In the colorful garden, a grand engagement ceremony is being held.
“…… Mr. Muse Theron and miss Deborah Byron, you can exchange rings... " The "silver ribbon priest" who presided over the ceremony said kindly.
Silver ribbon priests are senior clergymen of the father''s church. They have a high position in the church and are generally responsible for all church affairs in a city.
According to tradition, the priest is often invited to be the master of ceremonies in the weddings and funerals of foreign nobles. As the Duke''s own granddaughter, Deborah is naturally entitled to let a high-ranking silver ribbon priest preside over the wedding.
At this time, the two maids, holding the gilded jewelry box, quickly came to the unmarried couple on the stage. Muse, wearing a black dress, took a deep breath. In one hand, she picked up a ruby ring carved with complex hollow patterns, and in the other hand, she held Miss Deborah''s white slender hand, nervously putting the ring into her ring finger.
This beautiful and novel ring immediately attracted Deborah''s attention. Her eyes flashed with obvious surprise, and her pretty face couldn''t help showing great love.
Although she is a noble lady, she usually sees many jewels, but the ring with such delicacy is the only one in her life.
It wasn''t until the maid reminded her that Deborah remembered that she should put an engagement ring on her fiance. A red cloud rose from her white face and she picked up another ring in a hurry.
The design style of this ring is quite similar to the one on Deborah''s hand, but its size is larger and the details are different. It is slightly rough, but it is also exquisite and beautiful.
The two rings are obviously a pair. This ring is a male ring and the other is a female ring.
Deborah couldn''t help looking a few more before she put the ring on Moss''s thick finger.
At this point, the ceremony is almost over.
The silver ribbon priest cleared his throat and said with a smile:
"congratulations to both of you. May father''s eyes be on you forever..."
"Wow..."
There was an immediate round of applause in the garden.
Seeing that Deborah''s eyes were almost glued to the ring, Muse whispered:
"Miss Deborah, this ring is made by Renault himself..."
"Ah..." In a daze, Deborah can''t help but look down at the stage, trying to find the figure under Renault''s crown.
She saw Renault at a glance, because his position was so eye-catching. At this time, many nobles surrounded Renault just like the stars.
It is not polite to say that the real protagonist of this engagement ceremony is not moss and Deborah, but Renault!
So in this garden, more than half of people''s eyes are focused on Renault, who is the focus of the focus.
In the alien world, the upanists are so rare that there are only 10 people in the whole human world. Even if they are aristocrats, it is a rare thing to see one upanist with their own eyes.
Not to mention that Renault was so famous. This powerful man, who was born in the world, actually captured another upanist alive. This terrible achievement is amazing.
As long as people with a little common sense know, it''s easy to defeat and kill people of the same rank, but it''s extremely difficult to capture them alive.
The former means that there is a gap between the two sides in combat power, but the gap is not large; the latter is different, which means the advantage of crushing. Only when the gap between the two sides is very large, can one side be captured alive by the other side.
Such a powerful person, and still so young, how can people not be curious?
Deborah took a look back at muse and suddenly sighed silently.
Alas
Why should I marry a bald middle-aged man instead of a mysterious, powerful and young upanist?
She stretched out her finger and looked at the ring on her finger. Under the sunshine, the ring was dazzling, as if with a red halo, which made her deeply addicted.
Alas
Why does the bald man around me only giggle when he can make jewelry and design it admirably?
I don''t know if it''s the lucky lady who will marry Renault
After a moment of melancholy, Deborah forced herself to suppress all her sadness. She gave her fiance a smile and put her hand around her arm. She said with a smile:
"Mr. moss, can you tell me something about the tidal islands? I''m very interested in them. I think I''ll settle there in the future. It''s necessary to know about them in advance..."
Before the engagement ceremony, her grandfather and father repeatedly urged her to keep a close relationship with her fiance, because it is extremely important for the future of the Byron family.
Deborah is also very clear that she is a descendant of the Byron family, born with the mission of safeguarding the interests of the family, her marriage can only be an exchange of interests.
What''s more, she didn''t know how much convenience she got from her family.All for the sake of the family, this is the innate consciousness of an aristocrat.
However, Renault, who has become the focus of attention, only feels bored.
If you were a nobleman, you would be very satisfied with this situation.
Every nobleman has received strict social etiquette training. They are always at ease with this kind of occasion, and what every nobleman assiduously pursues is to become the focus of public attention.
In their view, this is not only their own glory, but also the glory of the family.
But for an unsociable mechanical dog, it''s terrible.
A lot of old men, middle-aged people around you creak, chatter, say people are not interested in the words, it is a kind of torture.
However, this is Renault''s first official appearance in public as an upanist. His every move not only represents himself, but also represents the power he controls.
His every little action, even a casual glance, or a trace of displeasure, will be seriously interpreted by many people and treated seriously.
Since they participate in a certain game, they will be coerced by the rules of the game, which is something the upanists have nothing to do.
Just after dealing with a count, the count left, and the next gentleman appeared in front of Renault, as if they had made an agreement.
There are still a circle of people around. Obviously, they are all waiting in line for the "audience", and they don''t know how to discuss the order of the audience. Anyway, Renault didn''t find any communication between them, only saw them step forward one by one, in order, without any confusion.
"Distinguished Renault, please allow me to introduce myself. I''m Sloan ebech, and now I have the title of viscount..."
"It''s my greatest honor to see a powerful upanist crown with my own eyes..."
"How do you do, viscount ebech..."
As soon as the Viscount ebech opened his mouth, he would flatter him, but these flatteries have been repeated many times. Renault is tired of listening to them. Only out of politeness, he has to show his seriousness and listen to them again.
“…… I''ve been using the toothpaste and toothbrush sold by your Chamber of Commerce. They are really great inventions. I''ve never seen such a good product for cleaning teeth... "
“…… When is your Chamber of Commerce going to hold another exhibition in Copernicus? After experiencing the products of your Chamber of Commerce, I plan to replace all the similar products used in my family with Haichao brand.... "
Renault squeezed out a formulaic smile and uttered a sentence that has been repeated many times:
"Viscount ebech, we are already in the process of preparing for the exhibition..."
"It''s really good news. I can''t wait for it..."
Viscount ebech immediately gave a smile of surprise, as if he were really looking forward to it.
But Renault knows it''s impossible.
The real purpose of this Viscount''s running here is to express a meaning:
Mr. Renault, the reason why I have to give you a sum of money is to let you know that I am trying to get close to you
“…… By the way, coronation, I have a very presumptuous thing, I want to trouble you... "
"Last year, there was a serious reduction in grain production in my territory. At present, several villages are running out of grain, and I can no longer support the hungry villagers..."
“…… I heard that your Chamber of commerce is in urgent need of manpower. Can your Chamber of Commerce provide a job for these 500 villagers? If so, I am willing to pay a certain amount. What do you think of the 50 silver nals
Just now it''s money. Now it''s people.
"Grain production reduction" is a lie. Renault has heard all sorts of excuses before. There is only one purpose - please accept the poor villagers.
Like a granary fire
For example, rain leakage in granary leads to grain mildew
There is also a guy who talks about "unfortunate encounter with thieves, food was robbed"
It''s absolutely speechless.
It has to be said that these aristocrats are very good at flattery and flattery.
When Renault collected the population, she had to buy it from the Duke of Castro, and miss aleeti took the opportunity to collect a handful of wool. She paid a great price to get tens of thousands of people.
But now, every nobleman starts with 500 people. In just half an hour, Renault has received nearly 10000 people.
The most touching thing is that they not only don''t want money, but also plan to pay for it.
Ah, it''s good to be a mystic
"Of course Renault gave another smile.
"Your kindness is amazing..." Viscount ebech looked very grateful. "I''ll contact Mr. Goodall of your Chamber of Commerce right away and send them as soon as possible."
At this time, a waiter came with a tray carrying several glasses of red wine and asked respectfully:"Dear crown, would you like some red wine? This is the best quality red wine in the Duke''s collection, starry night wine
Renault nodded:
"give me a drink, and a drink to Viscount ebech."
