These bigwigs, their families control the vast majority of the resources of the entire principality, their caravans are all over the corners of the principality, and their family names are well-known. At the same time, they also maintained the basic order of the principality, and they were the top figures of the aristocratic-plebeian worldview.
This grand banquet was held in the mansion of the nobles in the eastern part of the city.
In the entire eastern district of the city, the people who can live here are old families who have been inherited for at least a hundred years, and in the aristocratic circle, the older the family, the bigger their heritage, even if the ordinary nobles in this kind of living circle can squeeze in, it will not take long to be excluded.
In such a location where every inch of land is expensive, and even difficult to buy, there is such a mansion with a huge area, and the owner of this mansion is definitely a powerful figure.
The timing of this banquet is delicate, and when the royal family invites many nobles to celebrate the victory of the war, there is also a small banquet here.
When many invited nobles entered the city one after another, and many characters appeared on the big stage built by the royal family, some stories behind the scenes quietly happened.
Although this banquet is very low-key, the content is not to be underestimated.
Elegant music sounded, and many elegant ladies and handsome young aristocrats danced on the dance floor.
Between the staggering and pushing cups and changing lamps, the nobles gathered together in twos and threes, their eyes intertwined, some complex and esoteric things were transmitted, and there seemed to be another face hidden under everyone's smiling face, and the whole banquet had a strange atmosphere.
"Dingding!"
It seemed to be the ringing of a silver bell, which sounded at this banquet, which meant that the host of the banquet was about to speak, and the sound of tinkling collision sounded, and the beautiful music in the venue came to an abrupt end, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
All eyes were on a young man, who looked to be about twenty years old, with meticulous hair, a high nose, and a knife-like face, who looked like a handsome nobleman, and he was dressed in a simple aristocratic dress made of silk, and he held a crystal goblet in his left hand, and the mellow red wine swayed, making him full of the temperament of a superior person.
"Joborg, I heard that a guest from afar arrived in Magnolia today?"
The young nobleman moved gracefully, took a sip of red wine, and asked with a very high posture.
"Your Highness, guests from afar? I didn't see it," in front of the young man known as "Your Highness", a young man who was also well-looking, wearing a black evening dress, raised his eyebrows, and said exaggeratedly: "I didn't see any guests from afar, but I sent a few hillbillies from the remote countryside today!"
The young nobleman named "Joborg" moved lightly and spoke in an exaggerated tone, which made many aristocratic ladies cover their mouths and chuckle, as if through Joborg's movements, they could see a few hillbillies with mud legs.
"Hehe, forget it, just send it away!Joborg, I heard that you have been promoted to a second-class armed baron, congratulations. The elegant man held up the goblet and congratulated in a flat tone.
However, even in such a flat tone, that Joborg responded with a flattered face, and he laughed and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Hehe, this time I went to the Northland with the elders of my family, went around a few times, and came back and was promoted." ”
Joborg said lightly, and behind these light-hearted words, hidden are the bones of the soldiers who have shed blood in the west!
Joborg Mayr, the eldest son of the Mayr, is destined to succeed the Mayr, and his family, the Mayr, is the military family that controls Magnoria's defense.
To put it bluntly, he is the son of the public security system.
As a nobleman of the royal capital, Joborg was indulgent, spending all day drinking, and looked extremely gentle, but those who knew him well knew that this person was thoughtful and spicy.
In control of the royal capital defense army, Joborg got the news as soon as Wang Xiaotian entered the city.
After that, Wang Xiaotian was humiliated in front of the mansion, and Joborg's operation was also behind his back.
Glancing at the expressions of all the nobles around him, the young man on the main seat chuckled, drank the red wine in his hand, and said lightly: "There will be many guests visiting recently, but there are always some nouveau riche inside, they are really vulgar to the noble nobles, you should keep your eyes open in the future!"
As soon as the man's words full of meaning came out, the surrounding nobles were stunned.
In private, everyone's eyes were passing to each other, this highness seemed to be warning something, none of the people present were simple, they quickly realized something, it seemed that this highness was going to suppress the "blackstone baron" from the western border.
Seeing that the purpose of this banquet was almost complete, Joborg immediately rounded up, raised the wine glass in his hand, and said: "Come, come, drink, drink, toast to our noble royal capital!
"For the royal capital, for the nobles, cheers!"
Everyone raised their glasses again, and the banquet began to come alive in an instant, with a melodious orchestra playing cheerful tunes, and young men and women singing and dancing again, everyone smiling.
His Highness slowly drank a glass of red wine, his eyes flashed with essence, he sneered, and said softly to Joborg, "How are the others?"
"Your Highness, those people from the north have come a few days ago, and I have already arranged it, you see when you have time, I will arrange for you to meet. ”
Joborg smiled, like a prodigal boy, and whispered answers to His Highness's words.
"Hmph, tomorrow night, arrange for them to meet, this time this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I succeeded, and you and your family will benefit a lot!" A smile curled into the corner of His Highness's mouth, as if he had thought of some future scenes, and said happily to Joborg.
"Hehe, then I'm here to congratulate Your Highness, you have succeeded. Joborg said with a grin.
In such a conversation and laughter, the guests of this banquet all showed the most sincere smiles, and everyone seemed to be very happy.

And at this moment, the topic of this banquet, Wang Xiaotian was looking at the other invitation letter in his hand with some confusion.
