Alien Empire Total War

Chapter 198: court banquet

"Let's toast to His Majesty Emperor Charles Close!"

"cheers!"

"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!"

"..."

In the Sona Palace in Ankerton City, the lights were bright at this time, and the guests gathered, and the neatly dressed servants walked among the guests, pouring sweet wine into each empty wine glass.

In addition to the National Assembly, oh no, it should be called the Senate now. In addition to all the members of the Senate, most of the nobles and well-known wealthy people living in the Ankerton region were also invited. They are well aware of this. It's a good opportunity to broaden your network, and they have put on expensive dresses that they are reluctant to wear on weekdays for themselves and their families, and want to take this opportunity to climb a thigh.

Those Huaichun girls who have not yet married also attended the banquet with their parents. They also put on gorgeous dresses and put on heavy make-up. Lang Jun.

The most eye-catching focus of this banquet is undoubtedly Charlie Close himself. He has also become the target of those pregnant girls. Charlie has never had a marriage contract with anyone else so far, as long as he can climb onto Charlie's bed and fly to the branches Turning your head into a phoenix is ​​no longer a daydream.

Of course not everyone is thinking about climbing into Charlie's bed, some very self-aware teenage girls didn't go to fight with the ambitious girls, but instead, they set their sights on other suitable age groups to attend the banquet together. Young people, looking at how happy they are talking to each other, maybe there will be several happy couples after tonight.

The focus of this banquet, the people who were talked about did not appear in the venue, and the noisy living room did not affect Charlie. At this time, he was standing in the dressing room some distance from the living room, accepting the servants as him. The act of arranging his clothes, as an emperor from the army, he did not put on the cumbersome and trivial robes, but wore a simple and heroic white military uniform.

Just then, the door of the locker room behind him was knocked from outside, and Sandy's voice came in.

"Your Majesty, are you ready? Your family has already arrived, and it's time for you."

Charlie responded and signaled that the servant didn't need to continue. He turned around and walked out of the locker room, and saw Sandy, also dressed in formal clothes, outside the corridor.

The latter bowed respectfully to Charlie, and then said: "Your Majesty, everyone in your family is here except Marshal Debra, who is sick in bed. By the way, Miss Sophia, the sister of Admiral Aurel, is here. Came here with your mother."

"We came together?" Charlie was startled. To tell the truth, he hadn't heard the name Sophia for a while. Since the outbreak of the war, he has been focusing on political affairs. Sophia is also very sensible and did not take the initiative to disturb him.

No, the sensible one should be her brother Aurel, Minister of the Navy, and Aurel should be there to stop him.

As soon as the name Sophia was mentioned, the image of a beautiful young girl flashed in front of Charlie's eyes uncontrollably. After thinking about it carefully, it seems that he has rarely met Sophia since he ran for president. The last time he met was this year's New Year. At the time, his mother, Lady Melissa, smiled and asked when they were getting engaged.

Um... Charlie recalled the scene at that time, when Sophia was still looking at him expectantly, but he hadn't made up his mind at the time, so he casually found an excuse for being busy with work to deal with it.

His memory is very deep. After Sophia heard his excuse, the light in her eyes dimmed a lot.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?"

Just as Charlie was thinking, Sandy on the side gently brought his consciousness back to reality, Charlie paused, temporarily suppressed the thought in his heart, and said to Sandy, "Come on, let me meet mine. New subjects."

"As you wish, Your Majesty."

Sandy saluted again and led Charlie to the end of the red-carpeted hallway.

...

"Well... I don't want to get engaged so soon. After all, government affairs are heavy, and I don't want to be distracted by these things."

Charlie's voice echoed in Sophia's ears again. She looked at the radiant Mrs. Melissa with some confusion. Beside her, the ladies and ladies of various families fluttered their wings like bees smelling nectar. There was chatter around the lady.

She blinked, looked at Mrs. Melissa who was like a mistress, and then looked at herself. The inferiority complex in her heart came like a tide again, almost drowning her, unable to breathe.

Everyone knows that her former crush was the greatest ruler of the country and a legendary figure elected by the constitution as the emperor of the empire, but this is only in the past. After Charlie's election as president, few people thought that Sophia was worthy of it. Charlie, in their opinion, Charlie's marriage will be with the big nobles in the country in exchange for support, not with the defeated nobles of her small family.

It is precisely because of this view that she gradually faded out of the public eye, and everyone thought that the relationship between her and Charlie was over, and over time, even she herself almost thought so.

She was reluctant to come tonight, but Rosa herself came to pester her and pulled her into the carriage that came here together. To her embarrassment, Mrs. Melissa still treated her as she had always been, not because of The disparity between the two identities makes her indifferent.

In fact, she still had some hopes hidden in her heart, so she changed into the long white dress she wore when she first met Charlie at the banquet four years ago, hoping to bring back Charlie's old love.

"Sophia, are you here too?"

A figure suddenly appeared in front of Sophia~www.readwn.com~ to block her sight, and then, a familiar but somewhat unfamiliar voice also sounded above her head, and immediately, she recognized this master of the voice.

"Carolina?" Sophia said in surprise, looking up at the woman standing in front of her.

"That's right, it's me." Although Karolina still had a smile on her face, she couldn't hide the coldness in her tone. "Four years have passed, and you and he are finally yellow."

"Four years ago, when the Grand Theater left, my family was suppressed by the Clos family. I had to marry an old man thirty years older than me to avoid the fate of the family going bankrupt. Now I finally have a chance to avenge you. already."

"I..." Sophia was shocked, she stood up and asked, "Carolina, what do you want to do?"

"What can I do?" Carolina still sneered again and again, "You don't have the backing of the Cross family now, and Minister Aurel is far south. You'd better be careful in the next few days, and don't get caught by me for revenge. Chance, I can't take revenge on the Cross family, and I can't do anything about you, a little noble girl?"
