Chapter 128: Dinner, Question
The glittering castle of Constantine. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It may be that Easter has not gone far, or it may be the ongoing election of cardinal archbishops in the Cathedral of St. John the Imperial Capital, today's Constantine dinner is not accompanied by a relaxed and cheerful music background, but a melodious and low religious prayer melody, flooding the crowd in the castle, adding a lot of solemn flavor to this gorgeous and noisy dinner, and also making the nobles and adults who are in each other subconsciously pay more attention to their words and deeds, showing the most elegant and reserved side, and finally presented in this castle hall is a harmonious and clean dinner scene, which is particularly decent。
In the castle hall, a rich gold filigree knitted carpet covers the entire floor, and two sheets are filled with various fruits and snacks. The long table of red wine cuts the spacious hall into three areas, and the aristocratic young masters and ladies dressed in straight tuxedos and cumbersome and graceful evening dresses flick their goblets, gather together in twos and threes and smile about each other's latest hobbies, exchange some unknown interests, and the handsome and chivalrous young masters can always find funny jokes to make the ladies laugh out loud, which is not noisy, but it is also strong enough The atmosphere almost envelops the entire castle, especially in the castle hall, there are a few green feather peacocks strolling on the red carpet with their heads held high, shuttling through the crowd, which is even more classical and gorgeous embellishment of this dinner picture。
"It seems like it's been a few days since you've seen that beautiful young lady from the faraway wasteland?"
In the corner, a handsome young master bent down and stroked the peacock passing by him, and when he looked up, he smiled casually and mentioned the focus of the recent period of time, which was often mentioned in the imperial capital, showing a strong interest- Of course, the interest here does not mean that they are really interested in that young lady, but it is just a very unfamiliar wasteland identity in their impression, plus she is a beautiful young lady who is pleasing to the eye, in the imperial capital, a place where no interesting events have happened for a long time, that young lady can indeed easily attract a lot of attention in the imperial capital, after all, strangeness itself means interesting.
"I really haven't seen it for a few days. ”
In front of this young master, there was a young man sitting casually on the long fruit table, he had fiery red hair, carrying a goblet, sitting lazily on the long table, exuding a bohemian temperament, it was easy to win the favor of others, he took a shallow sip of the wine in his hand at a good price, shrugged his shoulders and said: "I come from such a sensitive place, plus Sophia's life has not been easy recently, it is natural for her to be low-key and try not to show up, speaking of Sophia, does Austin have a plan?" Is it really like this to watch Sophia being pressed by her so-called relatives and unable to raise her head?"
Austin-Herman.
The third in line to the throne of the Herman family, one of the Empire's five giants.
Maybe this name is the main reason why they are interested in the young lady in the wasteland, because that young lady is Sophia's best friend, because Austin is Sophia's staunchest suitor, and because the two of them happen to be Austen's best friends, so they will of course care about Austen, and by extension, Sophia, they also have to pay special attention.
This is the complex circle among the heirs of the nobility of the empire.
"Planning? How to plan? This is an internal matter of the Constantine family, how can Austin interfere? However, according to Austin's usual temperament, I bet that he has at least 10 plans and 10 plans to easily find out the main messenger behind the attack on Sophia's personal butler's manor, as long as Sophia is willing, Austin can even settle these headaches for her, of course, provided that Sophia has to bring it up. ”
"It's hard to wait for our Highness Sophia to take the initiative to speak. Oh yes, have you ever heard that Sophia became best friends with that beautiful young lady from the moor because of that young lady's brother? I also heard that Sophia seems to have been with that young lady's brother for a while? I wonder if Austin knows about it. ”
"What if you know?"
The handsome young man stuffed a grape into his mouth and smiled nonchalantly, "A sinner, don't you think Austin or we need to take a sinner seriously?"
"Not really, but don't you think it's funny that a ridiculous sinner would dare to take an interest in Her Highness Sophia?"
......
The whispering of conversation and the sound of smiling and well-smiling stopped abruptly without warning.
In front of the castle hall, a girl in a purple and black evening dress and a girl in a light blue princess dress appeared in the castle's field of vision at the same time, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the castle. In the context of the hysterical personality of the aristocratic ladies in the imperial capital, if the cold and cold temperament of the girl in the purple and black evening dress is a charming scenery that stimulates this background, then the soft smile of the girl in the light blue princess dress next to her is like a delicate little white flower in this background, the same charm and the same amazing, what is even more rare is that these two fundamental two extreme temperaments can be so perfectly combined, in the process of the two of them slowly walking, there is no conflict at all, and there is no disharmony at all, it seems that it should have formed such a natural contrast, which makes people addicted。
Of course, when they walked into the castle, no one took the initiative to talk to them.
Sophia is her cold and arrogant in the past many years that the nobles and young masters of the imperial capital dare not talk easily, and Elizabeth's soft and clean temperament can easily attract many eyes, but her identity from the wasteland is destined to make her only a kitten in the eyes of the nobles of the imperial capital, not a princess, because power and bloodline are also important components of a woman's charm, which is originally one of the truest laws of the imperial capital.
"Welcome to the feast of Constantine, and to Eden in this season of life. ”
Apparently stepping on the beginning of the dinner time to Constantine's castle, almost Sophia and Elizabeth found a corner where no one was standing firmly, the host of the Constantine dinner appeared at the front of the hall, accompanied by his smile, from behind the hall slowly walked out of several women dressed in tulle, they swayed their moving waists, in the light gauze outlined grass, birds, and other patterns against the background, a vivid pastoral picture was presented by their bodies in the center of the dinner, especially exaggerated, one of the women also had a thick python wrapped around her arm, which made this picture instantly live。
As if that was really Eden.
This is the whole picture of the real dinner in the imperial capital, compared with the so-called dinner party in the wasteland, this kind of banquet with theme and connotation culture is obviously the real banquet.
"Fresh fruits are abundant, birds and beasts are satisfied, and they are full of natural beauty......"
The host on the stage sketched the style of Eden in concise language, and the picture became clearer and clearer in the light dancing of the woman.
It's just that despite the fresh patterns on the woman's body, the bewitching dancing posture still adds a lot of atmosphere called temptation to this picture.
This caused Sophia, who had always hated this kind of picture, to subconsciously ridicule: "Mass said that high society is the most degraded, and seeing this scene, Elizabeth, I don't think I need to explain the profound meaning of this sentence." ”
If someone accidentally hears Constantine's little princess actually say such a sentence, I am afraid that his eyes will fall to the ground in an instant.
Elizabeth's gaze was fixed on the picture, and she said helplessly: "Sophia, this is really not what a lady should say. ”
Sophia, whose eyes were also on the picture, and her expression was still cold, said, "Have I always maintained the image of a lady in front of you in the past?"
Elizabeth was even more helpless.
The two girls, who seemed to be engrossed in watching the picture, whispered in this noisy environment, as if they were out of place with the dinner, and seemed to be just enjoying their own world in the crowd.
......
"That's your brother Turing?"
While everyone was enjoying the dinner and enjoying their world, Elizabeth suddenly looked at the young man with a gloomy expression in the audience and asked.
Sophia narrowed her eyes slightly and nodded slightly.
"Have you found out who was really behind the attack on Nicholas Manor? To be honest, if there is still no clear answer, I'm afraid it will be difficult to investigate, because everyone is suspicious, and it is possible to target you, the sixth heir who suddenly intervened, and there is no clue at all, I even doubt that they have a certain tacit understanding and want to let you take the initiative to withdraw as soon as possible, after all, the existence of Mass is too much of a threat to them, and with you to compete, once it takes a long time, their opportunities and advantages can only become less and less. ”
Not surprisingly, Elizabeth's analysis was straight to the point.
Sophia, who has always been very aware of Elizabeth's strong mind, will not mind Elizabeth's fingers on her affairs, because at the beginning of the attack on her personal butler, she also took the initiative to communicate with Elizabeth about this matter, and even to some extent, in her home, in this huge imperial capital, the only person she can discuss and believe is Elizabeth.
She maintained her cold expression and sighed: "You're right, there is not much difference between investigating and not investigating this matter. ”
That means that each of her competitors could be the mastermind.
Feeling the heaviness, Elizabeth suddenly remembered her brother.
If Augustus were here, this so-called big problem wouldn't be a big problem, right?
......
Nicholas squeezed through the crowd and appeared behind the two of them, and whispered, "I just got the news that Master Augustus has left the wasteland. ”
Two very different reactions.
Sophia still seemed cold and indifferent, but she couldn't hide her sudden loss of concentration and her subconsciously clenched little hands.
Elizabeth was stunned at first, then smiled brightly.
