Chapter 22

     “Those two guys are so bad-tempered, it’s really embarrassing to go crazy in front of so many ladies and ladies!”

    “That’s right, it’s probably the first time I’ve participated in the Royal Club’s dance, so I don’t have enough self-control.”

    Ji Yao looked at the reputation, and it turned out that there were four maids sitting at a table next to him, chatting so hot that it was hard for him not to hear.

    “This year’s dance party is very high-profile, it almost wiped out the unmarried men and women in the entire upper class of the imperial capital.”

    “Yes, even Admiral Antonio is here, and the organizers have really put in a lot of effort this time. Oh, even if you wear several layers of dresses, Your Excellency Admiral can’t hide the vigorous and majestic muscles underneath, It is said that he is still the holder of the highest record in the military pentathlon.

      Glasses, white robes, wild in gentleness, temptation in coldness… My God, I’m going to be out of breath!”

    “Hehe, let’s all let you, tonight’s protagonist is neither Admiral Antonio nor Sir Eugene, but King Louis the Great! Haven’t seen the daughter of the Earl’s family and the Speaker of Congress? Are all the jewels in the palm of your hand here, these two young ladies are rare beauties with distinguished status, but I don’t know which one will stand out tonight and capture your Majesty’s heart!”

    “I said, no wonder so many people came to this year’s dance, and the standards are so high! Your Majesty has been sitting on the throne of the fifth diamond king for more than 100 years, and tonight is finally going to be released tonight. Is it? Just thinking about it makes people feel both anticipation and melancholy. What’s the matter!”

    “Alas, who said no, His Majesty is also my dream lover! But I only dare to dream of spring and dream, but these two young ladies dare to take practical actions, really courageous, Aren’t you afraid of domestic violence by His Majesty?”

    “Your Majesty has both a prosperous appearance and the most powerful and richest man in the entire empire. Even if you marry him, you will still make money without losing money! It’s a pity that I’m just a maid. I’m also from a big family, so I’ll definitely be there too!”

    “It’s also…”

    “Then I…”

    Several maids echoed and sighed.

    Ji Yao was dumbfounded.

    After a while, the music stopped abruptly, the men and women on the dance floor immediately stopped dancing, and the guests chatting in the lounge area immediately got up and gathered around, waiting respectfully under the stage.

    “Come, come, Your Majesty!” The maids and other servants also stood up and exclaimed excitedly.

    Ji Yao followed and stood up, under the infection of the scene atmosphere, opened her eyes and looked curiously.

    After a while, a tall and straight man walked into the hall with a pair of long legs that defied the sky. Although he wore a silver mask on his face and could not see his facial features, his aura was still crushing. Pressure on all men and women at the venue.

    Across most of the dance hall, Ji Yao’s heart skipped a beat, as if someone beat a drum, and stared blankly at the one surrounded by the stars and the moon. The legendary Louis the Great.

    Is this the coercion from the top species?

    The emperor seemed to sense something, turned his head suddenly, and his line of sight was projected towards the small flower hall as if it were real.

    However, he only saw a crystal bead curtain and clumps of lush green plants, and he could not see the blurry figures behind him.

    Hundreds of princes and ladies of the imperial capital’s rich and powerful families all bowed and saluted the emperor.

    Louis looked away, raised his hand slightly, and his deep and mellow voice resounded through the hall, reaching everyone’s heart, “Everyone, please do your best, no need to be more polite.”

    The band played music again, and the atmosphere in the hall became light and cheerful again.

    “Hey, young man, I’m back.” A maid next to her giggled and waved her hand in front of Ji Yao’s eyes. Ji Yao scratched her head embarrassedly.

    The other one saw Ji Yao’s beautiful face, so he deliberately teased him, “Little handsome guy, don’t have any thoughts about the emperor, or you are destined to be sad and hurt. What do you think of my sister?”

    Ji Yao blushed instantly, he didn’t know how to deal with this kind of scene, he was a little stumped, “Yes, sorry, I, I already have someone I like.”

    Even if that person only exists in an absurd and ethereal dream, that counts as well, right?

    Seeing that Ji Yao was so bad, the maid couldn’t make fun of him any more, otherwise she felt too guilty and said “that’s a pity” and let him go.

    Ji Yao heaved a sigh of relief, sat back in place, and after wandering aimlessly in the hall, he still involuntarily fell on the man wearing the silver mask.

    A girl with a graceful figure in a big red tight mermaid skirt rolled up to the stage like a flame and boldly invited: “Your Majesty, I hope Helena will have the honor to dance with you. .”

    Almost at the same time, a girl in a retro white pouf came from the side with a graceful manner and took the initiative to extend a slender hand to the emperor, “Your Majesty, Elizabeth admires You have been a long time.”

    “Oops, I’m sorry, I didn’t put on my mask properly.” Another young man in a little silver dress exclaimed in a low voice, and then looked shyly and admiringly at Louis the Great on the stage, After losing the cover of the mask, the beautiful and androgynous face made many of the male guests look straight, “Your Majesty, maybe you can also consider me?”

    The maids were not too concerned to watch the fun, and they whispered.

     “Look, look, the famous scene is coming! Who do you think Your Majesty will choose?”

    “I bet on Helena from the Earl’s house! Sexy, charming and passionate, even a man is hard to resist!”

    “Then I choose Elizabeth from the Speaker’s house! Pure, elegant, dignified and demure, the queen has to choose this!”

    “Alan, the young son of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, is also very good. The overbearing emperor is infatuated with beauty. This is a knock on CP!”

     “No matter who it is, don’t be jealous and go crazy, or it will be too ugly to pull your hair and slap in the face in front of Your Majesty!”

    Everyone in the hall focused their eyes on the same direction again, wanting to see what choice Louis the Great would make.

    Under the eyes of the public, the man in the silver mask spoke without any disturbance, “I’m sorry, I already have a spouse, I’m just here to walk around tonight, I wish you all a good time .”

    After speaking, she turned around and left the ballroom regardless.

    Everyone: “…”

    After more than ten seconds, the pot was blown up from the hall to the small flower hall, as if a heavy bomb had been dropped.

    The only person present who was calm but a little surprised might be Ji Yao alone. After all, he has not been wearing it for a long time, and his feelings for Louis the Great are not as deep as those of the Alpha star.

    Helena, Elizabeth and Ellen were disappointed and embarrassed on the court, and they turned their heads and left.

    Antonio was still talking to a man in the ballroom, and Ji Yao was waiting in the small flower hall.

    At this time, a male guest wearing a mask and a white tuxedo entered the small flower hall suavely, swept around and walked straight to Ji Yao and asked, “You Evans?”

    Ji Yao stood up and made sure that he did not know the man, but the other party was also very popular at the ball just now. Except for Louis the Great, his popularity was comparable to that of Antonio, so he responded in surprise : “Yes, may I ask who you are?”

    “You don’t know me?” The other party looked at him, the ice-blue eyes behind the mask flashed an inexplicable gleam, he raised his hand and gave Ji Yao a snort, “It’s okay. , let’s find a place to have a drink, and you’ll know who I am later.”

    Ji Yao: “…”

    Strange, what does this person want to do for no reason? Besides, he had to wait for Antonio and couldn’t just walk away.

    Just as he was about to decline, Antonio came quickly, stood in front of him, and said in a less polite tone: “Sir Eugene, what are you and my entourage talking about?”

    Eugene withdrew his hand and said nonchalantly, “It’s nothing, I thought that the admiral’s entourage seemed to be very kind, so I just chatted a few words.”

    Antonio snorted coldly, “Really, do you want to sit at my house and have a good chat?”

    “Forget it, it’s getting late, let’s go to another day.” Eugene shrugged and walked away gracefully, blinking ambiguously at Ji Yao from an angle that Antonio couldn’t see before leaving. lower eyes.

    Ji Yao: “?”

    Antonio took off the mask and asked with a displeased face, “What did that guy just say to you?”

    Ji Yao said: “He said find a place to have a drink.”

    Antonio said angrily: “Don’t pay attention to him, that guy must have no good intentions! I forgot what I told you before coming?”

    Ji Yao innocently said: “I didn’t forget, you came when I was about to refuse.”

    “It’s about the same.” Antonio’s face improved slightly, “Let’s go.”
