As night fell, the white stone avenue leading to the palace was filled with luxurious carriages, and although the avenue had been devastated by civil strife, it had been restored after the war and was wider than before.

Two rows of royal guards in suit of armor lined up on either side of the banquet hall to form a welcoming guard of honor, and these guards were all chosen from the thousands, not only of the same height, but also equally handsome and mighty.

Groups of well-dressed nobles walked on the lawn with penguin steps, and the elegant manners of groups of three and five, young and old, all glanced at the ladies and ladies at the other end of the lawn, consciously or unconsciously.

These aristocrats may not be good at governing the country or fighting wars, but they all have a keen political sense.

As soon as the new emperor ascended the throne, he held such a grand banquet, and he also wiped out all the ladies and ladies of the empire.

Of course, those who have daughters are holding a fluke mentality, even those who don't have daughters, they also started thinking one by one, thinking about who the flowers may be, if they can stand on the right team and establish a good friendship with the future Queen Majesty, it will undoubtedly be beneficial to the development of the family.

Dressed like butterflies, the ladies carried a plate of glasses filled with wine and juice to pass through the crowd and deliver drinks to the guests.

At one end of the lawn, a group of noble ladies gathered and whispered...... Two people whispering, maybe you can't hear anything, but a group of people whispering, think about it, what you can't hear.

Before, because Roland had always kept a low profile, not many people had really seen him, although these noble ladies were not bound by a deep boudoir, but they could not go all over the world to meet a certain prince. Most importantly. At that time, the focus of everyone's attention was on the eldest prince and the second prince, and although Roland was not forgotten, no one looked favorably on him at all.

Therefore, when the theme of today's banquet became known to everyone, the gossip about His Majesty's land immediately spread in one small circle after another.

"Have any of you ever seen His Majesty the Emperor?"

A noble lady asked, half-covering her face with a feather fan.

"I've seen it once," said a noble lady in a goose-yellow evening gown with sparkling eyes, "Your Majesty walks with a tiger and a majestic ......."

"So Your Majesty is a beautiful man?" A noble lady asked impatiently.

"This ...... I guess so. The young lady in the yellow dress said with a somewhat evasive look in her eyes, "I'm far away." I didn't see His Majesty's face clearly. ”

The ladies unanimously despised it.

"Who's that guy?"

The girl in the yellow dress pointed her hand in order to distract her friends...... Everyone looked in the direction of her finger, and saw a girl in a magician's robe holding a juice drink in one hand and a few pieces of snacks in the other.

"Uneducated wild girl!"

A few young ladies with a sense of honor wanted to go up and teach the girl the rules of being a nobleman, but they were stopped by a few sharp-eyed and quick-handed girls.

"That's a magician. I've heard that they're all monsters, so let's not go there. The girls reminded softly.

"Shame on you!"

Considering that the magician had always had a strange temper, the noble ladies turned their attention to the conjecture of His Majesty the Emperor after a few remarks.

It was the Moon Shadow that was criticized by those aristocratic ladies. After getting rid of Roland, where did she have the interest to observe the preparations for the banquet, find a place where no one was, open the secret realm of Putuo and hide in, and stayed until the evening before coming out.

However, after eating only a few snacks in the morning, I felt tired and thirsty, so I took a glass of juice. Take a few pieces of dim sum and eat it in large bites. Image? Who would dare to pay attention to the image of a magician?

"Alice, it's you!"

A young nobleman passed by her. Said in surprise.

"Salomon? You're also coming to the banquet? ”

Moon Shadow looked up, vaguely impressed, it seemed to be the same person who came to Soentok last time, she had a good impression of this young man, so she remembered the name.

"I'm here with the Duke, when did you go back to Treston?" Salomon asked.

This young man has good work skills, and is quite loved by Duke Warren, and has always been taken around to train. He also heard some rumors about His Majesty's desire to marry Moon Shadow. However, judging by the current appearance of Moon Shadow. This is obviously impossible.

Although Salomon and Moon Shadow are not very familiar with each other, they can see it more accurately than the rest of the family, and it is not the first time that Moon Shadow refuses to marry, and Duke Warren and others wishfully believe that the identity of the emperor is not the same as that of the second prince...... Looks like it's going to be disappointing again.

"I came back yesterday, and I was invited into the palace before I could see my grandfather." Moon Shadow looked annoyed, she didn't pay attention to Salomon's thoughts, she originally thought it was an ordinary banquet, who would have thought that there would be a peachy incident, but now it is a problem to get out, and it doesn't seem appropriate to leave.

"Alice, the Duke seems to be looking for you." Salomon seemed to be deliberately reminding, and Moon Shadow followed his gaze, and sure enough, he saw Duke Warren looking around, looking like he was looking for someone.

Although she didn't know what the reason was, she also knew that Salomon was intent on helping: "Thank you, Salomon, I have made a note of this favor. ”

As he spoke, the moon shadow teleported and disappeared from its place.

"Salomon, did you see Alice?" Duke Warren saw Salomon at a glance and hurriedly asked.

"No, but there was a girl in a magic robe just now, very much like Alice, and when I walked over, she disappeared again."

Salomon casually pointed in one direction as if it were the real thing, and Duke Warren looked in the direction...... Nature sees nothing.

"Huh! This ignorant girl! ”

Duke Warren looked distressed.

I hadn't seen him for two years, and Duke Warren was so old that he looked like an octogenarian rather than a mighty warrior.

It is no wonder that at the beginning of the civil strife, Duke Warren stood on the side of the second prince with a clear banner, and his abacus was good. But the question is...... His old man's position was so firm that after Roland ascended to the throne, he had to suppress the two princes and the first lineage of subway pole elements, and Duke Warren coincidentally fell into this range. And coincidentally, some unscrupulous guys in the family actually took advantage of the war to make a fortune, and after being reported. seized the title and fief, and the vitality of the family was greatly damaged.

What is clear is that His Majesty the Emperor has unabashedly expressed his good impression of Moon Shadow and has the idea of establishing a future.

In the eyes of the Duke, this is a great time for the Warren family to rise again, and for the Moon Shadow...... Would any woman refuse this opportunity to honor the world? Especially after the summons of His Majesty the Emperor before the dinner. The Duke must spare no effort to match this good relationship, provided that he finds Moon Shadow.

"His Majesty the Emperor has arrived!"

The audience immediately fell silent, either respectfully, admiringly, flatteringly, or admiring...... All kinds of eyes. The focus was on His Majesty the Emperor who had just walked in, and every time he passed by, someone would offer a beautiful word.

Roland coped with it as he searched the crowd, but unfortunately he was eventually disappointed, and the man he was looking for was hiding behind a pillar. watched the scene in front of me as if watching a play.

"Huh! One bird enters the forest, and a hundred birds are silent! Moon Shadow sighed.

"Miss Alice describes it vividly!"

There was a chuckle from beside him, and Moon Shadow turned her head to look. Beside her stood a young nobleman, with blonde hair curled up slightly, and a sunny smile on his handsome face.

"Long time no see, Miss Alice."

The young nobleman gracefully performed a knightly salute.

Moon Shadow noticed that on his cuffs, a cyan dragon was embroidered--- which was the symbol of the dragon knight. It seems that this young dragon knight is also a beneficiary of this dragon sealing ceremony, but it is just ...... She didn't seem to remember meeting this man...... I'm so embarrassed----

"Datlão. Cerro. ”

Fortunately, the young dragon knight noticed Moon Shadow's predicament. Tell your name in a timely manner.

"Oh---- we did. Your father is the Marquis of Serro! ”

Moon Shadow finally remembered the young man who had the recklessness to jump out and fight.

"Congratulations. I didn't expect that in just two years, you are already a dragon knight. "Moon Shadow does have some emotion, in two years, things are not people, and the two supreme chairs in the palace have changed to new owners.

"Your Excellency Dragon Knight, there seems to be another Dragon Knight in the Empire, I wonder if he has come this time?" Moon Shadow asked.

"Miss Alice, my father and Ling Zun have a good relationship, and we shouldn't be outsiders, can you please call me by my name?" Dutland smiled.

"Yes, we are about the same age, and it is indeed awkward enough to call honorific titles." Moon Shadow readily agreed.

"Alice, you don't seem to like His Majesty's banquet." Datland said.

Moon Shadow shrugged, "A mage's time is always precious, how about you?" And why hide in this corner? The new dragon knight should have a chance to be favored by many young ladies. ”

"Hehe, the protagonist tonight should be His Majesty the Emperor, and everyone else is a foil." Duttland suddenly showed a rather playful smile: "Alice, you have a good chance of being the heroine tonight, don't you want to try?" ”

Moon Shadow pursed her lips and said, "The Mage Tower is a more suitable place for me to live, the Imperial Palace...... Only for those canaries to live in. ”

As he spoke, the court band suddenly stopped playing, and a court master of ceremonies came to the middle of the hall and announced the start of the ball.

Moon Shadow didn't want to wait for the dance to begin, and turned around to slip away.

"Alice, don't you want to see that lucky girl tonight?" Dutland asked, a little curiously.

"No, I'm not interested in that."

Moon Shadow simply teleported outside the hall. All she knew was that if she didn't leave immediately, there would be a great misfortune waiting for her again---- four guards were struggling to squeeze through the crowd towards where she and Datland were.
