Chapter 597: Dinner Dance
That night, this dinner in the palace of Queen's Island was the most awkward dinner in Lin Shuo's life.
One thing to say, the note from the old father-in-law Di Hongzhe revealed at least one piece of useful information.
That's when it happened.
It must have been after the dinner, otherwise Lin Shuo would not have been persuaded to drink or not.
If you get drunk, as long as you don't get to the level of alcohol poisoning, you'll be fine for about six hours.
In other words, from after the dinner to between three or four o'clock in the morning, during this time, something will happen against Lin Shuo.
The dinner itself, on the other hand, is relatively safe.
Of course, it is the judgment of the old man that the dinner is not safe, and Lin Shuo can't fully believe it.
However, after the head of the hunting gate and his wife Dilan went to the banquet, when he saw this posture in the main hall, it was indeed safe.
Because there were so many people, there had to be hundreds of guests.
The clothes and appearances are good, especially the female guests, who are all dressed in open-chested and backless evening dresses, which are jewels and glamorous.
As soon as Lin Shuo entered with Di Lan, the man was handsome and upright, the woman was beautiful, and they were the protagonists of this dinner, which attracted everyone's attention at once.
This kind of occasion is a social occasion in the European aristocratic circle, everyone is watching, the cultivator will not do it at this time, and the safety is guaranteed.
However, although personal safety is guaranteed, Lin Shuo is very uncomfortable.
The dinner party here in Europe is different from that in China.
No matter what the nature of the Chinese banquet is, the theme is to eat.
No matter what is going to be discussed at the dinner table or what ceremony is going to be held in the lobby, the table in front of the guests must at least be able to suppress the scene.
People are also sitting at the dinner table, and they will raise their heads to talk and deal with the scene, and it is not a big problem for honest people to bow their heads to eat quietly.
But the dinner party in Europe is actually a cocktail party.
There are all kinds of wine to drink at the Chinese dinner table, and here in Europe, whenever this kind of dinner party is celebrated, it is basically one kind of wine, that is, champagne.
This is actually white glucose wine after adding sugar and fermenting again, which contains gas.
After Lin Shuoren arrived at the drinking party, he first asked for a glass from the attendant, and when he smelled it, he knew that there was nothing wrong with the wine here, but it was difficult to get himself drunk.
The alcohol content is not very high, within fifteen degrees.
The point is that people don't have enough to eat.
There was a table at the reception, but it was shared by everyone, and the food on it was just for show.
If you're really hungry, you can take a few bites, but if you sit down and eat a sea plug, you will be laughed at.
Besides, as soon as Lin Shuo came to this occasion tonight, he said that he was the protagonist, but in fact, he was a decoration next to Dilan.
The task of setting up the furnishings does not even have the opportunity to cushion the two.
There were a bunch of people in the venue, chatting in groups of three or five, all of whom were Dilan's aristocratic relatives.
Just spill a glass of wine, this can be poured on the two dukes and earls, and Diland has to take Lin Shuo everywhere to introduce people, this is my husband.
What is the daughter-in-law talking to the people, the Nordic language and English are both Germanic, but the pronunciation is different, and Lin Shuo can't understand it.
He could only smile and nod.
Change people, keep smiling, then nodding, and so on.
This whole day was in the sky, Lin Shuo didn't eat much, and he was really hungry at this time.
There with an empty stomach and being led away, the only thing that can go into your mouth is champagne.
Not only is he not used to drinking this wine, but there are bubbles in it, and he will burp from time to time.
It's definitely uncomfortable, but this is my daughter-in-law's maiden home, and I have to endure it no matter how uncomfortable it is.
was led by his daughter-in-law, and this circle of people recognized it, and more than half an hour passed.
Lin Shuo thought to himself that it would be good now, so he could go to the dining table and eat a few bites.
Lin Shuo was about to secretly tell his daughter-in-law to let her lead him over, but he heard three crisp sounds of "ding ding ding".
It's the sound of a silver spoon hitting a champagne glass, crisp and pleasant.
The effect is the same as the waking wood in the hands of the domestic storyteller, drop it, let everyone suppress the words and put your attention on this person.
The current venue is a meeting room in a palace, with a two-story structure.
On the first floor is a splendid lobby with a beautiful decoration and a large area.
In the middle of the lobby is a staircase with a wool carpet with gold on a red background, and the steps are wide, and the handrails are carved and hollowed out of ivory.
When the staircase reaches the middle section, there is a landing, and then the left and right sides are divided into two, leading to the east and west sides of the second floor.
Now the Norse queen came down from the second floor and stood on this platform, holding a champagne glass and a silver spoon.
As soon as Lin Shuo saw his mother-in-law standing there to speak, he could only temporarily dispel the idea of running over to eat and looked up.
This Nordic queen is named Mary, her bloodline is from England, and there are two queens named Mary on her ancestors, named Mary I and Mary II, so she is Mary III.
Queen Mary III, at the age of eighteen, met her senior Di Hongzhe when she was studying in England, and the two fell in love.
At that time, Mary was only the fourth heir to the Nordic royal family, so she had no chance.
As a result, the higher ranked ones died young, and she became the first heir to the throne at the age of thirty, and ascended the throne the year before.
The Queen is forty-five years old and has always been well maintained.
When Lin Shuo met her for the first time last year, he felt that his mother-in-law looked like she was in her thirties, graceful and luxurious.
Standing with Dylan said that some sisters believe it, but ordinary people don't believe it.
The queen wore a veil at the airport today, so Lin Shuo didn't take a good look at her, so he felt that his mother-in-law was a little hunched.
It is estimated that the airport is too cold and frozen, and people can't stand upright.
When I looked up at this time, I saw that my mother-in-law was old.
It's only been a year, how do you look more than ten years older?
The hair is gray, the folds on the neck of the face are also out, and the makeup is already difficult to hide the old age.
No wonder Dylan cried in the car.
Dylan was naturally sad when he saw his mother's body and appearance suddenly become like this.
And Lin Shuo at this moment, after a short period of surprise, a raging anger was born in his heart.
If it was just a matter of state affairs, it wouldn't be like this.
In just one year, who tortured my mother-in-law like this?
The head of the hunting gate narrowed his eyes, adjusted his breathing, and suppressed the anger in his heart.
Now in this scene, there is no anger.
The Queen, though old on the stairs, looked very happy and was saying something aloud.
Lin Shuo naturally couldn't understand what she said, but she could guess eight or nine.
Because at the Queen's words, all the guests present looked at him, and then applauded.
It seems that the mother-in-law is ceremoniously introducing her son-in-law to the guests.
Lin Shuo quickly adjusted his facial expression, made a smile, and kept nodding around.
He knew in his heart that even if the princess and the queen had a lotus tongue and praised themselves as flowers, the effect would actually be the same.
The identity of the head of his hunting door cannot be disclosed.
And even if it is made public, this group of noble relatives of Dilan is not in the cultivation circle, and they don't know the weight of this identity.
So in the hearts of these aristocratic relatives, he is also a hillbilly lucky person.
At present, this applause, the face is not for himself, but for the queen.
Lin Shuo's eyes swept the crowd, and he could still find a few pairs of hostile eyes.
This kind of hostile gaze does not mean murderous.
This is jealousy, because he married the most dazzling pearl in the entire European aristocratic circle, Princess Adilina.
Lin Shuo didn't care about these at all, thinking that he would be able to go to the table to eat a few bites after the queen's introduction.
That's the most real.
As a result, the queen said these words for five minutes, and finally waited for the mother-in-law to finish speaking, and a band came into the venue.
Lin Shuo watched as the dining room was removed, and then the music started.
The whole venue walked to the side, and there was a vacancy in the middle, which became a dance floor.
Lin Shuo is stupid.
This was said to be a dinner party, Lin Shuo thought it was a dinner, but it turned out to be a drinking party and a dance party, and he was stunned that it had nothing to do with eating.
After the head of the hunting gate came to his senses, he nodded, bit his daughter-in-law's ear and said, "I understand, what are they going to do with me." ”
"Huh?" Dilan didn't understand, and glanced at her husband.
Lin Shuo shook his head and sighed, "They want to starve me to death." ”
Only then did Dylan react, and he couldn't help but laugh all of a sudden.
The Nordic princess looked at the surrounding situation and whispered, "You and I will go up and dance in a while, and deal with the scene, and then we will slip away, and I will take you to the kitchen to find food." ”
"That's great. Lin Shuo suddenly felt that he was saved.
"Oh yes. Dylan asked, "Can you waltz?"
"No, it won't. Lin Shuo blinked.
"And what will you dance?" asked Dylan.
"Nothing. Lin Shuo shook his head confidently, "Yangge can twist a few times." ”
Di Lan rolled her eyes, she was angry and funny in her heart, but after all, she loved her husband, and knew that this person was hungry, so she simply stomped her foot: "Then you will go up with me to twist a Yangge." ”
"It's really twisting. Lin Shuo smiled, "Don't worry, I'll just watch them dance for a while." ”
......
This is really not Lin Shuo's bragging, but all body movements, whether it is boxing or footwork, he will see it since he was a child.
Otherwise, it would be a cultivation wizard.
Of course, if you want to thoroughly understand a set of punches in actual combat, it will take time to figure it out slowly.
But ballroom dancing is not a matter of life and death, just two strokes, and there is a musical beat, and Di Lan also leads, which is not a problem for Lin Shuo at all.
After watching the first dance of others, Lin Shuo and Di Lan came on the stage generously.
As soon as the couple came on the stage, after all, they were the protagonists of tonight, and everyone else simply stopped dancing and gave up the entire dance floor.
It seems that there is also a tacit understanding, to see if Lin Shuo, the royal hairy son-in-law, has seen the world before.
I've seen him smirk and nod before, so let's take a look at his skills now.
The opening dance is a waltz, that is, a slow three.
This kind of dance is gentle, and there is no difficulty, Lin Shuo and Di Lan easily jumped down.
However, although the dance was very ordinary, it was the first time that Dylan danced with her husband in front of her relatives on such an occasion.
Lin Shuo also danced very well, and the two seemed to have a natural tacit understanding.
This feeling made Dylan enjoy it very much, and at the same time, it was showing her face in front of relatives with her husband, so she was still unsatisfied after a dance, and asked a little shyly:
"Are you really hungry?"
Lin Shuo's stomach was empty at this time, but his brain was not empty, and when he saw his daughter-in-law's expression, it was naturally difficult to interrupt her interest, so he said: "I suddenly think that dancing is very interesting, why don't we dance a few more." ”
"Hmm. Dylan looked delighted.
So that night, Lin Shuo danced while learning, and poured a few glasses of wine while watching others dance in the middle, and the night was very fulfilling.
He and Dylan are a pair of beautiful people, and they circled around the dance floor, and the atmosphere of the scene became lively.
The man is handsome, the woman has an outstanding demeanor, this appearance, this musicality, and this figure are indeed pleasing to the eye.
Lin Shuo learned a lot of ballroom dancing this night, what waltz, Viennese waltz, tango, foxtrot, rumba, chacha.
Dilan was very happy, since he married Lin Shuo, he was the happiest that night.
Seeing that his daughter-in-law was happy, Lin Shuo was also happy in his heart, and unconsciously, he drank a lot of champagne.
There was no food in the stomach, this was drinking on an empty stomach, and I got drunk faster than usual.
So by the time the dinner party ended, Lin Shuo was already a little faltering.
Walking is like stepping on cotton, swaying three times at a time, as if the dance has not yet been danced.
The man just shook out of the palace and got into the car.
The car drove to the place where the princess and his wife stayed, that is, the China Palace, and it was only five minutes away, and the car was no longer available.
Lin Shuo vomited a carriage, and he didn't spit out anything seriously, it was all wine.
When he got off the car, Lin Shuo was standing next to the car, not only shaking, but also breaking steps under his feet.
Look at this rhythm, it still means waltzing.
Dylan will go up to help him, but he pushes him away.
"I'm not drunk! I can go!"
The head of the hunting door has a very loud voice, and his tongue is not small.
And the time at this time is exactly twelve o'clock in the middle of the night.
Seven Assassins who had been in ambush for a long time made a move.
