Chapter 4 chapter4 luxury banquet

[Terrence Heyman Aldrett was suspected of inciting civilians to treason, the Queen's judgment is as follows - deprive Terrence of the duke title and Aldrett's surname, and assign Deke Dess. ] At that moment, the whole world was dark.

Terrence narrowed his eyes and stared at the tall stands, where the Queen in a long white dress was sitting, and Angus was standing beside her.He was also wearing a white dress, and the straight clothes were inlaid with all kinds of precious gemstones. With his blond hair and fair skin, he looked so beautiful that his whole body was shining.

Angus had never worn such extravagant clothes, even though Terrence always said he dressed too modestly.At that time, how did the other party answer?

——I'm used to hard work, and I'm not used to dressing too gorgeously.

Now that Terrence has been kicked out of the Aldelete family, Angus, as the new patriarch, has immediately gotten used to the extravagant aristocratic style.

Terrence thought a little dazedly, and then moved his gaze to Angus's side.His childhood sweetheart friend was standing beside him with an attentive smile on his face.He hadn't seen his only friend since Terrence was put in prison.

Under the scorching sun, Terrence's head became more and more dizzy.Obviously the place where he was was far brighter than the people sitting in the shade with umbrellas in the distance, but Terrence felt that he was about to be submerged in the black swamp.

He struggled lightly, and the shackles on his hands made a crisp sound.

Angus seemed to have heard the small voice, and turned his head.With cunning and contempt in that gaze, it pierced Terrence's heart fiercely.

So he embarked on a journey to the crime capital.The rugged roads of thousands of miles depended on Terrence to walk step by step—as a body to be punished, how could he be qualified to ride in a carriage.

The hard life along the road has completely ruined the body of the young man who doesn't know what toil is.

By the time Terrence entered Dykeades, he had become decadent and lifeless, like a ghost that had just crawled out of a coffin.But the heavy labor and the bullying of other criminals did not give Terrence a chance to breathe.

—He has fallen into the abyss, and there will never be a day out.

In just three years, Terrence had already seen the black wings of the god of death gliding gently over his head, and the shadow of death slowly but surely enveloped him.Angus' method is too beautiful, he has long known that a foolish noble young master like Terrence, who doesn't know the world, will never have any chance of making a comeback even if he doesn't kill the grass and roots.Pleading with the queen to save Terrence from death not only gave him a reputation of gentleness and kindness, but also made Terrence suffer the pain of losing his dignity and being as weak as an ant.

Terrence had figured everything out a long time ago, but he was like a dry stump without consciousness, he could only lie down on the sour mattress and watch himself die cowardly and helplessly.

He vowed never to taste the taste of despair that made people crazy.But--

【Brother Thales, you really shouldn’t have caused so many people to suffer because of your own selfish desires.Is the throne of the king so important?You have committed so many unforgivable sins for this. 】"ah……"

Terrence's eyes widened, his chest heaving violently.

He took a deep breath and sat up, the tears stored in his eyes rolled out of his eyes due to gravity and flowed onto his dry lips.

Terrence licked the corner of his lips and tasted the bitter taste.

It is always said that when a person crosses the river of Hades after death, he will forget all the past events in his lifetime because of the washing of the river, and welcome a new life like a blank sheet of paper.Terrence felt that this was probably the wisest decision made by the gods, bar none.

A soul carrying too many memories is like a traveler carrying too much luggage, the weight will crush a person's spine.

But Terrence didn't even have the qualifications to complain about it.Because if he lost even the memory and experience of his previous life, he might not have the chance to stand against Angus at all-this is not out of self-deprecation, but an unpleasant fact that must be admitted.

The repeated life is the only treasure given to him by fate. Not only can he not discard it like a shoe, but he must always cherish it and recall it all the time.

If a person's life is too bitter, even pain can be used as happiness.

Terrence has never been a lucky person, and he no longer expects to be favored by God.If his rebirth again and again is just to add a brilliance to Angus Allen's life, then he doesn't mind doing his best to make the other person's life miserable and difficult.

If he was destined to die in front of Angus, then this time he would also tear him down to hell.

——He will give Angus a more ragged and sinister life than the one before.

The dark emotions constantly rolling in the green eyes are brewing the coming storm, but Terrence's face is still cold, he must be smart enough and sober enough.

When Adam Smith walked in, Terrence didn't know how long he had been sitting on the bed hugging the quilt.

The young butler didn't know the little master's complicated thoughts. He put strong black tea and exquisite snacks in front of the bed, and said good morning to Terrence: "I woke up very early today, master. It's for the banquet tonight Are you nervous?"

Terrence hid the depression on his face, picked up the beautiful bone china teacup and drank it down: "I am no longer the little one I used to be."

No matter how mature the mind is, Terrence, who looks like a ten-year-old child, probably can't help but make people smile knowingly when he says such words, but Adam, who is strict in nature, agrees with the little master's words: " That's right, the young master has become a nobleman who can stand alone."

Terrence raised his eyebrows. He put the cup on the tray and jumped off the bed.

"Master? Your breakfast?"

"I don't have much appetite. I want to take a bath more than eat."

Because of the nightmare at night, he broke out in a cold sweat, and the sticky feeling made Terrence extremely uncomfortable.

Long before the little duke inherited the title, Adam had already experienced the casualness of Terrence's saying that the wind is the rain—after all, no matter how soft and cute the young nobleman is, he always has a pampered willfulness—he Signaling the maids behind to prepare the bathroom, he took a step forward and hugged Terrence: "Even so, the young master shouldn't step on the ground barefoot. I will send breakfast to the bathroom later, I hope you will consider yourself Eat as much as you want for your body."

"Yes, yes—" Terrence yawned indifferently. "Speaking of which, why didn't you see Borg today?"

"Because there is a flaw in the preparation of the banquet, Mr. Deacon is dealing with it."

"Oh." Terrence nodded, "Nothing will go wrong tonight, right?"

"Please rest assured, young master, tonight must belong to Aldrette." Adam thought for a while and added. "So, young master, it's enough for you to just hold your chest up and look up, there's nothing for you to worry about."

Terrence looked up at the butler with a solemn expression, shaking his head and laughing at his beating around the bush to appease him.

On this bright spring morning, the subject of the Aldelete dinner was being brought up by many.

Duke Pacino's Palace.

Lionel Pacino - the only remaining Duke after Terrence is 46 years old.He has the famous emerald eyes of the royal family and dark brown curly hair mixed with silver threads.His features were deep and wrinkled and sinister.

At the moment, he was sitting in front of the mahogany table in the study, rubbing a gold-plated invitation card in his hand. Below the invitation card was the goshawk print of the Aldrett family.

The duke's son, Xavier Pacino, was standing by his father's right hand. He noticed his father's obscure expression, and couldn't help but said, "It's just a little brat who doesn't know how to do it. Look at him in front of everyone two days ago. The performance in front of the nobles and ministers, hmph, is nothing to be afraid of. If you don’t participate in this kind of banquet, no one will dare to say anything.”

Lionel shook his head: "You are still too young and energetic, Xavier. Even if you look down on others, you should maintain your proper demeanor. Bullying a young child who lost his parents is against the Pacino family style."

"So……"

"Of course we're going to see your lovely little cousin."

Lionel took the invitation and knocked on the edge of the table, showing a meaningful smile.

And in Earl Winslet's mansion, Mr. Earl is also giving instructions to his youngest son.

"Ed, now that His Excellency the Young Duke of Aldrette is honorable, you should show intimacy and friendliness to him. He will be your precious helper, understand?"

"Of course, father, as I have always done, I will never let you down."

Edward Winslet bowed his head respectfully.

Earl Winslet has three sons, Edward, as the youngest of them, is deeply loved by the old earl, but according to the tradition of the nobility, after his death, his youngest son can hardly even get the title of baron besides a small inheritance. get.But he didn't want his beloved child to go to the dangerous battlefield to gain meritorious service, so he managed to send Edward to the young only son of the Aldret family - the support of the great nobles was the shortest shortcut to success.But now it seems that this decision couldn't be more wise. A ten-year-old duke is unique among the nobles of the Shannenpail Empire.

Sophisticated, refined, luxurious, extravagant.

The surprise that Aldelete's dinner brought to the nobles of the imperial capital is indescribable.

Numerous alchemy products for lighting and decoration are filled around the hall, the delicate and realistic starry dome above the head, the candles floating in mid-air with golden wings, the glowing fountains spewing on the walls...

The women felt as if they had been in fairyland, and the men saw the huge wealth of the Aldelete family.

This secret display of strength can indeed arm a child to the hair, and the expressions of some lower-ranking nobles have already brought awe, but the empty wealth can't really make the little duke get the real respect from the upper class. Respect, the next step will depend on his own performance.

Terrence wore a beige short dress today, with black gemstones and silk threads on the shoulders to outline an eagle about to fly. Solemn.

He led Borg down the stairs, and immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the noisy hall suddenly fell silent.

The newly-promoted young duke does not abide by the noble manners like his peers but appears to be duty-bound and stiff.Terrence's attitude of strolling in the courtyard was generous, elegant and calm, and it was difficult for people to treat him as a child just from his aura.

Many aristocratic gentlemen who have participated in the award ceremony have difficulty connecting the Lord Aldelet in front of them with the panic-stricken young man at the award ceremony a few days ago.

Terrence looked at the reactions of the people under the terrace with satisfaction, and he took the exquisite loudspeaker device from Borg: "I am very happy that all distinguished guests have been invited to this ball. This can Said that this is my first official appearance in a social occasion, and I would like to ask everyone for your advice. Next-I wish you all a happy tonight, cheers!"

He shook the clear wine glass in his hand, and got the echoes of the nobles downstairs——Terrence's performance today is obviously enough.

Edward Winslet watched Terrence surrounded by layers of crowd with complicated eyes, and quietly clenched his fists.

As the son of the earl, although he always followed Terrence's back to please him, he didn't really think highly of the heir to the duke.

Terrence's stupidity and cowardice have long been clearly felt by Edward, but Edward, who is also ten years old, can gain the trust of the other party while secretly contemptuous and calm, which is already clear.

Edward had already heard about Terrence's poor performance at the award ceremony. At that time, he had privately laughed at the fact that the other party was unable to get on the stage. He did not expect to see Terrence again today. Find a sense of superiority in yourself.

Will there be such a radical change after obtaining the title?As long as you get the supreme right, can you stand above everyone?

Edward, who was still a child no matter how precocious, asked himself in his heart.

At this time, Earl Winslet who was standing behind him gently pushed his shoulder.Edward raised his head and found a temporary vacancy around Terrence.
