Chapter 81: Banquet of All Beings
"Look, that's what I just taught you, and you just understand, but you still can't do it. Gotte dusted off the last bit of bran from his hand, put his hands behind his back, and turned around, and met Charles's with a pair of calm eyes.
"I'm ......" Charles opened his mouth, and under Gotte's gaze, he slowly calmed his mind down, and quietly thought about what the old man said about Luna, and it must be admitted that aside from Luna being his sister, and putting aside his expectations for his sister, Gotte's mention may be objective.
"So Sir wanted to tell me that Sarah's purpose in choosing to be loyal to Luna in the first place was not pure, which is why my father did that? Why did Father wait until Sala was loyal to Luna?"
"Hehehe, little one, you were born in the royal family, and as a prince, you should learn to understand that loyalty has no pure purpose, and you should know how to see how a person does things.
In the case of Walter, have you ever wondered why he is loyal to you and you accept his allegiance?
Is it just because you grew up together and are more familiar?
If he was a man who could only talk but couldn't do anything, or if you were a willful person, would you still have the relationship you have today?
Besides, when I entered the royal court, I didn't just go to the school to teach, but I also observed it for a long time before I came!
I hope that the entire Snow Wolf Country can become better, although this ideal is lofty in the eyes of most people, but my ultimate goal is to realize my personal value under such a premise.
Of course, over the years, I have taught batches of students and indeed contributed to the kingdom, but at the same time, the kingdom has also given me more knowledge and a broader world, so that what I have learned can be put to use, and your father has taken good care of me, making me a lonely old man, and I can go anywhere without worries.
Got it?"
As Gotte's words fell, Charles looked at the old man in front of him, and unconsciously added a little respect, he knew that there were some words that Gote would not understand if he didn't tell him today.
"Sir is trying to tell me that my father is actually giving Sarah a chance by doing that, right? I want to see if she can stay with Luna, and maybe eventually get Sarah's mother back?"
Gotte stroked his goatee with a smile and said on his forehead, "At the same time, your father is also testing Luna to see how she will treat this loyalist who has fallen from the sky, but what about that little one......"
Thinking of the madness in Sarah's eyes just now, Gotte didn't know what words to use to describe him as a schoolboy.
"But Luna is still young, things ...... outside"
Speaking of this, Charles suddenly couldn't say any more, you know, what deal Calumbo reached with their father, he had only just learned from McCann, but his sister had known about it for almost half a month.
This discovery made Charles, who has always regarded himself as Luna's big brother, somewhat frustrated.
"Don't overthink it, Luna's little one...... Well, how can I say it! She is naturally curious, she likes to explore everything, and the king and the queen and you all spoil her.
When you go back, no matter how your father tries to punish her, don't confront your father.
If you don't understand it, if you can't figure it out, wait for yourself to think about it, and then ask your father.
Tomorrow I will also go to the king myself. ”
"Will Sarah go back to Luna, sir, you can't be soft-hearted. Charles always remembered Gotte's promise to Sarah.
"There are many ways to fulfill your promise, so you can go back with peace of mind.
Oh, by the way, you haven't been to the embassy much recently, and you can understand the little tricks between those people, and there's no need to mix them up.
You know, if Luna hadn't told Sarah to run around and play a prank, it wouldn't have been, and in two days it would have been a problem for you.
Go back and get some rest, and see you tomorrow. ”
Seeing Charles leave, Gotte turned around and went back to the kitchen, well, the little cake made by the cook today tasted really good, and it won his heart!
Inside the royal court.
Because he had to give the old Marquis of Casa a reception, there was a banquet in the castle that night, and many nobles were invited, and Silas put the matter down for the time being after listening to McCann's report.
That night, the spacious banquet hall was full of people, and the old Marquis of Casa, whose face was full of red light, was invited by Silas to sit on the high platform together.
Looking at the aristocrats singing and dancing below, eating meat and drinking a lot, Luna was only dumbfounded by the mother who arranged to sit next to her.
This was the first time she had seen a banquet held in the castle, how to say, the nobles were gorgeously dressed, but they were far from being polite as she imagined.
As the wine was drunk more and more, the nobles who were still holding it at the beginning slowly began to reveal their original form.
What is open and fights in the middle of the hall, what is holding a female and hiding in the corner to gnaw, it is simply not too much.
One of the most bizarre is a particularly handsome male companion brought by a certain baron.
After two glasses of wine, this one actually directly broke his clothes and turned into a big peacock, chasing females of all ages all over the hall to open the screen.
It must be said that the big tail feathers are really beautiful, but at the same time, the scenery behind the tail feathers is really indescribable.
What Luna couldn't bear the most was that she drank too much and turned into a beast and peed with her legs crossed at the base of the castle wall.
What's even more amazing is that Olivia, who is usually extremely strict with the castle's hygiene requirements, can turn a blind eye.
Compared with Luna's bewildered face, such a night is new and exciting for Jack, jumping up and down with the males, taking a group of little cubs, spreading joy everywhere, swaying his exuberant energy, and simply not having too much fun.
Aside from the males, the females are gathered together in groups of three or five, and the topic of conversation is eternal.
Show off your husband, show off your children, show off a wave of jewelry and gorgeous clothes, and then give each other a tongue, and by the way, spread some shadowless gossip that affects the harmony of other people's husbands and wives, and so on.
Of course, there are also real girlfriends, who complain about the males and relatives in the family, but there are not many such ones, at least, Luna has only seen two handfuls among the many aristocratic females, breaking claws, definitely not more than five people.
So much so that after Luna returned to her seat after listening silently for a while, and then looked at the happy males, she inexplicably gave birth to the illusion that most of them would have to go back to be human with their tails between their legs when the banquet was over.
It's just that for some reason, Luna occasionally glances at Silas, the old marquis of Casa, who is chatting with her father over a drink, and always thinks that her father looks at her strangely.
And her eldest brother Charles, this night didn't seem quite right, awkwardly looking for her no less than six or seven times, as if he had something to say, but he always rambled, looking like he couldn't get to the point at all.
