For a long while, Yun Li grabbed his mind, pretending to be relaxed and teased, "I'm so afraid of me?"
"Well, I'm afraid." Li Qiao's magnanimousness caused an unspeakable sourness in his throat.
Three years ago, if it were not for Xiao Yehui, she would not have left the border.
If she does not leave, there may be endless possibilities in the future.
Now, he has no chance to fight alongside Li Qiao inseparably.
What he can do for her is to do his best in the contest between her and Xiao Yehui!
Yun Li looked away, his eyes were bloodshot, "Little boy, do you know how much inside information I can provide you by staying here? The cause of Xiao Yehui's mother's death, the relationship between the Xiao family brothers, and even I found this The manor dismissed all the servants decades ago, you..."
"I don't need it." Li Qiao gave the answer calmly. She fixedly looked at Yunli's dyed white hair, and said every word, "Your safety is more important."
For Li Qiao like this, Yun Li couldn't say anything to refuse after all.
He took a long sigh of relief and laughed at himself: "You really are not afraid of hitting my self-esteem at all, so sure I will be exposed?"
Li Qiao heard the compromise in Yun Li's words, and her expression softened a bit, "I just can't believe in the Xiao family."
Yun Li lowered his head and nodded a cigarette, smoked twice, and asked: "It's okay to follow you, but how did you get in?"
"Invited to attend." Li Qiao stood up slowly, "Change clothes and go to the front of the castle, and find the entourage of the Marquis of Lawrence."
Yun Li stopped smoking and said clearly: "No wonder I didn't see your names in the banquet list. It turned out to be the Marquis of Lawrence."
Li Qiao didn't stay long. She gave Yun Li the brooch and communicator hidden in her shoulder strap, and then left the stable stone house first after a few more instructions.
Yun Li stood near the grille window watching her walk into the night, looking down at the object in his palm, shaking his head and laughing.
His stubbornness and persistence are still so vulnerable in front of her.
……
Li Qiao returned to the castle courtyard along the original road. It took only 20 minutes before and after, which was smoother than she had imagined, and even gave her the illusion of being too smooth.
She suppressed the suspicion in her heart, reappeared in the courtyard, glanced at it casually, and saw Shang Yu sitting upright.
Li Qiao walked over with the skirt, under the dim light curtain, the man's cold expression gradually softened, pulled her arms, and raised her head slightly: "found it?"
Oh, he found it.
Li Qiao nodded calmly, "He will go with us tonight."
Shang Yu touched her cool wrist, got up and took off the suit and put it on her shoulder, "Let's go."
Five minutes before the banquet began, Li Qiao returned to the castle hall, faintly feeling that the atmosphere was not right.
Along the way, she didn't see the bodyguards and the Cavaliers, and even the guests who clashed with each other seemed a lot less.
It wasn't until entering the banquet hall that Li Qiao understood the ins and outs from their conversation.
It turns out that half an hour ago someone lost valuable jewels, and the bodyguards and Cavaliers team in the manor were sent to the front yard to help search.
The person who lost the jewels, lay councillor, Shi Luo.
The banquet hall, five long tables are placed in the hall, the standard noble high table dinner format, the servants are arranged in two rows.
According to the ranks of the nobility, the Marquis of Li Qiao and Shang Yu sits in the first row, and the opposite is Silo.
As an entourage, Gu Chen couldn't enter the castle. At this moment, he was squatting in the front yard, cursing resentfully by the lake and fountain.
As for Xia Siyu and others, the seats are at the fifth long table. Because they do not have the status of aristocracy, they can only sit in the guest seat.
A dinner is quite satisfactory.
Except for occasional toasts and drinks, the atmosphere is peaceful.
After the western desserts are over, the dinner is coming to an end.
The partition screen in the middle of the banquet hall was removed. Naturally, this type of banquet is indispensable for the social dance party of the European aristocracy.
When the melodious opening music sounded, Xiao Yehui, as the dancing guest, led a blond-haired and blue-eyed woman in a starlight flowing veil onto the dance floor.
In the eyes of Li Qiao, the aristocratic dinner is quite boring, and finally there are some unexpected signs.
Shen Qingye said that Xiao Yehui will announce the marriage partner tonight.
And the woman he was holding at the moment, the daughter of the second crown prince, Princess Margaret.
In the center of the dance floor, Xiao Yehui looked at Princess Margaret affectionately, and the two danced to the music.
At this time, Shi Luo cleverly came to Li Qiao's side, smiled and said to the dance floor, "My girlfriend, Princess Margaret."
Li Qiao was stunned, it was true... unexpected.
The dance was over, Xiao Yehui and two bowed in thanks, but they did not leave the stage.
Princess Margaret took the opportunity to hold his arms and met everyone’s gaze. Xiao Yehui said warmly: "Let me introduce this beautiful lady next to me. She is the second crown prince of Weston. Her daughter will also be the future Duchess of Childman and Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret."
The audience was in an uproar.
The marriage between the duke and the royal family can be called a strong alliance.
It’s no wonder that this year the Duke of Childman’s Mansion has invited guests to announce the marriage news.
This news will not come out tonight, and it will definitely be on the front page of the British Times tomorrow.
There are not a few people who congratulate on the spot. The seemingly congenial thanks from Xiao Yehui and Princess Margaret have become the focus of the evening.
Not long after, other nobles also entered the dance floor to dance, and Xiao Yeyan's female companion was Ye Jing.
The dance floor lasted for more than an hour, approaching 8 o'clock, everyone was invited to the castle platform of the Ducal Palace to enjoy the fireworks display of the Fireworks Festival.
The night is thick, Li Qiao and Shang Yu calmly climbed up the spiral staircase of the platform. At the corner, a figure with the Cavaliers slowly appeared.
Li Qiao had long known that she would meet on a narrow road, looked at Xiao Yehui with no expression, and in less than a second, she looked away.
Xiao Yehui's brows and eyes were as gentle as jade, he walked slowly, smiling unabated, "Marquis Lawrence."
Shang Yu's suit is still draped over Li Qiao, and the Windsor knot on the neckline has already been taken off. Even in a simple black shirt, his silent aura cannot be underestimated.
The man curled his thin lips, his eyes were as deep as the sea, "Master Xiao."
It is probably impossible for Shang Yu to call the Duke to give him a gentleman's salute.
Xiao Yehui did not hesitate about this, stood still with his hands held down, and responded with a smile: "I heard that before the death of the old Marquis, he gave up the position of the Marquis to his nephew, who turned out to be Mr. Shang. But... the old Marquis is pure. Westerners, the ancestry of foreign surnames does not seem to have a record of marriage with Chinese people. So Mr. Shang can become the successor of Marquis, it really surprised me."
Shang Yu pocketed with one hand, his deep eyes lifted, and a thin smile hung on his lips, "It's a great honor to surprise Young Master Xiao. The old Marquis must be very honored."
