The sun pierced the sky and scattered in every corner of the world.
Si Tu woke up facing the rising sun, and the breeze blew through, crumpling layers of gauze curtains.
The maids dressed her up in exquisite and luxurious clothes, and the girl's face in the mirror was beautiful and glamorous.
But she doesn't seem to be happy.
"Miss Si's beauty is somewhat more delicate than the red roses that His Royal Highness cultivated in the back garden."
I have to admit that Si Tu's beauty is indeed the most outstanding in the royal city.
It would be more perfect if there is less sadness between the eyebrows and eyes.
"Thanks."
Lowering his eyes, Si Tu lifted his cumbersome and heavy skirt, ready to go to the state banquet hall.
What should come will always come, and you can't hide it, so it's better to face it calmly.
[Yes, I wish the host a smooth journey]
The system is knocking melon seeds in the space, always eating melons will get angry.
Walking out of the bedroom, the sound of high heels echoed in the silent hall.
Si Tu followed the maid in front to the magnificent main hall.
The attendants and stewards are busy, making full preparations for tonight's state banquet.
Even a person like Si Tu, who is used to luxury, can't help sighing when he sees this resplendent palace,
"It's going to be so grand..."
"The assets of the royal family and nobles in the royal city are beyond your imagination."
Claire walked towards Situ gracefully, shaking her gauze fan.
The servants around stepped back one after another, it seemed that Claire's status in the palace was not low.
Also, as the wife of the lord of the second district, and the aunt of the little prince.
Of course the status is distinguished.
"Madam Puzuo is well, may the God of Light bless you."
Si Tu bent slightly, and performed a standard court etiquette to her.
"I do hope that the God of Light can take care of you juniors."
"The royal family has always been ruthless. Power is always more important than blood. Even the real power in the hands of His Royal Highness is only allowed to be used this year."
Looking at the empty surroundings, Si Tu frowned and reminded,
"Royal Secret, you shouldn't have said these things to me."
Although she knew about this matter from her brother last night, Claire was not familiar with her after all.
Si Tu couldn't fully trust her.
"But Eric said that he wants to marry you. In this case, you are not an outsider."
The change of title means the change of identity.
Claire standing in front of her at this time is not a noble lady, but an elder who cares about Eric.
"In these years, he has suffered a lot of grievances. You must be aware of the imperial family's filthiness."
"But I'm very happy. Finally, there is a girl beside him who can let him let go of his guard."
It can truly make him feel the beauty of the world, and no longer indulge in the grief and sadness of the past.
It was her who gave him the courage to move forward.
So no matter what, she wanted to facilitate this marriage.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Puzuo, I don't have any affection for His Royal Highness."
It's better for her to explain this matter as soon as possible.
At most, she is just addicted to Eric's beauty.
But this man's means and scheming are beyond her control.
If you are a little careless, it will be bad if you get caught on fire.
"Miss Si, don't talk so loudly, sometimes outsiders see much more clearly than insiders."
Noticing her daze, Claire smiled lightly,
"My nephew has never been worse than the leader of the Quebec Party!"
Si Tu lowered his eyes, and just about to say something, the head maid of the palace invited Claire away.
Probably because of some problems with the arrangement of the state banquet.
Si Tu didn't take it seriously, and went to the main hall alone.
Andre, as the recipient of the state banquet, was summoned into the palace by the king early in the morning, and Aile walked with him.
As guests, Odyssus and his party only need to go to the banquet at night.
As for the elder brother, he has already led the Knights Templar to patrol the palace according to the king's orders.
Victor, who is the chief knight of the temple, is currently inspecting the state banquet hall.
"Miss Si."
After seeing Si Tu, Victor came over to say hello.
It's just that he was in the palace, so he didn't behave as kindly as usual.
"Where did brother go?"
Although he knew that he was patrolling the palace, Si Tu still couldn't help wanting to know about him.
"The crown prince of the knight will go to the palace with the leader of the party leader to meet His Majesty in the morning."
The two were summoned together
Aware of her doubts, Victor added,
"It seems that the Knight Commander didn't propose it on his own initiative, and he doesn't seem to know about it."
My brother never fights unprepared battles, and he should have expected this time when the king summoned him.
Seeing that her delicate brows were still frowning, Victor chuckled and changed the subject,
"This is Ms. Si's first time attending a state banquet, so I'm not curious about what interesting things will happen at the state banquet?"
Actually, he wasn't very curious, but Si Tu still gave him face and motioned him to continue talking.
"On the night of the state banquet, there will be a lot of great people who are rare to see on weekdays."
That's it
She came to see someone
Seeing that she wasn't interested in the slightest, Victor touched his nose in embarrassment, ready to show his trump card,
"I heard that the high priest who usually avoids people in the Temple of Light will also be here."
He is the representative of the God of Light in the hearts of the people in the northern border, and the grand occasion of the state banquet can be seen at that time.
"Stay in the temple all year round to serve the gods, so let them come out and let the wind go."
Don't be a god if you don't understand, drive yourself crazy first.
Si Tu has never had a good impression of these people in the temple, so what he said was naturally merciless.
Victor's mouth twitched slightly.
Is the word "release the wind" used for dogs
Miss Si must have said the wrong word, she definitely did not mean to offend the God of Light!
Victor shouldered the king's dictation, and Situ didn't delay his inspection, and started strolling on his own.
Seeing the maids carrying all kinds of dessert cakes, Si Tu was about to go up and grab a piece.
"Hungry before lunch time?"
The raised footsteps were abruptly stopped by the familiar voice behind him.
Si Tu turned his head and bumped into Eric's olive green eyes.
"Why are you here?"
On the day of the state banquet, shouldn't His Highness be very busy as a prince
How come you still have the time to come over and ask her if she is hungry
"Father is discussing matters with Andre and Yin En at this time, and Odyssus will not appear here at this time."
That's why he judged that Si Tuhui was alone in the state banquet hall.
"Such a perfect opportunity to be alone, if I don't come, wouldn't it be a waste?"
Eric maintained an elegant etiquette, took her hand, leaned over and said,
"Would you like to have something to eat? I heard that the chef of this state banquet is best at desserts."
