Chapter 188

What is nobility?

In the rumor, nobility is a self abasing education, an omniscient wisdom, an inexhaustible wealth, an indomitable power, or an innate identity

In short, nobility is all the pursuit of high society, which was Miss Emily's cognition of the whole world.

Then she met ziegfried and her cognition collapsed in an instant.

What is nobility?

Calm as a pool, gentle as water, arrogant, not angry.

When he stands there, heaven and earth will spread around him. When he speaks, there will never be conflicting evil thoughts in his heart.

He is the only, the center, the spokesman of God walking in the world, and the collection of goodness and beauty from ancient to modern times.

He is noble.

Miss Emily's heart beat wildly, her face turned red and her soul floated away. Looking down at the end of the world, there was still only one picture.

Siegfried hugged her.

The so-called gentleman is clearly holding the waist of the woman she met for the first time. What Miss Emily can feel is only noble support and dependence, not mixed with the evil thoughts of half men and women.

In this way, he took her out of the dangerous confrontation area and returned to the end of the grass slope where he started.

As soon as the footsteps stopped, Miss Emily's spirit returned. She was full of shyness, reserve and hesitation.

"Mr. Narlow..."

Acharin nodded with a smile and replied, "am I abrupt, Ernie? Shouldn't I just hold you like this?"

"No... not..."

"Do you like it? Or are you scared and weak? I won't let go. You can lean on me."

Miss Emily blushed with shame: "no... neither..."

Acharin clearly reached out, grabbed Miss Emily's clenched fist and gently covered her waist.

"Well, Ernie, I'll leave the decision to you. When my legs and feet recover their strength, you don't have to tell me, okay?"

What a gentle man!

Miss Emily felt her spirit floating again, her body completely out of control, nodded to herself, and gently squeezed out a "um" from the depths of her throat.

What the hell am I doing!

The shy young lady was distracted and did not notice that acharin had looked away, and the expression on her face changed from gentle to solemn.

"No matter men or women, reputation is the most vital treasure in their soul."

He announced loudly like a preacher, his figure was like a javelin, and the inviolable dignity rose to the sky, which shocked Miss Emily back to reality.

"If anyone steals my money bag, he just steals some waste, some illusory qualities. They have been transferred from my hand to his hand and have been slaves to thousands of people."

"But whoever steals my reputation, although he is not rich, I will become destitute because of losing it."

"Mr. officer, it's your crime to falsely accuse me of stealing. Stupid crimes may be forgiven, and slander and jealousy are not spared!"

"Price!"

Acharin shouted. After watching the play for a long time, Lorraine Qiang pulled out the long knife on his waist.

"Do you bear the price alone and gamble with my guard leader, or hide in the crowd like a coward and let these incompetent sergeants die for you?"

"Choice!" he ended his speech with the strongest pause.

"Choose!" Lorraine clenched his voice and taught on the spot.

"Choice!" a group of guards who can't speak French at all are learning and selling, and their voices are all over the world.

Zirned's face was livid.

He is a proud man and an excellent soldier. He has never suffered defeat in love or battlefield, but this time, he seems to be doomed to defeat.

Why?

He doesn't understand.

Under the threat of death, his mind has not become more acute. He still doesn't know why the situation will develop so far, and how to remedy it without losing dignity. He can't even be 100% sure whether it is a dream or true

Maybe when the lead bullet penetrates his chest, he will shout and sit up from a girl's bed, just like the end of every nightmare?

Death... Is the end of the dream?

Zilned giggled without warning, the more intense and louder he laughed.

Just as he was about to die of laughter, he suddenly heard Miss Emily's timid voice.

"Forgive... Forgive."

"Hmm?" acharin and zilned were surprised at the same time.

"Forgive me... Mr. nallo." Miss Emily buried herself in acharin's chest, summoned up her courage and pleaded softly, "Mr. captain, you have offended you. You have countless reasons to kill him. But... But he is my father's guest. There will be a welcome dinner for him at home tonight. If he dies here..."

"Unexpectedly..." acharin hesitated for a moment with his expression. "If he dies, will you be blamed by your father?"

"Yes..."

"In that case... Aini, are you hungry?"

"Those sailors can't shoot sea birds, and the reckless captain doesn't want to eat bread..."

"Poor child." acharin loosened Miss Emily's waist, held her shoulders, and kissed her forehead across the veil. "Then eat it here. Although there are only some simple dishes, at least the wine is good."

Miss Emily blinked vaguely: "Mr. nallow, about the captain's crime..."

"Major, please have dinner together." acharin smiled quietly, and suddenly scraped the tip of Miss Emily's nose. "The LORD sent an angel to redeem you. I just hope you can learn piety."

……

The sun sets and the moon rises, and it turns into night.

Leloran was full of people, and luxurious carriages flowed continuously. In the past, rare dignitaries crossed the streets in groups and drove to the same place.

Tonight, sir prio, the regional speaker of Parliament, will hold an official welcome dinner at his home for major zilned, the captain of the Defense Fleet frigate.

This is a golden age.

Sir prio, the host of the banquet, is the richest man in leloran. His family controls the three most fertile plantations in the town, covering a total area of more than 2000 mu and raising more than 1000 black slaves.

The guests of the banquet were the Navy heroes of the whole Caribbean who were famous for their handsome and romantic. They were not only unparalleled in popularity, but also the best young officers in the comprehensive evaluation of the French colonial fleet.

Leloran is located on the side of the Atlantic Ocean. The gentlemen in the town rely on the Defense Fleet a lot, so this banquet is of great significance. Whether it is the host or the guest, if the relationship with one of them can be further, it is a great victory in the social field for the local celebrities.

What's more, it is said in the circle that a more distinguished big man will make his debut at leloran's banquet tonight.

Although because of security and other reasons, the one who pushed off the status of guest of honor would hide his real identity, it is for this reason that celebrities are excited.

There are few people who know the existence and who will accompany him. None of them can find him in the vast banquet. Once successful, it may mean an exclusive social intercourse that lasts all night.

How much profit can this experience create for the family?

The gentlemen thought excitedly, talked freely, laughed and looked forward to it. The atmosphere of the party had climbed to the first climax before the real opening

On the other side, inside the mansion.

Miss Emily, wearing a beige whale bone corset and holding her chin, was stunned in front of the wide dressing table.

Mrs. prio and her sister came together, and the laughter was clear before they started.

"Ernie, let's see how beautiful the heroine tonight is?"

Miss Emily looked back blankly, looked at her, twisted her neck back, and sighed deeply.

The lady was stunned: "Ernie, I heard you've been a little out of your mind since you came back from hunting today. Isn't... The hunting not going well?"

"No, mother, today is the best date of my life."

"The best?" the eldest sister smiled clearly. "Mother, it seems that Ernie is in love!"

"Are you in love?" Mrs. prio was too excited to herself. "Sure enough, sure enough, Captain zilned was as gentle and considerate as rumors. It was the first time to meet, and she actually let Ernie fall in love!"

"Captain?" Miss Emily recalled zilnaed's poor performance during the day and pouted uninteresting. "He's good. Probably, those women who haven't seen the world in the inland can't resist his charm."

Madam and elder sister heard something wrong.

"What? There's a third person on today's date?"

"We just happened to meet..." Miss Emily fell into a happy memory. "He came to leloran to visit his elders. He happened to go to the beach today. Because of a coincidence, he invited me and the captain to enjoy simple Chinese food."

"Ah! It's what he said. It's obviously too luxurious. There are authentic French dishes cooked on site, which are simplified into a nine course dining sequence, which is the same as his father's hospitality for distinguished guests. Mother, are there thirteen authentic French meals?"

Mrs. prio frowned and thought for a long time: "I seem to have heard from her best friend that only the most exquisite nobles still keep the habit of thirteen meals. The main reason is that there are too few chefs who can cook authentic French food, and there are only a few in Martinique, mostly concentrated in Fort France..."

"No wonder he's not very satisfied. Although he has always been very gentle, he said it three times. He also said that only meal wine is good."

"What meal wine?"

"Liqueur is freshly mixed, champagne is Pinot Noir, and dry red is Porto... Mother, do you know that Porto in Louis XIV period is the best taste, but unfortunately, we only have Louis XIII today. Fortunately, champagne is the top wine in the 15th period. If not, he would blame himself even more."

Miss Emily inadvertently threw out bombs one by one. Her wife heard it again and again. Her eldest sister was already numb.

"You just said, this is a simple meal for an outing?"

"Yes, the freshly picked, on-site baked berry bread is really delicious. The sugar free fresh jam is completely different from the jam at home!"

"He... Ernie, do you know his... Name?"

"Mr. nallo? He said his name was zigfei. It's a beautiful name. It's beautiful and noble."

"Ziegfei nallo... Ziegfei von nallo..." the lady took a deep breath, "Ernie, I want to tell you a secret about the real guest of honor at the party tonight..."
