Start As a Lord In a Viscount

Chapter 197: : The reason for the marriage

"Do you want to listen to the current Duke Charles or the previous Duke Charles?" Shane asked.

Claire wondered, "Is there a difference?"

"Of course there is a difference." Shane said, "Although the current Duke Charles is Little Charlie, the actual controller is the old Charlie behind him."

"Huh?" Claire was even more puzzled. "Why did the previous old Charlie abdicate? Isn't it bad to be the clear-cut controller?"

"Uh... Let's talk about this wedding." Xia En has been in the capital all the year round, and is very well informed about the various gossips here.

Shane's voice became smaller, "I tell you don't go out, this is a political marriage between the Charlie family and the royal family. The object of the marriage is the second daughter of His Majesty the King, in order to be worthy of the second daughter. The status of Her Royal Highness, the old Duke Charles, only abdicated."

Claire raised her eyebrows, really interesting news.

"Do you know why you got married?" Claire asked.

"Uh... It seems that the second princess fell in love with the current Duke Charles at a ball. His Majesty thought that he was worthy of this status anyway, so he simply married off. The old Duke Charles felt that he could climb up with the royal family. Relatives are also very happy, so there is this wedding."

Claire: "..."

Why does it feel a little bad? It seems that I have also been targeted by the little princess of the kingdom. Shouldn't I also get married in the future? !

"Why is your face so ugly?" Shane asked with concern.

Claire waved her hand, "Ah, it's okay."

"Oh, by the way, if you go to this banquet, you might meet Irene. He told me about you several times, saying that you won't go to see her when you come to the capital."

Hearing this, Claire's face froze. It's not that he doesn't like Irene or anything. She is a good-looking person, has a high status, and has a good temperament. But he is only sixteen now! He is still a child! And how can one's own life events be so simply decided by others?

Shane stared at Claire's face and asked suspiciously, "What's the matter with you kid?! Irene went to Nafu City once, and I will never forget you."

"Uh uh... Show me your gift box, I might give you some design ideas." Claire changed the subject.

Although this way of diverting the topic was extremely blunt, Shane did not expose it. He knew that Claire was very strict, and it was impossible for him to get words out of his mouth.

So I followed Claire to discuss the packaging of the gift box, how can I put the mark of the tulip shop on it, and it doesn't look very awkward and unconventional.

...

There was nothing like what Claire said that stopped him from the door. He walked in directly behind Shane, and the guards standing at the door didn't ask a word at all.

The housekeeper in charge of welcoming guests said hello to Shane, and as for Claire, it was assumed that Shane brought him here to meet the world.

"Let's go, the wedding banquet hasn't started so soon, let's find a place to rest for a while." Shane took Claire to find a seat with fewer people and sat down.

Later, Claire also saw Sophia and the others coming in, and before they had time to say hello to the other party, it was convenient for other nobles to receive them in the room to discuss things.

Claire took a glass of liqueur and sipped it, and continued to look around the venue, looking for Hubert.

"Who are you looking for?" Shane stood up, "Irene is a princess, she won't arrive so soon."

Claire didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but explained that the other party definitely didn't believe it, so he could only let him guess.

"Let's go, don't sit here all the time. These banquets are originally places for socializing. I'll take you to meet the younger generation of nobles in the royal capital."

Claire thought for a while, it was embarrassing to stay here alone, she simply picked up the wine glass and followed Shane to the crowded place.

...

"This is the lord of the Viscount Griffin, Viscount Clare!"

After Shane introduced the young boys and girls, he solemnly introduced Claire.

After the voice fell, the scene suddenly became silent.

Someone even whispered: "It's just a viscount, I thought it was a big man from somewhere."

Like Shane, they are all heirs of the top family, so they really don't look down on a viscount, let alone a viscount who has never heard of the name at all. You don't need to think about it. The bumpkin from the border.

Shane felt that the scene was a little embarrassing, and added: "He is also a shareholder of Tulip Store and my partner."

But those aristocratic teenagers who only eat, drink and play all day have heard of the name Tulip Shop, and they just nodded slightly, so as not to make Xia En so embarrassed.

"I know the tulip shop!" a young and beautiful girl suddenly exclaimed, "It seems that they have recently released a product: a gift from the **** of love, which is very popular."

"I seem to have heard that there is a touching story here..." Another girl suddenly said.

Shane winked at Claire at this time, as if to say: You can see that my promotion is good, and the target customers know it.

Claire also gave him a thumbs up secretly, and then said, "I'd better introduce myself, I'm the lord of Nafu City."

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into silence again, and then a fierce discussion broke out within a few seconds.

"Nafu City? It sounds familiar."

"I know, isn't that a city where mermaids are haunted?"

"Yes! I seem to have heard others say that the prototype of the story of Master Wendy's mermaid princess came from there."

"Really? I'm a big fan of Master Wendy. I've watched her mermaid princess performance no less than three times!"

Not as Claire expected, those who were discussing intensely were all girls, and the boys were all stunned. The mermaid's limelight swept the entire capital, and no matter how they didn't care, they would still hear it from others.

After a while, Claire was surrounded by a group of girls, pestering him to ask.

"Do you really have a mermaid there?"

"There are some, if you want to watch it, you can go to Nafu City for a tour, I will treat you well." Claire didn't forget to advertise her city at this time.

"What does a mermaid look like?"

"It's a mermaid who is half human and half fish!"

"Does the mermaid look good?"

"I've seen it once, and it's beautiful."

"Does it look good on me?" A beautiful girl raised her hand and asked.

Claire thought for a while pretending to be tangled, and then said, "Each has its own strengths."

"Hee hee~www.wuxiahere.com~ The girl who got the compliment covered her mouth and laughed.

When the other girls saw it, they pestered Claire and asked.

"What about me! What about me!"

"And I!"

Xia En looked at him with jealousy. These noble ladies usually have a cold attitude, and it would be nice to have a few words with them. Where is Claire treated like this, surrounded by a group of noble ladies.

Claire quickly moved the conversation elsewhere, and his two-life humour kept them laughing.

But this also made the aristocratic teenagers on the side look embarrassed. They had a good conversation before Claire came, but now the girls are running away, leaving themselves and others behind.

They don't have any friendship with Claire, so someone said directly: "Viscount Claire! Your territory is so far away from the capital, it must be troublesome to go back and forth?"

Especially with the word Viscount, the tone was a lot more intense, and all the people present suddenly heard the smell of gunpowder.

The girls also stopped talking to Claire and looked back.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xia En immediately stood up and said to the field: "I have been to Nafu City, where the environment is good, and it is quite close to the capital. If you have time, you can go and see it, maybe you can still watch it. To the mermaid."

Claire didn't speak, and just looked at the boy who spoke just now. To him, it was like a child's slapstick, which was really childish and ridiculous.
