After all, it was the first banquet held by Queen Brunhilt after she came of age, and it was still very topical in the social circles of the empire. As a result, the number of guests attending this banquet reached less than 100,000 people.
And only one tenth of them received a formal invitation.
In the era of the home star, it would be almost unimaginable to hold a high-end cocktail party attended by 100,000 people, but it is not Yu Lian’s turn to worry about such things. After all, this is the empire, and their ruling class likes this most.
He has an elegant and noble tone, and loves to brew up the conspiracy to rule the universe while drinking and drinking. As a result, he is naturally comfortable with the experience of hosting banquets.
Guests who can come to the banquet, regardless of whether they have a formal invitation or not, should at least have a certain degree of confidence in their social status. However, most of them have to come from the front pier, which is where the tree roots of the "White Tree Palace" are located.
You can only enter after getting off the ship and passing the security check at the door. Those like Yu Lian and Mr. Qi who are allowed to disembark from the "Tree Yap" private yacht dock in White Tree Palace and directly enter the banquet hall are naturally the elite among the elite.
I dare not say anything else, but this kind of person is naturally quite well-informed.
This is probably why Yu Lian was saluted by everyone as soon as he got off the boat.
It’s still the same saying, “This is what a man should do”!
What's the saying? Oh, by the way, men will remain young until they die! The corollary is that men will have chuunibyou until they die. If you don't even know how to enjoy yourself when faced with the enemy's threats, you will definitely
Not a qualified chuunibyou.
Then, Yu Lian adjusted his expression and posture, and put his arms around Mr. Qi's shoulders. The two guys, who were almost a hundred years old together, used a gait that no one among the well-dressed dignitaries present could imitate.
, swaggering through the entrance hall.
Judging from their steps, of course they didn't look like they were attending a noble drinking party, but more like two greasy uncles who had finished drinking beer at a barbecue night.
"Do you think among these pretentious nobles, are there still people as unrestrained and unrestrained as us?" Yu Lian asked Mr. Qi.
Mr. Qi shook his head and said: "If you really care about the opinions of people around you, then these four words must have no connection."
Yu Lian was slightly startled, feeling that he had never expected to be educated here, so he said helplessly: "Well, now this is..."
"Because it's the same every time I'm invited to a banquet. My own comfort is the most important thing," he said in a matter-of-fact tone.
This is the realm. Yu Lian thought, if the spirit of the universe gives this gentleman the factor of a psyker, there will be at least one more high-level saint in the galaxy.
"However, in terms of banquet etiquette, what I did is worthy of being disqualified. But so what? The background of this world is actually very realist. Whether it is disrespectful or uninhibited has never been because of other people.
It only depends on your own status. This is what I want to tell you."
Yu Lian said that he really understood it, so he immediately grinned and continued to walk with Mr. Qi along the domed traffic bridge towards the side door of the hall in the distance. However, when he was about to enter the hall, Yu Lian
Lian's sight suddenly caught the yacht that had just been parked at a berth next to it.
The door of the yacht opened. A pair of well-dressed young men and women, supporting an older nobleman, slowly walked out of the door.
However, the fact that the traffic boat can park at a berth so close to the door shows that these people have a very high status. At least, they should have a higher status than Mr. Biqi, the community ambassador. However, there is a saying that this does not mean
It’s not that the organizer was rude and deliberately embarrassed Mr. Qi, a great writer in the universe, but it was determined by the empire’s cumbersome palace regulations and etiquette system.
The old nobleman was unremarkable, he could be regarded as a high-class nobleman who can be seen everywhere here. However, the young man and woman were a bit interesting.
The woman should be in her early twenties. Although an upright woman is in her best years, she is wearing an overly elegant and old-fashioned dress. Her fair face has a pitiful and delicate temperament, and her eyes seem a little numb. So, then,
The pair of silver eyes that were supposed to be very charming suddenly turned into the color of embers.
If we use today's terms, it is a mourning, and the mourning is almost solidified.
Yu Lian suspected that if she hadn't come to attend someone else's banquet, the girl might actually show up in black mourning clothes.
...However, the person who can lose such a sense of existence should be a psyker.
As for the young man, he was about three or four years older than the woman, with a strong physique, a powerful temperament, and a majestic air. Yu Lian could feel that the vitality in the other man was far more surging than ordinary people, and he was also a psychic.
Yu Lian could tell that the outlines and eyebrows of the two people were somewhat similar, so they were more likely to be siblings.
If you are born into a noble family and are a psyker, you will most likely be an astral knight.
There is a saying that Yu Lian had been exposed to this kind of "elite monster" until he wanted to vomit in his previous life, but he only saw it once in his life, so he couldn't help but take another look.
"That is?"
Yu Lian just asked casually, but Mr. Qi also looked at the other party seriously, seemed a little confused, and then glanced at the coat of arms of the yacht, his eyes suddenly became a little weird, and he patted Yu Lian
Shoulder: "Well, it should be Duke Mogash's house."
Yu Lian did not expect Mr. Qi to have such insight into heraldry, but thinking about it again, it seems not surprising. After all, he often learns foreign languages with a group of beautiful aristocratic aunts, so it is not surprising to understand heraldry.
"What kind of look do you have? After all, I am an ambassador. If I don't even understand these things, wouldn't I be a salary thief who wastes people's tax money?" Mr. Qi said with a smile: "In addition, occasionally study the heraldry of the empire.
It's also pretty good. If nothing else, at least their heraldry design still has a very good sense of modern craftsmanship and aesthetics."
At this point, Mr. Qi paused again, sighed again, and lowered his voice: "This is a banquet held by others after all. You can't be impulsive for a while. The overall situation is more important, do you understand?"
So what do I need to understand?
Mr. Qi looked at the old nobleman again and said: "The contemporary Duke of Mergash is named Osenro IV. After retiring from the position of Privy Councilor three years ago, he has been in his own territory.
Go into seclusion."
Yu Lian said "Oh", but didn't understand what this had to do with him.
Mr. Qi couldn't help but glare at Yu Lian, and then said: "His granddaughter, Miss Xia Luo, married two generations of Marquis Odegaard respectively."
"You really know how to play! But this is also the basic behavior of the imperial nobles... Uh, but this Marquis of Odegaard, I seem to have heard of it somewhere."
Yu Lian blinked, and finally, under Mr. Qi's disdainful gaze, he dug out a long-unused message from a certain groove in the cerebral cortex: "Is the Odegaard you are talking about the same Odegaard?"
"Yes, that's the one you hacked to death in the Far Shore Nebula." Mr. Qi nodded.
"You can't talk nonsense. Our country is only suppressing bandits in the Nebula on the far coast and has never had any conflict with the empire. Neither have they. I don't even know a noble figure like the Marquis of Odegaard!" Yu Lian explained seriously.
.
At this time, the trio from Duke Mogash's family over there finally discovered Yu Lian.
They must have recognized their big enemy, and their steps obviously paused. Of course, they just took one more look and left.
Well, I acted very calmly, but because I was too calm, it was a bit deliberate.
Yu Lian and Mr. Qi looked at each other, raised their hands to express helplessness, and continued to move forward. But before they had taken a few steps, Yu Lian felt the sound of rapid footsteps behind them.
Since they were in such a hurry, as a polite and good young man of the new era, he naturally had to make things easier for others. Yu Lian took Mr. Qi to the side and made way for him.
However, at this time, the footsteps had a hint of malice, and they were clearly directed at him.
What time has it been? Yu Lian was not surprised, only a sigh that was so shocked that he was speechless. He pushed Mr. Qi away a little bit, and he didn't even look back, letting the other party hit him.
The intersection of psychic fields determined the winner within a tenth of a second. With a dizzying sound, a figure flew back.
"Ah, what happened?" Mr. Qi finally reacted, and immediately became energetic: "Oh, it turns out that the real battle between psykers is so... um, refreshing? I thought the Galaxy Martial Arts Conference
It's normal to see lightning, thunder, wind and thunder!"
No, actually both are normal, it depends on the situation at that time.
Yu Lian turned around and saw a Cat Man, about two meters tall and wearing a formal dress, lying on the ground five meters away from him, unable to get up for a long time.
The small commotion just now also attracted more attention and a small exclamation from the surrounding people.
However, that's all.
It seems that the imperial nobles are already very familiar with this kind of scene.
"Isn't this too childish?" Yu Lian asked helplessly.
"Indeed, and it's extremely embarrassing." The person who answered him was a young human noble, about thirty years old. He was of medium height, with gray eyes and short bronze hair, and a straight face.
Very serious, even a bit gloomy. The whole person feels like a dagger hidden in his arms.
"Get up! It's embarrassing!" The noble young man shouted in a low voice to the Cathay man who was still lying on the ground, and then bowed slightly in the direction of Mr. Qi: "I am very sorry, Mr. Qi, for letting you see such a thing.
A shameful scene.”
Shouldn't you apologize to me? Yu Lian thought.
Mr. Qi waved his hand, but then stabbed: "No need, you are the one who is embarrassed, so you have to apologize to yourself."
The human nobleman said nothing and bowed again. Without looking at Yu Lian again, he quickly left with the Cathay man who got up and rubbed his waist.
"That Ketai man is Lulun Orangmane, a direct descendant of the Ketai royal family. He is currently studying at the Imperial Royal Navy University. Among the children of the Ketai royal family, he has the best relationship with Charon Orangmane. As for the imperial noble
, is Count Sarun, a member of the Astral Knights, and a commodore of the Imperial Navy. He is now serving as a military advisor to the Cathay Navy. He has a very good relationship with the late Lieutenant General Orson Blackfin, the former chief of operations of the Kingdom of Cathay.
"
"..."
"Don't tell me you've forgotten who Charon Mane and Orson Blackfin are?"
"...How is that possible! I haven't reached the age of Alzheimer's disease yet. Aren't they the two people who died in the Battle of the West End System?"
"You really forgot, right? Otherwise, why did you think about it for at least half a minute?"
Yu Lian thought what could be done. I had killed so many people, how could I remember them all?
In any case, Yu Lian finally has a realistic concept of the fact that his enemies are spread all over the emperor.
But, so what?
It’s still the same sentence, “This is what a real man should do!”
