Chapter 20 Sophie's Wedding

The rain was falling, Lantiao stretched out his hand, and the raindrops fell on the palm of his palm, slipping from the fingers, slowly and gently.It is really rare that there is such a delicate and lingering rain in the brutal weather of June.The noble ladies held various exquisite small umbrellas with lace trims, gently waved the velvet fans with larger decoration than practicality, and walked into the solemn and magnificent gate of Caesar Cathedral, talking and laughing.

Today is Sophie's wedding, to Marquis Freed's eldest son, Good Freed.To be honest, Blues is not optimistic about this marriage.The marriage was proposed by Sophie, who said it was love at first sight with Goode at the banquet. Marquis Frieder naturally would not miss this opportunity to have a relationship with Xiu, and immediately started preparing for the wedding.For a time, this matter became a good story in the upper class, and calls for a man with a talent and a woman's appearance, a match made in heaven, kept coming and going.The female appearance is real, but as for the talent, forget it, who doesn't know that Gude can barely see it with just one face.I don't know what Sophie saw in him.

"Aren't you afraid of getting sick if you get caught in the rain like this?"

Lan Tuo turned his head, and saw the neatly tied long hair, the dazzling silver made him a little dazzled.This is the first time he has seen Mei since he became a blue man, and it feels like a lifetime away.

"Mei, long time no see." Blue tune replied with a smile.

"Yes, child, you are much more cheerful now, and it seems that you have stepped out of the shadow of that incident."

"What's the matter?" Lan Tiao wondered, what would cast a shadow on him, thought for a while, and said with relief: "Did you say that Luo Yi betrayed me? It's okay, I've seen it for a long time, it was the last time in Bai At the mirror door... By the way, I saw you at that time, I lost my mind, and you called me back."

"Hundred Mirror Gate?" Mei frowned slightly, showing suspicion, "What Hundred Mirror Gate, where is it?"

"You don't know, is it true that you are just an ordinary person as he said?" Lan Tiao murmured, unable to believe it.

Back then, he disagreed with Xiu, and arrogantly boasted in front of Xiu, saying that he could find out Mei's true identity by himself.Originally thinking that Mei would definitely not deceive herself or anything, Mei has always been a holy, upright, and sincere existence in Lan Tuo's mind, and this kind of person is neither willing nor good at lying.However, seeing that Mei's expression and reaction are all normal now, and she doesn't see any flaws, her heart suddenly turns cold.Recalling Yixiu's haughty personality, he would definitely disdain such things as lying, so, is he wrong?However, Intuition Mei is not that simple, and Haikou has boasted about it. If such a result is really the case, wouldn't it be a joke for Xiu?Originally, what a powerful person Xiu is, losing to him would not be a shame, but when he thought of him saying some ambiguous and ironic words with a mocking smile, he couldn't swallow his breath. They are all men too, so why does that proud fox get the upper hand every time?

"Son, what are you talking about? If I'm not an ordinary person, what else can I be?" Mei smiled gently, and rubbed the rain-wet blond hair of Blues.Blues looked even more embarrassed by his actions, but Mei, on the other hand, was still elegant and holy, really unlike ordinary people.

The wedding went on as usual.Lan Tuo sat in the last row of the bench, watching the wedding that he was not optimistic about, and everyone's hypocritical and flattering smiles.I don't know why in my heart, but it seems like a thorn has grown, and I feel faintly uncomfortable.He didn't know Shu Shu very well, but seeing such an excellent woman marry an idiot like Gu De, he still couldn't help but feel sorry.Love, what kind of magical power does it have that makes people blind so far?

Looking around, she didn't see Mei.Mei is a priest, Blues thought he was here to officiate the wedding, but it wasn't.Not long after the wedding started, he left without a sound. It seemed that he had come all this way just to say hello and have a few words with Blues.Lan Tiao straightened his clothes and thought with some frustration: there really is no reason for such things as natural enemies.The only people in this world who are born to restrain him are Xiu.It seems that there is another rose.If it wasn't for the different surnames, Lan Tiao would have suspected that Mei and Xiu were actually brothers.

After the wedding was over, there was a banquet held at the Marquis's house. The couple surrounded the couple and walked out, saying some blessings and making some harmless jokes.Regardless of the private situation, at least on the surface at the moment it is still very harmonious.

Suddenly, the bride Sophie exclaimed in a low voice, covered her mouth with her hand and said, "Too bad, I forgot His Highness Xiu's order!"

Upon hearing the word "His Royal Highness Xiu", everyone within a radius of ten meters paused for a moment. Although they continued to do their own things, their ears were all pricked up.Relying on being the same woman as Sophie, the noble ladies surrounded Sophie and questioned her confidently.

"Madam is in trouble? Feel free to tell everyone."

"Ma'am, don't worry. Isn't our little marquis responsible for what happens?" Gude is the eldest son, and he will inherit the title sooner or later. It is understandable to say so.However, there was a faint suspicion of cursing the current marquis for his early death, and the atmosphere suddenly cooled down.The woman realized that she had said something wrong, her face turned as white as paper, and she didn't dare to speak anymore.

Sophie smiled softly before someone who cared about it made a fuss, "Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry, it's not a big deal. I'm married, so naturally I can no longer serve His Highness Xiu. The new housekeeper is young, so it's nothing to worry about." Experienced and not sociable, His Highness Xiu ordered him to take a look. If there is any offense in the future, please bear with me."

"Madam is too polite. There is no need to worry about it. Please ask that adult to take care of us."

"Hehe... You're joking." She raised her hand gracefully to interrupt those flattery words. In front of outsiders, Sophie had always presented an elegant and noble image.She looked around, and finally found someone hiding quietly in the corner.

"Master." Sophie called out in a low voice, walked quickly to Blues, and saluted respectfully amidst sobs of astonishment.

Oh my god, Sophie already has a very high status in His Royal Highness Xiu's residence, even ordinary nobles can't match her, but now she is so respectful to that person, then this person's status is evident.

As the crowd gathered around, they thought about flattery and flattery in their hearts.When I got closer, I couldn't even make a sound.The so-called new housekeeper was actually just a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy. He was quite handsome, but not stunning. His pure blond hair was unbelievably beautiful.Immediately, everyone had a consistent view on Blues' identity in their minds: child molestation.And he was so favored that even Sophie had to respectfully call him young master.

"Gentlemen and ladies." Sophie cleared her throat to call everyone's attention, and said, "This is my young master Blues, who will be the butler of the castle in the future. He is still young, please take care of him. "

Regardless of who Lan Tiao is, with his identity as a housekeeper, he must be a sycophant.

"Master Lantiao occupies a high position at a young age, and he will be a dragon and phoenix in the future." Goode changed his face when he saw Lantiao, and he spoke stiffly after a long while.

Lan Tuo smiled innocently, his emerald green eyes full of innocence, and he said softly: "Could it be that the butler is a high-ranking man?"

Goode's face turned pale, apparently he did not expect Lantiao to reply like this, and he wanted to say something more, but was refuted by Lantiao's next sentence.

Lan Tiao's smile is still innocent, just like the stars in the blue sky, with a fatal temptation in the innocence, he said: "Besides, is it possible that I am not a dragon and a phoenix now, and I have to wait until the future?"

boom!The people around turned black, how could there be such difficult people in this world?Being refuted by a child who is [-] years younger than himself, no one can laugh.With him as a lesson from the past, no one will say those flashy words anymore, and the blues are also happy and relaxed.Glancing at Gude provocatively, Lantiao walked away on his own. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned around and said with a light smile, "Why isn't the little Marquis leaving? Could it be that Sophie, who is married to our family with both talent and beauty, will marry him?" So happy that you even forgot the wedding banquet?"

How does this new butler speak with thorns?Gude looked at Blues contemptuously, a plaything that was favored for a while, how dare he be so arrogant?If you lose power in the future, you will definitely be asked to pay back a hundredfold!

I thought so, but I didn't dare to show it on my face.He just laughed and said, "Master, you're joking." Then he led the blues towards the banquet site himself.

The banquet went smoothly, and the difficult new butler didn't make things difficult anymore, and everyone who came to toast was politely accepted.It's just that he doesn't talk much, and doesn't have any smile on his face. He just drinks one cup after another, but he doesn't seem drunk.Only then did everyone realize that the new butler was not useless, at least he could drink well, he could be said to never get drunk after a thousand cups.

When the wedding banquet was about to end, Her Majesty the Queen sent a gift—Liuyun.This was originally the largest night pearl inlaid in the crown of Her Majesty the Queen. Legend has it that it is the tears of the sharks in the West Sea, which has the effect of beautifying the face and bringing the dead back to life.There are not many people who believe it, but no one really dares to experiment with this bead to determine whether the legend is true or false.Lan Tuo squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the past, a faint mist rose from his emerald green eyes, like a lake in a winter morning, with a faint morning mist, mysterious and elegant.

This bead is handed down from generation to generation by the royal family. It was given to the most trusted courtiers by each generation of emperors. After the death of the current emperor, the bead was taken back and inlaid into the crown again, and passed on to the next generation of monarchs.Therefore, no one in the entire empire, from Her Majesty the Queen to ordinary people, would dare to touch this bead.Of course, except Xiu.Lan Tuo felt that the main reason was that this bead had no effect on Xiu, otherwise it would have been gone long ago.

This was just a small episode, and the banquet ended on time.Blues left calmly amid admiration.He had only drank wine tonight, but the food on his plate hadn't touched at all; moreover, he drank so much that it was enough to make three burly men with good drinking capacity drunk, yet he didn't even walk in disorder , No wonder others are like this.

But the truth is, as soon as Lan Tuo walked into the guest room prepared for him, he didn't have time to take off his shoes, and fell drunk on the bed.

There was a slight fluctuation in the air, and then Xiu appeared in the room out of thin air.Looking at Lan Tiao, who was completely drunk on the bed, he couldn't help laughing.Where is this child who is not drunk for a thousand cups?It's just that the wine is so good that I have to find a bed to get drunk. In fact, I have already lost my mind.

I don't know what kind of expression will the group of people outside who blindly admire the blues' drinking capacity know about this reason?Sure enough, the truth of the matter is far less romantic than the matter itself!
