635 Shuangwen male protagonist Archduke John
"Archduke John!" By this time Caitlyn's butler had come out to greet him.
But when he saw Archduke William next to him, he was stunned again.
Who in the national capital doesn't know that these two people don't deal with each other?? Why did you come together today?
"What?? Could it be that Miss Caitlin doesn't welcome me? Archduke William asked.
"How come, Archduke John, Archduke William, please!"
These two people can not afford to offend anyone in his family, although this Archduke William is uninvited, but they all know that their Earl still owes Archduke William a lot of money.
Having invited both of them into the living room, Caitlyn, who had been waiting in the living room, stood up happily.
John ...... Grand Duke, Grand Duke William! ”
Seeing a few people coming in, Caitlin was stunned, she and John agreed to meet today, why did Archduke William still come.
"Miss Caitlin, I haven't seen you for a few days, but I'm getting more and more beautiful!"
Archduke William walked over familiarly, pointed to the people around him and said, "You don't need me to introduce you, right?" My nephew, William the Great, Lord of Watt City. ”
"The last time I had dinner with your father, he was also very fond of my nephew, but my nephew has a deep affection for Miss Caitlin."
"William!" Archduke John was furious, of course William knew that he and Caitlyn loved each other, and he actually did such a thing to disgust himself.
William had the upper hand at this time, ignoring the anger of Archduke John.
In winter, the living room has a burning fireplace, and the wood inside crackles.
Archduke William took off his coat and handed it to Caitlyn's butler: "Be careful, my coat is decorated with silk, and if you break it, you can't afford to pay for it." ”
"Poof!" Archduke John, who was originally furious, was suddenly amused, is this Archduke William a tease?
Such a coat with a few silk flowers embroidered on it pretends to look like this??
I'm afraid he doesn't know, even in Tang Ping's carriage, even the silk used on the floor mat under his feet is a hundred times more exquisite than his, right? ?
Of course, Archduke John's sneer was also heard by Archduke William, who looked at Archduke John and was about to speak.
Archduke John also took off his coat and threw it to Caitlyn's butler.
"My coat is also made of silk, but don't worry about getting it damaged, as long as you don't get dirty with other people's dirty clothes."
Archduke William heard Archduke John's words and was about to taunt him, but his face changed, because the distance was not far, and from this distance, it seemed that the black coat that Archduke John had taken off seemed to be really made of silk, and the dark pattern of their family crest was embroidered on the back.
You must know that he bought these silk flowers from the Tang Dynasty merchants with great difficulty, and spent a lot of his own money.
Where did Archduke John find such a silk coat, and it seemed that it was specially made for their family.
"What? Unbelief? Archduke John looked at Archduke William, took his coat back, and then handed it to William: "Take a good look, after all, out of here, Archduke William may not have a chance to see such a treasure." ”
Archduke William snorted coldly, didn't reach out to pick it up, just said coldly: "Who knows if you're true or not!" ”
Archduke John pursed his lips and asked Caitlyn, "How's it going?" How are you doing? ”
Caitlyn nodded vaguely, but was still in the eyes of Archduke William.
He said coldly, "I heard that Miss Caitlin likes sweets, and my nephew specially bought a box of candied fruit with a lot of money. ”
William hurriedly came over with a box in his hand and handed it to Caitlyn like a treasure.
Archduke John snorted coldly and said, "Archduke William, it's not good to eat too many sweets. I also have a box of chocolates here for Caitlin. ”
There were a lot of snacks in Tang Ping's carriage drawer, and Tang Ping found that Archduke John liked to eat chocolate, so he simply sent him a box of modern chocolates.
"Chocolate, this is ...... What? ”
Although I can't see the inside, I don't know how many times more beautiful this box in the hands of Grand Duke John is than William's, the golden box, just looking at it, I feel one word: expensive.
But when Archduke John opened the box, Archduke William and Archduke William on one side laughed.
This box is exquisite, but it's full of small black pieces, can this thing be eaten?
"John, don't you want to give away something you picked up somewhere, what if you give Miss Caitlyn a bad stomach?" Archduke William said mockingly.
And Archduke John ignored him and just looked at Catelyn.
Caitlin nodded and whispered, "Since you sent it, then I will definitely taste it." ”
When I put one grain in my mouth with two white and tender fingers, I feel a unique silky texture and rich fragrance.
And this sweet taste is also very special......
"This chocolate is made with wine and champagne, and when you taste it, you will have a rich wine flavor between your lips and teeth." Archduke John directly copied the introduction that Tang Ping told him.
"How is that possible? How can you still smell of wine in your dark stuff? William couldn't help but speak.
He had planned to make a fortune with wine, but he didn't expect that this summer, there would be people selling wine everywhere, and the taste was similar to his, so he knew that the recipe must have been leaked.
Not only did he not make any money, but he also broke dozens of knights at that time.
The word wine has become his pain point, and when he heard the words of Archduke John at this time, he felt pain, it hurt!
Grand Duke John pursed his lips, took out two pills from the box, put them on the turned over lid, handed them over, looked at the two mockingly and said, "Taste it?" ”
Archduke William and Grand William glanced at each other, and then one of them took one and put it in his mouth.
Even if the two of them were nobles, they had never eaten such delicious sweets, especially after William finished eating, he actually licked his lips unsatisfied.
Archduke John closed the lid and gave it to Caitlin: "I'm sorry, if there are two less, I'll feed the dogs, and I'll buy you a few more boxes when the time comes." ”
Caitlin happily accepted it, and then said, "Archduke John and Archduke William haven't eaten yet, have they?" ”
Of course, she didn't want to invite Archduke William, but there was nothing she could do at this time.
Invited all three of them to the dining room, although this dinner was carefully prepared by Caitlin, Archduke William still said with some disdain: "Miss Caitlin, do you usually eat these?" If you marry into Watt City, you can eat much better every day than this. ”
"What's good to eat in your Watt City?" Archduke John took out the picture he had taken of holding a glass in the Earl's Dining Room and handed it to Caitlin: "I'll take you here to eat, it's the best food in the world." ”
"Oh my God, what is this?" Caitlyn covered her mouth and looked at the photo in surprise, then at Archduke John, and then at the photograph again.
Grand Duke William and Grand William were also stunned, what is this?
Where can a painter draw people so well?
The picture of Archduke John holding a beautiful glass of wine, but that's not the point, the point is that the picture of Archduke John is exactly the same as Archduke John who is now sitting on the side.
"Oh, it's just a picture!" Archduke John said disdainfully, he now enjoyed the feeling very much.
"It's just a small photo, and there will be a picture as big as my real life in my castle, and even in a few hundred years, the children of our family will be able to see me from there."
"Oh my God, it's the same with a picture of yours...... Lifelike? ”
"Of course!" Archduke John said as if very casually: "It may not be one, but many." ”
Grand Duke William and Grand William glanced at each other, this game was lost too completely, didn't it mean that it was better than food?
Why is Archduke John so unmartial arts, take out this picture.
Well, now everyone's mind is not on food.
Archduke William depressedly touched a cigarette and came out to light it with the candle on the table, but Archduke John found it again. "Archduke William, you smoke such cheap cigarettes? Is your family's business losing money lately? ”
"What do you say? John! "Having been deflated by Archduke John in a row, Archduke William was also a little embarrassed.
"I said, how can you smoke such a cheap cigarette."
As he spoke, he took out the jade pipe given by Tang Ping from his pocket, put the tobacco on it elegantly, and then lit the tobacco with the disposable lighter given to him by Tang Ping after two clicks.
He took a gentle puff and then spared out a puff of smoke gracefully.
When the two sides are compared, the gap is even greater.
Archduke William stared fiercely at his nephew, William.
This was bought by William from Porto, and it is said that the nobility around Porto is very popular with this kind of cigarette, and it will soon become popular in the national capital.
But now look at the pipe of Archduke John, and it does seem very cheap.
But that wasn't the end of it, Archduke John raised his hand to burn the bag, and then with a pompous motion took out his pocket watch.
"Oh, it's past eight o'clock in the evening, isn't Archduke William coming home yet?"
"What is this?"
The sapphire crystal glows a seductive blue glow in candlelight.
It looks like a large sparkling gem.
"Oh, this is a pocket watch, it is a product of Datang, and it is only produced in a limited edition of twelve pieces a year, and this is one of them."
If Tang Ping had arrived at this time, he would definitely have asked Archduke John if he had seen this category on the Internet.
Archduke John took off his pocket watch and placed it on the table, and through the top glass, he could see the fixed rhythm of the seconds hand and the gears underneath.
Archduke John introduced Caitlin to the concepts of the second, minute, and hour hands and their relationships.
"Humph! Let's go! "This pocket watch was like the last straw that crushed the opponent.
If eyes could kill, Archduke John had been pierced by Archduke William's eyes.
But the two of them are of the same status, so they can make moves in their mouths at most, even if it is a private fight, it will be strictly forbidden by King Jindila.
"William, you're here too."
At this time, Jindila came in with Tang Ping.
He was the Visigothic king, and Caitlin was only the daughter of an earl, and the men below not only did not dare to stop them, but also showed them the way.
There was also a servant who came to report the news, but just when he saw Archduke William in anger, he was frightened for a while, and before he could say anything, Kindira came in.
"And you are ......" Jindila looked at the Grand William beside the Grand Duke William, thought for a moment and said, "The lord of Watt City, right?" ”
Tang Ping didn't expect that he and William would meet under such circumstances.
He had already thought about how to clean up the other party, but he hadn't had time to do a lot of things recently, so he didn't expect to meet it today.
"I've seen His Majesty the King." The two looked curiously at Tang Ping beside Jindila, who actually brought a Tang man by his side so late.
Because Archduke John told Jindila not to disclose Tang Ping's identity for the time being, he didn't plan to introduce it.
But I didn't expect Tang Ping to say coldly at this time: "King Jindila, I need an explanation." ”
"Explain?" Jindila frowned, she didn't expect Tang Ping, who was still talking and laughing with herself just now, to change his face all of a sudden.
"Yes, I want to ask, if the nobles of your country send troops to attack me, it will be regarded as a declaration of war with our Tang Dynasty."
"Declare war!" Jindila was shocked, what is Datang?
It is a superpower that pushes the invincible Arab Empire to the ground.
And the reason why the two countries went to war was because the Arab Empire killed some merchants of the Tang Dynasty.
If someone in their Visigothic Kingdom really sent troops to attack Tang Ping, the Duke of the Tang Dynasty, then in their opinion, it would be much more serious than slaughtering some civilian merchants.
"Don!" Grand Duke John didn't expect Tang Ping to suddenly say this, and when he stood up, he was going to ask what was going on.
Jindi stretched out his hand to stop him, then took a deep breath and said, "Can you please tell me about Grand Duke Tang, what is going on?" ”
Tang Ping sneered and said: "I wanted to give it to the City Lord William as a gift with a wine recipe, but I didn't expect the Lord William to send a large army to kill me in order to keep it secret, but fortunately, I got the help of the current King of Wessex and escaped by luck." ”
Big William sighed in his heart, he didn't know Tang Ping at all, so when Tang Ping said that he was going to declare war just now, he didn't feel that it had anything to do with him, although it was a little inexplicable, but he was also going to see what was going on when he stood next to him.
Unexpectedly, Tang Ping's voice changed and he smashed this melon on his head.
"William?" Kindira turned to look at William.
Big William hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I didn't ...... I...... I...... He...... That wine recipe wasn't a gift for me......"
"I still have weapons seized from the army that came to exterminate the mouth, but I need to show them to testify?"
Tang Ping continued.
At this time, in fact, as long as you look at William's appearance, you will know that most of what Tang Ping said is true.
Grand William grabbed Grand Duke William's sleeve and said, "Uncle, help me, help me!" ”
Archduke William kicked over: "Who is your uncle?" You are a traitor, I will definitely report to the family and expel you. ”
Grand William may not know the terrible of the Tang Dynasty, but Grand Duke William knows that their family is originally in business, and they get more news from businessmen.
What kind of behemoth Datang is, he may know better than Jindila.
At this time, he dared to call himself uncle, because he planned to ...... the entire William family No, is it intended to drag the entire Visigothic into hell?
Jindila said apologetically: "Grand Duke Tang, I really don't know about this matter, from now on, Great William is no longer the earl of our Visigothic Kingdom, and he and his territory are handed over to you to deal with." ”
He was really afraid, and he began to deliberately curry favor with Tang Ping all the way.
Yes, Tang Ping is only a duke, and he is a king.
But so what? Wasn't the more powerful Arab king also sent back to the Tang Dynasty by Tang Ping to retire?
He felt that he was still young and not yet to the point of retirement.
It would be totally worth it to give up a Great William and Watt City if it could appease Tang Ping's anger.
