Chapter 74: The Banquet

0512 Universe, Persian Qajar Dynasty, Spolis Palace, lavish banquet hall.

The English symphony orchestra, the heavy sound of the cello, made King Nasser al-Din dizzy.

From the musician's platform at the bottom of the hall, the wailing of the flute, the trills of the pipes, the screams of the violins and the roar of the horns were heard at the same time, but it was the sound of the cello that gave him goosebumps all over his body.

A jumble of tunes echoed through the house, and the guests ate and drank noisily.

King Nasser-al-Din, forcibly tolerated bad music.

Because this is the orchestra that Sadie, the aristocratic leader of the Queen Mother's faction, that idiot with a confused sexual orientation, forcibly recommended.

Thankfully, it's all going to end tonight.

…………

He looked at the burly and bloated Nobunaga dove puppet who was sipping wine.

The captain of the undead army has already drunk the third bottle of wine, and his black robe is full of sharp toothed mouthparts, and in three years, the nobles have become strange to this rigid and boring deformed freak......

King Nasser al-Din thought, "Don't pretend to be a fool, you are drunk. ”

…………

The rain continued outside, but the air inside the city was getting hotter.

The fireplace in the hall rose to the flames, and the torches in a row of iron platforms on the wall burned black smoke.

More heat is dissipated by the banquet guests, and the whole banquet is very crowded due to the large number of people and the lack of benches.

The nobles of the Queen Mother's faction, high-ranking monks and high-ranking military officers in Tehran, the governors of the court, the upper technocrats of the kingdom, and high-ranking political officials......

This is the grandest banquet since King Nasser al-Din succeeded to the throne.

…………

The first course of the feast is mushroom bisque, followed by a salad of green peas, onions and beets.

River fish stewed with almond milk, roast duck, crushed lettuce piled up in a hill shape – this dish is cold before it is served, congealed cow brain and beef tendon.

King Nasser al-Din tasted some ox brains, only to feel his stomach churn.

Compared to the Sapporo ramen at Yangsen Restaurant, these are the fodder for the animals.

King Nasser al-Din, the mood was even more irritable.

Damn it!

These rumors are once again confirmed.

The faction of the Queen Mother not only permeated the entire bureaucracy, aristocracy, royal family, army, but also the court, and the head chef was the nephew of the Queen Mother's lover.

The chef is stingy with food but generous when it comes to drinks. Ale, wine, and mead are like the river below the city.

The aristocratic leader of the Queen Mother's faction, Sadie, the bastard, sang drunkly, and he drank glass after glass with the monks around him.

"Drink, drink...... Enjoy the last ...... of wine"

King Nassr al-Din looked at Sa'di's ugly state, took a sip of the spicy liqueur, and muttered softly.

………………………………

The heat, smoke, and noise disgusted King Nasser-al-Din, and the musicians on the balcony were inexplicably noisy and surprisingly incompetent.

King Nasser al-Din toasted the glass of wine and filled the wine again, and lasted for an hour.

"Your Majesty, the time is up......"

Wearing a white mask and being as black as rubber, the burly and bloated Nobunaga Hato, with six undead soldiers, came to King Nasser-al-Din.

King Nasser al-Din nodded, knocked on the silver cup, raised the glass, and said:

"Ladies and gentlemen, drink this cup to the fullest. There's a bit of military intelligence to deal with outside, damn the Cossack cavalry, and it's in the northern pastures of the Alpoz Mountains again......"

The guests raised their glasses one after another and signaled: "To the great king!" ”

"Prince Kerman, I'll leave the banquet to you below, and you can entertain everyone for me." King Nasser al-Din said with a smile to his younger brother, Prince Kerman, who served as a military adviser.

Prince Kerman stood up and said, "I can give you some help in military matters. ”

King Nasser al-Din pressed him by the shoulder, pressed him back into his seat, and said in a low voice:

"Tomorrow afternoon we will discuss the matter of the Cossack cavalry. You're in charge of today's feast, the music here is so loud, I'm going out to breathe, dear brother. ”

Prince Kerman raised his glass: "Don't worry, I will make the banquet a success." To be honest, the music here is terrible......"

At this time, the servants brought huge silver plates, filled with blood-red and juicy leg of mutton, piled high.

It was one of the best dishes of the night.

…………

King Nasser al-Din led his guards to the gate, and the attendants on both sides tried to open the door of the banquet hall, but they could not open it.

"What's going on?" King Nasser-al-Din's voice was a little nervous.

According to the plan, the next second generation Nobunaga Hado will take the undead army and kill in the banquet hall.

Kill all these damned Queen Mother's faction bureaucrats, royal nobles, monks, and that Sadi and Prince Kerman......

"Your Majesty, this ......," replied the attendant,

King Nasser al-Din pushed aside his attendants to find two chains like snakes, wrapped around the hall's bulky gilded doorknob.

One of the attendants tried to forcibly pull away, and the scythe at the other end of the chain, as if he had found that the target was a cobra, slashed open half of the squire's palm.

…………

At this time, the sound of the symphony orchestra suddenly stopped......
