Chapter 13 Chief Executive Officer
(The new January begins, please give me a monthly ticket!!!)
With the preaching of the waiter, the entire wide palace hall that can accommodate thousands of nobles to dine, once became a needle that could be heard.
Everyone casts different eyes at the door. There are surprises, shocks, curiosities, and even hostility.
For the thousands of Shigang City nobles present, most of them have never seen such a nobleman with such a prominent reputation and such a high status.
"Prince of the Reinhardt family? Oh, welcome, distinguished guests from afar!"
This slightly abrupt sound came from the front of the palace, the owner of Shigang City, Earl of Bolmer, sat high on the ornate chair.
Under the delicate crown, the short hair on one end seemed to be covered with white frost, and the big eyes had already sunk deeply. A pair of rough hands grabbed the guards, and the back of the hands were covered with earthworm-like blood vessels. The weather-beaten face was full of wrinkles, and the head-up lines and corner lines were heavy like ravines. The two small eyes were afraid that they were even more turbid than the puddles trampled by horse hooves.
"Oh, people from the Reinhardt family, what are you doing? I have never known the Duke of Northland."
Earl of Bolmer's dementia has already made him terminally ill.
The emotional reactions are becoming increasingly weak and inconsistent, and there are often unreasonable words and actions.
He lost all memory of what happened in the last second. He tried hard to open his dizzy eyelids, his eyesight was reduced to the point where he could not see the scenery five meters away, his judgment was lost, and he continued to shake his fingers and perform some repeated movements.
"Oh! Who did you say you are?"
This is the third speech made by the old Count Bulmer in one minute.
"My Count, don't worry, everything is handled by your chief consul."
Next to the old Earl Bulmer, the middle-aged nobleman in gorgeous clothes nodded and smiled at the old Earl with dizzy eyes. Some shallow fish tail marks appeared at the corners of his eyes. His thick and shiny short hair was very black in maintenance.
But from his light blue sunken eyes, Aaron could sense that there was always an insatiable look in it. His lips, which were often tightly pursed under his high nose, showed the sporadic vitality of this face.
"The heroic Reinhardt family is respected by the world. Unfortunately, the northern continent is under the test of war. Since the death of the old duke, the people of the Reinhardt family have dragged down the reputation of their ancestors. Prince Aaron, if you have any objections to this wedding banquet, I can immediately call the guards to expel you. But if you have other important things and come to Shigang City without hesitation, on behalf of the Count, I welcome you to enjoy this sumptuous banquet... Another sentence is added. My name is Nime, the chief consul of Shigang City, and the host and witness of the marriage between Shigang City and Eagle Nest City."
The nods between the nobles were thoroughly stated, which was the etiquette between the same level or peers. Obviously, the CEO of Shigang City, Nime, was making an arrogant and insulting act.
But I have to say that this person's cunning and insidiousness made Aaron look at him.
The other party's implicit voice is already very obvious, "The Reinhardt family is no longer the Reinhardt of the past. You'd better be honest and at ease. If you have any questions to ask for Shigang City, it's equivalent to asking for me. It's best to talk about it later."
To figure out the other party's words, in Aaron's eyes, CEO Nime got great benefits from Eagle Nest City, and it was obvious that he personally promoted the marriage.
And the next scene made Aaron quickly realize that the palace was actually in power and planned to rebel against the nobles, their targets and enemies. The reality was to control the consul of the old Count's family.
"Welcome to your arrival, Your Highness, Your Highness."
The enemy of CEO Nime is naturally his friend.
Although several old and conservative nobles were just artificial, they showed a very serious expression to look at Aaron. The white beard on their chin was next to the raised bow tie. They all had medals on their chests. They stood up quietly, smiled and bowed.
…………
Aaron's face was indifferent. Who would have blood splashed in the palace today by the nobles of Shigang City today? Obviously he didn't care, and there was no need to reason about it.
On the first step into the hall, Aaron felt a warm smell, mixed with the fragrance of flowers, clothes, meat, and vegetables.
Under the stimulation of these smells, his stomach couldn't help but tighten. Obviously, he was a little hungry.
The most direct impression reflected in the perspective of the beginning of winter is that the cooked red claws of the lobster stretch out from the plate, and the large fruits are piled on the moss of the hollowed-out flower basket; the candles on the branched candlesticks appear longer on the silver bell-shaped cover. The decent tableware is shrouded in opaque water vapor, reflecting a faint glow.
Surprise and timid two colors gathered on this red face.
Under the servitude, Aaron took off his cloak.
The torn clothes seemed out of place with this luxurious palace hall. And amid the secret sneer of many nobles, Aaron took Lidong's hand and walked barefoot in front of everyone. He walked past several dining tables and came to the very end of the corner. He naturally used a knife and fork to cut a piece of beef into Lidong's plate.
"Lidong, tell your brother what you want to eat, I'll help you pick it up."
In a luxurious palace, facing the delicacies that he never dared to think about, and was watched by thousands of nobles, the Beginning of Dong obviously did not dare to be casual.
But with Aaron's smile encouraged, she consciously isolated the eyes and began to eat in small mouthfuls.
On the long dining table in front of me, in addition to the rich food, there were clusters of flowers arranged in a straight line. The napkin was folded like a woman's collar and placed on a wide-edged plate. A small oval bread was placed in the middle of each fold.
Aaron had many court etiquettes in his mind, including cumbersome and elegant dining movements.
But he did not intend to comply, as he thought he was self-deprecating, "The elegant and clumsy dining movements belonged to this group of beautiful and gorgeously dressed reptiles. For a king who has recovered from serious injuries and has suffered severe blood loss and has been hungry for three days, filling his stomach and restoring his strength is the most important thing."
While reaching out to grab the bread and swallowing it in big mouthfuls, Aaron still had the second half of his sentence in his heart, "A conqueror doesn't have to care about the eyes of a group of dead people..."
If Aaron just now ignored the CEO, the marquis and nobles, and his temperament of being hunched but calm in his seat attracted the attention of many Shigang City nobles and suspicion in some mysterious directions.
Then at this moment, his vulgar eating method, coupled with a disheveled little girl beside him, made many nobles feel uproar. It seemed that everyone was sneering in their hearts, "The bullshit prince of the North is clearly a beggar, impersonator, and a bold and arrogant criminal who blasphemed the palace."
Although everyone understands this in their hearts, no one stands up to provoke or question the strange atmosphere. Because compared to what will happen next, this is simply irrelevant.
But nothing is absolute. At this time, there are always one or two self-righteous idiots who will pay attention to this contemptuous and unworthy corner in the palace.
This man was obviously the eldest son of the old Count Bolmer, and the nominal successor of the title, Wakeman.
"Oh, Prince Aaron from the North, I'm sorry to take the liberty. Is your Reinhardt family, in front of the attacking army in the West, have fallen to the point where they have no clothes to wear and no food to eat? Oh, it's so pitiful."
As the protagonist of the wedding banquet, the Earl's son Wakeman sat high on the ornate chair on the steps like his father, beside him, his younger brother and two newlywed wives who were about to marry his brother.
Leather pants, tight waist pants, linen shirt, pink silk collar. The Wakeman Brothers were dressed stylishly and gorgeously today.
Although he had some dark spots on his face, he was not noticeable under his handsome hat, especially Wakeman and his beard that he deliberately prepared.
He was interrupted by an ignorant idiot, causing Aaron to look up his head and look straight at the area on the steps. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the idiot whose head was already hanging on his belt without knowing it, and said jokingly, "Believe me, the inferior nobleman, my crown is thousands of times more gorgeous than yours, but my servant is coming later..."
I have to admit that Aaron's joke was more like a nobleman than his clothes and actions. Many people were amused by this sentence, and no one seemed to believe that this might be a fact.
Perhaps no one knew that Aaron's jokes and jokes were just a kind of self-deprecation for himself. The second half of this sentence might bring a little relaxed atmosphere to the upcoming battle, but when Aaron's eyes stayed in the middle of the steps far away.
The pair of eyes suddenly became very bright and deep, with a kind of warm light inside, as if his eyes were just like a line and had not been opened.
The daughter of the eagle...
The ‘Aaron Redeemer’ I met on the street…
Aaron's sharp pupils overlapped the two figures very sharply.
"Wow, no?"
Above the palace, Lina, the daughter of the eagle, reached out and secretly pulled Catherine's sleeve, with a strange look, "Sister, look, isn't this the beggar on the street? He actually dares..."
At this moment, Catherine seemed to have no idea about Lina's movements. Her eyes focused on the beggar who pretended to be the prince of the North, and from time to time, bursting out warm light from inside.
Katherine looked silent and a light flashed from her eyes with an indescribable light. "Can it really be him?"
Although her face is already very beautiful, these eyes often give her a stronger attraction than beauty.
Compared to yesterday, Lina and Katherine's gorgeous outfits today are very different.
This gorgeous and subtle soft long dress for weddings uses a lot of lace, twill, ribbon, bow, and multi-layered cuts.
The above elements such as wrinkles and pleats, as well as palace styles such as standing collars, high waists, princess sleeves, and lamb leg sleeves, further highlight the beauty of the two eagle daughters.
