"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to today's dinner. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
As the voice rang out, the entire hall suddenly went dark. Immediately afterward, a bright light fell from above, casting a circular light in the center of the hall.
A young man in a black tuxedo stood in the light, holding up a glass of red wine with a faint smile on his face.
All eyes were on the young man.
This is a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, tall and handsome, with a majestic and majestic spirit, and the movement of raising a glass is very elegant, showing the innate temperament of the aristocracy.
"My name is King Lyons Lear, and you can call me Lyons. ”
The young man looked around the hall, smiled and slowly spoke: "I am a fourth-year student of the college, today's dinner is actually held by me in the name of Leng Qingxuan's senior sister, I hope you don't mind this, because I very much hope to meet all of you here, you are all first-year young talents, this generation of Tianjiao figures, if I can form a deep friendship with you, it is my honor for Lyons." ”
"On behalf of the Imperial Family of Istanbul, I would like to toast you with a glass of wine. ”
"Enjoy this dinner!"
As the words fell, the young man named "King Lyons Lear" raised his head and drank the red wine from his glass.
The hall erupted in applause, and the lights reappeared, illuminating the entire hall.
"On behalf of the Istanbul Imperial Royalty?"
In a corner of the hall, a sneer suddenly sounded.
King Caesar Lear clasped his hands around his chest, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Lyons, who was standing in the center of the hall, and said softly: "Big brother, you must be a little too anxious. ”
In his tone, he made no secret of mockery and disdain.
"Who is that guy?" asked casually, nibbling on a steak. He didn't listen to King Leon at all, and only ate the food on the table.
"You, just patronize and eat, be careful not to choke. ”
Yin Yu lightly poked Su Yu's forehead, and said angrily: "He is the great prince of the Istanbul Empire and the first heir to the throne of this country, Lyons. ”
She turned her head to look at Leng Qingxuan beside her, and then said with some surprise: "I didn't expect the Bright Moon Pavilion to support Lyons, I thought you would choose King Caesar Lear." ”
"Xiaoyu, Tianya Mingyue Pavilion hasn't stood in line yet. ”
Leng Qingxuan picked up a glass of red wine, shook the wine glass gently, and said leisurely: "Tonight's banquet is just a small investment, which prince to choose depends on the next performance of the two of them." ”
"Don't you bet until the end?" A sneering smile appeared on the corner of Yin Yu's mouth, and he said, "You Tianya Mingyue Pavilion is rich and wealthy, so you are so afraid of doing a loss-making business?"
Leng Qingxuan responded with a smile: "If this business fails, it is not as simple as losing money. ”
Yin Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is it so serious?"
Leng Qingxuan shrugged: "Let's wait and see." ”
"Hey, I'm talking about two beauties, what the hell are you talking about?"
Su Yu bit a chicken leg with a blank face: "Can you explain?"
Hearing Su Yu's words, Yin Yu suddenly pursed his lips, secretly pinched Su Yu, and muttered, "Two beauties?"
Su Yu: ""
Leng Qingxuan: ""
"Wife, this is not the point!" Su Yu burst into tears and wailed in his heart.
"You two are really interesting. Leng Qingxuan couldn't help laughing, "Su Yu, let me explain it to you." ”
She took a sip of red wine, looked at Su Yu and said, "First of all, answer me a question, what kind of country is the Istanbul Empire?"
Su Yu recalled the content of the high school history book and said: "The Istanbul Empire is the second most powerful country on the Shenzhou continent, founded by the current Holy Curia Pope John and the founding emperor King Lear Lionheart, and was established five hundred years ago during the Terran Civil War, formerly known as the western frontier of the Great Chu Empire. ”
"That's pretty much it. Leng Qingxuan nodded, then showed a meaningful smile and said, "In fact, the national strength of the Istanbul Empire is still above that of the Chixiao Kingdom. ”
Su Yu frowned and said, "How can you see it?"
He didn't understand why Leng Qingxuan would say this, because the Chixiao Country where he was located was recognized as the number one power in the Shenzhou Continent.
"What I say is premised on the Holy See's willingness to cooperate with the imperial family of Istanbul. ”
Leng Qingxuan smiled and said: "In the confrontation between countries, it is always the warrior who decides the outcome in the end, and the Istanbul Empire, just Pope John, this warrior who ranks second among the eight sages in the world, is enough to resist the strength of most of the Chixiao Kingdom, not to mention the six generals of the empire?"
She spread her hands and continued: "It's a pity that after the previous emperor of the Istanbul Empire ascended the throne, he has been trying to let the imperial power override the clerical power, constantly suppressing the Holy See, which has caused contradictions between the two sides, and the current emperor Gattuso Lear has not only not improved the situation caused by the previous emperor, but has intensified, making the contradiction between the royal family and the Holy See more and more serious. ”
"It's already to the point where there is going to be a conflict, isn't it so exaggerated!" Su Yu smacked his lips, as if he didn't believe Leng Qingxuan's words.
In his impression, the Istanbul Empire has always been a country of singing and dancing, and he never imagined that behind this country, there is such a turbulent undercurrent.
"You have to trust the information of the Bright Moon Pavilion at the end of the world. Leng Qingxuan said: "The fuse that triggered this conflict is about to appear." ”
Su Yu said: "What fuse?"
Leng Qingxuan said: "The current Emperor of the Istanbul Empire, King Gattusolil, has less than a few years left to live
Until now, he has not decided who will succeed to the throne, which makes the three princes under his knees very anxious, and secretly have begun to compete with each other. ”
"I see. A sudden look flashed in Su Yu's eyes, "The Istanbul Imperial Imperial Family has internal strife, this is a great opportunity for the Holy See to turn over, once King Gattuso Lear dies, the Holy See will definitely take advantage of this to make the Holy See once equal to the Imperial Power again, and even surpass the Imperial Power in one fell swoop!"
"That's right. ”
Leng Qingxuan nodded, stretched out his hand to King Lear, who had been surrounded by several guests, and said: "Internal worries and external troubles, this is the reason why Lyons is in a hurry to hold this dinner, he needs to get more strength and funds to defeat the other two princes, seize the throne, and then fight against the Holy See." ”
Su Yu teased: "Hearing you say this, this prince is really tired, it's better not to be." ”
"Tired?" Leng Qingxuan laughed out loud.
Su Yu was slightly stunned: "What's so funny?"
Leng Qingxuan said: "In the eyes of people like them, power is the supreme thing, for the sake of rights, even if it is to sacrifice their lives, how can they feel tired?"
Leng Qingxuan suddenly found that Su Yu was not listening to herself, but tilted her head slightly, and her eyes fell on the entrance of the hall.
At the entrance stood a young man and woman holding hands.
The woman's skin is wheat-colored, her face is beautiful, and her whole body exudes vitality.
And the man
Man
With a pig's head on top!
