Chapter 152: The Most Solemn Auction in the Royal Capital

Within a week, there was a dark tide surging in the royal capital.

The origin was an invitation from the Count's Court of Carreno, sent to every nobleman's palace in the royal capital, and the irritating thing was that the invitation was like a joke, saying that the auction house of the Count's Court of Carreno on Liuli Street was going to hold a grand auction, the date was set for a week, and even the host wrote Count Carreno himself.

If this is really a grand auction, what can Count Carreno himself preside over? Those little nobles couldn't help but panic, they must go, Count Carreno personally presided, if you don't sell this face, don't want to mix in the royal capital!

This was the idea of the low-level nobles, and they didn't have much of an opinion.

The main thing is that there is a little annoyance among the upper nobles, and this invitation does not even have a list of items to be auctioned! It stands to reason that the auction house will make a roster of the goods to be auctioned, and interested nobles will naturally attend.

After reading the invitation, several grand dukes disdainfully threw it aside: "No sincerity! Count Carreno is living too nourishingly, isn't he? Dare to play such a trick in front of us! ”

The Duke made it clear that he would not attend such a low-level boring prank! It can be said that the Count of Carreno caused public outrage. He did not dare to go out for several days, and even a few nobles who came close to him were politely rejected by him, because he also knew that this method had offended the upper echelons of the Thai half, and this purely mortal act made Count Carreno almost collapse.

Fortunately, because it was the first time this kind of thing had happened, and the royal family had received the invitation, His Majesty the King did not dare to decide without making it clear.

At this time, His Majesty King Aragon was accompanying the queen to enjoy the flowers in the back garden.

"My dear. This is a tea that the Marquis of Blue Rose brought from the south and you taste it. ”

Aragon personally made the queen a cup of tea, and the clear tea was lightly fragrant, and the queen smiled and tasted it, still pleased with the king's actions. To tell the truth, His Majesty the King is a very gentlemanly man. Although he is almost fifty years old, it does not hinder his charm as a mature man, which is the reason why the queen can't help but beat fast for him when she reaches this age.

His Majesty's courtesy does not make people feel far away, he is gentle, a pair of calm eyes seem to be always watching you, he has three other princesses, but everyone says that he is dedicated, because there are far more than three kings and princesses in history. Even a hundred times more.

"Your Majesty, you can try it too, I like this jasmine tea very much."

The queen is definitely a beauty, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes only add some gentle and generous temperament to her, she never hides it, and she never applies cosmetics that she dislikes to anyone, in the eyes of the king, she is a cup of tea. Coincidentally, all the drinks. The queen only likes to drink tea.

"No, I've been drinking too much coffee lately, and I haven't had a good night's sleep."

Aragorn said casually, with some anticipation in between, and sure enough, the queen immediately frowned and asked, "Your Majesty." Although you are busy with official duties, you must pay attention to rest, I have recently been researching some folk decoctions for sleeping, and I have tried it myself......"

Aragorn interrupted the queen's words with a gesture and raised her chin. Not frivolous at all, but affectionate, as if to see the queen's beauty, the queen bowed her head and struck Aragorn's hand.

"The old husband and wife are still here." The queen said angrily, "Look at it......

"Hahaha! What do I think happened to my wife? Aragorn smiled heartily, and the queen sensed his gloom.

"Your Majesty, have you been bothered lately?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that Count Carreno, the one from the Northeast Province, has a problem for me."

Aragorn put an invitation on the table, and the queen took it, and with the same bewilderment, said, "What is this Carreno doing?" I didn't even write a list of auction items, just this empty sentence. ”

"Yes, I think he is confused, and he will do this kind of thing to offend all his colleagues in the royal capital."

The queen covered her mouth and smiled: "It's just a trivial matter, just go down to your majesty." ”

"Hmph, just with a ridiculous invitation, you want me to give him this face for nothing?"

Aragon was not a mediocre king, and of course he knew that once he showed his attendance, it would mean that all the nobles of the royal capital would go, and it was an honor for the Count of Carreno to rely on this. The point is that although the invitation is exaggerated to describe the auction item, Carreno is very confident, but Aragorn thinks that there are not many auction items on the mainland that can interest him, and he goes, feeling like being led by the nose by a mere earl.

The queen reminded: "The ancestor of Cocarreno was the founding general......"

"Because of this, he has always been able to occupy the northeast and prosper, the Carreno family is not as good as the generation, if it weren't for my thoughts of the love of my ancestors and secretly promoting them, it would have declined a long time ago, so if I didn't attend, this would be a big blow to the Carreno family, just because he offended so many nobles, there will be no good life in the future, let alone ......"

"What's more, my majesty is a wise king, if you don't understand your subjects, it will chill the hearts of the people." The queen took the initiative to say something bad for Aragorn, which made Aragorn feel relieved for a while.

The queen took the initiative and said, "It's not easy to do, I'll just go!" ”

Aragorn's eyes lit up, the queen's wisdom has always been admired by him, it can be said that most of the troubles he encountered in the court and politics were the queen's ideas, she always had a way to solve them, and this time she really found the right person.

"Your Majesty, if I represent you, I can not only win the hearts of my subjects, but also not lose your face if there is any accident, and it can better reflect your majesty, just with a dead letter from Count Carreno, I must not call you in exchange for Your Majesty."

"Atti ......," Aragorn gratefully called the queen by name, "I don't know how to thank you, you have helped me too much." ”

The queen fell into Aragorn's arms and said with a smile: "Between us, what else do you say...... Moreover, there are three sisters who definitely want to join in the fun, so let's go for a walk together. ”

The king liked the queen's generosity the most, and never showed jealousy of the other princesses, and often took them with him for everything, and Aragorn said dotingly: "I will listen to you." ”

Three days later, the news came out from the major families that the queen would represent His Majesty the kingdom at the auction of the Count of Carreno, which made the nobles breathe a sigh of relief.

In the past few days, a slave trader in the slave market, the hobbit Guro has almost gone crazy because he actually received an invitation! When he opened the gilded envelope, his hands were still shaking, because it was written with the signature of Count Carreno!

Xia Yi sent an invitation to Gu Luo for no other purpose, she needed a spokesperson in the royal capital, she had dealt with Gu Luo superficially when she bought the goblins of Old Conca and Odin , this hobbit has his own unique ideas, has a business acumen, and still retains a good nature in the slippery head, so she wants to close it, there is no business material in her territory.

Xia Yi definitely didn't expect that if she forgot to say hello, it would cause Gu Luo so much distress.

The gods are above, Gu Luo doesn't know any Count Carreno, but he knows the weight of the title of Count of Lu Dao very well, and he almost smashed him breathlessly, even when he met a viscount, he thought that day was his lucky day, but this was the earl! One of the most prestigious families in the royal capital!

This night, Gu Luo couldn't sleep, he was thinking, which bastard was joking with him, but the quality of the envelope invitation, as well as the seal from the Earl's Palace, must not be faked, this is a big crime to kill the head!

"Shet! Is this the god of fate favoring me, or is the god of doom playing with me?! ”

Gu Luo didn't dare to tell anyone about the invitation, because once he was reported, he had a "fake" Earl's Court auction invitation in his hand, and he would be expelled from the human kingdom at the least, and his life would be at stake. So Gu Luo can only speculate on his own.

The next day, Gu Luo also went to inquire about the recent auction of the royal capital, and the matter of the invitation of the Count of Carreno had become known to everyone, and he easily learned that His Majesty the King had also received the invitation! On top of that, the queen actually said that she would attend as a representative! All the nobles of the royal capital will participate!

"Oh my God, what did you do to me......"

Gu Luo slumped on the bed, he didn't know if he should attend this auction, all the nobles who received the invitation said that they would go to the auction, if he was absent, the vacant spot would definitely be dug up, and then he would be dead. If he went, he would have died even worse if he had been recognized as a fake, because he knew that he was absolutely not eligible to participate in this auction.

"Will the queen go too?" Gu Luo's heart twitched, although he wanted to see the legendary beautiful and wise queen, but once the opportunity came, he was afraid.

So in the past few days, Gu Luocha doesn't think about eating, and worries all day long, always feeling that his end is coming. The day before the auction opened, he finally made his decision, he had to go!

Gu Luo first went to the tailor's shop, he must have a decent dress, otherwise with the tattered on his body, he will be blasted out before he even enters the door. It's just that he doesn't have much money, so he can only rent a gorgeous clothes, and the deposit makes him feel distressed for a while.

Nervously walked to Liuli Street, the shops here are not comparable to the Warcraft Market, everyone's temperament and grace dwarf Gu Luo, he is almost walking with his head down, like a cat that has broken into a kennel!

However, Gu Luo finally met the only acquaintance who reassured him in the past few days: "Miss Summer! Miss Charity! Are you Miss Chailly?! ”

Guro remembers Chailly because she was the patron of his first business and the source of his first pot of gold. (To be continued......)
