Chapter 21: Prom Adultery (1)

Spain specially held a noble ball for the visit of the Chinese minister to Europe and the British princess Victoria. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info However, the Western aristocratic ball, like the Chinese wine table, is a thing of the same nature. Because in China, there are often many deals that cannot be made at the wine table on normal occasions. On the Chinese wine table, it is easy to brew all kinds of "basic feelings", and at the same time, these "basic feelings" and "feelings" may also evolve into the "basic feelings" and "feelings" of the "organizations" represented by both sides.

The same is true for the Western aristocratic balls, where when the two sides are dancing, individuals and even two "organizations" can reach all kinds of "adultery" that ordinary people do not know. And at this ball, no one knows what kind of adultery is represented.

The ball began very quickly, and generally according to Western rules, men invited women. However, Xu Qing was accompanied by a few beautiful Chinese students, and such an "Oriental style" immediately attracted these European aristocratic men!

"Miss, can I ask you to do a dance?" A young Spanish nobleman said to Hu Ling.

Hu Ling obviously didn't understand what this meant, she hadn't even learned English thoroughly, so she couldn't talk about understanding Spanish, so she looked at Xu Qing with a confused expression, hoping that Xu Qing would translate.

"Sir, please don't be embarrassed by these female secretaries of mine. They are international students who have just arrived in Europe and do not know a foreign language. They don't even know English, so they can't understand your Spanish. I don't even know anything about Western dance, so please don't embarrass them! Xu Qing said.

Those aristocrats were depressed when they heard that these beautiful Oriental girls didn't know Spanish, let alone dance. I thought I could see if I could find a few "exotic customs" to play with, but I didn't expect the other party to be puzzled. Maybe in the East, Westerners are very concerned, but the same is true in the West, Easterners are very eye-catching, after all, this is a "foreigner"!

"Minister Xu Qing, how about you invite you to dance with your female companion? This ball is for you and Princess Victoria, who is only five years old, but you can take the initiative to invite her as a female companion! You are a foreign minister, and I think all the female companions present will not give you face, and they should all agree. A young nobleman next to him reminded Xu Qing.

This dance party is nominally to receive Xu Qing, Xu Qing doesn't take the initiative to invite the first one, then everyone is very embarrassed, it's not good to take the initiative to start!

Xu Qing quickly had a choice, he took the initiative to come to Queen Isabella and said, "Your Majesty, can I invite you to dance?" ”

Isabella and everyone present were stunned, this Xu Qing was really bold. Although Xu Qing is a foreign minister, it is too ...... for you to dare to invite the queen to dance when you meet for the first time

Although out of the idea of receiving foreign guests, female nobles generally do not refuse, but you invite the queen directly, what is this called?

But fortunately, although Queen Isabella is only fifteen years old, she has received a lot of education in nobility and diplomacy, and her adaptability is quite fast.

"Okay, Mr. Xu Qing, I'll dance with you!" Queen Isabella said.

Xu Qing took the initiative to start holding the waist of Queen Isabella, who was only fifteen years old, and then everyone danced together. Other aristocrats began to invite their female companions to dance. When the Chinese girls led by Hu Ling saw these men and women dancing together, their faces suddenly turned red.

"Oh my God! These Westerners are so shameless, right? "It's too ...... for men and women to dance together."

Those girls who have received traditional Chinese education are obviously a little unacceptable when they see this kind of scene for the first time. Although they are also mentally prepared to know that the West is more open. But it was the first time to see so many men and women hugging and dancing together, it was obviously very shocking, and this scene was enough to subvert their outlook on life, and it was almost incomprehensible.

"Sister Hu Ling, Lord Xu, Lord Xu......" A girl pointed at Xu Qing.

Hu Ling was also surprised: "Lord Xu is actually holding that queen there......"

Fortunately, these girls are all speaking Chinese, and the Spaniards next to them can't understand them, so they didn't offend anyone!

However, Xu Qing, who was dancing with the fifteen-year-old Queen Isabella, hugged the waist of this Princess Isabella, and the two danced a waltz together. This waltz is popular among the bourgeoisie, not only for its simple movements, but also widely loved in European countries. Young people, in particular, love this kind of ballroom dancing.

"Your Majesty, you are really beautiful!" Xu Qing hurriedly praised.

Queen Isabella also smiled and replied, "Mr. Minister, thank you for the compliment." I didn't expect you Orientals to think that we Europeans are beautiful? ”

Xu Qing replied affirmatively: "Of course!" There are no ugly women in this world, only lazy women. What's more, Her Majesty was born in the nobility, so this temperament is more beautiful than many women. ”

No matter what, this Queen Isabella is also a woman, and she is also a girl, so she naturally likes to be praised by others for her beauty.

"Your Majesty, I think your husband should start choosing, right? I think according to European custom, it should be selected from the royal families and nobles of various countries. However, Her Majesty is from the Bourbon dynasty, and the Orleans dynasty in France should not let go of this opportunity to deepen its relationship with Spain, right? Xu Qing asked.

Queen Isabella smiled and said, "I think this is the case in all countries, as a nobleman, marriage cannot be so free. ”

Queen Isabella also understands this, as a nobleman, marriage cannot be so free, even if it is a queen. This generation has been used to it, so she is also sad and joyless, and accepts it very indifferently.

"Your Majesty, this is, after all, your lifelong happiness. Although one of your cousins may also be of noble blood, according to what I have heard, this cousin of yours is probably not ordinary! When the time comes, I'm afraid you will be very unhappy. Xu Qing said.

Queen Isabella said with some seriousness: "This is our Spanish matter after all, Mr. Minister, it seems that you, the Chinese minister, are not suitable to ask directly?" ”

Xu Qing replied: "Your Majesty, if I say, which cousin of yours is a good person in Longyang. Oh, then let me be blunt, your fiancΓ© is a gay man, and you are the one who bears it, can you accept it? ”

Queen Isabella's eyes widened and her dancing stopped!
