[Check-in is a manifestation of honor and strength, I hope you do n’t forget to click the check-in in the upper right corner while watching the update]
The previous chapters of the second part have calculated the wrong data. Lucien actually left Aalto for more than two months and has been corrected. My math teacher cried.
………………
As a late-stage building of the "Dawn of War", Baron Habero's castle also inherited the distinctive features of this style. The wide and solemn hall, the narrow and high windows, together create a dark and mysterious atmosphere.
"Master Baron is waiting for your distinguished guests in the small restaurant on the second floor." Karin stretched out her right hand and pointed at the stairs on the edge of the hall with a smile. "The hall on the first floor is mainly used by prom and country courts."
Kushiro has been a princess consultant for half a year. He is no stranger to all occasions and etiquettes. With a smile on her head, she walks slowly towards the stairs behind Kalin's well-kept back. Wise often seemed to experience similar banquets, seeming very calm and indifferent, Betty looked at the hall enough to hold hundreds of people's prom, secretly tongue out, and even her calm sister and brother-in-law couldn't help looking around.
Stepping up the stairs, it was a long walk. The candlesticks on both sides had been lit, lighting up the dark environment at the same time, while the portraits of Baron Habero hanging from the two walls reflected the dim candlelight.
"That was the first generation of Baron Haberlo, who was sealed in the late Dawn Wars. Their blood is very powerful, and it is said that they have the ability to petrify themselves and others." Simon whispered to Lucian, Haber The heroic deeds of Baron Luo are widely spread in the Principality of Djibouti.
Kushiro stunned slightly and looked at the oil paintings on both sides: "Is it a contact attack or a long-range attack?"
Short and professional question, Simon increasingly believes that Lucien is a noble master who has undergone good and regular knight training: "Mr. Evans, when Baron Haberlo was active, I was not born. What is in the story of the bard Descriptions. "
点 Nodded gently, without asking again, Lucian continued to follow Kalin behind him as if he had heard nothing.
One of Baron Habero's portraits in the oil painting was drawn vividly, walking through them, giving the illusion of being looked at, making people feel terrified.
I didn't go far enough, Karin pushed open the door on the left.
铁 Two iron-red wooden doors slowly separated towards the two sides, revealing the magnificent and luxuriously decorated restaurant.
Deep into the restaurant is a long table with white and delicate porcelain tableware, knives, forks and candles on it. Several well-dressed servants stood next to the wall. In the space outside the dining table, there is a small indoor band. They play melodious music and make the atmosphere of the whole party elegant.
The gate guarded the soldiers on both sides of the gate. They just took away the conspicuous weapons such as the long swords carried by Lucien and others, without paying any attention to the hidden daggers and the like.
A dark-haired old man came over surrounded by several waiters. He was wearing brown robes popular during the Dawn Wars, his face was ruddy, he walked calmly, and there were only a few wrinkles on the statue-like simple face, which could not be seen at all. In his seventies.
"Welcome my guests. Your arrival has rejuvenated my dying old fellow." Baron Haberlo welcomed with a loud voice, gray eyes were not turbid, and there was only a turquoise green in his right **** up and down. Emerald seal seal ring, simple and sandwich.
"Thank you for your invitation, Lord Baron." Under Lucian's leadership, everyone responded in unison.
Baron Haberlo looked at Lucien intently: "You should be Mr. Evans, right? Young, handsome, powerful, with powerful arms and legs."
说 He said, looking carefully at Lucian's arms, chest, thighs, and face, and seeing Lucian's hair growling, "Willn't this old guy like men?"
路 Just as Lucian was almost disgusted and ready to stop, Baron Haberlo finally turned his head and greeted the others, starting with Wise, Simon and Joanna in turn.
I waited until Betty was finally greeted, and Haberlo began to look up and down again, like a purebred satyr, seeing Betty's glamorous eyes, about to erupt.
Habero also seemed to be aware of his disability, and laughed: "Please forgive me for being rude, because my body and spirit have been aging for a long time. Whenever I see Mr. Evans and Miss Betty's dynamic and promising When I was young, I couldn't help but remember myself as an adventurer. At that time, I also had such powerful and flexible hands and feet, and I had such healthy and energetic skin. Let us toast for young people ! "
With a reasonable explanation, Betty put away the anger, and Lucian also dispelled Baron Haberlo's suspicion that he liked men, but there was still a bit of inexplicable feeling, which caused a slight depression.
夫人 Led by Mrs. Karin and the waiter, Lucien and others sat down at the table.
"Master Baron, why didn't you see your butler, Mr. Cook?" Lucian asked, puzzled, after laying his napkin.
When a normal aristocrat entertains guests, it should be the housekeeper, not the housekeeper's wife. Although it is not surprising that the housekeeper's wife helped with the arrangement in the case of a female guest, it was rude to have the housekeeper never show up. As a competent guest who understands etiquette, you must ask the host at this time. Of course, the reason why Lucian asked this question was mainly because of the slight depression in his heart, and he wanted to find out what was wrong.
Baron Habero's face shook in the shade of the candlelight in front of him: "Oh, Cook is just out of the office and will be back tomorrow morning.
先生 If you are willing to let me entertain you for another day, you should be able to see him. "
After saying that, he pointed to an old-fashioned old man who came over after playing the piano: "This is my music consultant, Mr. Mars, a famous musician in Corse City."
音乐家 Although the musician Mars looks less than sixty years old, the wrinkles on his face and the white hair on his head are obviously more than those of Baron Habero, who is in his seventies.
After greeting each other, Mars couldn't help complaining: "Master Baron, this 'piano' you bought is not comparable to a harpsichord.
The sound quality is not good enough ... "
Nearly a year of transmission, the piano became almost popular among rich families on the mainland, and even nobles near the mountains such as Baron Haberlo began to chase this trend.
In a series of complaints, Betty interjected suddenly: "Actually, Mr. Mars, you didn't make good use of the pedals." She didn't like others criticizing Mr. Lucis Evans for his good instruments.
Mars frowned: "This lady, music is not a professional, it is best not to talk nonsense, I don't think I did not use the pedal." He has a good manner, no direct criticism, but only slightly arrogant.
"This is not what I said. It was secretly told to me by Mr. Wise just now. He is a gentleman with high musical literacy!" Betty sold Wise without hesitation.
Mars turned to Wise for his explanation.
Wise smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "Actually, I don't know much about music. I just talked about it in a self-interested way recently, and he talked about professional theories. He heard people other than Mars and Lucien. Outside dizziness.
Balusian was holding Baishui and listening with interest. These arguments have appeared in many newspapers of Aalto, but they can be completely shattered by the successful piano solo of his concert.
"Hey, the era of serious and formal symphony is over. It is really a glorious and splendid era. When the symphony officially established its status at the Alto Music Festival, I will never forget the crowd, and I will never forget it, now again There will not be such an exciting scene. Mr. Christopher, Mr. Leandro, Ms. Rania, Mr. Jonescu, and so many great musicians together have propped up an era that cannot be surpassed, but unfortunately The era has come to an end like every one of us inevitably dies. "In the controversy, Baron Habero expressed his opinion with emotion. He has also been to Aalto.
Betty immediately responded: "I don't think it's an era that can't be surpassed. Brand new music, brand new genres, countless possibilities, now is the time when music has the most vitality! Even Mr. Christopher accepted the theme music, Ivan Mr. Si is no worse than those great musicians! The past era is over and it is over, no pity! "She completely forgot that there was a baron.
Before dinner, everyone except Lucian joined the argument, and it became increasingly fierce.
At the end, everyone turned to stare at Lucian and asked in unison:
"Mr. Evans, what do you think?"
Lucien thought for a moment, pondering the tone: "Oh, Lord Baron, you think the past era cannot be surpassed, because you participated in that era, experienced that glory in person, denying that era is actually negating you Decades of likes, participation, and commitment. What you like and miss is actually your life in your youth. Mr. Wise, you are the same with Betty. "
"Change and development are the main theme of any era. Whether it is good or bad, I am afraid that it is most appropriate to leave it for evaluation after hundreds of years."
The argument of being impartial and shelving the argument temporarily calmed the argument, and Baron Haberro couldn't help feeling: "Mr. Evans, you're right, you always remember when you are old."
Mars is still a bit uneasy: "I don't mention the quality of the music, but can you play the piano once, Mr. Wise, so I know why I am not good at using the pedals."
"Hehe, in fact, Mr. Mars, you can learn how to use the piano by studying the latest piano music completely and in accordance with the sheet music. I don't really understand music very well." Wise humbly quit.
Baron Haberlo laughed and said, "I invite Mr. Wise to come, and I just want to listen to your performance. Why not take this opportunity to show it?"
"Yes, Mr. Wise, you play a piece of music." Betty was also interested.
Seeing everyone asking, Wise shook her head helplessly, "I'll try."
He went to the piano and sat down, calmed down for ten seconds, and started to play.
"Sadness?" The familiar melody sounded, and Lucien looked at it with a smile.
I have to say that Wise does have a good ability in music. He plays such difficult songs as "Tragedy" with ease, and handles depression, briskness, and burst well. Let Betty, Mars and others listen. Be focused and attentive.
"There is no emotional integration, the sad performance really looks pale." Lucian professionally evaluated, turning his head to just see the inexplicable complex expression of Baron Haberlo.
His facial muscles are slightly twisted A flash of gray light under his skin seems to be suppressing some painful emotions, making Lucian's bad hunch again.
He seemed to feel Lucian's gaze, and Baron Haberro smiled reluctantly: "Mr. Wise played very well. By the way, Mr. Evans, do you know Mr. Wise's full name?"
Balussian suppressed doubts and vigilance: "Bossius."
"Beauty Wise? The talented musician who went to the concert in Korser?" Mars couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Lu Zai'en's answer, "No wonder he played so well ..." I also Thought he was just an ordinary young Chenchuan who likes music
Betty's eyes became bright, and she did not expect to meet a favorite musician: "Mr. Wise is great! But he is too modest and low-key, always saying that he doesn't know music."
"Uh, it turns out to be a musician." Lucian was really surprised.
The sorrowful melody stopped, and warm applause Wise walked back.
He smiled bitterly at Lucian as he walked around the table, and helplessly spread his hands: "Actually, I really don't know much about music."
Balussian took the water glass with amusement and raised him: "Me too"
The next topic shifted to Wise, and Lucien, who had a bad feeling in her heart, saw that dinner was about to begin, so she called the waiter and asked him to lead him to the bathroom.
