Saildora's second piece is with Bavar. Hayes danced, and after the dance, the princess of Marstar once again declined her brother's invitation. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoShe's not the type of person who likes balls, not just because she's rebellious as a teenager, but out of nature.

In addition to Princess Nastasya at the ball, there are no beauties who have not interested her for a while, and the black swan is surrounded by many people at the moment. Cyodora didn't want to go over at this time, because if it did, everyone would compare her to Nastaxia. Cyodora was disgusted with being compared, so she decided to sneak out to get some air, and avoid the insincere compliments. So she walked towards the cloister outside the door, and it happened that the envoy from afar was also outside. Cyodora decided to go and talk to him.

"Your Excellency Lan Feng, why did you hide here?"

"Ah, it's His Highness Sailodora," Lan Feng hurriedly beckoned, "There's nothing to do here for the time being, so come out and take a walk." ”

"Who are these two?" Saildora looked at the other two.

"It's all friends I've known for a short time." Lan Feng replied.

"Does Your Excellency Lan Feng like to make friends with the attendants?" Cyodora asked with some contempt.

"It's natural to make friends with people who are worth associating." Lan Feng heard what the other party meant, so he said so. It's tactfully defending Mazik and Floris.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, if you really have some free time, why don't you dance the next tune with me." Said Cyodora.

"Is the next group dance next?" Lan Feng asked cautiously.

"It's not."

"I only learned the simple steps of group dance, if not, I may have to frustrate you." Lan Feng said apologetically.

"Lord Lan Feng really only dances in groups." Floris couldn't help but help.

"I didn't ask you, miss." Sailodora replied, "Your Excellency Lan Feng, it's rude to refuse a lady's invitation. Is this the etiquette that your country's envoys should have towards the royal families of other countries? ”

With such a big hat buttoned up, Lan Feng only had the share of disarming and surrendering. He said goodbye to Mazik and Floris, and then obediently took Theodora's hand and returned to the hall.

"Astal people...... "Mazik muttered. Florise stared at Celedora's back with an angry expression, thinking that she was slandering things like "My Highness is ten thousand times cuter than you."

The consequence of this was that Lan Feng was the center of attention, and the young man who was not much taller than Odora was clumsily dancing with the princess there. The people of Mastar laughed at the envoy from the east for not being good at dancing, but they were worried about their princess acting in this way.

"Your hand should be on my waist." This is the fifth time that Sailor has reminded Lan Feng.

"But...... All right. Lan Feng just lightly touched the other party's clothes.

And Michelle, who easily defeated the Redknapp brothers to grab Fiona, heard her dance partner muttering there: "Cyodora is so cunning." ”

Prince Minox also saw Princess Nastania squint at the somewhat incongruous pair for a moment, but Nastania quickly diverted her attention.

When the embarrassing time for Lan Feng was over, after the two sides thanked each other, Saildora handed her hand in front of Lan Feng again.

"It's etiquette to send the lady back to the place where she rests." The princess reminded.

Lan Feng had no choice but to hold the other party's hand again, but it was actually Sailor who dragged him around.

"Your Highness, where do you want to go?" Lan Feng couldn't help but ask.

"Just follow me." Celedora finally spotted Fiona in the crowd.

"Good evening, Your Highness." Fiona greeted first.

"Good evening, dear Fiona, I've brought someone for you." Theodora pulled Lan Feng in front of Fiona, then turned to Michelle, "As for you, the eldest prince of the Lance family, come with me now." ”

Michelle can only obey his fate, otherwise Theodora will definitely pull him by the ear and drag him away.

"Uh......" Lan Feng paused, "Miss Hayes, can I ask you to do the next group dance?" After being taught by others for a long time, you should be able to cope with it easily, and it won't be as bad as just now. Do you think it's okay? ”

"Yes." Fiona took a deep breath and handed her hand to Lan Feng.

This group dance is the last piece before the break in between, and anyone who doesn't want to make vases all the time in the first half of the night joins in, making it one of the most lively moments of the ball. Even Sigrani herself accepted Count Marcheni's invitation and stepped onto the dance floor.

In the melodious music, the people danced. It is a relatively simple dance and has a large number of participants, so it is popular with many people. In addition, there is a dance partner in the middle of the dance, and if you don't pay attention, you may dance with someone you don't expect. Although people who have studied math and have the heart to calculate can know exactly who their other dance partner is, most people don't care about it, and they are happier to face that uncertainty with the mentality of chance.

Lan Feng jumped with a clear eye, for fear of making some mistakes. However, such caution did not bring Miss Hayes pleasure.

"I mean, don't you have anything to say to me?" Fiona asked.

"Huh?" Lan Feng paused.

"Don't miss the beat!" Fiona immediately reminded.

"Ah, not good." Lan Feng had already blocked the people behind him, and the other party cursed in a low voice.

"Miss Hayes, I think I hope you will forgive me if I have offended you in any way. I don't know how I offended you, but rest assured, you're a savior. What you need to do for you, you must die in the next place. Do you think that's okay? Lan Feng said sincerely.

"Fool, who wants you to die." Fiona muttered something out of her head. Then she wanted to turn her head and say something to Lan Feng, but it happened to be the time to exchange dance partners.

Just when both of them were surprised, the exchange of dance partners was completed.

"Your Excellency Lan Feng, it seems that you haven't forgotten what I taught you." This is the laughter of the Reynolds black swan.

"Miss Hayes, I'm Minox, and it's an honor to be able to dance with a beauty like you for a while."

"Ah, ah, Her Royal Highness Princess Nastasia, what a coincidence." Lan Feng could only say this.

"yes, that's a coincidence, isn't it?" Nastasya continued to smile at the handsome young man. When he faced himself, he was still as nervous as he was last time. I feel like if I don't hold on tightly, the other party will retract their hands behind their backs. Of course, Nastasya had already calculated the position of the dance partner when she was exchanging partners, and it was not a complicated mathematical problem. When she caught a glimpse of Lan Feng and Celedora dancing together, she suddenly felt a little worried, but fortunately, Celedora was not very interested in Lan Feng.

"It's not a bad jump." Lan Feng asked with a smile on his face a little reluctantly, he wanted to relieve his tension by speaking.

"Very good."

"That's fine."

"So, when it's time for the second half of the dance, can you dance alone with me?" Nastasya asked. Seeing that Lan Feng was a little embarrassed, she hurriedly said again, "You have already skipped with His Highness Theodora once." ”

"It's a terrible jump." Lan Feng finally thought of such a sentence.

"Then let me teach you personally, I can be considered a good teacher, right?"

"You did teach very well."

"Then it's settled."

"Huh?"

At this time, when it's time to exchange dance partners again, it's time to change back to the original dance partner. When Minox returned Fiona to Lan Feng, he whistled at the messenger from the east. Miss Hayes looked at Lan Feng with a disgruntled expression again.

"It's nice to be paired with Princess Nastasya again, aren't you?"

"His Highness is a kind and kind man." Lan Feng replied.

Fiona just snorted, and then never said a word.

At half-time, Nastasya couldn't wait to talk about Minox about his experience at sea. Princess Renoske's concern aroused the curiosity of many people. The people of Mastar still remember the itinerant Justices of Falunsi, after all, Sogrend is the only foreign champion in the history of the Mastar Sword Tournament. And since then, the champion of the sword tournament no longer enjoys the treatment of making a request to the emperor. Although the prize money has been increased, the champion will no longer be called "Juggernaut" and thus receive other privileges. In other words, Saugrand is also an unprecedented figure in this regard. On the other hand, Her Majesty the Empress and his affairs are still widely known among the people, and they are often one of the important topics of conversation. There are always people in Mastar who make a similar assumption: if Her Majesty the Empress had been able to keep Sogrend, perhaps Mastar would have achieved the greatest hegemony since the collapse of the Yartikat Empire. So, when it comes to Sogree Leus, the people of Mastar, including Sigrani himself, will of course be of great interest.

Minox was naturally very proud of having a large audience, not to mention that there were so many beautiful women in the audience.

"Well, when it comes to that adventure, I'm sure someone will ask me what the cause was. In fact, it is easy to guess that our family will only take the biggest risk for one thing, and that is naturally to win the favor of beautiful ladies. If you've been traveling around the Ihl Sea a lot, you've probably heard legends about the mysterious island of Arlan and the magical country above it. ”

"What kind of legend is that?" Nastasya asked.

"I'll tell you a little bit about that legend." "There has always been a legend that there is an island called Yarlan in the Sea of Ihel, and that there is a strange tribe living on this island. The tribe is dominated by women and the zhan is dominant. In addition to the fact that the women of this island have the courage to be inferior to men, there is also a special reason - that is, for some reason they can only give birth to girls, and the chance of giving birth to a boy is very small. For this reason, they often attack coastal areas to plunder the population and perpetuate their race. In addition, they often invite some male guests to visit the island. Such candidates are carefully selected, and it seems that they think that only the offspring that have been bred from strong, intelligent or good-looking people are better. ”

"It's kind of sensational." A noble lady of Mastar commented.

"As you say, my dear lady." Minox replied, "That's what I thought when I first heard about it. But perhaps because of their policy, it is rumored that their upper-class women have quite good looks and figures. ”

"So, how do they choose those guests?" Nastasya asked.

"My dear princess, this is exactly what I am talking about. Through pirate gangs in the Ihel Sea, they set up locations on the mainland to receive guests. As an aside, the Ihel pirates have attacked the idea of the island more than once, but it seems that they have suffered rather painful defeats. Therefore, the pirates had no choice but to ally with the island of Arland. I was fortunate enough to have an invitation through some special relationships. Ah, gentlemen, please don't look at me so eagerly, I won't tell you how you got this opportunity. And there is also an element of luck in the success of this matter. So even I don't expect to be in that place again in my lifetime. Minox joked, "Well, I will say that the truth is that the rumors do not exaggerate that place, it is indeed a place of beautiful women. ”

"Is His Royal Highness holding a storytelling session here?"

"Ah, Your Majesty Sigrani, two Highnesses," Minox hurriedly saluted them along with the others, "and I happened to be about how I became acquainted with Lord Sogre Lus on my ship to the island of Arran. ”

"Oh?" Sigrani smiled, "I'd like to hear it too, Cyodora, and you should stay here and listen to His Royal Highness tell him about his legendary experiences." ”

"Yes, Mother." Cyodora said with her head down, her bangs shadowing her face even more.

"Your Highness Minox, please go on." Sigrani turned to the prince and said.

"As you command, my beautiful majesty," Minox continued, after finishing his veil, "at the place where we are to be disembarked, the person in charge will verify a special token, and only those who hold it will be allowed to board. Our tokens are presented by the intermediary, and after the other party verifies them, the tokens will be confiscated. And only one person is special, he himself appeared there with a token. He was wearing a hood at the time, and none of us could see his face clearly. In addition he has a special right, he can keep his own weapons, and the rest of us are not allowed to carry weapons on board. Although he didn't show us his weapon, I could tell from the shape printed on the cloak that it was a sword and a saber. It's not unusual for many people on the mainland to carry both weapons, but I'm afraid that there are very few people who carry both weapons at the same time. ”

"You should have made sure he was Thorgrande Leus."

"My esteemed Highness the Crown Prince, although I have already made such a guess, it is still too early to draw such conclusions. If I hadn't seen the amethyst on the hilt of the 'Tooth Moon' sword with my own eyes, I thought it would be imprudent to make a judgment. Oh, of course, you have already affirmed that that special person is Lord Leus, and you are smart, so I won't sell anything. That privileged guest was Lord Leus. ”

There was a burst of exclamation, and although most people had already guessed the answer, they still couldn't hide a little excitement when Minox revealed the mystery. This is the incorrigible hero-worship complex of the Mastar aristocracy. At this point, the rest of the audience was focused on the story, and since Lan Feng didn't know how high Sogland's reputation really was, he could distract himself a little to notice that Cyodora didn't show enough interest like the others, and even she seemed a little disgusted to hear the information.

"With the observation of Lord Leus, I guess His Highness Minox has also caught his attention."

"Your Majesty really knows Lord Luce very well." Minox said this, a bit of a joke, but it was basically a compliment to Sigrani and the Mastar. Since the death of Archduke Leon of Field, the people of Mastar naturally take it for granted that their empress is the only person who can match Thorgrande.

"Actually, after I learned that it was His Excellency Leus, I was a little indignant in my heart, if you remember the trivial incident many years ago, you should understand the feelings of me, who is an elder brother. So, I provoked him and prepared to duel him. Minox went on to tell the story.

Hearing the word "duel", the ladies exclaimed, and the men all clenched their fists nervously.

"Why duel for no reason?" Lan Feng didn't fully understand Minox's words.

"Because Lord Luce once rejected the marriage of Hitarus, in order to strengthen the relationship with Farensi, Hitarus proposed to marry the third princess Iphigonea to Lord Luce, but was refused. In this way, no one wants Princess Hitarus, and of course the woman's brothers will be somewhat resentful of him. Fiona explained.

"Is there anything wrong with that princess?" Lan Feng asked.

Of course not, Lord Luce has repeatedly clarified that it is his fault, but he would rather bear the blame of Cetarus than marry again. What a strange person. Fiona said.

"And what was the result?" Sigrani naturally knew the ins and outs of the matter, and she was even more proud when she heard about it at the time.

"He didn't accept my duel, but I punched him twice." Minox shrugged his shoulders.

"He really is." Redknapp interjected.

"A coward who can't even run away from a duel?" The crowd followed the prestige and saw the side face of Theodora.

"I don't think so, Your Highness." Minox said solemnly, "I brought up the duel for a personal vendetta, but Lord Luce understands that neither of our lives is our own personal nor the family's, so it is only natural that he refuses to duel with me. ”
