Chapter 765: The Road (I)
Next, there was a banquet and a ball to the banquet for the canonization of the crown prince, and of course the state banquet number flying
However, when Romon was ushered in the state banquet, it felt that it was a huge hall, and a long table with a capacity of hundreds of people was ready.
The brilliant lighting is a magic lamp, a complete metaphor for the modern lamps on earth, making the silver cutlery and crystal wine glasses on the mahogany dining table sparkle in the light.
Romon estimated that the table had a giant mahogany dining table that was one meter long and one meter two wide, and the table top was radiant, like a shining river running through the hall.
The royal chamberlain, dressed in beautiful gowns, greeted all the guests who arrived at the door, and at the gate, a butler commanded it all.
Walking through the door, one of the chamberlains will inevitably come forward respectfully, and at the banquet, each nobleman has a waiter to serve. Jue. Everything is in order, the seat is the king, the right seat is Prince Huxenia, opposite is the Duke of Miller and below are the three marquises, and from below, it is the prince, the princess, and the earl. Romon was placed in the last rank of the count.
It was the first time for Romon to see such a big scene, although he had also attended high-class gatherings from time to time in Yuanfan Harbor, and specially sent people to learn the banquet system of the earl's specifications. However, compared to this time, it is far from being so high-end and grand.
Etiquette at the table is complex, and each procedure has its own set of rules. From how the tablecloth is laid out to how the bread is cut, where the plates are placed, the order in which the dishes are served, how to serve the lord and the guests, etc., everything is regulated and strictly enforced. Not only that, but the rules for diners are also complicated.
Guests should pay special attention when drinking the soup, because the meat and stew in the soup should be eaten with a spoon, and the soup should be drunk in small sips, and the sound of drinking and chewing vegetables should not be heard. The meat should be cut into small pieces with a knife and eaten by hand.
When eating, you can't stuff your mouth to the brim, and you can't let the rice stick to your mouth or face, because this is a sign of incivility.
Hands and nails must be clean, knives and forks should be wiped clean after use, mouth should be wiped before drinking, and salt and seasoning dishes should not be used to dip meat, but salt and seasonings should be put into their own dishes to dip meat and eat.
Speaking of reality, Luo Meng has studied all of these, but he is very tired of this kind of one, this is not eating, this is eating sin. What made Romon disdain the most was that this state banquet had only six dishes, and the main dish was mutton. The first plate is fish fillet boiled in white wine sauce with tomatoes and white mushrooms. The main course is potato mixed vegetables with lamb, and the second course is baby carrot with tarragon leaves, salad with nuts. For dessert, the third time was chocolate chip cookies, and finally a fruit platter.
These things, I saw a lot, but in fact they were not delicious at all, and Romon endured it, and waited until the banquet was generally dispersed, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. After the banquet, it was time for the ball, and at this time, the atmosphere was much more relaxed. "Romon!" a female voice said crisply.
On this occasion, it is rare to say the name without saying the title, and as soon as Romon turned around, he said with a smile: "Princess Sinia." ”
I haven't seen her for a few years, and the princess who still looked like Luo Li back then has now completely become a slim girl.
The white dress, in some places, is impermeable to the wind, and in other places it exposes a snow-white chest, and along the protrusion, it has a pale blue head. Romon is now, not the same as it was then, staring at her head thoughtfully. This light blue color is the embodiment of the bloodline of the gods, and it is the true family of the gods, and it will be passed on.
"In less than a few years, you've gone from baron to count. Sinia pursed her lips and smiled, looking Romon up and down, equally full of emotion: "This is the first time you have participated in the palace banquet, right?" Yes, very strange!" Romon said, scanning the hall where all the nobles of the country were concentrated. I can't help but wonder, if a few missiles come here, will the foundation of this kingdom collapse?
Sinia didn't know what he was thinking, she said with a smile: "Since that's the case, then I'll take you to know one by one, first Duke Miller."
Ordinary nobles are eager to pretend to be familiar to show that they are not dirt buns, only he says it so plainly, but it shows his strength. "Duke Miller, I know very little. Romon said.
"Duke Miller loved literature and had a tradition of supporting artists, and he also financed the construction of an academy in the royal capital, which was open to ordinary citizens. The princess said, "He has a fair position, and he likes to promote juniors, and you know him best." ”
Romon nodded, but he didn't think so in his heart, no matter how ignorant he was, he also knew that Duke Miller, whose ancestor was also a hero, and the founder of his country, the famous hero Mekta, was of the same generation and had fought side by side.
It's just that this hero doesn't have a god's backstage, so he can't become a king, and in terms of strength, he may not be under Mekta, according to Luo Meng's conjecture, he must be a spirit-level existence.
It's just that no matter how the feudal system is, with a prominent ancestor, a private territory of 1,000 square kilometers, and a duke title second only to the king, it will be suspicious and guarded against. Duke Miller likes literature, maybe he has to do it?
The princess seemed familiar, and after a while, she took Romon with her, and found a group of people in the middle of a conversation. The so-called banquet and dance hall of the royal family actually has a huge circular corridor.
In the middle is a place to dance, but if you get tired of dancing, you can find a semi-separate small room in the hallway to talk closely. At this time, this place is the small hall.
Even in the summer, with the slightest coolness, almost as good as an air conditioner, there is no doubt that it is the power of magic.
"Ah, Chania, this is the Count of Tertasho?" Seeing someone come in, an old man in the center stopped talking and smiled.
"You're the Duke of Miller? I'm so honored to meet you. Romon stepped forward and saluted.
Duke Miller nodded back.
In the room, there were two other people, both counts.
"This is Count Hilferm, this is Count Butt. Sinia said.
Romon saluted again, and the two 8 got up and returned the salute.
At the banquet, Romon had already made him the focus of attention.
The wealth of the Tertashaw Collar and the Far Sail Harbor has long been a topic for everyone to talk about, and it has also been thought of by the gods, breaking through the three thousand years of restraint and reaching the sixteenth level. There are many people who want to get acquainted with him, a nobleman who "enters the legend with half a foot". Among them were the Duke of Miller and the Earls
Lord Miller smiled and said, "Sinia, Count Testashaw, please take a seat." Sitting down, Romon was indeed amazed, Duke Miller had an elegant temperament and a serene expression, and it was indeed the posture of a duke. "Is it still the habit of the Count of Te Tachau to live in the royal capital, I heard that you are still staying in a hotel, which is not good, I have an empty dwelling in the city, and you can stay there if you wish. "Thank you, Lord Duke, for your kindness, I don't feel unaccustomed, besides, I haven't lived in the royal capital for long. Romon replied with a smile.
"Haha...... Count Tertashaw, you don't know the fun of the royal capital, the royal capital has the main square, Shambari Street, Aitian Street and other streets, every year countless artists gather here, travelers from all over the world also often appear, every day there are new works, living here, it is really full of fun, I have a third to half of the time every year, in the royal capital, many nobles are also willing to move to the royal capital. Duke Mi Li said: "By the way, in the autumn of one year, there is also a knight competition, and almost half of the knights in the country will participate in the grand event to determine the ranking." The aristocracy, in essence, existed as an armed group.
Romon hurriedly said: "Lord Duke, as a newcomer who has just entered this class, I don't know much about it, can you explain a thing or two for me?" "Haha, Te Tashober $" This is my favorite, you can explain it when I come!" At this time, Count Hefim interjected, showing great interest.
"The knight competition is the best occasion for knights to show their courage, strength and demeanor, but there are generally two forms of competition, collective competition and individual competition. ”
"Collective competitions, mostly between nobles or knights, are basically equal in number and rank in each team, and strive to be fair, and the defeated loses his knightly equipment and horses, and these become the reward of the victor. ”
"The same is true for solo jousting, which is usually divided into a division and the winner is not only rewarded, but also honored. ”
"And, of course, betting. Count Butet interjected: "I think that by that time, almost all the nobles, ladies, and ladies in the royal capital will place bets, which is a huge profit.
Princess Sinia smiled and said: "Tita Sho Bo Tham, if you are willing to stay in the royal capital for two months, it will be the time for the knight competition, and at that time, not only official knights, but also some wild knights who have reached the fifth level but have not been canonized, will also come, you can collect some knights at this time to enrich your strength." ”
"Ah, that's very interesting, but lately my realm has been flooded with druids, many of whom are true masters (grand druids)," replied Romon, "how can I snub them? "Oh, that's a shame, by the way, you're the first druid to reach level sixteen in thousands of years, how did you break through?" Duke Miller asked intently. "This is mainly the grace of the goddess, and of course, I also have a new understanding of the path of the druids" Count Tertasho, I am also interested in this, can you elaborate on it?" Princess Chenia's eyes lit up, and her proposal immediately attracted the support of those present.
For these superiors, although the titles, territories, and wealth that Romon has are good, they are not surprising.
What really moved them and wanted to inquire about the choice of road.
When they reach their level, they will understand how important and central the selection of the road is.
Nothing, as Ramon himself said, came directly.
In fact, to put it bluntly, there is not much mystery, just that human beings, or other intelligent beings, are regarded as part of nature. The heretical druids, who saw man as the opposite of nature, and therefore degenerated into the realm of wildness, I do not take it. Romon said leisurely: "The traditional agricultural druids, although they are opposed to the wild druids, actually recognize this view, and regard human beings and agriculture as the opposite of nature." "They are tormented by the conflict between agriculture and nature, and it is this that prevents them from advancing to a higher level, from breaking through to the sixteenth level. ”
Not to mention the world, even on the earth, no one can really propose that human agriculture and industry are part of nature.
In fact, the countless heroes of the earth are also limited to the ideas of agricultural druids similar to this world.
In addition, environmentalists are pouring in, and there is also an endless stream.
"What do you do?" asked Duke Miller, continuing to concentrate on it.
"It's simple, decompose, soil, maintain. ”
"You've all heard of my biogas, right? Straws and leaves are fertilizers that decompose and become soil, and that's a natural process. ”
"Instead of changing this nature, we have accelerated the degree of decomposition, and we have obtained flames and fertilizers from it, which greatly reduces the number of trees that need to be cut down, and this is the point of maintenance. ”
"In my opinion, as long as everything can be decomposed, it is a part of nature, and we druids, at the lower level, are focused on agriculture, at the intermediate level, we are focused on circulation, and at the higher level, we should focus on the wounds of nature. ”
"Some areas, struck by magic or other forces, have become places of death, this is the wound of nature, and we must try to repair it in order to restore life to the earth and nature. ”
"The druids on the Western Shift will focus on soil and maintenance, which is the cornerstone of a prosperous life, the more fertile it is, the more prosperous it is, and maintenance is the preservation of the ecology and diversity of life. ”
Luo Meng said leisurely, his heart was calm.
This was the basic doctrine and path that he held in the future when he became a god.
If it were on Earth, he would have raised a point.
Industry is integrated with nature, starting with minimizing non-decomposable substances, such as decomposable plastics. Even, all industrial materials use decomposable, or relatively fast material groups, which is the starting point of natural industry, and it is also the beginning of the future world, the harmony between man and nature. That's decomposition. And the soil and maintenance must be built on the decomposition of the people.
It's a pity that Romon is no longer on the earth, nor has he become a god on the earth, but he believes that this idea will be proposed, and once it is proposed, the immortal force will be condensed on the earth. After listening to Rommon's words, everyone present was thoughtful. After a moment, Duke Miller laughed and said, "It's really good, this passage is really full of wisdom, congratulations, Master Romong, your future is unlimited." ”
