Viscount John de Bioford could clearly feel Lan Li's provocation and counterattack, and laughed angrily, jokingly and disdainfully, and then, without warning, the smile disappeared from the corners of his mouth, his eyebrows were upside down, and his whole expression became fierce again, and he kept beating the crutches in his hand, and Bang Bangbang's voice was like thunder.

"Are you talking to me about etiquette? Don't look at who you really are, what kind of identity am I? When is it my turn to perform etiquette on you? It's up to you? Not worthy!" John did not hide the disgust and hatred in his eyes, and the dignity from above burst out unreservedly, as if he were a lowly pauper.

John's eyes widened, and he scolded.

"The day you choose to be self-defeating, your name and your identity are gone, and now you come to talk to me about etiquette and honor? Ridiculous! You are a disgrace, a disgrace to the whole family! Your father and mother should be grieving at home at this time, and you should be exiled far away to the island of Elba, never to appear!

God, I can't believe you're still at today's party! Even if Richard isn't in his right mind, you should know that you don't belong here anymore, and you are far away. Don't be seen by anyone! It's a shame to stand on this land! Shame, you know?"

Mighty and gushing.

John's words poured down like a torrential downpour, giving no one a chance to interrupt.

Beatrice's cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes glinted with anger, and she tried to interrupt John, twice, but unsuccessfully, which made her even more irritated, but she could only stare at John.

"You should shut up. Matthew's voice rang out, inconspicuous in John's stormy curses, but Matthew didn't care, his voice rose little by little, "You should shut up!" The categorical retort of remarks, seemingly unpretentious, but loud and sound, after two consecutive times, interrupted John's words abruptly.

Facing John's face full of bewilderment and surprise, Matthew raised his gaze and met the other party's eyes, "The Sun Never Sets Empire has been destroyed. The old ideas of a century ago have been buried in the ground with those rotting corpses, and if anyone still harbors such dirty and ugly thoughts, then he should also become history. ”

Matthew, who is usually silent, is always inconspicuous, but it must be noted that he is a royal criminal defense lawyer.

didn't name names, but gave John a hard punch, so that he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't immediately refute it.

Matthew continued, "I've heard that now the British people no longer respect the royal family, and even want to outlaw it. Princess Diana's deeds, that was only fifteen years ago. Matthew's words were so heavy that he even ignored William and Kate, as well as Beatrice, who were standing next to him, and cruelly tore open all the good packages.

William's face changed slightly, but he didn't refute. Because of the fact that Matthew said.

"As for the nobility. Matthew still didn't stop his words, staring at John's little by little iron face, not only did not weaken, but also sharpened, "Except for a title, there is nothing left." But everyone still pretends that they are still living in the age of the empire on which the sun never sets, confined to their own small circle, and in my opinion, they are also a group of actors, and their acting skills are better than anyone else's. ”

With that, Matthew raised his hands and clapped twice softly, gently, at John.

The applause was not loud, but it was thrown in John's face like a slap in the face, as if to say: The scene just now was too wonderful, send applause to show encouragement.

The corners of Lan Li's mouth lightly outlined a light smile. His anger comes from George and Elizabeth's insatiable greed, not disappointed, not sad, but the emotional surge after the other party has gained an inch, but Matthew is really full of firepower, which makes Lan Li find it funny.

"Matthew, when you lift all the veils, it is very impolite for a knight, noble etiquette teaches us that we should always restrain our emotions, and worldly etiquette teaches us that we should respect the old and love the young. Lan Li smiled and said, "It's not polite for you to behave like this. ”

Matthew shrugged slightly, nonchalantly unresponsive.

But it was this cynicism that really angered John. Lan Li's words just now were obviously aimed at John, mocking him for having neither aristocratic demeanor nor worldly bottom line, which was completely embarrassing.

"Performance. It was an eye-opening performance. John straightened his waist, truly showing the heritage of the aristocracy, that kind of condescending demeanor, even in the face of William and Kate, he can still have the upper hand, the precipitation of the years and the inheritance of history really show a sense of heaviness at this moment, "Since I like to perform so much, and I attended the party tonight, why not dedicate a performance to it?"

John's eyes fell on Richard, "Having invited the actors to the party, and the actors kept emphasizing their professionalism and dignity, why not give the actors a chance to show off their skills and entertain the public? ”

In and out of the words, John was insulting Lan Li.

In high society, they often hold private display parties. For example, Edith's solo photo exhibition, and Beatrice's piano recital.

At these parties, the aristocrats are willing to share their skills, which is an artistic display and an artistic exchange, and at the same time shows their own connotation and heritage. But the premise is that it must be a private party, and only really close friends and family, or guests of high status, will take the stage to perform.

There is also the case where the nobles imitate the royal family of the past and enjoy the performance.

The royal family often trains their own musicians, dancers, etc., and they perform to add entertainment to life, and these musicians and dancers are similar to the status of servants, unless they are as talented as Mozart, get rid of the status of court musicians, and enter the upper class, they are inferior.

During aristocratic banquets, they also invited special performers as part of their entertainment. There was a time when Hollywood stars were popular in British high society, and they all liked to invite these Hollywood stars to appear at banquet parties as "actors", and then invite them to perform.

Hollywood stars here are actually like circus performers. However, in the eyes of the outside world, they have managed to enter the upper class, like gilding, and when they return to Hollywood, they can share their experiences, and they can win more job opportunities and public attention, so Hollywood stars will not resist.

It is precisely because of this that Hollywood, in the eyes of the traditional British aristocracy, has always been not much different from the theater troupe and circus. Such a scene was vividly presented in the work "Gosford Manor".

Now, John asked Lan Li to perform, apparently not the former, but the latter, and treated Lan Li as a lowly and humble play, and let him perform for all the guests. The problem is that the story of "Gosford Manor" takes place in 1932.

That's the real humiliation.

"Sir! Richard shook his head and solemnly rejected John's offer.

But John was aggressive, "Why, he doesn't want to? I thought he was used to it." It was a part of his life, wasn't it? Or was his work too bad to show? lest all the Haikou would have been exposed. ”

From beginning to end, John didn't look at Lan Li squarely, but just glanced at it with the rest of his eyes, as if he was calling and lingering, and that contempt was revealed from the depths of his bones.

"Of course not!" Beatrice finally couldn't hold back, and blurted out a word of objection.

John cast his gaze, "Beatrice, don't interject when adults speak. You see, even the Duke of Cambridge understands such etiquette, so please don't behave rudely in front of others. ”

Beatrice was annoyed and tried to defend herself.

Richard was also extremely upset, and tried to refute it again.

But before they could utter their words, an answer came from the side, "Okay." ”

All eyes were cast in unison in the direction of the source of the sound, and it was actually Lan Li.

"Lan Li!" Beatrice was the first to blurt out.

Lan Li had a bright and upright expression, and a shallow smile appeared on his face, "Why not? On such an occasion, show off your artistic skills and learn from each other, why not? What's more, it is rumored that today's protagonist seems to be me, in order not to disappoint the guests, I should also show my face and express my gratitude to the host." ”

There was no grievance, and there was no reluctance, Lan Li responded calmly.

George and Elizabeth, who were standing on the side, looked more and more embarrassed, the development of things is now gradually getting out of control, if Lan Li really performed at the party, then it was the surname "Hall" that would be disgraced, but the problem was that this proposal was put forward by John, and Lan Li agreed, and it was too late for them to object.

It's like...... Hang as high as Haman.

George's gaze fell on Lan Li, and gradually became darker. He was sure that Lan Li did it on purpose, deliberately to humiliate them, deliberately to take revenge on them.

Sure enough, Lan Li turned around, met the gaze of George and Elizabeth, and said calmly, "We all know that in the theater performance, Mozart is Mozart after all, and Sarière is Sarière after all. Even Joseph II could tell the high and low, didn't he?"
