Forced To Play Shura Field In Western Fantasy Games
Chapter 62: (minor repair)
The scale of the banquet was not particularly large, but all the people present were carefully selected characters, such as important ministers, nobles, etc. in the royal city, almost all of them brought their families to the scene. Of course, on the surface, the singing and dancing are peaceful, but it is hard to say how the undercurrent is turbulent.
After Yu Yuan was led into the lobby, he had to put on a fake smile to start the business, and suggested to Lin Ling that the female character's attire was really uncomfortable, and the reply was "Thank you for your contribution to the game experience, I This information will be reported to the technical team."
On the other hand, this banquet is not so much to welcome Durand back to the royal city, it is better to say that Fernando is the focus of attention. The new king has been on the throne for less than a month. Although several banquets have been held after the coronation ceremony, the scales are different, but the guests with different thoughts naturally hold their own views on the "new king" and are still inquiring and observing. . On the surface, Yan Yan is smiling, but in private, he does not know if he has ever scolded the words "pseudo-king".
Fernando himself turned a blind eye to other eyes, and his smile on the surface was very well done. Yu Yuan remembered the rumors about him being "violent", and asked Lin Ling, "Where the **** is he being "violent", I think it's okay? Isn't this a spoiler?"
Well, at least I haven't done anything to the queen so far.
"Pretend, don't believe it." Lin Ling gave a very positive answer, "You also know that he is from the Legion, and there are many negative rumors. Anyway, you must be careful when dealing with him."
Yu Yuan thought you were too late, he felt that he had already stepped on the red line.
As the queen, Yu Yuan was naturally surrounded by various female relatives. But if he talks to these ladies, there are ghosts. Whenever a lady shakes his fan and chats with him about things in the royal city, he can only stare at him and pretend to be stupid, and reply "You are right". Smile.
At this moment, a herald came in and announced, "His Royal Highness is here."
The venue suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes turned to the door.
Not long after, I saw a guard coming from outside the banquet hall with no swords around their waists, and it was none other than Crown Prince Durand Durrell who was leading the way.
There was a momentary commotion in the crowd, but it subsided in an instant.
Yu Yuan held a champagne glass and looked from a distance. According to the data, Durand, who had just grown up, already had the demeanor of an adult man. The color of his blond hair was pale to almost platinum gold, which was very different from Fernando. As for his appearance, although he has the tallness of an adult male, his facial features are a little softer. When he glances at his eyebrows, he seems to be drawn with a fine brush.
Durand was the only one who wore a sword. As he strode forward, the cloak on his body floated in a dashing arc, and the group was a little sloppy. It was obvious that they rushed here without first taking a rest when they arrived at the royal city.
The room was so quiet that you could almost hear the sound of thin needles falling. Yu Yuan watched the other person come over, thinking that Durand should go to salute the king first, but why...
Why does this brother seem to be walking in his direction? !
Everyone was watching. In the huge banquet hall, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the returning crown prince actually ignored the king and walked directly to the queen.
The crowd chattering like sparrows became noisy again. Many nobles and ministers quietly looked at the king's face, but the king didn't even frown when he saw this move, as if he didn't care about the rude behavior of the crown prince.
After this farce, it is not known how many versions of the rumors will be circulated.
The young crown prince also didn't care about the discussions around him and the malicious inquiries of some people. He just walked through the crowd, kept looking at the queen, took off his cloak, and let the servants put it away. Like a knight who came back to his hometown after a lot of trouble, he finally returned to the person he wanted to see.
The orchestra played non-stop, and the music in the hall flowed like a spring. Finally, Durand finally stood in front of the queen and saluted.
"Your Highness the Queen."
The people around were hung with a heart, waiting for the next move of the crown prince. On the other side, a minister finally reacted, and was about to scold the Crown Prince for being rude, but saw His Royal Highness gently wave his hand, "Prince Durand is still young, so he must have not seen His Highness the Queen for a long time, so he is anxious, don't care."
He said this as if the crown prince was a child who had to be taken care of by the queen, and the new king himself was only seven or eight years older than the crown prince. For a time, the minister was also a little speechless, but no one came out to refute.
"Duland, you're back." Yu Yuan put down the wine glass, but Durand took his hand and gently took off the thin layer of satin gloves.
Yu Yuan: "?"
Durand leaned down and kissed the back of his hand, the soft touch fleeting. Then, in a voice that only two people could hear, she called out, "Edith."
There was a smile in the sea blue eyes, and the platinum blonde hair seemed unusually soft. From the first feeling Yu Yuan saw, the crown prince and the king were like two extremes.
If it was just a handshake, this scene would be perfectly normal, but Yu Yuan clearly felt another detail—During the kiss, Durant held his hand and quietly hooked it with his fingers. Hooked his fingertips and looked the queen in the eyes at the same time.
The unavoidable Yu Yuan: "..." Gan, so strange.
He withdrew his hand awkwardly, and asked Lin Ling in his mind, "The relationship between us is really that good, or am I thinking too much?"
"After all, it's a child, only a few months into adulthood, and his mother died when he was very young, and he just lost his father not long ago." Lin Ling kindly gave some information within the scope of not spoiling, "You are the queen. , It's normal for him to get 'mother's love' from you, good, don't think about it, it's true that he likes you very much, the game information will not lie."
"..." Give him a ghostly mother's love, and his father's love is almost the same.
Having said that, the message also showed that "the crown prince is very dependent on him", but Yu Yuan still didn't expect their relationship to be so good. The eyes in the arena were all focused on the two of them at this time, but Yu Yuan glanced not far away and could see that Fernando had been staring at him, his eyes sharp like an eagle, passing through the crowd.
It's like "watching" him.
But Yu Yuan didn't care, all his attention was on Durand. His final mission to clear the game was to assist the real future king, which naturally meant Durand in front of him.
From the first impression, although the strength party Yu clearly felt that Durand lacked the strong momentum of Fernando, maybe it was a weakness for being a monarch... But as a game player who is bound to win, Yu Yuan is confident Can bring each other up. If it wasn't for everyone's attention, he even wanted to shake hands with this little prince, after all, he was considered a half-future partner.
After Durand performed this special "kissing hand ceremony", he put the satin gloves back in the queen's palm, and then turned to look at the new king Fernando who was walking slowly.
"Uncle Fernando... No, I made a mistake," he said with a slightly apologetic expression as if he had just realized his slip of the tongue, and saluted again, "I beg your pardon, Your Majesty the King."
This ritual is very deep and very accurate.
Naturally, Fernando couldn't care about such a thing, and he said something. The great nobles around him, the duke and the city lord in luxurious clothes, etc. all laughed and echoed, but Yu Yuan didn't pay attention to it, for no other reason - Durand Said He slipped a small note under the glove in the palm of his hand.
He silently put the note in his palm and squeezed it tightly.
There was no unpleasantness at the banquet. The relationship between the "new king" and the "old crown prince" seemed unusually harmonious. This scene was almost as expected by everyone.
What's more, some big nobles brought girls of their own family's age through this banquet in an attempt to win a chance in front of the new king or crown prince. Although Durand is now embarrassed, at least Fernando will not do anything on the surface. And although Fernando still has a negative rumor that "there is a problem in some aspect", Yu Yuan even heard a lady ask him vaguely in the process of communicating with him, whether the king has any preferences when choosing a partner.
Their purpose is self-evident, all of which are to let their daughters, nieces, cousins in the family and other characters do their best and attract the attention of the king.
As a gamer, Yu Yuan can see some information about Fernando, such as Fernando's living habits and various other preferences.
[Fernando Durrell]
......
[Dislikes: ... floral scent, fluffy critters...]
Yu Yuan smiled and told the ladies, "His Majesty the King likes perfumes with floral scents. He once praised the scent of the maid, but he actually likes small animals in private. Maybe the cat that the lady keeps will be favored by His Majesty. Maybe you can try to bring it to the palace, maybe you will wait for His Majesty's favor."
If there is a chance to add a little block to Fernando, why not do it.
The ladies were a little skeptical at first, and it was difficult to associate the new king's appearance with the description of the queen, but under Yu Yuan's insistence and coaxing, several ladies expressed their gratitude and agreed to the next time. Will bring his daughter and so on to the palace.
After dealing with the characters to be dealt with, Yu Yuan quietly walked to the corner with the wine glass while no one was paying attention, and unfolded the note.
The note has been slightly softened by the water droplets on the wine glass, but the writing on it is still clear.
See you in your room at ten o'clock at night.
Durand asked him to meet tonight, and the banquet won't end until eleven o'clock, which means they all need to leave early.
Although Yu Yuan didn't quite understand why the dignified queen and a prince couldn't meet during the day, he also guessed that it might be Fernando's order or some surveillance arrangement. Now that Durand is surrounded by nobles, he has no chance to refuse again.
Just as Yu Yuan was destroying the small note, a voice sounded from behind.
"Your Highness the Queen."
Yu Yuan was so shocked that he almost threw the note, he quickly covered it with his gloves, turned his head, and the name on the top of the man's head in front of him was [Wheeler Howard].
Howard, the head of the Knights, Nancy told him that this person brought him back from heat stroke, and also bumped into Fernando at the gate of the palace.
"Good night, Your Excellency Howard." Yu Yuan nodded lightly in return.
Howard looks very young in appearance, with wheat-colored skin, reddish-brown hair, and neatly groomed. When he smiles, he shows white teeth and canines. If the game will divide the appearance of NPCs, it is estimated that it is the type of "healthy little wolf dog".
Yu Yuan's information about him was not clear yet, but he had already been flickered by this little sun's smile, and his first impression was a little off.
"How is your body feeling today, Her Royal Highness?" Howard smiled again, making people feel as sincere as if he could see his eyes at a glance, "Yesterday, the incident happened suddenly, I temporarily sent you back to the palace, there may be some rudeness. I didn't apologize to you, Her Royal Highness."
"It's okay, I'm fine."
Yu Yuan had no plans to chat with this brother, he just wanted to perfunctory for a while and leave quickly, but even though he didn't take the initiative to talk more, Howard kept talking to him about various things with great interest.
After a while, Howard remembered the news he heard during the day, and asked again, "By the way, I heard that Her Royal Highness the Queen went to the cemetery last night?"
The new king asked a guard from the palace to find someone in the middle of the night, and finally found the queen in the cemetery, still in front of the tomb of the king of Wales, the news spread privately early in the morning, and Lian consistently accused Queen Edith of being a witch The Chancellor of the Exchequer, who had tricked the King of Wales, sighed silently when he heard the news, perhaps his opinion of the queen has improved.
Yu Yuan knew that he couldn't hide it, and there was nothing to hide, so he nodded and admitted, "Yes, last night I, um... suddenly missed Wells."
He once suspected that his reputation as a queen should be average. After all, he is a stepmother, so the affectionate character setting has always been stable. He thinks this should be one of the main points of customs clearance. As for how many people believe it is another matter, anyway, he played him play. It's okay to cry at Wells' grave if necessary.
Seeing Howard at this time seemed a little touched, Yu Yuan was ready to reminisce about the King of Wales with him for a while. He had read the life information of his "dead husband" during the day, and he was confident that he would not make mistakes in this regard.
Who would have thought that the young knight commander in front of him frowned and said, "You are weak, and there is night wind at night, so you shouldn't go there."
"..." Yu Yuan, who was forcibly labelled as "frail", didn't expect to have such a sudden concern, so he had to express his gratitude, and when he turned his head, he saw that the pointer was about to point to ten o'clock, and he immediately looked for it. Leaving the field with an excuse of intoxication.
"Your Excellency Howard, it was a pleasure chatting with you today, maybe we will have a chance to meet and chat later." Yu Yuan smiled slightly and ran away with his skirt in hand.
He is now very proficient with heeled shoes.
Seeing the queen hurriedly exiting the stage, Howard, who was left in place, seemed to hang his head in disappointment. The tall back fell in the eyes of others, as if it was a dog with drooping ears, which also attracted some female guests who noticed the movement here. discussion.
In fact, the family emblem of the Howard family is in the shape of a hound, and the position he took over from the family and the Knights of the Royal City behind him are also called "Sutton's Hound".
At this moment, the brown-haired "hound" was about to leave when he glanced from the corner of his eye, but noticed a light black satin glove on the high table. He had just seen that the other of the pair of gloves had been held tightly in the Queen's hand.
- This is the queen's stuff.
It's even...used close to the body.
The white tablecloth, the pure black gloves, what a common picture, but it seemed to have a different meaning suddenly in his eyes.
Not even caring if anyone noticed, Howard picked up the glove, which was edged with lace and a pearl dangling from it.
He stuffed the gloves into the pockets of his dress, using almost all of his self-control to not pick up such a thing and sniff it now.
There seems to be a smell left in the air.
Returning the glove to the queen, Howard quickly realized that this was an opportunity to meet each other again tonight, and was about to leave to catch up. Just at this moment, a familiar noble friend came over with a wine glass to say hello. Howard had to stay temporarily and look for a chance later.
Friends talked to him about various recent affairs in the royal city, but Howard listened absent-mindedly, chatting one after another. The satin gloves were still tucked into his chest pocket, exuding heat, and there seemed to be the scent of someone who had just stayed here in the air, and all the details made him unable to pay attention.
Maybe... not to go back.
He picked up his glass and took a sip, still thinking about the pros and cons of the two options, his eyes darkened.
He wanted to make this his own.
