Eagle Flag of Epirus
Vol 3 Chapter 12: feast
At the same time as the mass ceremony in Agrinon, a grand banquet was also taking place in the mansion of the Earl of Theodor.
In fact, this banquet made many participants very surprised. You must know that their Earl Theodor has never left the house, and the usual orders are more dependent on Secretary Hendriel. Men rarely attend public occasions, and such a grand banquet is rare.
But this also made everyone attach great importance to this banquet, and Agrinon who received the invitation felt very honored. But from the morning till now, Earl Theodor has not appeared. Although everyone was very puzzled, the answer was always that Lord Earl would come to the banquet later, so people could only revel first.
In the celebration of St. Valentine’s Day, everyone put aside the usual prosperity.
After praying to God, the servants lined up to bring food. First came the chief baker, who brought bread and butter, and then the wine servant and his assistants, who brought wine and beer. Most of these wines were imported from Italy. Although they were at war with the Latins, their love for fine wines could not prevent the Romans from doing business with each other.
However, Qing Hendriel, who was in charge of the banquet, put the glass in front of him and sniffed it lightly, and immediately stopped the chief baker. The wine was already aged like vinegar. Due to the lack of an effective technique for blocking the container, the wine It was drunk soon after the system. Wines older than one year can’t be drunk. Hendrier just asked and noticed that the wine was sour and moldy-very thick, greasy, off-flavored, with a resinous taste. It was obviously their Lord Earl. The wine in the inventory has not been changed for a long time. This was also normal, and Hendry could not help but shrugged his shoulders helplessly. After all, the man who had forgotten to eat and sleep rarely drank alcohol.
But sometimes it would be too rude if other great nobles were also supplied with very muddy wine. I am afraid that even if you close your eyes, grit your teeth, and tilt your mouth, it is impossible to pour the wine into your throat abruptly.
"What should I do?" The chief baker, who realized his mistake, couldn't help but panicked, but Hendry immediately calmed down.
"Don't panic, go to my mansion, I should have dozens of barrels of ale, and it should be fine to deal with it."
got the order, the entourage at the earl’s mansion immediately brought the wine in with a whip and poured it into the big glass. The wine servant added spices and sugar to some of the wine, and then delivered it with the last dish. Although these wines from Hendry's house do not taste good, they are better than those aged wines.
But the abundant food is enough to offset these. The main things to eat are meat and fish, with less vegetables and fruits, but this is the favorite of the knights who come to the feast. The roasted meat exudes a tempting aroma. In order to prepare the banquet dishes, the chef and his helpers in the kitchen must constantly turn the various meats on the spit-pork, beef, lamb, poultry, and game. They also use a large iron pot to prepare stew and soup. This iron pot is hung from hooks and iron chains. Under the pot is a fire. The iron chains can be pulled up or down to adjust the temperature. The cooked meat is lifted out of the pot by an iron hook, which is a meat fork with a wooden handle on the side. The soup is a long-handled slotted spoon. ??
To ensure that the banquet can go smoothly, the kitchen has been busy since last night, but all the hard work is worth it. The guests who came to the banquet were full of praise for the banquet.
At this time, the theatrical performance of the gnomes in the hall of the earl’s mansion also caused a burst of laughter from everyone present, and Hendriel did not hide his contemptuous look on the face of this vulgar program, and was helpless to be present. Most of the nobles are from the army and are only interested in pornographic jokes of alcohol and slang.
"Isn’t Justinian of Ilovan Castle yet here?"
Hendry has been waiting for the arrival of the young man, but the banquet has been held for so long, but the other party has not shown up yet.
"Still not, Qing Hendry."
"It's in trouble now." Hendriel couldn't help but feel that it was too big. If Justinian deliberately didn't want to come, it would be tantamount to publicly defying the Earl of Theodor, then I am afraid that Theodor will not at all. Allow him to be at ease under his own nose.
Hendry shook his head, feeling that Justinian was still too young after all, and such a move would undoubtedly have to pay a huge price.
But at this moment, a panting young man finally arrived at the banquet venue, and he happened to fall into Hendry's sight. It was Justinian who came to the banquet. After beating Romanus violently, Justinian immediately came here to prevent retaliation by the other party, but the grandeur of the earl’s mansion before him was completely beyond his imagination~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This was his first time here. Here, not so much an earl’s mansion, it is almost as luxurious as a palace, but the love of these Romans for pomp is really beyond adding.
"Your Excellency Justinian, you are finally here!" Hendry also stepped forward to greet Justinian.
"Long time no see, Qing Hendley." He still had a good impression of this man, Justinian, and greeted him immediately. It was obvious that the other party was waiting for him, and Justinian finally understood that he was inviting him to the banquet. Sure enough, it's not that simple.
While the two were talking, the original lively banquet suddenly quieted down, people stopped laughing and talking, music stopped playing, and the dwarf performing was also driven away. The expression on everyone's face also solidified, looking in the same direction, it was obvious that an important figure appeared. Following their gazes, Justinian finally saw the middle-aged man wearing a purple robe slowly coming out.
There is no doubt that this man is the master of Agrinon, Count Theodor.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are welcome to come here as guests!"
Immediately, all the nobles below who were guests stood together, shouting in unison:
"Your Excellency, my dear count, thank you for your generous hospitality and guarding here all the time. May God grant you victory and bring you joy!"
Seeing people raise their glasses in tribute to their earl, and nodded, Theodor also watched everyone who came raise their glasses. Amidst the cheers of the people, the grand banquet resumed the carnival banquet, and the look on Justinian’s face became a little subtle when he saw this scene. The support of Theodore by the nobles of Agrignon really surprised him.
