Since Marina had only invited Sinloth, it was naturally inconvenient for Rosa to join her. After lingering a little longer, Lady Rosa took her daughter and left. Like Sinloth, she naturally has a lot to do when she comes to Rennes.

And Sinloth prepared in the hotel for a while, and after admonishing Ellie a few words by the way, he headed for the governor's palace.

At the beginning of the lanterns, the carriage with the crest of the eagle and the snake slowly stopped in front of the governor's palace. When the carriage came to a stop, the shrewd and capable butler immediately stepped out of the carriage and opened the carriage for the master.

The newly-dressed earl took his daughter's little hand and got out of the carriage.

No matter what the other party's intentions were, since they all gave the invitation decently, then Xinluo naturally had to return the corresponding respect. Dressed in a mess to attend someone's official invitation, there is really no more reason to explain it than being brain-dead and deliberately finding fault.

And it is also necessary to attend the ball on time - in addition to the main character in the novel, what is the difference between not attending someone's invitation on time and slapping someone in the face in public, it is better to refuse it outright.

"Ellie, don't be nervous."

It's not like Ellie hasn't attended a ball with Sinloth before, but this time it's still a private ball compared to the last time in Dublin, but it's a lot more serious than it is unintentionally - it's the Governor's daughter, after all. I don't know if she is as easy to talk to Lady Rosa, and it is understandable that her daughter is a little flustered.

Everyone has a first time, and Aili's identity has long been destined for her to be ordinary. At this time, Xinluo didn't have much to do except comfort her a little.

The Count waited for a while, until his daughter's mood calmed down, and then took her little hand and walked towards the brightly lit governor's palace.

……

Since it was a ball, it was naturally impossible to invite only the father and daughter of Fanzhuo. In fact, when Sinloth got out of the car, he found that in addition to himself, there were many carriages parked outside the governor's palace. Obviously, these were the guests who had come to the ball.

But just as Claude handed the invitation to the guard in front of the Governor's Palace, the father and daughter wanted to be like the other guests. When he entered the governor's palace, he was stopped by the guards.

"What, there's a problem with my invitation?"

According to Claude, the invitation was personally sent by someone from the Doge's Palace. And the housekeeper has also verified the authenticity of the invitation many times in advance. At least in his experience, there is no problem.

"Sir, I misunderstood, it's not what you imagined."

Dressed in light armor and holding the hilt of his sword, the man who appeared to be the leader of the guard motioned for the other guests to continue their passage. He said softly, "There is nothing wrong with Mr. Fandro's invitation, but Miss Marina would like to be able to see you alone before the ball begins." ”

Although the leader in front of her was wearing a full-coverage helmet, her face was completely obscured. But the cold voice with a hint of hoarseness still revealed her true identity.

It's rare to be a female leader.

Since he was invited to the ball, the two were bound to meet. If that's the case, then why meet him in advance? In Xinluos's heart, he couldn't help but feel a little interested in this Doge's daughter.

"In that case, please bring it."

……

Aggressive......

The leader of the guards knocked on the door in front of him. After a soft response from a female voice came from inside, she gently pushed open the door and walked in with the curious father and daughter.

The leader of the guards was very polite when he spoke, but his tone was very cold, and when he brought it, he was even more silent, like an iceberg.

Although it is the Governor's Palace, Governor Allen is not the kind of person who likes flashiness. Governor Allen, who spent a long time in the Imperial ** team when he was young, was more like a soldier, and correspondingly, the furnishings in the Governor's Palace were relatively low-key. Everything is practical.

The old but newly decorated Doge's Palace was not furnished with much furnishings, except for candles for lighting, only a few decorative weapons and armor. It's just a hint of coldness on the armor, silently telling everyone. They're not flower stands, they're real people who can kill people at any time.

The room in front of me was clearly someone's study, and there was nothing special in it except for a few large bookshelves. Two young men, a man and a woman, were quietly reading books inside, and it was not until the leader of the guards spoke up that he raised his head.

"Miss. Lord Fanzhuo has arrived. ”

"Thank you, Gnaina." The girl put down the book in her hand, smiled and nodded to the head of the guards, and then said, "I have something I want to talk to Mr. Fanzhuo about next, you go and get busy with yours." ”

Sinlos noticed that the paper of the book in the aristocratic girl's hand was pure and immaculate, and that it was the white paper from Desmond.

"Yes, miss."

Geneina tapped her breastplate, then closed the door and withdrew. Seeing the iceberg-like woman leave the room, Sinlos looked back at the two young men in the room.

The young man is handsome and handsome, with a strong bookish atmosphere, giving people a sense of elegance. The woman wore a long drag skirt with a supple green silk hanging down her back, and there was no whitewash on her face. Still, the woman is amazing.

Well, already very close to Mariana, just a little bit worse than her...... Just a little.

……

Obviously, the two young men in front of him were the daughters of Governor Allen. After introducing themselves to each other, and by the way, saying some hypocritical polite words such as long-admiring and long-admiring, a few people sat down.

Ellie looked a little nervous, but the usual etiquette training finally paid off at this point. It's not as brazen as Daddy, but it's decent - as evidenced by Marina's slight nod.

After sitting down, the atmosphere in the study seemed to be a little more relaxed. Except for Ellie, who was still a little nervous, a young man just started chatting.

Sinloth initially tried to draw the conversation back to Ellie, but the two didn't say anything other than politely agree. And the earl, who vaguely understood that he had guessed wrong, no longer tried to guide the topic, but followed the two of them and talked ramblingly.

To be honest, the Count really didn't know much about these two young men who seemed to be his age. And the other party's sudden invitation to himself also made the Count really unsure of their thoughts. Therefore, he became extremely cautious in his speech, and refused to reveal anything too much. And the man named Yi spoke little. Most of the time, it was Marina who was talking alone. Fortunately, the Governor's daughter is well versed in the art of speech, and the atmosphere is very harmonious for a while, so as not to look too awkward.

At this moment, an incomparably faint wave of magic power spread out in the study. Marina, who was smiling and talking about something, suddenly froze. Abruptly stopped. And Yi also seemed to feel something, and when Marina stopped, he said as if unintentionally.

“…… Monsieur Van Zhuo was such an interesting man, having become an earl at such a young age. Like me and Marina, we can only be in the shadow of our father. Enjoy some of the relics. But from the royal capital of Constantine, once you arrived in remote Britannia, did you feel dissatisfied? ”

It's a deep conversation, Yi.

If you want to say dissatisfied, normal people must be dissatisfied. The kings of the anointed lands were sent to Desmond in the countryside, and from the corner of the nobility, it was no different from the distribution. But this is an order from His Majesty the Emperor, and if he says he is dissatisfied, is he dissatisfied with His Majesty the Emperor?

To say that you are satisfied is to be hypocritical.

Judging by the performance just now. Yi should be the kind of person who is more stable and will not easily open his mouth to offend people. But his current problem is very acute, and it is easy to cause embarrassment not to mention the other party, and if it is more serious, it will even directly be evil.

Was it that spell fluctuation just now?

Sinloth looked at the place where the magic rippled out, but there was nothing but a slightly antique oil painting. And with Sinloth's magic level, there is nothing unusual about the oil painting for the time being.

But the question of the governor must be answered. Looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Xinlos thought quickly in his mind, and after a while, he slowly replied, "People don't know. I can't predict it. The fate of a person, of course, depends on self-struggle, but it also has to take into account the historical itinerary, I absolutely do not know. How could I, as a native of the royal capital, go to Britania and Ireland to be a baron? ”

"So His Majesty the Emperor spoke to me and said that the Senate had decided to make you Baron Desmond, and I wanted to refuse at first. I'm really not humble. How did I, a Constantinople, come to Ireland? However, His Majesty the Emperor said that the Senate had already studied and decided, so I read two poems later, so I went to Ireland. ”

"After all, if the country lives and dies for profit, how can it be avoided because of misfortune and fortune? The empire needed me, and I came. ”

Ancient poems translated into the imperial Chinese language instantly became extremely strange. I don't know how the two young people understood these two sentences, but although their faces became extremely subtle, they never said anything.

Looks like it's been mixed up?

"What an interesting man, Mr. Fanzo." Yi coughed lightly twice, which eased the strange atmosphere in the study. Yi didn't seem to expect Sinlos to answer like this, but despite this, he continued to ask, "Mr. Fanzhuo must have learned a lot from supporting Desmond alone, right?" I wonder if you can share it with me? I'm ashamed to say that I've been an adult for a long time, but my father hasn't put me back in his fiefdom. Now my father is old...... I want to gain a little more experience, and hopefully when I get to the fiefdom, I won't mess up everything. ”

Is that what Marina invited herself for?

Truth be told, there are no small things in territory. People's hearts are always greedy, and no matter how loyal a vassal is, he always has his own demands. And in the process of controlling, how to grasp the ruler is something that every lord must learn.

According to Yi, it's because he's about to go to the fiefdom, but he doesn't have much experience. Young people have high status, but they are thin-skinned and do not want to consult those old people. And Sinlos, who is also young, but has a lot of experience, does seem to be a good candidate.

At the very least, Sinloth thought he had found the truth about his invitation. No wonder as soon as he arrived in Rennes, the other party invited him in a hurry. No wonder he was invited to the ball, but he was dragged to the study first.

Yi, you're still young.

So that's it...... But it's understandable. It's just that in terms of words, it is better to be more relaxed.

"When I arrived in Desmond, I didn't have anything else to do for a year, probably just a thing." Sinloth said, holding up a finger of his own, "...... Of course, there are some minor ones. But my main thing is this, and I am ashamed, so I did a little bit of work. ”

Looking at the eloquent Xinluos, Yi Ruo realized.

……

After a few more conversations, feeling a slight tremor from the oil painting in her field of vision, Marina interrupted her brother's continued speech during the pause. She opened the door and motioned for Sinloth to get up.

"It's getting late, and the dance is about to begin. I'll talk about that later...... Then brother, let's go first. ”

The Count hurriedly pulled the bored Ellie to her feet, bowed to Yi Weiwei, and exited the study.

Imer was silent, his mind recalling Sinloth's words. After a long time, he looked at the painting and asked, "Uncle Conrad, what do you think of his answer?" ”

The painting shuddered, revealing the old face of the Governor of Shinra.

"Hmph, little slippery ......" (To be continued.) )

PS: Gnaina's CV is Kuwajima method, not much else...... Unfortunately, her line is hopeless......
