Chapter Ninety-Two: Next is the duel of the mentally retarded
"Looks like they're talking well. The Marquis Dikal slowly took a piece of roast meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and said casually. "I'm right, little Lusen is a reasonable knight. ”
"Yes, my lord, you may not believe it, but my father has never been so lenient with me. The knight sitting beside the Marquis raised his glass sullenly and drank it all, and the expression on his face was a little better. "But speaking of which, this bubbly ale tastes really good. ”
"Webster Knight~" The corner of the marquis's eyes twitched, "Even if it's you, I have to warn you, there really isn't much left of this kind of wine......" After watching the knight next to him fill himself with a large glass of wine, the marquis was not calm.
"Alas, my lord. "Since childhood, as soon as he was sent to Antlers Castle, he became a squire of the young marquis, and the knight would not be restrained by the slightest threat from the marquis. "You know, you have always been a generous and merciful lord. Also, when I got home that day, you really didn't see ......."
"Well, that's enough!" the marquis rubbed his forehead with a headache, "feel free to do it, and stop insulting me with those bullshit stories." "This bastard, the viscount may have scolded his own son severely, but there was absolutely nothing happening to hang Webster up and beat him, or have the family attendants whip his own son, or burn him with a red-hot iron block!
The point is that there are three different versions of the story, all of which are dictated by the same bastard in front of him, and it is difficult to describe the marquis's complicated feelings, especially when there are two knights who are also good at telling stories.
"It makes me sad to say that...... Webster looked elated and took another pleasant sip. "Well, my lord, really, the spiced food is not bad, it's like magic. ”
"Well, knight, the magic that destroyed the old world doesn't exist in the new world, you're a god-ex-knight!" the marquis pouted, "but, indeed, I don't know where this little bastard got the ...... of so many high-quality spices," the corners of the marquis's mouth twitched again. "This damn little bastard. ”
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked in the direction of Lu Sien.
"Well, Viscount, try it, doesn't it taste much better? Really, it's not me bragging, the food just now, the taste is really too light. Lu Sien warmly cut a piece of meat on the plate in front of each of the guests he sat with, and then put up the small packet of seasoning he had brought with him.
"Oh my God, it smells, well, it's exciting. The viscount swallowed the food in his mouth haphazardly, then swallowed a sip of wine, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, I'm sorry, knight, I shouldn't have opened my mouth when there was still food in my mouth." ”
"Well, it's human nature, after all, only virtue and food can't be disappointed, and if the two conflict, it's hard for me to determine which side I'll end up on. Lu Sien was in a very comfortable mood and looked embarrassed, but at this moment, several old nobles around him, who had always been mean, also fully accepted Lu Sien's character.
Everyone is a knowledgeable person, and the seasoning powder that Lu Sien sprinkled in front of them just now, according to the current market price, is also a commodity of two or three gold coins, and under this wonderful feeling that is equivalent to gold melting in the mouth, it is difficult for anyone to suppress their emotions in their hearts without revealing their affinity.
These seasonings may be something like five-spice powder, or in modern times, it may be a few cents.
Master Lu Sien, who has always had a very bad personality, exclaimed that he had used a few cents to make a group of nobles with high eyes, and this result also made him feel more and more happy.
Not to mention, the marquis on the side knocked on the plate intentionally or unintentionally, indicating that Lu Sien knew each other and would share a little bit or something.
Sorry for the me, didn't you see that I'm pretending not to see you right now?
Well, in the end, Lu Sien still couldn't hinder the marquis's brazenness, and reluctantly shared some of the past.
At this moment, when he looked down casually, almost all the guests entered their own rhythm, and they did not pay attention to landing Sien all the time, which made the knight feel a lot more comfortable.
After looking back and forth for half a circle, I finally saw the knights in a corner, all of them listless, and they didn't care about the hospitality of the other guests around them, and they looked bored, only Master Pete, who was sitting with them, forced a smile and a hard head, and coped with the continuous entertainment for the knights.
Alas, this group of children. Lu Sien shook his head helplessly, and the corners of his mouth had a hint of pampering.
A snap of his fingers summoned a servant of the Marquis's family.
"Hey, you, bring this to that table for me!" Lu Sien took out his seasoning bag and handed it to the little brother in front of him, and handed over a meaty rib by the way.
"Oh yes, thank you, generous sir. "Even the waiters at the castle banquet, they can only nibble on some bread cubes in the castle kitchen after the banquet, and with the food given by this lord, his life tonight will be much more wonderful.
Don't think that aristocrats are such arrogant guys.
Not everyone is as good as our entrenched Lord Lu Sien, and he did not mean to insult any of them, but also to praise the frugal virtues of the guests present. Usually when the kitchen is tidying up, there will be some left in the general stew, and there will be crumbs in the staple bread, but those bones are really cleaner than a dog gnawing.
Whoever attends the banquet of whoever does not agree will be held to death, there are some such rumors in the town of Rouse every year, think about the first time Lu Sien invited little Harpy to dine at that mushroom soup tavern, little Harpy almost killed himself.
Although now when Mr. Harpy mentions this matter, Mr. Harpy makes it clear that he does not remember it.
The manservant left with a thousand thanks, and Lu Sien, who was almost full of wine and food, leaned back on the chair behind him, and observed with satisfaction the process of the maids' faces changing from doubt to surprise when the servants came to the front of the knights, and raised their glasses to the knights when they looked at them from afar.
"It's not for me to say, sir, look at someone else's lord. After witnessing the whole process, Webster Knight, who had been staring at the Lumsin spice bag, was ready to speak again.
"Shut up, I know what you're trying to say. But as soon as you're done, I'm sure I'll put your head on the table with my own hands, do you believe it?" the gritted marquis almost squeezed the sentence out of his teeth, trying to suppress the volume, but it was still a little loud.
Naturally, it was passed word for word to the ears of Lu Sien, who had been pricking up his ears on the side, and Lord Lu Sien's expression was even more comfortable.
Pretending not to hear anything, he raised his glass and gestured to the Marquis gracefully, smiling, reserved and reserved.
The Marquis was so angry that he had to force a smile to raise his glass in return, and Knight Webster quietly gave a thumbs up behind the Marquis, who turned around and pressed his head into the plate.
Next to Lu Sien, the child's biological father, Viscount Giger, pretended not to see anything.
......
After the banquet, it was time for the ball.
The servants came in again to clean up, and the food was taken down, leaving behind a large pile of desserts, which were piled on the table on the side of the hall, so they were taken, and the portions were very sincere, but they were all honey cakes, honey donuts and the like.
There is no way, the specialty of the marquis's territory is honey, but unfortunately the marquis has already eaten and is about to vomit, just like Lord Lu Sien eats apples.
There were a few clowns, dwarfs trotting around the hall and juggling and amusing themselves, and more troupes joined in, and in an instant the atmosphere of this hall became cheerful and lively.
A number of young people spontaneously invited their dance partners, and they joined the dance floor in pairs, looking very happy.
During this period, some ladies shyly came to ask Lu Sien, but Lu Sien implicitly refused, and some men wanted to dance with the knights, but they were repulsed casually.
Well, it is worth mentioning that there are also a few red-faced aristocratic ladies who want to be able to dance with the knights, and Lu Sien likes the way the knights are blushing and at a loss at that time, but in the end, the knights still refuse the other party's request, but still leave each other behind, allowing the little girl to sit next to him and chat together.
But most of the time, it was the aristocratic ladies around her who said something excitedly, and the knights nodded expressionlessly.
Soon, there was an interesting phenomenon, the young ladies of the right age present unconsciously gathered around the knight Ji, and Lu Sien secretly laughed.
Lu Sien sat in a corner bored, shaking the wine glass in his hand, observing the life on the dance floor.
Knight Ji was accidentally crowded with girls, he was not suitable to join in, and if he really joined, it would be too hateful, and there were many men on the scene who couldn't find a female companion.
"Why, knight, won't you go down for a dance?" said the Marquis, coming to Lus'en's side, and quipped, "or which of our Laus girls you have a crush on, and I can go up and intercede for you." ”
"Please, Lord Marquis. Lu Sien stretched and rolled his eyes without grace, "I have six girls! Which of them do you think I should dance with?"
The Marquis left hurt, but the flies followed.
"Is the Knight Lu Sien?" the person who came had a haughty and disdainful expression, and a sharp edge that did not lead to it, looking like a big knight. "My master wishes to have a duel with you......"
