Chapter 18 It’s only been half a month, how come you are going to become the imperial concubine? Gana, who was in Luoyang, was stunned for a while after hearing what Dukao said! It’s not that he cares about the monkey’s life or death, but he is surprised that Dukao actually chose to use the God-killing Axe! Fortunately, there were no serious consequences in the end, otherwise the Earth would have been split into pieces like the Fiery Sun Star... Then she really didn’t know how to continue facing Liu Xie! "You should also prepare in Luoyang. I will go there to meet the Han emperor soon." Dukao continued to give instructions to Gana. If it weren't for the monkey incident, he would have been in Luoyang by now, preparing to establish the Shenhe Academy in the Han Dynasty! But since he was delayed, he was no longer in a hurry and continued to leave the negotiation with the Han Emperor to Gana. After instructing Gana, Dukao selected and left some Denor warriors to guard the warship in the East China Sea, and ordered them to continue searching for the monkey who was now unknown whether he was alive or dead. Anyway, he would not feel at ease unless he saw the body even if he died. Then, he led Yuqin and the entire elite class of the Denor survivors and officially set off for Luoyang. The next day, they arrived in Luoyang.
Although the Han Dynasty's industry was just starting at that time, transportation was not very developed and travel basically relied on animal-powered vehicles. It was impossible to get from Yangzhou to Luoyang in one night. But for the remnants of Denor, if they wanted, they could even take a space worm bridge to arrive instantly. It took overnight, but they were still flying too slowly with the aircraft. After all, in order to avoid causing large-scale panic among civilians in the Han territory, they had to fly at high altitudes to completely conceal the traces of the aircraft. Naturally, the takeoff and landing time takes up most of the time. Gana, who received the news that Dukao was about to arrive in Luoyang, immediately informed the Han officials of the news. Yuan Shao, the Grand Marshal who had long been ordered to be fully responsible for this matter, immediately went out of the city on behalf of Liu Xie and the Han Dynasty to welcome Dukao and others. "This is General Dukao, right?" Yuan Shao looked at the group of people in strange costumes in front of him and did not recognize the wrong person. He quickly locked his eyes on Dukao himself. Even if Dukao was not standing in the forefront, Yuan Benchu still had the ability to judge people. Upon hearing this, Dukao first took a look at Yuan Shao, and immediately realized that Yuan Shao might be a high-ranking official of the Han Dynasty, so he politely replied in the etiquette of the Deno civilization: "Hello, I am Dukao." "Uh... hello... hello..." Seeing this, Yuan Shao had no choice but to say hello twice awkwardly and bowed to Dukao. Afterwards, the two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while. Although Yuan Shao still felt very awkward during the process of getting along, he appeared to be calm and composed. After all, as early as half a month ago, he had done enough homework and knew what kind of person he would be receiving today. These are not just foreign envoys, they are from outer space... According to what Liu Xie told him, they are envoys from other civilizations. Therefore, now even if he sees strange behaviors and performances from the other party, he can turn a blind eye to them. After chatting for a while, Yuan Shao ordered his men to arrange a group of the remaining Denor people to take them to the residences prepared for them in advance.
Dukao himself followed Yuan Shao all the way into the palace to meet Liu Xie first. Liu Xie had already made preparations to meet Dukao in the palace, and Gana was always by his side. "Greetings to His Majesty the Emperor of Han." Seeing Liu Xie, Dukao put on a very polite show and continued to greet Liu Xie with the unique etiquette of the Deno civilization. "Hahaha, General Dukao, there's no need to be so polite. I've been looking forward to seeing you all day, and finally you're here." Dukao was very pretentious, and Liu Xie was naturally good at acting as well. He walked up to Dukao with a hearty laugh, then took Dukao's wrist and walked straight to the banquet that had been set up. Liu Xie's enthusiasm made Dukao a little confused in an instant. Before coming here, based on the information he had read before, he actually thought that Liu Huihui was an arrogant, conceited, and overbearing monarch! After all, this is in line with the character of a monarch of a feudal country. Even if the monarch of this feudal country has inherited a space-level civilization. Therefore, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he behaved in such a humble manner when he just met Liu Xie. But what he never expected was that the monarch of this feudal country was so approachable? While Dukao was still in a daze, Liu Xie had already dragged him to the banquet venue. "General Dukao, please take a seat. You have come from afar, so let me give you a good welcome." Liu Xie didn't let go until he had pulled Dukao to his seat at the banquet. "Gana, you sit down too." After settling Dukao, Liu Xie did not forget to greet Gana, who had entered the palace early in the morning and had been waiting with him in the palace. When Dukao heard Liu Xie calling Gana's name, he noticed that Gana was there too. In an instant, his pupils trembled again as if an earthquake; Why are you also in someone else's palace? It's only been half a month, how come you're going to become the imperial concubine? No wonder he would think too much. After all, logically speaking, he is the leader of the remnants of Denor. Before he came to Luoyang, as the representative envoy of the remnants of Denor, it didn't matter to Gana how she contacted Liu Xie. However, now that he has come, Gana should go back with Yuqin and other Denor survivors to wait for the final outcome of his contact with Liu Xie. What the hell is that now? Not only does Gana seem to have forgotten this, but she is now at Liu Xie's home waiting for him with him, just like a hostess? Dukao was extremely shocked! He knew very well what kind of person Gana was. But such a woman who has been devoted to scientific research for nearly ten thousand years, just like this... just like this... ah? He couldn't figure it out. "Come, General Dukao, I salute you." Liu Xie had no idea what Dukao was thinking at the moment, so after pulling him to sit down, he wanted to pour wine for him himself. However, at this time, Gana took the wine jug from his hand and said, "Your Majesty, let me do it."
Taking the wine jug from Liu Xie's hand, Gana immediately filled the wine jars in front of the two of them. She had been entertained by Liu Xie every day in Luoyang for nearly half a month. Influenced by what she saw and heard, she naturally learned the waiter's usual movements and postures of pouring wine. "Your Majesty, General, please drink this cup to the full." After pouring the wine, Gana did not forget to add one more sentence. With this action, she was more like a concubine who was trying to win over meritorious generals for the king, and thus showed up in public to pour wine for them to show her favor. Good guy! This time, not only Dukao was shocked! Even Liu Xie himself was a little surprised! Where did you learn this? But in fact, Gana herself didn't think so much. After these days, she just felt that Liu Xie was a very nice person. Then he thought that maybe he could play a good role as a bridge between the Han and Denor. This will prevent Liu Xie and Dukao from having no room for easing tensions after a possible breakdown in talks, let alone a situation where the conflict gets out of hand. (End of this chapter)
