, so it can be considered a trip."
"Oh!" Caesar nodded and said with a smile on his chubby face: "It is very far and dangerous to go to the Eastern Continent from here, but with a master like you by your side, Her Royal Highness the Princess will be safe. "
Alice said: "I also have to work hard to train myself and let my wings mature earlier, so that I don't have to distract Master."
Bing Zhixie said: "Lord Caesar, after lunch later, I want to go to the city to have a look and learn more about what is happening in the outside world during this period. Princess Alice will please take care of you."
"No, I want to go too." Alice immediately took Bing Zhixie's hand and refused to let go.
Caesar smiled and said: "Your Highness the Princess is my distinguished guest, and you are Her Highness's teacher. Wherever you want to go and what you want to do, just do it. Come and try this, Your Highness the Princess. This plate of foie gras is very good. Food..."
