Wang Huili and others were detained in prison. According to Wu Xu's instructions, they should protect themselves, not anger the Romans, and wait patiently for the arrival of their master.

As the saying goes, money can make ghosts push the grind. This sentence works well for Chinese ghosts and is also good for Roman ghosts.

Due to Wu Xu's instructions, they were asked to save the lives of Wang Huili and others at all costs. Therefore, the Tang Dynasty trading company was willing to spend money. After their management, Wang Huili and others were not punished in prison and were also treated very well. The prisoners also liked the generous Tang Dynasty people very much and opened the door to convenience for them.

On that day, Wang Huili and others were in the prison, eating chicken legs and drinking wine, which was quite pleasant. They already knew that the prince would lead the army soon, so they settled down and waited for a long time.

At this time, the door of the prison cell rang, and then a jailer came in and said, "Shopkeeper Wang, the legal officer is going to interrogate you, come with me."

Since Wang Huili was detained, the Tang Dynasty trading company has been giving gifts to the judicial officers, but has never caused any trouble with them. It has just kept them detained and has not dealt with. After seeing Wang Huili, the judicial officer was also very polite. He said: "Shopkeeper Wang, do you think you are wronged? Do you want to appeal?"

Wang Huili was an official of the court. He had seen the world and knew that lawsuits were not easy. When he heard the legal officer's questioning, he couldn't help but wonder. Under normal circumstances, most people would choose to appeal, but now the situation is different. The prince quickly brought the army to fight. If he complained now, it would not only be meaningless, but it might also cause a lot of trouble.

Wang Huili knew very well that if he wanted to continue to sue, he would not only continue to spend money, but also possible offend the tax officials and his group, and he would likely suffer more serious revenge.

Wang Huili asked tentatively: "Sir, if I don't appeal, how will my case be handled?"

The legal officer looked at him curiously and said, "Why don't you want to appeal? You should know that you may be sentenced to three to five years in prison in your case."

When Wang Huili heard this, he felt at ease. As long as he did not behead him, he would be fine for three or five years or fifty years. Anyway, when the prince arrived, the Romans would have to send me away obediently.

So he said, "Sir, that's not a problem! Please take care of this matter more and just make a lighter judgment."

The legal officer didn't find it strange to see Wang Huili like this. He knew too well that ordinary people, especially these businessmen, were unwilling to sue. They would rather lose money and avoid disaster than be entangled in the lawsuit. Otherwise, in many cases, a lawsuit may lead to bankruptcy or even family death.

The judge did not understand Wang Huili's true thoughts. He said kindly: "Don't worry, I will preside over justice for you. I have reported this matter to the executive justice. The justice has reported this matter to His Majesty the Emperor. His Majesty the Emperor decided to come to hear your case personally. Don't be afraid, you will tell the truth at that time."

Wang Huili really didn't want to mess around with this matter anymore, but it was impossible for him to refuse the summoned by the Roman emperor. He thought for a while and said, "Okay, what should I say when I meet the emperor of your country? Please give me some advice."

The legal officer was very happy to see Wang Huili's attitude. He said, "Okay."

Next, he gave Wang Huili some advice, from the etiquette of meeting the emperor to how to appeal to this case, he was very patient.

Wang Huili said gratefully: "Thank you for your advice. Will you go with me tomorrow?"

The legal officer is not qualified to meet the emperor, but he cannot tell Wang Huili. He shook his head and said, "I am responsible for hearing your case, so I can't go anymore. I want to avoid suspicion, so you go by yourself, and someone will pick you up at that time."

The Holy Palace of Constantinople.

The emperor of the Roman Empire was not only the ruler of the country, but also the supreme leader of the church. Therefore, he was also called the Holy Roman Emperor, and the imperial palace was also called the Holy Palace.

The next morning, Wang Huili was taken to the gate of the palace, waiting for Constance II to receive him. In order to show justice, the legal officer also asked Wang Huili to change into the Tang Dynasty clothes he had worn before.

Wang Huili waited at the door for about an hour, and finally the voice of Xuanzhao came from inside. Wang Huili, led by the court celebrating officer, walked into the hall.

Wang Huili walked through several rows of steps and arrived at the door of the hall. Just as he had just walked in, someone suddenly shouted on both sides: "Be respectful, be respectful, be respectful."

The sudden shouts scared Wang Huili, and he was stunned for a moment. It turned out that there were two rows of ceremonial officials standing on both sides of the gate. When someone met the emperor, the ceremonial officials would shout three times in a row, reminding people to pay attention to etiquette. When they saw Wang Hui in a daze, the ceremonial officials who led him in secretly mocked him for not seeing the world before and urged: "Follow me."

After entering the hall, Wang Hui walked inside and looked at the hall curiously. The hall was very wide, but it was far inferior to the Taiji Hall in Chang'an. The top of the hall was round and arched, and there were many embossed murals with bright lines on the walls, some of which made him blush.

When they walked 20 steps away from the emperor, the emcee reminded: "Look down, pay attention to etiquette, and continue to move forward." Then the emcee stopped, then bent down, and walked backwards out of the hall.

Wang Huili continued to move forward. When he walked 12 steps away from the emperor, the etiquette minister standing beside him shouted, "Stop the person coming."

Wang Huili stopped and knelt on the ground according to the etiquette of the legal officials, lowered his head and waited for the emperor's question. The rules of the Roman court were that visitors could not speak independently and could only answer the emperor's question.

Wang Huili heard someone in front of him say, "Premium." The etiquette minister shouted, "Premium."

Wang Huili stood up and still lowered his head to wait for the emperor to ask questions. When he heard the sound of "raising his head" coming from the front, he raised his head and looked forward.

In front of him there was a row of steps, about half a person tall, with a gorgeously decorated and wide seat in the center, with a young man wearing a crown sitting on it. According to the local aesthetics, the king in front of him was a very handsome young man. Next to the emperor's throne, a seat was temporarily added, and a young woman sat on it. Needless to ask, it was Queen Kent Tanka.

Queen Kenttanka has a three-dimensional face that is delicate and exquisite. Even according to the aesthetics of oriental people, she is very beautiful. Her figure is slender and well-proportioned, her exposed arms are round and soft, and her swan-like neck is fair and graceful. She sits with a lazy and lazy sitting position, exuding a wild charm.

According to etiquette, Wang Huili couldn't look at him too much, but he couldn't help but snatch someone with his eyes.

Wang Huili was hot all over, blushed and couldn't help but say a word popped up in his heart: Beauty. He didn't dare to look at it anymore, and his eyes turned to the queen's feet.

Queen Kenttanka usually would not appear in the court. She was also a little curious when she heard that Constance II was going to meet the people of the Tang Dynasty. In addition, she was worried that the people of the Tang Dynasty would say something unfavorable to Marquis Martel, so she also followed Constance II to meet Wang Huili.

Constance II looked at Wang Huili curiously and asked, "How far is your Tang Dynasty from Constantinople?"
