Chapter 6 Banquet
Looking at the "young man" who was walking slowly, Lan Yuan was slightly surprised.
The so-called "teenager", the skin, such as mutton fat white jade, the slightly hooked nose, and the smart eyes, all constitute a beautiful beauty picture. The body that has not yet developed looks green, wrapped in a wide bathrobe, which looks a little funny, but it is seductive, and the white little feet, lightly stepping on the ground, shrunk together, seem to be very nervous......
"First...... Mr. The girl's voice trembled a little, timidly, and said. The voice, just like the yellow warbler out of the valley, is a beautiful green girl, with a unique voice.
"You don't need to call me sir, just call me Lan Yuan. Smiling slightly, Lan Yuan, said gently.
"Yes...... Lan Yuan...... Earl. The girl still took a step back, making De Lan Yuan a little uncomfortable, but she still smiled and didn't say anything.
"Earl, to-night...... There was a ball held by the king. A servant walked up to the side and said respectfully.
"Well, okay, take the invitation for me, and say, I'll be there on time. Smiling slightly, Lan Yuan said.
"By the way, do you know how to dance?" Lan Yuan asked with a soft smile looking at the girl on the side.
"A little bit...... Studied when I was a child. The girl nodded honestly, looking a little reserved.
"Well, I just lack a dance partner, dear miss, you must be over sixteen, then...... How about being my dance partner?" Lan Yuan smiled elegantly, then looked at the girl in front of him and politely stretched out his hand.
Gently put her hand on Lan Yuan's hand, the corners of the girl's mouth hooked up a shallow smile, and there was a small dimple on her face, which was very cute.
"What did you learn before?"
"When I was a kid...... The father was a country doctor, so ...... I'm a little bit good at medicine. The girl looked at Lan Yuan in front of her, but she raised her head lightly and looked at the somewhat handsome man in front of her.
"Really...... Then take a look, this book, can you understand it? Try to learn as much as possible, and it will be easier to find a job in the future. ”
Nodding, the girl picked up the book with the blue cover and began to flip through it.
"This medical technique is very clever, but ...... But some of them are not very professional. The girl sat in a seat beside her with one hand on her cheek, and the bathrobe on her body had been replaced by a dress trimmed with gold thread, with no jewels on it, but a few strands of dark green patterns.
Smiling slightly, he nodded, affirming the girl's medical skills, Lan Yuan put his hand on the girl's shoulder on the side, and said softly: "I haven't asked yet, what is your name......
The girl got up slowly, grabbed her hand on the edge of her skirt, pulled it up slightly, received one foot behind the other, and squatted down gently, at the same time, smiling skillfully.
"Elizabeth Hill, my lord. ”
At six o'clock in the evening, the ball was held as if the rich factory owners and the dignitaries were chancellors of the exchequer or princes...... Of course, the second prince will never see this scene again.
Because, today, there is a scholar who wants to show a miraculous phenomenon in front of the king.
Of course, Lan Yuan had already investigated in advance, and this so-called scholar was actually an alchemy master who was often called a puppeteer......
I don't know how today's farce will be...... How does it end?
A strange animal, with four arthroids on its body, roared and roared, and under the whip of a coachman, quickly pulled a four-wheeled vehicle, the coachman's skill was very good, or rather, the road was very flat, and in the blue abyss and Elizabeth in the car, there was no bump in the slightest.
Elizabeth held Lan Yuan's arm with one hand, the smile on her face was innocent and smiled.
"I've heard that there will be a very powerful magician going to perform, sir?" Elizabeth exclaimed affectionately as she looked at Orchid Yuan with an excited expression.
"What, it's a famous university scholar. Scholars, explorers and adventurers who explore the true laws of this world, don't you take them with a small stick, obviously to let others get lost in the false and real world, however, these individuals themselves can't tell the difference between truth and falsehood, and its ridiculousness......"
If someone who knew a little bit was present, they would mock Lan Yuan and say, "The magician is a person who really understands the truth and falsehood of magic, how can he not tell the truth from the false?" but...... Lan Yuan happened to beat this kind of person with one hand.
Because, Lan Yuan is not just the only knighted warlock in the whole country.
Well, speaking of which, I think that's all he has achieved.
After all, here, it doesn't seem like there's any title or anything like that. After all, think about it, nine out of ten warlocks, are fanatics......
There is one more!
Cultist......
Well, it seems, it's really not very reliable.
Outside the car, the sound of the joints touching the ground has slowly stopped, and the wheels have gradually stopped.
Then, pulling Elizabeth, Lan Yuan slowly stepped out of the carriage, looked around, there were still many vehicles parked around, and then, in front, there was a palace that was much stronger than his duke's palace, inside the palace, the yellow and clear lights shone on a radius of 100 meters, singing and dancing, from which came the laughter and laughter of the dignitaries, as well as the laughter and scolding of everyone in it.
Also, there is a group of idle homeless people, lying in the distance, staring straight inside, with envious looks on their faces and greedy eyes.
These, although they are their masters, are ...... Or them, for life, for the last little thoughts, and for all of them, for the future...... A yearning for the future.
You know, these people are simply losers in life, they can only look at the winners, wait, and expect that one day, they can also do that position, well, enjoy, enjoy the success of reaching the top one day, and one day, you can enjoy the life of the old man.
Of course, what about this......
How could it be.
Slowly holding the hand of the beautiful woman next to him, he walked to the palace, and at the door of the palace, a soldier took the invitation and bowed deeply.
"Last time, thank you to the earl, if it weren't for the earl, my father would ......" The soldier on the other side was a little nervous, looking at Lan Yuan in front of him, and thanked him for all kinds.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's talk about it after this round. Hurriedly got up and helped the soldier up, slowly walked into the palace, and greeted the nobles in the palace very politely - it can be said that most of the nobles in the palace are good friends of Lan Yuan, and even, there are some true friends who can make friends.
For them, Lan Yuan is one of the few true nobles in this empire, and the real nobles are loved by all other nobles.
Therefore, as a nobleman, how much I hope to be able to see more polite people. Therefore, Lan Yuan can be said to be the most promising person in Andy this time for the throne.
However, Lan Yuan knew that his time was running out, and he was not ready to wait for the old king to retire there, he couldn't wait.
He wanted the old king to die directly, because, the gods, as if they were about to come, the octopus-like king in yellow, Hasta, was the indescribable being, the amulet on his chest, recording the existence of the wind...... The glory of the past, the indescribable being, will spread its presence to all places. Lord of the Deep Sky Starry Sea!
The former shepherd god was like a cheerful young man, and yet ......
What is this? This is the truth......
Looking at the brightly lit palace, Lan Yuan felt the feeling of being accompanied in his heart. Gently held the girl's slender hand in his hand and felt the warmth.
However, in Lan Yuan's heart, there was really no feeling.
Dazed, at a loss, this is Lan Yuan's true heart.
"Miss, would you like to dance with me?" stretched out his hand and put it on the hand of the girl in front of him, and the two began to follow the music playing, and began to follow the gorgeous steps under their feet, gloomy and sad dance steps, which was the favorite rhythm of the nobles at this time.
The long period of depression, the barrenness of the empire, the starvation and freezing of 2.5 billion people.
However, they are just a joke, they are born, they will only look for flowers and willows, and they live in this era with this empty heart.
The two held hands and slowly rippled to the beat, like the happiest couple in the world, however, the longing in Elizabeth's heart, and ...... The confusion in Lan Yuan's heart will not be connected.
Because, their hearts, will not be connected at all.
Looking at himself and Elizabeth who were dancing slowly, Lan Yuan slowly walked inside the palace. The king still sat on the throne, holding his heavy head, and looked at the joyous crowd below, with a smile on his face.
The priest of the empire, who was standing behind the king, was in a way, like a servant, but ...... What's more, it's like an existence above the throne.
As if strolling leisurely, Lan Yuan walked lightly past the crowd until, he saw two familiar people—Princess Helen, and Queen Moon Song.
"Her Royal Highness. At the moment when everyone else seemed to be blinded, Lan Yuan walked in slightly, quietly saluted, and then looked at the princess next to him.
"Count. The princess nodded, and then, on the sidelines, enjoyed the food and laughter of the feast.
Walking through the crowd and looking at the huge palace, Lan Yuan was unmoved, until he came to a corner of the wall where no one would notice, an old man with a dirty and missing leg was sitting there, looking at Lan Yuan, who no one could see, his cloudy eyes showed a hint of a smile.
"Father. ”
