Chapter 96: serenade
Natasha stopped in front of Felice and laughed humorously, "Don't you welcome me? I was a guest at Silvia's house, and I happened to know that she was going to come to your initiation ceremony, so I thought the old count was still alive. I used to visit this villa and the 'Berne' manor. Ha ha, Felice, you were so short and young, and desperately wanted to follow me, Brother Alfred, Uncle Samuel and Harrington. Hunting, but always falling, unable to catch up, can only cry wow, ten years later, you are already so tall, you have grown up. Brother Alfred and Uncle Samuel saw in Laos This scene will be very pleased. "
Alfred is the eldest son of Archduke Vauliet, and Natasha's brother, also a puppet of a fifth-level knight in his twenties. Samuel is now the elder of Hain and the older brother of Urban. Once the most righteous and deserved heirs of the title, they all died in a war with the heretical knights nearly a decade ago.
Natasha, who was just going to make fun and satisfy her curiosity, saw Ferris and recalled the blue chūn past in the memory. After thinking about ten years, she passed through hard training and finally started A little girl became a real warrior, but she was continuously called by the Lord, and she gradually drifted away from her former partner, and she could not help but feel sad and throbbed.
Felix was originally trapped in huge disappointment, depression, sadness and anger, but forcibly supported the smiley face to welcome the guest. At this time, she was shocked by the arrival of Natasha, and then heard her warm words with emotions, she couldn't control it immediately. Tears erupted, "Of course you are welcome, and very welcome, sister Natasha, no, Her Royal Highness."
She called subconsciously as a child.
Natasha gave Felice a hug: "It doesn't matter, call me Natasha. I was always full of the best memories of my life as a child. Happy birth, Felice, congratulations on being a real lady."
The atmosphere was warm and slightly sentimental, calming the soul, and Lucien realized why even if he was so disgusted by Count Hain, Urban could still be a clerk of the Aalto City Hall. Many little aristocrats come and go, and Felice can be a good friend with Evette, the most beloved daughter of Count Hill. Alfred and Natasha should have been with Samuel, Urban, Harrington, and Philip Liz has a good relationship.
Natasha let go of Felice, watching her tears of excitement, joy, and sentimentality, and smiled slightly: "Well, don't cry, Felice, today is your adult gift, tears are not suitable to decorate your beauty Be happy, be happy, understand? I ’ll preside over your rite of passage. ”As a big knight, she knew at a glance that Count Haine had not arrived, and understood why.
"Well, I will be happy to hold a birthday party." Felice tried to control her tears, and answered with a cry and a smile. There is a future granddaughter, and now the Countess Violet presides over the ceremony for herself. That is the sea. Can Earl compare?
Seeing her appearance, Natasha tried to ease the atmosphere with humorous words: "I didn't bring any gifts, don't you mind, Felice?"
"How could you be here to be the best gift?" Felice hugged Natasha again. Her timely arrival, warm embrace, gentle comfort were so beautiful, full of big sister or elder brother. a feeling of.
Natasha waited for Felice to release herself before pointing to Lucien inside: "But my music consultant will definitely bring you beautiful and joyful music, let you forget the trouble, and immerse yourself in adulthood. Happiness. "
She whispered in her heart: "Asshole, because I was curious about your serenade, I would come here, and ended up in such an emotion, almost tears. How could a great and strong knight shed tears, so I want to give you pressure……"
The strangeness between Natasha and Lucien disappeared a lot because of the "horn of silver and silver" last time, coupled with Natasha's humorous, direct and ridiculous xìng, and Lucien is not afraid The "normal" response of the stage fright made the two entries more and more like friends.
It was mentioned in public by Natasha that all eyes focused on Lucien, because many musicians in the musicians themselves were aristocratic origins, or were sponsored by the aristocracy, so most of them already knew that Lucien would play A new serenade congratulated Phyllis and gave a soft conversation.
His Royal Highness is so looking forward to it, if it is not above normal level, then this work is a failure!
"Welcome to you, Her Royal Highness, Ms. Camille, and Ms. Silvia." It seemed as if a flower had bloomed on Urban's face, as she motioned for Felice to stop being excited, and greeted Natasha.
In the hall, Silvia came directly to the circle where the musicians gathered, and Natasha reluctantly greeted the nobles, no matter whether their title was high or low, whether their strength was strong or weak, as long as They have the status of nobility. As their lord, the most basic etiquette is still required.
The more Sylvia went this way, the more flushed her face became, the more timid the whole girl was. She was the first time to attend a banquet with Natasha in this way, and it was inevitable to face many familiars. reaction.
"Good evening, teacher, you are very early." Silvia said hello to Christopher, a disciple of this "living musical legend".
Christopher sighed softly. There was nothing demanding. The entrant in the music industry was more acceptable in this regard. He only said briefly with concern: "Silvia, think about the future, well, Do n’t you want to adapt the piano? There are a few "authorities" of pianos, so you can talk more. "
He was "authoritative" referring to Victor, Rhein, and Lucien, and he appreciated the piano's new fingering, while Silvia was previously limited to the harpsichord instruments that he was good at. Playing in the room or salon, so even though she composed a lot of elegant and quiet and beautiful music, she had never held a concert in the chanting hall. The appearance of the piano gave her hope, and she planned to change some of the music to fit the piano. Prepare for later.
Natasha told Lucian about this, so Lucian had no doubts at this time, and communicated with Silvia seriously and seriously about the problems of adapting piano songs and piano fingering, which eased her feelings of shyness.
Julian and other musicians from the Tria court were forgotten by Lucian. They wanted to intervene a few times, but they knew very little about the piano. They could not join the exchange. Others were not enthusiastic about them. They see it as a music puppet, because here is Aalto, because they are not famous in Aalto.
This attitude made Julian Sanjin feel the arrogance of the outsiders in the Alto music industry and felt that he was insulted.
McCands watched their expressions change and smiled with satisfaction.
............ As Natasha came to preside over Felice's inauguration ceremony, many nobles rushed over after being informed, delaying the banquet originally scheduled to start at 8:30.
Count Hain was so angry that if he pretended to be ill, he would pretend to the end. Anyway, for his grand aristocracy, as long as it is not a crime such as blasphemy, treason, and treason, even the grand sinner can spend luxury in his territory Noble life is at best far from the political arena of the Principality and deprived of control by the non-direct Knights, but Harrington came to the banquet for a well-known reason.
The maturity ceremony is not complicated. Natasha took a flaming flower from Felice's mother, put it on Felice's left chest together with the coat of arms of the Hain family, and then issued a short congratulatory message.
then. She reached out to invite Felice, and the opening dance of the birth party was the last item of the ceremony.
In the festive and happy melody, two beautiful dancers danced. Natasha is a fifth-level knight. No matter strength, agility, or coordination, she far surpassed Filith, and took her out of the best dance in life. .
After the opening dance, Felice gasped a little by the side, while Natasha waited calmly, because according to the process, below will be Lucien's serenade-style piano sketch.
In all the curiosity and anticipation, Ms. Felice walked up to the hall to announce the show.
But at this time, Julian followed and said with a polite and apologetic smile: "His Royal Highness Princess, respectful husband, beautiful Miss Felice, and ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry without permission Come here. I'm Julian from the Tria court. Imam didn't get the invitation from Ms. Felice, so she followed Mr. Griffith to attend her birthday party. It was too presumptuous. It's too reckless, so I want to send a serenade I created to express my apologies and congratulations. "
The reason is reasonable and sincere, if no Lucien is about to play a serenade.
Natasha raised her eyebrows and looked at Lucien with a funny look. She seemed to be saying, "It's really troublesome. Look, your musician's reputation is really troublesome Lucien carelessly spreads He responded.
In Natasha's view, he meant: "Nothing, let him perform first."
So she smiled and nodded in agreement with Julian's line-up. With her position, Felice and her parents naturally would not object.
Julian walked up to the band in excitement and gave them the music they brought with them, so that they could get acquainted with them first, and waited by themselves, preparing to be in front of the many musicians of Aalto, a princess and many Performing in front of the aristocracy will be a very good chance to become famous. Especially on such occasions, he is a good musician who often composes serenades for triumphant dances in the court of Tria.
"Although in the symphony and concerto and other elegant music, Aalto is the music mecca of the entire continent, but the serenade in the banquet style must be better for the musicians of the Tria court!" This is Julian's voice, but also a lot of travel The style has been evaluated by Tria's musicians.
What kind of bad environment is of course suitable for what kind of music growth.
