Chapter 223: Alice's Smile

The next morning, Gervais got up early.

As soon as Gervais stepped out of the room, a manservant respectfully stopped him.

It turned out that Gervais, as Alice's husband, of course could not behave as casually as usual, Alice had already prepared a dress for Gervais, and this servant had come to ask Gervais to change his clothes.

After changing into a dark dress in the dressing room, which is considered to be the best in the world in terms of workmanship and texture, Gervais went downstairs.

Not to mention, wearing this brand-new dress suddenly made Gervais's image improved again.

When Gervais came to the first floor of the castle, he found that all the servants in the castle were in a busy state, and the entire corridor of the inner castle was full of servants in brand new clothes, these servants were either carrying things or hurrying by, obviously preparing for tonight's banquet, which suddenly made Gervais feel the excitement of the castle in this world for the first time since he crossed over.

On weekdays, as the residence of the noble lord, the inner castle has always been quiet and empty, and the servants dare not make the slightest noise when they walk, but today there is no restriction in this inner castle.

Gervais walked through the long corridor to the restaurant, and found that he still seemed to be a little late, only to see that the restaurant at this moment was much more lively than last night, and it was almost unattended, Gervais looked up for a long time, and finally found Gandalf and Pat and others, and it happened that Pat also happened to be at the same table with Gandalf and others today.

After having breakfast with the others, Gervais hurried to the Colosseum with all his guards and a carriage with Gandalf and Pat.

Coming to the street in the southern district, this red leaf street has changed its appearance today, all the shops on both sides of the street have been removed, and every few dozen meters there is a heavily armed soldier standing, and the soldier is accompanied by a rose flag fluttering in the wind.

Gervais and the others were crowded with people rushing to the Colosseum, with nobles walking in the middle of the avenue on horseback or in carriages, and commoners walking on both sides of the street.

Although many small nobles were unable to attend the evening banquet, the daytime events were held in the Colosseum, which could accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time, so anyone could go and watch it as long as they bought a ticket.

When Gervais and his party arrived at the door of the gladiatorial arena, they were quickly stopped by Anna's little maid, who was Alice who had left Anna here to wait for Gervais.

Under the leadership of Anna, Gervais and Gandalf and others came to the third floor of the gladiatorial arena, but Gervais and the others were not sitting on the side of the gladiatorial arena as they did a few days ago, but were directly taken by Anna to the central stand of the gladiatorial arena.

The Colosseum Central Stand is usually closed to the public, only on important occasions and with the permission of the Count.

The central grandstand is a jumping platform-like design, extending from the rear wall, only a few dozen meters away from the gladiatorial arena, supported by eight stone pillars held by three people, where you can not only see everything in the arena up close, but also because the location is dozens of meters higher than the field, so there is no need to worry about safety at all.

When Gervais and the others came to the central stand, there were already many nobles sitting here, and Alice was already sitting on the main seat in the center of the stand, and there were eight people sitting in a row around her, who were the other seven earl families of the principality and the people sent by the king.

Gandalf and the others were placed in the back row of Alice, and Gervais came directly to an empty spot next to Alice.

"Gervais, you're here!"

When Gervais came to Alice and sat down, Alice smiled at Gervais for the first time.

This ushered in all the surrounding nobles to look sideways.

In an instant, Gervais almost drooled and pulled.

"Is this the city of laughter? It's good that my cheap wife's city is bigger than mine, otherwise I guess I would have had a beacon fire serf for the sake of the Pomeranians......"

It's no wonder that Gervais is such a pig brother, in fact, Gervais is not usually a person who can't walk when he sees a woman, but Alice's smile is too amazing, too breathtaking, and Alice is the appearance of a cold goddess, the impact of this smile on Gervais is beyond limit.

But Gervais certainly doesn't think that Alice is smiling at herself today because she has suddenly become handsome.

Alice's smile should be for the people of the seven earls family present, after all, Alice's every move is now under everyone's attention, if Alice has a flat attitude towards Gervais, then Alice will be able to receive dozens of love letters tomorrow.

No one in this world cares if Alice has a husband or not, they only care if they have a chance, after all, Alice is a real diamond white rich and beautiful, and she can definitely fight for thousands of years without getting it.

"Sorry, I woke up a little late in the morning!"

After a few moments, Gervais finally reacted, and then answered Alice with a smile.

"How's the preparation for today? Is there anything I can do to help? ”

"Lina is all arranged, you just sit here and watch!"

Hearing Gervais's words, Alice's heart was still slightly warm, although the smile on her face had faded, her tone towards Gervais was still soft.

Hearing that he didn't need to help himself, Gervais nodded to Alice, and then began to look around at the nobles.

The people who came from the seven earls this time were all young people's heirs, and none of the counts came in person.

Gervais speculated that except for the lord of the north because he couldn't get away, the other earls probably had contempt because the Jones family had lost the old earl, after all, the Earl's Jones family was also an earl's family, and Alice, as the new earl, had to come in person anyway when he first invited those earls to attend.

It's not about politeness or not, it's about Alice's recognition and affirmation of the Jones family, which is what every new earl should be.

Among the eight delegates present, Gervais knew only two, Caroline and Kevin, who were both representatives of their own family, while the other young Gervais did not know any of them.

When Gervais was looking at these aristocratic youths, they were also looking at Gervais, and from time to time they would whisper to the people they knew well, and the most intense conversation belonged to Kevin.

Kevin's eyes were full of jealousy when he looked at Gervais at the moment, you must know that Kevin and Aliceke are classmates, in the years when they were in school in the royal capital, Alice has never shown such a smile to their male classmates, but now the second son of a baron, who could not even inherit the title, is now pitied by Alice.

"Kevin, is that little white face Gervais? It doesn't look good! ”

A young man next to Kevin asked.

"It's just a lucky little white face!"

Kevin's face was even more ugly, he had pursued Alice for so many years, but in the end he was hugged by Gervais and got a beauty, how could he be happy.

It's like you've worked hard to move bricks for a month, and in the end your salary is paid to someone else, that's what Kevin thinks in his heart at the moment.

Alice chose Gervais as her husband, which not only made Kevin sad, but also made him lose face in front of his friends, in order to save some face, Kevin continued to say to the young man next to him.

"I guess Alice chose him to make it easier to deal with the king's will and then kick him out later, after all, if she chooses an excellent husband, Alice will divorce her husband without a valid reason, and other nobles will gossip behind her back."

"Kevin, what you said is really reasonable, then your chances are still quite big, remember that after success, you can invite me to go to the Falk Manor in the royal capital for a night!"

"Don't say one night, I'll invite you for ten nights, but you have to remember what I told you yesterday!!"

Kevin gritted his teeth as he looked at Gervais, who was sitting next to Alice, and responded to the youth.

"Don't worry! Wrap it up on me! ”
