Chapter 834 dinner (a)

"This is the current issue of the "Aristocrat" monthly magazine!" The Duke of Stoke threw the magazine in his hand on the table. This is a large dining table. Since those noble youths who came to Su Zixuan, the Duke of Stoke has eaten. It was changed to a large restaurant. The exquisite dining table has a considerable length, gathering all the people on a long table, not to mention the rare delicacies on the table, just a row of decorations stretching over the table , is enough to attract attention.

Wuxi has never seen the luxury of the nobles of the Eagle Empire. Even Li Sansi was taken aback when he first arrived. Facing the rich and deep house of the Duke of Stoke, he felt quite powerless, not to mention that he didn't see it at all. Abbot Wuxi, who has lived in some extravagant scene, has eyes as if he has stayed in a poor mountain valley for decades and it is the first time he has come to a big city.

The advanced equipment and facilities of Dalin Temple are endless, but Wuxi has never seen such a luxurious family arrangement in his life. Now that he sees it, he sighs inwardly. No wonder many people want to pursue glory and wealth. Indeed, it can satisfy the expanding desire of human beings and attract the attention of countless people.

Mrs. Selina saw the sullen look of Duke Stoke, put her hand on his hand lightly, and said softly, "What's wrong?"

"Look, look at what's written on it. Three pages of it are all about our Stoke family and the current situation. The reports above are all exaggerated. No matter from which aspect, they are constantly belittling Our Stoke family!" The Duke of Stoke was a little excited, but Su Zixuan and Mrs. Selina felt a little strange, not because of his anger, but because he read the magazine "Nobleman" today, Su Zixuan and Sai When Mrs. Linna usually flips through the "Nobleman" magazine, the Duke of Stoke will give him a dismissive chuckle. In his words, that magazine is completely based on fabricating and exaggerating the facts, and then digging out other people's trivial matters To attract attention, because most of the aristocrats belong to the boring type, so even if they are said by the "Noble" magazine, and something is revealed, they still won't stand up and clarify, which also led to the popularity of the "Noble" magazine in disguise. To a certain extent, it is human nature to spy on other people's secrets, but the nobles hide themselves a little deeper.

And the older generation of qualified aristocrats like the Duke of Stoke belong to the type who hides himself deeper. Just because of his usual disdainful attitude towards the "Nobility" magazine, it has turned out that The exhilarating situation of sneaking around is enough to make Su Zixuan and Mrs. Selina want to laugh, but they dare not laugh out loud.

"It actually said that our Duke of Stoke is now completely bankrupt, and the goddess' heart has been transferred to others for mortgage loans, and we can't even afford a copy of "Aristocrat" magazine!" The Duke of Stoke nodded heavily. I clicked on the cover of the noble magazine on the table, and there was a muffled sound when it hit the table, "If you can't afford it, then what is it in my hand now! Hmm!? What is it!?"

"My lord, the Duke of Stoke." Adolf, who was sitting in the fifth row on the right hand of the Duke of Stoke, looked at the magazines on the table and waved his hands disdainfully, "My lord, don't be angry because of such a trivial matter. Look, the above revelations are not true at all. My father knows their editor-in-chief. I just need to ask my father to tell them about it, so that their evaluation of the Duke of Stoke's family will be much better next time! After Adolf finished speaking, he looked at Li Sansi quite proudly.

Li Sansi has now become their public enemy. The Three Musketeers Adolf, Compass and Ordin, when did they suffer such a big loss? The Wuxi monk easily broke the siege of the three people, and then Li Sansi fought with the monk. It is an indisputable fact that the Three Musketeers are even stronger, and they can calculate the strength relationship inside. In this way, their real strength is actually more than one step behind Li Sansi. Li Sansi had a feeling of reverence, but with Su Zixuan present at the same time, they only felt that they had lost face that they could never get back, so they secretly hated Li Sansi, and naturally looked for every opportunity to retaliate against him. Now By saying this, he was naturally showing Li Sansi his family's power in the Eagle Empire, making him fearful.

The Duke of Stoke glanced at Adolf. He had never had a good impression of these noble youths, but he was forced by the power and the pressure of the surrounding political environment, so it was inconvenient for him to pretend to these noble youths who came to pursue his daughter. .

"Although the momentum of the Stoke family is not as strong as before, it does not mean that we are still going downhill. After the attack on Goddess Heart, we did have a dark period." It was folded, and then folded and stacked in the dark cabinet under the table, "But now we are working hard to recover."

Aldin smiled, picked up a red fruit on top of the bread in front of him, chewed it in his mouth, and said slowly, "I heard that the Queen called the seventeen dukes of the Eagle Empire to participate in the aristocratic seminar held by the Eagle Empire. The plan to discuss the government policy, but the Duke of Stoke did not receive the invitation, I wonder if this is true or not?"

Duke Stoke's expression froze, his eyes dimmed, and the knife and fork he was about to use was suspended in mid-air. When Aldin said it at this moment, he obviously mentioned the pain of Duke Stoke. A week ago, the Eagle Queen At the Royal Banquet, the Duke of Stoke, who is far away in Manchester, was not invited. The eight dukes were all present at the same time. Although there was a gap between the Eagle Queen and the Duke of Stoke during the banquet, the two of them at most did not talk to each other, but they never even skipped the invitation like this time.

What the Eagle Queen did repeatedly made Duke Stoke feel chilled.This old woman has almost strong self-esteem and competitive spirit, coupled with a strong vengeance and decisive style, forming a queen of the Eagle Empire who is feared by everyone, even the Duke of Humington, who is fearless. It is undeniable that he will lose three points of energy when he sees the queen.

Now that Ordin mentions this incident, it is because of the hidden pain of Duke Stoke, which makes him feel a little bit chilled in his heart.

The Duke of Stoke is certainly not the kind of person with a beaming face, and he didn't answer Aldin. He calmly cut the steak in front of him with a knife and fork, but most of the noble youths present knew that this matter was indisputable by the Eagle Empire. According to the facts, it seems that the long-rumored news that the relationship between the Eagle Queen and the Duke of Stoke is not very good, should also be true.
