Chapter 563: Prince Toller's Birthday (1)
After finishing his homework, as was customary, Mark turned and walked to the door. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Teacher, please wait a moment!" said Pami behind him.
"What?" said Mark.
"Can you teach me this way of writing to others?"
"The way to write words?" Mark frowned, and then it dawned on him that he had been exposed to at least twenty ways of writing when he was learning the lingua franca of the universe, most of which were complicated, and he had chosen one of the simplest and smoothest of them. So he nodded and said:
"There's nothing wrong with the way it's written, but this silent scripture I just taught you is not allowed to tell anyone!
Hearing Mark's words, Pami's face turned red, and she couldn't help but secretly say: Will you really have to hide your husband from you in the future?
Although she thought so in her heart, she had already agreed: "Understood!
At this time, Pami didn't think at all how precious this top-notch meditation method was, even the most powerful cosmic overlord in this world, the meditation method he used was not as good as hers.
"By the way, teacher, Prince Toller said that he wants to invite you to his birthday party, and the time is half a month away. ”
Mark waved his hand and categorically refused without the slightest hesitation: "Don't go!"
With that, he turned and left. If it was three months ago, he wouldn't mind going to participate and find out the news of Qiyan City by the way, but now that he was almost familiar with the situation within a thousand miles of the neighborhood, where would he still be interested in dealing with these people with ulterior motives?
Seeing that the teacher did not hesitate to refuse a prince's invitation without even looking back, Pami stuck out her tongue with a somewhat gloomy expression. In fact, she hoped that the teacher could accompany her, after all, she had never been in contact with that kind of occasion, and she was really a little uneasy.
However, the teacher's performance also reflected his different insight and experience from ordinary people, and he was just a prince, completely disgraced! He couldn't even make his footsteps pause at all.
"I don't know what the banquets of the upper class are like. Pami quickly put everything behind her and thought with longing.
Yes, how many of the real low-class civilians have never fantasized about the extravagant life of the upper class?
Half a month passed like this, and the day finally came, and Pami specially asked Mark for leave, and dressed up in the room early, and when Lola came to pick her up in the afternoon, she finally hurriedly chose the dress that she had hesitated for a whole day, and followed Lola into the carriage.
Prince Tole's banquet was arranged in a courtyard of the Lord's Palace, and by the time Lola and Pami arrived, the banquet was about to begin.
As soon as Pami stepped into this annex, she immediately felt that her eyes lit up, and I have to say that this annex was really exquisitely built. First of all, the ground is paved with unusually smooth white jade, crystal clear, smooth and flawless, so that Pami can't bear to step on it with her shoes.
On one side of the annex is a large artificial pond with countless koi fish of all sizes swimming in them. On the other side are two long dining tables filled with a variety of snacks, fruits and drinks.
Many of the guests who had already arrived leaned against the railing with their wine glasses, admiring the koi fish below and chatting with the people around them. Tranquil and relaxing.
Further inside was the main house, with its doors wide open, and Pami was only glimpsed the tip of the iceberg and gasped at the resplendent decorations. How much does it cost!, and this is just one of the many courtyards in the City Lord's Mansion.
Seeing that Pami was a little nervous, Lola kindly patted her on the shoulder:
"Don't be afraid, it's my first time here, and the place is a little bigger than our house, and the things are refined, but it's not a big deal. Just think of it in your own home. ”
"Hmm!" Pami nodded gratefully.
To be honest, although Lola and Pami's clothes are not bad, compared to any of the noble sons and ladies in this, it is simply to the point where they can't be seen. It's no different from a beggar.
Lola is okay, after all, she has already experienced this process, but Pami is the first time to come, although Lola has already mentioned this aspect to her when she came, but after really seeing it, a feeling of self-shame still can't help but arise from the bottom of her heart. There is a feeling of sitting on pins and needles, and I don't know how to put my hands and feet.
Lola also saw that Pami was uncomfortable, and pulled her to get some food and hid in a small corner, and the two of them ate to themselves.
Lola and Pami's "distinctive" costumes and two unfamiliar faces soon attracted the attention of many sons and ladies in the courtyard.
On the west side of the koi pond, five or six girls were chatting with wine glasses. There were also some pastries on a coffee table next to him. Among them are two familiar faces, none other than Buya and Jolilena, who met Pami some time ago.
"Whose maids are those two new arrivals?, why do you dare to eat the pastries on the table without knowing your identity?"
"Gurgle, then you are wrong, the two of them are also guests invited by Prince Toller. Buya said on the side.
"Honorable guest, I know that slightly fatter one, his name is Lola, he is now studying writing in the City Lord's Mansion, and he will also learn magic with the City Lord in the future, and sooner or later he will be one of us, but who is the thinner one? It's the first time I've seen it!"
"She's called Pami, and she's a good friend of Lola. Buya replied in a sour tone.
"Is she another commoner? Dare to bring a commoner in at Prince Tole's birthday party, isn't she afraid of offending the prince? Huh? No, the guards of the city lord's mansion are very strict, how could they agree to let her in?"
"Then you don't know, do you? She's a guest personally invited by Prince Tole!"
"Prince Toler personally invited!" Several girls were stunned when they heard this, and they all turned their eyes to Pami in the far corner again, "Could it be—"
"You guessed it, I feel that Prince Tole seems to have some interest in her. Buya's eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone was unkind.
"Hmph, it's just a few of us competing, and a mere civilian woman dares to intervene, I don't know whether to live or die!"
The other girls are not good at stubble, Buya mentioned this, who hasn't counted it in their hearts? For a while, everyone's eyes became deep, and they fell into deep thought.
After a long time, a cold voice suddenly broke the silence:
"I must teach her a lesson, let her know her pounds! How dare you covet Prince Tole, hum-"
The other people glanced at each other, and they all tacitly showed a cold smile.
It didn't take long for the time of the banquet to come, and two people slowly walked out of the main house, one of them was Prince Toller, and the other was a ***** it was clear from the outline of her face that she was the mother of Prince Toller, the third lady of the lord of the city, Lady Duanmei.
"First of all, welcome to Toller's twentieth birthday, and as a mother, I would like to express my sincere gratitude......"
Madame Duanmei didn't speak very loudly, but she had a conch-shaped amplification magic item in her hand, which easily spread her voice to every part of the courtyard.
Hearing Mrs. Duanmei's words, everyone began to gather at the door of the main house in the courtyard.
"Finally, let Toler invite the first lucky girl of the day to open the prelude to today's banquet with the graceful dancing of the two of them! So who is this lucky girl? Please wait and see!"
With that, Mrs. Duanmei waved her hand to Toller beside her.
Toller nodded, looked up, and walked in one direction.
"Wow, the prince is coming to me!" said one of the girls, who was so surprised that she didn't know what to say. I was trembling with excitement.
You must know that although these nobles have a high status, the city lord of Qiyan City is the uncrowned king of many city-states within a radius of thousands of miles, and a powerful medium magician.
His favorite youngest son, Toller, has not only tested his magical talent since he was a child, but he is also the most likely person to inherit the mantle of the city lord, so there are countless noble girls who pursue Toller. Of the nearly thirty girls below, at least half had arrived overnight from other city-states.
However, the reality was cruel, and Toller passed the girl's side and walked straight into a corner. Finally, I came to two girls who were dressed plainly and knew at a glance that they were not nobles.
"Hello, Miss Pamy, I wonder if I can invite you to this first welcome dance!" said Toller, bowing very gentlemanly, and holding his hand in front of Pammy.
"Ahh
"Miss Pami?" Toller reminded with a smile, and Lola beside Pami also pinched her lightly, so many people watched, especially the honorable Mrs. Duanmei, who also looked at this side curiously.
"Ah, I promise! I agree!
Pami finally came to her senses, and quickly stretched out a pair of small white hands and placed them in Toller's palms. When she came into contact with the blazing temperature in her palm, her little face turned red.
In a daze, he was led into the main house by Toller and came to the center of the dance floor in the middle of the main house. The other visitors also followed behind the two of them under the leadership of Mrs. Duanmei.
Then the music began to play, and Toller took a step back, assumed a stamped pose, and said to Pammy:
"Welcome Dance First Form, Ready!"
"W-what? welcome dance, what welcome dance?" "Pami's face was full of confusion, "I can only dance ballroom dances, round dances, and gurumon dances—"
"Uh-" Toller wiped his forehead, forgetting that the welcome dance was learned only by the true nobles, and that it was a very formal dance, usually used as the opening ceremony of a formal banquet.
It is at this moment that the intro music of the dance ends, and the main song is about to begin.
Pami and Toller stared at each other, at a loss for a moment.
