Chapter 258:-for-tat
readx;? As the center of power in the entire empire, the royal capital is like the crown hanging from the throne, and it is one of the most prosperous cities in the entire continent. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
His Majesty the Emperor's court is the crown jewel, and all the building materials are brought from all over the world.
Not to mention the materials themselves, the human and material resources consumed for transportation are astronomical, and the palace has survived hundreds of years.
After repeated expansions and repairs in several dynasties, every detail is dazzling, and there are countless corals, agate, and pearls.
This is the existence that countless people yearn for, no wonder there are so many careerists in history.
The carriage stopped at the periphery of the palace and they needed to enter the palace on foot.
"I'm very sorry, husband-sama, for making you go through such an unpleasant experience. Wendy apologized.
That poor Lord Chapman was undoubtedly on her blacklist, and as long as she was in the royal capital, she would not let him have a good time.
It is simply unforgivable to dare to embarrass her fiancé in front of her.
"Lord Chapman, as the Minister of Finance, should not be so ignorant of current affairs, and he is in such a Gyeonggi important place. ”
Lin Ye didn't show much resentment, but shook his head with a frown.
Even if Chapman had a place at the Imperial Council, he shouldn't have behaved like that.
This doesn't make sense either.
"What do you mean, husband?" Wendy wondered.
Lin Ye's words clearly meant something else.
The encounter didn't seem as simple as she had imagined.
"I wonder which prince Lord Chapman is close to, or which prince is closer to his sons and daughters?"
Lin Ye knocked his hand and asked.
They walked through the marble-covered garden cloister to the banquet hall arranged by Lady Thorn.
Fante and Iga Fukiyuki followed them as waiters and maids, respectively.
Lancelot, as a military attaché, was not originally eligible to enter the court.
But he also has another identity, the second son of the Asuo family.
Sir Ranmaroch, who was in charge of the palace guards, was his brother.
Such an identity made him enough to be unimpeded in the court.
"Chapman's son Fagan and Rhaegar are very close, you mean......" Wendy was not stupid, and immediately understood what Lin Ye meant.
It was no accident that Chapman met and was troubled by him.
It was arranged in advance, perhaps to suppress the arrogance of the Duke of the Far East.
Or maybe it was to test the reaction of her fifth in line to the throne.
Whatever the purpose, however, it made Wendy furious.
"Forget it, these are trivial, if it were me in his position, maybe I would use the same little tricks, let's go. ”
Lin Ye didn't care too much about this.
The group continued on.
When you come to an arched door, a waiter opens it.
"Your Highness, please come in. ”
The moment the door opened, the sound of bright music was the first to enter the ears.
Fant looked around him in amazement.
He was just a poor boy who had grown up in a fishing village, and when he came to the court, he was already stunned by the magnificent structure and dazzling decorations.
But it wasn't until he came here that he deeply understood what it meant to be dizzying.
The floor is covered with a carpet of pure wool from the Ancas Mountains, which is very soft to step on.
The pianist plays a bright tune to the accompaniment of the violin, and the waiter shuttles back and forth with red wine from the Thracian region.
The nobles dressed in elaborate evening dresses whispered to each other and laughed and laughed.
The huge crystal light line is soft, and in the inconspicuous dim corner, there are aristocratic young men and beautiful and elegant ladies talking jokes and behaving intimately.
The murals hanging on the walls are all by the handiwork of famous artists, and these are obviously carefully selected.
Any one of them is enough to serve as a treasure of the local museum.
Wendy was dressed in a sky-blue evening gown, simple and elegant, she was all too familiar with the atmosphere, but she showed undisguised boredom.
Lin Ye looked around, his memory was not bad, and some of them were familiar faces.
This time has been seen both at the auction house and at the opera house.
As they walked by, many people raised their glasses, and he knew very well that it was all for Wendy's sake.
He didn't mind that, though.
"Isn't this Her Highness Wendy? I haven't seen you in a while, this is ......"
A handsome aristocratic young man walked over.
This is the first person to take the initiative to greet them.
He held a wine glass in one hand and tucked the other hand into his trouser pocket, looking a little arrogant and rude.
Even in the face of the high-ranking princess, Lin Ye couldn't help but glance at him more.
"This is my husband Lin Ye, husband, this is Zoro. ”
Wendy didn't show disgust when she saw this arrogant and rude man, but she also felt relieved.
It seems that I have a good relationship with him.
Lin Ye had already told her before that he would not change his name to Link, otherwise even he would be confused.
And the name of Solo, if not the name that happens to be the same as that of the Inspector General.
That Lin Ye could completely equate him with that important man.
I didn't expect him to be so young, only twenty-four or five years old, similar to Lancelot.
"Is that the Duke who has recently made a name for himself in the royal capital? Wendy, Lancelot, you have a good eye. ”
He smiled softly.
This time, though, he set his sights on Lancelot.
is also a famous child who grew up in the royal capital, and they are both about the same age, it would be strange if the two didn't know each other.
However, Lin Ye smelled something provocative, and seemed to be a little hostile to Lancelot.
"I'm just doing the right thing to be faithful to, Inspector. ”
Lancelot responded lukewarmly.
The two looked at each other,-for-tat, and did not give in to each other.
Wang Du, the famous Inspector General, actually had a gap with Lancelot, which was not a good thing for Lin Ye.
"Yes, I hope the answer you're looking for will be the right answer, my old friend. ”
Solo said the word "old friend" with a clear smell of gunpowder.
This made Lin Ye a little curious about what had happened to these two people in the past.
However, at this time, a woman in the distance looked at Solo and did not come over to talk.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness Wendy, I still have something to do, get over first, Lancelot, and if we have the chance, I'm looking forward to us finishing the unfinished thing. Solo raised his glass and took a sip.
Then he just turned around and left.
The back is elegant and calm.
"Husband, I'm sorry, don't be like him, Solo has this temper, and he has been like this for so many years. ”
Wendy looked a little helpless.
She and Solo had known each other for a long time, and of course they were closer.
"It's okay, the Inspector is a funny character, isn't he, Lancelot. Lin Ye said with interest. (To be continued.) )
