At 7 p.m. on July 5, 3467 A.D.

When the chanting of the porter finally ended, it also meant that the dinner party had officially begun. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Evan stood in the center of the banquet hall and solemnly introduced Elbert's identity to the nobles of Erosa attending the dinner. Although his welcome speech was full of praise for Elbert and the Clegghorns, Charlotte noticed that the Erosa nobles did not seem to pay attention to the so-called crown prince at all.

He even suspected that Erbit still had the status of a disciple of Emmanuel, and it was estimated that the nobles would not even be in the mood to applaud and welcome him.

The decline of the once-glorious Clegghorn royal family, the feudal family of the Grand Duke of Erosa, can be seen from this, and the nobles of Erosa treated the crown prince more out of polite welcome than without any element of awe.

For a moment, Charlotte even felt that the crown prince, who could only be used as Aven's foil, was too pitiful.

However, it is also a matter of course. The so-called feudal lord is not my feudal lord, because of the nature of feudal society, these Erosa nobles do not have the slightest concept of being responsible for the Clegg horn family.

After Evan had sent away a few of the more important nobles of the Principality of Erossa, Charlotte, who had already healed her injuries and was dressed freshly, took the opportunity to step forward and ask her doubts.

"Hey, Aven, you seem to have a bit of an opinion about that Elbert guy. ”

"Who said that!"

Evan raised his glass to a nobleman in the distance and denied Charlotte's speculation without looking back.

"As the heir to the Clayderman family, how dare I be disrespectful to His Highness Elbert. ”

"Come on, my brother, you're already unhappy with him! I'm talking to you about serious things, could it be that Elbert who is the object of your suspicion?"

When he realized that Charlotte was indeed talking about Vivien Leigh, Evan turned around and dismissed Charlotte's speculation with a serious expression.

In fact, Elbert didn't come to Lucerne in the last few world lines, so he probably couldn't be behind the events at Vivien Leigh. Of course, personally, I was looking forward to this change, because it would mean that the world line had begun to close in an unknown direction. ”

"I see, but you just said this guy, right, it means that it's not the first time you've met him, and besides, it seems that there is some friction between you and him!"

Charlotte nodded knowingly, and then, she quickly saw the hole in Aven's words, and went to the bottom of it.

Although there is a gossip psychology in this, as far as Charlotte is concerned, she is indeed curious about what Elbert did to make the good-tempered Evan deliberately target the other party.

Evan was slightly stunned, he realized that his antipathy for Elbert had been unconsciously manifested in words and actions, which made him skim his face a little unnaturally.

"Actually, he didn't me off, but...... I'll admit that he did disgust me, because that guy had mentioned to my father more than once that he wanted to marry Vivien Leigh and become the next Empress of the San Lorenzo Empire. ”

"Ha, I see! I'll just say why that guy spends the afternoon around Vivien Leigh! But it's not a big deal! My sister always gets married, and it seems that this Elbert is a good bet to marry. After all, he didn't get angry when we mocked him so much, to be honest, if you want to put it on me, I can't help but explode!"

Charlotte shrugged her shoulders boringly, he thought that the reason why Evan hated Elbert was boring enough.

"It's not a big deal? Are you kidding, Charlotte!"

However, something unexpected happened, and Evan actually showed an uncharacteristically angry expression, and his voice was so indignant that the nobles at the banquet looked at the future lord in amazement, and they didn't know what had caused the good-natured Grand Duke to be furious.

Evan soon realized that his emotions were out of control, and he smiled awkwardly and raised his glass to the nobles around him, and then apologized apologetically to a bewildered Charlotte.

"I'm sorry, Charlotte, I was in a bad mood just now. However, I think it must be that these years of study have made you lose the energy to pay attention to politics. If she marries into the Clegghorn family, what will happen to the Holy Sword? What about the dragon legion that can be expected in the future? Elbert doesn't like Fei Wenli at all, it's just like my marriage to you, it's a damn political marriage! Can you bear to let our little sister follow that footsteps?"

What he said did make a lot of sense, but that didn't explain why he was so angry. Charlotte looked at Evan in front of her, and always felt that the other party seemed to be a little strange.

"You're right, I'm taking it for granted. But you can think of things that my father can also think of, and the treacherous and cunning father will not agree to this marriage contract. If it's destined to be just a flash in the pan, why would you target Elbert like this and treat him like a clown?"

"I'm sorry, you're right. I just don't like this kind of political marriage that betrays my feelings, just think that I am speechless for a while, and I will pay attention to my words and deeds in the future. ”

Hate political marriages, then...... Do you hate Cynthia too?" Charlotte looked at Aven, who seemed to have a fire in her blue eyes, and finally couldn't get that sentence out of her mouth.

He finally realized that eight years had passed, and nothing had changed as he had assumed.

Maybe in the corners that you don't notice, including yourself, everyone has their own subtle changes. It's just that because of the joy of reunion, I subconsciously ignored that change.

An even more terrifying conjecture lurked in Charlotte's mind, who knew the former Aven, a teenager who was kind to anyone and gentle as the spring sun. If he gets angry, it must be because he values his loved ones too much.

Elvin...... Should he be ...... to Vivien Leigh

Because it may have been so blasphemous that Charlotte, who was standing in the lively banquet hall, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

However, all this is a completely different picture in Alec's eyes.

Haha, look at what stupid things that Kimpton bastard has done! He has angered His Royal Highness Evan the Grand Duke of Erossa, and is now breaking out in a cold sweat at a loss!

Enraged by the shame of the morning, Alec decided to do something to stomp the man who dared to oppose him into the swamp.

"His Royal Highness, Grand Duke Aven, Gui'an, and Alec, the third heir to the throne of the family of the contemptible Count Corry, would like to send you my sincerest greetings. ”

He restrained his joy and bowed politely to Evan with a trembling shudder. Then, blushing at Aven's puzzled expression, he patted his chest at Aven like the most loyal vassal.

"May I ask if this damned bastard has annoyed you? please don't be angry with this aristocratic shame, the contemptible Alec would like to relieve your worries!"

Aven, who had become embarrassed by the episode just now, looked at the blonde aristocratic young man in front of him in surprise, and he looked at Charlotte, who was also surprised.

Out of the importance of the Clayderman family's glory and relationship with the Duchy of Icewind, he immediately rebuked in a stern tone.

"I think you've drunk too much, Alec. You must have recognized the wrong person, now apologize to me and step down, Charlotte and I can not hold you accountable for your drunken gaffe!"

If this idiot hadn't been the son of the Corey family, Evan would have called the guards to blast him out of the door.

Alec looked at the stern and angry Evan in front of him, and then at the snickering Charlotte, he really couldn't figure out what was going on.

Also the son of the Earl's family, Charlotte is still a shameful illegitimate child, why should Evan be so unkind to himself?

"No, no, I don't understand what you mean! If I accidentally bump into you, then I would like to express my sincerest apologies to you, Your Highness Aven. However, if I want to apologize to this bastard, please forgive me......"

"Shut up, Alec, are you insulting our Claydermans? In front of you is my brother Charlotte Clayderman, His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Icewind! Your nonsense is not only an insult to the Claydermans, but also a shameless slander against the Duchy of Icewind! Throw this drunken bastard out the door!"

Ai Wen was so angry that his body trembled, he really didn't know what kind of madness this idiot in front of him had gotten to slander an illegitimate child against a noble prince and a thousand-year-old nobleman!

This is a matter of family glory, and Evan feels that he can't take it anymore anyway, and decides to let this self-killed guy go to his own fate.

Once blasted out of this gate, Count Corey will surely let this person take matters into his own hands to wash away his family's stigma after learning of Alec's shameless slander against the Clayderman family and the Grand Duke of Icewind.

Alec's body trembled like a sieve, and he looked at the angry Evan and the stunned Charlotte next to him, and he finally realized what a stupid thing he had done.

Oh my God! The one who was jealous of himself during the day was actually Charlotte, the Grand Duke of Icewind Castle! It was the second young master of the Clayderman family who was rumored to have passed on to the Grand Duke of Icewind Castle.

And he, a child of the Earl family, who was not taken seriously, dared to beat the Grand Duke, and insulted the Clayderman family and the Icewind Castle family in front of the two Grand Dukes.

He felt that his life was over, was it a damn joke? Why did fate play tricks on him like this? Is it just a jealousy that will ruin the future of himself and his family?
