Memory (9)
The dinner was held at the Diplomatic Pavilion of the Haiqin Kingdom, a beautiful building, with stained printed glass, spliced marble slabs that raised the value of the building to a notch, and a chandelier in the shape of a tree that placed on the dome of the Diplomatic Pavilion, from which a dazzling brown light illuminated the entire Diplomatic Pavilion, which was full of people and noisy, and the attendants in charge of serving wine hurried through the crowd, greeting them with smiling faces. As soon as Merlinta entered, a steward in a black dress greeted him and gave a simple etiquette, asking if he wanted tequila.
Melinta was about to take the mouth-watering drink when a cough came from behind her, and Melinta waved her hand. The steward smiled and walked away, and Merlin Tower and Onishi came to a corner of the place, which was the place that Mei Ling Tower had exchanged for a piece of gold coin, and on a round table covered with a white cloth, incense smelled of heavenly seaweed.
"That wine was very fragrant just now, I want to taste what it tastes like." Mellinta held her head and complained.
"Don't forget what we're here for, not for a drink." The ghost lowered the brim of his hat and whispered.
"How does it look like there's an intruder here? I see you drank too much before you came. Mellinta said dissatisfiedly. He played with the saber in his hand, waiting for the intruder in the mouth of the ghost. "By the way, how did you know there was an intruder?" Merlinta looked at the ghost curiously.
"I don't know." The ghost said casually, his eyes were always scouting his surroundings, alert to his every move.
"Don't know?" Mei Lingta was stunned, this is really an absurd answer that can no longer be absurd, risking being discovered by the king to come to this dinner party and wait for the so-called invaders, a word of not knowing, success made Mei Lingta speechless for a moment, I don't know why I came.
"Please, can you be reliable, you don't know what you're doing here, the king is looking for you." Melinta frowned, the corners of her eyes twitching slightly, as if a crow was chirping overhead, leaving a string of black dots. "Forget it, you must have your reasons for doing this." Merlinta spread her hands, and it seemed that her curiosity had hit a wall here in the ghost style. He believed that if he killed the ghost, he would not tell him why he knew that there was an intruder, and he would not let himself tell the king, although he had always listened to the ghost, and if the ghost asked him to kill the king, he would go, even if the country perished, he would not care. But he still wanted the country to develop better, so when he heard that there was an intruder, if it wasn't for the ghost style pulling him, he would have told the king long ago, Merlinta never knew what kind of medicine was sold in the ghost gourd.
"Ladies and gentlemen. Everyone is welcome to come to the dinner. Now I want to announce one thing. The host announced the start of the dinner on the stage against an iron metal speaker. The audience was silent, and the originally noisy banquet immediately quieted down, waiting for what the host was about to announce.
"All of you are powerful people of the Haiqin Kingdom, and we are gathered here because of the victory of a war, and the Varcala Kingdom, as our friendly neighbor, helps us to restrain the enemy country, and its victory declares peace in our capital." The host talked eloquently, his eyebrows fluttering, obviously he did not know the real reason for the victory in this war. "At the same time, today is the birthday of our great lord." The host shouted hoarsely, the audience resounded with enthusiastic cheers, the women covered their mouths and snickered, and the men raised their wine glasses to clink glasses to express the joy in their hearts.
"Let us applaud the princess of Haiqin, Sofina will give you a speech." The moderator bowed, made a gesture of please, and stepped back.
Cheers and applause rang out like a raging wave, and what could excite these people was the appearance of their great king's daughter, the beautiful Princess Sofina. Princess Sofina was carrying a blue skirt, and her graceful figure attracted the men at the banquet to stand up and stretch out their heads to watch, while the women looked at the newly enthusiastic men around them with a stiff smile. His golden hair was draped behind him like a pouring waterfall, his delicate face was blown apart, his eyes were smart, and his cherry-like mouth was smeared with a wisp of red.
"He's such a beauty." Melinta looked at the princess on the stage not far away, and couldn't help but admire.
"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your dedication to the Haiqin Kingdom, and everyone can drink as much as you like at tonight's banquet." As soon as the princess finished speaking, there was another round of applause and cheers from the audience. Old people sit around talking about the war, men clink glasses and drink, and women around them raise glasses and talk. The princess wore her skirt and faded out of sight.
Merlintar was still immersed in the princess's dedication, and after the ghostly cough sounded, she sat up awkwardly, and brought herself a glass of orchid wine on the table, and coughed as soon as she took a sip.
"Phew! What a broken wine. "Orchid wine, the special liquor of Varcalla, because Varkara is located in the far north of northern Europe, people near the north have achieved the effect of heating by drinking spirits to raise their body temperature in a cold environment.
Mellinta grumbled a few times and put the wine aside, looking around impatiently.
