179 The longing to protect the maiden as if it were a flower

When the old king returned, he saw Marianne, the hostess of the banquet, gathered in the middle of the ladies and nobles, and took Ophelia's hand affectionately and asked a long question: "What a lovely little girl, what is your name?"

"Ophelia. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Ophelia wore a blue wig, looked around crampedly, and saw Otto following closely behind, so that she was less frightened, nervous and heart-pounding, full of longing and fear of flashy social occasions.

Marianne wanted to show her hostess's fraternity, reached for Ophelia's wig, smiled and asked her if she was used to Wiener, if any boys invited him to dance, and while she was still performing, Ophelia hastily blocked her hand and muttered carefully, "Please...... Please don't touch my head. I'm still growing tall. ”

She saw Marianne's rude movements, and she was afraid that the wig would be crooked.

The countess next to them burst into laughter, cherishing Ophelia's frankness and loveliness. Marianne frowned, withdrew her hand, and was thinking about how to save face, when she saw the king approaching, and suddenly remembered that the king was very tired of William's family.

Marianne's hand stopped in mid-air, and turned to rub the fabric of Ophelia's clothes, and asked with a smile: "Who picked the style for you? Although this clothing is comfortable, the style is a bit grandstanding, and the lace on the cuffs is still the style that was popular last yearβ€”no wonder you are alone." Marianne caught a glimpse of the king approaching with her glass of wine against her face, and asked Ophelia pretending to be pretentious, "Is there a little difference between the imperial capital and the provinces......?"

Ophelia came out to play for the first time, she was already nervous, she didn't know why this popular woman wanted to find these faults, she couldn't answer with a red face, she was so cramped that she wanted to leave with her sleeves, but she refused to make trouble for her brother, forced herself to be polite, restrained and embarrassed, stood in the center of the sight, and said aggrievedly: "I, I like my skirt very much......"

Marianne raised her head and bewitched "heh", and sneered exaggeratedly with disdain, which not only made Ophelia at a loss, but even several ladies around her frowned and wondered, wondering why Marianne broke the child's pride.

The old king happened to walk in, and when he saw Filia's blue hair, he frowned in disgust and asked Marianne softly, "Miss William?"

Marianne smiled reservedly, "Yes, I saw her standing alone and unattended, so I called her to speak." Poor child, cramped like a maid, to teach her to adapt to high society as soon as possible......" Marianne's carefully chosen words made the king smile with pleasure. Elena and Frederick's entanglement had made the king feel bitter, and he was uncomfortable at the sight of the blue-haired people, so he longed for the blue-haired people to be uncomfortable.

Marianne skillfully figured out the king's thoughts, and only then did she slap the itch in the spot, which made the king happy.

Ophelia couldn't stand it, didn't even say a word of "rude farewell", turned around and left. In the distance, a restless aristocratic young man glanced at Ophelia for a long time, and finally waited for her to be alone, hurriedly straightened her buttons, walked straight over, and bowed her waist to ask: "Dear Miss Marquis, can you please dance?"

Ophelia thought that she was really "alone and ignored", and this sudden beautiful boy immediately attracted the attention of Marianne and the countesses. When Ophelia pursed her lips and hesitated, she saw the handsome young man humbly hunched over, and heard the whispers of the ladies: "That's right! How can such a lovely little girl be unwatched? ”

Ophelia suddenly raised her eyebrows, turned her head to look at Marianne in an instant, and the eyes of the two women collided with sparks, and they immediately fought together.

Marianne's smiling face faded, and her expression was as stiff as hard cream.

Seeing that this presumptuous woman finally stopped trembling, Ophelia was eager to take advantage of the victory and pursue, even if she took revenge on Marianne, she had to dance seriously and pour out all beings to show her once. Her immature heart gushed with the pleasure of proving herself, and she was just about to reach out to kiss the young man, when suddenly a long figure came over, stretched out his hand in front of Ophelia, and said categorically: "I'm sorry, she has a dance partner." ”

The boy and Ophelia looked up in astonishment at the same time, and saw Otto, who had blue hair hanging down his shoulders, bowing slightly, and apologized to the boy: "I am her dance partner." I'm very sorry for the misunderstanding when I went to wash my hands just now. ”

The young man from the Department of Justice was stunned for a moment. When he saw Otto leave, he seized the opportunity to talk to Ophelia, but he didn't expect Otto to come back so quickly and be caught. The young man regretted in his heart, so he had no choice but to resign: "In this case, I wish you a happy life." "Frustrated, gone.

Ophelia shouted as if she had just woken up from a dream: "Brother, did you intercept everyone who invited me to dance in advance?"

Otto didn't dare to admit it head-on, but only dared to save the country with a smile: "You are still underage, of course you need to be accompanied by a guardian." ”

"But it would be a shame if no one took care of it!" Ophelia muttered aggrievedly, "I finally came out to play, and I was looking forward to it, and I was looking forward to it, so carefully preparing, wasn't it just looking forward to music and the dance floor, and looking forward to kind appreciation?"

Otto's eyebrows furrowed, and he caught a glimpse of Marianne staring at this side, as shrewd as he was, and had already understood the ins and outs in seconds, and his heart was nameless, and he gritted his teeth and thought: "Damn, as soon as Lao Tzu walks away, will he bully my sister......?"

Even if he is angry, the top priority is to comfort his sister. So Otto gently hugged her soft and thin waist and lowered his head to kiss the blue hair on the top of her head: "The palace dance is lifeless, I'm afraid you don't like it." Remember the three-step dance of Bafaria, which was fun, and it was already popular at court. The next song will be changed to a Wiener waltz, and I will accompany you to have a good time. ”

Ophelia tugged at his sleeve happily and said, "Yes, yes." ”

Although the atmosphere is impetuous Meng Lang, the cheating of nobles is not uncommon, and cheating incidents are repeatedly prohibited, everyone is still conservative to the level of hypocrisy on the surface. Therefore, after the Wiener waltz was transmitted from Bafaria to the world, because of the cheerful rhythm and frivolous rotation, even if it was extremely popular, it was resisted. As a result of the battle between conservative and fashionable trends, married ladies refuse to waltz, but admit that it is a girl's dance, and unmarried girls can dance to their heart's content.

Ophelia was familiar with the "three steps faster", and when she heard that Otto was going to dance with her at home, her frustration suddenly vanished, and she was innocently nervous, and the fawn was stumbling in anticipation of changing the tune. (To be continued.) )
