Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
Faced with Angeladi’s invitation to lower her body,
It's not easy for Nok to refuse people.
What's more, I'm standing in front of someone's house now.
If you refuse, wouldn't it mean throwing their face on the ground and crushing it repeatedly?
So, Nok smiled and took Angeladi's hand and gave him a kiss.
"It is our honor to be your guests in your castle, my lady."
"please!"
Angeladi invited with a smile:
"Lady first."
"Let's go together."
"good."
The two were polite for a while, and then walked toward the door together.
Seeing this, Leo and Sophia could only follow quickly behind Nok.
Sol followed behind Angeladi with a dark face.
After that, the officials were confused.
Although they have doubts in their hearts.
But as a supporter of Angela Di, he was not stupid enough to question the identities of the three Nok at the door.
However, the movement at the gate of the castle,
Or it was secretly passed on,
Sent to the Julien family's manor outside the city.
The Julien family's manor was supposed to be inherited by Angela Di.
However, the elders of the Julien family objected and forced Angeladi to hand it over.
They even wanted to force Angeladi to hand over his position as lord.
It's a pity that Angeladi's title and lordship are recognized by the kingdom.
At that time, it was King Louis' mother and the former queen who controlled the kingdom's affairs.
Naturally, I support Angeladi, who is also a woman.
Angeladi also firmly sided with the former queen’s faction.
Support the queen's governance.
However, as King Louis grew older.
There are growing calls in the country for a young king to take charge of the country.
The Minister of Finance and the Prime Minister firmly supported King Louis' rule.
Therefore, the queen had to give in,
It was announced that after the marriage of His Majesty Louis, the government would be returned.
However, in the past year, the Queen Mother has gradually delegated power.
Many of the New Deal were presided over by the current King Louis.
The purpose is to familiarize him with political affairs and warm him up for future governance.
However, there is still a problem.
That's because when the previous king died, the young Prince Louis was elected king.
Then the queen manages the government on her behalf, assisted by the prime minister.
Therefore, King Louis was already king of the kingdom in name only.
But he is not yet a true king in the eyes of the law.
Because he has not held a coronation ceremony yet.
This will have to wait until after his wedding.
Only then can the enthronement ceremony be truly held.
There is another element to the king's enthronement ceremony.
Needs approval from the Holy Church,
The Pope's coronation decree, and a ecclesiastical figure above the level of a cardinal presided over the coronation of His Majesty King Louis.
This is why Angelidi urgently needs Knock Ryan.
Because she used to belong to the Queen Mother's faction.
But the Queen Mother is now taking a back seat.
Angeladi was naturally excluded and pressured.
This is why her brother-in-law dared to jump out and cause trouble for her.
She desperately needs King Xing's trust.
But she used to be a supporter of the Queen Mother,
It's not that the new king will accept the surrender.
Besides, when a woman is a lord,
She is the only one in the country.
If she hadn't still controlled 80% of the territory's troops,
I'm afraid there are people who can't wait to seize power.
Nok didn't know Angeladi's plan,
Smiling, he walked into the banquet hall with her.
Soon, after everyone arrived and sat down, Angeladi announced the start of the banquet.
The three Nocks were placed on Angelardi's lower right hand.
Opposite are Angeladi’s trusted officials,
Angela Di sat in the center seat.
As soon as the banquet began, Angeladi raised his glass and introduced the three of Nok to everyone.
After all, a banquet was held to entertain guests, but the guests were not even allowed to know about it.
That would be rude.
"Everyone, I am holding a banquet here today to entertain my benefactor.
Saved us from the six-headed basilisk that attacked the scheduled ship, and escorted us all the way there
Fisherman's Bay, and by curing the fishmen's plague, we convinced the fishmen and agreed to let us stay in Fisherman's Bay.
The person who has settled down and is waiting for rescue is the young and promising Father Nok Lane!
Of course, protecting us along the way was his guardian knight, Mr. Leogareth.
And Ms. Sophia, a young but experienced adventurer!
Thanks to them for saving me, and thanks to them for being willing to come to our champagne parlor as guests!
We in Champagne don’t have any specialties, but we make pretty good wine.
So let us raise a toast to our guests! "
"cheers!"
No matter whether the people present welcome the three Nocks or not,
They will not fail to show face when the lord is delivering his speech.
So everyone raised their glasses.
But at this moment, an uninvited guest broke in.
"boom!"
The door of the banquet hall was knocked open.
A group of people filed in.
A short blond man dressed as an aristocrat came in with someone.
The man shouted with an angry tone: "Angela Di, what's going on at your banquet tonight?!"
Angeladi looked at the visitor in surprise: "Smoke, why are you here!"
Smoke waved his hand impatiently: "Don't worry about why I'm here.
I heard you invited some people here that I'm not familiar with. "
Angeladi sneered: "I don't understand what you are talking about, Smoker. Who am I inviting to my banquet?
Still need your consent? This is the lord's mansion, not the manor of your Julien family. "
Smoke approached Angeladi and threatened in a low voice: "Are you sure? Your position as lord will not last long.
When our young king ascends the throne, it will be time for you to abdicate.
If you beg for mercy now, I can let you be my woman and continue to enjoy glory and wealth.
otherwise……"
Otherwise, Smoke didn't say.
Angeladi took a step back with a look of disgust: "Of course I'm sure! At least, they are all polite guests.
Unlike some people who come uninvited even though they know no one is there to welcome them. "
Smoke looked at Angeladi and sneered: "Have these people been able to attend this banquet with my permission?
Don’t forget, this is the territory that belongs to the Julien family! Champagne collar can only be named Julien forever! "
Angeladi slapped the table angrily and stood up: "Smoke, this is my banquet.
Who I invite is my business. No need for you to point fingers here!
Also, Champagne collar is a Champagne collar for the people of Champagne collar! It was before your brother became a lord,
His last name isn't Julien either! The reason why it is still named Julien is because my last name is still Julien!
If you don't want to force me to draw a clear line between me and the Julien family, then get out of here now!
Otherwise, I will let you know who the current owner of the champagne collar is! "
Smoke slapped the table: "Don't think that I dare not do anything to you, Angeladi. You have to know,
If you mess with such unscrupulous people with unknown origins, things could easily get into trouble!
What if you are approached by some villain pretending to be someone else and murder you?
I will be sad!
At that time, I can only reluctantly take over the champagne collar and inherit the position of lord!
Ha ha ha ha! "
Angeladi looked at Smoker angrily, annoyed that he dared to humiliate himself like this in front of his men.
He immediately roared: "Guards! You are all dead! Let me, my lord, drive out all these irrelevant people!"
If they dare to resist, treat them as intruders and kill them directly!
I want to see if the Julien family dares to bear the charge of assassinating the lord at the banquet! "
Angeladi’s hand,
Smoker was immediately stunned.
He didn't expect this woman to be so decisive,
How dare you do this to him.
He could only reluctantly leave slowly.
However, when passing by the three of Nok,
He still said maliciously:
“Some people need to put bright spots on their eyes, and not everything can get involved.
Even if you want to get involved, you shouldn't be groveling to a woman.
You can have food with the right person,
Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll end up sitting here,
No life to enjoy tomorrow's wealth! "
After saying that, he took the people, under the supervision of the guards,
He left the hall and walked outside the castle.
Looking at Smoker leaving, Angeladi still didn't calm down.
She glared at Thor at the side and scolded:
"Captain Thor, you are in charge of my regiment of guards and the guards of the castle.
Why was Smoker able to break in without any obstruction!
You should check your subordinates. If any of them are restless,
Clear out early!
Lest you get stabbed in the back on the battlefield one day without even knowing it! "
"This subordinate is guilty! I will investigate thoroughly as soon as the banquet is over!"
"Are you still waiting for the banquet to end? You go now!"
"Yes! I'm resigning!"
Saul, who was named by Angeladi by pointing his nose,
He ran away with a black face.
Angeladi scolded Sol for running away, and then he calmed down a little.
Then he looked at Nok with a half-smile, as if he was watching a show.
It took her a moment to react.
I am entertaining guests today!
"I'm sorry, Father Ryan, you're laughing."
Angeladi apologized to Nok.
Nok waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, every family has sutras that are difficult to recite.
However, your book seems to be a little more difficult, so difficult that everyone is used to it. "
Nok glanced pointedly at the group of people around him who had been silent since Smoker appeared.
He lowers his head to eat and drink, as if he were a bystander.
It seems that these people are not so determined to stand by Angeladi!
Angeladi followed Nok's gaze and naturally understood what Nok was referring to.
But what can she do.
These people still obey her orders,
Those who don't obey her orders,
But none of them came to the banquet.
Even if she is a lord,
She cannot manage all the officials, big and small, that the entire territory needs by herself.
Once someone is not taken care of, they will naturally become the targets of others.
Even if the person is replaced today, the lobbyists will come again tomorrow.
Even if the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, she can't stare at it every day.
Under coercion and inducement, some people will always give in.
It’s not that those around her don’t want to take refuge in the Julien family,
But they dare not take refuge openly and honestly,
Otherwise, the army in her hands would not be vegetarian.
Although Angeladi did not keep a tight grasp on the political affairs of the territory,
But he never relaxed in the army.
No matter how the Julien family bribes them,
None of the generals who led the army had ever betrayed.
Instead, they reported several officials working as lobbyists.
So much so that the Julien family no longer dared to reach out to the army.
Another point is taxation.
Even if Angeladi doesn't care about government affairs, he will not let go when it comes to taxation.
If the tax official dared to give her less than one copper, she would lead her troops and ransack the tax official's house.
Therefore, Angeladi, who firmly holds the money bag and the army,
There is no fear that the Julien family will cause trouble behind the scenes and win people's hearts.
But Smoke made her feel disgusted every now and then.
But it's very annoying.
Especially today, she originally wanted to entertain Nook Lane.
Make the other person happy and then talk to the other person.
Now, the atmosphere is gone.
I probably won’t be able to finish this meal.
