Standing outside the palace, people kept greeting Starr and Mei Ling, and the couple also returned the salute with a smile. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

While greeting each other, the three of them also entered the palace.

The palace is undoubtedly much more lively than outside, although the banquet has not officially begun, but everyone has formed a small circle to chat.

Starr didn't go into any circles, he just stood in a secluded position with his wife and daughter.

Picking up a bottle of wine that was on the table, opening the lid, Starta took a glass, poured half a glass, and drank.

"Not bad" took a sip of wine, and Start praised: "Although I am very unhappy with this imperial capital, I have to admit that the wine in the imperial capital is the best."

"Since the wine in the imperial capital is delicious, then come to the imperial capital often" As soon as Star's voice fell, another voice sounded, and the owner of the voice was an old man with gray hair, who was walking over slowly.

"Forget it, Costin, I like good wine, but I hate it even more," Starr said in an unusually familiar tone, putting down his glass and bottle at the sight of the white-haired old man.

The white-haired old man Costin shook his head and smiled: "You are really careful."

"No way, natural, can't change" Sta shrugged.

Kostin smiled when he heard Stara say this, he looked at Mei Ling and Arthur, and nodded at Mei Ling: "Mrs. Mei Ling, you are still in style."

"Thank you for the compliment, Duke Costin," Mei Ling replied politely and with a little rustiness.

"Presumably this is your daughter," Costin looked at Arthur again.

"That's right, this is my precious daughter, Arthur Lanro," Starr said proudly.

"It's better to be blue," Costin said with amazement, even an old man like him was amazed by Arthur's beauty.

"Of course," Starr laughed proudly.

Arthur looked at the old man named Costin, this old man Arthur didn't know, but judging by his appearance with Star, it was estimated that he knew each other very well.

After chatting with Stara for a while, Costin also left, and Star, watching the old man leave, sighed, "Time flies, ma'am."

"Indeed," Mei Ling said, "I remember that the last time you and he saw each other was fifteen years ago."

"Fifteen years" Starr seemed to remember something, and sighed: "Time is really a pig-killing knife, and a handsome middle-aged man has been turned into an old man"

"Father, look at you, I know him very well," Arthur said after waiting for Starta to finish sighing.

"It's very familiar" Starr nodded: "I heard your mother just now, it was a duke, and I was friends when I was a child, but the more I grew up, the more estranged I became"

When he was a child, Arthur couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this sentence in Star's words, you must know that Starr is only in his fifties this year, and that duke is Star's friend when he was a child, so he is the same age as Star, at most a few years older, how can he be so old, which makes Arthur curious and asks: "Father, how old is that duke"

"Fifty only, just like me" Start laughed, "How about not believing it, obviously only fifty years old and so old"

"I really don't believe it," Arthur remembered the old duke's appearance, which was fifty years old, and looked like he was seventy years old.

Stara smiled disdainfully: "Among the nobles of my generation, except for me, a legend and a few people who don't like power, are still young, most of them are like that guy, they are all old like that in their fifties, these guys love power and don't want to die, and they have overdrawn their lives for power, so it's not a good thing to say that power."

Power is indeed not a good thing, for this, Arthur also very much agreed, when on the earth, many people used power as a kind of drug, although you enjoy supreme pleasure, but as a price also continue to take away your life, feelings, and even family.

"So, Arthur, don't be fooled by power in the future, I don't want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person" Starr patted Arthur on the shoulder, his tone a little meaningful.

"Star, don't say such things" Mei Ling was a little unhappy at this time, she glared at Star: "What kind of black-haired person sends a white-haired person, if there is really such a day, I will slap you to death this crow's mouth"

Arthur smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Mother, there won't be that day, I will support you in your old age."

"I don't need to care for the elderly, I don't want you to disturb the world between me and your mother, you just help us to send it to the end" Stara said with a smile, when it comes to sending himself to the end, he still looks normal, and he is not a little sad.

Mei Ling glared at Starr again: "Say some unlucky things again, and besides, I don't want to live a two-person world with you, I still have to hug my grandson."

"That's right, I'm actually done with this stubble" Stara patted his head: "It seems that the world of two people can't be passed, but it's not bad to have a grandson to hug, Arthur, you are also an adult, do you have someone you like?"

Star's question, Mei Ling also cast an inquiring look.

"Not yet," Arthur replied, she didn't think she would have anything to like in her life, after all, how could she like people in her current status.

"Yes," Starr said, "Arthur, if you have someone you like, just say it, don't worry about what the family is right about, our family can't do this, you say yes, ma'am"

"That's right," Mei Ling said.

"I really don't, father, mother" Arthur was a little crying and laughing, what is this, what is it, what is right, if she likes someone, she will not care what his identity is, and she will not care about anything because of other people's opposition.

"It's really not" Starr saw that Arthur was like this and said no, probably not, and smiled at this time: "It's okay if there is no, in fact, I still don't want Arthur to have someone you like when you're so old"

"You're contradicting yourself, father," Arthur laughed.

Stara said helplessly: "No way, who made you my daughter, can you not be contradictory, if Arthur you are a son, I will not be so contradictory"

"I'm really sorry that I'm not your son" Arthur glanced at Star, and then sneered, "But you can have another one with your mother"

"What do you say, Arthur," Mei Ling snapped and slapped Arthur's head hard.

"I'm telling the truth," Touching his head, Arthur said, "Actually, with my mother's current body and appearance, it's no problem to have another one, and age is not a problem at all."

"yes, yes," Starr cheekily agreed.

Mei Ling glared at the father and daughter, and snorted, "Don't even think about it" (to be continued.) )
