Chapter 124: It's not the same as what was said
"Every one of you, you're ...... or have done their own for the Kingdom"
Avery. Yerewood?
Carlil searched her memories diligently, and she knew very little about the king, so that when she looked at the king from afar, she had a curiosity like suddenly seeing a legendary figure. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
And as a national aristocrat, it seems to be a very undesirable mentality, just like ordinary office workers who don't know their top bosses, otherwise they don't know who the current national leaders are, and they don't know what brand of cigarettes the top boss likes, well.
"The prosperity and development of the kingdom...... Thirty years...... There are also good results, of course...... Everybody...... All have credit. ”
The king did not sit down on his seat for a long time, and with a few guards on his left and right, he dragged his robes and stood on the high platform of the hall and spoke slowly.
It just sounds like something isn't quite right.
Perhaps in the first sentence, everyone felt that they were walking in the field, and they didn't pay much attention to the words of the old king Avery, and felt that the atmosphere of the meeting and the ball was the same, and they walked in a almost so-so rhythm, and everyone began to eat and drink, dance and connect with each other, and wash away the troubles of the day.
But the old king's slow second sentence made a group of nobles come back to their senses, and there was something not quite right. Why are you starting to play some off-string sounds?
One by one, the nobles in the hall began to find a place to stand, and the men and women who were already dancing lightly on the dance floor began to turn their attention to the old king who was standing three points taller in the distance, even if they did not stop.
"Hmm...... I am also grateful for your efforts to ...... for us and for my people, my territory and my family. Of course...... Whatever some of you have done. ”
The old king said slowly, his gray beard jumped and jumped with his words, and the neat hair that had been combed in the past was also slightly sluggish today, and as he spoke, he glanced between the men and women in the audience with his eyes, and the guards beside him stood straight, protected by shiny armor, and decorated with a gorgeous piping red velvet cloak, although he could not see his face clearly because of the influence of the helmet, he could make people feel similar to the old king's demeanor.
What happened?
Carlil glanced at her father with a puzzled look, but Morton looked at the audience with a smirk, ignoring Carlil's eyes. So Kahlil had to look at Angus again, and the guy frowned, not noticing what Karil meant.
Forget it, looking at this expression, it is estimated that it will not be much more than you know.
Kahlil shrugged her shoulders and waited for the matter to continue on its own.
Everyone in the whole hall was still talking sporadically, and the atmosphere didn't seem to be affected too much, as if the old king just said some ordinary opening remarks, but secretly the group of brightly dressed nobles were showing their different eyes......
Even the crowd of people who seemed to stand and chat casually with wine glasses were vaguely divided into different circles, showing their respective positions in the bright lights, with a gambling mentality, betting that the team they stood on would bring the greatest benefit to themselves.
As if she had suddenly thought of something, Kaliel looked across the crowd and looked at Kezia who was mingling with her comrades, Kezia turned her back to her, and couldn't see what her expression was, which made Kahlil shake her head slightly regretfully.
If only Red Lotus Qingci and Angelo's group of bastards were also around.
Kahlil thought alone, although Qing Ci and Red Lotus should be nearby at this time, but she was used to the appearance of several people walking together, and now she always felt that it was not very safe.
In case of any accidents, I don't know if it's too late, so I guarantee that I'm okay, and then I can bring someone else...... It's hard to say.
She leaned against the wall with some weakness, hiding her figure in the backs of Morton and Angus, and the old ghost glanced at Carlil out of the corner of his eye, and then took his gaze back.
The old ghost too, I don't know if I know something.
"I hope ...... We can always make the right choice, and so do I, so do you, all of us...... For the sake of their respective ...... or a common interest...... This is also, understandably. For the choices that have been made...... Maybe there's no turning back, so pray to the gods...... Prayer, it is the most correct thing to do. "Prayer ......" the old king said, his eyes met with the nobles present from time to time, and only the person who looked at him knew that the old king looked at himself, said different things, and at the same time looked at different people, some nobles understood in their hearts, and some people did not understand why, the old king paused, and then said, "...... Pray it's not a dead end. ”
The hall was a little quieter, the atmosphere was a little weirder than just now, and the old king seemed to be quite satisfied with this effect, and his wrinkled cheeks smiled slightly, without hypocrisy, and naturally smiled, like an ordinary elder.
It's just that it is impossible for everyone present to treat him with the same eyes as they would treat ordinary people.
Being coded in front of others, and it seems to be something very important, and he can only stare dryly as if he is pinching the ciphertext without a password, which makes Karil really a little unhappy.
Hey, it's best if there are no problems, although often the plan doesn't change quickly.
"Hmm...... I'm sure you guys ...... All people are smart people, they understand things, and they will not be ...... Foolish trap to confuse, then...... It's time to go."
The old king raised his hand, took the scepter from under his robe, and slammed it on the ground, and then sat down in his seat under the gaze of everyone, and the guards on either side also took a half step back and stood against the wall, reclaiming the truth they had before.
The cheerful atmosphere of the dance floor quickly returned, and even if the men and women had ghosts, they would not show it on the surface, stepping on the brisk dance steps and putting on smiling faces that they didn't know whether they were true or not.
The music that has not stopped has only then returned to the ears of many people, reminding everyone that this dance party has really begun.
"What the hell is going on?"
Kaliel finally couldn't help but go up and pull the corner of her father's coat and asked.
Morton turned his head and tried to touch his daughter's head again, thinking that it was better not to be too casual in front of everyone, so he put his thick palm on Karil's shoulder again.
"What do you think of His Majesty?"
As usual, Moulton didn't answer Karyl's question, but instead threw out another question without thinking.
What do you think? What how?
Kahlil frowned, she didn't like this method of communication at all, so she simply replied nonsense: "Not bad." ”
Morton was suddenly a little amused, and secretly laughed, and it could be seen that he was in a good mood.
"The nobles other than us are not monolithic, in this kingdom, including His Majesty the King, no one really holds absolute control, so there will always be fights......"
Morton shook his head, retracting his hand and ignoring Kaliel's questioning look.
In this case, the old king is indeed ...... What's it called? Avery. Yerwood did seem to have two brushes, and it didn't seem like a man who would do anything to see the situation clearly, and to give up the kingdom to others, would agree with the Lord in his external stance and it seemed like he was a little sorry for his face.
Originally, Kahlil thought that the king would be a little more mediocre.
And...... On this occasion, the king was the only one with his bodyguard, which seemed to be something missing.
"The four princes of His Majesty all died of various misfortunes, or of illness or accidents, before they became adults, and there is no evidence that these deaths were secretly manipulated, but...... Who would believe it? ”
Angus watched as Carlil looked in the direction of the king from afar, and gave Karil a first answer to any questions she might have.
"But even so, it's a bit ...... to just bring the guards with you Strange thing. Maybe...... It's the awareness of something. ”
At this point, Morton suddenly interrupted Angus, he turned his head to look at Carlil and said, "You don't have to worry about these things, but if something happens, you have to be able to protect yourself." ”
Of course...... "I'm not the kind of ordinary little girl who won't be so prone to accidents."
Kahlil nodded, and Morton patted her on the shoulder with satisfaction, and said that he would go around as well, and walked out of the corner occupied by a few people, and quickly blended into the rest of the crowd.
Angus and Carlil stood side by side, looking at each other, neither of them having much to say.
"Okay, okay, it's a dance party after all, can I invite you to do a dance?"
Angus held out a hand towards Kaliel, and the old butler took a step back to make room for his own master.
Dance?
Kaliel's expression suddenly became a little embarrassed. This was more troublesome for her than unleashing any high-level magic or any great alchemy, although Kaliel's body should have this knowledge in her original memory, but such things require movement and experience...... There's really no bottom.
"Oh...... Thanks, oh, I mean...... Forget it, I'm sorry, that, you see...... Actually, I'm not very good at it, and I feel ashamed......"
Kahlil replied embarrassedly, feeling a little too reluctant to live up to Angus's sincere invitation.
"I'm sure you can do it, don't you?"
Angus didn't want to give up just like that, he paused a little, and then invited again.
"Eh, this and this...... If you can, let's change it to next time, and I'll be ready when I get back. Karil was even more confused now.
"You don't need to prepare, as long as you are willing to participate with me, and you won't have any requirements for dancing."
"But ......"
After a long time, Kahlil still planned to put the dancing thing away, although Angus seemed to really want to invite him, but in the end it was still a big shame.
So the two of them pushed and shoved for a long time but couldn't convince each other, it seemed that they could go a few more rounds, but unfortunately Angus's invitation was suddenly interrupted by the voice of the old ghost on the side.
"Sir, I'm sorry to disturb your invitation to Madame, but may I remind you that a gentleman should not be a nuisance to Madame, and of course, more importantly, a person who needs more attention at the moment is coming to you."
Only then did Kahlil and Angus stop their game-like invitations and rejections, and looked in the direction indicated by the old ghost's white gloves.
Kezia, who was two points more drunk than just now. Boena, holding a gorgeous wine bottle, was walking towards the two of them with some swaying.
A sentence suddenly flashed through Kahlil's mind: "It's really a weasel giving New Year's greetings to chickens......" (To be continued.) )
