Badr was very fond of Anna.

But this did not prevent him from coveting those celebrities and ladies.

This is not a contradiction.

So he let go of Lin Xi very knowingly, and patted Lin Xi on the shoulder, trying to squeeze out a gentle smile.

The two mung bean-sized eyes, narrowed, were almost difficult to find in the blurry, rough, savagely developed facial features.

If you don't look carefully, it's easy to confuse them with nostrils. As an eye... They may only play some of the most basic roles in Badr's face.

If you want to use them as decorations... It's not enough.

"The dance party in the evening is going to be exciting, and we need some better dresses. The clergyman's costume was too solemn and featureless. Lin Xi said.

Badr took care of it: "Don't worry, I'll take care of the dress." ”

As the son of a well-known wealthy merchant, his father, in order to avoid the division of the family property and a large amount of inheritance tax, which led to the severance of the size of the chamber of commerce, sent all the heirs except the eldest son to the church.

And as compensation, every year Badr receives a large amount of 'money', perhaps equivalent to a fixed dividend.

The Condor Empire suppressed commerce, not only imposed heavier taxes on merchants, but also stipulated that each son of a merchant had the right to divide the property equally, and each son had to pay an inheritance tax equivalent to one-third of the inherited property.

Therefore, in order to avoid the industry being cut, the strength of the chamber of commerce will be greatly reduced when the old and the new are replaced. Most businessmen will find a way to send their extra sons to the church for training.

And once you become a clergyman of the church, you automatically give up your secular identity and become a wholehearted person... Servant of God.

Lost inheritance rights.

"Well, remember to rent a decent carriage. ”

Lin Xi was not polite at all.

As night fell, Viscount City, like most cities in the Western world, was built around a hill.

The castles of the lords and nobles, as well as the churches of the seven gods, are all on the top of the hill or halfway up the mountain.

Most of the people lived at the foot of the mountain or at the bottom of the mountainside.

At night the streets begin to darken.

The ordinary people who are willing to light the oil lamps under the eaves and in the rooms are only a minority after all.

And if you look at it from above.

Halfway up the mountain, the lights flickered like stars.

Painted cream white and inlaid with some golden patterns, the carriage pulled by three black horses slowly ran across the wide stone bridge.

At the gate of the castle, a knight with a spear and a torch took the invitation from the carriage, then turned the stone plate and opened the gate.

In the square, there are many horse-drawn carriages.

Although it looks very luxurious.

But when the wind from the top of the hill blows through the courtyard, you can always smell a strong stench.

It doesn't matter how beautiful or gorgeous your palace or courtyard is... When they want to excrete, they must be unceremonious.

A group of servants, busy with their hands in a hurry.

Lin Xi was dressed in a black dress, with a gentleman's hat on his head, and a white cane in his hand, and walked down the ladder on the side of the carriage.

Some of the ladies and ladies who were also still in the square lit up their eyes when they saw him.

The bold ladies have begun to inquire about Lin Xi's origin in a whisper.

But those young ladies are much more subtle, when they meet Lin Xi's eyes, they smile sweetly, pull up the corners of their skirts slightly, and salute very reservedly.

"Damn, why didn't they make the door bigger?"

"If I knew who the craftsman who made this carriage was, I would have kicked him in the ass. Badr was dressed like a peacock, and with great difficulty forced himself out of the narrow doorway of the carriage.

Despite the fierceness of what he said.

But he still tried to lift his spirit, protecting the fragile doorframe that didn't seem to be able to be destroyed by him.

A richly decorated carriage can be rented for as much as one gold eagle and seven silver eagles a day.

If it is damaged, Badr will have to pay at least ten Golden Eagle Coins.

Looking at the upper body of a red-lined dress with many intricate patterns and lace trimming, and the lower body was a Suville men's wide-leg skirt, and Badr wearing thick-soled high heels and leggings stockings on his feet, Lin Xi tried to maintain his expression so as not to collapse.

He had already warned and warned Badr.

If a person is not good-looking enough, it is best to dress up with spirit, connotation and temperament.

It's a pity that Badr can't listen to it at all, and the flamboyance and protrusion of personal 'color' are a kind of 'deformed' fashion in the upper class of the Condor Empire now.

At night, the old castle, intertwined with roses and vines, exudes an evocative beauty.

Lin Xi looked up and looked at the sky.

The sky seemed to be darker than normal.

The moon was round and bright.

Stepping into the gorgeous banquet hall, the incense candles lit high, and the pearls hanging on the ceiling will decorate the entire hall extraordinarily brightly.

In the middle of the dance floor, there were already people dancing.

Although the Western world, under the constraints of the Seven Gods, advocates monogamy.

But outside of husband and wife... But there are many lovers.

My sister's husband is my sister's lover. My sister's husband, but I have some ulterior relationship with my sister's husband... In the upper circles of the Western world, this is really an ordinary and ordinary relationship structure.

Even Lin Xi, who came with Badr, some noble ladies with ulterior motives hid in the corners, secretly discussing the true relationship between these two people.

The Viscountess, who had a 'one-sided relationship' with Lin Xi before, was wearing a platinum-gold gorgeous dress at this time, her hair was permed into a wavy shape, her head was wearing a cumbersome and gorgeous decoration, and the sapphire hanging from her neck hung on her chest, I have to say... The 'gem' was really, big, white and shiny.

It's a bit pompous, but it's just right.

The bells and whistles of Badr are two completely different concepts.

Sure enough... It doesn't matter what you dress up, what matters is your appearance.

If you don't look good, no matter how you dress up, it's all in vain.

The Viscountess was at the heart of the whole ball at the moment, and a group of noblewomen, ladies and ladies circled around her.

She is like the moon held by the stars.

High, shining, proud and peerless.

Seeing Lin Xi's arrival from the corner of her eye, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and the little cinnabar mole at the corner of her mouth brought obvious charm.

Some of the gentlemen who sat on the sofas and chairs, as if discussing something, clamped their legs one after another.

The expression was slightly embarrassed, and the wings of his nose were all slightly stretched.

In the midst of the tumult, a man who looked like a tiger, dressed in a splendid military uniform, with a bow and arrow and the head of a black lion in his hand, strode out from the back of the hall.

He handed over the things in his hand to the servant in the deliberate exclamation of some people, and told the servant to put it away.

Then he grabbed the Viscountess's slender waist.

Proudly towards everyone... In particular, the men present looked around.

Unquestionable declaration of sovereignty.

The viscountess rolled her eyes coquettishly, and at the same time used her fingertips to gently glide the back of the man's hand.

In the raised eyes, affectionate, as if full of eyes and hearts, he was the only one.

"Ladies and gentlemen, today is my wife's first ball. ”

"It was also the first most formal ball I ever held as the lord of the green pine collar. ”

"Let's raise a glass together... Celebrate the return of a good day!" said the Viscount.

Lin Xi squinted his eyes, and suddenly found that under the illumination of the light, in the hall... In the shadow of most people, there is something strange hidden.

The shadow of the viscount, tall and burly.

But the back of his shadow has horns clearly grown.

Some people have shadows that look like mice.

Some people look like foxes, others look like wild boars or whatever.

But they didn't even notice it.

Lin Xi turned his head to look at Badr who had already flattered a noble lady, and in his shadow, there seemed to be a black bear roaring ugly.

Lin Xi looked at his feet.

His shadow was the same at first, but slowly, it looked like a twisted viper.

"There's something weird about this party... Targeted by some inexplicable guy. Lin Xi frowned slightly.

He didn't like the feeling of an accident.

Although Lin Xi's body is comparable to that of a true immortal, in this world, it also belongs to the top power.

But at the moment, he is just a small doppelganger in John Nader's body, and he doesn't carry much power.

"It's just a faint sign, and there is no real launch, so when it comes to resistance and confrontation, there is no way to start at all. ”

"There should be another inducement for the real trouble. Lin Xi thought to himself.

"Noble Viscountess, I want you to do a dance, is it okay?" In the crowd, a gentleman with white hair, but only middle-aged, elegant appearance and decency, walked out and invited the Viscountess to dance in front of him.

The Viscount let go of the Viscountess's hand.

And the Viscountess had a sweet smile on her face: "Of course, Sir William! ”

The two men clasped their hands together and quickly danced in the middle of the hall.

Their dancing is very tacit.

The Viscountess fully expresses the feminine femininity and seductiveness, as well as the slenderness and softness.

Sir William's dances are vigorous and powerful, yet neat and distinct.

They swirl in the middle of the dance floor.

In the blur, their shadows also twisted into a ball, like an old tree and a vine, entangled, cold and evil.

A dance is over.

More people plucked up the courage to invite the Viscountess to dance.

But the viscountess politely refused.

Lin Xi's side, there are also some noble ladies and ladies, with subtle hints or obvious requests.

Some open ladies even said that they could invite Lin Xi to the back garden for a walk, she knew what rooms were in the viscount's palace, and no one would visit.

As for their husbands... Maybe I've already taken some young lady or lady in my arms and gone to find a room.

I don't have the time to care about them at all.
