Amid the cheers of all the guests, a flushed Alan walked out of the church with Edward in his arms around his shoulders, the melodious bells already ringing - the bells of the church and the castle tower had been ringing since the morning in celebration of the wedding that had caused a sensation in The Hague Castle.

Although compared to Alan's coming-of-age ceremony in Turin, this wedding seems very simple, even shabby. But both Viscount Otto and Lady Angelica hoped that the wedding would make Alan happy—and as night fell, a great dinner had already begun in the castle.

The brightly lit castle hall has a bright red carpet at the door, leading up to the central staircase, and the hall is large enough to accommodate all the guests. Brightly colored tablecloths are laid out, and silver candles are placed on the dining table. The servants who came out with plates in their hands filled one long table after another with exquisite delicacies.

The chefs in the kitchen who are well-versed in Dominica and West Coast cuisine are showing their mastery of cooking the best delicacies for tonight's guests - the rich South, there is no shortage of all kinds of delicacies and crops, and the fields and pastures all over the wilderness make the tables of the southern lords never less than four courses, even the rich in the city of Turin dare not claim to be able to eat more sumptuous than the southern farmers.

Butter honey bread, butter radish, foie gras soaked in red wine, cream herring, pigeon pie, bacon trout roll...... A variety of smiling delicacies filled almost every corner of the table, and a few skilled servants poured wine for the guests, all in delicate glass gall bottles, the bright red colors of which were incomparably wonderful just to look at.

Underneath the dazzling nine chandeliers. The light lute and flute play pleasant notes. Roast suckling pig and roast chicken are also placed on the grill of the fireplace. The delicious aroma of meat accompanied by a warm and pleasant wind spread throughout the golden hall. Jars of cider and ale are stacked on both sides of the hall, waiting for guests to come and pick them up.

Extravagantly dressed aristocrats and ladies and gentlemen sat in front of their seats with great interest, enjoying the pleasure of being surrounded by delicious food. Savor all the delicacies with relish - as with all feasts, there is nothing more enjoyable for them than to enjoy delicious food.

In the center, Viscount Otto Kwyn and Lady Angelica sat the two most noble guests of the banquet - Commander Greene Turn, who had traveled thousands of miles from Turin, and Sir Ellet, heir to the Millard family.

Naturally, the two of them enjoyed the highest level of hospitality throughout the banquet, especially Sir Ellet Millard, who was one of the leaders of the banquet. Little Goodwin naturally knew the alliance between this Sir Ellert and Lord Edward, and without the other party's cold suspicions and extremely close cooperation, the port of The Hague would not have been able to win the powerful Minest in this "food war".

I don't know why, from the beginning of the wedding, Greene Turn, from the beginning to the end, sat there without saying a word, sipping wine, enjoying the food on the plate in front of him, which was completely different from his behavior at the Allen coming-of-age banquet, as if he had suddenly become some kind of personable scholar.

It seems that after the riots in Turin, even Greene Turn, has become wiser, thought to Mrs. Angelica, who sat next to him. It was clear to all the guests present who the commander of the capital garrison had come to the south on his behalf. Therefore, everyone is afraid of him, and the more he remains silent in this state. The more everyone doesn't dare to relax easily, for fear that they will be caught because of some of their actions.

Apparently even Sir Ellet himself regarded this banquet as a celebration for himself and Edward, although there was a hint of regret when he casually caught a glimpse of the shy and red-faced blonde girl sitting next to Edward, knowing that it was all his.

But to be able to become the heir of Hantu City, Sir Ellet still knows some trade-offs - without the existence of Edward Witwood, even if he gets the inheritance of the Hague Port, it is also impossible to get rid of the terrible power of the Minest family so quickly, he has already profited a lot in this alliance, and naturally there is no reason to ask too much.

But...... If this guy disappears, won't it all be his own again?" With a hint of greed in his eyes, Sir Ellet smiled at Alan and raised his glass, then drank it down: "I wish you and the honorable Viscount Edward Wickwood happiness and health, dear Miss Ellen!"

"I wish you happiness and good health, Sir Ellert. Allen, who was sitting on the throne, smiled a little reluctantly, she knew very well what she should do tonight, no matter what, she had to maintain enough demeanor and appearance, and she couldn't let her father and mother ...... And the guy next to him, who lost his dignity in front of these southern magnates.

Seeing the girl's serious appearance, Edward couldn't help but laugh a little, and was about to say something to Allen, but Lady Angelica grabbed her shoulder.

"Ma'am, what are you doing here?" Edward, who lowered his voice, pretended that nothing had happened and drank a glass of cherry wine: "There are so many people present, are you going to kill me at such a time?"

"If I had intended to kill you, I would have done it when you came to Fort Hague. Lady Angelica snorted, "But maybe it's not too late. ”

"But now that you are the future heir of Fort Hague-don't think too much about it, a small squire can get so much love from the Radiant Cross, and cherishing what is in front of you is what you should do!" Lady Angelica's voice was cold: "The Minest family can allow your greed, but it is impossible for you to try to challenge our position, whether it is father Hollard, or anyone from the Minest family!"

"I never wanted to challenge the Minest family - just so that Alan could have a more comfortable life. Edward smiled calmly, "Maybe you should be more wary of the Millal family, just if I provoke a little, they can't wait to try to oppose the Minest family." ”

"Do you still need to say this?" said Lady Angelica, her charming eyes shining gracefully, as if they were fleeting fireflies.

"Edward, what's wrong?" The perceptive Allen almost immediately sensed that something was not quite right with the guy next to him, and his jewel-like eyes blinked, "It can't be that you drank too much wine, right?"

"Men generally do only two things at weddings, my dear Alan. Edward laughed teasingly: "I got drunk, and then carried my newlywed wife to bed!"

"I am not going to do the first thing - I don't like to lose my mind, and fortunately there are not many people who are going to make me drunk, but I am going to do the latter firmly and perfectly, and without delay. It's almost midnight now, and it's time for you to go to bed, little Alan. ”

"Just, won't!" Allen pursed his lips: "I'm not a kid anymore, I know when I should go to bed!"

"Of course I don't doubt that, but let me send you back to bed to-day—or I'm afraid you'll be dancing in a moment." Edward laughed, "Maybe our Miss Allen would prefer to show off her 'unique' dancing?"

The blonde girl, who was so embarrassed that she couldn't do anything, finally obediently followed her "husband" away, and walked through the corridor until she sent the girl back to her room, and Edward, who was standing outside the door, finally waited for the guy he had been waiting for, the attendant who had quietly come out of the corner, and bowed down respectfully.

"Please come with me, Viscount Edward, Lord Greene Turn, waiting for you. (To be continued......)
