Chapter 46 Tea Party

The next day, Rong You and the others reorganized the clues at hand.

Regarding Fu Yu, what they now know is each other's family relationship: his father is Fu Qian, the Minister of Finance, his mother is a member of Dragon Blood named Xu, his friend Bai Han, his wife is dead, and the whereabouts of a son is unknown.

And what happened when he left the center of the empire: first he disappeared for half a month, then underwent plastic surgery, and smuggled to the S169 galaxy using cash, a fake identity and a boat ticket.Later, he changed his name to Xu, became the director of the Starlight Orphanage, raised a group of orphans including Rong You and Xu En, and married Camilla, and then died of illness.

What is certain is that he must have come into contact with a secret of the empire, so he would give up his happy family and promising career and leave resolutely.This secret may have something to do with Rong You's life experience, maybe it has something to do with Xu En, because they are the only two children who are inextricably related to Fu Yu and Bai Han.

Among these clues, the characters from the past have basically passed away, including Fu Yu, Fu Yu's wife, Bai Han, and even the butler of the Bai family and the black market plastic surgeon who were silenced.The plastic surgeon was still killed by a palace guard.

And the rest of the people, like Bai Yue, or Fu Qian, the Minister of Finance, are not the people they can touch casually now.

Fu Ding re-read the entire information and said: "We may have missed a key person, and that is Camilla. Camilla was in her 20s at the time. Since she decided to marry Fu Yu, she should know something about him."

"And Xu En." Rong You said, "Although we were all too young back then, he might not know everything. Now that I think about it, I have the same blood type as him, and the degree of matching of stem cells is so high, maybe It’s because there is a real relationship.”

The two looked at each other, Fu Ding was startled, and said, "Do you think that Xu En, like you, is also a child who was smuggled from the center of the empire? He even has potential dragon blood on him?"

"Not sure yet." Rong You pondered, "Yesterday I... I forgot to ask about Xu En and Camilla. At that time, Xu En was brought here for treatment by Prince Ming, and the imperial doctor said that he would not live long. I don't know if it's dead or alive now. If I have the chance, I will go to him and Camilla."

At this time, Shuanglou rolled up the things and said coldly: "These things have been discussed countless times. Tomorrow is the tea party for the princess. Have you learned all the etiquette?"

Rong You: "..."

The tea party held by His Royal Highness the eldest daughter was said to be a private banquet, but it was actually quite grand.Among the celebrities present to add to the fun, there was actually a Suzaku man, who was only responsible for performing two pieces of music.

Another very interesting thing is: in the fringe galaxies, such as the S169 galaxy, this kind of aristocratic gathering has very strict rules. It is said that the royal family will come as they usually come, and guests must wear formal attire , bring a female companion, walk through the prescribed door on the carpet; but in the center of the empire, the real eldest daughter of the royal family has no rules, her best friend has done the thing of showing up in sneakers, whoever the guests want to bring Anyone, as long as it's not too much.

Probably, those who have no status are always careful to abide by the stereotypes, while those who really have status can break the stereotypes generously.

Rong You originally wanted to bring both Shuang Lou and Fu Ding, because they are people who are very familiar with the high-level environment of the empire. If they take them, they can avoid Rong You's lack of knowledge on etiquette or unspoken rules. The most important thing is... ...The two of them complement each other, and they can just recognize most of the people who belong to the two camps of Prince Ming and Minister of Finance.

But Shuanglou said: "I have always been someone close to His Highness, and everyone on Longwei San knows this. If you take me there, it will reveal that you have a very close relationship with Your Highness—are you sure?" ?”

Rong You pondered for a while, and found that he really couldn't take Shuanglou to him.Fu Ding is different. The sons of the treasurer have always been with whomever has money, and the hints of their positions are not so clear.

Fu Ding said, "It doesn't matter, bring our military communicator, and communicate directly if there is any situation."

Rong You hesitated for a moment, and said: "His Royal Highness sincerely invites us, isn't it good for us to do this?"

Fu Ding and Shuang Lou said at the same time: "She didn't say that she can't bring a communicator."

Among the two, Fu Ding's tone was teasing, because he deliberately took advantage of the loopholes; but Shuanglou's tone was blank, because he really felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Fu Ding looked back at Shuanglou and sighed helplessly.

The next day, Her Royal Highness's tea party was indeed more casual and comfortable.

But that's just the feeling of the guests. When Rong You knew that the random carpet he was stepping on had been searched for all the endangered species on a planet a month ago, using several top designers and tailors to make it, and using sub-light speed When the channel sent it over, I was a little confused at the time.

Fu Ding is the son of the treasurer's family. After going out for a long time, he understands Rong You's astonishment quite well.

Then he leaned over and whispered in Rongyou's ear: "It's still good. You don't know Prince Ming, the teapot he usually uses is a national treasure given by Prince Suzaku. And his pair of glasses...that's the value Liancheng, don't look at the frame of the picture, which looks like a simple composite material, it is actually a tree planted by His Majesty the founding emperor. It finally died hundreds of years ago, and the last piece of healthy branch was sent to make a picture frame..."

After hearing this, Rong You's expression almost became weathered.Fu Ding didn't know, when Rong You climbed over the wall to find Prince Ming yesterday, he stepped on those glasses half maliciously... cracked...

The tree planted by the founding emperor! !

Rong You wanted to go back and offer up Rongqian's dragon ball, and burn incense to it every day to make atonement.

This tea party was held in the private garden of the imperial concubine. The nobles who were invited were obviously close people. They brought their families to enjoy the flowers and sat on the carpets. Several exquisite tea tables.

The queen is naturally the object of the stars.She is gentle and friendly just right, just enough to take care of every guest, making people feel like a spring breeze, and at the same time, she has completely connected this small social network in a calm manner.

When she introduced Rong You, she said: "This is a friend of mine, Rong You. He is not only handsome, but also decisive in his actions. Sometimes I admire his courage."

This is obviously flattering Rong You. The word "friend" points out their peer relationship, "decisive" means that Rong You has the power to make decisions, and the paragraph "admire his courage" implies that he can also contact people who are even more important than the princess. Gao's nobles - not the emperor, only Prince Ming remained.

With just a few words, Rong You also became the moon of the stars.

Rong You walked around twice among the visitors and met many people with Fu Ding, but unfortunately there was nothing familiar to him anymore.

When the tea party officially started, even the lady from the Fu family who performed the tea ceremony—a certain sister of Fu Ding—had someone to serve Rong You a cup first.This is to say that Rong You is today's chief guest, which makes Rong You feel flattered.It's a pity that he has a different tongue than Bai Han's tricky one, he can't taste the good or bad of tea, he can only smell the mild tea fragrance.

While the host and guest were enjoying themselves, another person came suddenly, and he was an old acquaintance of Rong You.

He is Xu En.

As the past few months passed, Xu En's condition seemed to be getting worse, but his spirit was very good.He was sitting in a wheelchair, and was pushed into the garden by a middle-aged man behind him. The ruts of the wheelchair directly pressed marks on the precious carpet.

"Sorry, I'm a bit late. Your Highness shouldn't mind, right?" Xu En said.

The princess said: "Since your health is not good, you don't have to force it."

Xu En said with a smile: "No matter what, His Highness still has to give face."

"..." Her Royal Highness the eldest daughter smiled politely, and did not continue speaking.

The corners of Rong You's mouth twitched upon hearing this conversation, and Fu Ding took a deep breath to hold back his laugh.

They heard someone next to them deliberately "whispering" muttering: "I'm laughing so hard, a mere commoner can actually say such a loud word, to give the Queen a face...does he think he is a duke?"

"Hey, he was personally sent by His Royal Highness Prince Ming, isn't he a big man comparable to a duke?"

The volume of the whispers was just right, and they failed to reach Xu En's ears.

Xu En didn't pay attention to the atmosphere of the scene. Seeing that Miss Fu's family was still at the tea table, he said, "Has it started yet? This tea looks good."

Everyone understood what he meant, but Miss Fu's family just didn't want anyone to bring him a teacup, she just stood there talking and laughing at Yan Yan, explaining tea art to the people around her.

Xu En was a little embarrassed, but he didn't know that these people did it on purpose, so he turned around asking for help.So the man who pushed the wheelchair for him stepped forward, apologized first, and took a teacup for Xu En.

Rong You noticed that this man was rather respected, and the lady of the Fu family even greeted him, which was vaguely a courtesy to the elders.

Fu Ding approached Rong You again, and said in a low voice: "This man is a palace guard, and he is the kind for many years. He wears a special bracelet on his wrist. But I don't know him, so he should be from His Royal Highness Prince Ming. , probably sent to protect Xu En."

When it was time to rest, Rong You took the real-time video to ask Shuang Lou.

Shuang Lou pondered for a moment, and said: "He is the great teacher of the palace guards. He doesn't show up often, and he is honored as 'Master Li'. Before I left, he was not on His Highness's side. In my impression, he It should be a neutral person, only loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."

Fu Ding was surprised and said: "How do you say this, could it be that His Majesty the Emperor sent someone to protect Xu En?"

Rong You said: "It's unlikely. From what those people said, they still think that Xu En is on Prince Ming's side, and they don't quite recognize his status. I don't know what's going on with this big teacher, but I'll ask Just ask Xu En and you will know."

"I'll go with you." Fu Ding said.

Rong You thought for a while, and said: "No, I can go alone. I had friendship with him when I was young, and I had contact with him again because of the hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, but later Prince Ming didn't agree with my donation, so I sent him He sent it over by force. I'll go up and have a private talk with him first, maybe he's still close to me. But if you're here, he might be wary of someone who is the chancellor to inquire about the news. "

Fu Ding is the son of the Minister of Finance, he can only say that he was born to stand in the hostile camp of Prince Ming, there is no way to do that, so Rong You had to pass by alone.
