Chapter 114: The Roman Empress? I don't have a good (ask for subscription)
That evening, they were invited to the palace for a dinner hosted by Nero.
Although it was a celebratory dinner, there was no limit to the number of people and qualifications, it was just an ordinary social banquet, which was attended by any nobleman with a title in the city of Rome.
For a time, there was an endless stream of luxurious carriages and neatly dressed nobles in front of the palace.
Most of them had never been to the battlefield, and they were not even in the army, but they had the cheekiness to attend Nero's celebration banquet just to get close to the other nobles and Nero.
However, those who should enjoy the food, be treated with courtesy, and talk about battlefield exploits at the wine table can only look at those pot-bellied and fat nobles walking into the palace with envy, but they themselves have to hold their spears and stick to their posts at the door.
Liu Yuan looked at the soldiers standing at the gate of the palace and sighed secretly.
This is the insurmountable class gap in ancient times, and even the soldiers themselves do not feel wrong, because they have been educated in this way since childhood. When they have made a fortune, become nobles, and get rid of the status of commoners, everything will be different.
Liu Yuan heard Olga Marie's urging, put away his sentimental thoughts, and trotted to follow them.
Needless to say, they know how conspicuous their team can be.
Matthew, Olga Marie, Medusa, Tamamo Cat, Joan of Arc, and Enkidu are not to mention the beauties, but at the front is Venal Apocalis, the oldest noble general in Rome. And the one who stayed behind and talked to those beauties was the captain of the guards of His Royal Highness Nero, Liu Yuan, the red man next to Nero.
The nobles along the way saw that they were all out of the way, and Liu Yuan could see that many of his peers were looking at him with envy and jealousy.
In their opinion, Liu Yuan, who is close to them in age but has reached a high position, and was personally given the title of baron by His Royal Highness Nero, is obviously the 'child of someone else' in the mouth of his parents. What is powerless is that Liu Yuan was able to get his current status not by family and luck, but by his merits from scratch.
This....... You can't find the black spots even if you want to be black.
The only thing that can be said is that he was included in the Guards at a glance by His Highness Nero on the side of the road, but who would dare to blame Nero's decision.
As they entered the hall, there were already a lot of people gathered in the hall, sitting on the low tables on either side of the hall and laughing and talking.
It was not a whim or a deliberate effort on Nero's part to sit on the floor for the nobles, which was itself a tradition of large banquets. And even if you want to arrange chairs, it may be crowded due to the size of the hall, so you can't let the big people sit on a stool.
In the Middle Ages, there were even chairs to sit on at the edge of the corner, and everyone ate and chatted standing up, and then cleaned up the venue for dancing.
As soon as they entered the door, Liu Yuan and Wiener saw the figures of Delissa and Golon, and the other party also saw them, smiled, and walked over.
After greeting the two, Liu Yuan took the women to greet Nero, who was sitting on the throne and dragging his chin carelessly.
"Your Highness, you look like you're bored." Liu Yuan laughed.
Nero's eyes lit up when he saw Liu Yuan coming, and then he complained with a bitter face: "Hey! Not to mention, just came back today, those old men of the Senate came to find Yu's trouble, from the afternoon to now, Yu only took time to take a shower, and the rest of the time was wasted on arguing with those old guys. Sometimes I really want to kill something with a sword, anyway, those old perverts who are addicted to brothels all day long don't do anything, it's better to change some fresh blood. β
"Those annoying parliamentary parties." Liu Yuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, "If His Highness wishes, we can secretly ....... at night"
Liu Yuan scratched his neck with his right hand, which is self-evident.
Nero looked at him deeply, and then laughed sneeringly: "Liu Yuan, Liu Yuan, sometimes Yu Zhen thinks you are a madman." The people we are talking about are all people under one person and above ten thousand. β
Liu Yuan replied with a smile: "Your Highness, what are you talking about, aren't we talking about the rats that slipped into the warehouse?" β
β....... Poofhahaha!! Mouse, hahaha, actually said it was a mouse! Nero grinned as he held his belly, attracting the attention of many people, but no one found it indecent.
Matthew and Olga Marie, who were behind Liu Yuan, looked at the two of them in a complicated manner. Naturally, they who were closest to them heard the conversation, and they knew who Nero's laughing 'mouse' was referring to. For Liu Yuan's murderous eyes in his smile, he felt a burst of palpitations and strangeness.
He's really changed a lot in the past six months.
Nero laughed for a long time before stopping, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and patted Liu Yuan's shoulder hard, "You are very good, Liu Yuan, you are worthy of Yu's captain, Yu hasn't laughed like this for a long time." β
Nero looked at Liu Yuan with appreciative and even pampering eyes, but then suddenly his face turned straight and said seriously: "You are not allowed to say what you said a second time just now, if you still want to live." β
Liu Yuan also restrained his smile: "I know, Your Highness." This palace is full of parliamentary eyeliners, and I don't make a fool. β
"It's good to understand." Nero raised his chin, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you are caught by them, as long as you come to be the queen of Yu, those old men will not dare to touch you no matter how bold they are." β
"Queen!?" β
Matthew and Olga Marie, who were eavesdropping with their ears in the back, couldn't help but exclaim.
Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness, please don't make this kind of joke, it's not good for your heart." β
"Hahaha, let Yu tease and there won't be a piece of meat!"
Whew, it turned out to be just a joke.
Matthew and Olga Marie exhaled in unison.
At this time, a squeamish voice suddenly came from behind.
"Nero! You're finally back and miss you! β
Liu Yuan turned his head and saw that the girl who spoke was Elizabeth. She waved her little hand in this direction as she ran briskly.
Nero's face also showed real joy, and he stood up to greet him: "Oooh! Isn't this Yu's bosom friend Yili! β
Elizabeth came up and hugged Nero, then looked at Liu Yuan in surprise and said, "Oh, little piglet, are you back alive?" β
"Uh...... Well. Liu Yuan didn't know how to react, and pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly.
"....... these people behind you?" Elizabeth looked curiously at the strange heroic spirit who was following Liu Yuan.
Liu Yuan took the opportunity to introduce Matthew and them to Elizabeth, and then greeted Nero and withdrew.
Elizabeth affectionately pulled Nero to ask long questions, Nero responded, and seemed to inadvertently glance at Liu Yuan's back as he left, and when she saw Matthew and Olga Marie who were close to him, she narrowed her eyes unhappily.
"Nero, where are you looking, are you listening to me?"
"Oh, I'm sorry, Ellie, I'm distracted."
"Well, is it so boring to talk to me?!"
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, you go on, I'll listen to it this time."
"Okay, listen to me, someone brought me a fawn yesterdayβ"
