Chapter 612 [0605] They Are All Foxes of Thousands of Years

Although in theory the king's engagement ceremony was worthy of celebration throughout Demacia, the essence of the engagement banquet was still a noble banquet.

The aristocratic banquet is a place where "greetings and politeness are used to express emotions and purposes, and dancing and chatting are used to achieve cooperation."

In addition, the ladies also bear the responsibility of competing for beauty. Here, wealth and heritage will be embodied in gorgeous clothing and accessories, and displayed to others. As the protagonist of the banquet, the future queen Miss Lanfu has almost achieved the most stunning beauty.

Lux heard many people whispering, saying things like "No wonder I can charm His Majesty the King."

"What a perfect match." Picking up a glass of champagne, Lux responded to the others with a smile, and praised Kalya in her heart, "After Jiawen returned from climbing the mountain, his whole temperament has changed!"

"So I always feel a little awkward." Kalya seemed to have a problem with the new queen. "This Miss Lanfu is standing next to him, but she can easily attract the attention of others. This is not just based on her appearance and dress. Just do it.”

"But she doesn't seem to have any problem." Lux didn't understand why Kalya was so sensitive today, "You just tried it, and the other party didn't even react with magic."

"Yes, everything seems normal. It seems that Miss Lanfu is really just a beautiful, elegant, intelligent, and noble lady with an outstanding temperament." Kalya smacked her lips, "Considering that she is just better than you. How many years younger...why have we never heard of her name?"

"Didn't you find out everything before?" Lux took a sip of champagne. "Her health was not good when she was a child. She almost never attended aristocratic events. She usually likes to read books."

"Books won't teach you how to dress for a noble banquet." Kalya sighed, "I have seen many people who are really weak and sick since childhood and like to read, but they don't have the communication skills of this queen."

"Huh?" Hearing what Kalya said, Lux was a little confused. "It seems that our future queen is not good at communication. Most of the communication is done by Jarvan."

"That's because she intentionally gave up the initiative." Kalya chuckled, "She behaved very naturally, handing over guests who were not easy to deal with to Jarvan IV, but the question is, is she good to a guest? The judgment of how to deal with it is a little too accurate."

"You mean, she's too perfect?" Lux said thoughtfully, "She's too perfect to be sociable?"

"Absolutely." Kalya confirmed Lux's statement, "I think you should go and have a chat."

"What to talk about?"

"Leave the topic to me." Kalya seemed to be interested, "The unknown exploration of words is a very interesting part..."

……………………

According to Kalya's request, Lux held up two glasses of juice and came to the opposite side of Jarvan IV and Lanfu while there was no one around him.

"Your Majesty, congratulations." A sincere smile appeared on Lux's face as she greeted Jarvan IV, "You are once again ahead of my brother!"

"You guy..." Jarvan IV heard this, and the stiff smile on his face finally became more lively. "Don't tease me at this time, my dear noble model lady!"

"Haha, I have never acknowledged this nickname." Lux shook her head slightly, "So, Your Majesty, do you mind if your fiancée and I find a place to chat and relax a little? She looks a little tired."

"Thank you so much." After hearing this, Jarvan IV finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lan Fu, "My dear, would you like to go to the terrace on the second floor to take a breath?"

Lan Fu nodded impatiently.

"She will be left to you first." Jarvan IV nodded slightly towards Lux, "Relax, my dear, Lux is my sister."

Putting the juice in Lanfu's hand, Lux took her to the terrace on the second floor with ease.

"Lan Fu, can I call you this?" Lux took a step sideways, covering most of Lan Fu's body, cleverly creating a semi-hidden space, "Come, drink some juice and relax Bar."

"Of course." Lanfu picked up the juice and took a small sip, with a look of relief on her face. "Miss Laxana, can I call you Lax?"

"Of course." Lux smiled and nodded, "Relax a little, Lanfu, you have done a perfect job, now you don't need to control the center of gravity anymore."

"Really?" Lan Fu, who put down the cup, seemed a little surprised, "His Majesty often talks about you to me, saying that you are a model of nobility and your etiquette has never been impeccable."

"Etiquette is the rule of the nobility." Lux showed a modest look on her face, "But in front of close people, excessive etiquette can only represent alienation - so, relax a little and enjoy the feeling of standing in high heels all afternoon. It’s not easy, so you must seize all the time you can take to relax.”

After hearing this, Lan Fu blinked her eyes and leaned back slightly against the wall.

"This is different from what I imagined, Lux." Lanfu visibly relaxed a lot, and her beautiful eyes narrowed comfortably, "I thought you would be a serious person. "

"How is that possible?" Lux shook her head slightly, "Actually, before I was ten years old, I followed His Majesty and my brother almost every day, and I didn't look like a girl at all - it's just that this part of the past, His Majesty may not be happy to mention it to you."

"Ah? Why is this?" Lanfu was a little confused, "Uh, wait a minute, shouldn't I ask?"

"No, no, no, it's not that serious." Lux continued to smile, "It's mainly because the children...are quite naughty. If you talk about my childhood, you may inevitably talk about His Majesty's glorious experiences as a child. I'm afraid he will Worry about ruining your perfect image in the heart of your lover.”

Lan Fu seemed a little surprised. She was stunned for a moment and blinked before she understood what was going on. Then she couldn't help opening her folding fan and covering her mouth.

Judging from her shaking shoulders, Lan Fu seemed to be smiling happily.

"Although I know very well in my heart that many things are normal for children, there is always an inexplicable shame when speaking about it." Lux seemed to feel this deeply, "When talking about this topic , I heard that Lanfu liked reading books very much when you were a child, and you always stayed in the library at home?"

"When I was young, I was relatively weak." When talking about this topic, Lanfu finally stopped smiling. "Even basic exercise is difficult. Most of the time, I can only study at home."

"This is a good thing." Lux looked extremely envious. "No matter if you are five, fifteen or fifty years old, there is no problem in talking about reading."

"But if you think about reading fairy tales over and over again when you were a child, it feels very strange."

"It's better than remembering the dull pain in my knees when I plunged into the ditch as a child..."

"..."

"..."

As if they were really just sisters and sisters-in-law, Lux and Lanfu chatted in this undisturbed corner for nearly two quarters of an hour, until Lanfu seemed to be in a much better condition, and then they said goodbye reluctantly.

Seeing Lan Fu and Jarvan IV entertaining the noble guests again, Lux handed two empty glasses to the waiter, and then asked Kalya how she felt.

"What do you think of Miss Lanf?"

"Not very good." Kalya gave a conclusion that stunned Lux, "She has been hiding something."

"How is this possible?" Lux didn't expect it at all, "What is she hiding?"

"Although the performance is perfect, the level is still not interesting." Karya commented in a very professional tone, "The expression of pretending not to know is not natural enough, and the expression of trying to make me discover something is a bit obvious."

"Is she trying to make you discover something?" Lux was already confused, "Besides, why can't you stop talking?"

"As for her childhood, among the lines I gave you before, there were some fairy tale puns, but after you said it, she didn't react." Kalya chuckled, "Believe me, I like to read it. When people who read fairy tales hear these puns, they will be as happy as if they have discovered a friend, but she tries to act like she doesn't know - that is the kind of thing where she clearly knows but pretends not to know."

"What does this mean?" In terms of micro-expressions and verbal connotations, Lux was completely unable to keep up with Kalya's level of thinking. "Does she want me to find out on purpose?"

"Yes, this is a big flaw. If you have good observation skills, you should be able to catch this problem and notice something is wrong." Kalya continued, "However, this flaw was deliberately exposed by her, and In this performance, her performance was a little less interesting."

"Why did she do this?" Lux was completely confused. "Is there any benefit in letting me feel that something is wrong with her?"

"I haven't discovered this yet." Speaking of this, Kalya was also a little helpless, "Although she is not very popular, she is not a simple person. If you want to find out her details just by chatting for a while, then It’s just a fantasy.”

"So what are we going to do next?" Lux asked doubtfully, "You noticed something was wrong with her, and then what?"

"Then just wait." Kalya said in a subtle tone, "I have a hunch that this guy's identity may not be as simple as the future queen, but it's hard to say yet - but this has nothing to do with Forsbarrow. We can be patient and let the bullets fly for a while."

……………………

While Lux and Kalya were talking about Lanfu, on the other side of the banquet hall, while entertaining guests, Lanfu also whispered something about Lux to Jarvan IV.

"Your Majesty, that paragon of nobles seems to have discovered something." According to the outline of the script, Lanfu began to apply eye drops to Lux quietly, "I always feel that her perception is too keen."

"Isn't that true?" Jarvan IV was quite surprised to hear what Lan Fu said, "Aren't you just chatting?"

"Just chatting is enough." Lanfu sighed helplessly, "She is indeed a model of nobility, her insight is so sharp."

"What did you all talk about?" Jarvan IV asked in confusion, "Could she still find out that our plan didn't work out?"

"The plan can't be discovered, but I'm afraid suspicion has already arisen." Lanfu lowered her head slightly, "She told me a lot about her childhood, about her, about you - our plan did not include this part. "

Upon hearing this, Jarvan IV quickly understood what the other party meant.

"But that's okay. After all, even loved ones may not be willing to share what happened when they were children."

"I answered with similar reasons, but it didn't seem to be enough to satisfy her... It seemed to her that these were things you would be willing to share with your true lover."

"Even if she really feels that something is wrong, you don't have to worry too much." Jarvan IV blinked his eyes after hearing this, but after thinking for a moment, he quickly felt relieved, "Forsbarrow is far away from the capital. Very well, after the engagement ceremony, she will go back."

In the end, the engagement ceremony ended smoothly and was successfully completed.

That night, Lux returned to the Crownguard Manor for the first time.

Although she slept in her familiar bedroom again, this time her identity changed from a little princess to a guest.

Putting aside Lanfu's affairs for the time being, Lux lay silently on the soft bed - the bed and quilt were the same style as when she left Xiangdu and went to Forsbarrow, but when she lay here again, she no longer had the same look as she once had. That feeling.

On the other side, Lanfu did not let go of Lux.

At this moment, Lanfu, who was in the Castle of Dawn, was reading the script with another actor in the shadows.

"The plan goes well, Laxana will leave Xiongdu soon."

"What, are you sure this guy is difficult to deal with?"

"It's not up to me to deal with her directly. The little king seems to trust her quite a bit - but it doesn't matter. I am truly one of my own now."

"So, prologue over, it's time to begin act one."

"Have you made contact with Noxus?"

"Of course, someone will soon give me a medal to wash away the shame of the Battle of Tobitsia."

"Then you should take it easy, don't lose your merit and become the meritorious service of others."

"Don't worry, without us, Noxus is already a crumbling old house. Anyone who kicks it will fall something - but you, when can you completely take down that little chicken?"

"You don't need to worry about this. When you return from your service, the second act of the sadomasochistic triangle will definitely go smoothly."

"That's good, you can go and don't let me down."

"Each other."

Kalya’s Little Class·The Naughty Trio:

Jarvan IV, Garen, and Lux ​​are relatively close in age, and they used to play together when they were children. These three little troublemakers have left many "great achievements" in the capital, including but not limited to creating statues of the Forbidden Demon Stone. Painting, lining up to fall into the same gutter, making flower cakes and destroying half of the garden, trying to climb the dragon bird perch to artificially hatch dragon bird eggs...
