Chapter 457: The Night Banquet Trend
Anna Su and Lu Ming saw some heavyweight guests one by one, some of these people are very small, they are all next to the side of the big nobles, thirteen round tables, except for a few, almost all of them have clansmen here, and some are still the main lineages of the family.
When they saw Lu Ming, many people laughed and talked, "The Rand family of the Three Holy Grail families, when I saw them today, they were really extraordinary." ”
In fact, the Rand family has been almost low-key in recent years, especially in Lu Ming's generation, he has not become famous until he is twenty years old now, and his previous life was completely disguised as an ordinary person living in the Milan Star Circle. The thirteen round tables are hidden in the city, and the Rand family is even more hidden and thorough, if it is not for the fact that it will maintain some exposure from time to time, people who are good at forgetting will soon forget that there is a Rand family in the jì thirteen round tables. In Lu Manna's opinion, Lu Ming's ranking of thirty on the Holy Oak List is low-key. But in the eyes of others, they think that this is the face of the Rand family from the Holy Oak Institution, after all, there are only thirty heirs next, which is almost the rhythm of decline to the end.
Therefore, at this time, the people who were at the banquet did not treat Lu Ming as much as they did to the capital star, and the great aristocratic heirs who often saw the halo admired and awe. In fact, his status in this banquet is probably equivalent to the three or four young people in the round table families with high prestige in several capital stars.
Anna Su and Lu Ming dealt with the guests, smiled and tilted their heads slightly, approached Lu Ming's ear, and suddenly whispered solemnly, "There are several important people from the big families present today, all of whom have ambitions to get involved in the Royal Young Knights, if Lu Ming and your Rand family have any plans here, you must be careful today, beware of being tricked out by someone with a heart." ”
Then she came to Lu Manna, let go of Lu Ming's shoulder, and smiled slightly, "I borrowed your cousin to use it, the little witch won't be jealous of me, right?" ”
"Eat a fart...... Lu Manna just started to speak, and then found that she was secretly comparing with Anna Su just now, figure, ass, femininity and other aspects, if she was rude at this time, wouldn't she be even more compared to her? At that moment, he suddenly glanced at Lin Hai beside him, and one arm stretched out and pulled Lin Hai's hand over, his upturned nose was raised slowly, with a cold expression, "My man is here, will I be jealous?" Scold...... Hehe! ”
Anna Su was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at Lin Hai, she knew that although she had never met this little witch before, she had heard a lot of her deeds, and she did act a little recklessly, once there was a banquet in the capital, there was a noble young man who did not open his eyes and liked young teeth, and saw that she was only fourteen years old at the time, and she was wearing a black dress and eating cake in the corner of the banquet, thinking that she could trick her, a little girl who did not know the origin of the time, back to her private mansion with her handsome appearance, but she just chatted and thought that the time was ripe to put her hand on her shoulder.
And then...... Then she casually stuck the cake-eating knife in the palm of the other's hand. The aristocratic young man smiled at him casually after seeing the serrated blade cut the tendons in his palm, and his screams of horror are still talked about today.
After this incident, everyone stayed away from her. Especially those young people in the imperial capital who look at her temptation. I know that the more seductive she looks, the more colorful the little poisonous snake becomes. After that, there were some similar things, which directly confirmed her nickname of the little witch.
And now this girl took the initiative to hook the young man's hand regardless of the incomprehension, so that Anna Suduo glanced at Lin Hai a few times, and smiled at the moment, "It turns out that the little witch has also grown up." He said to Lin Hai again, "You have to treat people well." There was some sympathy in the eyes.
When Anna Su turned around and walked away, Lin Hai still looked at Lu Manna with a "**** what kind of trouble" expression on the corner of his mouth. Who knew that the girl withdrew her hand without the slightest awareness, and naturally said, "You took advantage of me when you were in the castle, and now it's level." ”
Lin Hai opened his mouth wide and hesitated for a long time, as if he remembered that the so-called ancient castle took advantage of her, as if it was an accident when he went to meet Lu Ming when he was in Milan Star, and accidentally fell to the ground with her.
But the key is...... Didn't this Nizi bite back at that time? And she almost forgot about this matter, she actually remembered deeply, Lin Hai's careful thinking about her, suddenly felt a little chilly, and felt that this woman was not as innocent and simple as she looked.
And Lu Ming was still pondering the meaning of Anna Sue's words just now. Lu Ming knew that now that the Imperial War had broken out, all the major forces had stood up and launched their own forces on it. If the current distribution of the Imperial military officer system has taken shape, then the Royal Young Knights are the future. As the war progresses, the officers trained by the Young Knights will be sent to the battlefield in droves to become the future backbone of the Empire. Whoever can grasp such a group of forces, or hold the greatest voice in the hands of such a group of forces, will be able to chase the front end of the wave in the future of the empire.
The major forces said that it was to defend the empire, or to say that it was a reshuffle through the turbulent war, but on the whole, various undercurrents began to be arranged.
And the more important information revealed by this incident is that it shows that the situation in the current capital circle is even more profound and intense than the Rand family imagined.
The banquet began to enter its peak, and guests arrived one after another, and the people who came were obviously very good in status, so that people's eyes that had been focused on Lu Ming before were given to the people who came.
The third lady of the Aesop family, the second young lady of the Merlin family, and even the third young lady of the Tiger family have also arrived.
At this time, Lu Manna's voice suddenly sounded in Lin Hai's ears, "You are miserable!" ”
Lin Hai followed Lu Manna's gaze, and among the people who followed the arrival of the three young men of the Tiger family, there was a man whose hair was shaved on both sides, leaving only a lock in the center, tied into a strand at the back of his head, and his appearance was a little rough, and his style was similar to that of a barbarian, and his height was extremely outstanding. He was covered in muscles, he didn't look bloated, and his body was full of explosive power.
"That person is Ma Guanxing's ambassador to the Imperial Embassy, Fuji Thorn, who said that he was the ambassador who coordinated Ma Guanxing's affairs, and in fact he was the commander of all the guards that Ma Guanxing sent to the Imperial Capital Star to manage all the guards, after all, he was a pimp. Don't look at the Lingwei of those big names in the empire are loyal, but they are all signed contracts, and within the scope of the contract, Lingwei does sacrifice his life for the master. However, as soon as the contract expired, Ling Wei could immediately turn his face and deny the person, and then the Ling Wei commander would be responsible for arranging the dignitaries who could afford the price. This is the characteristic of Ma Guan Xing Lingwei, and it is also a place that people love and hate...... And the group of Lingwei is very united. You just knocked out the two Red Feather Guards because of Zhang Juxiong before, which greatly affected Ling Wei's reputation, if this vine thorn knew about you, how would he give up? You've offended them! ”
Seeing Lu Manna's gloating look, Lin Hai shrugged his shoulders and felt that this matter was helpless. If you offend, you will be offended, at today's banquet, as long as you don't reveal your identity, the other party won't know who he is, and you will avoid embarrassment or ...... Conflict.
******
At the beginning of the feast, people sat down to eat at the long table next to them. During the banquet, it was inevitable to deal with the previous high-level talk.
The third young lady of the Aesop family was the first to look at Lu Ming and said with a smile, "The young master of the Rand family's Milan is here today, which can be regarded as the most qualified guest of honor at our banquet today...... I heard that you will enter the Young Knights, but I don't know which of the three major battalions you are currently in? This time, the Rand family intervened strongly, presumably with the goal of mastering several companies. ”
After the third lady of the Aesop family finished speaking, everyone at the banquet looked over. Just looking at many people's expressions, I naturally don't recognize her in the first half. Although Lu Ming, as the next heir of the Rand Round Table family, deserves the highest standard. But in terms of the actual influence in the capital star circle, there were already seven or eight people present who boasted that they were not below him, and their expressions showed disapproval.
It's just that they are more concerned about the second half of these words, what kind of strategic blueprint does the Rand family have?
The three battalions of the Young Knights, the Morning Striker, the Dawn, and the Spartan Battalion.
At present, the hands of the three major battalions have been stretched in. Of course, it is extremely difficult to influence a battalion, so it is very remarkable to be able to influence a company. At first glance, the three battalions are just the three officer training institutes of the Knights, but you must know that the officers who come out of these three battalions will be the main force in the future empire. The officers of a company will be the commander of at least hundreds of thousands of troops in the future, which means that if these officers are gathered, they can also affect one or two divisions and regiments in the future.
The Rand family let Lu Ming enter the Knights this time, but in fact, it was not to lay out the family.
Lu Ming saw Anna Su looking at him with a smile, thinking of her previous warning, and said lightly, "At present, which battalion is still waiting for assignment, I joined the Young Knights, in fact, I only went to be trained, and I didn't have these ideas." ”
Regardless of whether Lu Ming's words were true or not, it was just that when he made his debut, he said this, and everyone couldn't help but show disappointment and regret. There was a low noise floating through the banquet.
The Rand family has kept a low profile for too long, and some people even laughed dumbly when they heard that Lu Ming had been an ordinary person in the Milan Star Circle before, and they all said that the body of a daughter could not sit down. The Rand family is willing to release the heir to the people, which sounds unbelievable and ridiculous. "An heir who has been cheesy since he was a child and has no aristocratic vision?" This is an evaluation that some good deeds have privately ridiculed.
Now, this banquet of Anna Suju was intended to push him Lu Ming onto the core table of the capital star circle. It is that he should expound his political ideals and show his demeanor, which has attracted many people to cling, or not to say clinging, at least today's banquet can bring him a good review.
Who knew that he would avoid the important and light. This response is low-key if it sounds good, and it is unambitious to say that it is unambitious.
A few people took turns to test Lu Ming again, and found that he really had no ambitions and ideas for the Young Knights, and they couldn't help but laugh dumbly, it seemed that they didn't have to worry about the Rand family's idea of coming to the capital star circle to stir up trouble this time. At this moment, Lu Ming still avoided talking about it, how could he buy people's hearts? If the Rand family wants to march into the core power of the capital star circle, it will not be possible to do it without a group of like-minded people with the same ideals to join the help.
******
Don't care about Lu Ming anymore, the second young man of the Merlin family talked in a clear voice, "The fourth young man of my Merlin family joined the Spartan battalion last year, and he has recently been promoted, and he is already the company leader of the sharp knife company of the Spartan battalion. ”
Everyone was shocked. The second young man of the Merlin family only took a year to subdue a sharp knife company. I didn't even hear the slightest rumor before, but it was exposed at this banquet, but it was very meaningful. Recently, there were some difficulties in the battle between the empire and Xipangxia Sanyan, and a direct general of the Merlin family made a strategic mistake and lost 30,000 soldiers in his hand.
Merlin Fourth Junior entered the camp, and the promotion to company commander must have blocked the news, and today Merlin Er Shao exposed this matter, and after tomorrow, I am afraid that many wind directions on the capital star will be deflected. There will be a lot less sound of attacks on them.
Strength is the reason to shut up.
Anna's dinner party is also a celebrity event, and the direct generals of the Merlin family who fought on the front line are not in a good situation, and it is only by the people of their Tiger family that the situation is stabilized, and now the prestige of the Tiger family is above the Merlin family, and now this dinner, how can the Merlin family be dominant?
Moreover, the third young man of the Tiger family, Tai Weiyin, is very unaccustomed to the style of Merlin's second young man, Merred, and suppresses those who dare to gossip with his strength and prestige, what kind of hero is he.
Tai Weiyin smiled coldly, "Heh, it turns out that this is the case, this promotion order passed through the hands of one of our second-class sergeant majors. I'm still wondering when Merlin's family will be made public...... Oh, but at this time, it is just enough to dilute the negative impact of your defeat on the front...... It's a good time! ”
Merlin looked at him. There was a piercing cold light in his eyes. snorted coldly, knowing that he was at a loss, he stopped talking.
However, others chewed on the hidden meaning revealed in Tai Weiyin's words, and at the same time felt awe-inspiring......
Second Sergeant Major!
The Tiger family was able to unknowingly master a second-class sergeant major in the Spartan battalion, and the promotion of the company commander of Merlin's fourth junior was passed by this person. This has proven that the influence of the Tiger family on the Spartan camp of the Young Knights is not trivial.
You must know that among the Young Knights, there is a division of fourth-class sergeant major. These people are all instructors, weapons experts, technical backbones, and figures among the elites of the major battalions of the Order. Although these people are only sergeant majors, they are afraid that they are the regiment commanders and brigade commanders in the imperial army, and in front of them, they all bow their heads like junior soldiers. Maybe some of these officers are still the soldiers they brought out back then.
And the sergeant major of the first class in the Young Knights is even more impressive. Even if an Imperial Military division commander stood in front of him, he had no right to speak.
The Tiger family has a second-class sergeant major in the Spartan battalion, in fact, when I think about it, it seems that this is also the hole card that the nobles of the round table should have, but it is exposed, which is always a little shocking.
Merlin was silent at the right time, and Tiger was not pressing on step by step. Although these round table nobles are not monolithic, Tiger Sanshao knows that they have hole cards, and now throwing a second-class sergeant major is shocking enough, but the Merlin family may not have ......
Otherwise, how could that Merlin Fourth Boy soar up in the Spartan camp? Now that he has been promoted to company captain, the second-class sergeant major of their Tiger family originally wanted to suppress it, but he couldn't suppress it.
War broke out. Nowadays, all the big families of the empire have arranged for the descendants of the families they have high hopes to join the Young Knights, and they all hope to fight for the empire through the Guò Young Knights, which is a moment of meritorious service.
Who can win a place in the Young Knights is directly related to the right to speak in the future. Of course, everyone agrees with the way in which this kind of influential discourse is obtained. Because in the Young Knights, there is an elimination rate, and they will go to the battlefield in the future, and the officers are all sharpened by the war of iron and fire.
They may die, but those who survive a hundred battles can establish immortal deeds!
In the moment, there was a lot of talk about war and the power of the Young Knights. The eyes are full of longing.
When it comes to who is top-notch inside, and who has been excellent recently, it can't help but make people pay more attention.
The discussion of some issues of imperial principles and strategies could not help but arouse heated discussions.
Anna Sui had been guiding the entire banquet hall head-on, and whenever there was any mention of the acting head of the Young Knights, the Imperial Warrior Jie Jiang Zhe, she couldn't help but listen attentively. There was a bright light in his eyes that made the men around him jealous.
Anna Sue fell in love with Tetsu Egami. It's no secret anymore.
And many people even silently hope that this pair of matching people can come together.
At this time, the third lady of the Aesop family, Yi Jingya, said lightly, "The Second Fleet and the Fourth Fleet of the Imperial Empire of General Fibers and General Li Qinghe are defending against the Western Giant Army on the front line. But I have heard that the Prince of Xipang, Prince Xiaerde, is a number of famous generals, and he is as famous as Cao Shidao in Xipang. The important thing is that he has been in battle for a long time and has a lot of experience in battle. Whether Fibers and Li Qinghe can win or not depends on the battle for the Lower Sanyan Galaxy, but it seems that the shape is not good for us. If the commander is replaced by our Jiang Shang Zhe, I am afraid that Wang Xia Erde will not be an opponent. ”
The stalemate between the Second Fleet and the Fourth Fleet and the Western Fleet caused a wave within the empire that the military had sent the wrong person to the Phibers and Li Qinghe to fight. Wang Xiaerde, the prince of Xipang, has a wealth of battles, and is not weaker than Cao Shidao, if he wants to win this person, Jiang Shangzhe is the best candidate. If Jiang Shangzhe is allowed to serve as the commander-in-chief of the imperial army at the first time, maybe the battle of Sanyan will be quite smooth.
Lin Hai is the first time to see people's confidence in Jiang Shangzhe, this aristocratic lady said, there are hundreds of seats around, these aristocratic celebrities who will fight for a bloody discussion and argument on any topic just now, and more than half of them have frequently nodded in approval.
This made Lin Hai have a lingering curiosity about that character. He really wanted to go to the Knights and see what the acting head was like.
Anna Su smiled faintly, "I think the Imperial Military Department has their considerations, and the two generals, Fibers and Li Qinghe, are veterans after all, and they have unique features in marching and fighting." They fought steadily and steadily, dragging down the huge army in the west, and the victory or defeat was not yet known. Although General Jiang Shangzhe is talented, there are hundreds or thousands of generals with such qualifications in our empire, and there are many young knights with talents, and the empire has a strong reserve of strength...... I believe that the future victory will be ours! Invaders, there will be no good end! ”
Anna Su is tall, and when she mentions Egami Tetsu at this time, her eyes are shy and bright. The eyebrows are lightly raised, and they are full of heroism. The people present cheered up, and the men couldn't help but be obsessed.
It seems that only Tetsu Egami is worthy of such a woman.
******
Probably the topic was too strict before. Yi Jingya's tone changed, and while the atmosphere of the people at the table was relaxed, she decided to talk about something light, and said lightly, "I don't know if you know, a few days ago, there was an interesting story in the area of the ploughing field, a third-level senator of the lower house, because of a shortcut, flew over the private castle of a senator who is also a senator of the lower house, and wanted to forcibly pass guò...... Results ......"
People looked at her, their brows either provoking doubt, or a "so it was" expression, or a smile on their faces.
Yi Jingya, the second lady of the Aesop family, couldn't help it when she said this, and laughed out loud with a "poof", "The result...... I was knocked into the hospital from the sky! ”
This incident immediately made the banquet a lot easier, and at first glance it sounded very funny.
Some people didn't know about it, so they turned around and inquired about it. Someone obviously knew about the incident and laughed at the person who asked next to him, "Naturally, the news is impossible to report...... Eat a big one, after all, I know that councilor, Zhang Juxiong! ”
It turned out to be him, and this "bear" actually suffered a loss? Isn't he quite domineering? ”
"Haha, the boat capsized in the gutter......"
"I also heard that the new owner of the castle who hit Zhang Torch Bear and ploughed the fields, the new Senator Count of the House of Commons, his son is the one who recently boiled over and killed the fourth-level member of the House of Commons, the Speaker of the Star District, Garnathan!" ”
"Speaking of the Milan Star Zone, I really can't finish talking about it for a day and a night, and the speaker Garnathan is involved in the gang, and he is still the leader behind the smuggling syndicate, and he deserves to be assassinated. The son of the earl who killed him is said to be an illegitimate child......"
Whoa!
During the banquet, it was like a pot of fried beans poured into a pot, and it was boiling. Human curiosity has never been immune to this kind of lace news hot event.
The people who inquired at the moment made the banquet suddenly uproar. Many people know about this, after all, the Milan Star District is such a big event, how can it not alarm the Capital Star Circle. But after all, it has nothing to do with their lives. The perception of this matter, that is, on the image that Garnathan is the leader of an underworld organization, is sanctimonious, such a person is not enjoyable to be tried directly and died, and only by being assassinated can he deserve it. Of course, due to the cold treatment of the official and deliberately low-key, the information about this matter to the capital star circle is limited after all.
Even the man who assassinated Garnathan was not photographed by the media here in the Capital Star Circle.
"By the way, what's that guy's name?"
"The member of the House of Commons is surnamed Lin, although he is an illegitimate child, he should also be surnamed Lin......"
Lin Hai...... Yes, it seems to be the name. That's right, Lin Hai. The people of the Xinglin family on the riverside. Bastard. ”
And at this moment, Anna Sue, who was in the position of the master, seemed to be thinking about this familiar name at first glance, and then thought of something, looking at the table where Lu Ming was, with an uncertain expression.
Yi Jingya looked at Lu Ming with a smile, "It's useless for us to discuss, after all, we are not from the Milan Star Zone, everyone wants to know the ins and outs of this matter, so we should ask the young master of the Rand family from the Milan Star Zone!" ”
Then she smiled with an inquiring smile, "Mr. Milan, you are in the Milan Star Zone about this matter, your Rand family should know about it, after all, such a big thing ......"
Only then did everyone realize that Lu Ming, who had almost been ignored by them.
In fact, I don't blame them, the circle of the capital star circle is so big, all kinds of powerful people gather, this stage, whoever doesn't go up to jump will be squeezed down, if you deliberately keep a low profile, don't blame others for really forgetting you.
Today, the Rand family has no ambitions for the Young Knights. Without expressing the direction of the strategic ambition, it is no wonder that people don't pay much attention to him at all.
It's just that at this time, they all looked at it.
Lu Ming was stunned, and before he could speak, the seductive waist of the little cousin Lu Manna next to him had already straightened up slightly, and her slightly plump red lips were lightly pursed, and she had a premonition to the right side, and at this time, she couldn't wait to bury her head under the table.
"Now, the person you just discussed...... It seems to be the one next to me. ”

Ahh......hh This chapter has been written for a long time, ask for votes!
