Chapter 43: Sharon
Alya was startled, and quickly patted her chest with her hand, and said a little unhappily, "What are you doing?" ”
The old woman said in a deep voice: "It's nothing, it's just that I am on the order of the second prince to remind you not to forget your own mission." ”
It's okay not to say this, as soon as she talks about it, Arya is angry in her heart, if the second prince had paid one-tenth of her current attention to her before, she would be content, she used to send the old lady to the waste like a prisoner, and now she stares at the old lady all day long to let the old lady provide you with information, it's really a hell of a life, let you take advantage of any good thing, and gave the old woman a white look, and said angrily: "I know what I should do!" With that, he turned around and walked away.
Came to the salon scene, saw his master Clifford sitting in the closest place to the second prince, Arya was quite proud in her heart, if Clifford could turn over, wouldn't it be good to follow him, why should you be angry with the second prince of Rausch, but this second prince is too annoying, holding the evidence that he is a spy, he must find a way to get rid of his control, smiled sweetly, sat next to Clifford, held his arm with both hands, and said coquettishly: "Master, let you wait for a long time." ”
Clifford didn't speak, smiled slightly, patted her delicate little hand, and signaled that it didn't matter.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the second prince and concubine smiled slightly and said, "Second prince, everyone is here, can our activities start?" "The second princess was born in a famous family and wore a simple long skirt, which was very elegant and noble.
The second prince sat on the sofa, put his hands on his knees, and said with a spring breeze on his face: "Of course." Today's salon is mainly for the exchange of poetry, of course, other things can also be said, everyone is still the same as before, speaking freely. ”
"Oh, that's great." A young man in his thirties with blond hair and blue eyes said happily: "I have just written a poem to dedicate to you." I have long heard that the second princess is a master in this area, and I want to take this opportunity to ask the second princess to correct her. ”
"That's great, Thomas. You're very good at it, and I really want to appreciate it. The second prince and concubine smiled and said. She is much younger than the second prince, she is not yet thirty years old this year, she is a young woman, and her charm is still there.
Encouraged by the second princess, Thomas stood up and sang his poems with great affection, which Clifford had little interest in, only that his poems were long and boring, but he was too embarrassed to refute them, so he could only listen to them patiently.
After about ten minutes, Thomas finished singing his poems, casually, put his right hand on his chest, bowed to the second prince and the second princess, and said with a smile: "Please give the second prince and princess." ”
The second princess still maintains her signature smile, she has been trained in etiquette since she was a child, no matter what kind of occasion, she can maintain her demeanor, which makes people feel like a spring breeze, and said: "Thomas, your poetry is so well written, it is very rhythmic, and it is also very beautiful." ”
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, it's my honor to be complimented by you." Thomas bowed to the second prince and concubine again, then turned his eyes to look at Clifford, who was sitting next to the second prince, and said with a smile: "Count Clifford, it is rare for the second princess to have such a good fortune, why don't you make a poem to entertain everyone?" He thought that his talent and family background were not under Clifford, but today he sat at the head of this waste earl, and he felt very uncomfortable, he knew that this Count Clifford could not compose poetry, so he made a fool of himself.
Clifford didn't think about it, he didn't know this Thomas at all, he didn't expect to make a feud with him, he had no interest in poetry and songs, in his understanding, it was just a pastime, and it was of little use to the country or to himself, he waved his hand, and said casually, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to write poetry." Come on, I'll just be a listener. ”
"How? Count Clifford, you are too modest. Thomas said reluctantly: "Today is the poetry salon, you are so favored by His Royal Highness the Second Prince, how can you not make a poem?" Besides, everyone knows that you have made great contributions to the country's New Deal, how can a talent like you not write poetry? ”
"yes, yes. Count Clifford, you can make a song, so that we can open our eyes, and don't disappoint His Royal Highness the Second Prince. ”
"That's right, the second princess is still waiting to appreciate your poetry, and it is really the honor of every poet to get the guidance of the second princess, don't you say? Earl Clifford. ”
The people who participated in the salon began to be angry at Clifford, even if Clifford was stupid, he already understood that this group must have been angry because he sat in the closest place to the second prince, and now he began to unite and hope that he would make a fool of himself.
Before he could speak, he heard a noblewoman laugh and quip, "Monsieur Count, you should compose a poem, according to the rules of the salon." If you can't write it, your female companion will have to toast everyone in the room with a glass of wine. Such a beautiful female companion, can you bear to let her get drunk? ”
As soon as she heard this, Arya was also scared, so many people, one person and a glass of wine, she had to be drunk like mud, and she had to be ugly, her hands tightly hugged Clifford's arm, a pair of big eyes stared at Clifford pitifully, and said coquettishly: "Master." ”
Clifford squinted at the noble lady who spoke just now, he was very unhappy with such a person, although he didn't like Arya very much, but so far, she was still his own maid, and the big dog still had to look at the master, not to mention the maid he brought out to participate in the event?
A surge of anger swelled in Kelifu's heart, Lao Tzu's own maid can punish him however he wants, outsiders don't want to bully, no matter who it is.
Before Cleifer could speak, the second princess also looked at Cleifer with a smile and said, "Count Cleif, you don't want the kindness of everyone, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has often mentioned you to me, saying that you are very talented." I'm going to show you a hand today. ”
"Yes, tenth brother. Those who come here are all their own people, so don't hide it, show your hand to everyone to see, and it can also prove that your second brother is not wrong. The second prince also smiled slightly, looked at Collie and said.
When it comes to this, it can't be more low-key, otherwise Arya will not only be drunk, she will not only be humiliated, but also offend the second prince and the second princess, after all, now that their power is in full swing, it is really inappropriate to reject them in public.
