After separating from Oloch, Renard and the others found a hotel to stay in, and then he wrote a letter of worship to Arka and ordered him to be taken to the palace, and a very long wait followed.

The king is not something that can be seen by anyone, and the process of meeting the king is very cumbersome, and the first thing to do is to write a letter of appearance, indicating one's identity and origin, as well as the purpose of the request to see the king.

Then the king would read the letters of the audience when he had time, and leave what he thought was important, and throw away the not.

How to distinguish which is important or not, the first thing to look at is the level of the title and the size of the territory.

The empty nobles passed directly from the earl down, and the real power lord or feudal lord was chosen according to the size of his power and the size of his territory.

After deciding on the number and time of the audience, the king will send someone to the place of temporary residence to inform the king, and then the king can be formally presented.

However, it was not a solitary meeting, but a simultaneous audience with the king, and the venue was not a formal occasion, but a small ball or dinner.

Perhaps the kings of Western countries were more spontaneous, or perhaps the demands of any lord were irrelevant to him except for the territories under his rule.

Therefore, the main purpose of the ball was not to entertain the nobles who came to meet them, but only for amusement, and some of the minor nobles who met them might not be able to talk to the king after the whole dinner.

That is to say, if you come to see His Majesty the King, you can't see it, and if you see it, you can talk about it, and you have to say another thing, and if you can't do it, you basically resign yourself to fate.

However, Lei Ye would never have thought that His Majesty's summons would be so fast: "You said that His Majesty the King would summon me alone?"

The Praetorian guard who came to herald the order did not speak, but nodded with a cold expression.

The other party's attitude was expected by Lei Ye, the king's guard, and his strength was good, and his background was not bad, and he didn't give him a face like a country nobleman, and his attitude was very good.

Reynard hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "Now?"

The guard nodded impatiently: "You'd better hurry, Your Majesty's time is precious." ”

Lei Ye immediately straightened his attitude, and then said, "Okay, please wait a while, I'll go and tell my entourage." ”

After speaking, he took out two magic crystal cards with a denomination of ten gold coins from the space ring, and said with a smile: "Please also ask this lord to smile." ”

Seeing this, the guard raised his eyebrows, then looked at the two magic crystal cards, and then a bright color flashed in his eyes, and his tone of voice suddenly became a lot more affectionate: "You are light." ”

actually used honorifics, Lei Ye couldn't help but shake his head secretly, money can make ghosts grind, and the ancients did not deceive me.

He immediately summoned Arka and Ford and others, and advised: "I will go to see Your Majesty, you stay honest, and do not go out and cause trouble." ”

In fact, Lei Ye is more at ease with Arka and others, mainly targeting Ford and Salisbury, the two troublemakers, although they have not caused any big trouble, but it is not reassuring.

Christopher obviously saw his concern, and said in a solemn tone: "You can go without worry, I will take care of the two of them." ”

Ford and Salisbury were still laughing, but when they heard this, their smiles suddenly stiffened: "What do you mean?"

Renard didn't bother to listen to them, and after giving the order, he went directly to the palace with the janissaries.

Lei Ye carefully inquired about the etiquette to be observed during the audience halfway, and the guards also knew everything: "There is no etiquette, just act like a nobleman, and be polite when talking to His Majesty the King." ”

In the open countries of the West, there will be no bathing and burning incense, kneeling and bowing, everyone will explain things clearly face to face, and stay for a light meal when they have time, this is the basic attitude of the king towards his courtiers.

Arthur's Palace will not be as magnificent as the Forbidden City, it is not much different from the other buildings around it, it is only larger, taller, more spacious, and somewhat like an English royal palace in appearance, surrounded by gardens, and the outermost perimeter is built with a wall that is not very high.

However, Renard will not be contemptuous because of his simple appearance, looking at the appearance of three steps and two posts around him, not to mention ordinary bandits, even if he sends a large army to come, he does not want to get half a step close to the palace.

The guards took Lei Ye to the main gate, whispered a few words to his colleagues standing guard, and then led him into the garden.

The scenery here is very beautiful, but Lei Ye doesn't have time to enjoy it, he is faintly nervous now, although the other party is the same age as himself, but after all, he is the king who holds the power.

However, to his surprise, the Praetorian did not take him directly to His Majesty's office, but led him to a small parlor on the fourth floor of the castle.

Renard didn't think much about it, since it was an audience, naturally he couldn't be in such a private place as the study.

The Praetorian guard sent him here and whispered, "Don't run around, just stay in this parlor." ”

Lei Ye hurriedly showed an obedient attitude, and then sat on the sofa in a proper manner as if a primary school student was being visited by a teacher.

Seeing this, the Praetorian Guard relieved himself slightly, and quickly turned to leave.

Lei Ye only waited for half an hour, and the door of the living room was opened again, and he thought that His Majesty the King had arrived, so he immediately got up and wanted to pay a visit.

However, when he saw the person who came, he couldn't help but be a little stunned, only to see a little girl probing her brain into the living room through the open gap.

Then, before he could react, the door to the living room was completely opened, revealing Sylvia's near-perfect figure and face.

Renard once fantasized about the two meeting again, and the most perfect of them was the encounter at the ball.

It's just that he never thought that the meeting between the two would be so simple, and even a little embarrassing.

Renard gently tugged at the corners of his mouth and shouted respectfully, "Your Royal Highness Princess." ”

Silvina's expression did not change, she took the little girl's hand and entered the living room, and then closed the door.

The little girl looked a little nervous and cramped, her hands were dragging Sylvia's skirt, and then she asked in a childish voice, "Mom, who is this person?"

Sylvia held her daughter in her arms and introduced with a smile: "This is the uncle that my mother often says, the one who saved my mother's life." ”

Uncle Renard touched the stubble on his chin and remembered that he was in his twenties.

Time flies so fast, he secretly sighed, and then added: "Your Royal Highness Little Princess, my name is Renard Duncan, and I am a baron conferred by His Majesty the King himself. ”

The little girl tilted her head and thought for a moment, then pouted and said, "What a little officer." ”

Are all the people raised by the royal family so snobbish?

Silvia's expression was embarrassed when she heard this, she gently patted her daughter's buttocks, and whispered, "Don't tell the truth." ”

Renard: "......"
