Chapter 34: The Auction (7)

"Bang~" The golden wine glass flew out of Rolf's hand, hit the wall and bounced off the carpet, ignoring the fact that the valuable wine glass had been deformed, and stepping barefoot on the carpet that was a little sticky with wine, Rolf kept walking back and forth, and let out a low roar like a wounded beast

"Damn, I know, it must be that pretentious hillbilly, that old Lancaster thing seems really confused, and he should be so admired and believed! Go, I order you, get out of here now, and make that hillbilly give up this bid! ”

Seeing that the two guards at the door were about to go out, Pei Lan next to him hurriedly stopped him, "Your Highness, don't, the Lancaster family is not an existence that can be easily offended, if you really tear your face, I'm afraid it will cause you a lot of trouble......"

"Are you teaching me a lesson, Perrin?" Rolf's temples were bruised, his fists clenched, and he looked at his subordinates and male pets with a hideous face......

"I beg your pardon for the offense in my tone, Your Highness, if you agree, I can go and see His Excellency the Duke in person, so that he will surely understand your thoughts, and it may be better for him to persuade that person."

Rolf, who calmed down a little after hearing this, also knew that what Perrin said was right, if he really let the guards rush into the Lancaster family's box like this, I am afraid it would cause extremely unfavorable consequences for himself

At worst, his father could only allow himself to accept some degree of punishment, and at worst, Lancaster and their allies, the great nobles who had long been dissatisfied with the Empire, in the event of an impeachment of themselves in the House of Lords......

Thinking of this, Rolf couldn't help but shudder, although he was a prince, he was also jealous of the power of the House of Nobles, which was why he was very extreme against the excessive power of the nobles

Nodding, Rolf said to Perrin "Okay, you go over and hope that hillbilly knows some humility and doesn't make me angry again"

Watching Perrin bow down and leave, Rolf grabbed the hair of the trembling maid leaning against the wall, slammed it to the ground, and roared, "Slut, get me another drink, and get out there and have this place cleaned again......"

**********************

Picking up a piece of apple and stuffing it into his mouth, the sour taste made Leo like it very much, and the chaotic scene below slowly returned to order, but before there was no new offer, Rebecca could only wait quietly like everyone else

Through the previous Duke's explanation, Leo also understood that whenever a box guest made a bid, the auction house always set aside a lot of time for these top people to decide

Maybe it's not fair to the people below, but in this era of supremacy of rights, paying attention to fairness is the most unfair thing for the higher-ups......

Comfortably swallowing the flesh in his mouth, Leo complained to the duke with some dissatisfaction

"I don't understand, it's been almost 10 minutes, and since there are no new bids from Rolf's side, the final auction results should be announced now, are they going to wait indefinitely?"

Before they could answer, the heavy door was opened through a crack from the outside, and a maid waiting outside first owed a debt to the duke's butler at the door, and then whispered a few words

Nodding, the butler waited for him to go out, walked quickly to the duke's side, and reported in a voice that everyone could hear

"My lord, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, I have sent someone to visit you...... Well, there are a few other adults."

"Oh?" After a few seconds of simple thought, the Duke of Lancaster immediately understood what was going on, and pointed at Leo with a smile

"Leo, I'm afraid this is the trouble you have caused, our esteemed Highness must be a little unbearable, and you want me to put pressure on you to give up this auction."

Putting down the fork and taking the handkerchief handed over by Elena, who had already quietly done it to Leo's side, Leo wiped his hands, and asked with the same smile, "So, will you do this, Your Excellency?" ”

Glancing at Elena beside Leo, the Duke imperceptibly flashed a hint of doting and spoke

"No, of course I won't do that, dear Leo, the sanctity of the auction must be guaranteed, and it cannot be changed at will by some people who hold their own status, of course, it is better for us to ask His Highness's messenger to come in and inquire first."

After receiving the master's signal, the duke's butler opened the door of the box with his own hands, and bowed slightly to Peilan, who was dressed in a red dress, "Please come in, Your Excellency, my master is waiting for you......"

Carefully tidying up his clothes again, although Perrin had an arrogant face towards Leo at the beginning, he still didn't dare to be a little careless when facing the Duke of Lancaster

As a nobleman of the imperial capital, he knew very well how powerful this old man who had been smiling all day long, and walked in with standard steps, and Perrin bowed deeply to the duke who was looking at him

"Good day, Your Excellency the Duke, I bring greetings from His Royal Highness the Second Prince, it is really a great honor to meet you!"

Raising his head, Perrin's eyes quickly swept over the spacious box, in his mind, the incompetent Antonis and the somewhat restrained Professor Pericles were the first to be ignored, but it was the presence of the Marquis of Auston that surprised him slightly, I don't know if this means that the Merovingians and the Duke have reached some agreement

When he saw Leo and Elena leaning against him with a gentle face, Perrin's face changed several times in a row, and finally he still bowed slightly

"Dear Marquis, I didn't expect to see you here, please forgive me for my negligence, as for you...... Leo, my lord, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding last time."

"Okay Marquis, I'm old, and sometimes I don't like those hypocritical politeness among nobles, what's the matter with Your Highness letting you come over?" Frowning and looking at Pei Lan, the duke interrupted somewhat impatiently, as a traditional nobleman, he didn't have any good feelings for a character like Pei Lan in his heart.

"Of course, I'm sorry Your Excellency" Hearing this, Pei Lan could only give up his polite intentions and said directly

"Well, that's the case, Your Highness wants to get this manor in the auction for some reason, but as a member of the royal family, it is difficult for His Highness to come up with more gold coins, so he ......"

Glancing at Leo, who seemed to have nothing to do with himself, the Duke of Lancaster put down his wine glass, without the slightest intention of letting Perrin sit down, and shook his head, "Is there a reason...... Can I know what it is? ”

After a few seconds of hesitation, Perrin glanced at Elena and told the truth

"As you know, Your Highness has long had a soft spot for your granddaughter, the beautiful Miss Elena, and in order to express his incomparable affection, His Highness wants to buy this secluded manor as a gift to Miss Elena, and of course, if you can get your blessing, I think Your Highness will be very pleased and happy......"

"Shut up!" No man could tolerate a woman pursuing him in front of him, but Leo was just about to stand up to express his displeasure when he was soothed by a palm on his shoulder

Standing up, Elena smiled sweetly at Leo, then turned her head to look at Perrin with a frosty expression

"Go back and tell your master that I, Elena de Lancaster, have never and will never accept anything or pursuit from Rolf, and that his cruelty, meanness, treachery, and meanness have weary of me, so let your 'upright' Highness utterly die of this heart."

Elena's determination surprised Leo, who had never seen her angry, but of course he wouldn't hide behind his woman, so he naturally hugged the slender waist beside him, and comforted the red-faced girl softly, and then didn't bother to talk nonsense with Perrin again

"If you don't have a hearing problem, go back and tell Rolf that Elena is my woman, even if he is a prince, I will not tolerate his provocation again, and besides, if he still wants to compete, then I will wait for him, and that's it...... Finn, please Viscount out, he's not welcome here......"
