Warlords: Rise From the Land of Doom
Chapter 226: These little vassal second sons are not worthy!
"Big Mouth Peter, do you believe it now? The Earl is willing to buy the recipe for fifty gold coins after tasting it. If such delicacies are sold, do you think it's worth a small piece of ten silver coins?"
"It's worth it!" Peter didn't argue any more.
What kind of person is the Count, even he likes to eat food, and he buys the formula without hesitation, who dares to say that such food is not worth the price?
I am afraid that even if Miss Stella made such a move, the count would not be able to convince her.
At this time, Stella also took over the second cream cake.
Miss Stella's eating appearance is incomparably ladylike, and every move is elegant and decent.
The white and slender fingers held the silver spoon and scooped a little cream, then put it to the mouth and took a sip.
Under everyone's attention, Miss Stella's expression suddenly revealed a hint of surprise.
"Sir Narrant, your cream cake is delicious, thank you for this birthday present!"
"Miss Stella! This is my honor!" Narant was slightly surprised, not expecting to hear the compliment in person.
However, it is not surprising to think that no matter how noble Stella's status is, she is still a woman, and women are naturally fond of sweets.
"Lina!" Stella called Lina again after thanking her, "You bring the servants to distribute the cream cake to all the guests present to taste!"
"Yes, miss!"
Immediately, with the cooperation of Lina and Rose, the cake was delivered to them in the eyes of all the guests looking forward to it.
Of course, there were so many people present that the cream cake they could get was not even the size of a fist.
However, none of the nobles in the field thought it was too small, because after tasting this cream cake, everyone understood why the Count had such a reaction earlier.
"Oh! This cream cake is so delicious! Can you tell your brother, Nacia, that I am willing to be his wife, and I will let my father prepare a lot of dowry!"
At the long table, a noble lady named Taffy finished eating the cream cake beautifully, and suddenly said a word without end.
"Taffy, you can't do this. I also want to be Sir Narrant's wife. You are not allowed to buy Narcia!"
"I want to be Sir Narrant's wife too, we want to play fair!"
"" Boris just rolled his eyes while listening, and immediately turned into a large lemon essence.
It took more than ten minutes to taste this cream cake. From the happy expressions of all the guests, it can be seen that this cream cake brought them an unprecedented sense of happiness.
As the cream cake is eaten, it also means that it is almost time to enter the dance party.
But at this time, everyone present encountered a problem.
That's who is Miss Stella's first dance tonight.
Originally, everyone thought that Billy's second son should be the most valuable existence in the audience.
But after everyone ate Narant's cake, they felt that the value of such a big cream cake was actually no less than that of the silver gift box.
In this way, no matter if one of them dances this first dance with Miss Stella, I am afraid that the other will also be dissatisfied!
As a result, everyone turned to Miss Stella and the count.
The Count was also thinking about it at this time. Since the rules of this birthday dinner are based on the value of the gift, he can only follow this rule, otherwise it will easily dampen the enthusiasm of other second sons.
Especially that Billy, the gift he prepared this time was considered carefully, although he had the intention to favor Narant a little, but he couldn't do it directly.
Stella, on the other hand, did not show any expression on stage. Instead, she hoped that the first dance today would not be the best, or that it would be better to dance directly with her father.
Billy looked at Narant with hatred from the audience at the moment.
In this game, he was one of the few who ate the cream cake, but was still hostile to Narant.
It was because of Narant that there was uncertainty about his chances of getting in touch with Miss Stella.
"Who do you think is fair to let Stella dance the first dance?"
"I think it should be Sir Billy! Sir Billy's gift is real, and Sir Narrant's gift is an estimate after all. Although this cream cake is delicious, it is also an estimate!"
"My Excellency, I don't agree. I think Sir Narant deserves the chance to get the first dance. After all, his gifts are more useful, and I am sure that among all the second sons, only Narant is the only one who deserves it. Sir Rand's gift is prepared by himself! After all, Andrew must have no extra money to support him this time!"
There was no decision for a while at the top, and the guests below also whispered.
"Haha! Why don't you let me and Stella dance this first dance! How can these little vassals and second sons be worthy of tulip flowers!"
At this moment, a hearty laugh came from the door of the hall.
And the tone was so loud that it immediately aroused the disgust of the small nobles.
Everyone looked towards the door of the hall.
It's just that when they saw the person speaking, the hostility in those eyes immediately dissipated.
"Hey! It turned out to be the eldest prince and the second prince!"
"They all came! This is a great honor!"
"Yeah, the two princes attended the birthday celebration at the same time, which is rarely seen in other earl families in previous years!"
"I have seen the two princes!"
At this time, walking from the entrance of the hall were two young men dressed in luxurious clothes.
One of them was in his twenties, and the other was in his early twenties.
They are the eldest and second sons of the current king of the Onyx Principality.
Many nobles who had seen the faces of the two princes stepped aside and greeted them respectfully.
"Bernard honors tulips, I have seen two princes!" At this time, the earl, who was sitting on the edge of the high platform, also walked down and gave a slight salute to the two princes to greet them~www.readwn.com~ At this time, several other counts who attended the banquet also approached and greeted each other.
"Several counts, don't be too polite!" The two princes also saluted.
Although it is the noble etiquette that the count should greet them with.
But apart from the current king, no one really dared to accept the greetings of several counts, including the two princes.
"Count Bernard, I am very sorry that we are late this time!"
"His Royal Highness doesn't have to be like this, the king's leader is more than a week away from the tulips. It is already an honor for my tulip family that you and the second prince can come!" Bernard was very polite.
"The two princes, please go to the front and take a seat!"
Immediately, the Earl led the two princes towards the front of the high platform.
"Beautiful Miss Stella, on behalf of the Glory Onyx Family, I send you my best wishes and wish you a happy birthday!"
The eldest prince followed Bernard to the high stage, and politely offered Stella a blessing and a gift at the same time.
As the gift is opened, it is a delicate jewelry necklace that is not particularly expensive.
This is also an unspoken rule for gift-giving among big nobles. Generally, birthday gifts given in the name of the family are not worth too much, in order to avoid robbing the young people of their first chance to dance.
Therefore, this jewelry necklace looks beautiful, but the value is estimated to be only ten gold coins. It is really just a gift.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness!" Stella received the gift and thanked her politely.
Immediately, the eldest prince continued to follow Bernard towards the seat beside him.
However, the second prince did not leave with the eldest prince, but stayed on the spot.
Those who are familiar with the second prince know that the slightly arrogant words earlier were exactly what the second prince said!
