Chapter 451: Duel

Zhuang Yang really doesn't like this strange smell too much, the wine should be pure and pure wine fragrance,

"What kind of wine is this? It's a little rancid, it's too bad to drink. Wan Qiyang immediately laughed and took a sip, feeling still good, but Zhuang Yang was not used to drinking foreign wine.

The word "hisky" comes from an old Scottish word meaning ater of life. Although the origin of whisky is no longer known, it is more certain that whisky has been produced in Scotland for more than 500 years, so it is generally considered that Scotland is the birthplace of all whisky. Whisky is one of the world's most famous distilled spirits, as well as one of the most popular liquor varieties in the bar.

However, Zhuang Yang's behavior made a table of people who had been watching them since they entered the café unaccustomed to it. As for the relationship between Wan Qiyang and them who are not locals and still wear aristocratic clothes, or whether they like to make trouble, at this time, seeing Zhuang Yang spit out the wine, what else did he say was probably not good, so he also stood up at this time and laughed loudly: "Where did the yellow-skinned monkey feel that people are drinking!" After saying that, he spat on the ground with great contempt.

Although Zhuang Yang didn't understand what the other party said, he at least understood that he was saying to him, and from this situation, he also knew that he was provoking trouble, so he wanted to stand up and fight back, but was suppressed by Wan Qiyang with one hand, he couldn't stand up even if he wanted to, he had to listen to Wan Qiyang to deal with it, and Jack was also furious, but he knew that he couldn't take the initiative to attack and had to give orders from his master.

"Jack, bounty handling!" Wan Qiyang also chose his own civilized method to solve it, how could he do it himself as a nobleman.

Wan Qiyang couldn't get used to the few people at that table, that is, the table with women in breast-revealing clothes. After Wan Qiyang's order was issued, Jack immediately understood it, and immediately took out a pound of gold coins, Wan Qiyang shook his head, and after Jack took out two more, he saw that Wan Qiyang had no objection and said: "Presumptuous, how can you insult the people of my Oliver family, I offer a reward of three pounds of gold coins, who will beat up the person who insulted my husband just now, this money is his!" ”

Suddenly, three people jumped out from different directions and ran towards the person, and at this time, Wan Qiyang also found that the person who was sitting at a table alone and was drunk here also ran to get a piece of the pie. After a few clicks, I only heard the man's scream, how could two fists beat four hands, let alone seven or eight hands and feet? But at this time, other people at the table also jumped out and shouted: "Stop, who is Your Excellency?" I'm going to duel with you! Do you dare or not? ”

The people who were beating this time also stopped attacking, looking at Wan Qiyang, after all, according to the rules, someone will solve the problem by duel, this is not something that others can interfere with, if they don't dare to fight, they will be looked down upon, and they will lose the battle directly. The duel between the two was a respectable way to resolve hatred, so everyone stopped to see how Wan Qiyang dealt with it.

Nobles, whether friend or foe, must greet each other when they meet, and men (if they do not wear full-body armor) are required to hold their right chest with their left hand, take off their hats with their right hands, and bow slightly forward and nod their heads at the same time. The woman is required to nod her head with her legs slightly bent and her hands slightly on the sides of the skirt. If the two sides are on horseback, the man's etiquette remains the same, and the woman only needs to nod. If a man is fully armoured, as long as he is not on the horse, he must take off his hat, press his left hand to his right chest and nod at the same time (there is no need to bow down, because in the Middle Ages, the chest and waist of the whole body were one, and it was impossible for you to bend down). If you're on a horse, you don't have to take off your hat or press your chest, just nod your head. In addition, if a male nobleman riding a horse meets a standing nobleman, if the other party is a higher rank than him or a woman, the male nobleman must dismount and salute as long as he is not wearing armor. If the rider is wearing armor, just nod in salute. In all cases, the tip of the weapon must be pointed towards the ground (the unsheathed sword may be unsheathed but must be pointed to the ground), and those with a bow must put the arrow in the quiver box and hold the bow in their right hand to salute. At that time, etiquette did not allow kissing a lady's hand. Nobles kiss hands only in the etiquette of the king and queen: the nobleman kneels down on one knee and bows his head to kiss the hand of the king and queen in reverence. The king and the nobles also kissed when they saw the cardinal who was in charge of the affairs of their country: they bowed down and kissed the large jeweled ring on the bishop's left hand that he wore on the middle of his left hand to indicate the status of the bishop (this ring was given by every bishop, and was given to the Holy See) During the medieval meal, the host had to sit down first, and the guests could sit down, and the host was obliged to propose the first glass of wine, after which the host and guest could toast each other. In the Middle Ages, guests and hosts were not allowed to wear full armor, and iron gloves, upper armour, forearm armour, front and rear breastplates, and helmets were not allowed to enter the dining room, as such clothing was a clear indication of being surrounded by assassination and a blatant affront to the reputation of others. However, weapons can be carried. The better the appetite, the more the host thinks that the banquet held was a success. Talking while eating and drinking are allowed (and since the 17th century have been considered impolite), and both sides must toast to the end, as is the current practice of taking a sip. During the meal, both the guest and the host can sing, but it is forbidden to make loud noises, and if there is a quarrel, no matter who is responsible, the guest should leave the table immediately. At the end of the meal, the guest must express his gratitude to the host for his hospitality in words, and when he leaves the table, he or she pays the full courtesy mentioned in the previous paragraph. During church Mass, men are given priority over women, and older people are preferred over younger ones in the order of court status and title. After Mass, men are obliged to carry holy water for any woman, and the order of going out is still in order of title and age, but when the status and title are the same, women take precedence. In any dispute with another person, you can ask your good friend to ask the other person for a satisfactory explanation, and if the other person refuses to provide an explanation or the explanation does not satisfy you, you can propose a duel; If the opponent realizes the mistake at this time, he can take the initiative to publicly admit the mistake, and the duel will be canceled; If the opponent does not intend to admit his mistake, he must participate in a duel. It is impermissible and dishonorable to ambush and assassinate the other side on the side of the road. Only the nobles and the clergy had the right to propose a duel, and the nobility and clergy could not propose a duel to a lower class than the knights (the knight-in-waiting, merchants, peasants, artisans, burghers, and small landowners without titles were all such classes), and the nobility could not initiate a duel with the clergy, only the clergy proposed a duel to the nobility (in which case the clergy would send a knight from the crusader to participate in the duel on behalf of the clergy). Both sides of the duel must use the same weapons, so that the opposing party, as the dueling party, has the right to decide which weapon to use. In a duel, as long as one side is no longer able to fight or voluntarily gives up resistance, the other side can declare victory. Because duels are generally related to the reputation of one's own family, the losing side often knows that they are unable to fight until they die in battle.

At this time, the beaten person has become a pig's head, and the other person still seems to have some power, he should also be a nobleman, and he actually has a weapon with him, probably because the Oliver family has not moved to Cambridgeshire yet, so his reputation is not very great. In this case, Wan Qianyang also stood up, and Jack was not worried at all, he saw Wan Qianyang take a gold coin from his hand.

"You want to duel me? Hahaha, Jack, do you think he's worthy? Wan Qiyang just laughed a few times, and Jack only saw a slight flick of his wrist and found that the gold coin that was originally holding on his finger was gone.

Everyone still thought that Wan Qiyang didn't dare to fight, and Jack also reflexively looked at the person who wanted to duel with Wan Qiyang, and at this moment, only from his frightened eyes could see that the other party had been controlled and couldn't move. There was a crisp sound on the ground, and it was the sound of the gold coin falling to the ground.

"Jack cashed in, the people who did it just now are three each, let them remember the Oliver family!" After Wan Qiyang finished speaking, he patted Zhuang Yang's shoulder and signaled that he was ready to leave!
