Chapter 0470: Self-Inflicted Cleverness
The situation at the door soon alarmed the distinguished guests inside the door, as well as the Marquis Quentin, who was soliciting guests.
In fact, he had already discovered the abnormality at the door, but there were guests here, and it was inconvenient for him to leave directly.
However, he doesn't want to care about it now, after all, the door of his house is about to be demolished, and he, as the master, can't be indifferent.
The Count of Louis, who was standing opposite the Marquis of Quentin, raised his glass and signaled: "Your Excellency the Marquis, let's hurry up and take a look, otherwise I don't know what basket to come out of." ”
He smiled gently, as if he really cared about the other party, but in fact he secretly pouted: Let you invite someone you shouldn't invite, something is wrong now.
Although he had only had a few brief contacts with Lei Ye, Count Louis had already figured out the character of the other party, that is, he was not afraid of heaven and earth.
Marquis Quentin was an old man, so he naturally knew what the other party was thinking, he just smiled: "Then I'll take a look, please feel free." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and walked directly towards the outside of the banquet venue.
As soon as the Marquis Quentin left the banquet hall, his expression darkened, like the gloomy sky before the storm.
He beckoned to the attendant who was in charge of guiding the guests, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on outside?"
Seeing that his master's expression was not good, the attendant couldn't help but shrink his neck, feeling timid.
However, when the master asked him where he dared not answer, he finally had the courage to say tremblingly: "Because there are many guests coming and going, the door is a little blocked, blocking the way of Governor Renard, so ......"
Hearing this, Marquis Quentin took a deep breath, and his tone gradually became flat: "Blockage, who let you do this?"
If the street is not spacious enough, it is barely understandable, but the street outside the door is enough for four carriages to run in parallel, how can there be traffic jams?
The attendant heard the other party's tone soften, but he became even more nervous.
Anyone who knows the Marquis Quentin knows that the more angry he gets, the more calm he becomes.
The attendant was about to answer, but was directly interrupted by the person next to him: "Father, I asked you to do this, I'm very sorry I didn't let you know in advance." ”
The person who came was dressed in formal aristocratic clothes, less than thirty years old, with two delicate mustaches,
It was the son of the Marquis Quentin and the opponent of Lord Lei - Senior.
Marquis Quentin looked at his son, his expression did not change much, and asked coldly, "Why did you do this?" ”
Hearing the other party's unkind tone, Senior's apple moved, and said a little timidly: "Renard is the enemy of our Cronin family, and it must be bad intentions to come this time, I want to give him a dismount and let him know that he knows how powerful." ”
Marquis Quentin's expression finally changed slightly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he asked, "Now that he knows how powerful, or did he let us see how powerful he is?"
Speaking of this, Marquis Quentin's expression suddenly turned cold: "Who gave you the courage and right to do this?"
Senior, frightened, opened his mouth, speechless.
In fact, his idea is very simple, since Renard is the enemy of his own family, and he has lost the face of the other party, his father will definitely be very happy, and at the same time he will speak out for himself.
However, looking at my father's expression now, it seems that he is not happy, but a little angry.
The Marquis of Quentin said in a deep voice: "Governor Renard is a distinguished guest invited by me personally, and you actually want to give him a dismissal, don't you take me seriously?" ”
Senior's expression changed dramatically when he heard this: "I ......"
He wanted to open his mouth to explain something, but was directly interrupted by the Marquis Quentin: "Now give me to get back to your Sky Knights, and never appear in front of me without my notice." ”
This sentence is equivalent to a death sentence for Senior, and he may not be able to get the power center of the Cronin family in his life.
Although the Marquis Quentin wanted his children to be independent, he hated being smart people.
If the matter is done well, forget it, and if it is done badly, it will be the end.
Just as Senior's face turned to ashes, a deep voice came from beside him: "Father, what has happened, why are you so angry?" ”
The person who came was also dressed as a nobleman, but he was much calmer than Senior, but he was the head of the Honeysuckle Chamber of Commerce's branch in Arthur City, Count Mackinto.
Seeing this more talented son, Marquis Quentin's anger decreased slightly, and he snorted dissatisfiedly, and said, "It's still caused by this unsuccessful guy." ”
Marquis Quentin pointed at Senior: "If you have anything to ask him, here."
You can solve the matter, I can't come forward for the time being. ”
With that, he turned around and went straight into the backyard.
Marquis Quentin is really not good to come forward now, otherwise he can only face up to Lei Ye who is in a bad mood.
The two of them can't lose face in front of so many guests, and they must go-for-tat, I'm afraid they will break up unhappily.
Arrange a junior to go, let Lei Ye happily scatter the fire, and he will come forward to apologize again, and both of them can get by on face.
After sending the Marquis Quentin away, the Earl of Mackinto turned to Senior, and asked with a smile, "My dear brother, why have you upset your father again?"
When Seniore saw the other party's expression, he suddenly became angry: "Mackinto, it's not your good idea, I kind of understand, you are using Lao Tzu as a robber." ”
Before he could say something more, the waiter's announcement suddenly sounded outside the door: "Baron Renard, the governor of Southern Wilderness, has arrived." ”
Senior's face changed slightly, knowing that he couldn't meet the other party, otherwise he would definitely be ridiculed and ridiculed.
So he hurriedly raised his feet and walked towards the side courtyard, and before leaving, he did not forget to cast a fierce look at Count Mackinto, as if to say: You wait for me.
Count Mackinto did sneer, and muttered, "Poor idiot, it's too late to come to your senses now." ”
After the briefing, Renard calmly got out of the carriage, and then walked to the banquet hall in the mansion under the guidance of the waiter.
Entering this mansion, he really understood what it meant to be wealthy.
The building is carved and painted, the garden is full of flowers, and the rockery is innumerable, which is completely built according to the model of the oriental garden.
The area of this manor is really large enough, and in terms of scale, it is comparable to the royal mansion of the East.
After walking for nearly twenty minutes, when we arrived at the banquet venue, the sky was completely dark, and bright stars appeared in the dark night sky, but they were far from being comparable to the brilliant lights in the mansion.
It can be seen that the Marquis of Quentin attaches great importance to this banquet, and the whole banquet hall is decorated with flowers and satin.
Dozens of tables made of mahogany filled with a variety of delicate foods, all of which are rare oriental delicacies.
It can be seen from this that the Marquis has great respect for oriental culture.
