"Hahaha, they are all from my own family, so don't be polite to me."

"..."

Finally they came to the scene of the dinner party, which was held in the palace hall of Kainos.

Although the Kainos Kingdom is only a small country along the coast, the palace here does not look simple. Unlike the golden Knox Golden Palace, the decoration and decoration of the Kainos Palace are full of elegance.

Although the reliefs on the wall are slightly mottled, this sense of history brings a classical charm. The ceiling painting above the head is obviously made by a famous teacher, and even the stone sculptures around are also selected from the highest grade. carved from marble.

Of course, besides these, there are too many places that can be praised. To be honest, he prefers this elegant Qenos Palace to the flamboyant Knox Palace.

Staying here is like visiting a museum... The premise is to ignore the pile of colorful carriages outside the palace. Don't these nobles know that light pollution is also a kind of pollution!

"Come on everyone! This is my brother-in-law!"

While Du Wei was still admiring the decoration of the hall, a group of Kainos nobles surrounded him under the call of the foolish prince.

It was already two hours before Du Wei got rid of the group of Kainos nobles and kicked that idiot prince away.

"Phew, I'm really exhausted. I didn't feel so tired when I ran to the Elven Kingdom last time."

Most of the high elves are calm and ascetic, and their interaction at the banquet is only a few words, and more is to gather together to quietly appreciate a certain work of art.

If the banquet was held in Knox, he would be even more relaxed than in the kingdom of elves. This is because he is not only the son of the grand duke, but also has the blood of the royal family. It can be said that his status is among the upper nobles most apex.

In the orthodox aristocratic etiquette, the lower-ranking nobles cannot take the initiative to contact the upper-ranking nobles during the banquet. Only the upper-ranking nobles can take the initiative to contact the lower-ranking nobles, otherwise it will be regarded as a disrespectful behavior beyond their status.

Although Du Wei disliked the cumbersome etiquette in the aristocratic class, he had to say that some rules did make him feel a lot easier.

It’s just that when he came to Kainos this time, besides being the leader of the students, he also shouldered the identity of a diplomatic envoy, and the job of a diplomatic envoy is to deal with this group of foreign nobles and officials. For them, this is one of the few The great opportunity to get in touch with Knox's high-ranking nobles must not be let go.

"Thank you for your hard work." Flo handed him a glass of cold juice.

Du Wei took the juice and drank it all in one go.

"I'm saved, thank you so much. I'm so thirsty that I'm going to die. Thank you for your hard work."

Even though he was surrounded by a group of nobles just now, the maid and guard still followed him closely and did not lose his guard.

"This is what I should do." Flo saluted gracefully.

"I should really ask my Tiehua to learn more from you. After all, why didn't you see Princess Hill? Something happened to her, right?"

This reception dinner was not only for him, the students who came with him to teach off-campus were also on the reception list, but Du Wei only saw Mu Lai and other acquaintances, and Princess Hill, who is the princess of the kingdom, did not appear at the banquet .

"Please rest assured that His Highness is much safer in the Kingdom of Kainos than in the Knox Empire. In addition to your bodyguard Iron Flower, there are also our people who are also secretly guarding His Highness's safety, so I think His Highness should be more It just took some time to prepare."

"Preparation? What preparation?"

Flo covered her mouth and smiled lightly.

"Master Du Wei is very good at pleasing girls, but sometimes he doesn't understand girls' hearts."

"Huh?" Du Wei scratched his hair.

"After all, I'm a man."

Flo burst out laughing, but she still didn't explain where Princess Hill was going, but she said so, so there should be no need for him to worry about Princess Hill.

Goo ─ ─ ─ ─

At this moment, his stomach suddenly started to growl, and it occurred to him that Du Wei was greeting those Kainos nobles just now, and he hadn't even eaten half of the meal at the dinner party.

Du Wei touched his stomach and said.

"Let's fill up our stomachs first. Does Kainos have any special dishes?"

"Kenos is close to the sea, so our special dishes are naturally related to the sea."

However, it was not Flo who answered his words, but...

Du Wei said in amazement, "Your Majesty the Queen!?"

"Special Envoy Duvey, does this dinner meet your wishes?"

Queen Kynos is wearing an elegant black evening dress tonight, and there is no sign that the years have left any traces on her body.

Realizing that he was a little rude to stare at the queen, Du Wei, who came back to his senses, hurried forward and leaned over to hold the queen's hand for a kiss.

"Thanks to Her Majesty the Queen for taking the trouble to hold a dinner for us. Everyone is very happy."

"As long as the special envoy likes it, if there is any bad hospitality, please feel free to tell the officials on the scene, and they will deal with it immediately."

"Okay." Du Wei asked tentatively after thinking about it.

"Will His Majesty the King also attend the dinner?"

Generally speaking, it is very impolite for a foreign nobleman to ask the whereabouts of the local king, but as a diplomatic envoy representing the Knox Empire, and he is also a member of the royal family, he is not the same as a small country like Kainos. There is nothing wrong with kings being equal.

"About this..." For some reason, the queen seemed hesitant to speak.

Although Flo and the others believed that the king's disappearance had nothing to do with the queen, Du Wei always believed that there must be a connection between the two. Maybe she was able to pass the lie test because she played some kind of trick.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, it is temporarily inconvenient for him to attend public occasions recently." The Queen replied.

"What's the reason? If it's an illness, I may have a way to heal it."

Du Wei thought that the Queen might have expected that he might have learned about the disappearance of King Kenos from Princess Hill, but he continued to ask, just to see if he could get some different clues from the Queen.

As a result, the queen hadn't spoken yet, but a heavy news came from the entrance of the hall.

"The king is coming."

The announcement made by the attendant at the entrance of the hall made the lively dinner party cool down in an instant.

The people on the Keenos side looked at each other, as if they were confused by their own king who hadn't shown up for a long time but suddenly appeared.

And when their Knox people saw the Kainos who were still warmly receiving them, they suddenly fell silent, and all the students couldn't figure out what was going on.

But among the crowd present, Du Wei found that there was one person who was the most astonished by the king's sudden appearance, and that person was Queen Kainos standing in front of him.

"This...how is it possible." The queen murmured.

Du Wei saw shock and... fear on her face?

fear?Why should Queen Kynos be afraid of her husband?If King Qenos was a tyrant who would do violence to his people and his family, he could understand being afraid of him.

However, according to Du Wei's past survey data, although King Kenos could not be called a good monarch, he would definitely not be a tyrant and a domestic violence person. Most of the world's evaluations of him were just a mediocre king.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter? Seeing that your face is pale, do you need me to call someone for you?" Du Wei said while observing the queen's face.

"No... I'm fine." The recovered queen smiled at him, but that smile looked a bit forced, and no one who saw her would believe that she was fine.

"In that case, I want to go over and say hello to His Majesty the King, can I trouble Her Majesty the Queen?"

The implication is that she hopes that she will lead him to see the king. Du Wei wants to see what is going on between the king and the queen.

However, the queen quickly refused.

"Sorry, I still have some things to do, so I'll take my leave first."

The queen left as soon as she said she would leave, but just as the queen passed by him, a note was suddenly stuffed into his hand.

Although Du Wei froze for a moment, he still stuffed the note into his pocket calmly.

After watching the queen leave, Du Wei looked at Flo beside him.

"Flo, didn't you say that the king is missing? Why did you suddenly come out to the dinner now?" Du Wei whispered.

"I'm very sorry. I haven't received any information from the sect. It's very likely that the sect doesn't know that the king will be present at the banquet today."

Du Wei thought about it.

"Could this king be a fake?"

In this world where magic exists, it is not difficult to forge identities. From disguise to illusion, even the invasion of the body is possible.

"It's not impossible, so I will ask Mr. Du Wei not to stay too far away from me later."

"You think the king will be against me?"

Flo shook her head.

"No, unless he's crazy, it's impossible to say anything against you. Just to be on the safe side, I hope you don't stay too far away from me. After all, I'm your guard, right?"

Du Wei laughed.

"I understand, but before meeting the king, I want to see what is written on the note that the queen gave me."

Du Wei led Flo away from the banquet scene temporarily by using urine escape. After confirming that there was no one around, he took out a note from his pocket, but seeing it made her feel embarrassed.

When Flo saw me looking weird, she asked immediately.

"Master Michelle, what is written on it?"

"Uh...the queen asked me to have a private meeting."

"The Queen wants to have a meeting with Lord Du Wei?"

Flo thought for a while and replied.

"It's not surprising. Maybe she is trying to win over Mr. Du Wei, so where is the time?"

"Well... the location is in my room, the time is late tonight, and this is a private visit with a hidden identity."

"...private visit?"

After hearing what Flo said, she was stunned. In order to confirm that what he said was correct, she took the note and read it carefully. It was really the same as what Du Wei said.

Du Wei came to a reliable conclusion after thinking about it.

"Then what... You think Queen Kainos won't take a fancy to me, this little fresh meat?"

"...What does little fresh meat mean?"

Du Wei showed his white teeth and posed in a bodybuilding pose.

"It means to take a fancy to my youthful body!"

"..."

"Hey! You're making fun of me!"

Fula is good at everything, but she is too rigid. At this moment, he misses Tiehua very much.

"No, I'm very sorry, I don't know how to react."

"A maid who can't complain is not a good maid."

Du Wei sighed and waved his hands.

"But it can't be all your fault. After all, you are over a hundred years old. It is understandable that there is a generation gap with young people like us."

"Up, over a hundred years old!?"

Flo widened her eyes and defended.

"Master Du Wei, I'm not yet thirty!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? You have obviously lived for hundreds of years."

Flo said anxiously.

"It can't be counted like this, I was sealed in the sarcophagus at that time!"

"Oh, if you don't count the sealing period, how old are you now?"

"...29." Flo was silent for a minute or two before replying.

"What, that's only a few years younger than my mother. At most, it's just a change from an old grandmother to an aunt. Isn't it the same generation... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh !"

...

After squabbling with Flo, they returned to the dinner party, and an attendant greeted them as soon as they appeared.

"My lord special envoy, His Majesty the King would like to invite you to the box to have a talk."

"...I see, lead the way."

Originally, Du Wei had planned to meet with the king. After all, he was also a special envoy, so diplomatic work naturally couldn't be perfunctory.

...But I'm so hungry, I haven't eaten anything yet at the dinner party, remembering that the queen said just now that the specialty food here is seafood, my saliva can't help but flow down.

I don't know how long it will take to meet the king. If he is a chatterbox, he won't have to eat the exquisite dishes prepared at the dinner.

"That's it." The attendant opened the door of the box and signaled him to go in.

However, Flo, who was following behind, was blocked.
