Chapter Forty-Eight: Dancing Together
Rod and Alyssa walked out of the camp tent, after absorbing the magic power, Alyssa did not change her makeup, she was still full of royal sister's temperament, and the general who was responsible for cleaning up the battlefield stood outside the camp tent with a face full of discomfort, and when she saw Alyssa's appearance, there seemed to be a dim light in her eyes that some kind of purity was shattered, and Rod smiled and pretended not to see it.
The general adjusted his mood and bowed respectfully to Alyssa: "This time, thanks to Alyssa's manpower to turn the tide, we can prevent the bandits from taking advantage of the situation to grow, and this official will definitely report the credit of Alyssa truthfully." ”
The general did not force Elisa to stay, only when there was no such thing as being forcibly conscripted, and pushed the credit to Elisa this time, and now that the two main responsible persons died, the only person who could take credit for the credit was currently Alyssa, of course he would not obstruct it with temporary conscription, otherwise the king would not be able to live on face, after all, it was after the king sent a letter that the kingdom army would be completely destroyed.
To put it simply, Nice died in vain, because this matter involved the king's letter, even if it was for the sake of the king's face, it was not easy for the family behind Nice to hold on to this matter, otherwise the king would probably be displeased.
Alyssa nodded in understanding, and the general drove to the mine with the rest of the transports and personnel carriers that carried a small number of the remaining chariots from the camp and the troop carriers carrying the remaining soldiers of the camp.
After the general left, Ciel took out a letter from his arms: "Miss, the nobles of Panshan City are grateful for the elimination of the harm of the young lady, and want to invite the young lady to a banquet tonight, and the other party's convoy is waiting outside the camp." ”
Alyssa opened the letter and remembered the content after a few glances: "Hmph, I don't think about how to solve it when something happens, and I only think about finding a way to excuse it after the matter is resolved, these lazy, cheating and slippery guys are simply a disgrace to the nobility, don't go!" ”
Alyssa raised her eyebrows, undisguised her dislike for these nobles, as a fiefdom noble, she naturally disliked these righteous nobles who did not have fiefs and hereditary rights, especially the selfish and evil behavior of these people, which made Elisa feel extremely disgusted, and most of the reason why the commoners resisted, disgusted and feared the nobles was the fault of these nobles.
Alyssa's emotions were seen by Rhodes, and she didn't let go, disgust and anger did exist, but they were not as explicit as she really showed.
Nice's family is the Zhengzhi aristocracy, although it is a very strong middle-level nobleman in the royal capital, but in fact there is no fief and hereditary rights, all relying on each generation can be appreciated by the king, and then become an official knight, there is a feeling of Zhengzhi family, and their influence on the local aristocracy is limited to those nobles who also have no fief and hereditary rights.
These nobles are similar to the ancient officials in the previous life, they obtained official positions through channels similar to scientific examinations, and they could also obtain knighthoods after meritorious service.
After three generations of kings under the guidance of the Sartre Kingdom, the fiefdom aristocracy has become incompatible with these rising nobles, at least on the surface.
It is also for this reason that Elisa, who is a descendant of the nobles of the fiefdom, will be disdainful of Nice, and Nice will be very disgusted with Alyssa, except for the reason of other people's children, the positions of the two are naturally on both sides.
In Rod's understanding, this is obviously a method under the king's rule, and Alyssa obviously knows this reason, and when there are people around her, she behaves much more explicitly, in order to make her stand out.
Alyssa casually threw away the letter in her hand, and Ciel had already expected to catch it, and then handed over the second letter: "Miss, this is an invitation from the lord of Panshan City, and a city-wide feast will be held in Panshan City tonight to celebrate the success of the bandits." ”
The highest governor of the city or province within the establishment of the Sartre kingdom is all nobles who have no territory and inheritance rights, that is, the righteous nobles that Alyssa hates.
If it was usual, Alyssa would not hesitate to dismiss it, but this banquet was very well-reasoned, to celebrate the suppression of bandits, and it was a city-wide feast. In other words, this is no longer a private banquet, and if Alyssa does not go, she will be put on the hat of self-esteem.
"I'll go to this banquet, but you go and tell them that the bandits have just ended, and it's not suitable to work the people and hurt money, so I received the kindness of the City Lord's Mansion, and tonight I will have fun with the people, and dance with the people in the Bangshan City Square, so I won't go to the City Lord's Mansion."
Alyssa's answer is very clear, the big matter of suppressing bandits involves the people, and I should attend the banquet, but I am attending the banquet of the common people, not the banquet of the nobles of the city lord's mansion.
Xi'er rejected the city lord's attendants, Xu had never encountered such a thing, the city lord's invitation dared to refuse, he was stunned for a few seconds before he came back to his senses, his face was first filled with anger, and when he was about to scold, he was reminded by his companion in time, and then he shook his hand and left with an ugly face.
The other noble attendants didn't have such a good temper, Xu didn't know Alyssa's identity at all, and snorted coldly, not only was his tone extremely dissatisfied, but the gifts he originally brought were also waved by him, and he drove back to Bangshan City with the car, leaving only the dust fluttering in the sky.
The behavior of the two attendants was seen by Rhodes, and Sir's calmness instantly became tall, this is probably the difference in heritage, these suddenly rising nobles are far less profound than the fiefdom nobles, even if they are the staples of the city lord.
Alyssa was not affected in any way, and looked back at Rod with a smile: "I wonder if Mr. Rhodes has Yaxing to attend the banquet as my male companion?" ”
Rod bowed jokingly and said, "Of course, it is my honor to receive Miss Alyssa's invitation. ”
Rhodes released his magic power, the magic wings spread behind him, and the magic control runes faintly flashed, driving him to fly into the air, and the total amount of S-level mana allowed Rod to gain the ability to fly at low altitudes, and he was not afraid of mana loss at all.
"Have I had the pleasure of having Miss Alyssa with me?"
Alyssa's eyes sparkled as she looked at the flying Rod, further cementing her desire to learn the magic control runes.
Sil stooped down and got into the car and went back to the city first.
The time soon arrived that evening, and the two of them also prepared their banquet costumes, which were not tall and elegant.
Alyssa's dress made Rod's eyes shine, the long golden hair was naturally draped behind him, and the two strands of blonde hair that circled and fell naturally covered the curve of his cheeks, and his face became square, suddenly showing a different intellectuality and seriousness from charm.
At this time, Alyssa is more like a strict senior sister, or a female teacher with a strict style of study, and it is more in line with the image of a female general who has returned from suppressing bandits, at least it will not make people feel like they are seeing Su Daji.
Rhodes, who returned to Pangshan City, found that the people of the city had an indescribable joy, and it seemed that everyone knew Elisa, and Elisa, who appeared in the square of Pangshan City, was warmly welcomed by the people of the city, and Rhodes even found that there were reporters in the distance.
After dancing with Elisa, the whole city let out a huge cheer, and everyone danced together, without the elegance of Rod and Elisa, but could not stop the joy of the whole city, and quietly, Rode's energy increased by 200 points.
The two glanced at each other, both saw the meaning in each other's eyes, quietly avoided the besieging reporters, and the two returned to the hotel, and then found out on the TV in the hotel lobby that the regional television station was broadcasting the news of the success of the bandits, and mentioned Alyssa's merits lightly, and the dead general and Nice were crossed.
