Chapter 1351 Formal talks(1/2)
"Now, let's sing together!"
Egg dodged another soldier's embrace, turned his head and cheered loudly to the nobles looking below, and then continued to play.
Of course, it was impossible for the nobles to go crazy following this elf, but such a lively tune made the little prince smile.
After seeing this scene, Sevia on the side stretched out her hand and stopped the soldiers who were still planning to come up.
The soldiers gradually retreated, which basically meant that the prime minister's wife acquiesced to such a scene.
In addition, this bard's playing skills are really profound. If anyone with more than a thousand years of playing experience were to play, I'm afraid the strings would be a little heavier, right? But now it sounds like
But it is the joy of youth just like a new life!
Seeing this, the musicians over there were silent for a moment, then returned to their seats one after another, picked up their instruments and looked at the conductor. Even the player who had his lute taken away now took another one.
Holding him in his arms, with a calm look on his face.
And when Egg's music enters its final chapter and the next chapter hasn't started yet...
Wow——————
The music played again, following the rhythm of Yi Ge, and began to fill the entire banquet hall with a unique sense of rhythm and rhythm!
Listening to such a performance, Ji Lian couldn't help but open his mouth and said in admiration: "President, this time, we picked up a musician for nothing. On weekdays, it would be nice to let him play the piano to entertain us while we are eating.
"
The official next to him said, "Is this the strength of a performer who has been playing for thousands of years? Well, it is a pity to be a bard with such strength. If he is willing to join the palace band, he will definitely be able to make a name for himself in the world."
People are just relatively cheap.
Ariel felt that she was also a bit mean.
Just now, she felt that she had suffered a loss by allowing Egg to join the Mermaid Song for no reason, but now when she heard someone snatching her from the side, she immediately felt the urge to protect her food. At that moment, she said goodbye to the man next to her.
The official glanced at the elf who was sitting on the edge of the rostrum with joy, closing his eyes and playing the lute to his heart's content. At the same time, he also deeply despised the bad nature of human beings like himself~~~
And things happened just as Ariel expected. After a while, a waiter slowly walked out of the crowd and walked up to Ariel and other officials from Blue Bay.
"Everyone from the diplomatic corps, Her Majesty the Queen invites you."
Seeing this waiter, Ariel really felt as relaxed as if her heart had finally returned to her chest.
She held her chest and exhaled a long breath, then turned to the officials next to her.
These Lanwan officials stepped forward and briefly introduced Ariel's identity as Viscount. The waiter did not show any signs of strangeness, but nodded, as if he had expected it, turned around and began to lead the way.
Since everything is going well now, Ariel can only continue on this path.
She turned her head and looked at the sweet cheese next to her. The real eldest princess was now involuntarily feeling a little nervous. She seemed to be planning to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, she still closed her mouth.
He said nothing in silence.
At this point, the Blue Bay Empire envoy, a team of approximately fifteen people, followed the waiter.
When leaving the banquet hall, Ariel once again glanced at the prime minister's wife standing on the podium over there.
At this moment, Sevia seemed to have not seen these Blue Bay envoys at all, and continued to coax the little prince with a smile on her face, staring at the elf who was still sitting on the edge of the rostrum playing.
It seemed that during such a beautiful performance, she no longer wanted to care about the people in the envoy.
Leave the banquet hall and walk through a long aisle.
Although this Crystal Crown City is not as majestic as Hanhai City, the castle built according to the mountains does give people a very unique strong beauty.
After walking along these winding corridors built against the mountains for almost ten minutes, the waiter stopped, stepped aside, pointed to the front and said: "Her Majesty the Queen is waiting in front to welcome you all."
Following the waiter's gesture, he saw a completely open platform in front of him.
Different from the actual mountain road ground that everyone is stepping on now, the platform actually seems to be completely suspended in mid-air! This huge platform is only relying on a dozen chains as thick as arms to hit the surrounding cliffs and mountains.
Hang here in the air.
Stepping onto the platform, Ariel lowered her head. She didn't know what material the ground was made of, but she could vaguely see the city below dotted with lights!
To be honest, just by stepping on this platform, Ariel could feel as if her heart wanted to be pinched in someone's palm, unable to relax at all.
Looking up, the platform is neatly divided into left and right sides, with rows of neatly arranged tables and chairs on both sides. Above these tables and chairs is a shed carved from the same translucent rock.
To block the snowflakes that fall from time to time in the air.
To the south of these two rows of tables and chairs, a larger and more magnificent table and chairs were placed alone. At this time, nearly a hundred fire altars were lit on the entire platform, lighting up the platform.
It was like daylight. And Her Majesty the Queen was currently sitting on the main seat covered with animal skins, looking at Ariel silently.
"Ah! Da..."
With the light of those fires, Sweet Cheese saw Dak, who was still dressed as a woman, sitting at the first position of the table and chair on the left. She blurted out and wanted to shout, but was immediately pulled by Mochi beside her. This time she
I didn't dare to speak.
Dak now slowly turned his head and looked in the direction of everyone.
But when his eyes fell on Ariel's face, a hint of surprise clearly flashed through the Berserker's eyes!
Immediately afterwards, a touch of regret and regret was added to this surprised color for no reason, but then it turned into an expression of joy and relief.
However, he immediately turned back to avoid letting his expression be seen. It was only after Ariel and others came to his desk and chair that he turned his head and nodded softly, saying softly: "Safety."
, that’s good.”
Ariel smiled slightly and then took a seat at the first seat below Duck generously.
Such behavior naturally made Sweet Cheese, who was about to sit next to her, look very dissatisfied, but for Ariel, she did not dare to make any noise now, and could only aggrievedly want to sit down next to Ariel.
It's a pity that her idea still didn't succeed, because next, Cream sat down next to Ariel, followed by Mochi.
Originally, Jelly seemed to want to sit down next to Mochi, but when he was about to take a seat, he saw Sweet Cheese standing here, silently clenching his fists. After hesitating for a moment, the boy finally remained silent.
After giving up that position, he took a seat at the back of those Lanwan officials.
After seeing that the only empty seat was the one next to Mochi, Sweet Cheese saw that no matter how dissatisfied he felt, he could only sit down now.
Ariel exhaled slowly and looked at the queen.
However, there is also a row of people sitting on the other side of the Queen, opposite the Blue Bay Mission. It seems that those people should be officials of the Orion Empire.
"As the Queen of the Hunter Empire, I once again welcome everyone from the Blue Bay Empire to come to my country."
Once she left the warm environment of the banquet hall, the queen's eyes immediately became sharp. Especially after she no longer had to worry about her image in front of her son, the queen's posture even became tougher——
"For the sake of future peace between our two sides, I believe that we will have a lot to talk about."
Ariel glanced at the hunter seat official opposite.
Unlike Blue Bay, where there are a large number of women, the officials opposite are all men. However, these people can appear here now. It can be imagined that these people must also be the elite officials of this country.
Feeling the vaguely falling snowflakes in the air, one of the officials sitting opposite Duck opened his mouth and said slowly -
"So, Princess of the Blue Bay Empire, Her Excellency Sweet Cheese Blue. This time you came to my country as a representative of the envoy. You must have some demands, right? Tell me what you think."
Facing the officials opposite, Duck just maintained that very cold expression.
Considering his beauty, maintaining such an expression is actually enough. You can imagine that the next thing will be left to Ariel.
At this point, Ariel slowly exhaled and said: "Sir, I am a member of this mission, Viscount Ariel Garcia. In this mission, except for your noble Majesty the Queen,
Apart from the conversation with our Princess, I will be responsible for this conversation. Please tell me, how should I address you?"
Obviously, the officials on the opposite side were not prepared for the fact that a cute little girl like Ariel appeared as the talker of the envoy.
After being stunned for a moment, the official muttered something to himself without knowing what he was saying, and loudly said, "I am Blinken Willy, Chief Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Ora Empire."
Ariel nodded and smiled: "Hello, Mr. Willy. In that case, I will first come to make formal representations to your noble Majesty the Queen on behalf of my respected Majesty the Emperor of Blue Bay."
"We hope that you will immediately stop disturbing our border, return all the territory that we annexed at the beginning of last year, release the people, and return the materials and wealth you plundered. At the same time, we also need you to suddenly tear up the agreement and prepare for the annexation of our country at the beginning of last year.
To begin to provide an explanation for the sudden and constant attacks on our territory."
Ariel's words seemed very strong.
After all, this is not a normal business transaction, but a collision between two countries. If you show any signs of weakness, you may end up in a place of no return.
The bureaucrat opposite was obviously not surprised at all by Ariel's current toughness. He hummed and nodded, and said: "I see, are you here to beg for mercy?"
"Begging for mercy? What is begging for mercy?!"
Before Ariel could say anything, Sweet Wine Cheese, who was sitting next to Mochi, couldn't hold it in any longer. She slapped the table in front of her and stood up, shouting loudly——
"Do you really think that we don't dare to do anything to you? Let me tell you! My brother... Our noble Emperor has deployed heavy troops. If this negotiation fails, you will be prepared to bear the wrath of the Blue Bay Empire.
Bar!"
Blinken Willy, who was on the opposite side, glanced at Sweet Cheese and said, "Your Majesty, Viscount Garcia, is this your subordinate? Please take care of your subordinate so that she does not disturb Her Royal Highness the Queen."
Another official next to him snorted coldly and said slowly: "Madam, this is no longer the masquerade party just now. Can you please take off the mask on your face? You have the courage to speak, but you don't have the courage to show your true face.
?"
Obviously, in the Blue Bay Empire, the impulsiveness of Sweet Wine Cheese, the real eldest princess, has become an obvious weakness, and she has begun to be openly attacked by the officials on the opposite side.
Seeing this, Duck, who was sitting next to Ariel, couldn't sit still. He stood up slowly, opened his mouth, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "If you want to fight, we will accompany you. We are not afraid of fighting, but we can talk.
Sincerity. What about you?"
To be continued...
