Chapter Seventy-Seven: La Tasha Palace

After the whispered exchange, Phyllis turned around and saw that Anne and Colin had all come up to talk to Lucian, and couldn't help but smile slightly, they seemed to want to satisfy their curiosity and congratulate Lucien on the surface, but taking the opportunity to close the distance may be the real purpose.

So Phyllis half-blocked Lucien behind her, clapped her palms gently, and smiled beautifully, "Ladies and gentlemen, in order to celebrate the great success of Mr. Victor's concert, and to celebrate the fact that our classmate Lucien has become a recognized genius in the music industry, I would like to invite you all to my family's estate for a ball on Friday night. This matter has been agreed to by Mr. Victor, and now I would like to know your wishes. ”

In Phyllis's opinion, with the help of the Moonlight Rose, she already has a close relationship with Lucien, so she subconsciously doesn't want Lucien to have a deep friendship with other classmates, and this kind of resource is of course the best to enjoy it alone. However, she also understands that she can't interfere in Lucian's life, and only more contacts, more entanglements, and exchange of interests are the best way to maintain the relationship.

Renee was the first to react, and said with a bright smile, "Really, it is my honor to be a guest at your manor, Miss Phyllis. ”

After she agreed, Lot, Anne, and Herodotus also answered.

Seeing that everyone was willing to accept her invitation, Phyllis turned around and kept a delicate smile: "What about you, Lucien, would you like to be a guest at my manor?"

An idea popped into Lucian's head and replied with a smile, "Of course, it's my pleasure, Phyllis. ”

Hearing Lucien's promise, Renee and the others' expressions seemed to become a little more excited.

At this time, the refreshed Victor walked down from the second floor with his book: "Alright, ladies and gentlemen, let's start our studies, the ball is still a few days." ”

Lucien found a random spot and prepared to sit down, and as he passed by Lot, Lott leaned into Lucian's ear and whispered, "I heard that McCanzim doesn't like you very much, and may be looking for trouble with you." Of course, you are already the musical advisor to Her Royal Highness the Princess, and he can't make it difficult for you directly. However, it is likely that you will be fooled up and your reputation will be discredited. ”

"Thank you, Lot, I'll be careful. Lucien thanked him politely, but he didn't have the mood and energy to think about this matter, saving Joel's family was like fighting a fire, and every day passed, there was less hope of successfully rescuing him.

Of course, Lucien also knows that he can't act recklessly, he must be patient and wait for opportunities and make all kinds of preparations, because this is a very dangerous thing, and the more you want to solve it quickly, the less likely it is to succeed.

So Lucian's current state is like walking on a tightrope between two cliffs, slow and procrastinating on the left, impatience and recklessness on the right, no matter which way he leans, he will fall to the bottom of the cliff and be crushed, and only by maintaining a perfect and extremely difficult balance can he succeed.

With the help of his own super memory and good learning methods, Lucian's learning of words has almost been completed, and what is lacking is only the accumulation of rare words, so this afternoon, Lucian, like Lott and Phyllis, are learning music. For Lucien, immersing herself in your studies also helps you stay calm.

In this calmness, combined with the information obtained and tested in the past two days, a bold plan gradually took shape in Lucian's mind.

When the study was over, Lucien returned to his cottage and packed some belongings and took them to his rented garden villa at No. 116 in the Gisu district, which seemed to be a very normal process of moving slowly, so in the evening, only one sentence was mentioned on the white paper: "Mr. Evans, please keep your smart when you go to the Latasha Palace tomorrow, and don't do stupid things, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences." ”

............

The quiet night passed quickly, and Lucien used his forced calm and a little hypnotic knowledge learned in "Eyes of the Stars" to keep himself from suffering from insomnia due to anxiety, and he slept very deeply, and woke up in good spirits.

"Today is going to be a crucial day, and there can be no mistakes!"

There were no new orders on the blank paper, and Lucien went to the musicians' guild after breakfast, occupied a small piano room, and used the piano practice to distract himself and make himself less nervous.

Maybe it's because of the drastic changes in his life in the last few days, which makes Lucien have the feeling of being played by fate and having countless difficulties and dangers, maybe he has been watching Beethoven's various pieces recently, so after a barely smooth fate melody, Lucien subconsciously played Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, which is the famous "Pathétique".

It is the pinnacle of Beethoven's early piano music, although it is called "Pathétique", but in fact, it is in the same vein as "Symphony of Destiny", using the pathos and sorrow brought by life to create a tragic atmosphere to set off a trace of firmness in the melody, expressing the heroic spirit in the face of suffering and difficult fate, and the will to fight unyieldingly.

Lucien had never practiced this piano piece, so even if he could remember all the notes clearly, he played it intermittently and without beauty, but this intermittent feeling was closer to Lucian's complex contradictions of anxiety, depression, and forced calmness, so Lucian played it over and over again until he felt exhausted.

After the music was vented, Lucien felt that his emotions and mentality had been kept in a relatively intact state, so he left the piano room and went to his lounge to rest.

At ten thirty o'clock, there was a knock on the door of the lounge, and Elena's voice came in:

"Lucien, Her Royal Highness the Princess's carriage has come to pick you up. ”

Hearing this, Lucien slowly stood up from the back chair and replied, "Very good, Elena, I'll go down at once." ”

After arranging his black coat and white shirt with wide lace cuffs, Lucien looked at his black-haired and black-eyed self in the mirror for thirty seconds before calmly and calmly walking out of the lounge to the hall on the first floor.

The carriage sent by Natasha was dark purple, with the coat of arms of the Violet family, the exterior was low-key and the interior was luxurious, Lucien sitting inside did not feel the slightest bump and shaking, and the dark yellow carpet from Tria created a warm atmosphere, but Lucian kept his attitude straight and did not pick up the blood-red wine and other items on the small table in front of him.

Ten minutes later, the carriage arrived at the Latashia Palace on time, and the main entrance was a stone gate carved with countless heroic statues, and more than a dozen soldiers in red uniforms were guarded by a muscular and fierce knight.

After briefly inspecting Lucian's belongings, the guard knight waved his hand to let the carriage pass.

As soon as he passed through the gate, Lucien quickly felt the solemn and terrifying aura of magic, which seemed to envelop the entire Latasha Palace.

The Latasas Palace is a pale golden building with a majestic and elaborate appearance, with two majestic castle-like palaces symmetrical to the east and west, and a complex of exquisite palaces connecting them.

The main palace of Latasia was preceded by a large square with a fountain, surrounded by a beautiful garden with a small market area and a variety of exotic trees and flowers.

An artificial river capable of sailing several boats sparkles and sparkles through the garden.

The carriage carrying Lucien crossed the garden avenue, crossed the long bridge over the artificial river, and stopped in front of the main palace, where two beautiful maids had been waiting for a long time.

"Hello, Mr. Evans, please follow us to Her Royal Highness's piano room. Two beautiful blonde girls who appeared to be twins saluted Lucien in the same crisp voice.

Lucien nodded politely, "Thank you." ”

Led by these two maids, Lucien passed through the splendid palaces, which were made of top-quality patterned rocks of various colors, exuding dazzling various colors, staircases, balustrades and other places wrapped in gold leaf, according to the theme of different palaces, as well as huge crystals, pure white veils and epic oil paintings distributed on the inner walls and domes, every detail is full of elaborate and elaborate glitz.

The two maids walked skillfully and lightly, trained in strict etiquette, and neither of them spoke to Lucien and kept a polite smile. Soon, Lucien was on a beautiful promenade.

The promenade opens in the direction of the garden with 24 arched windows, and on the other side of the promenade is inlaid with 24 mirrors composed of countless small lenses corresponding to the window doors, which reflect the scenery of the garden, making people feel like they are wandering directly in the garden, and the majestic huge oil paintings on the vaulted ceiling, the pure and holy light that comes from the road from nowhere, form a dreamlike scene.

This is one of the most famous buildings in the Latasia, called the "Corridor of Heaven", which Lucien knew from the books in the library and from the words of Lot, before he became famous.

Walking through the "Corridor of Heaven", where the magic is strongest, Lucien enters the palace of the "War Gallery", where Natasha lives, where the walls are covered with numerous paintings on the theme of war.

"Mr. Evans, this is the piano room. The two maids led Lucien to a quiet and secluded room, and one of them opened the door and went in first, reporting to Madame Camille.

After a while, with Camille's permission, the maid motioned for Lucien to enter.

............

It is a large room, with a warm and peaceful orange as the main color, a delicate carpet, many musical instruments, and a pale gold piano in the center.

Natasha was sitting at the piano, playing a war march, her fingering skills and powerful melodies were displayed vividly, surpassing most virtuoso, but she seemed to be deliberately imitating Victor's technique, and there was no sense of wishful thinking.

In the corner, there is a sofa, a brown and yellow coffee table, and Camille, who has a long black dress forever, sits.

Sensing Lucien coming in, Natasha stopped playing, turned around freely, and smiled naturally: "Lucian, I don't understand the new fingering of Victor playing the piano, can you explain it to me?"

She didn't have the slightest condescension, like she was greeting an old friend.

"Of course, it's my pleasure. Lucien walked over to the piano, went to another stool, and began to explain to Natasha.

Although Lucian's own musical knowledge is still at a relatively low level, what Natasha needs to communicate is exactly what Lucian is best at and what he has made up for, and this vague and ignorant performance is more certain of Natasha and others' views on Lucian's composition.

Time passed quickly, and Natasha suddenly looked at Lucien and said, "Lucian, do you have anything on your mind? I can feel your impatience, restlessness and nervousness?"

The intuition and induction of the fifth-level knight are very powerful!

And Natasha is a straightforward character, without temptation, without forbearance, and asked directly.
