Chapter 193: Cleverness

Chapter One Hundred Ninety Three
Despite the doubts in his heart, Roddy still walked up to Nicole, extended a hand in accordance with the interests of the nobles he had learned, and made the most standard invitation gesture.
The magnificent movement began to sound...
With arms around Nicole’s slender waist, the two danced to the side of the brisk music... According to the usual practice, the first dance was enjoyed by the Emperor alone, so naturally the people next to him could only stand and watch. For the sake of it.
But this kind of respect is not something ordinary people can enjoy...
Roddy just jumped a few steps with Nicole, and he felt uncomfortable all over... Countless eyes around him were shining on him, envy, amazement, doubts, disdain, jealousy, and anger... Of course , More people are guessing Roddy’s identity...
All kinds of complicated eyes fell on him, making Roddy feel a little nervous, as if he was so uncomfortable all over. The hand holding Nicole couldn't help but stiffen.
"Relax..." Nicole sensed Roddy's nervousness, hurriedly leaned to his ear, and said softly: "Don't worry about their eyes."
After saying this, Nicole almost snuggled into Roddy's arms, completely relaxed, and let Roddy hug herself and dance in circles. She has received aristocratic education since she was a child. Naturally, she has experienced many such occasions. Although it is the first time to dance the first dance in full view on this grand occasion, the tension in her heart is far better than Roddy. Up.
Roddy only felt that a gentle body was close to his arms, his nose was full of the familiar fragrance of Nicole's body, and his heart couldn't help but loosen up, and the original stiff movements became much smoother...
The man's figure is slender and tall, full of heroism. The female is beautiful again, peerlessly enchanting-even more on the background behind them, especially the mysterious identity of Roddy at the moment. All eyes in the hall were focused on them.
Andy still had a majestic expression on his face, sitting on the top throne, but he almost died with a smile in his heart.
"Old Skeleton, what are you proud of?" Hearing Tian Lie's shrill voice in his ears, Andy immediately realized that it was the fat man who was talking to himself in a special way.
"Fatty man, are you using mind-reading?" Andy frowned secretly: "Is the domain strong? How dare to read mind-reading to my old man? Aren't you afraid that I will use spells to bite you back?"
Tian Lie smiled arrogantly, but did not speak.
Andy also showed a sly look: "When did my old man learn to dance? I don't know how to do this kind of difficult thing. Let this kid dance well..."
Tian Lie's voice seemed to sigh: "You guy has too much trouble...As soon as you do this scene today, tomorrow everyone will guess what the Emperor Emperor has to do with this kid...Ah..."
Andy smiled innocently: "Me? I didn't say anything, I just said "I'm proud of you"..."
At this moment, everyone in the hall began to applaud. The first dance song was over. The dancing couple had separated. After doing a noble courtesy with each other, they both walked to the side.
The rest of the time will be more free. Tonight is a festive dinner. Naturally, there are not many rules, but Roddy is already crowded with all kinds of people.
I have to say that people who can get to a high position are a little bit savvy, even though they are still not sure what this kid has to do with the emperor-but the intimacy of the emperor to him just now is obvious! What's more, I pulled him back alone just now. Although I don't know what the Emperor said to him alone, after he came out, even his clothes were changed... Doesn't this explain the problem?
The palace is not your own locker room!
So, even though this kid is now just a viscount, just a small officer-but what is this? As long as you get the favor of His Majesty the Emperor, your future status and wealth are no longer in doubt!
Although Roddy wondered why these people suddenly became so interested in him—normally, the protagonist tonight should be Milo! The Duke of Tulip does not appear, so Milo, who has a big family background, is also a great hero of the war. He should be the most dazzling talent tonight!
Seeing the people around him chatting with him, Roddy felt a little irritable—in fact, what he wanted to do most at the moment was to be beside Nicole...just now the dancing of the two made Roddy’s heart full of tenderness—young Mind, who doesn't have a bit of romance in his heart? What's more, it was the first time that the two of them had been able to dance so intimately before others.
What made Roddy even more upset was that as soon as the dance music ended, Nicole began to surround a few nasty flies... Some of those people Roddy knew, and they were all characters like the young heir of the certain family. Looking at their gazes looking at Nicole, if it weren't for the officers guarded by Thor's Whip around, I would have swallowed Nicole!
Now the Tulip family is gaining momentum, as long as it has a relationship with the Tulip family, it is a guarantee of status and future!
To be honest, Roddy really missed the identity of the Duke of Tulip at the moment. At that time, there were a few soldiers from the Spike Army around him, and he could protect himself, at least keep these nasty flies away from him. .
The guy in front of him, with an unpredictable smile on his face, presumably considers himself a treasure, right?
The one on the left looks like he wants to see through...He doesn’t have that kind of preference...
Well, this person is even more outrageous, what is he always staring at his face?
Finally, someone rescued him...
"Your Excellency Viscount Roddy." An old voice rang from the side, and Roddy looked over, but his feelings of joy sank suddenly-the person who spoke was the old fox of the Marquis of Caroline.
Caroline smiled more like a standard old fox at the moment, but his squinted eyes showed sharp eyes, and the people in front of him immediately gave way to him.
The old marquis walked up to Roddy and smiled and said: "Your Excellency, you have done such a great contribution to the empire at a young age, and you will have a bright future!" After speaking, he patted Roddy on the shoulder affectionately.
Roddy didn't dare to neglect. Although he didn't like this guy in his heart, he still maintained a gentle smile on his face. He saluted him in accordance with the noble etiquette, and then smiled at Milo, who was standing next to the Marquis of Caroline. "Miro-sama has been made an earl, which is even more admired by the officials."
The three were talking, but Milo made a color. The officers of the Northern Army under him immediately occupied a few places around them with a calm expression, and squeezed away the other nobles who had surrounded the three without showing a trace. Up.
It was made clear that he was going to occupy this mysterious new star that suddenly appeared on his own!
Due to the limelight of the Lionheart family, naturally no one would have trouble with the old marquis at this time.
The words of the Marquis of Caroline were fictitious and true, and he tried to find out Roddy's origin and background-but Roddy had already prepared a way to answer these questions. In fact, before he started to show his face in his original face, he had already discussed with Andy and others about the subsequent problems.
It took a long time for the Marquis of Caroline to find that the other party didn't say anything about his own life experience, and the words were just perfunctory to himself. It's just that the longer the two talked, the more surprised the Marquis Caroline was at the young man in front of him: the young man named Roddy, in his speech and behavior was full of a calm manner, although the tone was very peaceful, but The gaze that occasionally flashed in his eyes surprised the old marquis a little - it was the gaze of a habitual person in a high position, the gaze that was used to controlling everything.
During the conversation between the two, although Roddy showed a respectful and humble attitude of the subordinates to the superiors, but in terms of aura, there was a faint sense of resistance to the old fox who had been in power for many years. According to the truth, a marquis and a viscount stand in front of everything, one is the Imperial Minister of Military Affairs, and the other is an intermediate officer. But the feeling for the Marquis of Caroline is true: this guy seems to have an unrevealed aura of majesty. Of course the old marquis knows that this kind of majesty cannot be deliberately disguised, the kind formed through a long period of training and habits...
What is the origin of this young man? ?
This question always hung in the heart of Marquis Caroline-he became more and more certain of his guess!
He must be the person next to His Majesty the Emperor-this guy is so young, he seems to have the kind of aura of obsessiveness in his words and behavior, the kind of manner that will wipe out everything while talking and laughing, which no one else can learn. of!
In my impression, it's just the royal family's talents with this kind of temperament, right?
Prince Barang, the current emperor, and before Bayan died, he could occasionally reveal this kind of temperament-but it seems that the young man in front of him is not so natural, so natural...
The old Marquis became more and more surprised and unconscious. When talking with the other party, his behavior became more and more careful and gentler. In the end, it was not like a superior who was trying to force a subordinate, but more like It's just two big people of the same level chatting.
Speaking of the last, the Marquis of Caroline inadvertently mentioned that two days later, His Majesty Corsica VI, the Pope of the Imperial Church, will receive the triumphant heroes in the Imperial City, and will award the heroes of the Holy War the Order of the Church. After listening to the words of the Marquis of Caroline, Roddy showed an expression of disapproval unconsciously.
Who is the Marquis of Caroline? Immediately, he could see the different expression on Roddy's face. Then he smiled slightly and said: "Your Excellency, is it possible that for the reception of His Majesty the Pope..."
Before the Marquis Caroline finished speaking, Roddy glanced at him, and then said in a calm tone: "I am Mr. Qiu's disciple!" Although his tone was calm, it was somewhat faint. The meaning of respect.
Mr. Qiu's disciple? !
The face of the Marquis Caroline was a little unnatural.
Of course he thought of the meaning of Roddy's words.
Mr. Qiu died in the hands of His Majesty the Pope that day-although His Majesty the Emperor did not pursue the court incident that day, he will not mention who is right and who is wrong. Whether Mr. Qiu is a different kind, after all, he is just a court warrior-although he is the chief warrior. But since His Majesty said that Mr. Qiu is a stranger, a member of the Kara ethnic group, then there is no need for the empire to turn his face for such a court warrior and the religion of Qiu? Although it seems that the relationship between the two parties has not been as close as before, but a war has brought the religion and the empire together again...
But the Marquis of Caroline thought more deeply...
Mr. Qiu's disciple? !
Mr. Qiu is a "court" warrior! Since he is a disciple of Mr. Qiu, where did Mr. Qiu teach his swordsmanship?
Only in the palace! !
Who is qualified to accept Mr. Qiu's teaching? Qualified to be Mr. Qiu's disciple? ?
Of course the Marquis of Caroline knew that a court warrior was a royal warrior! Not everyone can be qualified to be taught by a court warrior!
Even if the court warrior wants to collect land, he must get permission from the royal family in advance!
The Marquis of Caroline was even more intrigued: when the princes and princes of the past were not adults, the task of teaching them swordsmanship was all the responsibility of the court warriors!
"He is a royal family! He must be a royal family!!" The muscles around the corner of Marquis Caroline's eyes trembled a little, although his face was still smiling, his heart could no longer remain calm!
Perhaps it was cleverness that was mistaken by cleverness. The more the old Marquis thought, the more complicated it became, and the more profound he thought it became... Finally he couldn't help but peeked at His Majesty the Emperor.
His Majesty the emperor has never established a crown prince. Could it be that... this young man has such an extraordinary temperament and said that he is a disciple of Mr. Qiu-then can it be said that he has always lived in the palace before?
After the emperor completely wiped out the influence of Prince Balang, he pushed this young man in front of everyone during the war. The profound meaning...
The Marquis Caroline's thoughts turned in his mind, but Roddy was gradually impatient. Seeing a few flies around Nicole... Damn, one of them looked more and more wretched, Roddy whispered and beat the old Marquis. A hello, strode away.
The Marquis of Caroline was thinking about his own thoughts, but Miró next to him frowned and said, "Uncle, what is this Roddy worthy of you thinking about?"
The Marquis of Caroline shook his head, took a deep look at his nephew, and slowly said: "Miro, you are the hope of our family's future, but your eyesight is still much worse! Be careful in the future! "
"Oh?"
The old marquis nodded and slowly said: "Miro, I can tell you... we have dug up the treasure!" His eyes looked at the back of Roddy who was leaving, his voice was a little low, but it was a bit of a cover. Uncontrollably excited: "It's this kid! I know you have always been arrogant, but you should pay attention to your relationship with him in the military! Remember!"
