The mage arrives

369 Grand Reception

His Majesty the Emperor didn't know what was brewing in Gordon's mind, he thought the mage was just displeased because Dellington hit his sister's idea.

"Since I mentioned the Eisenstein family and Durlington, let me mention two other things by the way. What happened in the small town of Cobre, and what happened to the royal envoy when they recovered the land in Clear Water City, I Reports have been received."

Seeing what Gordon wanted to say, His Majesty the Emperor raised his hand to signal him to be calm, and continued: "The Eisenstein family is indeed a little carried away, and these two things can be used to beat them. But you and Delington They are all heroes who repelled the orcs and cultists and saved the crisis in the north, so I don't want to see conflicts between the Freeman family and the Eisenstein family. And, this is also for your own good, Gordon. You and Xie Oona is a young man with a bright future, but now, the weak Freeman family has no way to compete with the Eisenstein family. Do you understand?"

Gordon bowed slightly: "Of course, Your Majesty."

Although Trajan Anduin valued Gordon very much, and even broke many conventions and granted him a vast land of [-] square kilometers, but now he also attaches great importance to Dellington.

His Majesty the Emperor, who didn't know the truth of the matter, didn't want a conflict between two equally outstanding young men.

Local nobles have considerable autonomy, and can even formulate their own laws in the fiefs without violating the imperial royal laws.Due to the accumulation of conflicts between the two nobles, they finally fought, and wars broke out from time to time.

And for these aristocratic wars.As long as the intensity is low and will not seriously damage productivity, the emperor will not intervene too much.

The strength between the Freeman family and the Eisenstein family.Indeed, the gap is huge, but this does not mean that Gordon will back down.Durlington shamelessly stole the honor, and cleverly created the established facts so that Gordon could not expose his lies.However, although there was no way to take off Dellington's gorgeous coat of "Hero of Freyton", Gordon was able to splash a layer of stains on this gorgeous coat that could never be washed off.

As for the revenge of the Eisenstein family afterwards?Gordon was not afraid.If the Eisensteins wanted war, Gordon would give them a doomed war.

After leaving the palace.Gordon returned to the residence where he was staying.

In the next few days, he finally spent a leisurely and comfortable life after experiencing a long life of adventure and fighting.

morning.Gordon would stay in the study, quietly reading the various books in the dimension bag, and finally took this opportunity to master the arcane specialty of "Arkhosian Quick Casting".

If summoned in the afternoon.He will bring his younger sister Xiona into the palace.Enjoy afternoon tea and chat with His Majesty the Emperor and his family.If nothing else, keep reading.

In the evening, together with Ms. Bishop and Donne, she accompanied Falia to deal with various nobles.

Aristocratic relations are also part of strength.Especially for the Antaello family, which was hit hard by the death of the Grand Duke, it is even more necessary to carefully manage interpersonal relationships.

Julian family, Bishop family, Lannister family.They were the three families that had the closest relationship with the Scepter Lord back then, and they belonged to a community of interests that advances and retreats together.Now Grand Duke Rob Antello has passed away.Many outlying nobles attached to the Antaello family were already facing disaster and went their separate ways.At the same time, there are also some nobles who once loyal to the Lord of Scepter are in the swing stage.The task of Gordon and the others is to help Faliya stabilize the shaky minds of these people.

The Julian family runs the most prosperous commercial city, Clearwater City, in the Northland.The Bishop family, based in the Green Gap Province, is rich in outstanding fighters, and has a deep relationship with the silver elves in the deep emerald forest.The mages of the Lannister family have emerged in large numbers, monopolizing the position of chief court mage.If these three powerful aristocrats are added to the rapidly rising Freeman family, the strength of the Antaello family is not too bad.

Although many of the current Freton nobles are dazzled by the dazzling halo of the greatly increased Eisenstein family, they want to embrace new thighs wholeheartedly.However, there are also some wise people who can clearly see that although the Antaello family has declined sharply now, their core strength has not been damaged, and there is still a lot to do in the future.

It is precisely because of this that after a few nights of running around, Gordon and his party have reaped good results, stabilized people's hearts, and obtained a promise from a considerable number of nobles to remain loyal to the Antaello family.

After experiencing the feasting and noisy banquet, Gordon returned to his residence, and in the dead of night, he began to prepare for the approaching victory celebration, as well as the contest between his sister and Durlington.

His plan is being steadily realized step by step.

…………

Days passed, and the night before the victory celebration, His Majesty the Emperor specially held a grand reception at the Anshalin Palace in the suburbs.

If the victory celebration is a festival for the entire Freyton people, then tonight's reception is a gathering exclusively for the upper classes of the empire.

In the night, a cloud of luxurious carriages flocked to the square in front of An Xialin Palace.The aristocratic family crest engraved on each truck has a glorious and long history, representing a recognizable surname.

A four-horse carriage was galloping on the avenue, and the noble carriage driving on the road saw the family crest on the door of the carriage—a platinum scepter against the background of towering snow-capped mountains, and immediately voluntarily moved out of the way.This is not a fear of the power of the Lord of Scepters, but a respect for the heroes of Freidun who gave their lives.

Under such treatment, Gordon and his party came to An Xialin Palace without hindrance.

The sorcerer got out of the car first, then turned around and raised his hand, holding a small white hand protruding from the car.

A warm and soft feeling came over, but there were slightly rough calluses on the knuckles—this was the mark left by long-term use of the sword.

"Sister, should you do regular hand care?" Gordon said with a casual smile.

"No need." Xiona got out of the carriage with Gordon's support, and then naturally took her brother's arm, "I'm a warrior, not those dainty young ladies."

But although unlike those aristocratic ladies who devote most of their energy to maintaining their beauty all day long, Xiona tonight can still overwhelm most of the women attending the party with her natural beauty.

She was wearing a white and elegant dress, and her temperament changed. She was really pure and beautiful like an angel.As soon as I got out of the car, I don't know how many people's eyes I have attracted.

Hearing his sister's words, Gordon showed an expression that he knew this before, and then took another slender and beautiful jade hand.

Also weak and boneless, also with calluses on her knuckles—whether in appearance or dedication to martial arts, the young Grand Duchess is no worse than Xiona.

However, unlike Xiona who stepped down from the carriage generously, with Gordon's support, Faliya walked down slowly, looking a little awkward.

The reason is the clothes on her body.

The girl is wearing a silver dress that matches her hair color today. The simple style fits her personality, and the waist design can also maximize the feminine curves.However, although the front of this long skirt is made of conservative materials, the back is boldly hollowed out, showing half of the Grand Duchess's white, smooth, and curvaceous back.

After Rob Antello passed away, Faria grew up at an astonishing speed.In the process of dealing with many nobles in the imperial capital during this period, her communication skills have improved rapidly, and she is no longer the Orlandos girl from Daxue Mountain who doesn't understand the rules of noble society at all.

When Ms Bishop chose the dress for Faliyah, she reluctantly accepted it after much persuasion.But it still makes her uncomfortable to appear in this long dress in front of everyone.

Gordon could feel the slight trembling in Faria's hand, and he comforted: "Faria, my respected Grand Duchess, be confident and relax. You are beautiful tonight, and that is enough."

"Yes, Falia, this dress suits you very well, don't mind it anymore. You will return to the Northland tomorrow, so you can relax tonight." Xiona also said.

Falia looked at Gordon, and for some reason, the faint smile of the mage gave people a sense of peace of mind, and the anxiety and discomfort in her heart disappeared.She nodded, then took Gordon's arm like Xiona.

Looking at the two dazzling young girls on the left and right, Gordon said, "If you are like this, I will be the one who is cursed and envied by many men tonight."

"Indeed, among the men who curse and envy you, count me in."

Mr. Don Lannister and his fiancée Miss Helen Julian got off from another carriage, and then joined Gordon.He glanced at Xiona, with a look of admiration in his eyes: "Miss Xiona, it's a good thing you don't often attend receptions, otherwise all the men in Freyton will be so fascinated by you that they won't even think about eating or drinking."

Xiona smiled: "Mr. Dorn, you should leave these compliments to Miss Helen."

"Don't worry." Don patted the back of his fiancée's hand, "Helen is not too careful to get angry when I praise other women."

He looked at Faliya again, his eyes lit up, and he praised: "Dear Grand Duchess Faliya, tonight your light will overwhelm the combined lights of all the magic lamps in the city."

"Ah."

Faliya's cold response made Don smile awkwardly.It seems that although the Grand Duchess has changed a lot, she still has a big prejudice against Mr. Dorne Lannister.

After a brief conversation, five people walked into the palace.

Gordon didn't take much interest in the dinner, just stood in the corner, chatting with a few friends.The purpose of his coming to An Xialin Palace tonight was to cast the five-ringed pink spell "Seed of Blessing" on the queen. (To be continued..)
