What made Princess Louise angry was that after the intense "first meeting" with Duwei that morning, the hateful Tulip Duke actually starved himself for the whole day!
He can actually do it? My dear princess, how dare he not give me food?!
In the next two days, Du Wei showed no intention of coming to apologize, so it goes without saying that Princess Louise was angry.
But two nights later, a small banquet was actually held in the castle. When Princess Louise was invited, her first reaction was to close the door and drive out the servant who came to deliver the invitation.
But after a second, she nodded in agreement and expressed her willingness to participate in the banquet.
For no other reason, just because this banquet is a "farewell banquet". That's what it says in name: Her Royal Highness the Princess and Miss Dai Li are about to leave Loulan City. As the host, Lord Tulip Duke has set up a banquet to bid farewell to the two of them tonight.
Distinguished guest.
At least... I can leave this damn place right away! Looking back at the beginning, Louise felt that she was really dizzy, and that's why she thought of running to the northwest to see the Tulip Duke!
Therefore, Princess Louise suppressed her anger, dressed herself up carefully, and attended the dinner with a smile. At least, she would be able to leave this place and return to the Imperial Capital immediately! Even if she returned to the Imperial Capital, there would still be a lot of troubles.
Waiting for yourself, but it is much better than being here!!
Therefore, when Princess Louise appeared at the dinner radiantly, the beautiful princess immediately became the focus of everyone's attention again.
The princess’s elegant manners and royal temperament made her the most shining star of the night.
However, compared with the extremely beautiful princess, another heavyweight who also attended tonight's banquet: the famous beauty in the southern part of the empire, Miss Delly, who is about to become the princess of the empire, looks much gloomier.
According to legend, Miss Delly should also be an extremely beautiful girl, and in the aristocratic circle of the empire, Miss Angel, the younger sister of the Marquis of Liszt of the northern Liszt family, and Delly, who was born in a southern aristocratic family, have always been
The young lady is ranked as the two most beautiful flowers of the younger generation in the imperial aristocratic circle.
Moreover, when Miss Delly attended a banquet when she first arrived in the city, everyone was fascinated by the future princess's stunning charm.
However, Miss Delly looked haggard tonight, and her skin was no longer as fair and rosy as before, and even looked a little sallow. Sitting there, her eyes were a little dull, as if she was distracted.
In her empty eyes, where is there any trace of the past energy? Compared with the radiant Princess Louise beside her, Miss Delly looks more like a sculpture... and one of inferior quality.
However, no one showed any surprise at Miss Dai Li's appearance. After all, news came out a few days ago that Miss Dai Li unfortunately contracted an illness in Loulan City.
As a patient, you are recovering from a serious illness, so naturally you will not be in good spirits.
No one will know what kind of torture this noble future princess has suffered these days...
After being coerced by Du Wei to write the letter, Delly blamed herself for two whole days. She would almost be awakened by nightmares even in her dreams, and every nightmare had the same content: the letter was made public, and she was ruined.
Her title of princess was abolished, and her brother, the legion commander, was deposed and exiled. The family's hope of revitalization was cut off...
The whole day of fear kept Delly awake at night and unable to eat. Although Du Wei "got" her, he did not give her any more physical torture and asked her to move out of the dungeon and live in a
The guest room in the castle.
However, the huge mental pressure almost made Delly collapse. She deeply understood that she was completely defeated in front of the Tulip Duke, and she would not even have a chance to stand up in the future! As long as Du Wei
If you still hold that letter in your hand all day long, then you must maintain a respectful attitude towards him from now on.
As for the formulas of those secret weapons... Delly almost feels hatred now. Unfortunately, it is not so easy to forget the things she remembers.
When the music played, all the guests stood on both sides, bowing slightly.
Then, Du Wei, dressed in a grand and elegant outfit, slowly walked to the front, bowed his head to Princess Louise who was standing in front of the stage, stretched out his hand, and made an inviting gesture.
In terms of status and dignity, according to tradition, the first dance at tonight's banquet will be danced by Duwei and Princess Louise.
Although Du Wei is very bad at this kind of court dance, he is finally not as immature as when he danced with Mrs. Liszt at his coming-of-age ceremony.
He gently held the princess's arm, both of them had smiles on their faces, and there was no hint that they were enemies just two days ago.
However, although they maintained a polite smile on the surface, when the two of them walked off the dance floor, in full view of the public, with her back to everyone, the princess lowered her voice and said coldly: "Your Majesty, Duke Tulip, I didn't expect you.
You're actually wearing an evening dress today... Humph! I thought you liked running around barefoot and bare-chested! Isn't that how you broke into my room two days ago!"
Du Wei was not angry when he heard this. He just raised his eyebrows, smiled faintly, and whispered: "Your Highness, please pay attention to your words. If such words spread, it will become a scandal."
Louise seemed to blush, but she quickly covered it up.
Later, when Du Wei put one of his arms around the princess's waist, the princess just snorted in dissatisfaction.
Amidst the music, the two danced a gentle court dance, with one hand behind their backs and the other holding each other.
As a royal princess, Louise has naturally been very skilled in this kind of court dance since she was a child. But Du Wei looked a little jerky. This became one of the reasons why Louise satirized Du Wei.
"Your Majesty, I didn't expect that your dancing skills are so bad. My eight-year-old nephew, Prince Charles, can dance better than you."
"God. Don't you know you have to follow the beat?"
"You almost stepped on my foot! I'm really worried about the lady you dance with in the future."
"That's ridiculous... Lord Duke, are all magicians monsters who don't understand the world? Or are you born with no sensitivity to music?"
After saying a few words, Du Wei remained silent and had no intention of fighting back. He just smiled, which made Princess Louise feel uneasy. When did this guy become so easy to talk to? In his room the morning before yesterday.
Isn't it him who scares himself with a whip and starves himself for a day?
Looking at the confused expression of the princess, Du Wei smiled slightly and finally said: "Your Highness, are you still angry in your heart? If you are not angry, you may as well continue talking, I will just listen."
"You...what are you planning?" Louise looked at Duwei uneasily.
"No, nothing." Du Wei smiled, followed the rhythm of the music, and made a spinning movement with his arms around the princess. Then he whispered: "I apologize to you for my behavior the day before yesterday."
"What did you say?" Louise almost thought she heard wrong.
"Yes, no matter what, being too rude to a lady always goes against my principles as a human being. Besides, I shouldn't starve you all day." Du Wei chuckled. But what he said immediately after that
His tone changed: "But if it had to happen again, I might still do it."
"Why?!" Princess Louise said bitterly: "It seems that you are not sincere in apologizing!"
"No! My sincerity has been expressed." Duwei smiled kindly. But the look in his eyes made Princess Louise look at her with disdain: "I have to tell you. You shouldn't hit my people! I
People who have not made any mistakes, I will not tolerate others bullying them, not any of them! Please remember this in the future."
The princess was speechless. She did regret it afterwards. After all, she whipped people randomly... She, Louise, was not that kind of unreasonable playboy. She was actually ignored by Du Wei that day.
Indifference made him angry.
"And..." Du Wei's eyes deliberately glanced at Miss Delly sitting there, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Because of Miss Delly's matter, I think the two of us are not actually on a hostile stance at all.
.Furthermore, thank you for your cooperation in what happened before. I think let this matter pass as it is. You were just used."
Princess Louise glanced at the haggard Delly, and suddenly felt nervous, and said in a trembling voice: "You, what did you do to Delly? Did you hurt her... you..."
"Relax! Relax!" Duwei turned Louise around. Under the music, the two danced gracefully, and no one else could see anything wrong. Duwei got a little closer to Louise and whispered:
"Don't worry, I didn't hurt her... let alone violate her! Don't worry, her hymen is still intact! I have no interest in this kind of woman at all. However, I successfully persuaded her and then convinced us
Your Royal Highness, please don’t be my enemy in the future, that’s all.”
"Humph, I don't believe you are so eloquent!" Louise sounded a little dissatisfied.
"You are wrong again, Your Highness." At this time, the music finally ended, but Du Wei's last words were: "When I persuade others, I never use words, I use actions."
After saying that, Du Wei winked at her and let go of the princess's waist.
The first song ended, and the second song was Du Wei dancing with Miss Delly, who ranked second among the female guests.
However, Miss Delly's performance tonight was really below the standard.
Princess Louise, who was watching with cold eyes, clearly captured one detail: when Du Wei held Miss Delly's hand, Delly made a subconscious dodge movement, her eyes were full of fear and horror, as if she was extremely afraid of Du Wei's
Look.
During the subsequent dance, Delly's body was obviously very stiff, and she even accidentally stepped on Du Wei's foot during the dance. As a result, the majestic future princess immediately turned pale with fright, and hurriedly shouted at Du Wei.
Her voice apologized and her words were extremely panicked, as if she was afraid that Du Wei would punish her for such a small thing.
With a lot of suspicion, Duwei brought General Longbottom to Princess Louise halfway through the dinner.
Tonight's General 250 is wearing a straight military uniform, straight clothes, brightly polished leather boots, and a ceremonial sword at his waist, all of which highlight his military masculinity.
Although General Longbottom has gained some weight, he still looks extremely strong. More importantly, after being carefully dressed, this general still looks outstanding.
In fact, Longbottom's appearance is not that sloppy look with a big beard. Although he has gained some weight, he is still very strong, but his facial features are still pretty. If he loses one third of his weight, he might also be a pretty one.
man.
Of course, the premise is that he doesn't speak. After half a lifetime in the military, he is used to leading troops, and he has long been accustomed to the foul-mouthed way of speaking.
"Your Highness, this is the number one general of our Tulip family, General Longbottom." Du Wei introduced with a smile: "Tomorrow morning, he will personally escort you and your party back to the imperial capital."
Longbottom immediately responded and bowed, stretched out his hand with white gloves, took the little hand handed over by the princess, brought it to his mouth and kissed it in a standard, impeccable hand kiss.
"It is my honor to escort His Highness." Longbottom's voice became gentler.
Du Wei was relieved that this guy seemed to be really obedient and didn't deliberately cause any trouble.
