Chapter 274: Engagement Ceremony (Asking for a Monthly Pass, Asking for a Subscription)
After training the central minister, Lance left the palace, she has a happy event to participate in today, so she has to leave the palace quickly, anyway, staying in the palace can't solve the problem of Aylward City immediately, so it's better to go out for a walk, and relax.
As for the problem of Aylward City, naturally there are central ministers to find a way, otherwise what's the use of raising these ministers?
This is also the political wisdom that Her Majesty taught Lance, as a ruler, you don't need to do everything yourself, just grasp the overall situation, and the specific things have to be done by the people below, otherwise why do you think the queen can disappear from time to time?
Besides, today is a special day, related to the happiness of her best friend, and Lance definitely wants to participate.
"I said, can you hurry up, the time is almost up, how are you like a woman, ink and ink!" Lance looked at Solam, who was still getting dressed in front of her, and hurriedly urged.
"......, am I to blame? You didn't give me a single notice, and you suddenly ran over to tell me that you wanted me to accompany you to the engagement ceremony, and I wasn't prepared at all, which is also my fault? ”
Solam was dressed for the maid's service as he complained about Lance's pretensions. Originally, Solam was still reading books at home with nothing to do to pass the time, but Lance suddenly broke in, and without saying a word, he asked Soram to quickly change his clothes and accompany her to an engagement ceremony.
"Of course you blame you! Who told you not to prepare in advance, this is my best friend's engagement ceremony! You didn't even prepare at all! Don't blame you, who do you blame? ”
"Hello girlfriend engaged? Christie is actually engaged? Have you finally figured it out? Don't harm others? As soon as Soram heard that it was Lance's best friend who was engaged, he immediately thought of Christie.
This surprised Soram, Christie was actually engaged? What's even more terrifying is that Lance still has the heart to attend her engagement ceremony? This is so unscientific.
I'm afraid, I'm afraid, Lance is going to make trouble, thinking of this, Solam hesitated in his heart, or don't follow, if Lansi really makes trouble, Soram himself won't be embarrassed at that time?
"What a mess! I'm very good with Christie, how could she get engaged to someone else? You've got a bad brain, right? Christie is destined to be with me! As soon as Soram thought that Christie was going to get engaged, Lance immediately blew up like a cat with her tail stepped on.
However, after the frying was finished, Lance suddenly heard the problem.
"I'm talking about Yacos and Corinna! Didn't you get the invitation? No, you know them too, they won't have to invite you, right? ”
"Yakos and Corinna? Are they getting engaged? I haven't really heard of it. When he heard the names Yakos and Corinna, he immediately remembered the couple with the cutest height difference, and he didn't have a deep impression of Corinna, but he still had a little impression of Yakos, and he thought this person was good.
"Well, Master Ram, the housekeeper Miss Lucy mentioned it to you last time, and I also showed you the invitation......"
At this time, a maid who helped Soram dress timidly said that she was on the side at the time, but Solam didn't care about it at that time, and she didn't even bother to look at the invitation, so she threw it aside.
"Well, there's anything else going on? Well.... I think about it, don't say, you reminded me, I really remember that there was such a thing. ”
"What? Ram, you've gone too far! Why do you say that they are also your friends, you are so careless? ”
Solam was said by Lance, but he didn't feel anything, he and these two people met a few times, and they all met a few times in a hurry when they were recuperating from their injuries, it would be good to have a little impression, if they were friends, Solam really didn't think about it, if Lance didn't talk about it this time, it is estimated that Solam would not have remembered these two people for a while.
But these words, there is no need to say these words in front of Lance, no matter how you say it, these two are Lance's friends, and they want to give her some face.
Actually, it's not all Solam's fault, it's true that since Soram returned to the villa from the palace, too many people have invited him to some parties. Although most of the nobles in Silvermoon City still hate Solam.
But this did not prevent them from wanting to befriend Soram, after all, the relationship between Soram and the royal family can be seen by everyone, Soram not only lived in the palace for a few months, but then he came and went as if the palace was his own home. What's more, the queen and princess also have frequent contacts with Solam.
Therefore, many nobles hope to catch up with the queen and princess through Solam, so during this time, many nobles want to invite Solam to participate in various activities. However, Soram has never had much interest in this kind of thing, so he basically rejected all invitations.
Later, he wasn't even interested in hearing about it, and Arcos and Corinna only mentioned it because the butler, Miss Lucy, knew that they knew Solam, but Soram didn't care about it at the time.
"Didn't I be busy with the "Thunder Teeth" thing a few days ago, I didn't pay attention to it at the time. ”
Thunder Fang is the electromagnetic rifle made by Solam, and the name is full of orc style, anyway, it's not a tooth, it's a claw. Solam didn't care much about that, and what the name should be so nice didn't mean anything at all.
"Humph! You're really, it's so unreliable to ignore such an important thing. ”
"That's what I said, it's very important, but does it have anything to do with me? They're engaged, it's my! This was what Soram said in his heart, but Soram was not so stupid and said it directly. But the silent man had the maids help him put on his gown.
This time, the dress did not shine like last time, but a very low-key knight's suit, anyway, it was someone else's engagement ceremony, and someone else Yakos was the protagonist, if he wore it too brilliantly, it would be noisy, so it didn't matter if he was low-key.
In the evening, Soram and the others arrived at the ceremonial venue, which was actually Yakos's house.
When the princess appeared at the ceremony with Solam, Yakos's father, Max hurriedly brought Yakos to greet her, and Her Royal Highness the princess needless to say, being able to come gave their family a lot of face.
And Solam's arrival also caused a small commotion, the news in the aristocratic circle spread the fastest, about Soram's dislike to participate in party activities, basically all the nobles knew, I didn't expect him to appear today, which really gave Yakos a lot of face.
You know, the princess will be there, almost everyone knows about this kind of thing, after all, she and Corinna have such a good relationship. Therefore, although the nobles present were envious of the arrival of the princess, they were not surprised.
But Solam's arrival was surprising enough, you know, Soram had been in Silvermoon City for a year, but he had attended a banquet once, and he hadn't participated in any such events since.
Many of the nobles in Silvermoon City have invited Solam, but none of them have been able to invite him, including some of the most prominent families.
At this time, several members of the Campbell family in the crowd had ugly faces. Just two months ago, at the birthday party of old Totcam, the Campbell family wanted to show the family's pomp, after all, this year, the Campbell family has shown a bit of decline.
In order to save a little face, so I hope that Soram can bring the princess to this banquet, and the old man even went out in person, found Mavis and personally sent an invitation, hoping that Soram must be present with the princess.
But Mavis didn't tell Solam about this at all, she didn't want those people in the family to have any more ideas about Solam, after all, what they did last time made Mavis almost angry, and these people actually used Soram for their own benefit, which made Mavis feel disgusted.
So naturally, neither Soram nor the princess were present, and even Mavis only showed up for a short time before leaving directly, if it weren't for Totcam being her own father, Mavis wouldn't even have the desire to attend.
This made the Campbell family angry half to death, they didn't think about their own problems, they just felt that Solam and Mavis were too unkind and ungrateful, and they didn't even give this little face.
This still makes some sense to Mavis, but it is a bit wronged for Solam, who has nothing to do with the Campbell family, so how can he be ungrateful.
But the people of the Campbell family don't see it that way, they always feel that a large part of the credit for Solam's favor by the queen is their Campbell family, and even many people in the Campbell family think that if it weren't for Mavis's partiality, they would be favored by the queen.
...... Sometimes, the self-righteousness of those aristocrats is so unreasonable.
But fortunately, Solam basically doesn't sell anyone's face, not just the Campbell family, so although the Campbell family is unhappy, they have a comfort, not too embarrassing.
But today, Solam came to Yacos and Corinna's engagement ceremony, which made the face of the Campbell family completely fall to the ground, he didn't participate in your old man's birthday party, but he came to the engagement ceremony of the two children, and this is just an engagement ceremony!
In the customs of the Northland, although the engagement is important, it is really not a very formal ceremony, so it is not grand, I didn't see the people who came to participate today, most of them are the younger generation?
As for the birthday party of old Totcam, the old man is already in his 60s, and his birthday is less than one birthday, which is much more important than any engagement, and many heads of the family have gone at that time.
The comparison of these two compartments does not mean that in Solam's eyes, the Campbell family is not as important as the two juniors? How could the members of the Campbell family not be angry.
