Chapter 279: Radiant

The dinner was held in the main hall of the new palace, and horse-drawn carriages filled the streets outside the palace, and both the nouveau riche who had just received the knighthood today and the old nobles who had been in the past walked into the new palace wearing elaborate aristocratic costumes and holding the hands of their female and male companions.

The main hall is magnificently arranged, neatly placed a table covered with white tablecloths, the table is a variety of delicacies, colorful, bottles of Sivar wine and golden malt wine soaked in ice buckets, on the side of the main hall there is a symphony band playing melodious music, the atmosphere is relaxed and casual, thousands of nobles talk to each other, laugh from time to time, waiters continue to stream, serving the nobles.

Ivo walked into the arena with Nafi in his arms, and immediately attracted the attention of everyone present, as the new duke, Ivo was a heavyweight role at the banquet, and the male nobles reluctantly took their eyes off the radiant Nafi, just to make a good impression on the future most powerful nobleman in the Kingdom of Lasses, and the nobles stepped forward to greet Ivo.

The new duke, the lord of the royal city, the commander of the Fifth Legion, and the owner of the Golden Cross, a series of crazy names made Ivo a sweetheart, and one after another nobles came forward to talk.

Ivo is the biggest upstart in the kingdom, and all kinds of networks and interest chains have not yet been consolidated, and for other small nobles, the little benefits that Ivo casually spills in his hands can meet their needs, and the oil and water are too rich.

Ivo said a few perfunctory words, and when he saw that Severn III was talking to Donald, his heart moved slightly, and he took Nafi and walked over.

When Donald saw Ivo approaching, he joked, "I'm going to call you Lord Duke in the future." ”

Ivo waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "I don't dare to let Mr. Donald, the first knight of the kingdom, call him that. ”

Donald smiled and walked away playfully.

Severn III and Ivo clinked glasses, looked at Nafi, and smiled, "The Linches girl is already so beautiful." ”

Nafi covered her mouth and chuckled, and bowed thoughtfully.

Ivo and Severn III were not so particular, and pulled the king aside alone, and asked, "You haven't given me my badge yet, what do you want?"

Severn III touched his beard and said, "I'm going to hold your award ceremony alone tomorrow......"

The king wanted to use his influence to promote from commoner to duke, and his deeds could inspire the people to serve the royal family, which also represented the king's importance, Ivo had no problem with this, and after figuring out what Severn III wanted, he concentrated on enjoying the banquet.

Ivo wandered around the chamber of commerce, chatting with the little nobles who came up to talk from time to time.

McVer caught up with him, and after the two clinked glasses, McVer praised, "Your accomplishments are astounding. ”

Ivo was a duke, a rank higher than that of McVer, and McVer had never met him, so he used honorifics when they met for the first time.

"Hello, Marquis McVerna. Ivo nodded.

After the two exchanged views on the weather and food, McVer revealed, "Duke Ivo, I have a request, I hope you can let my son work under your command. ”

"Your son?"

"Reon Siri. ”

Ivo touched his chin and said cheerfully, "No problem." "His status is not what it used to be, he can't be guilty of targeting Leon because of some small mistakes in the past, the two are no longer on the same level, he is willing to sell the Xili family a favor, Severn III invited him to become the commander of the Fifth Legion, he has the highest management power, and can stuff people in at will.

However, Ivo does not intend to be the Legion Commander forever, and he has already made up his mind that after earning the qualifications for the Redemption Journey, he will leave the Hokuriku and only be named the Legion Commander.

McVer left satisfied.

Ivo took a sip of his wine, and suddenly felt his eyes on him, and turned his head to see a group of aristocratic ladies in gorgeous long dresses gathered in the corner, looking at him, whispering to each other, their eyes blazing.

The seventeen-year-old Duke was as attractive to these noble ladies as the big fly...... Ahem, another one, like nectar to the attraction of bees, attract bees and butterflies, if you can get close to Ivo, maybe you can become a duchess, even if the possibility is not high, many noble ladies are willing to have a little affair with this young duke.

But they were worried that if they ran into a master who was not good at talking, it would make Ivo feel unhappy, and it would be a loss, so they hesitated, but a woman in an evening dress came out of the crowd directly, and the target was Ivo.

Sandrine came to Ivo with a glass of wine, her eyes rolled over Ivo's face, and she smiled: "Hello, Lord Duke. ”

Ivo glanced at her, and recognized that it was the knightess of the day's medal, and he was not afraid to leave with a smile on her face, so he replied perfunctorily, "Hello, Lady Sandrine." ”

Sandrine's eyes lit up, and she said softly, "Your Excellency, do you know me?"

"Well, I saw you in the morning at the ceremony. ”

As an officer, Sandrine is gentle as water when talking to Ivo, but in fact she has a strong personality, if she is an ordinary nobleman, she will not take the initiative to talk to her at all, but Ivo's reputation in the army is unparalleled, and she is the idol of all soldiers, and Sandrine is no exception, she can't wait to show Ivo her most perfect aspects one by one.

Ivo was not interested in her, and talked perfunctorily for a while, but this made the aristocratic ladies who were watching from the sidelines mistakenly think that he was very talkative, and they all had the idea of coming forward to talk, and secretly annoyed that Sandrine was the first to find out, and all of them rushed up for a while, and introduced themselves in a gossipy.

"Lord Duke, I'm the McCoys' Pilates. ”

"I'm the ...... of the Séphine family"

"I am ......"

Sandrine saw seventeen or eighteen noble ladies surrounding Ivo, and her face flashed with anger and ruin, for fear that these noble ladies would dilute the impression she had so hard left on Ivo.

Ivo was surrounded by warblers and swallows, all kinds of perfume smells were mixed together, his sensitive sense of smell became a burden, his nose was itchy, he felt the warm fragrance of nephrite jade in front and back, and the soft touch rubbed on his arms and back, and he couldn't tell which part it was, these aristocratic ladies spoke at the same time, like a chirping sparrow, Ivo secretly complained, feeling that every minute and every second was torment.

With Ivo as the center, the aristocratic lady who stepped forward to talk to him exceeded 70% of the people present, and the other male nobles looked at Ivo with envy, who was almost overwhelmed by women, and wanted to change places with him.

Nafi watched this scene with amusement from the sidelines, full of emotion, once upon a time, at the first banquet with Ivo, he was just a teenager with no sense of existence, no one cared, but now, seven years later, he has become the heart of the radiant banquet.

Nafei was not jealous at all, but felt a burst of pride and joy in her heart, as if her cherished things had also been valued by others.

Because such a wonderful person is about to become his husband!

At this moment, Ivo's gaze crossed over the warbler Yanyan who surrounded him, and Nafei's eyes were entwined.

Extremely gentle.

The next moment, Ivo squeezed away the slightly stunned aristocratic ladies and strode towards Nafi.

Nafi's heart beat suddenly, and she stood in place, watching Ivo approach with a gentle smile, as if she was locked by him, and there was no way back.

Do you want to......
