blah blah...
The sound of the crystal shoe stepping on the floor approached Colin, and the wonderful rhythm struck his heart, making him unable to turn around to see who the owner of the sound was.
Then, he saw Queen Midella walking towards him with a smile.
"Viscount Angelet, may I have the honor to dance with you?"
Facing the invitation of this glamorous queen, Ke Lin felt a warning sign in his heart.
This woman is afraid to make trouble!
"It's my honor to dance with you, but I'm sorry Your Majesty, I have invited Queen Aisha just now..."
Unexpectedly, Queen Midella didn't seem to intend to let Colin go so easily, but turned directly to Queen Aisha and asked with a smile:
"Your Majesty, may I lend Viscount Angelet to me for a while?"
"Of course." Queen Aisha had no choice but to respond with a smile, and at the same time gave Colin a self-seeking look.
Ke Lin was speechless for a while, so he had no choice but to hold Queen Midella's jade hand and walked into the dance floor of the hall.
The melodious harp accompanied by the light bagpipe played an elegant and moving movement.
Colin stood still in the middle of the dance floor, staring into Queen Midella's eyes, put his right hand on her smooth back, and pulled her into his arms.
Queen Midella had a charming smile on her beautiful face, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and let Colin guide her to complete dance steps one after another.
In the sound of the music, Ke Lin and Queen Midella showed an amazing tacit understanding, as if they had known each other for many years, and performed the beauty of the court dance to the extreme, which was pleasing to the eye.
Under the admiring eyes of everyone, Queen Midella suddenly whispered: "Viscount Angelet, thank you for teaching Harrison."
"You are too polite, Your Highness, this is what I should do." Colin replied neither humble nor humble.
The current Colin is no longer the son of the baron who had no power and power and could only follow the crowd. With the power he controls now, even if he faces the Queen of the Empire, there is no need to bow his knees and be trembling.
What's more, this incident itself was first provoked by the queen, and Colin must give a warning and fight back, otherwise, the other party will definitely try to get involved in the half-elf kingdom that Colin regards as forbidden.
Hearing Colin's answer, Queen Midella was not only not angry, but also showed a perfect smile.
At this moment, the soul-stirring temptation revealed by the queen made the young nobles in the hall dumbfounded and fascinated. They wished they could replace Viscount Angelet and dance with Her Highness the Queen.
However, Queen Midella found that although her partner Ke Lin had a smile on her face, her eyes were still clear, and she could even detect a trace of deep vigilance and fear in it.
"Your Excellency, I am not your enemy." Queen Midella said again, "If you misunderstood me about something before, I hope this dance can make you feel my apology."
"You are serious, Your Royal Highness, I have only respect for you, and there is no misunderstanding." Colin responded casually, slandering in his heart—
Am I so easy to cheat
Queen Midella straightened her chest, and her entire upper body stuck to Ke Lin's body.
At this time, the distance between the two has exceeded the limit of normal ballroom dancing.
Colin was shocked and almost stepped on the wrong rhythm. Afterwards, he heard Queen Midella whispering in his ear like a lover:
"Viscount Angelet, I'm serious. Your teaching to Harrison actually suits me very well.
To tell you the truth, that is the destiny of the San Lorenzo family for thousands of years. Even if you don't teach him, I will do it sooner or later.
So, my thanks are sincere.
Moreover, if everything you said to Harrison is true, then we are actually natural allies! "
Ke Lin couldn't help but tilt his head slightly, and looked at Queen Midella in his arms.
A pair of bright and charming eyes seemed to have a breathtaking magic power, and Colin almost couldn't help but be addicted to it.
"Your Highness, I don't understand what you mean."
Seeing that Ke Lin was still pretending to be stupid, Queen Midella giggled.
"Colin..." Queen Midella whispered into Colin's ear, and the address became very friendly, "Actually, the power of this alliance is far beyond your imagination.
Think about it carefully, one day when you understand it, you can come to me. "
Colin blinked, and continued to play dumb.
The heart slanders again—
Am I that easy to cheat? Just a few words and you want me to work hard for you
Seeing that Ke Lin did not respond to her, Queen Midella was not discouraged, but smiled again: "As a thank you, I will give you a little secret."
"Please tell me." Colin finally spoke, wanting to see what tricks the queen could play.
"The sword my brother gave you, do you know its origin?"
"The Blade of Judgment?" Colin nodded in his heart, "Yes, I have some understanding. It is said that it was originally the sword of the Duke of San Theon."
"Then you also know the fate of the Saint Sean family?"
"Yes, I heard that the clan has been exterminated."
The smile on Queen Midella's face suddenly became inscrutable: "How can a paladin family cut off the inheritance so easily?"
"Oh?" Colin frowned, not too surprised, "Then do you know their current whereabouts?"
Queen Midella stopped answering.
Seeing this, Colin didn't ask any further questions.
In fact, he is not very interested in this family. If he hadn't been given the [Blade of Judgment], Colin would never have had an intersection with them.
After being silent for a while, Queen Midella suddenly turned her head to look in Queen Aisha's direction, and said with a smile, "Someone is courting your little lover."
Colin looked over and saw that Queen Aisha was talking to a young man.
And that young man was none other than Lawrence Uman, who had just visited Colin yesterday.
Colin smiled slightly and denied, "Your Highness, have you misunderstood something? How could Her Majesty the Queen be my lover?"
Queen Midella smiled charmingly, apparently not believing Colin's denial. However, she did not continue to entangle on this topic, but instead asked: "Aren't the Uman family annoying?"
"Your Highness, my elder sister married into the Uman family." Ke Lin would not admit his dislike for the Uman family.
"Really? I'm sorry, but I just don't like them, especially those red eyes." Queen Midella seemed to mention it inadvertently, "It's just like the San Theon family back then, it's scary to see."
Ke Lin's heart jumped, and he asked in surprise, "The Saint Sean family also has red pupils?"
"Yes." Queen Midella suddenly smiled inscrutablely.
As if struck by a bolt of lightning, Colin's expression froze instantly.
Queen Midella's lazy voice came again: "Do you know how Earl Uman's wife from the Su Duo family died?"
"How did you die?"
Queen Midella stopped talking.
Ke Lin understood that the other party was deliberately teasing him, and probably wanted him to join the so-called "alliance".
Of course he won't be fooled.
However, the information given by the queen just now is enough to make Colin think about it.
One name after another seemed to be uncontrollable, and kept popping out of his mind.
The Santheon family, the Savoy family, the Uman family, the Sudor family...
Count Uman, Lady Penny, Lawrence, Madame Sudor, Valla...
Colin felt as if he had seen a clue that connected all the doubts before.
With all his concentration, everything around him seemed to be far away from him.
Before I knew it, the harp jumped to the last note.
At the end of the song, Colin stopped dancing like a puppet.
But immediately, he felt a pain in his foot.
Looking down, he saw Queen Midella stepped on his feet unceremoniously, even crushed him hard, and said angrily:
"You're distracted while dancing with me, Viscount Angelet, you're so rude!"
Colin grinned in pain, apologized to the queen, and then sent her back to the sidelines.
Immediately afterwards, he greeted Viscount Lawrence beside Queen Aisha with a smile on his face:
"Your Excellency Viscount Lawrence, we meet again!"
