Chapter 1341: Day 6 Banquet

The five consecutive dinner parties were all the kind of glamorous, but in fact all kinds of scheming dance banquets, which really made Lin, a magician who was born in a fat house, feel impatient. Especially the kind of beauty tricks rushing to send noble women, it is even more annoying to some people.

Don't discuss the issue of these women's cleanliness. It's not that anyone who sees the sugar-coated cannonballs can eat the sugar-coated cannonballs and throw them back. Who can guarantee that there is no poison in the sugar-coated cannonballs. Besides, as long as some things are touched, it will be troublesome, so why bother yourself.

These days, the empress did not have a tryst with anyone again. As for the head of the wolf cavalry regiment who died in the summer palace that day, no follow-up news reached the ears of Lin and the others.

This made Lin suspect that the Karlsruhe Empire was very united and knew how to keep information away from outsiders. That's why they attended the noble banquet for five consecutive days, but they didn't hear any news. Or maybe the empress hasn't made a fuss about the news of the army commander's death yet?

But on the sixth night, at the banquet hosted by the Empress, Lin discovered something unusual again.

The process of the banquets I attended in the past few days is actually the same. The special thing is that the meals are in the form of self-service, rather than the long table banquets in other regions. This is another legacy that seems to have passed through the predecessors.

But the disadvantages are not without, this form of meal picking usually has no chairs to sit on. Everyone stood and ate, mainly chatting. If this is put in the eyes of some conservative old people in my hometown, if they dare to stand and eat, they will not be rewarded with chestnuts on their foreheads!

The time of chatting and eating is also the time of waiting for the guests to go to the banquet. Some big names, or those who don't match the host of the banquet, will come later. But whoever comes and who doesn't, and whoever comes, gets a reply when they are invited. Generally speaking, not much can go wrong.

When all the people are gathered, there is a fixed number of eating and drinking, and then the host of the banquet will lead the dance. The time of the three-qu court dance is an opportunity for the young men and women at the banquet to show their love for each other. And some couples who are in a good relationship, or who have to show a good relationship, will also end up dancing.

The Karlsruhe Empire is not monogamous, there are no restrictions on those who have the ability to marry, and those who have the ability to marry. Excellent people need to have more children, which is the concept of most barbarian tribes. Many ethos of the empire that absorbed these tribes were also affected.

So when dancing, apart from young people in heat, there are different political interpretations of who the man leads and who the woman follows. It can be said that there are rules in every step, and each pile has deep meaning.

After the three court dances, it was time to rest. Everyone continued to eat, drink, and chat about everyday things. The three aunts and the six aunts are fully fired, and anyone who has unmarried children starts to lead the red line. If a good deed can be achieved, the newlyweds will remember the kindness of the introducer. Whatever happens in the future, of course I will help you if you can.

If there is the three court dances, you will see each other, or people who have a crush on each other, not limited to men and women, will find an empty room to rest temporarily at this time. As for what to do with the door closed during the break time, everyone knows, so I will skip it here. If you don't have enough rooms...it's night anyway, just find a dark hallway and you're done. Some people with relatively low status don't care about these.

During the break, the music will not stop, and those who want to dance can continue to dance. During this period, most of the dances were casual dances, and some people joined and some people quit at any time, and the dancing forms were not consistent.

However, there will be no dance scenes at the noble banquet. Everyone has grievances to resolve, so they go out to a duel with real swords and guns, who is fighting and dancing. This is a world where killing people is as common as eating and drinking.

Rest periods are not continuous either. When it's almost over, the host of the banquet will come out to lead the dance again, and after two court dances, the banquet will enter the final stage. The same is that everyone chats, eats and drinks, and those who live far away and have high status also leave one after another.

If a banquet is held in another place, those who live far away will stay overnight and leave early the next morning. But everyone has mansions in the Imperial City of Neuquen, so there is no place to stay overnight. At this point, the one-day banquet is over, which is the usual process for the nobles of the Karlsruhe Empire.

However, these banquets, even if they are enemies, are nothing more than small nobles. For the sake of face, as long as they receive invitations, the big nobles will at least send a representative to attend and bring gifts. If you fail to achieve this level, you will be judged as ignorant by outsiders. But regardless of the new and old hatreds of these nobles, the empress was never invited to these banquets.

Or was it invited, but no one came? Lin wondered.

But in the Green Shade Hall, the banquet invited by the empress had a large venue and the largest number of nobles participated. However, the atmosphere was quite different from the banquets held by other great nobles a few days ago. The most obvious difference is that there are two more thrones at the banquet. These two chairs were of course prepared for the Empress and her husband-in-law, His Royal Highness the Prince.

For other noble banquets, a butler is always arranged at the entrance of the mansion to receive them. If someone of high status came, the master had to go out to meet him himself.

It was not so convenient in the palace, the guards lined up directly into the wall, from the main entrance of the palace to the green hall. The aristocrats who can enter the gate have passed the gate of the guards, and no one has a higher status than the emperor anyway, so everyone can come by themselves.

During the stage of chatting, eating, drinking, and waiting for guests, the empress did not appear. Only Prince Thomas walked around the venue, chatting with a few nobles who had made good friends. Occasionally, of course, some noble women stepped forward to hook up.

Finally, when the dance was about to start, the empress came to the green hall under the call of the attendant.

Santa Alegria wore a violet fluffy long dress with gorgeous lace decorations, and silk sleeves with a purple base and embroidered patterns of flowers. Her hair was coiled up high, and a delicate golden flower was pinned. Around the neck are five rows of pearl necklaces side by side. A little makeup was applied on the face, the silk fan was gently shaken, and the red lips were covered, nodding to the nobles passing by one by one.

Under the costumes, this posture is a bit more coquettish, not like the heroic posture a few days ago.

The empress purposely stopped in front of the envoy of the Goddess of Gold Coins for a short time, greeted her a few times in a lukewarm manner, then stepped onto her throne and sat down securely. At this time, Prince Thomas also came to the right, and sat on the diamond-encrusted throne with the back of the chair lower than the one next to it.

The banquets held by the royal family have more rules than those of the nobles. The court etiquette officer sang the names of each stage one by one with a sharp voice, and everyone moved. Including the next stage of dancing together, even the accompaniment of the band was performed only under the roll call of the ceremonial officer.

As for the palace dance, thanks to the large venue in the shaded hall, all the nobles would lead their eldest wives to dance together as long as they came in person. If it is the occasion of other noble banquets, it can also be said to bring out a favorite wife or lover. But in front of the emperor, some things that are not in accordance with etiquette should be done less, so as not to cause trouble.

At the beginning of the dance together, of course, the empress and her husband-in-law lead the dance. After a while, other people came into the arena to dance, and His Majesty and her husband had already sat back in their seats, smiling slightly, watching everyone dancing together under the melodious music.

As the leader of the Goddess of Gold Coin Goddess, Lin couldn't use the excuse that he couldn't dance. It was the same in the past few days, no matter what, he would be arranged to dance alone.

Fortunately, as far as he is now, he can instantly detect the dancing posture of the people around him, and then reproduce it on himself. In addition, the speed of dancing is really not fast, and it cannot be compared with Azad's battle. With these abilities, pretending to be a good dancer is not a big problem. It's just that if you do it like this, it's not dancing, it's not fun at all.

The same is true for the banquet held by the empress, and she was also assigned a dance partner. It's just that this dance partner doesn't look like she was rushing to see off her daughter a few days ago. As soon as the music ended, I wanted to drag someone upstairs.

Today's dance partner is a little round face, brown-haired little girl with pink thick lips and a pair of big brown eyes. She doesn't look too old for her age, but she has a sweet smile.

The large round neck reveals a piece of white flowers. There is no extra jewelry, but it is better than hanging gold and silver jewelry. A goose yellow one-piece dress with puffed shoulders and tight three-quarter sleeves decorated with lace strips. The skirt is conical, and the basket under the petticoat supports the skirt to the left and right and the rear, and several rows of bows are embroidered on it.

Although someone danced quite mechanically, the little girl in front of him seemed to be enjoying it, bouncing and jumping just right.

After the trilogy dance, the little girl was not like those aristocratic girls in the past few days, impatiently wanting to lead people upstairs. Instead, he raised his skirt slightly, bowed his knees and saluted, and then bounced away again.

This behavior made Lin feel a little confused. Logically speaking, this person should be arranged by the empress. But nothing was said or done, just dancing?

Looking at the woman sitting on the throne, she maintained a dignified smile from beginning to end. Surrounded by a group of attendants, some were holding wine glasses and jugs, and some were carrying various dishes. They waited for Her Majesty the Empress to give her a look, and they stepped forward to serve.

However, most of the time, the empress just sat quietly on the throne, watching a group of nobles playing monkey games, and did not end up dancing with everyone. Just like a beautiful porcelain doll decoration, like a goose taking foie gras, it is constantly being fed by the people around it.

There were other people who came forward to greet the empress ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but it was just female scrolls who got a few simple words. Especially those little aristocrats who rolled their eyes everywhere, they were even shy in front of the empress at this time.

It can be said that the nobles who are willing to be loyal to the Empress, apart from the close officials of the royal family, are the crooked melons and jujubes picked by the five major factions. To put it bluntly, these people are of no use in the political struggles of the Karlsruhe Empire, that is, waving the flag and shouting.

A magician carrying a signboard of the Goddess of Gold Coins wanted to go up to greet the Empress. But his identity is a favorite in the eyes of the nobles, surrounded by circles of nobles who are envious of the wealth accumulated by the goddess, always thinking of ways to dig out money from the goddess' kingdom of God.

What is said is nothing more than that the gods have no place to use money, and those money will not automatically generate small money when placed in the kingdom of God, so it is better to take it out and let them use it. The conscientious ones also know that when the time comes, they will be returned to Her Majesty the goddess with a profit; if they are unconscionable, they will only talk about taking out the money and not mentioning the part of repaying the money.

It's just that these people don't think about it, is the money that enters the Goddess Kingdom belong to the Goddess? Can you control it at will? It was just stored by others!

A certain person reluctantly continued to practice Tai Chi, which was lost in obsession.
