Chapter 59: Change
The 300-year-old Palace of Roses, located on the east side of the inner city, not far from the Lord's Mansion, is one of the two landmark buildings of the City of Roses.
Every New Year, Grand Duke Rose invites celebrities from all walks of life in the surrounding cities to gather in the Palace of Roses for a grand ball.
Unlike most people's imagination of extreme luxury, this palace does not have those ornate and expensive decorations, but rather quite simple, perhaps this is the reason why the Palace of Roses was not sacked in the war a hundred and fifty years ago, there was nothing of value in the first place, and of course no one looted it.
However, those rude rebels misjudged, the Palace of Roses is actually valuable, but its value lies in the buildings themselves, each building, from design to construction and even the final decoration, was completed by the architect Master Fan Kahn himself three hundred years ago. Being in it, just looking at the building, is a visual treat, not to mention that it is also decorated with a large number of artworks collected by the Rose family for thousands of years, most of which are not worth much, but each one is worth playing.
For this, Shull and Lisa are no strangers, as one of the five churches in the Sanctuary in the City of Roses, the Dark Moon Temple also receives invitations from the Palace of Roses every New Year, well, there is only one invitation in the first year, and after Shul brings Lisa to visit, the second year becomes two invitations, Shull really wants to use the same method, try to see if the third year will become ten invitations, but Lisa desperately stopped it, it can be seen that Lisa was still very reserved at that time, what a pity, if it were changed to now......
"Brother bastard, don't say it, it's too embarrassing. "Well, it seems that the great Lord Lisa is still very reserved, congratulations, congratulations.
Today is certainly not the New Year, but the Palace of Roses is more lively than the New Year, with fragrant clothes and sideburns, celebrities gathered, and at least thousands of people gathered in the not big palace. Not only the celebrities in the surrounding cities were fortunate enough to participate in the banquet, but also not only the various territories of the Kola Kingdom participated, several surrounding countries that were close to the country and could arrive in time sent their own representatives, and even the distant Emerald Kingdom was present, it can be said that half of Pavatiga's forces were concentrated in the Palace of Roses, no wonder the Rose Guild unconditionally supported this triumphal ceremony, and sure enough, no one would dislike their reputation was too high, even the Rose Grand Duke was no exception.
The carriage of honor slowly drove into the Palace of Roses, and the crowd of people who greeted the heroes gradually dispersed after lingering outside the palace for a long time, and the perspective of the whole Pavatiga had already followed the footsteps of the heroes into the interior of the Palace of Roses, and transferred to the gathered guests, and the long-prepared banquet finally began.
Like the previous New Year's Dinner at the Palace of Roses, today's luncheon was quite grand, with the Rose family bringing out the best food to entertain the triumphant heroes and distinguished guests from afar. After spending a lot of money to entrust the Winged Terran to purchase specialties from all over the world, and then prepared by the four family's exclusive chefs for five days, it can be said that as long as you dare to serve the dishes on the banquet table today, they are all the best of the best. Even some of the vegetables that are only used as decorations on the plate and will not be eaten at all are shipped directly from the place of origin, and then carefully selected and carefully carved before they are eligible to be placed on the plate, and this attitude alone is enough to satisfy everyone, not to mention that the actual taste is more worthy of appreciation than the attitude.
The most important thing is that all the participants are full of smiles on their faces, no matter what the reason, at least they are really laughing, and they don't see that they are worried about their own safety, for the people who watch the live broadcast, this reassuring attitude is the greatest encouragement, even the big guys are not worried about the danger, what else do we have to worry about?
Not to mention the rest, with this harvest, this banquet can already be regarded as a complete success.
Unfortunately, as the protagonists of the banquet, Lisa and Delia, the two young girls, have always been the focus of all eyes and have received a lot of attention, from the speeches at the beginning of the banquet, to the greetings from the representatives of all parties one after another, to the subsequent greetings from the fellow priests, and even to deal with the bizarre questions from the reporters sent by the official propaganda agencies.
However, this is not the end, after that, there are still a lot of uninteresting people coming up, while squeezing on the edge of the live broadcast to introduce themselves, while intentionally or unintentionally asking about the progress of the trip, obviously when he gave a speech before, he has already introduced it in detail, but he still wants to explore a little secret, the two girls really want to put the plate on their faces, the problem is that in front of the audience all over the world, it is not good to be too violent, so they can only barely maintain politeness and send them away one by one, and they don't have the heart to enjoy the fun of the banquet.
It's not that no one wants Shuer to come forward to talk, but unfortunately, Shuer has already made up his mind and left the stage completely to the two girls, so he just smiled perfunctorily, and the attitude of refusal was quite obvious, plus several of the big names in the priesthood have been by Shuer's side, those people had to give up their plans in a sneer, and turned their heads to continue to harass the two little ladies who came forward, and when they could finally sit down, they were already tired and didn't want to stand up again.
But even so, when Lisa finally sat down peacefully, Shul saw an imperceptible excitement and joy in her face, and this happiness was not diminished by mental exhaustion in the slightest.
"Brother, I have experienced a fundamental change. Sitting next to Shuer, Lisa picked up the wine glass and gently hit Shuer's wine glass, maybe it was the stimulation of alcohol, the girl's face was flushed, and she looked particularly cute, "I want to say thank you, but I'm afraid that you will be angry, so let me keep the thank you in my heart." ”
Shul smiled and patted Lisa on the shoulder, he knew what Lisa was referring to.
It is respect, not for the titles of 'gods' and 'churches', but for 'Goddess of the Dark Moon' and 'Temple of the Dark Moon'.
In the past, no one dared to snub the two of them directly, but that was only because Lord Luna was a god, and mortals did not dare to blaspheme the majesty of the gods, but at this banquet, Lisa really experienced the change, and the respect of the people was because it was Lord Luna, and because we were the apostles of the Dark Moon.
"Heh......" Shure smiled meaningfully, as if he wanted to say something, but he just shook his head, his eyes already attracted by Judy, who had turned from the outside.
"Almost, adults, come along. ”
