Law of the Devil

According to the so-called tradition, the first dance music was exclusively shared by Du Wei and his female partner. So the people in the hall consciously stood around and gave way to the middle.

Du Wei gently put his arms around the Marquise Liszt, and the two danced to the music. Although he was not favored since he was a child, Du Wei has been educated in aristocratic etiquette after all, and he is also extremely skilled in this kind of aristocratic dance. What surprised him was that the Marchioness of Liszt seemed to be a little reserved, but as the rhythm of the cheerful music accelerated, her body became lighter and lighter. With the hem of the skirt, the whole person is like a blooming flower. And the fragrance on her body is obviously some kind of precious spice, which is elegant and fresh, making people intoxicated by the smell.

The two embraced and danced like this. Du Wei gradually couldn't keep up with the pace of the Marquise Liszt. Fortunately, the Marquise was very smart, and she changed her body a little bit, and replaced Du Wei quietly. The position of the lead dancer is invisible to those standing by.

Unknowingly, the two have gotten closer and closer, talking in low voices at the same time.

My lord, why don't you invite other single ladies? It's not a gentleman's behavior to use me as a shield.

Du Wei smiled slightly and said in a low voice: Marquise, you really misunderstood me. Among the many ladies present, who is more beautiful than you? Can you invite a noble and beautiful lady like you Dance with me, today's adulthood ceremony will become an unforgettable memory in my life.

The Marquise Liszt had never heard such compliments in her life, and she didn't care. He just smiled lightly, but deliberately leaned over and whispered in Du Wei's ear: I have to say, you are really cunning.

Du Wei curled his lips and simply gave her a default.

He really didn't have much to do. Just now, he hurriedly heard about this so-called tradition from old Made, and he understood that this first dance was used to show love.

You know, although every nobleman officially comes of age at the age of fifteen, which man from a wealthy and noble family has not already enlightened at a young age? But it is not unusual for the children of wealthy families to live among the many beautiful maids in the family when they were young, and some of them are already 13 or 14 years old. And this kind of adult etiquette to show love is also a traditional procedure.

Of course, some people do it for safety reasons. If you are not completely sure, you will not really ask your favorite woman to dance in public at this kind of ceremony, otherwise, if Lang has a love concubine and has no intention of being rejected in public, it will be hard to face . Therefore, if they are not fully sure, many men will choose to invite their sisters or friends in the family to dance, which not only conforms to the traditional procedures, but also does not cause embarrassment.

Du Wei invited Mrs. Listerhou to dance, which coincided with this custom unknowingly. Although there are quite a few ladies present today, only the Marquis Liszt has the most safe identity, because even if Du Wei invites her to dance, others will not really think that the young duke will be with the famous empire. The widow sparked something. Although Mrs. Liszt has good looks, after all, there is a big difference in age between the two, and since the Marquis Liszt has been a widow, I don’t know how many people have thought of her. It is even heard that even the Emperor is interested in this beauty I had some thoughts and was rejected. The Marquise Liszt even left the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital for this reason and hid back in the Liszt family's hometown to avoid suspicion.

Many guests present saw Du Wei inviting the Marquis to dance, but most of them just smiled kindly, thinking that the Duke, the Magician, probably didn't have any beloved woman or confidante, so they just invited the Marquis temporarily to make up the number. . Some of them were careful, but they wanted to report to their master after they went back. The duke was still single. If he wanted to win over the hottest dignitary in the empire, marriage would definitely be an excellent choice.

Not to mention the many thoughts of the spectators around, Angel has already quietly retreated to the edge of the hall, leaning against the dry wall powerlessly, her delicate face is pale, but her hands are tightly holding her skirt, her nails are deep into the palm of his hand. Muse stood beside her sister, saw it, secretly held Angel's hand, and said in a low voice: Sister, how about I go back with you..

Angel bit her lips, the tears in her eyes endured and endured, and finally fell down.

Fortunately, she was standing in a remote place, and no one else saw her, but Muse saw it, took out a white silk handkerchief from her arms, and handed it over, whispering: Sister, you also saw it yesterday, this guy seems to be Already have a lover, besides, what's so good about him? I don't think this guy is a good thing, hmph...

Angel's face darkened, and then she sighed: Muse...you, accompany me back.

The atmosphere in the hall was thick, and the pair of siblings quietly left behind the crowd. Muse supported Angel, excused that she was not feeling well, and went out through the side door before the first dance ended.

;

The last note came to an abrupt end, and the body of the Marquis Li Qiette spun lightly, and then suddenly fell gently into Du Wei's arms. Her waist seemed to be full of flexibility, and she leaned back vigorously. , but still able to maintain balance, under the V-shaped deep-neck evening dress, the plump and round chest skin, with an ivory color, is seductively squeezed together, forming a dazzling gully as the chest pants . Du Wei dragged one hand under the Marquise's waist, as if he was lying on him. Suddenly, he saw a hint of teasing in the Marquise's eyes...

The applause sounded, and everyone gave warm applause to the young duke in the arena. The completion of this dance symbolized that the young dignitary had become an adult in the name of the law. Mrs. Liszt finally stood up. Although she has superb dancing skills, she is a woman after all. After exhausting her physical strength, her pink face was full of blush, and her breathing was even more alluring. Suddenly, she was in front of everyone. , took a step, and almost stuck the front into Du Wei's arms.

Then, the famous lady of the empire suddenly made a move that surprised everyone!

She actually reached out her hands, held Du Wei's cheeks, and then whispered in a voice that only Du Wei could hear: Your Excellency, do you know that this is the first time since my husband passed away in the past few years? Dance. To thank you for your invitation, and...according to tradition, I would like to make a request of 'adult etiquette'...don't refuse, this is also tradition.

After finishing speaking, the marquise suddenly walked up, and before Du Wei could react, her fragrant lips were already gently pressed against Du Wei's lips!

The applause of the audience seemed to be cut off suddenly by an invisible pair of scissors! Everyone stared blankly at what happened on the field, and some even raised their hands and forgot to put them down.

yes……

It's A Kiss of Love! !

Everyone was stunned! According to tradition, the first dance in adult etiquette is regarded as a dance of love. If the protagonist invites his beloved woman, then after the dance is over, the woman can send her a kiss to express her acceptance of the other party. Mind!

If you are not a couple, then a simple kiss on the face is all you need.

But... the goddess who haunted so many people in the imperial aristocratic circle actually gave Du Wei a love kiss in public! ! ! ? ? ?

Just now, people who thought that the duke was just inviting Mrs. Lister to make up the numbers all had serious doubts about what they thought just now! ! If it's a matter of making up the numbers, all you need is a kiss on the face... But now, Mrs. Liszt is sticking to Du Wei's arms and kissing Du Wei's lips like a little bird!

What was originally just a moment of a kiss seemed to have become so long. As for Du Wei, before he even had time to push Mrs. Liszt away, the other party had already finished everything, and then took a step back gently.

I'll wait for you in the garden. The Marchioness whispered in Du Wei's ear.

;

This kiss from the Marquise Liszt completely disrupted Du Wei's plan. At the next banquet, the Marquise Liszt left early on the pretext of being unwell. But Du Wei was under the surprised or envious eyes of the surrounding guests. Very uncomfortable.

Everyone knows that there are countless men in the imperial aristocratic circle who regard this Marquise Liszt as the lover of their dreams. However, this widowed beauty never pretended to any man, but today she actually made such an astonishing move in public... The way this young Duke treats women is really amazing!

Du Wei is hard to say. However, he understood that if this matter spread, at least for a long time, his name would be inseparable from the Liszt family... Maybe this is what the Marquis wanted? .

The prom that followed. Du Wei didn't participate either, leaving many guests behind, but the host had already sneaked away.

Du Wei said that he was not very clear about his current mood. Besides being surprised, he was also faintly annoyed. He felt that he had been teased a little by the Marchioness. However, after slipping out of the banquet hall, it seemed that he came to a garden behind him naturally.

The garden was designed by Du Wei, surrounded by a circle of transparent greenhouses. In the open space in the middle, several flower beds were planted. Because Du Wei has always disliked flowers with too strong fragrance, in the garden, Du Wei chose the totem of his new family: tulips.

The evening wind blows, and among the golden tulip flowers, there is a beautiful figure hidden in the middle, with soft hair and a long evening dress like mercury pouring down the ground, who is it not the Marquise Liszt?

He walked over slowly, coughing lightly.

The Marquise turned her head, and there seemed to be a smile on her face.

The Marquise. Du Wei frowned, his voice inevitably a little heavy: I think I need an explanation.

What? The Marquis smiled lightly.

Just now. There was no emotion on Du Wei's face, he just walked in front of her quietly.

The Marquise seemed to think sideways on purpose before she smiled and said, Your Excellency, just now I just remembered that you invited me to dance the first dance of love in your life in public, and I accepted your invitation. Finally, I According to the tradition, I reciprocated my heart...isn't that the case?

Du Wei was speechless, but looking at the woman's cunning eyes, Du Wei suddenly felt angry: Marquise, I think it's better to tell the truth...we all understand what happened just now. Something happened.

The Marquise suddenly raised her hand and gently brushed her hair. Under the moonlight, her eyes were bright and frightening, and she suddenly sighed quietly: My lord... Could it be that in your eyes, I Is it an unattractive woman? Or, do you think that a woman of my age is not worthy of your noble status? Or do you think that what happened just now is a kind of stain on you?

Du Wei finally couldn't continue to keep a straight face, and smiled wryly: The Marquis was joking. With your stunning appearance, how can you be unattractive? Although I was young, when I first saw you, I was almost in love with your beauty. It’s frightening. However, I feel that your actions just now exceeded my expectations... I asked myself that there is nothing special about me that deserves the favor of a goddess like you?

My lord duke, you are underestimating yourself. Mrs. Liszt's face suddenly became serious, her eyes flickered, she stared at Du Wei's eyes, and then said slowly: Your youthful appearance has already shocked the mainland. It is a rare case that you have been named a duke at the age of 10, and you have run through the empire. It is even more rare that you are an outstanding magic genius. The Academy, the establishment of the Magic Society, and the Magic Union are equal to each other, creating a precedent in a generation! And seeing that you have been in the Northwest for just a few months, you have already flourished, and a series of handwriting is even more miraculous! In my opinion, the empire is now Among the rich and powerful families of the present, none of the heirs can compare with you. What's more, you are still young, and it is time for you to expand your ambitions. In my opinion, within fifteen years, you may be able to become In the empire, one person is less than ten thousand? No one in the history of the empire has been able to become a prime minister before the age of thirty, but I think with your current momentum, it is very possible to break this record.

Du Wei kept his composure and said with a faint smile: Madam, your words of praise really make me a little ashamed. Is it a bit too exaggerated for you to say that I am so great?

I don't think it's far enough. The Marquise smiled charmingly, stretched out her bare hand to gently grab a flower branch, and then gently brushed her palm on the flowerbed, and walked slowly in front of Du Wei, the distance between the two was less than half Step away, the breath of this beauty seemed to blow directly on Du Wei's face: In my opinion, your achievements are probably many times greater than what I said.

A trace of confusion flashed in Du Wei's eyes, and then he stepped back half a step cautiously, turning his body sideways: Oh?

Du Wei. The Marquis suddenly changed her address and called out Du Wei's name directly, which surprised Du Wei a little, and then she whispered: It's only been a short time since I owed your life-saving grace to me last year. In half a year, you have already skyrocketed from being an unfavored child in a family. Don't these explain the problem?.

After a pause, she said in a low voice: And... the behavior I did just now tonight has actually greatly violated my usual rules of conduct... It's just that time is not waiting. At that time, I had to do something what.

Du Wei smiled and stared at Mrs. Liszt.

You are a very smart person, I think you should understand what I mean by sending Angel to the Northwest. Mrs. Liszt said about her sister, a look of sadness flashed in her eyes: My sister, although she looks like Gentle, but very persistent in her heart. She has been high-minded since she was a child, and she doesn't like any of the young talents in the wealthy family. But born in Liszt's family, the fate of a woman like us is always I can't help myself. When I was young, my father married me, and I couldn't resist. But now...

There was a hint of sadness in her tone, and her voice lowered: I can't bear to let her repeat my mistakes, although for the sake of the family, she always wants to marry the most suitable person who can bring the greatest benefits to the family But I have never forced her to do anything. Fortunately, your appearance, I thought it solved one of my biggest problems. Your identity and current status can be said to be the most suitable and excellent marriage for our Liszt family And Angel is also very fond of you. When you were at home, your legendary experiences were often mentioned by her... I thought this might be the best way. So I brought her to the Northwest... ...I originally thought that with Angel's beauty, few men in this world would be able to resist her... But I never thought that she fell in love with you at first sight, but you...

Having said that, Marquise Liszt smiled wryly and shook her head.

Du Wei's expression was calm: This kind of thing can't be forced... And he felt a little dumbfounded in his heart: Your sister can't like me, but you came to ask me... What kind of reason is this?

The two looked at each other in silence for a while, and the Marquis Liszt suddenly asked, Du Wei, what do you think of me?

Du Wei was taken aback.

However, the Marquis of Liszt has already continued by herself: I have received strict education from my father since I was a child. I dare not slack off in a day. Although I dare not say how deep the talent is, those so-called scholars with great reputation, I Not many people can see it. Although I was married once, I don’t love my husband. Although he loved me very much, after passing away early, he left me a rich inheritance. I have a prominent title of nobility. Over the years, I have inherited my father's real estate business and painstakingly managed the family business, which can be regarded as quite successful. The property passed down by my father has more than doubled in my hands...

Du Wei didn't understand the meaning of this beauty's words, so he just kept silent.

I'm thirty-one years old this year. Speaking of this, a slight worry flashed across the Marquise's face, but then she smiled again. This smile, even in the tens of thousands of flowers at this moment, the charm of that smile has already overwhelmed those delicate and beautiful flowers around. I can only see the eyes of this beauty, she is really indescribably beautiful, and there is a trace of self-pity in her voice , said softly: Fortunately, the gods favored us and gave our Liszt family people beautiful faces. The blood of our Liszt family has always had an excellent appearance. The god of time has also given me a special gift. Although I have I am getting older, but it has not taken away my youth. I ask myself, although I am already thirty years old, but in terms of appearance, I will definitely not lose to any woman in this world.

Du Wei couldn't help sighing, and said sincerely: Yes, you are indeed a rare beauty in my life.

What Du Wei said was the truth, no matter from any angle, this beauty is shockingly beautiful and impeccably beautiful! Even her seemingly casual gestures, frowns and smiles are full of infinite charm. Although that Miss Angel was said to be as beautiful as Mrs. Liszt when she was young, she was still too young after all, far from the elegant and mature style of the beauty in front of her. What's more, although it is said that she is over 30 years old, there is no trace of age on this Mrs. Liszt's face and body? When Du Wei saw her for the first time, he thought she was only eighteen or nineteen years old at most.

The dream lover of countless nobles in the empire really lived up to the name.

Hearing Du Wei's confession, the Marquise Liszt rolled her eyes, smiled slightly, and looked sideways at Du Wei: Then, Du Wei, will a man like you be tempted by me?.

... Du Wei was taken aback, and subconsciously said, What?

I said, would a man like you fall in love with me? Following this soft question, the Marquise Liszt had slowly approached Du Wei, her movements were as gentle as the wind, and she had almost stuck to Du Wei's body. body.

Du Wei forced a smile: Madam, you are joking.

What if I'm not joking? The distance between the two of them was so close that their noses were almost touching their noses. I don't know why, but Du Wei couldn't help but feel a bit of whimsy in his mind when he saw such a beautiful woman standing in his arms. He was about to stretch out his hand to push him away, but he seemed a little bit reluctant. Looking at this beautiful woman so close, I can truly feel the charm of her extremely delicate facial features, the eye waves like autumn water, and the faint fragrance of Ruoyuan on that delicate body... …

I can guarantee that I will be the wife that any man dreams of. The Marquise Liszt's voice was soft and soft, as if whispering something in Du Wei's ear: I understand what I should understand, and I shouldn't understand Yes, I understand too... If a man wants me to understand something, I will pretend not to understand it...

Du Wei only felt that his throat was a little dry and his heartbeat couldn't help but a little faster, but fortunately he was still rational, took a deep breath, pinched himself secretly, and then woke up, looking at Marquis Liszt Ma'am: Ma'am, what do you want to tell me?

Marriage proposal. The word that came out of the Marquise Liszt's mouth lightly almost scared Du Wei and jumped up!

I, Lan-Liszt, propose to you, Duke Duvey Rudolph. This stunning beauty was obviously not joking, because although she smiled so charmingly, her eyes were very clear and serious!

I hope to be your wife, Your Excellency the Duke.

;

This time, after being stupefied for a long time, Du Wei jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on. Fortunately, he did not exclaim in alarm because of his patience, but the expression on his face was already shocking beyond concealment. up.

To be honest, even if this woman told Du Wei that she actually came from time travel, it might not shock Du Wei even more!

Beg, propose?! Du Wei wondered if he was dreaming: You propose to me?

Yes. The Marquise Liszt nodded, I am proposing to you.

Du Wei wanted to laugh, but looking at the serious eyes of the other party, he couldn't laugh, and suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart: Are you serious?

In my thirty years of life, I have never been more serious. The beauty nodded slightly.

Du Wei finally stopped laughing. He realized the seriousness of the problem!

refuse?

Are you kidding me... The number one beauty in the imperial aristocratic court proposes to herself. If she still refuses and spreads the word, she will probably be slobbered by those ministers under Mrs. Liszt's skirt in less than three days. drowned.

Are you saying the ages don't match? Du Wei knew that although the other party was thirty years old...but if he calculated according to his two lives, his actual age might be older than the other party's!

Think the other party is old? But this woman looked left and right, looked up and down, and looked like a stunning young lady! If you don't know her real identity, people will believe that she is eighteen years old!

Do you think she has a bad background? Just kidding... The other party has so much money that he can kill someone!

Dislike her for marrying once? If such words were said, even Du Wei himself would feel a little guilty. He has never been the kind of layman who flaunts chaste women.

Moreover, it is obvious that the other party raised this matter with a very serious attitude and sincerity. No matter from any angle, Du Wei must answer with respect! This is the basic bottom line!

Since the other party is not joking. Then this kind of big event, I can't treat it with a child's play attitude. What's more, the identity of the Marquis Liszt is not an ordinary person!

After pondering for a while, Du Wei's attitude became serious, he coughed, and took a few steady glances at the woman: Frankly speaking, I'm really surprised...and, no matter what, to get such an honorable honor from you It is a great honor for me, Du Wei, to be favored by Ms. Di!

So, do you accept it? Or refuse?

It's not easy to answer this question with yes or no, so Du Wei thought for a while before saying tactfully: Ma'am... I already have a woman I love.

To Du Wei's surprise, the Marquise Liszt smiled lightly: I know, it's that beautiful female magician, right?.

Yes, that's her. Du Wei heaved a sigh of relief: She is my beloved girl.

However, if I tell you, I don't mind? The Marquis Liszt blinked: With your status and identity, it is of course impossible to have only one wife like ordinary people. Although the imperial law only It is allowed to have an official wife, but I don't think a man of your status should be bound by this kind of law. In fact... if you agree to my marriage proposal, I don't care if you continue to pursue your love...you Look, I just said that I am a smart woman, if a man doesn't want me to know some things, I will pretend not to know very well.

After saying this, this woman is very smart to know. Now is not the time to force Du Wei to answer immediately. If you press the question too closely, it will be bad. She stepped back cleverly, and finally let the seductive body leave Du Wei - which made Du Wei heave a sigh of relief.

Please consider my request carefully. The Marquise's tone didn't sound like she was talking about marriage, but like talking about business: I will be the best wife, and... I am willing to give up my surname for you, marry into your family and change your surname... Moreover, once you marry me, in your future career, the Liszt family will unreservedly serve as your most loyal and steadfast supporters!

After finishing speaking, the beauty bowed gracefully to Du Wei, then smiled lightly, and drifted away. Only Du Wei was left, staring at the tulips in the garden in a daze...

Damn it, it's just a dance, and it caused trouble... If I had known, young master, I would rather jump into a river or a building than dance!
