Aurelia Windrunner … Bah! Aurelia Irus, the apple of His Majesty Victor's eye, 22 years old, the Princess of the Irus Empire, the second in line to the throne, the Flower Crown of Irus, the Pearl of Alinx …
However, these halos still couldn't show her beauty and excellence.
She had inherited all the good points of Victor and Queen Olina. It was said that she had already started to show her amazing charm when she was only 12 years old.
Prince Stanley of the Kingdom of Gris in the north was stunned when he saw her. He proposed to marry Princess Aurelia. Of course, he was rejected by His Majesty Victor. Instead of saying that Princess Aurelia was very charming, Prince Stanley was more of a perverted lolicon.
When she was 16, a Megalosaurus who worked with the Star Diamond Bank attended her birthday party. At that time, he praised Aurelia's beauty as exquisite as that of an elf. When the bards heard about this, they spread it widely and increased Princess Aurelia's fame again.
Now, Prince Stanley was His Majesty, and Aurelia had become a famous young lady. Her every move touched many people's hearts.
Just like now.
The sky had just darkened, and the people in the various districts of Alinx had yet to return home. The streets were busy and congested, but at that moment, the third street of the inner city's garden district was filled with all kinds of luxurious carriages. These carriages all had their family badges hanging on the most conspicuous places, announcing their origins to others.
Hundreds of elegant nobles stood in groups of three to five at the gate of the Forier manor. The Garden wasn't a place that just anyone could enter. Because of these people, the usually peaceful Garden became a lot livelier.
The nobles gathered here controlled almost half of the power of the Irus Empire. In fact, other than the nobles who had broken off relations with the Forier family, all the other nobles who had received the invitation were here.
Even though the door to Foire Manor was not open yet, they were not in a hurry since they had already received the invitation. They chatted leisurely with each other. Their every movement exuded the nobility of the upper class, which was also the so-called sense of superiority.
If they received the invitation today, it would be a symbol of their status tomorrow. Of course, they could be proud.
Some sharp-eyed people had already noticed that inside the manor, the servants were busy setting up the venue outside the banquet. Fragrant bread, roast meat, bacon, and wine were all placed on the long table. Under the light of the magic crystal lamps, it was as bright as day. To create an atmosphere, a bonfire was lit on the side …
If the outside was already like this, what would it be like inside?
However, everyone knew that the most important thing for a noble's banquet was not to eat and drink. They didn't care about the reason. They valued making friends with others. Today's focus was obviously to use this rare opportunity to get acquainted with Grand Duke Aubrey, and then get to know his granddaughter, Elsa.
Perhaps for the sake of Parola's safety, Grand Duke Aubrey had never hosted a banquet ever since they got married. As time passed, the nobles had gotten used to it. So when they heard Grand Duke Aubrey suddenly announcing a banquet, they were shocked. Of course, they had to prepare carefully to seize this opportunity.
These nobles had already heard the good news. When they found out that Elsa was a 16-year-old girl, they all prepared gifts. They were just waiting to get acquainted with her when the time came.
At this time, the nobles noticed a carriage coming from afar.
When they first saw the carriage, they didn't pay much attention to it because many people were coming one after another. But when the carriage came closer and they saw the double-sword crown emblem, they all gasped.
The emblem of the royal family of Irus!
When the carriage came to a stop and the person in the carriage appeared, the nobles all exclaimed in surprise.
It was Princess Aurelia!
Princess Aurelia, who had never attended any private banquets, actually came to the Forier family's banquet!
Damn it! They hadn't heard this news before!
Many of the nobles were secretly angry. They had prepared gifts for Elsa. They didn't expect to meet Princess Aurelia at this time!
However, some of the nobles were secretly happy because the door hadn't opened yet. This gave them a chance to talk to Princess Aurelia!
However, before they could finish their speech, the door slowly opened. Aubrey and Parola, who had received the news, brought Elsa and Tang En to the door to welcome Aurelia personally.
"Welcome, Aubrey."
"Sorry to disturb you."
Hearing her nickname, Aurelia was a little shy. She took Parola's hand very familiarly. "I haven't seen Auntie in a long time …"
"That's because you've been too busy, Aubrey."
Parola affectionately called Aurelia's nickname. She nodded at the others, then turned and led her inside.
Aurelia secretly observed Tang En and Elsa next to her. After noticing Tang En's gaze, she immediately looked away as if nothing had happened.
This is Princess Aurelia?
Tang En silently praised the princess. This princess lived up to her reputation. She was very beautiful, as delicate as an elf. Of course, she still couldn't compare to my Aiguin!
The shameless Tang En had already marked Aiguin in his heart, but he didn't know that he wasn't Long Aotian. So … life was hard.
It seemed that the banquet could finally begin.
The nobles smiled. Just as they took a step forward, Aubrey turned and waved his hand. With a bang, the door closed again.
The smiles on everyone's faces froze.
A few people standing by the door suddenly heard quarreling from inside.
"… Wait! Why did you close the door!? They haven't come in yet! "
"They?"
"Don't tell me you forgot that we're going to hold a banquet!"
"… I really forgot."
Then there was silence behind the door. The group of people in front of the door looked at each other.
After a short silence, Aubrey opened the door again with a straight face. "Come in, all of you."
Then, he walked inside on his own.
If it was someone else who did this, these nobles would probably turn hostile and leave immediately. But now it was Aubrey who did this. Their family was not as powerful, their background was not as strong, and their fists were not as strong. How could they turn hostile? So …
They endured it!
After everyone came in, the banquet officially began.
The first step was naturally Aubrey announcing Elsa's identity in front of everyone. Unsurprisingly, Elsa received high praise and received a lot of valuable gifts. She also received a lot of eyes from the nobles. Obviously, Elsa, who was as slow as Tang En, did not feel anything. So those people were sad.
Aurelia smiled and said, "Auntie, Niece Elsa is so beautiful. She looks just like Sister Clairat when she was young, and she also has the heroic spirit of Brother Abedon."
"Your mouth is still so sweet. Elsa will be very happy to hear it."
Aurelia smiled sweetly and looked at Tang En as if nothing had happened. Then she deliberately asked curiously, "Auntie, who is that person? I don't know him. "
Parola looked at Aurelia with a smile and said, "Aurelia, as someone who has been through this, I have to remind you. Sometimes, don't go overboard when you pretend to be stupid. After all, I used to be a princess. Do you think I will believe you if you say you don't know him? You should have already gotten the information about the people here before you came, right? "
Aurelia blushed and hugged Parola. She said coquettishly, "Auntie!"
"Okay, okay, okay. Pretend I didn't say anything. I will also pretend you don't know, okay?"
Parola lowered her voice and said, "He is Tang En, the Lord of Ellington. Elsa trusts him very much. Aubrey thinks he is a person chosen by your father to develop in Ellington for the future of the royal family … As for whether it is true or not, you have to ask your father."
Aurelia frowned slightly because she did not know about this.
"Other than that?"
"Other than that? Nothing else … Oh, do you see those things hanging on the wall? "
Aurelia followed her line of sight and saw those white square boxes. She nodded and said, "I just wanted to ask, what are those things? They keep blowing out cold air, just like the frost magic circle in the palace. There are so many people in the room, but the temperature is quite comfortable. It should be because of them. "
"That is called the air conditioner. It was made by Tang En."
Parola smiled and said to Aurelia in a low voice, "Other than the air conditioner, he also fiddled with the toilet … If you are interested, you can go take a look in the toilet."
Toilet, toilet!?
Aurelia was dumbfounded. Why would Aunt Parola tell her about that filthy place?
However, thinking about what her father said to her, Aurelia's curiosity grew. After telling Parola, she really went to the toilet.
Then, half a small matter had passed since she left.
When she came back, Parola looked at Aurelia's red face and smiled. "How do you feel?"
"So strange …"
Aurelia's hand still had the fragrance of mint. She subconsciously covered her butt and her face was red. "It feels weird … But the paper prepared at the side and the things used to wash my hands outside are pretty good."
In fact, other than Aurelia, the other nobles also noticed the special things here. They were all asking each other what it was and what the two symbols in the pattern above meant.
At this time, Hilton, who had already been instructed by Tang En to hide in the crowd and disguise herself as a guest, fully displayed her specialty. She quietly revealed the signature products of the Datang Chamber of Commerce, the air conditioner, the toilet, the cheap and soft toilet paper, the white paper used for writing, and the mint soap to the nobles.
Thus, in this short period of time, the name of the Datang Chamber of Commerce successfully entered the circle of the upper nobles.
