This day, early in the morning.
"Teacher, let's go."
"Um."
Su Lun looked at his two disciples and nodded.
Now the situation in Lingdun is very strange, and the undercurrent is surging. The big change in the near future will definitely hurt the whole Lu Ying, and many top forces may reshuffle. Karma and Albuquerque are not strong enough for them to protect themselves under such a big wave. Especially as the disciples of Su Lun, once they are exposed to the public eye, they will inevitably have too much trouble.
The previous thing is an example.
Beside the steam car, Karma looked at her gloved hands with slightly complicated eyes.
Under the gloves are a pair of silver hands, which are mechanical hands that were previously kidnapped and chopped off.
Although it does not affect the manipulation of puppets and life, it is still a deep memory.
These days, I have been recuperating in the Small Void Realm, and now I will be separated when I come out. Kama looked at Su Lun, her eyes sparkling: "Teacher, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
Su Lun shook his head with a smile. It was because of him that Karma was not careful enough.
He touched Kama's forehead and said, "Kama, Albuquerque, you should be more careful in the future. Go and see the world more."
Encountering setbacks is unfortunate in life, but overcoming it is a reward and a valuable life experience.
Now that Karma and Albuquerque have left Lington to practice, it is the beginning of a new adventure for them.
"is teacher."
The two nodded and stepped onto the steam car that took them to the pier for a boat ride.
Su Lun watched the locomotive disappear on the corner of the street, looked at the time again, and called a passing taxi.
Although I don't want to go out,
But today was the day when he and Yekaterina agreed to attend the wedding banquet, and he had to go too.
......
When I got into the car, the driver asked, "Where are you going, sir?"
In Lington, people who can afford a taxi are rich or expensive, and the driver did not look down on the young passenger in casual clothes.
Su Lun pondered for a moment and said, "North City, Rose Lisé Avenue."
"Okay! Sir, you are seated."
When the driver heard the name of the street, a suspicious look appeared on his face.
Those who can live on that street are all Lu Ying's top dignitaries and real bigwigs.
But looking at the casually dressed passenger, it doesn't look like a nobleman.
Moreover, the big men have their own cars and accompanying servants, and it is rare to come here by taxi alone.
Thinking about it, the driver asked with a smile, "Mr. is a reporter?"
Su Lun chuckled noncommittally.
The locomotive drove all the way, tried the Lingdun Iron Bridge, and came to Beicheng.
Su Lun hadn't gone out for many days, but he also read a lot of reports about the grand wedding in the newspapers.
Lu Ying's top aristocratic wedding was naturally not small. Su Lun sat in the back seat and looked at both sides of the street through the glass window. The flower beds were replaced with red flowers representing festivity, and the gas street lamps and plane trees on the roadside also All hung with red ribbons, a beaming scene.
As soon as he turned into the Boulevard Rose Lisée, Su Lun watched a group of reporters with cameras blocking the entrance of the manor, taking pictures of all the guests coming and going.
Dressed up guests will come down from every car and carriage, and they will be surrounded by reporters for interviews on the red carpet.
These reporters watched taxis approaching, probably thinking they were colleagues, but no one came to answer them.
There are mounted police to control traffic, and taxis can only park on street corners.
The driver said, "Three hundred lisos, sir. Thank you."
Su Lun listened and handed out three hundred-denominated banknotes.
The driver took the money and added with a smile: "Today is the big wedding of the prince and the princess. You are so lucky to be invited. Oh, I heard that Princess Ekaterina is as beautiful as a fairy tale. . Reporter, you can take a few more photos, I hope tomorrow's newspapers can see your work..."
Sullen smiled.
He opened the door and got out of the car, the sun was shining brightly and warmly on him.
The sky is blue.
This is the first time that Sullen has seen such fine weather after coming to Lington for so long.
Blue sky, white clouds, white pigeons, colorful streets, dreamy like a fairy tale.
Sullen walked towards the crowd.
"Mecherseth Manor" is the private estate of the Lance family in Lington and one of the top ten mansions in Lington.
It is not yet time for the banquet to start, but there are already guests who arrive early.
Sullen walked through the press, and everyone turned a blind eye to him.
When he reached the door, the butler in a tuxedo politely stopped him, "Sir, please show your invitation."
Of course, Su Lun didn't have an invitation. He only said indifferently, "I'm 'Fick Regardi'."
......
Meanwhile, in the manor.
In a luxuriously decorated and girly room, a group of maids were busy.
Ekaterina was sitting at the dressing table, and several makeup artists were helping her with eyebrows and eyes.
"Miss, Madam asked me to ask you, that Mr. Fick from Regardi hasn't appeared yet. We will meet guests later, do you want to remind me?"
"No. He'll be there on time."
"Yes, ma'am."
The butler came and went.
As a bridesmaid, Anna, looking at the more and more beautiful girlfriends in the mirror, has stars in her eyes, and has been amazed eighty times: "Wow...Katyusha, you are really really super beautiful! I If it's a man, you will definitely be dizzy~"
How could she not know that her best friend, even if she applied Fendai thinly, was already overpowering the crowd. Dressed up today, this beauty is even more dazzling, making people unable to take their eyes off.
Not only her beauty, but the most special thing is the increasingly ethereal temperament of Ekaterina.
Anna doesn't know what happened to her best friend recently, but it just feels more and more ethereal, as if the last bit of mortal breath on her body has gradually faded away, just like an angel in myth.
Ekaterina listened to the joke and smiled slightly.
With this smile, she looked even more beautiful in the mirror.
Looking at her good friend's demeanor, Anna looked even more exaggerated and intoxicated, "Oh, that 'Master Fick' must be the happiest man in the world who can marry such a beautiful girl."
After a pause, she thought of something again, and asked, "But then again. That 'Master Fick' hasn't come yet? I heard that I haven't seen any figures in Rhaegar, Katyusha, you Aren't you really worried?"
Ekaterina laughed, her expression not worried at all.
She originally wanted to say something more, but at this moment, she seemed to sense something and said, "He's here."
Anna was taken aback.
coming?
what is coming?
"Um."
Ekaterina nodded.
The beautiful eyes turned, and she said again: "Anna, can you help me bring him here? It's in the living room. By the way, help me with an apology. It's not convenient to go there in person because I haven't finished my makeup. ."
"what?"
When she heard this, Anna was even more stunned.
Did you realize that it was Fick?
But...
Now that you are married, the prince of your dignified Regadi family is not on the man's side. What are you doing at the woman's house?
Although it was strange in her heart, she didn't look at her good friend as a joke, and replied, "Okay!"
With curiosity, Anna walked briskly to the reception room.
Sure enough, she saw Su Lun, who was still wearing casual clothes, sitting on the sofa like a guest.
......
Su Lun had no habit of being late, and came half an hour earlier than the agreed time.
But when he came, he discovered that this grand wedding, his situation was actually quite embarrassing.
He and the woman are exchanging interests, they are outsiders.
And the man is also an outsider who has no trust in addition to beware.
It seems that the "groom" alone represents a third party.
Thinking about where to go, only to come to Yekaterina first.
The people in Regadi had contacted by various trustees and asked him to meet a few days ago.
Sullen ignored it.
He didn't want to deal with those guys who had murdered him twice.
The current situation is that even if the Rhaegardi family is not happy with him, there is nothing he can do about it.
And after today, the identity of "Fick" is completely useless.
Su Lun didn't have to give face at all.
He heard that Ekaterina was putting on makeup, and it didn't matter that he planned to wait in the living room.
After all, they have only taken hundreds of thousands of tons of rare metals and ores from the Lance family, and they still owe their favor, so they have to pay a little bit.
What's more, if you lose face, you will also lose "Fick".
Su Lun did not have any psychological burden.
Unexpectedly, not long after he sat down, Miss Anna, whom he had met at the Royal Academy Ball before, came to greet him.
......
"Mr. Fick, are you here to find Katyusha? She asked me to tell you that she is wearing makeup, so it is inconvenient to come and pick you up in person..."
Anna was wearing a **** low-cut bridesmaid dress, but she didn't care at all, and she didn't mind holding Su Lun's arm.
After all, we have danced together before, not unfamiliar, and the impression is not bad.
Su Lun knew that this was Ekaterina's best friend, so she didn't have anything to say, so she walked over.
After talking about the business, Anna wentssips again: "Mr. Fick, why are you here?"
Su Lun thought about it, things are not complicated, but it is hard to say.
He only responded lightly with a few words: "Agreement."
"what?"
Anna blinked, as if trying to find out some big secret.
But seeing that Su Lun didn't say much, she didn't ask any more questions, and instead chatted a few words to praise him for being handsome.
Su Lun also responded politely, complimenting the lady bridesmaid with a good personality.
At this time, the two had already arrived at the door of the room on the second floor that was clearly the lady's boudoir.
Looking at the maids who came in and out, Su Lun still hesitated a little, wondering if it would be rude to go in now.
But thinking that he was invited, he walked in magnanimously.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw Yekaterina sitting at the dresser, nodding and smiling apologetically at him in the mirror, "I'm sorry. You have to sit for a while, and you'll be ready for makeup in a while."
"Um."
Su Lun looked at the pretty face in the mirror that looked like a glamorous filter, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
Ekaterina in front of her was as beautiful as her whole body was glowing, which was really amazing.
But he didn't have too many fluctuations in his heart.
At this time, a maid had moved a stool, and Su Lun sat there, watching the servants put on makeup around Ekaterina.
He could be considered to have seen the extravagant life of a top noble once, and Su Lun saw more than 50 servants entering and leaving the room just by carrying water and delivering things.
Fortunately, with Anna, a familiar girl, it is not boring.
East chat, West chat, the atmosphere is also very harmonious.
This girl has a good personality and high emotional intelligence. She knows that "Fick" is going to get married here, obviously there is another secret.
But she was also very knowledgeable and didn't ask more questions, and most of the topics were complimenting the beauty of the bride.
After a while, several makeup artists stopped all at once, apparently finishing their makeup.
Several servants walked in again holding an extremely luxurious red and black dress.
Even if it was a dark-toned dress, it was dazzling under the lights, shimmering with a gorgeous, rich, yet mysterious luster.
Anna looked at this dress and couldn't hide her envy: "This dress is called 'The Nightingale of Rocco Valenne', and it's inlaid with 700 of the world's most precious black diamonds. It's really beautiful. The whole Lu Ying, You can't find so many black diamonds anymore. Oh, only a dress like this can match the beauty of Katyusha..."
It looks like it's time to change the bride's clothes.
When Su Lun saw this, he was about to get up and avoid it, saying, "I'll go out for a while."
Unexpectedly, before standing up, Yekaterina, who was not far away, said, "No need."
She obviously knew that Su Lun was in an embarrassing situation now.
If he really let him go out, he was really "an outsider".
There was no strange expression on her face, she smiled softly, and said, "Mr. Su Lun just stay here. It's okay."
She called Sullen, not Fick.
Su Lun was a little surprised when he heard this.
This time, he was originally here to be a tool person, although he didn't mind it, but Ekaterina's shyness did quietly ease the momentary embarrassment.
He clearly knew that it might be a clever way to win over and show his favor, but he couldn't feel disgust at all.
Hearing this title, Su Lun felt as if he saw the girl with big braids who always had stars and poetry in her eyes.
She is full of kindness to the world, innocent, brilliant and simple.
It was indistinguishable for a while.
When Anna on the side heard this, an ambiguous smile appeared on her face.
She felt inexplicably in her heart that the atmosphere at this moment was so enviable.
......
My lady spoke, and the maids didn't care that there was a man in the room, so they got busy.
Ekaterina was wearing girly pink home clothes.
Changing the dress didn't require her to do anything. She was standing in front of the full-length mirror, and the maids helped her unbutton her clothes, and then took off her top. Because the pajamas I wore after taking a shower in the morning were empty. Although the waterfall-like big wavy purple hair covered most of her beautiful back, through the full-length mirror, she could just see her full face and the arrogance on her chest.
Nephrite jade warm fragrance, panoramic view.
First the shirt, then the trousers. My lady acquiesced, and the waitresses took off their clothes.
Yekaterina was tall and slender, with long legs and perfect proportions.
Without clothes, her figure is even more clearly seen.
The soft light sprinkled on her delicate skin, exuding a charming luster like white porcelain.
She is elegant and vulgar, with an air of fairy spirit.
Even though her figure was almost completely exposed to the air, her beautiful face did not show any strange color.
She looked at herself in the mirror with a calm expression, and seemed to appreciate her own beauty. Even when her eyes met Su Lun, she responded with a generous smile on her face.
Just this smile, like a princess in a fairy tale came out, and a strong poetic lingering in the whole room.
Su Lun didn't avoid his gaze, but he didn't stare at it deliberately either. But it's like reading that beautiful passage in a fairy tale, the whole person is immersed in the scene, and there are dream-like scenes in front of them.
Yekaterina's calm expression also made Su Lun feel extremely calm. He seems to be admiring a beautiful work of art, charming and wonderful.
Anna couldn't take her eyes off the side, and was stunned for a moment before she praised in an exaggerated tone: "Katyusha's figure is really good!"
As she spoke, a slyness flashed across her eyes, and she asked Su Lun who was beside her: "You said yes, Mr. Su Lun?"
Only then did she know the other name of the original Mr. Fick.
Moreover, listening to her best friend calling out just now, she also guessed that there is probably a story in this name.
Only this inquiry made Su Lun wake up from the feeling of being immersed in beautiful poetry. His eyes took another look at the wonderful figure, and then he restrained, and responded, "Yes."
Hearing this, Yekaterina in the mirror moved her brows slightly, and quickly pursed her lips and smiled.
But there was no joy or sorrow in her eyes.
Su Lun felt that illusory state for a moment, and murmured in his heart: "It's very strong..."
There was not much to retain the beauty, and the waitresses helped Ekaterina put on a dress, and the wonderful spring light was also covered up.
This set of "Roco Valen's Nightingale" is a long gothic court dress, and it is also the mainstream of Lu Ying's upper class in recent years.
In addition to the hundreds of precious and luxurious black diamonds, the skirt still has a halo flowing, and under the light, there is a little light in the black gauze, as bright as a galaxy.
After Yekaterina put it on, it was as if she was wearing the entire galaxy on her body.
......
News of Sullen's presence at Mecherseth Manor spread quickly.
The people on both sides of the Lance family and the Rhaegardi family breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they didn't know why Su Lun appeared directly in the manor, it was always someone who came.
The head of the Regadi family, His Majesty the King of "Regadi XI", who is also the father of "Fick", arrogantly sent someone to summon him to visit him.
Su Lun ignored those people and went nowhere.
If you are offended, you will be offended, thinking about whether the other party will be able to bite him?
I asked many times, but he didn't go.
Helpless, the Rhaegardi family could only send someone to bring the wedding dress.
Even if "Fick" is a concubine, he is still a prince, and his clothes must be exquisite.
The clothes sent were a set of black uniforms of the Storm Cavalry Regiment, which were once the uniforms of the Royal Legion of the Marfa Empire.
Su Lun, a big man, doesn't need to make up, and it's simple to dress up. He was in Ekaterina's room, and the maid changed his clothes for him, and borrowed the hair that the makeup artist had done by the way.
His temperament and appearance are outstanding, and when he dresses up casually, his temperament suddenly rises.
Yekaterina was also neatly dressed, and there was still a little time before the wedding started. There was nothing to do, and the two played chess leisurely in the room.
......
The manor was busy, there was a little noise outside the window, and many guests came in and out one after another.
But even in this girl's boudoir, there is a quiet and peaceful atmosphere.
By the window, the sun was shining brightly, the birds were chirping softly, and the greenery outside the window also spread to the house.
Two wedding protagonists in full costumes are playing chess in a leisurely manner.
This time, Su Lun realized that Ekaterina's chess skills were very high.
Su Lun himself has stripped all kinds of skills, and his chess skills are not bad, at least the skill level is almost impeccable.
But in addition to the skill level, chess art also has a higher level.
Suren knew, but didn't touch it.
And Ekaterina is on this higher level.
Even if Su Lun has the ability to multi-purpose, he has no advantage in playing chess with Ye.
Her chess skills are far-reaching, domineering, and decisive, and she doesn't look like a gentle lady who looks so harmless to humans and animals.
After the hand talk, Su Lun also recognized something else.
Neither were first in line to their respective families. Therefore, to outsiders, this marriage is purely a political exchange, and it does not have much impact on the situation.
But Suren knew that "Fick" was indeed a tool man in the eyes of the Rhaegardi family.
But Ekaterina is definitely not!
Even though she is only the fourth daughter of Grand Duke Lance, her status is extraordinary.
At least since they played chess, no one dared to disturb them.
There's even a little interlude.
Just now, Su Lun sensed the "Duke of Tulip" Bartolo Lance who had beaten him up in the North Sea. The duke sneaked to the door of the room, and looked at something furtively. Then he was discovered by his daughter, and after a glance, the duke's father, who was so majestic in front of outsiders, slipped away like a thief.
Sullen didn't pretend not to see.
Ekaterina did not deliberately hide anything from him.
The chat continues.
"I have asked the butler to write the Isaac alchemy manuscript in the list, and the people from Rhaegardi will bring it when they hand over the gift list. It should be available tonight."
"I have arranged for the factory to start secretly refining the medicine for the red death. But the number of finished products is not enough. It will take at least a few days to have enough medicine to solve the problem. And once the medicine appears in the world, it must be done well. The preparations for tearing the face off with the Priory of Giants will inevitably lead to major changes. My teacher still needs some time to prepare..."
"Are you a disciple of Master Pierre?"
"Well. Except for my father and Mr. Jing of your organization, only you know this news."
"Oh. No wonder."
"The leader of your organization went to visit the teacher a few days ago, and I happened to be there. Mr. Jing said some ideas of dawn, and the teacher said it was very good..."
"..."
Two people on the chessboard, you move one step at a time, I move one step at a time.
The chat atmosphere is good.
There are serious things, and some details of life, as well as art, poetry, alchemy, and so on.
The two are like new friends who have just met, and they have a lot of topics and gradually become familiar with each other.
This sunny day, if you don't do anything else, just play chess by the window for a day, it seems to be very good.
But just as he was going down, there was a knock on the door: "Miss, it's almost time for the wedding."
Listen, Ekaterina glanced at Su Lun and invited, "Let's go, the wedding is about to begin."
"Um."
Su Lun nodded with the same expression.
Weddings are not as fun as chess,
Completely routine.
The waitresses outside the door came in and helped their lady sort out the dresses, as well as Su Lun.
Suddenly, Ekaterina thought of something, she tilted her head to look at Su Lun beside her, and said sternly: "By the way, can you get to know me again? My name is Ekaterina. Of course, you can also call me Ka. Qiusha."
Su Lun was a little surprised to hear that.
In just a few games of chess, it was as if I had met a new friend.
The corners of Su Lun's mouth overflowed with a kind but polite smile, UU reading www. uukanshu.com pondered for a moment, then stretched out his hand, "Hello, Miss Ekaterina."
The two shook hands, and Ekaterina responded with a smile.
ps. I wanted to write this plot well, but I didn't like it. Calvinka's is very good. In the future, I will mark the daily chapters I write, so if you don't want to read them, just skip them. Please don't scold me.
