"Welcome Marquis to Shu!"
Lu Renyi, who had just succeeded his elder brother, was the first to salute.
The officials behind him, a dense group including the State Prefect and the Southern Pacifying General, also bowed in salutation.
"Welcome Marquis to Shu!"
"Welcome Marquis to Shu!"
"Welcome Marquis to Shu!"
"You may all dispense with formalities."
Chen Yuan, dressed in his marquisate official robes, walked on air, moved by divine thought, enveloped by the heaven and earth primordial energy that supported everyone, and step by step descended from the void, wearing a slight smile.
The Marquis, with a fief of ten thousand households, indeed commanded respect and prestige.
"Thank you, Marquis."
"Thank you, Marquis!"
"Thank you, Marquis!"
