PS. Kavin is so stuck that my head hurts. It’s just a daily routine. If you don’t like it, just skip it.
The wedding reception lasted all day.
Su Lun was also led by Ekaterina to meet almost all her relatives and friends.
This face recognition can be regarded as recognizing all the top dignitaries in Lu Ying's upper class.
Those who can be invited to the weddings of the Lance family and the Raigadi family are almost all people of the same level. Even the political opponents of the Lance family will be invited to such a festive occasion as the wedding.
Lance, Raphael, Roberts, Andre, Rodriguez, and Ernest, the six major Luying congressman families, could all see important members attending.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to receive guests, Su Lun also secretly observed the guests.
He also discovered that several people from the Lance family's political rival families happened to have irritating reactions to the "perfume" on their bodies.
In other words, these people are all believers of foreign gods
The five families that hold the seats of the Luying Parliament have not changed for hundreds of years.
They check and balance each other, and join forces to exclude foreigners, not allowing any outsiders to come and divide the power of the parliament.
If Archduke Raphael had not become the "Sixth Member of Parliament" with his tyrannical military strength, this situation might have continued.
In a sense, this is a very stable multilateral equilibrium state.
Even if it is a competitive relationship and a mortal enemy, they can do nothing to each other.
Several high-ranking congressmen have so much power that even the Luying royal family cannot do anything about it.
But now, there is an uncertain weight in this political balance, and that is the Priory of the Giants.
This leaves the six council members to choose a side, either to oppose the alien gods or to join them.
Lance, Raphael, and Roberts, the three major congressmen, chose the "Villain Alliance".
In addition to self-protection,
This is also a rare opportunity.
Let them stand on the stand of absolute justice and launch attacks on political opponents until death.
Even the Bona royal family is willing to see this balance broken and is secretly adding fuel to the fire.
It depends on the two sides who is stronger and has better methods.
No matter who wins in the end, it's winner-take-all.
In the future, Luying's political situation will inevitably be reshuffled, and power will be more concentrated.
Su Lun thought of a series of arrangements made by the Lance family, and it was not difficult to guess that they were preparing for this change.
This is not too surprising.
What surprised him was that the core figure in the Lance family's plan was not the "Tulip Duke" Bartolo Lance, who often appeared in newspapers as a tough guy and domineering image?
She is the fourth young lady in the family.
That gentle young lady Ekaterina Lance who has never appeared in politics!
During this wedding, Su Lun finally understood that in the eyes of all outsiders, Ekaterina was a "silly, sweet princess".
People only have an impression of her stunning beauty, but they have no idea that she has a tiger in her heart.
Ekaterina's political strategies and methods were beyond anyone Su Lun had ever seen.
In addition to the tenderness and poetry she displays, she also has a domineering attitude that has never been seen in any other woman!
This marriage with Lei Jiadi shows that she has a great plan.
Probably because of Ekaterina's frankness, she never deliberately concealed anything from herself, and Su Lun didn't think there was anything wrong with this ambition.
Except that my own intuitive impression is good.
It was also because Mr. Jing said that Master Pierre had the same ambition as her. If he could be accepted as a disciple by that master before his death, his character was certainly not bad.
In previous exchanges, there was one sentence from Ekaterina that left a deep impression on Su Lun. She said: "In this era, only the most concentrated power can create a greater civilization."
Although she didn't explain clearly, Su Lun also understood.
Although Su Lun was not interested in political matters, he still thought it was quite good.
The current Luying royal family and aristocracy are really in bad shape.
It's like a dead tree, rotten, old, lifeless
In this day, Su Lun was inseparable, and it was as if Su Lun had made a new friend.
He has been able to calmly deal with various relatives and friends with Ekaterina.
The two of them could also find time to chat about many pleasant topics, including poetry, ideals, alchemy, and anecdotes about aristocrats.
The time passed was not boring at all.
In the evening, various drinking parties ended.
As night falls, a bright white moon shines in the sky, illuminating a beautiful night view of the huge Linton City.
This is a rare night when you can see the bright moon.
Su Lun only found out later that the sunny day in Lingdun today was entirely due to the wedding.
The Lance family spent a lot of money to use alchemy to dispel the fog that shrouded Lingdun all year round.
This good weather will continue for several days.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the motorcycle stopped at the entrance of "Rose Manor".
This is their new home.
Although neither of them was the first in line of succession, the two families still purchased this small manor on the banks of the Locovalen River.
The driver opened the car door, and Su Lun took Ekaterina's hand and got out of the car.
At this time, Ekaterina turned around and asked: "Anna, why don't you go in and sit down?"
The other bridesmaids have already left, but Anna is still together.
Because her home is at the end of this street.
"I won't go in. I'll come find you tomorrow."
Anna looked at the two of them, showed an ambiguous smile, and said: "I wish you a wonderful wedding night~"
Hearing this, Ekaterina rolled her eyes at her and smiled softly.
The car door is closed.
Anna still had the bouquet of flowers she had grabbed during the day, and suddenly she seemed to remember something. The smile on her face faded, and she murmured to herself: "Katyusha, I really envy you."
As a groom, of course he can't leave on the first day. At least he has to make a show of coming back together.
And there are some other things to do.
"The things from Raigadi are on the way. The alchemy notebook will be given to you in a moment. However, Mr. Sullen, you may have to stay in the manor tonight."
"Um."
""
Even if there were no guests, Ekaterina would not let go of Su Lun's arm.
The two walked into the manor.
At this time, Su Lun thought of just now and said casually: "Miss Anna seems to be in a bad mood."
Yekaterina's eyes flashed with a sigh, and she felt a little unworthy of her friend, and said: "Yes. Because in a few months, she will marry a mine owner in the south."
When Su Lun heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "Oh."
He also guessed that there was no emotion to talk about in this kind of political marriage, and there was no choice. Probably Miss Anna was not satisfied with the marriage partner.
Sure enough, Ekaterina said: "Anna didn't like the mine owner's fiancé. So she met him before and she hasn't been happy since she came back."
Su Lun didn't know what to say, and no one else had the right to intervene in this matter.
Marriage is a rule that Lu Ying has agreed upon for thousands of years. Especially in the upper class, being well-matched is more important than emotional foundation.
Neither of them spoke, and they walked a few steps, but without thinking, Ekaterina turned her head, with a look of narrowness on her face, and said: "I can't help her with this matter. Maybe Mr. Su Lun, you can?"
"
Before Su Lun could react, he asked, "Me?"
Yekaterina said seriously: "Yes. Who among the Luying aristocracy doesn't have several lovers? Didn't I dance with you at the Royal Academy dance before? Anna is very satisfied with you."
""
Su Lun rolled his eyes.
The Luying aristocratic circle is indeed quite chaotic. After getting married, many couples not only play their own way, but even share some interesting things with each other.
He said calmly: "I have no interest in this."
Ekaterina blinked and said with a smile: "I'm not interested either."
Su Lun didn't take it seriously, and the two of them could still joke around when they weren't talking about serious business.
The two walked through the garden, which was not too spacious, and came to a three-story building.
Next to it is a house where servants live, as well as a wine cellar, stables, gardens in front and behind the house, and a swimming pool.
Although it is not too big, it can be considered a residence of high-level nobles with complete specifications.
Along the way, Su Lun sensed that there were many people in the manor.
The servants Catherine brought were all acquaintances who had been with her since childhood.
Housekeepers, servants, cooks, drivers, guards, etc., dozens of people.
Lei Jiadi also sent some servants over, and Su Lun had no intention of paying attention to those people.
The two entered the small building, which was decorated luxuriously.
The first floor is the living room, dining room, etc., the second floor is the study, leisure room, and maid's room, and the third floor is the master bedroom. Only the master and personal servants can go up there.
Su Lun and Ekaterina walked up to the third floor, where several maids were already waiting.
He had met her at the Melcherses Manor before and knew that Catherine had six personal maids who had grown up with her, and they were her most trusted servants.
The two of them were still wearing dresses for the daytime wedding. As soon as they went upstairs, the maid came to them and helped them change out of the clothes they wore outside.
Ekaterina didn't shy away from Su Lun when she was changing clothes during the day, and she didn't shy away from it now.
The two maids unbuttoned the hidden buttons at the back of her long dress, and the dress fell off, exposing her stunning figure to the air.
The other two maids also carefully helped Su Lun unbutton his military uniform. They were very careful and respectful, as if they completely treated him as the master of the house.
Today I was busy with a wedding during the day, and I was smelling of sweat and alcohol, so I was a little tired.
Yekaterina did not treat Su Lun as an outsider at all, just like a newlywed wife asking her husband, she said openly: "Would you like to take a bath together? The manor is connected to an underground hot spring, and the water quality is very good.
"
Su Lun was slightly startled when he heard this. He didn't know why Ekaterina didn't seem to care at all about being exposed, but there was nothing unnatural about the look on her face.
The people who invited me were very calm, so Su Lun naturally didn't feel embarrassed and said with a smile: "Okay."
Ekaterina looked back, smiled, and entered the room first.
Although Su Lun wanted to take off his clothes by himself, there was no room for intervention. The two maids helped him take off the dress inside and out very familiarly.
Only then did he understand what Sabina had said before, that upper class gentlemen do not have to do anything when they go home. They have servants and scouts for food, clothing, housing and transportation. But if you have to do it yourself, people will think you are bankrupt.
Su Lun was not used to this kind of extremely luxurious enjoyment, but while his thoughts were still flowing, the two maids had already taken off all their clothes.
They are Ekaterina's personal maids. They have been in the Reims family since they were young and have also learned professional servant training. But this is probably the first time they serve a man. Although they try their best to appear calm and their techniques are very stable, their cheeks
The blush still made Su Lun see that they were a little shy.
After serving the clothes, a maid arranged the clothes. The brown-haired girl led Su Lun towards the room, "Sir, this way."
Suellen walked in.
The house is very large, and the master bedroom is on the other side. This side looks like a room dedicated to bathing, and the sound of rushing water can be heard next to my ears.
He walked to the shower room, and the brown-haired maid took off her coat and apron, wearing only a thin white shirt and began to adjust the hot water. Because the clothes were very thin, and the warm water vapor wet them, the clothes
It sticks to the skin, appearing translucent and faintly visible.
Su Lun was so close, so he could naturally see it clearly.
The maids of the Lance family are all top choices. They are tall and look like one of the best beauties in the world, and they are also a pleasure to look at.
Not long after, another maid from before also walked in wearing a thin shirt, and they began to help Su Lun clean her body together.
This makes Su Lun a bit like the service he once had at a soup kitchen in Old Town. It is indeed quite considerate.
But the difference was that the two personal maids didn't have any smell of prostitution at all, and their serious attitude made him feel a little sorry for taking advantage of other girls.
The hot water rushed down, and Su Lun didn't smell the rusty smell of the boiler, but instead smelled the faint fragrance of ore.
Obviously, the water flowing out of the faucet is natural spring water with excellent water quality.
Su Lun didn't do anything himself at all, the two maids had already cleaned him up.
"Sir, this way."
Although she had already seen the large bath in the room, the brown-haired maid still led Su Lun over.
Turning the corner, when the large bathhouse full of clear water came into view, Su Lun also saw Ekaterina who happened to be the first to get into the water.
When she saw Su Lun, she asked with a smile: "How do you feel? Are you getting used to Martina and Jessica's service? They are my personal maids and have never served anyone else. Some of them may not do well.
Don’t be too surprised."
Only then did Su Lun learn the names of the two maids. She smiled and shook her head, "They are pretty good."
As soon as these words came out, the two maids behind him lowered their heads with flattered expressions.
At this moment, Su Lun's eyes met for a moment, and Su Lun's peripheral vision happened to see the graceful figure in the pool.
In the past, even when changing into a dress, I would still wear a strand of sexy thin clothing to hide my secrets, but now I am completely naked when I take a bath.
Whether it’s a towering chest with snow-capped peaks, or a well-proportioned belly and slender legs
From head to toe, you can really see everything at a glance.
Su Lun didn't know why Ekaterina was completely unguarded against him.
Is it because Miss Rington, a noble lady, has an open mind?
Or do you think this is just a procedure for marriage?
Or is it because of something else?
But the frankness on her pretty face made Su Lun feel that she was overthinking and had some evil intentions.
After hearing this, Yekaterina smiled openly and said: "They will also be your servants from now on. If you need anything, just ask them."
Su Lun smiled and said nothing.
According to the rules of the upper class, if Ekaterina married Fike, her personal maid would also be part of the dowry. Naturally, the male master could take it at will, and she was considered a hothouse maid.
They relieve the loneliness of the male owner when the hostess is inconvenient or when she is away from home.
Or warm up the show in advance and Dangdang atmosphere group
This is normal among the Luying aristocracy.
Su Lun had personally experienced the luxurious life of a high-class noble, and he also remembered the aristocratic customs that Sabina had popularized before.
Gee, when it comes to enjoying life, Noble Lu Ying really understands it.
Six maids, two waiting outside.
There are also four people waiting for the two masters to bathe and take a bath.
The masters had no clothes, so of course they couldn't wear them. At this moment, the clothes of the four maids were completely wet. They had quietly taken off their wet clothes, stripped naked, and started busy.
At this time, Su Lun was dragged by the head and neck by a pair of soft hands, and gently placed on the towel beside the bathtub.
He lay there on his back, pressing his temples with delicate fingers, and the nerves that had been tense all day suddenly felt relieved.
And at this angle, the tilted head is just touching a gentle touch.
Su Lun couldn't see the person behind her, but she could clearly see Ekaterina opposite her and the two naked maids wearing her clothes.
Huan is fat and Yan is thin, both are pretty little beauties.
But in front of Catherine, they were just green leaves adorning red flowers.
Su Lun squinted his eyes slightly and felt that he was enjoying this rare relaxation process.
The two of them soaked in the water, and no one said anything.
There was only the sound of running water in the huge room, and the whole world seemed to be quiet.
Su Lun rarely enjoyed this novel experience and thought it was quite good.
Time flies by.
The two of them didn't soak for long. About ten minutes later, Su Lun heard the sound of rushing water.
When I opened my eyes, I happened to see that graceful body standing up from the water.
The crystal water droplets slid down from the delicate white porcelain skin, and even if you didn't deliberately look at it, you could have a panoramic view of the beautiful scenery.
The figure of this little princess of the Reims family is truly stunning.
Tonight is a feast for the eyes.
Ekaterina obviously caught the strange look that fell on her figure for a moment, and she didn't shy away from it. Instead, she smiled slightly.
She asked again in a questioning tone: "Sir, would you like to have a massage before going to bed?"
I don't know if it was intentional or not, but she omitted her name and just said "Sir", which was like a term of endearment when meeting guests during the day.
Su Lun didn't wait too long, "Okay."
I’ve tried everything and let’s see what else the nobles can enjoy.
Moreover, from beginning to end, he discovered that Yekaterina said she would ask again, but in fact she only had two choices.
A, Agree;
B, think about it before agreeing.
He was not given the option to refuse at all.
Su Lun stood up, and a maid behind him helped him step out of the bath. The other immediately wiped the water droplets on his body with a bath towel. After wiping his chest and back, he knelt down and wiped it carefully.
This made Su Lun not know where to focus his eyes for a moment.
No matter where you look, there are mountains and mountains covered with white flowers.
Ekaterina seemed to be used to it. She looked at Su Lun and chatted a few words as usual.
"Mr. Su Lun, do you think the water here is okay? Because I've been used to it since I was a child, I asked my father to bring one over from the Melcheses Manor. Because it has a good warming effect on the skin, but the taste of silver sodium is a little bit
It will be heavier”
"Are you satisfied with Jessica's technique? If you are satisfied, you can ask her to massage you more in the future."
""
Su Lun didn't feel anything wrong.
Not long after, the two walked to the next room.
Without the warm water vapor, the whole person suddenly felt awake.
This is another very special experience.
The maid took off the bath towel on his body, pointed to one of the two massage beds that had been laid out, and said: "Sir, you can lie down or face down."
Su Lun saw that Sabina was lying on the bed two meters away, and he was lying on his stomach too.
Then there is the massage with a very special technique. There is a cool spiritual energy fluctuation on the fingertips of the maids, and the meridians are gently touched. It feels very wonderful.
From the neck, spine, lower back, to the heels
That cool spiritual power gently dredges your own meridians and muscle fibers, and your body gradually relaxes more and more.
Although Su Lun didn't understand the massage technique yet, he guessed that it must be some kind of "secret method".
This kind of regular pressing seems to be vaguely consistent with some luck methods of body refining.
When Su Lun was in the gang, he and Qian Jiao often went to the hot spring room together and experienced various massages.
There are always pictures hanging in the bathhouses outside saying that they are "secret massage techniques from the palace." Su Lun used to think that palace massage might really be like that.
But now that I have experienced it, compared with this authentic one, it is completely different!
Jessica's massage behind her has been done to the utmost in detail, which is really a high-end experience that makes people feel comfortable all over the pores.
It's wonderful and makes people feel like time flies by.
"Okay, sir, you can turn around now."
In a daze, Su Lun heard the maid shouting next to his ear, and he turned over.
Beside her, Ekaterina was also lying on her back.
Su Lun glanced at her.
At this time, Yekaterina, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly spoke, "Mr. Su Lun, if you are not busy with other things, you can stay in the house for a few more days."
""
Su Lun didn't know how to respond.
There's nothing else to do. Even if it's cultivation, it can be done anywhere.
However, this marriage is not a transaction?
this
Before he could think about it, Yekaterina added: "But if you want to go out recently, you may have to be more careful. The long house in Leijiadi may be bad for you. I just used astrology to divine the results.
That's probably the case."
"oh?"
Su Lun frowned slightly as he listened.
Not too surprising.
After all, after meeting the members of the Raigadi family during the day, he became more and more certain that Mrs. Portia and Young Master William, mother and son, would definitely be detrimental to him.
Yekaterina added: "After all, William is my classmate at the Royal Academy. According to my understanding of him, he is the kind of person whose reason is easily dominated by pride. He will not allow any 'stains' in his life.
, jealousy will make him do some extremely paranoid behavior."
After a pause, she said in a rather helpless tone: "In fact, I think he should be thinking about killing me too at this moment."
Su Lun laughed when he heard this, "He even wants to kill you?"
He did not doubt Ye's judgment at all, nor did he doubt that her words had any instigating motives.
"yes."
Ekaterina said calmly: "And I also feel that once your whereabouts are exposed in the past few days, you will inevitably be assassinated, and William will most likely do it himself."
When Su Lun heard this, his mind suddenly started to spin.
It's not a problem to always be remembered. We should find a way to completely solve this hidden danger.
