rise of empire total war

Chapter 47 Cousin Sophia

A week later, a grand banquet to celebrate the victory of the war was held at Trichy Palace in Ravana City.

As mentioned earlier, all nobles and nobles of the kingdom were invited to the capital to participate in the party. During this period, the streets of Ravana City can be said to be full of nobles. If you throw a brick from the second floor, you may hit it A distinguished Earl.

Therefore, all the dandy boys in the capital were warned to restrain their arrogance during this period, otherwise they would end up messing with someone they shouldn't mess with.

At the same time, there are many people who take advantage of this opportunity to improve their relationship with other nobles. Richard, who is recognized as His Majesty's favorite person, has become one of the candidates to improve their relationship.

As Boris said, the best way to improve the relationship between nobles is marriage.At a young age, Richard was asked to marry by several nobles, but he rejected them all.

What surprised him even more was that Lawrence and Burris actually asked him if he was willing to marry their daughter, Richard's cousin.

Richard's cousin? ? ?

Irritation (cover nosebleeds)

Richard said that he did not want to go to the German orthopedics department, but the attitude of the two uncles was very tough, and they would hold on to him if he disagreed.In desperation, Richard had no choice but to use the dragging formula, saying that he would go back and think about it.

"The great King of Ravana, the ruler of the cities of Ravana and Bellport, and the lord of all the nobles of the kingdom, His Majesty Haraus has arrived!"

And at this moment, King Harolds, dressed in fine attire, walked into the hall with the help of his attendants. As soon as he stepped into the hall, thunderous applause began, interrupting Richard, Lawrence and others. people talking.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Richard moved his heels to blend into the crowd while applauding, and distanced himself from his two uncles. He had just walked a few steps when he collided with a figure, who let out a low scream and followed As he was about to fall backwards due to inertia, Richard quickly stretched out his arms and hugged the other party, thus avoiding the accident.

After Richard recovered, he was shocked to find that the person he was hugging was actually a girl with long yellow hair, and this girl seemed to have been seen somewhere in his memory.

"You..." Richard was about to ask, but the other party interrupted him first, blushing with shame, and whispered: "Can you let me go first?"

"Ah? Okay, I'm sorry." Richard quickly reacted, helped the blonde girl up, and then let go, "I was so sorry just now."

"No, nothing." The girl lowered her head and whispered softly. After a while, she quietly raised her head again as if observing Richard. She seemed to have discovered something extraordinary. She pointed at Richard, Some excitedly asked: "You, are you Richard?"

"Richard? If you're asking about Richard from the Kingdom of Winster, then I am." Richard was a little puzzled, but answered her question seriously.

"It's really you." The girl swept away her shyness just now, patted her small chest, and said, "My name is Sofia, Sofia Carrera, you should call me cousin."

"Cousin?" Richard was shocked. He looked at the girl in front of him who was obviously not yet fully developed. He couldn't connect her with his cousin. In his mind, the image of his cousin was almost the same. Stephanie looks like that.

"What? Don't believe it?"

"Ah, no, I just..." Richard opened his mouth to defend himself, but he suddenly didn't know what to say, so he could only shut his mouth in embarrassment and remained silent.

"If you don't believe it, you can go to my father now. My father is the Foreign Minister Burris."

Hearing what Sophia said, Richard couldn't help but recall the scene of being "forced into marriage" by Lawrence and Burris just now. He secretly wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and forced a smile: "I believe in you, I believe in you, There's no need to go find him."

"Why, I think you seem to be afraid of him?" Richard's reaction made her understand something. After thinking about it, she covered her mouth and laughed softly, "Did he tell you about our marriage?" thing?"

"How do you know?" Richard regretted it as soon as the words were out of his mouth. In his opinion, this kind of thing was not easy to accept, let alone mentioning it in front of the person involved.

"He asked me a few nights ago." Sophia still covered her mouth and snickered. After laughing enough, she looked at the crowd around her and said, "It's hard to talk here, let's go outside."

"Okay..." Richard had only time to say a word before he was forced to run out of the crowd by Sophia. After he stopped, he found himself in the garden again.

Is it possible that I am destined to have trouble with this garden?Richard wondered in his heart.

Regardless of what Richard thought, Sophia let go of the former's hand after arriving in the garden, and sat on the bench in the garden, observing her nominal cousin with interest.

After a while, Sophia spoke slowly: "Richard, I don't know what you think, my father wants to see us two get married."

"I can see that not only Uncle Burris, but Uncle Lawrence also wants me to marry Stephanie." Richard said helplessly, while sitting next to Sophia.

"What? Stephanie's share?" Sophia was taken aback for a moment, then became excited, her pair of beautiful big eyes fixed on Richard, "What did my father and the others tell you?"

"It's nothing. I just want to marry you two to me and see who I agree to marry..." Richard's voice became smaller and smaller, and a sudden chill ran down his back, just like an early warning signal.

"Then what's your answer?"

"I, I said go back and think about it..."

Sophia didn't listen to Richard's words, she folded her arms around her chest, her little face was puffed up, obviously she was sulking at someone.

"What's wrong with you?" Richard asked cautiously.

"Rain girl has no melons." Sophia said angrily, then stood up from the bench, took a few steps forward, then stepped back, facing Richard, leaned over and stretched her face to the back Only a few centimeters away, Richard could even feel her hot breath.

The heart, at this moment, was beating wildly.

"Let me tell you." Sophia said with a straight face: "You can only choose between me and Stephanie. If you dare to choose her, I will find someone to deal with you later."

After finishing speaking, she snorted coldly and walked towards the venue angrily.

Looking at her back, Richard sighed helplessly. He couldn't say in front of Sophia that she and Stephanie didn't want to choose, right?
