Wearing full leather armor to a party?

There is no need to ask too much, just based on Earl Stewart's reminder, David knows that this so-called party may not be too friendly for him and Sharon.

"However, you can't bring weapons."

No hammer of judgment or firearms, the weapons were kept in the rooms of the inn, with the old alchemist Pierre Newton in charge of the house, and the soldiers left behind by Count Stewart to guard the suite.

David and Sharon rode in the Earl's carriage all the way to a place in the royal capital.

On the way, Earl Stewart didn't say much, and the health consultant Beram only nodded to David and Sharon to show friendship during the initial introduction, and did not talk to David and Sharon too much.

Considering the eagerness shown by this previous chat with Earl Stewart, his quiet today was probably reminded by the earl next to him, and he controlled himself well, and did not eagerly talk to David to deepen his friendship.

It wasn't until the carriage drove for a while that David noticed that the scenery outside was becoming more and more 'desolate', with fewer and fewer buildings, but a large number of large trees that were beginning to turn green.

If it weren't for the fact that the carriage was still running on a flat stone pavement and hadn't passed through any city gates, he would have wondered if it had even reached the outside of the city.

Just as he was thinking this, the carriage was stopped by several soldiers, and a good-looking middle-aged knight carefully looked at the passengers in the carriage before signaling that the carriage was passable.

"This is also the royal capital?"

Through the sentry, David noticed that the walls here were not very tall, and the blocking effect was much greater than the defensive effect, and it was better to say that it was a wall than a wall.

"This is the hunting ground of the royal family." Earl Sutton-Stewart, who had not spoken much, introduced the meeting place: "Of course, today we are not here to hunt, but to have an open-air party. ”

The carriage drove through the hunting grounds for a few more moments, and finally reached its destination.

In fact, there is still a distance from the actual party venue, but it is not possible to take a car on this road, and the Earl Sutton Stewart, who got out of the car, walked in the front, and the health consultant reminded David and Sharon: "Just follow me and don't talk to anyone." ”

What happens when someone opens their mouth to talk to them? Beram didn't say anything, but David immediately figured it out: the people at the party wouldn't talk to him or Sharon at all.

Following Earl Stewart, they soon came to a building after stepping through a wasteland where grass had not yet grown.

It's a building that doesn't tell what it does, and it has no roof, and is surrounded by stone pillars, pools, and a shallow circular pit in the center, maybe a dance floor?

David noticed that there were several stone tables around the area, on which were already placed a lot of fruit and wine jugs, wine glasses, etc.

When Earl Stewart walked in with a few people, there were already some people chatting around him, and Earl Stewart stopped and looked, and then walked straight to one of the small groups.

"Oh, Sutton, it's strange, it's not like you at all, you're usually the last to arrive."

When one of the middle-aged men saw Earl Stewart, he immediately stopped talking to the two people in front of him, and turned around to say hello.

"I went to bed early yesterday." Earl Stewart was also very enthusiastic, greeting the middle-aged man who was a little bowed opposite, and did not ignore the other two: "Didn't you say that you would meet at Duke Campbell's mansion?" Why did you change the place temporarily? ”

"Duke Campbell is suddenly unwell and has no way to hold a party." The middle-aged man's tone couldn't tell whether he was worried about the duke or gloating: "It is said that it was the suggestion of Her Royal Highness the Queen to change to the hunting ground. ”

"I see." After a few words between Earl Stewart and Xie Ding, he turned to greet the others, and chatted with almost everyone along the way, and finally took Beram, Davy, and Sharon to a corner.

The party had been going on since they were here, with no official announcements and no hosts.

As the number of people gradually increased, a band appeared in the scene and played non-stop.

When a few pieces are finished, a new group of players is added to make sure the music doesn't stop.

Occasionally, men and women would dance in the circular arena, but David noticed that the dancers were relatively young men and women, and some older people were more likely to stay around and chat with people.

After observing for a while, he understood that this gathering was actually a place for nobles to socialize, and some less formal matters were suitable for discussion on such occasions.

For example, let the next generation of young people get to know each other; bring your own heirs to recognize the other nobles of the kingdom; It is not excluded that some nobles discussed the marriage of young people here.

"It's kind of boring."

The few people who stayed in the corner were not paying attention, and they chatted in a low voice.

Sharon began to feel bored after observing for a moment, no one would pay attention to them in this place, and when they greeted Earl Stewart everywhere before, all the people here were powerful people in the royal capital. In the eyes of these people, they are no different from the stone pillars that are used as decorations next to them.

"The Earl...... My lord. Glancing at Beram, who was standing next to her, Sharon decided to lip service with proper respect: "Why did you invite us here?" ”

"I don't know."

David was also pondering this question when His Majesty Ebertson-Tiran, King of the Kingdom of Tiran, arrived.

The music stopped, and all the dignitaries present saluted His Majesty the King, who was walking in.

David and Sharon hid behind the crowd and didn't pay attention to them at all, but they still saluted honestly - the etiquette of holding their chests and bowing their bodies, and they didn't need to kneel and kowtow or anything, so the two of them didn't have any resistance.

His Majesty's appearance did not make any special changes to the party, it was still chatting in twos and threes, but His Majesty would keep chatting with different people, until Earl Sutton Stewart and His Majesty the King said something, and the ruler of the Kingdom of Tiran turned his attention to David in the corner.

"Let's go!" Beram, who had been paying attention to Earl Stewart, immediately reminded the two to follow.

David and Sharon did not hesitate and followed Beram directly to the front of His Majesty the King.

Ebertson-Tiran, who waved his hand and signaled that the others should not salute again, was looking at David, and by the way, he looked at Sharon on the side.

"What a brilliant young man." The outstanding looks of the two men made a very good first impression on His Majesty Ebertson-Tiran: "You have established a new village with the Pioneer Order? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" David knew he was asking himself, but when he was looking at Ebelson at himself, David was also looking at the king.

Eberson was in his forties and close to fifty, and his temples were gray, as if he had entered old age. But Eberson has a strong physique, and standing there is like a boulder, giving people a very calm feeling.

At this time, His Majesty looked at himself with eyes that seemed to be able to see everything, and the eyes of the two men soon collided.

Normally, it would be disrespectful for David to look at His Majesty the King, but Eberson didn't seem to care about such a trivial matter, and just asked the next question to himself: "Do you want to upgrade your village to a town?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Your village shouldn't have been established for long!" Eberson could see this in David's age, after all, David was the one who founded the village, not the one who inherited the position of village chief: "Can you already apply for an upgrade?" ”

"I assure Your Majesty that Winter Town will definitely meet the requirements of the Kingdom."

"Wintertown?" Ebelson glanced at Earl Stewart next to him, and Earl Stewart nodded to the side, and immediately a knight came over with a document in his hand and delivered it to King Ebertson.

After opening the document, Eberson only glanced at it a few times, and knew that the content of this document was very detailed, and according to the information recorded on it, this new village called Winter Village did meet all the conditions for upgrading to Winter Town.

Of course, it is impossible for David to write anything on the document, and the official Tiran will directly believe it.

According to the usual practice, the kingdom must send officials to the village to conduct on-the-spot inspections to ensure that the data is consistent with the information filled in the documents, so as to complete the real administrative upgrade work.

If His Majesty the King had said at this time, 'Send someone to Winter Village to have a look', the matter would have been settled, but Ebelson didn't say this, just handed the document back to the knight next to him, and then asked another question: "Do you want Winter Village to be my territory?" ”

"Winter Village is part of the Kingdom of Tiran, and it was originally the domain of His Majesty the King."

This answer made Eberson smile, but he still didn't accept it or not, but asked about the geography of Winter Village and the number of crops produced.

David reported it all truthfully, without exaggerating in the slightest, but even that drew a slight suspicion of scrutiny, which David coped with with the high-yielding crop of potatoes.

His Majesty chatted with a strange young man for a long time, which also aroused the curiosity of the rest of the audience, and everyone looked at Davy, a strange young man, including Queen Rosie Stewart and the little princess Sophia Tiran.

At this moment, Earl Sutton-Stewart suddenly made a suggestion that surprised His Majesty: "Sophia is about to become an adult, and maybe Winter Town can become the domain of Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
