#1254 - Chapter 1254 Banquet Hall and Arrival
“Mr. Wu Wei, please wait here for a moment.”
“His Majesty the Emperor will be here soon.”
At the very center of the royal palace, at the entrance to a banquet hall used exclusively by the royal family and nobility,
the legion commander of the Abyss Expeditionary Force respectfully said to Wu Wei.
Wu Wei, in turn, nodded with a calm expression.
“Alright, I understand.”
However, just as the legion commander of the Abyss Expeditionary Force was about to leave, Wu Wei suddenly stopped him.
“Wait!”
The legion commander of the Abyss Expeditionary Force turned around and addressed Wu Wei, this esteemed guest.
“Mr. Wu Wei, is there anything else I can help you with?”
Facing this legion commander who was clearly powerful but acting like a servant, Wu Wei opened his mouth.
But in the end, he said nothing, merely waving his hand to signal the other to leave.
The legion commander of the Abyss Expeditionary Force didn't say much either, simply leading the rest of the Abyss Expeditionary Force warriors behind him, slowly leaving the banquet hall that they usually weren't even qualified to enter.
“…”
Not long after the legion commander of the Abyss Expeditionary Force left,
just as Wu Wei was still pondering which chair to sit in because there were so many of them, pairs of maids and servants walked in.
However,
what surprised these servants and maids was that Wu Wei, who just a moment ago was at a loss about where to sit, was now sitting on Emperor Shi Wushuang's seat.
Okay.
This guy's so-called hesitation was complete nonsense.
Because his goal from the start was to consider whether this chair would be comfortable to sit on.
What?
You ask how these guys knew that Wu Wei was sitting on His Majesty the Emperor's seat.
The answer is simple.
Because within the entire banquet hall, His Majesty the Emperor's seat was the most conspicuous one.
No, no, no.
It already had nothing to do with being conspicuous.
Because the seat Wu Wei was sitting on was, among all the chairs, the only one bearing the imperial insignia and made of gold.
Under these circumstances, if you were to say that Wu Wei sat in the wrong place on purpose, that would clearly be nonsense.
“You…”
Just as a maid opened her mouth to remind Wu Wei, she was immediately silenced by the head maid with a look.
The maid instantly shut her mouth and began preparing for the banquet without saying a word.
What a joke!
Regardless of what Wu Wei wanted to do or what he did at this moment,
anyone who could appear in this banquet hall was not someone they, as maids, could speak to.
Oh, right.
The Sixth Prince might be an exception.
Because the head maid still remembered that the twisted guy was the only one who dared to lay hands on them, the sacred maids serving His Majesty the Emperor, in this room.
Moreover, this guy was also the only prince who dared to assault and murder them, these maids, afterwards.
Even the Second Prince Shi Yuan wasn't as insane as him.
Because the Second Prince's madness came from other aspects.
Thus, after recalling unpleasant events, the head maid automatically categorized Wu Wei as a madman.
Moreover, because Wu Wei was able to appear in this banquet hall, his status was elevated by the head maid to the ranks of “noble madman”.
“Hey.”
However, just as the maids and servants were working hard to prepare, Wu Wei, this guy, spoke first.
This damned madman actually smiled and said to these poor, low-ranking palace people,
“Can I ask you something?”
“Is the place I'm sitting now the place where that guy Shi Wushuang usually sits?”
“I shouldn't have sat in the wrong place, right?”
Hearing Wu Wei directly call the Emperor by his name and with such a bad attitude,
the eyelids of every maid and servant around him twitched.
But not a single one dared to respond to Wu Wei in any way.
They simply did what they were supposed to do like robots.
Seeing that they weren't replying to him, Wu Wei's mischievousness rose again.
“Hey, hey, hey, you there.”
“Yes, yes, yes, you, out of so many people, you're the only one who made eye contact with me.”
“Come over and tell me, what does that guy Shi Wushuang usually eat here?”
To be honest, due to his hatred for the empire, Wu Wei also extremely disliked these guys who served the empire's master.
So Wu Wei's malice was undisguised.
But just as Wu Wei was about to start messing around, the door to the banquet hall was pushed open.
“Mr. Wu Wei.”
“I can answer that for them.”
A gray-haired figure arrived.
“The place you're sitting now is where I usually sit.”
“As for what you asked about what I usually eat.”
“Sorry, I haven't really paid much attention…”
“After all, I'm too busy.”
Emperor Shi Wushuang arrived in front of Wu Wei.
