The Last Frontier of Fire and Sword

Chapter 165: Surprise 5

After Chechen came to the Republic of Poland, he attended many dinners, the most solemn of which was the birthday of Princess Helena in Smolensk. At that birthday dinner, Smolensk nobles, large and small, gathered to celebrate the birthday of Princess Helena, the proud daughter of heaven.

But after that dinner was the extremely tragic siege of Smolensk. There was also a poignant love storm between Helena and Catherine.

But if you compare this time with the dinner hosted by Prince Yanusz Laziviu, then the one in Smolensk is really not worth mentioning.

From the standpoint of the guest, Princess Helena’s birthday party invited only officials and nobles from Smolensk and nearby villages and estates. The highest status of them is only those who have the title of a duke and have performed their duties. The highest official position is nothing more than a sword officer. But at today's banquet, there were two princes alone, and countless other generals and colonels.

In front of the castle gate, Catherine and Cheorjin stood together. They lined up with the guards on both sides to check the guest invitations, while Victor assigned tasks in the castle.

After checking that the invitation was correct, a soldier pulled the guest horse or carriage to a temporary parking place-there were too many guests tonight, and the stables in the castle were not enough.

Catherine pointed to a strong man on and off a carriage and said:

"Hey, have you seen the man in the silver kaftan coat with a red belt around his waist? He is General Jan Sobieski of Lidaburg. Don't even think he is only twenty-six or seven years old. , But he was already well-known in the Republic. On the battlefield of Berestečko, his cavalry squadron first attacked the camp of Teguy Bai and cut the flag."

"That one?" Cheer Jin followed Catherine's hand and looked over. Because he was wearing a silver coat, Jan Sobieski was particularly conspicuous in the crowd, and Cheorchen quickly distinguished it.

The young General Jan Sobieski had a square face, his lips had an extremely thick beard, his forehead was broad, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle. Jan Sobieski's body is not very tall, in Chechen's eyes, Jan Sobieski is not even much taller than Mihavu. But his chest is extremely broad, like a wall.

Jan Sobieski didn't know that someone was watching him. After getting out of the carriage, instead of walking towards the gate, he walked straight to a carriage beside him, bowed to the woman and boy who got off the carriage, and started talking.

At this time, Catherine consciously introduced Cheerchen again:

"The lady and her child are the widows of the famous Prince Yarimé, Princess Galisadai and Prince Mihavishnevski. After the huge territory of Prince Yarimé fell to Ukraine, the princess His Royal Highness and the prince can only live on the little money left. For this reason, they don't even have the money to organize a decent funeral for the prince."

Before Catherine's words were finished, Jan Sobieski and Princess Galisadie had finished their brief conversation, and they walked side by side toward the gate of the castle. So Catherine had to shut her mouth temporarily.

When the three guests passed Chechen and Catherine, Catherine yelled "Salute!" The guards in front of the gate paid a uniform salute to Jan Sobieski and watched the three enter the castle. .

After the ceremony, Cheerchen asked Catherine: "Catherine, it hasn't been long since you came to Miatersk, how can you know so clearly about these great figures in the Republic?"

In response to Chechen’s question, Catherine answered: “These are all required courses for a noble family like Laziviu. Because Prince Boguslav will often deal with these people. Therefore, he must also be the prince’s guard. Understand the preferences and characteristics of these people. For example, the princess Garicedai just now, although Prince Yarime has passed away, the family tradition of Vichy Neveski’s family has also fallen, but the princess herself attaches great importance to pomp and etiquette. So when facing the princess, we have to show enough respect."

Cheorchen nodded seemingly.

At this time, Mihavu and Anjay came together.

The two knights also wore the most gorgeous clothes today.

The Mihavu knight is wearing a pair of yellow riding boots with gold-plated spurs; he is wearing a red uniform with a sword with a red gold guard at his waist; on his belt Here, he also inserted a scepter that symbolized the identity of the head. All in all, Mihavu's clothes are as majestic as a knight.

And Anjay wore a purple cloak with a yellow deerskin lined samurai suit inside. A saber hung around his waist. Like Mihavu, his belt also had a scepter inserted. . And Anjay’s beautiful beard is even more shiny with olive oil.

"Mihawu, Anzu." Cheerchen greeted him and shouted the names of his two friends happily, while the guard behind him stepped forward and took the reins of the two.

Anjay and Mihav jumped off their horses, and the three of them formed a group to talk.

When Cheerchen praised Mihavu for the beauty he wore today, Anjay laughed out loud.

"Our knight is here to hunt Yan today."

"Anjay, don't talk nonsense!" Mihau glared at Anjay, but his face turned red first.

"Mihawu, aren't you married yet?" Chechen was a little surprised. He thought that a nobleman of Mihav's age should have been married long ago.

"The enemy is not destroyed, why is home." Mihawuyi said solemnly.

"Come on, it's obviously that others look down on you." Anjay teased him.

At this moment, Mihau was on fire. He punched Anjay in the stomach and walked forward on his own.

"Chechen, I'll go in first. We'll talk later at the dinner party." Angeli clutched his stomach and hurriedly followed.

After that, Feodor Obukhović and Princess Helena also came. Since the reunion of Miatelsk and Catherine, Helena's condition has improved a lot, and her complexion has also recovered a lot.

When Catherine walked towards Helena happily, Feodor stepped forward and took Catherine’s wrist and kindly called Catherine her son-in-law~lightnovelpub.net~ Then, Feodor introduced loudly in the public. How much Catherine was highly regarded by the prince and the overlord, as if she was afraid that others would not know it. This also made Catherine extremely embarrassed.

In the end, Catherine finally sent her future father-in-law into the castle herself.

"City Lord Feodor has changed a lot of attitude towards you, Catherine." Cheer Chen said happily for Catherine.

But Catherine gave a wry smile. How could this former City Lord really like himself, but now Feodor has lost everything. He wants to curry favor with Prince Boguslav and the commander, so that he can be kind to himself.

The mechanical clock in the castle struck six times. Cheerchen and Catherine commanded the guards to start closing the gate, while the others moved the salute out.

According to the rules, the salute must be fired twenty times apart. The gunners lit the fuses of the artillery one by one. With the last shot of the cannon, the dinner officially began.

"Catherine, you go up first. I just stay here to clean up."

Cheor Chen and Catherine were also responsible for moving back to the armory after the artillery that was originally used as a salute was used up. Cheerchen kept looking into the castle after seeing Catherine's banquet, and knew that he was anxious to find Helena, so he took the initiative.

"Thank you so much, Cheerchen." Catherine happily agreed, and hurried into the castle without refusing.

After another hour, the artillery was finally moved back to the armory. Cheerchen wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to enter the castle. At this moment, a loud noise came out of the castle.

Then, a figure jumped from the balcony on the second floor.

"Stop him, Cheerchen!"

Someone shouted from the balcony. It was Victor's voice.
