After I swallowed this wonderful " main course ", I began to taste the delicacies with obvious western colors. These delicacies were very different from the ones I had eaten before. I couldn't say that I especially liked them, but I didn't hate them either. I just wasn't used to them.
As the delicacies were served one after another, I also began toasting with those guys with ulterior motives.
Drinking wasn't my forte, and I lacked training in this area in the Imperial Capital. I was the princess 'personal knight, so I had to keep a clear head at all times to deal with emergencies. Therefore, I only had a sip at every cocktail party, so I might not even be able to hold my liquor as well as Lia.
But today, I didn't have any burdens. I finally had the chance to indulge myself and taste what it felt like to be drunk.
People often say,"A thousand cups of wine are few when you meet a bosom friend."”However, the guys in front of me obviously didn't meet the standard of confidants, so before I could drink three glasses, my face was already red. After drinking another glass, I felt my whole body heat up. On the fifth glass, I tasted the feeling of floating and being in a fog. I could have enjoyed "watching the sword while drunk", but no one appreciated it. Forget it, I'll just let myself be "intoxicated and not know the way back".
I poured the sixth cup of wine into my mouth. Soon, I was summoned by the God of Sleep and fell into a soft embrace.
Yes! The next day, I tried my best to open my hazy eyes. The sunlight that shone into my eyes reminded me that it was getting late.
After the hangover, I felt that something was wrong with my body. I looked around at the unfamiliar environment, but I couldn't remember how I got here. So this was what it felt like to be drunk. It didn't seem to have any benefits!
I shook my head and gently patted my face, trying to drive away the uncomfortable feeling, but it didn't seem to be of much use.
I circulated my unpracticed battle energy, allowing the energy in my body to flow through my meridians. My entire body emitted a golden light. Not long after, I realized that the uncomfortable feeling had left me. It turned out that battle energy had the effect of sobering up.
I wonder what effect it will have when I use battle energy when I drink in the future. I now understand why some people can drink a thousand glasses without getting drunk.
As I got up and got dressed, I familiarized myself with this luxurious bedroom that I had never been to before. I walked around the room and knocked on the door. Two beautiful maids walked in. Their hands were filled with toiletries. It seemed that they had heard the commotion after I woke up and dared to come in to help me get up.
I knew that this habit was very common among the nobles of the Empire, but I didn't appreciate their overly thoughtful care. In my opinion, I had hands and feet, so why would I go through so much trouble?
I asked them to put down those utensils and started to work by myself. The two maids looked at me strangely, probably not understanding why I was different from the other masters.
After dressing myself up, I got rid of the smell of alcohol and drunkenness, and instantly became that handsome young man with infinite charm.
From the two maids, I learned that this unfamiliar place was actually my liege's manor.
This is my place, my spirits are back, I haven't had breakfast
How was this breakfast? Xingchen was sleeping so soundly that she had forgotten the time. It was clearly lunchtime now!
I didn't expect this mansion to be as big as five of my viscount's mansions in the Imperial Capital. The pavilions and pavilions were arranged in an orderly manner.
There were already a hundred servants on the road. It was said that some guards were not in place yet, or else the number of people would have doubled.
"It's over. How much money do we have to spend in a day with so many people? This amount of money was probably equivalent to the expenses of a regular cavalry unit. This was too extravagant! How can I afford it!" I
He could not help but sigh.
I went back to the hall to eat. Fox rushed to me happily. Seeing my frown, he asked curiously,
"My lord, what happened? You're still not satisfied with such good treatment! We slept very comfortably yesterday. The room was huge, the bed was soft, and the quilt smelled nice…I never dreamed that I could enjoy such treatment in such a remote area!”
Then, he laughed sinisterly and secretly said to me as if he had understood something,"My liege, I know what you are thinking. This place is slightly inferior to Princess Lia's bedroom, but not every place has the 'Pearl of the Empire'! If Princess Lia doesn't know that you've let her down, none of us here can go back!”
"Damn it, what are you talking about! That's not what I'm thinking about. I'm thinking about our situation!”
He loudly reprimanded this guy whose mind was filled with romantic thoughts. He clearly knew how I treated the princess, but he still thought badly of me!
I have to quickly find something to divert his attention. Otherwise, this guy who has nothing to do might have some evil ideas.
"Fox, I didn't bring you here to enjoy yourself. Tell me, what do you think of the situation here? Who is the most suspicious person?”
Thinking of the tragic scene that day, I couldn't control my killing intent.
After hearing what I said, Fox understood my intentions. He put away his cynical look and fell into deep thought.
"It's still very unclear here, and I'm sure we'll have a lot of trouble finding out what happened.”
"That cavalry unit must have a close relationship with the people with power here. However, there has been no lord here for ten years, which means that there has been no power center for ten years. Therefore, there are many factions and the local forces are very powerful.‘
"It's very difficult for us newcomers to investigate through tough means. We might even be bitten by them. This place is very far from the capital!”
I looked at the young man in front of me (although he was a few years older than me, he should be considered young). What he said was very close to what I realized, but he ignored my advantage.
"That's the general idea, of course," I reminded him,"but you should also remember that I wasn't completely unprepared.”
"Do you know why my behavior has been very different from usual since I entered the city? Why have I never asked them to hand over their power?”
When you see a strong opponent, you will use 100% or even 120% of your strength to deal with him, but what if you face a weak opponent? Perhaps you will only use half of your strength or even less!”
"Moreover, there are many factions here, but this also shows that they are not an iron plate. Some people think of ways to attack other factions.”
"Perhaps we can throw them a very, very good bone. Then, they will definitely fight for it. At that time, they will have no choice but to curry favor with the owner of this bone!”
Fox has a wicked look on his face, but I like it.
"Smart, but you'd better set up an intelligence system for me as soon as possible. Only with a keen sense of smell can we benefit from it!”
"Didn't those guys send over a lot of valuable things? I'll give you one-third as your first investment. As for yourself…that big pearl looks good. It's a wonderful gift to trick girls. I wonder if you want it?”
At this moment, I probably wouldn't have any bright expressions.
After that, the large pearls aroused Fox's greatest enthusiasm. He immediately promised to make the system take shape in a month's time. As for what method he would use, it was to threaten and bribe with money. Or should I use righteousness and emotions to move him? That's not within my consideration.
In order to cooperate with this operation, I handed over nearly half of my guards to him, and my famous Eagle Eye system was about to start his first battle.
