The Defeated Dragon

    The close-fitting tuxedo, the wavy hair style, and the bright powder forced to wipe the face, the freshly baked Liszt, radiant.

    perfect

    Meepo patted Liszt's shoulder: "You will be the focus of all women at the ball tonight."

    "I didn't mean it. Maybe I will be very enthusiastic in a few years. Now, sorry, my cousin, I have no plans to know any noble ladies."

    "I can't believe it if I can't help it. Don't worry about Liszt. The best thing in life is to meet the right people at the right time. Don't let me go with the opportunity."

    "This is the reason why your cousin has been unmarried for many years?"

    "Don't bring the topic to me, now we talk about you."

    Liszt shook his cuffs, and Mei Opo was very good to him. In fact, he wanted to tell his cousin that instead of chasing the grand Duke of Sapphire's social daughter, there is a possibility that the Longtaro Family will be replaced by a bird. It is better to be down-to-earth. Find a female aristocrat to get married.

    But when I got to the lips, I still took it back.

    This situation must have the will of the Marquis – the Longtaro Family is self-satisfied, and it is necessary to go further. Once the daughter of the Grand Duke of Sapphire is married, the family status is unbreakable.

    As a baron in the countryside, he still doesn't eat rough bread, and he is in the heart of the Marquis.

    After dressing up for the show, follow Meopo to the hall where the ball will be held. There are already two or three nobles coming in, chatting in the hall and enjoying the drinks prepared by the servants.

    "Sir Meepo, have you finally come down?"A nobleman came over with a glass of wine.

    "Not yet at the dance time, don't worry, Martil."

    Martil looked at Liszt: "Is this?"

    "My cousin, his father is Count of Coral Island."

    "It turned out to be the tulip family. I met for the first time. I am Marty Sting."

    "Liszt · Tulip."Liszt maintains a polite smile, but he is not very enthusiastic. He is not a passionate aristocrat. It is helpless to participate in this dance.

    But then, but helplessly can only endure, constantly in the introduction of Mei Opal, met the young aristocrats on the Red Crab Island. Basically, the followers of Longtaro Family – the marquis of the Marquis, completely loyal to the Marquis.

    The interesting thing about the aristocratic system is that.

    The aristocrats separated by the king are the princes of the king, the small aristocrats of the aristocracy, and the vassals of the nobility. But the aristocrats who were separated by the aristocracy were not the princes of the king, and they did not have to be loyal to the king. For example, Count of Coral Island Lee William is the king's divided aristocrat, the king's vassal, but Liszt is not, he only needs to loyal to his father.

    After the father has been a hundred years old, he needs to be loyal to his brother Levis.

    "Is there a pretty lady who looks good, if there is, tell me, I can match you, don't be restrained."Meopo, who greeted a group of guests, returned to Liszt. "When you look at your brother, he is completely adapted to the scene of the ball. He has already hooked up the daughters of the three Viscounts."

    Followed by his gaze, you can see the general Levis, do not know what to say, a young lady laughed and laughed.

    "And your sister, and some people are flattering him."

    There are two male nobles on the side of Li Weila, who are talking and laughing with her – she is not pretty, but with a little inquiries, she can know that Li Weila has a baronial title, which is for those knights, Or the aristocrat who cannot inherit the family title is a good marriage partner.

    When you are married, you can continue to enjoy the status of the nobility.

    Liszt raised the fruit wine in his hand and touched Meopo: "I wish them happiness soon. As for me, cousin, I really don't have to worry about me."

    "Really not?"

    Really

    "Okay, but I will still help you pay attention to the right lady."

    "unnecessary."Liszt is speechless, this cousin is too much, and I am so keen to be old.

    Mei Opao shrugged slightly and whispered to him: "In fact, this is what Grandpa meant. He knows that you are in the tulip family and are not valued. I hope you can come to Red Crab Island. Moreover, I also need help, Longtaro Family is not prosperous, I don't have brothers and sisters, you know, I hope you can come. ”

    Liszt felt that Mei Opo was telling the truth.

    According to his conversion to the unit of measurement, basically converted, coral island is equivalent to the area of ​​a prefecture-level city, about 10,000 square kilometers.

    Red Crab Island is ten times the size of a coral island, about 100,000 square kilometers.

    This area is equivalent to the area of ​​provinces such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang. There is no road, the traffic depends on the horse-drawn carriage, the bigger the more difficult to manage. Moreover, the nobility is not a centralized method. There are more small aristocrats, and the management of the territory will become more and more chaotic, and even shake the roots of the ruling family.

    Thinking about it, saying that it is not a heart is a fake, Flower Town is a backcountry, really not much development value.

    To the development of Red Crab Island, Longtaro Family must at least give him a level of treatment – Viscount, can have a small city seal.

    However, relying on women to achieve this goal, Liszt is very resistant: "Let's go with the flow, cousin, I don't miss it if I like it, don't force me if I don't like it."

    Good.

……

    When the night falls, the dance begins.

    The soothing piano music came from the fingertips of a pianist and created a suitable atmosphere for the ball.

    As the landlord, Meopo and a daughter of the Viscount, jumped the first opening dance, and then retired, indicating that everyone is free to partner.

    Liszt sat in the corner and watched the young men and women danced in the middle of the dance floor.

    No action followed.

    He has already looked at all the women who participated in the dance. They are tall, thin, thin and beautiful, and they all have cognition, but unfortunately, women who have not let their hearts move. Even if there are several mature women who fit his aesthetic concept, age is an obstacle – he is only sixteen years old.

    At this age, many nobles have begun to debauchery.

    But it is not the age of marriage, from male to twenty, female to eighteen, is the instigation season of marriage.

    His eyes crossed the crowd, not knowing where to fall in the void, and then a moment, the invisible smoke gradually emerged, forming a twisted serpentine.

    "mission: fresh and tender cockroaches, not only the cows like to eat, but the horses also like to eat. This is the basis for opening up the racecourse. It is also the beginning of the meritorious service. Please place the cordyceps for the locusts. Reward: Three wild corns. ”

    The mission has been around for a few days, and my heart is a little anxious.

    "After a few days of delay, the weeds should have grown out. Going back can probably place locusts…Wild corn, I don’t know what it is, the output should be at least several times more than wheat. ”

    Just when he thought about the mission.

    Suddenly, the sound of jaundice was heard in the ear: "Hey, Liszt, can I sit here?"

    The smoke suddenly dissipated.

    Liszt came back and saw that she was a 17-year-old girl who looked a bit like the second daughter of the Earl's second son, Edith Manor. Wavy rolls of linen, pointed nose, deep eye sockets, and thin lips that look like laughter.

    Very standard, there are eight points.

    Before Mei Poe introduced him, she was a little daughter of the Viscount, called Athena Salmon, whose family is famous for producing salmon.

    Liszt showed a gentle smile and reached out and said, "Beautiful lady, you will welcome you anywhere."
