Chen Ran looked at the most conspicuous person on the dance floor naturally.

Her short, shiny black hair was neatly combed back to the back of her head, her figure was straight and she looked extremely energetic. She seemed to be in her 30s, but Duke Grom, who was not present at all, was already 50 years old.

"I'm glad you all come to my 50th birthday and hope to bring you a special night."

The music began to sound, and Duke Grom walked down from the stage, picked up a goblet with red wine from the waiter's plate, and first politely clinked glasses with the senior imperial officials in the front.

There are also orders for this conversation. Those with high identities talk first, and basically they clinked glasses one by one. After chatting for a while, they greeted some of the second-class nobles casually. However, most of them were in a posture of clinking glasses in the air, which was considered to say hello to everyone.

Seyya, who was eating, wiped the corner of her mouth and said to Chen Ran on the side: "To be honest, I don't like this guy very much."

If you dare to say bad things about the Prime Minister at such a dance, Saiya seems to have some personality. Being able to say such words in front of Chen Ran is at least considered as a friend.”

"What do you say?"

Seyabbi's posture and hummed gently between his nose: "If you can talk to him, you will understand yourself. Some things that are said in your mouth will be vulgar."

This is a bit interesting, but Chen Ran didn't care, and he had no intention of going forward.

There are a group of dukes and marquis guys on the top, and they are all old, so it is really hard to come forward to find a common language. Their conversation is not about tax rates, high-level imperial affairs, etc., and professionalism is tight. Chen Ran, a novice, is only concerned about some things about the wind and snow, and he is really not interested in that kind of topic.

Hopefully, today I just came here to make some soy sauce. The noble prime minister should not remember a little person like him. Maybe it was just a random note.

However, Chen Ran obviously underestimated his presence...

When Duke Grom said hello to a group of middle-level nobles, he seemed to remember a guest he invited, looked around and said, "Is Chen Ran, the priest of the church, here?"

As soon as this statement came out, there was a lot of discussion around him, discussing who Chen Ran was.

Chen Ran is famous, but it is limited to the area of ​​Shuguang Academy. Chen Ran really didn't expect that the high-ranking Duke Grom would mention himself here.

Chen Ran picked up a goblet as if he was decent, and even mistakenly took it to the cup that Saiya had drunk and rushed up, and quickly called out, "Prime Minister, I am Chen Ran, I don't know what to do?"

"So you are Chen Ran." Duke Grom stroked his short beard, looked at Chen Ran, and said, "I didn't expect to be so young."

As he spoke, he felt a little disappointed tone.

Chen Ran shook his eyebrows calmly, looking at the prime minister who seemed to be a little uncomfortable to greet. He was not a novice, and spontaneously began to smooth things over: "What kind of existence should the prime minister have?"

Grom smiled and said, "I think I should be older, so that the Bishop of Carloten's Church can highly recommend newcomers to the Holy Church. It should not be this kind of momentum. I'm called you this time, but I'm actually very interested in some of the gain spells of the Holy Church. I heard that it can make people have better spirits and better health."

"Master, I have some clumsy little magic, although I have no other ability. I still have this ability."

The colorful light of the disease-relieving technique flashed between Chen Ran's fingers. After increasing the level by a large number, Chen Ran's spell effect was also a little better than before.

A large-scale disease-relieving technique begins to shine with Duke Grom as the center, and colorful stardust begins to circle, interacting with the pores in the human body with energy.

The vitality felt is active in the body of this group of people. With the power of disease prevention techniques, a large amount of impurities in the body are removed, and both skin and metabolism are accelerated. The skin is brightened and the face looks healthy.

This is not over yet.

The sacred power, quiet light, and the fire of the soul flashed one after another, dazzlingly beautiful. The obvious effect improved the guests around them stunned and felt their abundant abilities.

At least, Duke Grom in front of him, from his original appearance in his thirties, makes people feel as energetic as he is less than thirty, and the aristocrats who are benefiting each other are also.

Duke Grom moved his body, and he became much lighter, nodding and said, "It seems that I am awkward. I have been so relaxed by these few spells. The spells of the Holy Church are indeed well-known."

The Duke moved his wrist and said to Chen Ran with satisfaction: "I just miss someone like you. Come to do things like me. If you act well, you will naturally not treat you badly."

That lofty tone made Chen Ran raise his eyebrows calmly.

Duke Grom personally recruited him, which surprised the middle-level nobles on the side.

The Prime Minister is fifty years old. Judging from his spirit, he is probably not a problem to be in power for more than twenty years. His Majesty is old and has a minor illness. Most of the matters have been handed over to the Prime Minister in power. If he could catch up with this line, he might think he could fly to the emperor.

But Chen Ran felt a little unhappy.

Duke Grom was indeed a famous figure in the empire, but he gave Chen Ran the feeling that he did not have the prestige and aura of a real power person, nor the sense of stability that he could gain power by relying on his true strength.

Moreover, he did not feel like he valued Chen Ran, but more like a massage boy. If you have something to do, give him a spell to cheer up, just like saying, "Well, you have some ability, let me hang out with my elder brother."

Now he is no longer the guy who was submissive before. He is also used to a free life and is not very happy to do things for others.

Chen Ran said respectfully: "It is my honor to be able to do things for you, Prime Minister, but I am in the mission of the Holy Church and have important things in my life, so I cannot serve you. But if I were there, I would naturally not refuse a word from my lord."

Chen Ran's tactful refusal made the Prime Minister seem a little unhappy. Duke Grom said bluntly: "I admit that the Holy Church is an interesting place. Its scale is not smaller than the City of Dawn, but it is only a city. How can it be compared with a vast empire? I promise that doing things under my hands is definitely much more comfortable than the bishop or something."

Even a tone of no refusal. When he said this, Duke Grom's patience seemed to have reached a limit. If he was ungrateful, with his current identity, Chen Ran might not be so relaxed to be able to make a good fortune in the imperial capital in the future.

Chen Ran blinked secretly, and suddenly remembered what the guy Seyan said before. Chen Ran seemed to understand what he meant.

Faced with such a big man, the temporary attachment may not be effective. The Prime Minister's purpose of recruiting Chen Ran must be to be a personal senior servant. It is not something that can be handled by just having a free job. Promising at will will only offend people even more.

Therefore, when it is time to refuse, you still cannot hesitate, although you don’t know what kind of dilemma you will face next.

Just as Chen Ran was about to say something and was about to refuse again, a clear sound of high heels approached here, and the footsteps seemed particularly clear.

"Sorry, Prime Minister, this guy is already my person. I think you, you shouldn't have come to me to steal people."

The one who appeared in everyone's sight was a beautiful and charming woman.

The black dovetail dress looks elegant, with long hair tied into a braid behind the head, giving it a bit of royal grace. The two large silver rings on the earlobes add a bit of charm to it, and the eyes are a bit sharp.

This is a cold and beautiful woman with a strong aura. Her appearance made the air around her stagnate a little.

Chen Ran felt that this woman looked familiar...

When Duke Grom saw the visitor, his brows moved and then put on a welcoming smile.

Judging from the Duke's performance, this woman's status is obviously not low.

"It is my honor to visit the eldest princess in person, making this dance even more lively. I didn't expect that he was your subordinate, and it was my misogynistic one, so I'll punish you for a drink."

After saying that, Duke Grom really finished a glass of red wine.

Chen Ran was stunned for 2.2 seconds.

Princess? Sister Mina?

Chen Ran looked at the woman who appeared in time.

It was impossible to tell, it was really impossible to tell that Mina, the academic director who took off the pair of large-framed glasses, had such a momentum. There were two people in front and behind, completely suppressing everyone in the field.

Some people have only a small change in details, but they have transcended to another new realm.

This eldest princess is such a woman.

The eldest princess stopped in front of Prince Grom, with a slightly curved curve on her lips to show her birthday: "I came late tonight. I hope you didn't disappoint you. I came in a hurry today and didn't have time to bring gifts. I hope the Duke will not be surprised."

"Where is it, the eldest princess visits in person. This is already a great deal of face. How dare I ask for too much?"

The eldest princess smiled and then turned around and looked at Chen Ran.

"It's not a shame to do things for me. If anyone wins over you in the future, just say I won't."

"Yes, yes, yes... Your Highness, Princess..."

Chen Ran resisted the urge to sweat and quickly bowed and responded.

Two big men stood in front of him, and neither of them could offend him. Chen Ran really felt like he was bullshit.

The eldest princess turned back and performed a royal etiquette to Duke Grom, saying, "Okay, I'll show up and say hello to the Duke to prove that I've been here. There is still a little thing to do, so I won't accompany you."

It was almost neat, and perhaps only this eldest princess dared to talk to the prime minister. The eldest lord made a gesture to Chen Ran, "Come here, have something to say to you."

Chen Ran made a sorry leave ceremony to Duke Grom, and followed the eldest princess to the perimeter of the dance floor, away from the hustle and bustle.
