Chapter 34: Collectively isolated
On this night, the street in front of the banquet was full of traffic, and many city lords' honor guards were dispatched to directly surround the street, but this did not prevent the people from moving outside.
On such a lively day, everyone wants to join in the fun, and the vendors are very witty, and they often set up stalls on the side to sell.
Sora sat in the expensive carriage specially prepared by the country of Sula, and only waited for half an hour to line up to enter the banquet.
The one who maintained the order of the banquet was an old acquaintance, the post chief Tian Jinming.
Seeing him, Sara sighed that there was a strong force behind this person. It is not strong, the people on the island have the best face, especially the emperor's family, just like that, Tian Jinming was not even held accountable.
"City Lord, please come in." Tian Jinming's face couldn't help but be proud, and his mustache was curled.
He has the ability to get out, but she is different, it is not so easy to come out when she enters the banquet today, and she has to shed her skin if she doesn't die.
Sora was noncommittal, and walked into the banquet hall with a smile.
With her, there is also Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru ate the Hidden Pill, and for a full month, the human breath lingered, and he didn't bother when he entered the city, and he never came out of his residence after that, and the emperor's family never found him. Today's banquet was heavily guarded, and he was immediately recognized as a youkai.
No matter how much the breath is hidden, you know it's a monster by looking at it!
"Ahh Tian Jinming was so frightened that he retreated again and again.
Many wizards with spiritual powers quickly gathered around.
Ordinary humans can only speculate whether a monster is powerful or not from its appearance, and wizards with spiritual power are different, and as soon as they look at Sesshomaru, they feel that this is a big demon.
It's just that he has the breath of a human all over his body. It's hard to be successful, it's Salo deliberately.
Chiyoda is such a big demon, why didn't there be any news before. Akabane Masaya frowned, his heart heavy.
"Your Excellency came to my human realm, dare to ask what is the so-called matter?"
Sora is here to attend the banquet, not to stir up the situation, and when he saw this, he took the initiative to stand up: "He is my male companion, can't he go in?" ”
All the city lords who participated in the banquet today brought female companions, and the purpose was not for anything, it was just to humiliate Suara, but to say that, they can all bring female companions, why can't she bring male companions.
Akabane Yaya had actually guessed a long time ago, but at the moment it was just certain, walked up to Tian Jinming and muttered in his ear, and glanced at Sesshomaru from time to time.
Tian Jinming looked at Suo Luo's eyes and changed several times, and finally nodded and personally entered the banquet to ask for instructions.
The wizard didn't dare to offend Killing Pill, what else could he do except let him in.
Sesshomaru hadn't spoken since he came here, and at the moment he just lifted his eyelids and glanced at the human.
"My host said that the visitor was a guest, and invited this ...... My lord, come with the lord of the city of Sara and me. Tian Jinming didn't know what to call Sesshomaru, so he could only use the word adult instead.
"Let's go." Sora had no intention of entanglement with the little minions, and surrendered his identity to himself.
Tian Jinming led the way in front, and Sara and Sesshomaru walked into the banquet hall side by side.
Before she came, many of the city lords had come early, and at this moment, they were sitting in the banquet hall and just watched her and a youkai walk in.
The mountain ghosts used by Duyan Sara defeated the Tata Kingdom, who would have thought that she would be able to bring monsters to the banquet.
The curvature of the corners of Suoluo's mouth was generous and decent, and when she saw so many people looking at her, she greeted her politely: "It seems that I came late, everyone came so early." ”
What she said made people wonder what to say.
Enthusiastically reply to her, too aggrieved, sneering, weighing the big demon around her.
Sesshomaru was born tall and handsome, and he may not be able to see it when he stands alone, standing next to the petite Suara, his face is better, not to mention his posture is tall.
In the uprightness, there is an innate sense of relaxation.
Tian Jinming, as a powerful subordinate monster of the nobleman, knows which monsters are not easy to mess with, but after all, he has less knowledge, which of these present is not well-informed, and as soon as he sees Killing Pill, he knows that this is a great demon.
Not to mention the complete transformation at a young age, he has a noble temperament, and he is not a noble son in the demon clan, but he was chased away by Suoluo.
White-haired and white-clothed, this made the emperor can't help but think of the western country. It is a country sheltered by youkai and opposite to the east.
"It's not too late, the banquet is about to start, you and this lord should sit down quickly." Men refuse to stand up for the Lord's business, and the work of hospitality ultimately falls to women.
The queen was wearing heavy makeup, and when she heard the voice, she invited Sara and Sesshomaru to sit down.
Everyone else was seated, and Sara naturally agreed, saying thank you, and took Sesshomaru to the side and sat down on the rearranged seat.
The seats were rearranged, and if Sesshomaru didn't come, her seating arrangement could be imagined, and Sara remained silent.
At the banquet, everyone knelt on the ground, and she sat cross-legged according to the customs.
The low table was already full of dishes, and Sara saw at a glance that there was nothing to eat.
Outside the door, a group of dancers came in to dance.
After some first encounters, the banquet finally became lively, and the left and right sides were still opposite, and the city lords were staggered.
The female companions brought by the city lords got together in twos and threes and chatted enthusiastically.
Everywhere else is busy, but here is Suara, which is deserted, and Sesshomaru is not a person who likes to talk, so it seems even quieter.
Sesshomaru sensed the undercurrent of the banquet surging, and his eyebrows furrowed.
If you want to make things difficult for a person, there is not only one way to ridicule with words, such as the current isolation is a very common method, if you come to a person who is not strong-willed, you will fall straight down emotionally.
The emperor and the other city lords looked down on Suara, and they were afraid of the monsters she brought, so they could only disgust her so much, and the key was disgusting.
When the news of tonight's banquet spreads, her reputation will inevitably plummet.
What if there are monsters to help conquer the city, will there be capable people to vote for her to do things for her in the future?
Sesshomaru could see that Sara cared about this banquet very much, and did not start a killing spree.
It seems that the emperor still wants to take this ignorance to the extreme, and the atmosphere of everyone is aroused in the middle of the banquet.
"Everyone is gathered together today, don't be so formal, if you want to talk to others, you can leave your seat hahaha."
After a long time of observation, everyone came to the conclusion that the monster would not act easily. It is estimated that he will accompany Suo Luo to the banquet, and he will not care about anything else.
The more the emperor thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea, and he laughed so hard that his body only shook.
The emperor guessed well, or the other castle lords who revealed the news to him guessed well. Sesshomaru will not make an easy move, and the only one who can solve the current predicament is Sara himself.
The island royal family is accustomed to inbred marriage, and the royal family is shorter from generation to generation, and the emperor is not very capable, but he has a lot of bad intentions.
Soon after the emperor's speech, the lords of the castle at the banquet gathered together in twos and threes, and the female companions who had been brought with them found an opportunity to gather in several places and make a fuss.
Sora picked up the wine glass on the table and got up to try to participate in the conversation of some of the recent city lords: "I am here for the first time, may I ask who this is?" ”
"This is the lord of Towu City."
"Hehe, yes, yes."
After the two city lords in front of him finished fighting, they continued to talk about the previous topic as if they had nothing to do, and if Suo Luo talked to each other, they should talk to each other a few times, and then ignored it.
Sora couldn't talk, even if he stood next to someone, it was like standing in the corner.
Almost everyone at the banquet was paying attention to Suo's every move, knowing that she couldn't laugh in front of the two city lords.
Who can say that they are impolite and have no manners? Can't they just laugh at something else?
Sensing that the monsters around him were tense and had the intention of teaching a lesson, Suo Luo hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop and shook his head at the other party's eyes.
If Sesshomaru does it, you can imagine how she will be spread outside in the future.
She was grateful that Sesshomaru was willing to help, but this was the only thing she could do.
Seeing that the old man was still rejected yesterday, Suo Luo knew that there must be many literati like him outside, and they didn't like her very much, and they didn't even have the idea of going to Suo Luo Country to find a clear place.
Today's news of weakness, or news of dominance, they did not come before, and they will not come later.
The hand in Sesshomaru's sleeve hung down, and his tone was cold and sure: "You have a way." ”
"It's just a small trick." If you want to talk about the ancestors who participated in the banquet, she said that she is the second most experienced, and no one dares to say that she is the first.
Sara laughed at herself as if she were a memory.
In her previous life, as a princess of the dead country, who dared to provoke her when she participated in the banquet when she was noble, even if others couldn't get used to it, she always had to give three points of courtesy because of her royal status.
After the country was broken, she traveled to various countries and rubbed the invitations of other noble sons and daughters to participate in major banquets.
A princess who died in the country, like a lost dog, how can she get into the eyes of noble sons and daughters, and there are more people who want to teach her to embarrass her.
Looking at the woman in front of him who looked like she could fly away at once, Sesshomaru's right hand hidden in his sleeve moved unconsciously.
This time it is undetectable, and perhaps even he himself has not paid attention to it. An emotion called pity crept through his heart.
Sara was never a man who needed pity, and she turned and headed for the lord of the city, whom she had long been looking forward to.
The people at the banquet watched her leave, and their eyes followed her.
It was a man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and he couldn't help but swallow hard when he saw Suo Luo walking towards him.
The lords of the various families at the banquet didn't know much about Suara, and Kotaro Fukawa was different. He only received a letter from his chief officer the day before yesterday, and he knew how perverted Suo's strength was.
Strength is part of it, she helped his country solve a big problem on the way to the suzerain's country, if he didn't help, it was obviously unreasonable.
The banquet deliberately isolated Sara, and Kotaro Fukawa knew. He was very entangled in his heart, and he didn't know whether he should risk offending the other city lords to help her.
What I want to come to the most, I still want to come.
Sara stood still in front of Fukawa Kotaro, raised his wine glass and greeted generously: "Fukawa Kotaro City Lord, we have finally met." ”
"Yes," Kotaro Fukawa said with a big hand and scratching his head in embarrassment, "that guy Yuta Nishida wrote to me, thank you so much for helping us a lot." ”
"Ambiguous, it's just a gesture."
Suo Luo smiled, paused for a moment, and changed the topic to others: "The chief official of Xitian told me that his city lord is handsome and upright, brave and good at fighting, I didn't believe it at the time, but when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation. ”
It's not a coercion to report it, Fukawa Kotaro is much more relaxed, I heard that Nishida Yuta still praised him, and he was surprised and couldn't hide his joy.
Since ancient times, civil and military forces have not been separated, and Yuta Nishida usually does not praise him.
"Really?" Kotaro Fukawa didn't believe it.
"The chief official of Xitian is for the country and the people, and he is afraid that you will be proud if he doesn't often say hello, but he has praised you a lot in front of me, an outsider."
The lord of the city who can have a place in this Warring States, who doesn't think very highly of himself, Fukawa Kotaro has always been very confident, and he half believed Saara's words at once.
"Quick, tell me what else he praised me."
Kotaro Fukawa was obviously very excited, and his whole body was revealing pleasure.
Nishida Yuta still wanted to fool her at that time, where did he praise the person in front of her in front of her.
Suo Luo covered his lips and laughed like a silver bell, and said slyly: "I won't reveal the old background of the chief official of Xitian, you should go back and ask him, I heard him say that you have participated in many wars, can you tell me about it today?" ”
"You also know that I relied on youkai in the previous battle, and I don't know what to do in the future, if I can learn a few skills from you to fight, I don't have to worry about it in the future."
Kotaro Fukikawa was very interested in talking about the topics he was interested in, but he was still reserved: "That's all I participated in. ”
Originally, the conversation was still very flat, but Suo Luo praised and chatted, and Fukawa Kotaro called Suo Luo sister behind him: "Sister, you have to learn to fight with my brother and me, I'll tell you, back then, ......"
Seeing that the two of them were chatting more and more, the people who had been paying attention to Suo Luo couldn't help but wonder in their hearts. Before, they had clearly agreed to isolate her at the banquet together.
Why, Kotaro Fukawa likes to be special so much.
