Chapter 686: Prom

Moonlight Island hosts countless dance parties every day. I don't know how many businesses, from the beginning of the search for partners to the final deal, are carried out on such occasions.

Edward also had a lot of experience in throwing balls, and he held drinks and balls as many times as he ate every day.

The manor is lit up early in the morning, and the men and maids are busy preparing all kinds of fine wines and delicacies.

The squires and nobles on Moonlight Island, all kinds of characters arrived early in the morning with their children, and for a while there were some clothes and sideburns, and the style of the imperial capital was full of red and wine.

Although Edward is the host, he is noble, and there are few guests worthy of his personal welcome, and at this time he is standing by the window with his friend Daven to admire the birds outside the window, and his eyes are slipping out, while talking to his friend with a little attention.

"Devon, dear friend, it's been seven years since you went to Tiandao, how is it now?"

Tiandao is adjacent to the imperial capital, there are many warlocks on it, usually talented young men and women will go to Tiandao to try their luck, in case of good luck, they may worship a famous teacher and become a professional warlock, but most of them have no such luck, mix around in Tiandao for a year or two, learn a little trick, and have to leave to make a living.

The temperament and personality of ordinary warlocks are different from ordinary people, and they rarely accept disciples casually, because of these, even for a few years, there is not a new warlock, and later the imperial capital came out of a warlock association, and the federation also ran a warlock academy, so that the warlock of the small workshop style of the individual family is inherited, and it has developed a little in the formal direction.

Devin chuckled: "Every day lives up to the time." ”

"Hahaha, that's good."

After saying a few words, Edward's voice lowered, and his eyes wandered out the window.

The position they stand in is actually very special, just in time to see the place where the carriage is parked at the gate, and every guest will fall into their sight the moment they enter the door and walk on the red carpet.

Edward's eyes seemed to be admiring the birds, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and he was amazed: "Linda is really beautiful today!" ”

A carriage stopped in front of the door, and the coachman got down first, raising his hand to help a young lady.

The young lady has delicate eyebrows and eyes, a cold expression, a golden dress, which seems to overshadow the lights of the entire manor, the boots under her feet fall to the ground, and her voice is crisp, at this time there are already several guests in front, and when they look back at her, they can't help but give way slightly.

Only this young lady, momentum, posture, and clothing, all overwhelmed others.

Another young lady soon came down from the carriage, also dressed up, but it looked much more inconspicuous, this young lady looked around, walked over and took the arm of the young lady in front of her, and whispered: "Linda, I think you have made up your mind to dominate the audience today?" Also, I heard that the gentleman is here. ”

Linda glanced at her casually, not squinting, but she could feel the blazing gaze around her, but she was at peace in her heart.

The pursuit of these young men can sometimes be very useful and turn into a particularly interesting weapon.

Linda entered the door, faintly saw the familiar sleeves by the window, slightly on the side of the head, golden hair falling, swaying in the wind, she knew that her face was the most beautiful from this angle, not only beautiful, but also moving, beautiful appearance, not necessarily exciting, if you want to impress people, there must be something special.

"Ahh

There was a suppressed exclamation all around.

Linda smiled on her lips, and a little smug welled up in her heart.

"It's beautiful!"

There were whispers all around, whether it was men or women, and Linda even felt that some people's expressions even showed a sense of piety.

Moonlight Island is a rural place after all, people don't know it, when she goes out, she doesn't have much luggage, and the maids around her are not too handy, although she does her best in makeup, it is not her best state......

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Edward had come out with Devin eagerly, smiling all over his face.

Linda raised her arm slightly and said hello reservedly.

Edward also responded: "Miss Linda is here, please inside, have fun." ”

After saying a word, his eyes had already passed through her, and he eagerly took two steps: "Miss Yang, you are so beautiful tonight, you are simply the embodiment of the god of beauty." ”

Linda paused, glanced back without a trace, and frowned.

At this time, there were already two young ladies who walked to the door with people, the leader was wearing a fishtail skirt that seemed to be very monotonous, in order to keep warm, he put a snow-white big hair shawl on his shoulders, and wore a small silver crown, and the whole person did not seem to be very luxurious.

But Linda herself felt that as soon as she appeared, the stars on the canopy instantly became a foil.

She was in a strange mood, with countless picks in her heart to see, this person's temperament was too cold and hard, although she was smiling on the surface, her eyes were very cold, and as she approached, there seemed to be a trace of ice and snow on her body.

She was also overweight, taller than some men.

She has a straight posture and a thin waist, but her walking steps are too exaggerated, and her demeanor is really not perfect.

But even if she was so picky, she didn't even think that this woman was called the embodiment of the god of beauty, which was an exaggeration.

Linda gently swallowed a little numb on the tip of her tongue, couldn't help but turn her head, walked gently to Dai Wen's side, and said with a smile: "Brother Dai Wen, long time no see." ”

Dai Wen's gaze withdrew from Yang Yuying, and nodded at her: "Come in." ”

Linda responded with a smile, and slowly walked into the hall with a gentle step, from beginning to end, with a kind and gentle look, but her female companion suddenly felt creepy for a moment.

A slightly bowed manservant on Linda's right back glanced up at her, but then lowered his head again.

As a valet, he can be regarded as the extreme, he is not good-looking, his steps are so light that he can't be heard, and the whole person has no sense of existence, which is the type of manservant that aristocratic families like the most.

Yang Yuying stopped to say a few words to Edward, and entered the hall with him, passing by Miss Linda, and her eyes crossed her, but fell on the manservant.

"Huh!"

Hugh let out a sneer.

Yang Yuying.

"What are you laughing at, we shouldn't have known a long time ago that the people on the savage planet are not much different from us, they may not be able to have the strength comparable to us because of their shallow knowledge, lack of knowledge, etc., but it's not that they are really all fools, and they all have bad qualifications."

Yang Yuying withdrew her smile and nodded solemnly.

This manservant was the one who made Hugh Ke's sleeves shatter yesterday with a horsewhip, and by the way, he couldn't sleep all night tossing and turning, and got up in the middle of the night to practice.

Hugh rolled his eyes and closed his mouth without saying a word.

As soon as the ball began, Yang Yuying found a place to sit down, holding a glass of wine and talking to President William, surrounded by young and old people.

"Let's go, we're going to go"

Hugh Ke played for a while, then gently came over and dragged Yang Yuying off the dance floor.

William and they all laughed: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, a young lady like Miss Yang, we old men, really shouldn't take up too much of her time." ”

Hugh Ke raised his eyebrows, held Yang Yuying in his arm and turned around, attracting countless cheers, and when he turned around, he happened to look at the manservant,

His eyes moved slightly, he stepped out with one foot, kicked lightly under his feet, and the next moment, Yang Yuying landed on his toes, and the two of them suddenly changed the rhythm of the dance.

All the dancers involuntarily dispersed in all directions, and many guests stared at them, almost dizzying.

Yang Yuying and Hugh Ke 'danced with friends', and at the same time glanced at the 'trouble'.

"He has an A in his energy level, an A in his physical fitness, and he is no more than twenty-five years old."

Huke was silent for a long time, and the murderous aura finally slowed down, reluctantly retracted, and some jealousy faintly appeared in his eyes.

"On a wild planet, a kid who has not undergone formal training, his grandmother's, his body has been tempered to A, and he has no teacher to converge his energy, and he can't see the round and thick aura if he doesn't look carefully."

"Do you see it, how coarse the traces of energy left on his body are, it can be seen that the things he learns are all things that are not like the four and are not low-level."

"If he can receive formal instruction from a young age, even if it is not so formal, as long as he can get by, then at his current age, he will not be worse than the military god of the Federation, right?"

Yang Yuying stepped on Huke's instep and said with a smile: "General Lin Kaien is also from a savage planet. What is he, the world is different! ”

Hugh choked: "It's an analogy." ”

What you say when you are vindictive and bragging, why should you be more serious?

Yang Yuying's eyes swept over the manservant, but she didn't believe that this was an ordinary manservant, of course Hugh Ke didn't believe it, they hadn't seen any traces of energy since they came to the Extreme Ice, and now they saw it from this person.

Hugh Ke turned his partner's waist, "Over there." ”

Yang Yuying glanced at the friend beside Edward: "I saw it." ”

After staying for so long, I didn't see anyone using energy, and at today's dance, two people suddenly appeared.

One is Devon, and the other is the man-servant.

"Good!"

The dance ended, and applause erupted from all around.

Everyone stared at Yang Yuying and Xiu Ke with bright eyes, and the two of them saluted each other and exited the dance floor.

After that, Yang Yuying never went down again, but just talked casually with Edward and the others as originally planned.

At the beginning, the big names invited by Edward to the ball were just to give William face, and according to aristocratic etiquette, they came to flatter the aristocratic daughter who was obviously from a big family.

It's just that when they really sat together and communicated, everyone found that this young lady was not a simple, ordinary aristocratic daughter, her words were worth savoring, and the amount of information conveyed in every casual sentence was amazing.

Let's just talk about some of the little secret recipes that Yang Yuying casually mentioned, such as how to identify energy attributes, and where in the wilderness, what dangers will be encountered.

Like this knowledge, many of which are at the level of secret that is not passed on, but she said it casually, it was just small talk, but she listened to the group of nobles around her with great fascination, and she wished that the whole ball would never end.

Linda finished another dance, took a rare break, and drank a glass of wine in one gulp.

"I knew you were the most popular lady at tonight's ball. Look, who dances as much today as you do, Archduke Edward and Mr. Devon have only danced with you. ”

Linda fell silent.

However, Archduke Edward and Brother Devon had been talking to the strange young lady.

She is the lady who dances the most times and is invited the most times in this ball. But she was by no means the most talked-about lady at this ball.

Linda was a little uncomfortable in her heart, she was used to being the focus of others, even in the imperial capital, at the royal ball, her brilliance was not lost to those princesses.

"Barbarian!"

She inadvertently turned around, saw Hugh's face, and frowned slightly: "Is it him?" ”

Linda suddenly straightened her face, walked towards Edward, and walked all the way to Edward: "Grand Duke Edward, I heard that you were trained as a knight when you were young?" ”

Edward raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Of course." ”

How can he also be a member of the royal family, as a royal family, the basic education is quite perfect.

Even though Edward didn't show much knightly talent from an early age, he still had to undergo the most basic knightly training.

Linda chuckled, "Then you should know what the most glorious rule of knighthood is, don't you?" ”

"Of course."

Edward was confused for a moment, and glanced around, and the butler next to him spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know what Miss Linda was crazy about.

At this time, the previous dance song had just ended, and it was relatively quiet, and Linda's voice was not so low that many of the guests had already stopped their conversation and turned their attention to them.

Linda nodded lightly and glanced at Yang Yuying very casually: "My Yonglan's knights are all modest and cautious, but they will only be angry and angry at one kind of person. ”

"Those who bully the weak are not qualified to stand with me, Grand Duke Edward, this young lady next to you may have a beautiful appearance and a noble status, but she is a person who will condone knights to bully the weak, with your identity, you introduce her to Marquis Luke, Brother Devin and others, don't you think it is an insult to them?"

Yang Yuying: ?

By the way, weak, that kid named George.

Edward blinked, "Don't you think, you feel insulted?" ”

"Of course not."

Several aristocrats around him smiled and said, "It's really an honor to meet Miss Yang." ”

Edward laughed: "You see, according to the code of nobility, do not listen or believe partially, only believe in your own eyes, your own heart, and now our hearts and eyes tell us that Miss Yang is a kind, benevolent, noble and elegant, and especially full of wisdom, and even if my father and she are acquainted, they will feel honored." ”

Linda was stunned - she had already broken out directly at the ball very rudely, and it was so obvious that Archduke Edward shouldn't have asked her carefully why the other party bullied the weak?

This is also too counterintuitive.
