Chapter 41: The Opening
"Brother, you were so handsome just now, that golden retriever was so suppressed by you that he couldn't move!"
At this time, as the blonde man Gu Ran left, the people who came in with him also disappeared. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Is it really okay? You've just used the ability to manipulate the air......"
Hearing this, Qi Xiao was stunned, he never thought that he would solve the problem in such a drastic way, but at that time, he only felt a nameless fire, and subconsciously did it......
"It's okay, it's just air manipulation, and those people don't know me......"
Seeing his sister's face full of worry, Qi Xiao slowed down her voice and began to comfort her.
……
In the box of another restaurant, only Gu Ran and the slightly chubby man sat next to each other.
Gu Ran played with the transparent wine glass, and took a sip of mellow wine from time to time.
"That boy's ability is definitely A-grade...... It seems that you have produced another great character in Huaguo. ”
"Class A? The little imp who doesn't look like an adult? ”
"Of course, this is my own experience......"
"Lord Gu Ran, do you want me to help you carefully adjust the difference."
In the box where there were no outsiders, the chubby man used a more respectful title.
"Well, I'll leave that to you...... Moreover, I have a hunch that he and I will definitely meet again......"
……
After the three of them got Qi Xiao's clothes, perhaps because they were disturbed by the blonde man, they did not continue shopping, but returned directly to the hotel.
It wasn't until 7 p.m. that the family, dressed in fancy clothes, took a car sent by the royal family to the place where the coming-of-age ceremony was held.
After about half an hour, the car drove to a lake.
The lake is so large that you can't see the edge at a glance, but there is a bright light coming from its center, and it is a small island in the lake.
Around the lake, many heavily armed guards are patrolling, checking the invitations before letting people pass. Presumably, this is where the rite of passage is truly held.
After getting off the bus, it's time to take a boat.
A small boat carried Qi Xiao's family to the island in the center, and in about ten minutes, the four of them set foot on the land of the island.
It's a little darker and cooler, but it doesn't hide the beauty of the island.
There are many trees on the island, and the carved beams and paintings seem to be irregular, but in fact, they are cleverly arranged, so that no matter what angle you look at, it is a picture of the perfect coexistence of buildings and trees.
After disembarking from the boat, the four of them were led by the attendants to a marble-paved square.
Small tables are arranged around the square, apparently for guests. At the same time, there are three attics around, and there are many people sitting on them.
It is not that the identity has been distinguished, or that the people who come are either rich or noble.
If it's noisy below, you can sit upstairs.
If you think it's too far upstairs, you can sit on the edge of the square and watch it up close.
Qi Zhenghai led the three of them and chose a place to sit in the center of the square, the table was in the shape of an ancient style, and the four of them happened to sit side by side.
After a while, the people around gradually increased, and everyone began to greet each other.
Speaking of which, Qi Zhenghai also has an earl title, and he has a common language with the people around him who are full of nobility at a glance.
However, in this era, knighthoods are mostly a manifestation of honor and have not received much attention.
"Zhenghai, this is your son and daughter?"
A deep voice came.
Turning his head, a tall man in a white costume stepped forward, accompanied by a middle-aged woman in the same white costume and a young man in his early twenties in azure costume.
"Old Xiao, it's you! Okay, it's gone! ”
Qi Zhenghai got up, and the two strong middle-aged men hugged each other.
"The last time we met, it was when we were soldiers, I remember that you were a thorn in the head, and the instructor dared to fight."
"Don't talk about it, that time was enough to lock me up in a small black room for three days."
The two looked at each other and laughed.
In the middle of the night, the laughter stopped.
The man surnamed Xiao pulled the middle-aged woman next to him and said, "Let me introduce you, this is the insider Yang Yi." ”
The middle-aged woman saluted Qi Zhenghai, and then the man surnamed Xiao looked sideways at the young man next to him.
"This is the dog Xiao Yun, now come out and start your own business." The man surnamed Xiao turned his head back and continued, "In the future, it will depend on you to take more care." ”
After speaking, the young man stepped forward, saluted a few people, and said, "Uncle Qi, three younger brothers and sisters, you are polite below. ”
The standard Chinese ancient etiquette, speaking is also crepe, which is very consistent with his delicate and elegant image.
"Okay, yes, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to you Qibo!"
When Qi Zhenghai saw the son of the deceased, he was excited, and stepped forward and patted Xiao Yun on the shoulder.
It seems to be delicate, but under Qi Zhenghai's strength, Xiao Yun is motionless and completely bears it.
Secretly praising himself, Qi Zhenghai turned to signal to Qi Xiao and the three of them.
"Come here, meet your Uncle Xiao, this is my comrade-in-arms who was born and died."
The three of them saluted according to their words, and their delicate and gorgeous appearance somewhat made the man surnamed Xiao lose their minds.
Especially the middle-aged woman Yang Yi, staring at Qi Siya non-stop, only thinking that there was such a beautiful and comfortable girl in time! I'm afraid it's just a princess......
The middle-aged man surnamed Xiao saw it and understood what his wife meant.
"Let's sit and have a good chat, and let the young people get acquainted with it."
As he spoke, the two sat on one side. Yang Yi took advantage of the situation and pulled his son and sat with Qi Xiao.
There are drinks and pastries on the table, and everyone is not afraid of boredom.
Between the conversations, most of them are names, ages, studies, and so on.
Yang Yi paid special attention to Qi Siya, and talked about her son many times when talking to her.
And Xiao Yun was chatting with the youngest 'younger siblings', that is, Qi Xiao and Qi Sihan, but every once in a while, he would secretly glance in Qi Siya's direction.
Qi Sihan saw that this handsome man was interested in his sister, and he was very curious, so he kept asking him.
Inexplicably feeling depressed, Qi Xiao had a cold face, and would never open his mouth unless the other party asked.
……
By half-past eight, the guests were seated.
Then in the middle of the square, a middle-aged woman walked in, seeing that she was dressed gorgeously, wearing a high crown, and obviously had an official position.
Seeing this, the voices of the crowd gradually fell until the audience calmed down.
Nodding with satisfaction, she didn't use amplification equipment such as microphones, and the high-crowned woman spoke directly, but the voice seemed to sound directly in everyone's ears.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Princess's coming-of-age ceremony, and here, in the name of the royal family, I would like to extend my greetings to all of you."
Bowed, and the audience burst into applause.
"At this point, the rite of passage officially begins."
As soon as the voice fell, the lights were brilliant in an instant, and the whole island seemed to enter daylight!
……
Next, they are all singing and dancing performances according to the ancient system.
A group of beauties in palace costumes are in the middle of the square, either playing the piano or dancing, which is beautiful......
Half an hour later.
The song and dance converged, and the high-crowned woman reappeared.
"Now, I invite the royal princess - Zhao Ling'er!"
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, heart-to-heart, and a rite of passage...... It's finally begun.
