Chapter 432 The King's Dinner
Chapter 432 The King's Dinner
After walking for a while into the palace, Vimir finally relaxed from the tense atmosphere.
Lovely is really amazing...
Has she always dealt with these people in the past? Just now, I was so far away that I was so nervous when I saw them talking to each other that my stomach ached... I really couldn't imagine what would happen if I went up to talk to them.
You will be so nervous that you will turn around and run away immediately.
"Come to think of it, who are we going to meet now?" she asked in confusion.
"Didn't I tell you?" Lu Yi walked, waving her limbs vigorously, "I'm going to meet Lovely's parents~"
"Eh…?"
Vimir was stunned for a moment.
Lovely's parents? That doesn't mean...
"Eh--!!!"
Aren’t Lovely’s parents the King and Queen of Lion Garden! ?
So now we are...?
Luo Wei walked in front and curled his lips. It was indeed a wise decision to leave this guy behind. Otherwise, the whole team would have lost face because of this cowardly lizard.
When the princess enters the palace, she naturally has to meet the king and queen.
But this is the only one among them whose parents are still alive...it's understandable that she didn't react?
Vimir's cowardice level has increased.
Dealing with those nobles was enough to scare her to death, and now they were going to meet the ruler of the Lion Garden, the ruler who ruled the entire Lion Garden? !
I...I meet the king?!
Vimir immediately weakened her steps and hid behind Saya. The angel frowned and distanced herself from her with a look of disgust.
Don't pass on your stupidity to me!
Vimeer: TT
Walking through the extremely luxurious vestibule of the palace, the further you go in, the more you feel like "after a dark tunnel, there is a new world". The group walks on the suspended walkways outside, and then enters the corridors to enter and exit the elegant open-air gardens, and then there are squares and palaces, sections of city walls and towers. The scenery when switching from inside to outside of the building is always amazing.
Ayining looked at the waterfall hanging from the mountain not far away. She hardly noticed any signs of the mountains when she was in the city, but such a natural scenery appeared before her eyes without any warning.
The builders of this city are truly amazing.
Going up the large elevator on the deep side of the palace and walking out of the door, a new scene appeared before our eyes.
It seemed that only here did they enter the official area of the palace. Led by the captain of the guards, they crossed the open plain in front of the palace and the stairs that were wide enough to accommodate a hundred people. The magnificent royal palace stood there majestically.
And right above the stairs, at the entrance to the palace, a figure was looking at them in the dusk.
The woman was so beautiful that she was otherworldly, yet she seemed fragile and could hardly stand in the breeze. She looked both gorgeous and pitiful.
"Mother!"
When Lovelli saw the other person, she was stunned for a moment.
She took a step forward and immediately rushed towards the other person, anxiously supporting his body.
"Mother, why are you outside? Didn't you keep telling me in your letter not to go outside?"
Seeing this, several people followed. Loveli’s mother... isn’t that... ?
Luo Wei climbed the stairs a little later than them, and looked at the figure that fell down with the wind, feeling a little nostalgic.
That was Lovely's biological mother and the second wife of the current King of Lion Garden, Adcaesar Medeawai Tototlia - Princess Emily Kash.
"My own daughter is back, but I can only wait in a place like this..." Princess Emily Kash gently stroked Lovely's head, her eyes gradually filled with a soft light of heartache, and she said slowly, "I must have wronged you along the way."
"No...!" Lovelli blocked her mouth with her body and quickly signaled to the maids waiting on the side, "Help my mother in quickly."
Several people followed the attendants into the palace.
From the back, the mother and daughter are like birds snuggling with each other. Both of them have slender figures. The princess is not short but looks very delicate, with an enviable sense of warmth.
As they entered a side hall for rest, Lu Yi appeared beside them without them noticing when. Together with Luo Fuli, she helped the princess sit on the soft sofa.
"She smells so good, Luyi likes it so much," Luyi turned around and looked at Luo Wei and others, and said with a confused look on her face, "Luyi can recognize this person as her mother?"
Everyone: "..."
The eyes of several people here were a little confused.
Although watching the interaction between Lovely and her mother, although... I also had a similar feeling.
"You are Lovely's..." Princess Emily Kash looked at them tenderly, "Thank you for always being with her. If possible, please don't feel constrained here."
"Then can Luyi call you mom?"
"Ahem..." Luo Wei coughed twice to signal Ayining to quickly catch this guy back. "Thank you very much for your hospitality. We are flattered."
I understand how she feels when she sees that Lovely has a mother, but if everyone in the palace recognizes the princess as their mother, the palace will be in chaos. The most obvious expression in it is even that of a demon.
Princess Emily Kash smiled softly twice, not minding at all. After scanning everyone, her eyes stopped on Luo Wei with a little surprise.
She turned her head and looked at Lovelli in a low voice: "Could this be...?"
"...?"
Lovely was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.
"He's not...no!"
Then he quickly covered it up in a low voice: "I'll explain this matter tonight...!"
Watching the change in expression on her daughter's face, the princess smiled. It seemed that this was the person whose name was left on the engagement slate.
Soon, at the waiter's request, the venue for the dinner was prepared, and everyone followed the princess to the main hall, chatting and laughing as they crossed the corridor bridge, full of anticipation for tonight's dinner.
However, the figure that was already waiting inside made several people, including the princess, slightly stunned.
"I didn't expect to see you all again so soon. I am really happy."
In the brightly lit banquet hall, next to the extra-long dining table covered with a red carpet, a burly and majestic man in a Lion Prime Minister military uniform stood in front of a high-backed chair with a calm smile.
—Randall Osbord.
The other party looked at them with a smile like an unshakable mountain.
"Your Highness the Fifth Princess, welcome back to the capital."
Several people stopped not far from the entrance. Randall's appearance suddenly changed the atmosphere of the entire banquet hall, as if an invisible flame was burning.
Lovely's face turned ugly.
This was definitely not what the queen mother had arranged. I had been avoiding him all the way, but I didn't expect to run into the prime minister in a place like this in the end.
"Sir Osborne, what are you doing..." Princess Emily Kash said a little confused.
"Please forgive my rudeness," Randall closed his eyes and smiled calmly, "I also realize that my presence here will disturb your interest, but this is also the arrangement of His Majesty."
what……
Father?
As soon as he finished speaking, the inner door leading to the banquet hall opened, and two figures walked out one after the other.
"Hahaha! Look who's back, my beloved little daughter?"
The leading man had a resonant voice. Half of his hair was gray, and the other half was golden. He had an upright posture and steady steps. The young man following behind him was tall and slender, with long, rare gray-gold hair, giving people a gentle and elegant impression.
King of the Lion Court, Ad Caesar.
And the eldest son of the royal family of the Kingdom of Lion Garden, Prince Evan.
"It's been a while since we last met, little sister." Evan said elegantly.
Lovely stared at the two of them in a daze.
The father in her memory still looked the same as in her memory, but to her, this memory seemed a little strange.
If it was the father she had when she was young, he would never...
The King of Lion Court was dressed in a royal casual attire of blue, white and gold. When he appeared, Randall had already performed the salutation of a subject by touching his chest, but his slightly bulging belly and his eyes that seemed to be closed all the time gave people an indescribable feeling.
After entrusting all matters of the Lion Garden to Randall, King Ad Caesar has not been involved in government affairs for more than ten years.
After signaling to everyone that there was no need to salute, Luo Wei, who was standing at the back, noticed a gaze passing through Weimir and others and heading straight towards him. When his gaze met the other person's, Luo Wei's eyes also became deep.
Evan: “…”
Luo Wei: “…” The group sat down at the large banquet table that could accommodate more than fifty people. Vimir, who was already very nervous when she saw the king, froze in her chair like an ice cube when she thought about having to eat at the same table with the Prime Minister of the Lion Garden.
Not long after, the second prince Lucas and Scarlett walked into the banquet hall and sat opposite the five princesses.
Ayi Ning: "..."
Irus: “… (Heh)”
Vimir: “…………”
The royal family includes the king and the queen, and they have three legitimate heirs. It can be said to be a real dinner for royal family members.
But there was no family atmosphere at all, only an obviously inharmonious sense of solemnity, especially Lucas, who looked at Loveley with clear hostility.
Luo Wei had no doubt that this was the result the prime minister wanted. The other party didn't need to do anything. No matter how glorious the princess was in the city during the day, her father no longer cared about her as much as before, her mother was in poor health, family relationships were no longer the same as before, and she even had to eat at the same table with the culprit who caused all this.
The margin of comfort she had built up during the day was completely destroyed simply by sharing the table.
"Little sister, you seem absent-minded," said Prince Evan. "Let mother sit next to you."
“…No need.” Lovely replied after a pause.
She wasn't that fragile, nor did she want Lucas to look down on her, and she didn't want to drag her mother into this.
She came back to seize power.
The current situation further strengthened her thinking.
"Haha... In that case, I have some good news to share," Randall said at this time, "The approval for the Royal Arena has been approved. For the next three months, Her Highness the Fifth Princess can use the venue as she pleases, and the relevant personnel will cooperate to the greatest extent possible."
Lovell glanced at Rowe.
The guy didn't seem surprised that she didn't waver, and he nodded his opinion calmly.
Of course! You guys have done so much for me, how can I just back off so easily...!
"why?"
Lucas made a questioning sound and looked at Randall meaningfully.
"The Colosseum is owned by the kingdom, and the taxes collected go into the treasury," he said. "Not to mention that there have been no previous cases of unauthorized use of the arena. Your Excellency the Prime Minister is not unaware that we are now at war with Valais Mountain, right?"
"That's fine," Randall smiled solemnly. "The Blue Elite Tournament is a continental-level competition. Since the Five Princesses have already sent invitations to all countries, holding it during wartime can better demonstrate our spare time in the war. It is our duty as subjects to share their worries."
"whispering sound…"
Lucas did not hide his displeasure.
Lucas was upset because the prime minister had not allowed him to participate in the expedition to the Valais Mountains not long ago.
He glanced at his brother, who was slowly cutting a piece of butter in his hand and making no comment on what they were discussing.
"Ah, that one! That one looks delicious!"
"Oh! This is absolutely delicious!!"
The disturbing voice made Lucas look away. The people brought back by Lovely made him even more impatient. It was ok for them to ignore etiquette, but what on earth did they want to do by climbing onto the royal dining table?
Especially since my father actually tolerated such behavior.
"Hahaha! Eat whatever you want," King Ad Caesar laughed loudly, "Tell the servants to bring two more servings of that lobster!"
"Great!" Luyi and Ananing said in unison.
"That's really interesting," Ad Caesar responded to them and then looked at Lovely, "My daughter, the friends you brought back are really interesting. They reminded me of your childhood."
Lovely: "..."
As the meal progressed, Randall sipped the red wine in the goblet calmly. Then he paused for a moment before the entrance, smiled and raised his hand in the direction of Rowe, but was ignored by the latter.
Scarlett saw this behavior and cast a sad look at Luo Wei.
This woman...
The person who raised the glass in his place was Irus.
"You seem to know a lot about wine," the witch said lightly, "I think we should have a lot to talk about."
"I think so too." Scarlett noticed that the person facing her was her. She briefly turned her gaze away from Luo Wei and said with misty eyes, "A beauty like you is unforgettable at first sight. It's hard to imagine that you came from a noble family."
"Haha... I'm afraid you will be disappointed."
They both drank it in one gulp, smiling at each other in an unfathomable way.
There are so many things hidden on this table.
Ayining didn't know much about the traditional etiquette of the Western royal family, so she didn't take the initiative to agree. But her appearance at this table itself might represent an attitude. However, the king, who had the most say, remained indifferent and was amused by Luyi and her sister.
Luo Wei seemed to be trying to hide his edge, and many people at the table, including the princess, looked at him vaguely.
This gave her a feeling that perhaps there were some clues related to the third world hidden on this table, but they were hidden too deep... and she couldn't see them clearly at all.
Looking at both sides, Chloe also seemed to be eating very enthusiastically, but not as exaggerated as the other two. Saya was not uncomfortable with such an occasion, but she did not express any opinion. And Vimier had not raised her head until now. Was she afraid of being recognized? No... She was just simply nervous...
Anyway, she tried her best for her sister.
But to no avail.
"Haha! Lovely's father is such a good man!" Luyi said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, this is delicious too. Ah, please leave some for me!" Ana Ning was harvesting the delicacies on the table.
In such a noisy atmosphere, Lucas gradually lost his patience and stood up first.
"Lucas?" Princess Emily Kash was slightly startled, and said, "I asked Heilis to prepare your favorite apple puff pastry, how about..."
"No need."
Lucas had no intention of stopping. Scarlett smiled and bowed to the few people, then followed the second prince and left.
The king remained indifferent to all this, as if Lucas's behavior did not exist.
Luo Wei: "..."
As if she had found the incongruity that always existed at the dining table, Ayining looked towards Luo Wei.
Luo Wei did not give her a look to answer his doubts. His sister must have connected the king's current condition with Maria's fate being manipulated. Unfortunately, he did not find the answer in the last round. Neither the various capable people in the royal capital nor Mena herself could confirm it, but they could find any signs of the king being manipulated.
If there are no more clues.
I'm afraid the only way to find out the truth is by forcing Randall into a desperate situation.
"Lobster, lobster, we want lobster!"
"Luyi still wants to eat lobster!!"
"Hahaha!! Yes, tell the servant to bring it up!"
The king didn't seem to mind their mischief at all. He didn't feel offended at all. Instead, he seemed to be very amused by them.
Seeing this, Lovely felt helpless and wanted to laugh. If she really had a sister like this, she would have a lot of troubles.
At the end of the dinner, everyone at the table stood up and left one after another. Only then did Luo Wei pat Vimir's thigh to wake her up from her petrification.
"Eh? What... is this place?"
She blinked and looked around, and was looked at as if she were a fool by Saya.
"Aren't you hungry at all?" An Ning touched her stomach and looked at her, "We ate a lot of lobsters!"
"Huh...? Lobster?"
Vimir looked at the table, where only the plates had been neatly put away.
"Next time," Luo Wei patted her on the back while trying not to laugh, "Next time you'd better be prepared to eat with a first-level god."
Vermeer: ()
He led a few people towards the outside of the banquet hall, but before they were about to step out, a voice called them.
"Lord Rowe Brook——"
Prince Evan stood where he was and called out Luo Wei's name accurately.
