by Corinne 17:30,Jan 18,2024


After seeing off Patton Sweet and his son, Adagio Swift immediately took Dustin and rushed to the National Guardian Duke Mansion.

The first invitation he sends out in person must be for Earnest!

Earnest is the uncle of the third prince!

As long as you take care of Earnest, why don't you worry about others not giving you gifts?

"Your Highness, there is something I want to say. I don't know whether I should say it or not?"

On the way, Dustin hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.

"That's all you say."

Adagio Swift smiled casually.

Dustin smiled bitterly to himself and said seriously: "Your Highness personally went to National Guardian Duke to deliver the invitation, which is a bit of a humiliation for himself."

"I know they all look down on me."

Adagio Swift pretended to sigh, and said quietly: "I also know that they will definitely not come to the banquet, but I just use my courtesy..."

Dustin suffocated slightly and stopped talking immediately.

Not long after, the two came to the National Guardian Duke.

At this time, the sky was almost dark.

"Sixth Prince?"

When they learned that Adagio Swift was coming, Earnest family was stunned for a moment.

What is the sixth prince doing here?

Are you here to apologize?

Even if you apologize, you should go to the Third Prince’s Mansion!

Why did you come to them?

"Let's go and have a look!"

Although Earnest couldn't understand it, he still called his family to greet him.

Even if they looked down on Adagio Swift, Adagio Swift was still the sixth prince.

If they didn't welcome the Sixth Prince's visit, they would be disrespecting the royal family!

"Welcome the Sixth Prince!"

Earnest brought his family to the door and was forced to salute Adagio Swift.

He was an important minister in the court, so he and his family did not need to kneel down to Adagio Swift.

But even bowing and saluting made him feel insulted.

"You don't need to be polite, National Guardian Duke."

Adagio Swift smiled "shyly" and said straight to the point: "I'm here to deliver an invitation to National Guardian Duke."

"invitation?"

Earnest was slightly startled, "Has your highness and Odelia Yule's wedding date been set?"

Earnest was talking, but he had no intention of inviting Adagio Swift in.

Adagio Swift didn't care, he shook his head and said: "It's not an invitation for a wedding, it's a new invitation for me to move into a new house. I plan to have a banquet with all the ministers in the court the day after tomorrow, and ask National Guardian Duke to show his respect."

With that said, Adagio Swift handed over the invitation again.

Earnest took the invitation, glanced at it symbolically, and was about to close the invitation when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

"This word..."

Earnest reopened the invitation and frowned secretly.

Why does this handwriting look familiar?

This is what I've been waiting for!

Adagio Swift secretly smiled in his heart, but pretended to be embarrassed on his face, "I know my handwriting is not good, so I specially asked Patton Sweet, the general of Zuotunwei, to write the invitation."

Patton Sweet?

Earnest face turned green.

He said why the handwriting looked so familiar!

It turned out to be written by Patton Sweet!

Patton Sweet is obviously with them!

Now, he went to write an invitation to Adagio Swift?

After all the invitations were sent out, everyone in the court knew that the third prince's people had written the invitations for the sixth prince!

Isn't this just a slap in the face to him and the third prince?

Earnest was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He only felt a burning pain on his face, and he secretly made up his mind to deal with Patton Sweet severely.

This bastard who eats everything inside and outside!

"National Guardian Duke, National Guardian Duke..."

Adagio Swift's voice sounded in Earnest ears again.

Earnest came back to his senses and said calmly: "Your Highness, I'm really sorry. The affairs of the court have been busy recently. I'm afraid I won't be able to attend your housewarming party."

Earnest's answer was completely within Dustin's expectation.

Dustin glanced at Adagio Swift silently and thought to himself: Why bother coming?

Why do you come here when you know you are humiliating yourself?

"it's okay no problem!"

Adagio Swift waved his hand, "As long as the ceremony is here."

What the hell?

Earnest choked slightly.

Is it okay if the gift arrives?

Damn it, is he here to blackmail me?

Looking at Earnest's expression, Adagio Swift seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed his words: "I'm not asking you to give a gift, I mean, as long as the courtesy is met..."

Is it okay if the etiquette is met?

Earnest and his family all looked at Adagio Swift funny.

Isn't this still a disguised form of asking them to give gifts?

This loser dares to take the initiative to let them give gifts?

You’ve grown up, right?

"No, no..."

At this time, Adagio Swift waved his hands again and said with a flushed face: "I want to say, I... my etiquette is up to the mark, you... you can do whatever you want..."

Adagio Swift said, deliberately showing a timid look.

Hearing Adagio Swift's words, Earnest almost jumped up and cursed.

As long as his etiquette is up to standard, let them do whatever they want?

Why the hell do they call them so casual?

The prince comes to deliver the invitation in person, isn't this a great courtesy?

The princes have already done this. If they didn't even show any expression and it reached the ears of Emperor Swift Wen, it would be because they didn't understand etiquette!

Earnest kept cursing in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face: "Don't worry, Your Highness, even if we can't be there the day after tomorrow, we will prepare some small gifts and send them to His Highness's house to congratulate His Highness on his move to the new house."

"ah?"

Adagio Swift eyes widened, and he waved his hands again and again: "I...I really don't want you to give me gifts."

"Your Highness, there is no need to explain, I will understand later."

Earnest said with a smile: "Your Highness's etiquette is so thoughtful, so of course we can't lose our etiquette!"

"this……"

Adagio Swift smiled sheepishly, "Then we'll leave first."

"Congratulations to Your Highness!"

Earnest shouted falsely, but his heart was filled with wild fire.

Looking at the invitation in his hand, he felt worse than eating a fly. He felt uncomfortable all over.

Unlike Earnest, Adagio Swift is very happy now.

Now he and the third prince are at odds with each other!

As the uncle of the third prince , Earnest gave gifts, how could others not?

hey-hey!

Another huge amount of income!

This is a gift for the prince, no matter how bad it is, it can't be any worse, right?

Anyway, I don’t have to take care of the wine and food, so I can make a profit without losing money!

Well, next one!

Adagio Swift felt happy in his heart. Regardless of Dustin strange eyes, he followed Dustin to Zhangge's hometown.

This time, Adagio Swift was more direct.

After explaining the purpose of his visit, he directly told Keto: "I just came from National Guardian Duke residence. National Guardian Duke said that there are many things going on in the court and he is not as polite as anyone. I hope Elder Statesman Keto..."

"I've had a lot of things happen these past two days!"

Keto interrupted Adagio Swift and said, "I am so polite that I don't know how to be polite. Please don't take it too seriously, Your Highness."

"oh……"

Adagio Swift looked disappointed, but in his heart he was filled with ecstasy.

Who cares about your arrival?

Just be polite!

Got another one!

Next, Adagio Swift took Dustin to several houses in succession.

With Earnest and Elder Statesman Keto taking the lead, everyone used the numerous affairs in the DPRK as an excuse to show courtesy.

After walking through several houses, Dustin was embarrassed for Adagio Swift, but Adagio Swift was very happy in his heart.

By the time they returned to the mansion, it was already very late.

Adagio Swift didn't even eat, so he insisted on going to the stables first.

"General Patton Sweet's horses do look better."

Adagio Swift touched his chin and muttered to himself.

Dustin heard this and couldn't help but feel a sharp twitch in his heart.

Just looks better?

This endurance and explosive power are completely unmatched by ordinary horses!

Adagio Swift thought for a while and then said to Dustin: "These two horses will be awarded to you and Reidar"

"Your Highness, you can't do it! This is too expensive!"Dustin said in fear.

"precious?"

Adagio Swift pretended to be confused, "How valuable can a horse be?"

"These are not ordinary horses!"Dustin shook his head and said, "From what I see, these two are both high-quality war horses worth hundreds of gold!"

"Is it so expensive?"

Adagio Swift was shocked.

One tael of gold is equivalent to one hundred taels of silver.

Doesn't that mean that he directly cheated those two people out of 20,000 taels of silver?

He knew that the horses owned by Patton Sweet and his son were certainly not cheap, but he did not expect them to be so expensive.

Have you traded Santana for Ferrari?

"It is indeed very valuable!"

Dustin nodded and said: "Besides, it has a price but no market!"

"That's okay!"

Adagio Swift thought for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Since I'm not good at riding, I don't need such a good horse, so I'll give it to you as a reward!"

Dustin wanted to refuse again, but Adagio Swift said firmly: "That's it!"

Dustin couldn't shirk it, so he had no choice but to thank him. He looked at Adagio Swift with a hint of gratitude and respect in his eyes.

Adagio Swift smiled casually, but secretly exclaimed in his heart, I have spent a lot of money!

You two bastards, don't act like idiots!

Otherwise, I will kill you all the way to the end of the world!
