Chapter 213: The Dinner Party

People got out of the car and couldn't stop looking into the distance.

There stood many priests in black robes.

The ambassador winked at the driver.

The driver walked forward, and after a while, he returned.

"The Holy Sect is investigating suspicious people and has found several officers of the Revolutionary Army."

"Caught?" The ambassador asked.

"Already killed by the saints."

Several people fell silent.

After a few more moments, the road was cleared, and cars began to pass through the checkpoint.

The ambassador waved his hand, and several people got into the car and followed the traffic forward.

The traffic stopped and went, and from time to time there were gunshots and shouts from a distance.

Whenever this happens, the car has to stop again.

The ambassador sighed and muttered, "It seems that there are still many forces who want to go to the banquet to cause sabotage. ”

"Has the situation in the Holy Kingdom been chaotic to this extent?" Gu Qingshan asked.

"There are three forces seizing power inside, and Fuxi secretly exerting power outside, and murderers and sea beasts are wreaking havoc everywhere but no one is cleaning them up." The ambassador said.

"The Holy Kingdom is now a hell on earth." Another official chimed in.

Although Gu Qingshan knew this, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

In the carriage, the expressions of several people dimmed.

Finally, Gu Qingshan and their car arrived at the inspection checkpoint.

I only heard someone shouting outside: "Report, this is the car of the Federal Embassy." ”

"Diplomatic Missions...... Release. A hard voice said.

A few people looked out.

I saw that on both sides of the road, there were all the Holy Cult troops.

The tall and mighty man, dressed in a white robe and holding his arms, kept looking at the car.

Saint Ivan.

His eyes were squinted and his body leaned forward slightly, looking like a ferocious beast ready to hunt its prey.

Through the car window, Gu Qingshan glanced at him.

"Huh?" The saints sensed it at once.

He knocked on the window.

Gu Qingshan pressed the window and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The saint looked at his military uniform, then at the Medal of Freedom, and said, "I told me what's the matter, it turned out to be an officer of the Federation. ”

"What's the matter?" Gu Qingshan said indifferently.

The saint's eyes showed cruelty, and he said, "I haven't fought against a high-ranking officer of the Federation, would you like to fight with me?" ”

In the car, several people looked nervous.

Gu Qingshan laughed and said, "You are a saint, you stopped my car just to learn from me?" ”

He looked interested: "It just so happens that I have long wanted to learn about the Heavenly Chosen Technique of your Holy Sect. ”

He opened the car door and was about to walk outside.

Saint Ivan looked at him closely, and when he saw that he had such a reaction, he showed a look of disappointment.

Gu Qingshan was dragged back by the ambassador.

The ambassador poked his head out and said coldly to the pilgrims, "Are you sure you want to fight our officers?" In such a place? ”

It was already rude for a diplomatic mission to be invited to a banquet as a guest, and it was already rude to be stopped on the road, and now it was actually provoked by the host to send his men to fight on the side of the road - if this really happened, it would become a big joke in the history of the diplomacy of the Holy Kingdom.

It would be a humiliation to the entire Free Federation, with unpredictable consequences.

Therefore, although the ambassador was just an ordinary person, Saint Ivan did not dare to take it.

The saint took a step back, didn't bother to look at Qingshan anymore, waved his hand and said, "Let them go, let them pass." ”

The barricades were quickly removed.

After the car drove out for several miles, an official was about to open his mouth to speak, Gu Qingshan waved his hand and pointed to his ear.

Those who can do diplomatic work abroad are all people who are clear-minded.

When the man saw Gu Qingshan's movements, he immediately shut his mouth.

After a long time, it wasn't until the car stopped at the gate of the manor that Gu Qingshan said: "According to the agreement, I will do the dancing matter, and you will listen to the goddess." ”

A few people understood as soon as they heard it, and got out of the car silently.

Immediately, a concierge came to drive the car away, and then a butler-like person came over, politely greeted a few people, and led them into the hall.

It was a grand banquet.

Celebrities, state dignitaries, and guests from all walks of life at home and abroad gathered.

Everyone was ushered to a pre-arranged table to sit down and wait for the dinner to begin.

It is inconvenient to move at this time, because any vacant seat will attract the attention of the concierge serving the banquet.

Gu Qingshan wanted to go to the room on the third floor to find the potion formula, and he had to find the opportunity after the dinner.

The ambassador sat in the first row, alongside the diplomatic envoys of the Fuxi Empire.

Gu Qingshan, as a military attachΓ©, was arranged in the third row.

Those who sit here are all nobles who hold minor official positions or are not too high-status.

People here don't have much to do, they don't need to pay much attention to their words, and their expressions are relatively relaxed.

The two military attaches of the Fuxi Empire were very interested in Gu Qingshan and took the initiative to talk to him.

Gu Qingshan didn't care, in his previous life, he was more familiar with the Fuxi Empire than the Federation, and he mingled with the two military attaches in just a few words.

It didn't take long for an elegant piano sound to sound.

The sound of the piano is melodious, but it is far away, and the volume is neither high nor low, which just does not affect people's whispered conversation.

At this time, the host of the banquet, Madame de Pontaux, arrived.

She is indeed very graceful, smiling and looking forward to her words and deeds, and her eyes are flattering.

As soon as she arrived, several important guests stood up and greeted her with a smile.

After a while of greetings, she sat down in the middle of the first row of the banquet, with a prince of the Fuxi Empire sitting on her left hand, and the tall and mighty white-robed saint Gu Qingshan had seen earlier sitting on her right.

"Are you looking at Ivan?" The military attache of the Fuxi Empire noticed Gu Qingshan's gaze.

"Yes, saints of the Holy Sect, it's hard not to be noticeable." Gu Qingshan Road.

"Their combat effectiveness is too strong, and they are not afraid of death at all, so it is really difficult to deal with." Fu Xi military attache smacked his lips and said.

By this time Madame de Pondu's speech had ended.

The chatter in the hall ended, and plates of dishes were served.

The dinner officially began.

By this time, Gu Qingshan had no choice but to sit down and finish the meal.

It was the sumniest dinner he had ever had since the end of the world.

Ragasius cooked in white wine is garnished with oysters, shrimp and other seafood when plated. Each guest is served a pan quail, smoked chicken, roast beef, potato wedges, citrus ice, fresh white rolls with sweet cream, jams, jellies and candied fruits, fancy cakes and hemispherical ice cream.

There are several pairings of wines, with champagne and wine for ladies and a variety of full-bodied distilled spirits for men.

Gu Qingshan picked out a bottle of wine, and a waiter behind him came up to help open the wine and fill it for him.

This wine is clear and transparent when poured, excellent in quality, and very refreshing to drink.

Gu Qingshan couldn't help but feel a little emotional while eating and drinking.

How many ordinary people are struggling on the verge of life and death, but here, they are still enjoying themselves according to the standards of peacetime.

While eating, people talked in low voices, and from time to time let out soft laughter.

Such a dinner party, even the most discerning aristocrat, has nothing to fault in the current period.

Everyone was very satisfied, even Gu Qingshan, who came for other things, was also satisfied.

Next up is the ball.

In the beginning, it was some softer music to help people get used to the atmosphere and soothe their mood.

The ambassador took a few people around him and quietly prepared to leave.

And Gu Qingshan stood up, politely asked the location of the bathroom, and got up to leave.

When he came to the bathroom, Gu Qingshan closed the partition door, patted the storage bag, and took out the portable miniature migrant.

"Liao Xing, it's time to work." He said.

"Here, well, this distance is good, there will be no deviation, the space jump will take about thirty seconds, you wait." Liao Xing's voice came from the migrant.

Thirty seconds is fleeting.

"The original location is recorded, the destination is locked, and the migration begins." Liao Xingdao.

Gu Qingshan looked down and saw that the Leaper had already started working.

In the next second, he disappeared with the portable miniature regetter.
