Chapter 55 Rewards
The banquet was held in the grand hall on the front side of the palace, and those who were invited to such a place are now all red people in the eyes of King Laisent of the Western Kingdom, most of whom are some heroes of the kingdom who have returned triumphantly from battle.
The entire hall presents a bright golden color, giving people a sense of grandeur and majesty. The four corners of the hall have four giant dragon pillars to support the dome of the hall, and at the top of the hall is a row of exquisite crystal chandeliers. Under the magic of magical crystal lamps, the whole hall is shining brightly.
Countless princes and nobles are pouring in from the front gate of the grand hall, at the end of the grand hall, a high dragon chair overlooks the entire hall, giving people an inexplicable sense of majesty.
Those who can come here are all the dignitaries of the Western Kingdom. To prevent national panic, Laisent has sealed off the news that the divine plant was cursed by a demon very tightly, and it has not been leaked out. Only some important figures in the kingdom have received the news. However, such a big thing cannot be blocked at all. Therefore, basically, all dignitaries with heads and faces in the imperial city know this news. It is also said that this banquet was held by His Majesty Laisent because the demon's curse on the divine plant has been treated.
"Hehe, Master Huayun, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Just as Huayun and Saha had just entered the grand hall, a familiar voice sounded in Huayun's ear.
"It's actually Young Master Lokyun, haha, we really do have a connection!" Hua Yun turned her head to look and found that it was indeed Lokyun, and beside him, Areluya was also standing there with a smile.
"Master Hua Yun, today is your grand feast, be sure to enjoy it well!" Lokuen said with a smile, he naturally knew that the devil's curse was cured by Hua Yun. Originally, Lokuen had planned to go find Hua Yun on the first day of his arrival in Wang City, but after hearing that Hua Yun was busy treating the divine sprout and stayed in the Plant Master Hall all day, he didn't come immediately.
For Lokoun, Huayun still felt quite at ease. After saying goodbye to Saha and Areluya, they went to greet their old friends in the grand hall, while Huayun didn't know anyone here either, so she sat with Lokoun in a corner, chatting.
After a long time, Lokuen told Huayun about how he was scolded to death by Duke Reo after returning that day and was locked up for a period of time, which made Lokuen extremely painful. Huayun also told Lokuen about his experiences in Wulan City, listening to which Lokuen became very indignant and repeatedly said that Huayun's teachings were correct.
"Your Majesty has arrived!" Just as Huayun was letting Lokuren arrange a good place for Kaselot, the guard standing in the great hall shouted loudly. The originally somewhat noisy great hall immediately fell silent, as if there were no one in the entire hall at all, making Huayun secretly gasp in amazement. This king's prestige was indeed formidable.
"Welcome Your Majesty!" As soon as Laisent emerged from behind the grand hall, the crowd in the hall seemed to be led by someone and responded in unison.
"Haha, no need for formalities, please sit down at ease. Today is a joyous day, so let's not be too reserved. You're all not here for the first time, after all!" Laisen's face was full of smiles, and everyone in the grand hall could tell that he was in an exceptionally good mood.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Everyone finished paying their respects and found a seat on either side of the long dining table in the grand hall.
"Gentlemen!" After seeing everyone sit down, Laisent looked at Huayun in the crowd and smiled: "The other day, the divine plants in our Western Kingdom's Plant Master Hall were suddenly cursed by demons. Many of the divine plants are on the verge of death. The master Rudolf and all the masters in the kingdom's Plant Master Hall tried their best to save them, but to no avail. Fortunately, Master Sahar invited Master Huayun to our kingdom, and together with the masters from the Plant Master Hall, they were able to exorcise the demon's curse from the hall."
Here is the translation:
"Up to here, Laisent looked at Huayun in the crowd again, stood up and said: "Master Huayun, I, Laisent, as the King of Xisi Kingdom, would like to express my gratitude for Master Huayun's contributions to Xisi Kingdom!"
Seeing Laisent make such a move, the people in the great hall suddenly had a hint of movement. To be called a master by Your Majesty, at least in the Western Kingdom, he must be a top-notch person. And to make Your Majesty so concerned, that person's attainments as a cultivator must be extraordinary. When did the Sixth University produce such a top-notch figure again!
The crowd of Chinese people hastily stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Master Saha is a friend of mine, and he can serve the kingdom. I am deeply honored in my heart!"
"Hehe, if Master Huayun doesn't mind, I, the King of Xisi Kingdom, will grant you a first-class earl title! A reward of 100,000 gold coins, and the honorary position of Royal Court Gardener. I hope Master Huayun can accept!"
"Hmm!" After listening to Laiscent's words, the various ministers in the grand hall immediately began whispering among themselves. Not to mention the title of First-Class Earl and the reward of 100,000 gold coins, these things could be obtained as long as one achieved great merit. But this title of Royal Court Master Gardener was truly worth savoring. This meant that Hua Yun was merely holding a nominal position in the Western Ice Kingdom, and not actually serving as the kingdom's dedicated gardener. If Hua Yun were willing, he could leave the Western Ice Kingdom at any time.
Allen Dai 6, no matter which country, at the time of the current master, will make efforts to retain, but some masters, many countries have a tacit understanding and do not force retention. Those masters, regardless of which one, are Allen Dai 6's top-notch masters.
Just like Allen Dai's 6th powerful Planter, Saint Devil Planter Bisfam Master, in the four great empires, they are all honorary Planters of the imperial court. Such people are not that the four great empires do not want to retain them, but rather the four great empires know that such figures are impossible for any one empire to retain.
What exactly is this young man capable of, to make His Excellency Laisent make such a decision? Looking at the youthful Hua Yun in front of him, almost all the ministers below couldn't help but ponder in their hearts, filled with curiosity. However, there were also a few people who knew the inside story and didn't feel much surprise.
"Thank you for your gift!" Hua Yun also did not decline, slightly bowed and gladly accepted.
Hua Yun is a person who doesn't have any ambition, his only passion is the study of plants and so on. However, he also knows that in this world where strength is respected, if he wants to do research with peace of mind, he must have a convenient identity. Otherwise, it would be like when he was in Wala City, where everyone could bully him, and Hua Yun would have to spend every day dealing with others, leaving no time for his research.
Upon hearing that Huayun had accepted his reward, Laisent's face broke into a smile: "Since Master Huayun has accepted the title of Earl of Western Kingdom, I shall grant you the former residence of the Marquis of Bili Mountain on the West Wing Road of the Imperial City!"
"Grant me a mansion?" Huayun, who had been living in the palace of Saha all along, was worried about having nowhere to live. When he heard that Laisent had granted him a mansion, he immediately exclaimed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Wow!" Even those who were previously unimpressed and knew the inside story of Hua Yun couldn't help but look at him with surprise and admiration.
Isn't it just a mansion? Is it worth it? Hearing the loud whispers around her, looking at those people staring at her with envy, Huayun couldn't help but feel some inexplicable confusion.
