152 Brothers of One Heart (Part II)
Like most of the housekeepers of the Lou aristocracy, the old man in front of him was wearing a white shirt, white ancient Western-style trousers, a pair of white leather boots, and a pair of white gloves and a white way of wearing, looking very spiritual and casual, but the old man had a rigorous and decent style, and his dress didn't seem to match very well
This is something that the nobles learned from the servants of the sun god, and it is said to be related to the customs of the ancient century, but Chen Xiansong remembers the profession of butler, according to the records, the full name should be the chief servant, and the wearing should also be a black tuxedo, a black collar, and black trousers...... However, no matter how people in this era dress, it is their own business
After the old butler had made a salute, he stood straight because he had no status, so in such a formal occasion, according to etiquette, he had no right to speak before the 152 brothers and nobles
After chanting in his heart for a while about the old housekeeper's dress, Chen Xiansong came back to his senses and said, "Where do I seem to have heard the surname Andaksuya?"
"Not long ago, the little viscount Sofra begged to see Your Excellency" The old butler smiled awkwardly: "But it seems that your subordinates have stopped Sofra from being our little master"
Regarding this matter, Chen Xiansong felt that Balf did a good job Sofra saw that Bai Min couldn't succeed, so he came to see him, but in fact, the meaning is not the same, it is nothing more than taking the route of saving the country with a curve! Although Chen Xiansong does not have that ability yet, whether it is from the perspective of relatives, friends, or men, he does not like Bai Min to be entangled by some inexplicable people, especially males
Therefore, Chen Xiansong's tone was a little more indifferent: "So that's the case, so old man, what are you here for?" Speaking of which, if it's just for a banquet for me, or for a banquet for Xiaomin, we are not interested in going to the appointment, after all, I have a lot of things to deal with."
As he spoke, he raised the plan in his hand
The old housekeeper's eyes moved slightly, and then became ancient again, as soon as he came in, he saw the thick stack of 152 brothers concentric (below) papyrus on the table behind Chen Xiansong, who didn't know, an original drawing of the soul contemplative was worth a thousand gold, not to mention such a table, but the problem is that ordinary people who dare to touch it for thousands of years, how many have appeared because of greed, and the bloody historical lessons have been written into the 'genealogy' of various nobles, and almost all families with a little background will have similar records
Although the old butler is not a nobleman, but as a butler, in order to better serve the nobles, he has systematically studied the text, the genealogy of the master's family, he has also read a lot and then copied some and put it in his own secret room, therefore, he understands very well what the consequences will be if he takes away the original manuscript of the soul thinker without authorization, and he does not need to do it at all, just by releasing a little wind, there are a large number of nobles who find a way to kill the person who steals things, and then use this to please the soul thinker association
Something that is not life-getting, not a good thing, the old butler knows this truth very well, he no longer looks at those plans, just hangs his head and says: "Our eldest young master naturally knows that Your Excellency is busy with affairs, and it is not an important matter, of course I don't dare to disturb Your Excellency at will, but this matter is very important, and it is inconvenient to enter the ears of others."
Chen Xiansong did not speak
Ruth glared at the old housekeeper helplessly, and then walked out of the house by herself to cover the door by the way, seeing this, Chen Xiansong had to sigh He didn't speak, just wanted to express that he didn't agree with the old housekeeper's words, and there was no one else around him, but he didn't expect Ruth to be wrong
"Say it," Chen Xiansong stood up
"Your Excellency and Ms. Bai Min can come to the banquet in the evening, and at the same time have something very important to discuss."
Chen Xiansong shook the manuscript paper in his hand: "Very important? ”
"It's important!" The old butler replied categorically: "It has something to do with ancient relics"...,
Chen Xiansong was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, the meaning of this word is now that he is no longer a rookie who has just climbed out of the Hugh cabin and knows nothing about the world and the world is made in the era in which he was originally located, and the items that have been preserved to this era are collectively called ancient relics by post-humans
Because the industrial technology of the new human era has been quite developed, most of the industrial products have a strong antioxidant capacity, as long as the conditions are suitable, many things can be intact in this era, especially military products
And for the post-human beings of this era, the objects of the ancient era, everything is so mysterious and charming, the atmosphere and exquisite workmanship, all kinds of smooth metal products that can be used as mirrors, coupled with the unconsciously but from time to time propaganda of the Temple of the Sun, so they think that the objects of the ancient era are the treasures of the treasures...... It's just that they can't be used!
But this does not prevent them from collecting and cherishing
"Ancient relics?" Chen Xiansong frowned, and then asked suspiciously: "As far as I know, the nobles regard the ancient relics as if they were their lives, and they will never let others know about them, let alone show them easily...... Not long ago, I encountered a similar situation, which was supposed to negotiate a good deal, but it was also temporarily changed,"
The old housekeeper said lightly: "Ancient relics are indeed very rare, but this is not the point, the gem is very valuable, but holding a good embryo but not knowing how to cut stones, it is no different from garbage, it is better to sell it to an expert stone cutter This is the meaning of our young master."
Chen Xiansong sighed: "I understand what you mean, it's just, how do you know that I am a 'stone cutter'"
The old butler looked terrified: "We have investigated your itinerary a little, and have heard of the conflict and transaction between you and Your Excellency, a female soul contemplator."
Although Chen Xiansong only has the status of the lowest viscount nobleman, according to the unspoken rules, all soul contemplatives are not bound by the title, and they also see the king, and they don't have to kneel and salute, logically speaking, his status is higher than most of the nobles in the city, and only the city lord can sit on an equal footing with him to inquire about the nobles of the title, which is a big taboo, you can do it secretly, but you can't say it
The old housekeeper's words were considered to be offensive, but he said that he was afraid, but Chen Xiansong didn't feel that the other party had even the slightest trace of such emotions
Chen Xiansong pondered for a moment, he said that although the other party said so, but in view of the behavior of the nobleman named Sofra in the morning, he felt that things were not as the old butler said on the surface When he was considering whether to go to the appointment, Chen Xiansong felt that his shoulders were pressed by something soft, and he looked back and found that it was Bai Min's jade hand pressed on it
The girl was still expressionless, but Chen Xiansong still read a trace of curiosity and expectation in Bai Min's eyes
"Then please tell your host, we will go to the banquet as promised in the evening," Chen Xiansong looked back at the butler
"Waiting for your visit," the old butler bowed down and left a gilded invitation
Chen Xiansong played with the invitation for a while, and then opened the door to let Ruth in
This aristocratic girl still puffed out her face angrily, but Chen Xiansong understood that this was not for herself
"What's wrong? An expression of someone offending you" Chen Xiansong smiled: "You seem to have something to say to me before, so let's talk about it quickly while I still have some time."
Ruth became happy when she heard this, she obediently ran to Chen Xiansong's back and pinched her master's shoulder, and said with a smile: "My eldest sister and a little blacksmith are in love, but my father is against it, and I want to execute their master, you are nobler than your father, and he doesn't dare not listen to what you say, so I want to beg you to help the eldest sister talk and let my father let them go."
As soon as Ruth said this, Chen Xiansong remembered that when he went to visit the Bechedo family property two or three days ago, he did encounter such a thing, because he had a deep impression of the word 'stoning': "Then I will go over and talk to your father about it now, I will try my best, but it will be up to your father to listen or not"...,
Ruth was very moved: "Master, you don't have to go in person, I can go, my father's identity is not worth your personal visit"
Chen Xiansong was a little helpless: "There is no such statement."
Ruth was even happier and quickly kissed Chen Xiansong on the face, and then said with a red face: "Anyway, I'll go."
The original aristocratic girl almost ran away and left the room, Chen Xiansong shrugged his shoulders, and then he felt something touch his face, and he turned his head, and found that Bai Min was using a soft towel to probe the place where Ruth had kissed just now
Facing Chen Xiansong's puzzled eyes, Bai Min said quietly: "It's dirty with saliva, wipe it"
Chen Xiansong stood up with a smile, hugged Bai Min's soft body and smashed it on her face: "Is it dirty?" ”
Bai Min didn't speak, didn't move, just had data flowing in her eyes, and Chen Xiansong knew that her emotions were a little chaotic, and she didn't play tricks with Bai Min, and continued to draft his plan
Not long after, Ruth came back bouncing, looking very happy, she hummed a little song to boil hot water for Chen Xiansong, ironing the dress, this is a necessary preparation before going to the banquet Originally, these jobs were done by Catherine, but I don't know what Lu Dao is for, today she stayed in her room all day and did not come out, and even ate lunch in her own room
Two hours later, it was just dark, Chen Xiansong was about to go to the banquet, at this time the little guy Frances happened to come over to eat, and when he heard that there was a banquet, his eyes immediately lit up: "Teacher, I will go too, I will go too"
She jumped up, wrapped her legs around Chen Xiansong's waist, and put her arms around his neck, with a tough posture that if you don't promise me, you won't let go
"Then let's go" The little guy is also a soul thinker, and he will never be rude in his identity Chen Xian replied, and then turned to Ruth: "You just stay at home and have dinner with Catherine"
Ruth happily replied, and the little guy jumped off Chen Xiansong's body
Then Chen Xiansong went downstairs, the old housekeeper had already prepared the carriage and waited downstairs for Chen Xiansong, Bai Min, and the little guy got into the carriage, and the decorations in the carriage were quite luxurious, covered with a thick velvet blanket, and the little guy rolled around on the velvet blanket excitedly, with an expression of enjoyment
About half an hour later, the carriage was set, Bai Min got out of the carriage first, and then Chen Xiansong and the little guy followed
After getting out of the car, what appeared in front of Chen Xiansong were two columns of maids holding windproof candles in both hands, one by one the candles emitted orange light, like two parallel gold bands at night, extending to the door of the brightly lit big house 100 meters away
Standing in front of the maid team were greeted by the two Andaksoya brothers
