Law of the Devil

Chapter 508 [Night Banquet]

Kalina listened, but she seemed to understand that Charlie was on her own, but she didn’t break it. She just smiled and continued to follow Charlie’s meaning: “It’s just not enough for a northwest. I grew up, there are many places I want. Going. The desert outside the northwest corridor, there are thousands of grasslands, beautiful snow-capped mountains...and the swamps of the south, the vast ocean of the South Sea, and the country of the Nanyang people...the teacher said to us when we first taught us So many interesting things, when I grow up, I have to go and see for myself!"

Although Princess Karina is only ten years old at the moment, when she comes to these, she is quite eagerly awaiting.

"If you like, I will give you desert, grassland, snow mountain, and Nanyang, all of which will give you the land." Charlie haha ​​smiled and waved his hand proudly. In my mind, I can't help but imagine that I will be in power in the future.

The two originally wanted to go to the Imperial Garden, but when they came here, they saw several court guards and led several court medical officers. The few medical officers were born very well.

Charlie saw it here, and he said in a sigh: "Well, is the father sick?"

The little princess did not answer, but just looked at the court doctors who had been respectful and respected. The mouth subconsciously muttered to himself: "Recently, the palace seems to have changed a lot of new doctors. ”

It’s just that the voice is low and self-talking, but Charlie is not aware...

This year's New Year, there seems to be no festive atmosphere.

At this time in the past years, on the bustling streets of the Imperial City, all the shops were overcrowded. A large number of goods from the north and south of the mainland, such as the strange and popular goods, have been piled up. The emperor was originally the most affluent city in the mainland, and naturally it is the fullness of the family.

This year, the snowy road closure, coupled with the war atmosphere in the north, has made the imperial street at this moment a bit more depressed.

In the evening of the last day of the empire in 1965, the heavy snow finally stopped. Martialization and control have begun on the road to the Royal Palace.

A team and a team of horses from the empire's major families are heading to the palace to participate in this year's New Year's banquet.

In the past, this time, the duty officers of the Imperial Police’s office will be busy with the ass. But this year, there is no fireworks ceremony in the palace square. There is no such thing as a rush to see the lively citizens. Everyone is more willing to hide. Blow the fire at the stove at home.

On a big carriage, on a black, shiny carriage. It is the totem line of the tulip family. The dozens of elite tulip families guarding the knights in front and behind, riding the pure black fur horses, and the elders of the guards are at the forefront.

The road is not difficult to walk, and the soldiers in the vicinity of the police station responsible for maintaining order even have some leisurely panic. All the way is quiet. Only the wheels crushed the ice and snow and made a loud noise.

When I arrived outside the palace, I gradually felt the atmosphere of the lively atmosphere. The palace gate opened wide, and I didn’t know how many carriages stopped. The vast majority of the various departments, the major family of the family. Nearly a hundred luxury carriages with different flags and family badges were arranged together and finally met with some popularity.

Du Weidi’s team of horses and horses did not stop at the entrance to the palace because his identity was special. The car of other families will stop at the entrance of the palace. Even if you are a big man, you can only get off and walk into the imperial city. But Du Wei is different. What he is now faint is already the status of the first empire of the empire, plus his recent illness. In the palace, an order was issued, and the horse of the Duke of the franchise was directly driven into the imperial city. This was only the treatment that the royal family could enjoy. The entire empire, except for the few princesses and two princes, others have to walk in the snow.

Du Wei’s car and horse had been driving to a side hall in the palace, and it stopped. Someone took Du Wei out of the carriage and placed it in a delicate wheelchair.

And Vivian and Jojo are two. They are all dressed up. Followed by Du Weidi.

Muse also entered the palace tonight, but Charlie, who wanted to see her women's dress, seemed to be disappointed. Just because the Muse is a knight's dress tonight. The bright red cloak outside, is a set of fine rhino skin, lined with fine cotton robes, a pair of long leather boots over the knee, plus a thin long sword worn around the waist, but It was Muse who had been with Ruolin for a long time and learned from Ruolin.

When Ruolin was mixed in the Emperor, it was deliberately packaged by Du Wei into a heroic knight. Muse was a tomboy from a young age. She didn't like women's clothes. This dress was the best for her heart.

When Du Wei arrived, Mrs. Liszt had already come, but she was waiting in the side hall of the waiting room. She did not go to the hospital to do so.

Mrs. Liszt and other Du Wei arrived, and this was revealed, but it was followed by Du Wei, and entered the banquet place. This is also a very obvious signal, the Lisz family, close to the tulip family! This is a move that shows the close ally of both sides.

It was the Miss Angel, who was more and more silent in recent years, who was absent tonight. Only Muse was behind her sister.

The Regent and the Emperor haven't come yet. In the noisy banquet hall, when Du Wei just came in a wheelchair, suddenly there was a silence.

Everyone is subconsciously looking at the door, looking at the young duke of the most beautiful empire that has been ill at home and has not been exposed for many days.

Du Wei was so lazy in the wheelchair, his face was still three-pointed sallow. This was a deliberately applied color. Even in order to be more apt to his patient status, he deliberately wrapped himself a thick blanket.

After entering the door, the hall was already warm and spring. The palace was designed with a lot of mouths in the corners. There are stoves in several compartments outside.

After entering the hall, there were a few respectful court waiters on both sides, resulting in the coat of the female guest.

The first appearance of Vivian and Jojo in front of the imperial family of the Empire was amazing and amazing.

Everyone knows that the Duke of Tulips seems to have two confidantes who are female magicians, and for these two female magicians, the marriage of the Duke of Tulips even in the early years even the royal family refused.

Nowadays. When I saw this pair of sisters behind Du Wei, many people took a breath and most people gave birth to a "sure" look!

If it is not such a stunning color, the Duke of Tulips will not resist the marriage of the royal family for them!

Vivian was dressed in a white evening dress, but it was very simple, but the cut was very subtle, but she set off her like a quiet and pure orchid, and the hair seemed to be a casual one. But by adding a bit of lazy seductive taste.

And Jojo, it is much more eye-catching. This sexual girl, wearing a red dress, is like a beating flame, but it is in line with her temperament. Originally, it was extremely beautiful, and it seemed to be a ghost.

After seeing a few eyes, the male guests were surprised, but they knew that the two were the imprisonment of the Duke of Tulips. No one dares to look at it, and...and two great magicians are ordinary people able to afford?

However, some women, after reading it, could not help but gave birth to a few points.

Behind Mrs. Liszt, it is still the beauty of a girl’s virginity. It’s just like looking at it, but it’s like a twenty-girl. She was originally the first beauty of the imperial aristocracy for many years, and at the moment she followed a cool muse...

Du Wei came in like this, and he stood four brighter than that. It wouldn't be okay to be blind.

Gabri is a typical aristocratic dress, young and straight, handsome face, the black dress tightly stretched on the body, the extreme shore. He personally pushed Du Wei's wheelchair. The pedestrian came in all the way from the carpet in the middle. And a lot of nobles around, they have come together and Du Weitao.

The duke's ass. It is not a chance to be photographed on weekdays.

Du Wei smiled and nodded, then went straight to the front seat of the main hall.

In the case that the old prime minister did not attend tonight, the hall was only seated under the royal family. No one except Du Wei dared to sit.

Du Wei just sat down, and someone next to him smiled: "Du Wei, I am still thinking, if you don't come tonight, I am afraid it will be boring."

Turning around, it was the Finance Minister who was smiling at Du Wei. The old man's looks are good, and behind him, there is a beautiful girl, but with a shy look, looking at Gabriel next to Du Wei is naturally Gabriel's fiancee Miss Auntie.

Ao Dai came up to see the ceremony, and under Du Wei’s smiling eyes, she was blushing and whispered a "brother."

Next to the Gabriel look seems a little unnatural, subconsciously looked at the Muse, but Muse seems as if he does not care, look around.

An old acquaintance, such as Camisiro, or the Count of Villa, has not yet arrived, and DeLan Mountain Warcraft has been absent this year. It is said that he was appointed to a military logistical office a few days ago and he rushed to the scene. The north went to mobilize supplies.

Du Wei and the old acquaintances sneered a few words, and this time, there is a very good looks, about 50-year-old aristocrats, slowly came over: "Duke of Tulips, hello. First time, your name But often it’s always in my ear.”

Du Wei took a look at this person, but he was very good. This person looks very outstanding. It seems that although he is about 50 years old, Du Wei knows that this is the effect of maintenance. The actual age is only a little older than the appearance.

And this person is wearing a Chinese costume, especially a ring worn on the thumb of the right hand. The inlaid one gem is worth at least 200,000 gold coins. He is so old, but his figure is still tall and straight, and there is no such a big belly in the face of other nobles. The smile on his face is quite a bit of affinity. It is a well-educated real wealthy man. . And those eyes, eyes are not revealing, obviously laughing, but the eyes are still so cold, but it is the kind of habits that are high in the land.

The tone of speech is polite. But it is not humble, the voice is a soft and sweet baritone, or the standard imperial official language, without the local accent, it is the identity of the most nobles.

Du Wei groaned and then frowned. "This is..."

"Oh, you haven't shown up for many days. This is Gaocha. The Earl of the Empire, who was recently given the title of the court marquis. Mr. Gaocha has only recently come from the South and has not yet known you." Haha smiled, but the smile was not so pleasant, and a little more guests, seeing Du Wei still look stunned, whispered: "Mr. Gaocha is General Alpai and the elders of Julie."

When Du Wei listened, it was immediately clear.

Alpayi is the only "political enemy" in the empire that is openly arguing with himself. Although the foundation is not as deep as Du Wei, the Luolin family and the Lisz family are backed up. However, after all, people are now the head of the imperial army, which is a bit stronger than the empire with its empty shelves but no military power.

This high investigation, I want to come to the elders of the Alpai family, and most of them are still the role of the patriarch.

Then count... is also your own political enemy.

Du Wei sneered in his heart. The politeness of the face and the high check back, this Gaocha did not know what it was for and came close to Du Wei, but it seems that the two are friends, chilling a few words. On the surface, a group of harmony, not like a political enemy.

It was the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who kindly reminded me: "After the New Year, Mr. Gaocha is probably going to be the governor of the province of Lille."

Governor of the province of Lille?

When Du Wei listened, he couldn't help but frown.

The province of Lille is close to the Kurt province where the Luolin Plain is located, but it is the neighbor of the Luolin family. For many years, most of the governors of the province of Lille have been dealing with the Luolin family. if not. Everyone lives next to each other. If it is hostile, there will be a lot of troubles on weekdays.

For Duwei, the province of Lille is of some important significance: the province of Lille is a large province in the southeast of the Luolin family, and there are several large port cities in the southern part of the empire. Du Wei's offshore fleet, whether it is Nanyang's trade or other business. They are all in and out through several ports in the province of Lille. Even Du Wei's fleet is officially stationed in a port city in the province of Lille. Also bought a suitable seaport as a base.

But now... the governor of the province of Lille has changed into a political opponent who is against himself...

What does the Regent King want to do?

Thinking of this, Du Weimeiyu screwed it involuntarily.

This high-checking is quite graceful, and it is a demeanor for everyone. Every move is like a martial art.

At this time, the ceremony number finally sounded, but the royal family arrived.

Different from previous years, at this year's dinner, Chen Huangzi and Charlie New Emperor were all dressed up. Chen Huangzi took his son and walked into the venue. Charlie wore a crown, just...the scepter who symbolized the imperial power, but It is in the hands of Chen Huangzi.

After entering the forefront of the throne, he smiled and announced with a pleasant voice: "Today's dinner, there is a good one from the north front line General Rostock. New Year's greetings, this is just sent from the North Fast Horse this afternoon."

Said, he took a red leather piece symbolizing the emergency military situation from the entourage next to him.

"Good news!"

The voice of Chen Huangzi was announced with a pleasant, magnified voice.

Du Wei listened, but involuntarily, a deep frown...

Good news? Oh... it’s strange!

Du Wei held the finger of the wheelchair armrest and tightened it involuntarily. I remembered a document sent by General Andrei North in the last two days, and a secret letter written by the fat man in Longbotton in the north...
