Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
There are poems and songs in this world, but due to cultural differences, Lu Chen really can't accept the talents of those young nobles, fortunately, there is no emphasis on literature and light on martial arts like the Great Song Dynasty, and it is still based on personal strength, but this is at the banquet, no one will be stupid to hold a sword to compete, basically playing some small games to compete for fighting strength.
Of course, there are also some war games that are deduced on the sand table, after all, in addition to their own strength, military strategy is also an indispensable and important part of making contributions. Lu Chen, who had just played many video games, couldn't arouse any interest in looking at the "sand game" below, and yawned inadvertently.
"Why, if you are bored with us women, go down and play with them. Seeing Lu Chen's sleepy appearance, Niriya spoke very kindly.
It's just that Lu Chen was frightened a lot, and immediately opened the topic and said, "No, it's just that I'm a little tired of watching." The hall below seems to be full, so can you just keep playing until the dinner begins?"
"Yes, it has always been like this, and for most people, there is only one opportunity every year, and it is also appropriate to give them a time to show their time, and sometimes they can indeed feel a few good talents, such as the young man on the third table of the sand table, who has won five games in a row, but this time there are half more people who come to the celebration dinner than in previous years, and it is estimated that he will not last for ten consecutive wins. "It's one thing to know the ability of this son-in-law, but Niriya, who has not seen it with her own eyes, still can't help but want to test it, and deliberately chooses a powerful object.
"Is there a reward for ten consecutive wins? It's him!" Looking in the direction pointed by the princess's mother-in-law, Lu Chen immediately recognized that person was the talented earl who couldn't get along with him at the gate of the palace.
"Huh. You even know someone from the Gallagher family. Ten wins in a row. Or take first place in a game. Naturally, there are rewards, and more importantly, you can choose a favorite partner as a dance partner on the spot, which is a good opportunity to pursue a girl who is usually difficult to meet. There was some surprise, but seeing the slight displeasure on Lu Chen's face, he felt that this opportunity was good, and Niriya continued to guide with great enthusiasm.
"I don't know, he was in trouble when he came in. He replied first, and then saw that there were still many people in the hall below who would look at the girls around him from time to time who were chatting with the concubines. Lu Chen, who had a large bead of sweat hanging on his head, asked, "What will happen if the chosen girl refuses?"
"There's no consequence, it's just a missed opportunity. The rumors about him are still good, why are you in trouble, does he want to rob your girl?" Niriya seemed to be joking and stimulated Lu Chen again.
In the smile of the princess's mother-in-law, who did not lose her true womanly nature, Lu Chen, who didn't know that she was intentionally tricked, simply explained the little trouble born at the gate of the palace without a choice, and then saw that the talented earl, who had won another game, happened to turn his head towards him, and his eyes were full of provocation.
"Lowenstein Gallagher, just twenty-one, the sole legal heir to the Grand Duke of Clettu. He was unremarkable at the academy, or he may have deliberately hidden his strength, leaving the academy at the age of sixteen and joining his father's local army for training. When he returned for his final graduation test at the age of eighteen, he had as many medals on his right as he does now, and he was made a local baron by virtue of his ability. The current earl title, I heard that before the royal city was besieged, he led people to annihilate an imperial reconnaissance battalion, although it may be a little untrue, and it is not as good as you at all, but among many young people, his ability is still very outstanding. By the way, my daughter is just an adult, and he may have come for her, so it's no wonder that he has been staring at this place since he entered the scene, and it seems that he is showing me his talents. ”
Looking at the princess's mother-in-law facing the hall with a calm smile, she quietly told herself all the basic information of the other party, and pretended not to know the relationship between her daughter and herself, and helped him provoke her son-in-law in the end, Lu Chen really had the urge to hit the wall, but he could also understand the psychology of his mother-in-law's love, so he could only curb the idea of "grabbing her collar and yelling that your daughter is already my person", and replied honestly: "The teacher is strict, I can only play magic, and I have never learned this kind of game on paper." ”
"Sounds like there's a little story. Hehe, it seems that you don't have optical magic either, but it seems that it is more practical to use 'talking on the sand' here, and it is not good, not as smooth as you. Niriya's gaze withdrew from the hall and fell curiously on Lu Chen's body.
accidentally slipped his mouth again, but what made Lu Chen more concerned was the insight of the princess's mother-in-law, who could guess that there was an allusion behind it in the case of cultural differences, and then when the provocation in the eyes of the current Lowenstein turned into resentment, he confessed the tragic story of the Warring States Period that had long been indiscriminate on the earth to please his mother-in-law, and as a result, the killing of 400,000 Zhao Guo's light and elite people made everyone around him gasp and snap their fingers.
"The entire sixty-six legions, all of which have exceeded the total number of legions in the kingdom, this one named Bai Qi is really worthy of the title of the king of murder, and the one named Zhao Kuo is really unlucky, it is not counted as a victim of politics, and he was left with such an evaluation, alas, pitiful. However, are you sympathetic to him, and your story and those four words seem to be a bit wrong. Niria looked at the son-in-law with some amusement. Although I don't think it's a piece of history, my intuition tells her that this story is true, and the important thing is that it shows that Lu Chen really has a family behind him that is older than his Atlas, especially Bai Qi, Zhao Kuo and other titles, which are obviously the same category as his name.
Historical events can only end with a sentence of "to be verified", because most of the records are completed by the victors and descendants, and once there are political factors, no one can say how much ability Zhao Kuo has, so Lu Chenxian, who has invested in self-affection, is looking for trouble again, and can only explain it again: At that time, there was no such thing as "paper", and this statement was added by later people, just to metaphorically talk about theories can not solve practical problems.
"That's right, who knows if it's true or false if you haven't experienced it yourself. Well, since our little marquis doesn't just talk on paper, then go down with me, the time is almost up, and it's time to say hello to some important courtiers. After saying that, Niriya stretched out her hand, and with Lu Chen's comprehension, she stood up gracefully, greeted the other concubines and walked out of the box.
Subsequently, after following the princess's mother-in-law through the dinner hall and being introduced to some powerful nobles, Lu Chen realized that this kind of entertainment is one of the tasks of the princess and the heir to the throne, after all, in a limited time, the king and queen can't take care of so many people, and the bustling crowd is very easy to cause danger;
It was only at this time that he saw that this mother-in-law was completely attacked by herself, so she spared no effort to introduce herself in front of the major nobles, and at the same time, Lu Chen also realized that Nireya was the only one exercising the responsibilities and obligations of the princess, and it was obvious that her position in the harem was a monopoly.
However, just as he passed by the sand table game, a resentful gaze made Lu Chen involuntarily turn his head, and then in the gap of the crowd, he saw Lowenstein's angry eyes.
