Chapter 140: Governor's Palace
The Mandel family knelt in front of the Jiang family's mourning hall and mansion for a day and a night, which had no problem with the ship's mother and the members with the blood of the admiral, but most of their faces were flushed, and they didn't dare to raise their heads to be recognized.
And for the rest of the ordinary members, it is a little uncomfortable.
Fortunately, it was now the end of the year, the weather was getting colder, and the head of the family and the main members of the family did not get up, so they gritted their teeth and persevered.
As soon as Rodney closed the door, tears rolled in his eyes, and his eyes looked at the young master from time to time, which made Jiang Yan a little frightened.
"Lao Luo, what are you doing?"
"No..."
"Then why are you staring at me?"
"Oooh. ”
Rodney wiped away his tears and couldn't help but smile happily, his face like a kitten.
After worshipping, closing the door of the mourning hall, Jiang Yan said: "I couldn't catch up four days ago, so let's clean up the house today and go to the regular port." ”
Rodney counted his fingers and said, "Young Master, it will take about an hour." ”
"Well, call me alright. ”
Originally, Lexington liked to do this kind of thing, but this time he didn't come back, Jiang Yan ordered him to come down, so he went back to the study, took out an ancient book to read, and waited.
Not long after, however, Rodney hurried over again, holding a letter in his hand that was trimmed with gold and blue in the sea.
Jiang Yan's expression froze, put down the ancient books and sat up straight from a half-lying position.
"Young master, a letter from the royal family. ”
Rodney handed the rarity over and stood aside, looking a little worried, eager to know the content.
Jiang Yan opened it and looked at it, his brows couldn't help frowning, and said, "Her Majesty asked me to go to the palace port." ”
"Ah!" Rodney was immediately anxious, worried that the direct line of the royal family would be unfavorable to the young master, but he couldn't help but go, so he could only say: "Young master, I'll go with you." ”
"It's fine. ”
Anyway, Rodney has also unloaded, so there is no problem with coming and going.
However, Rodney had just left the door and walked back, hesitated for a moment, and proposed, "Young Master, call Lexington!"
Thinking that the purpose of this meeting with Silan Flower was about the aircraft carrier mother, Jiang Yan immediately contacted Lexington, who was in the regular port, to come back.
Banquet.
Jiang Yan was served and bathed by Rodney at home, changed into a commander's uniform, and then took Lexington to the Yaslan Palace.
Passing through the huge palace garden to the apse, it is not as bright as imagined, and the pomp and circumstance are grand.
In the apse of the royal palace used for the night banquet, there were only two hosts and one guest, Her Royal Highnesses the current Queen and Princess of the Yaslan Empire, and Nelson's Battleship Lady.
Now add three more guests.
Jiang Yan was a little strange, and when he thought about it, even the night patrols around him deliberately bypassed the apse of the palace, and knew in his heart that this was to discuss a more confidential matter.
"Brother Jiang Yan. ”
Layla said with a long skirt and a slightly red face.
The gorgeous black evening gown was wrapped around her chest, revealing Layla's delicate curves, revealing a hint of redness.
A pair of silver-white stiletto heels set off Layla's figure more slender and tall.
Jiang Yan looked stunned, we are all wearing such a formal admiral uniform, Your Royal Highness Princess, it is too wrong for you to wear a banquet evening dress~
couldn't help but glance at the hall again, and began to mutter, what is the idea of this imperial queen and imperial princess?
"Young Master. ”
Nelson hurriedly got up and said respectfully.
Rodney took small steps and walked to his sister's place, his face full of happiness.
Slan Flower's gaze fell on Lexington, and he retracted his gaze after half a sound, and suddenly smiled and said, "Jiang Yan, you haven't been to the backyard of the palace for a long time, have you?" Sit down and try the dinner I asked the chef to prepare!"
In the middle of the main hall is a long dining table.
The two sides sat down on two sides, and countless translucent curtains as thin as cicada's wings hung down, cutting off the main hall from the dining space.
The maid came and lifted the silver lid that had been placed on the table, and then stepped back one by one, leaving only two to wait.
Jiang Yan is a little unaccustomed to it, the royal family puts on this pomp, and if it is Evans Leylo or Hal Oz, they may like it very much.
It's just that you can't lose your courtesy.
Lexington sat indifferently on the side, his eyes sweeping over each plate of food without a trace, thinking in his heart how to make it.
Rodney wanted to serve vegetables for the young master, but he couldn't embarrass the young master in front of Her Majesty the Queen, and he was a little worried.
Nelson, like Jiang Yan, sat still.
Jiang Yan asked aloud, "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness the Princess, what is the matter with summoning me here?"
Silan Huahua smiled lightly: "Jiang Yan, the head of the Evans family said that you are not surprised when you encounter trouble, and you have good patience, why did you come to my palace apse for a while, and you were in such a hurry?"
"For tonight's banquet, the ingredients are all obtained from the deep sea, and many of them have the effect of activating the blood, which happens to be beneficial to you. ”
When Silan Huahua said this, Jiang Yan knew that if he didn't finish dinner, he wouldn't be able to get down to business.
So I put my mind at ease and ate slowly.
These ingredients are precious, and even the other ten families can't easily get them, almost the highest level of hospitality, or if there is any happy event, they will be taken out to welcome guests.
Jiang Yan felt a warm current spread to his whole body along the blood, and he couldn't help but let go of his appetite.
Silan Hua spoke at this moment: "Jiang Yan, the side of the Governor's Mansion has already learned that you have the news of the aircraft carrier Niang, and confirmed it. ”
Jiang Yan nodded when he heard this, there were so many spectators who witnessed the exercise battle four days ago, and it was not too difficult to confirm the news.
He didn't want to hide it, even if he didn't send Lexington to the Mandel family's exercise battle, he would let her attack when the Imperial exercise battle was fierce.
"The Doge's Office convened a meeting of the various members of the empire for this matter, and the end result was not good. Silan Huahua had already put down the utensils at this time, crossed his hands together, and said with a somewhat guilty expression: "Jiang Yan, the Governor's Mansion has asked you to go and take up your post. ”
“・・・”
Jiang Yan was stunned suddenly, and then hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, can I refuse this?"
"No, this is a decision approved by the majority of the members of the Governor's Palace, the Yaslan Empire has not been able to save you, otherwise, do you think I don't want to put you into the Imperial Navy fleet and borrow the power of the aircraft carrier in your hands?" said Silan Flower truthfully.
Jiang Yan was silent for a while, her face was a little ugly, and Layla, who also heard the news for the first time, was also a little flustered.
"But it's not in the near future, the empire also has a place in the council, and what can be won for you is just over a year, and when you are officially an adult, you must take the ship's mother to the governor's palace to serve. ”
"Until then, I can promise you not to requisition the power of Lexington. ”
"Eighteen?" Jiang Yan frowned, and then relaxed a little.
He really hasn't been in contact with the Governor's Palace, and it's easy to think about the problem, the Governor's Mansion will not let such a powerful strategic combat power of an aircraft carrier be used at all.
You must know that there is already an aircraft carrier over there, and with this plus one, the ability to influence the strategic pattern will increase, and it is definitely more than twice as simple.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. ”
Jiang Yan said with heartfelt gratitude.
Anyway, Slan Flower should have been working on this for the past few days, and he was summoned today when he got the results.
Immediately, he asked curiously: "What is the position of the Governor's Palace?"
"Lieutenant of the Annihilation Fleet. ”
