"Of course. How could I refuse your invitation? As long as it doesn't cause you any trouble."

This is indeed Ron's truest thought. Michelle was able to sneak into the high-ranking nobles' dance, and she must have put in a lot of effort.

"Haha, no, don't worry. If you want to go, I'll be relieved." Michelle laughed happily a few times, and then talked about the dance.

"Speaking of which, the dance was originally held in the college. His Highness Baird changed the venue to the palace and established a hierarchy. I really don't know why." Michelle talked about her dissatisfaction with the prince.

"Wait a minute, is the second prince you are talking about still studying at the Noble Academy? His Majesty the King is already 60 years old, right? Calculating the time, this is His Highness Baird." Ron suddenly felt that he had discovered something.

Michelle was stunned for a moment. When she saw Ron's eyes, she shook her head with a smile and explained in a low voice: "Ron, you misunderstood. Your Highness Baird is not Princess Karaman's child. Karaman did not leave any heirs after she became the princess." , I heard that he never participates in any social activities.”

"Prince Baird is 18 years old this year. Like me, he will graduate in a few months."

Seeing Ron's lack of knowledge in this area, he introduced the members of the royal family, "His Royal Highness the First Prince Felix is ​​twenty-seven years old. He is the son of the First Princess and the legitimate heir to the throne."

Speaking of this, Michelle's voice became even lower, "Although His Highness Felix is ​​the first heir, I heard that His Majesty the King does not like him, but prefers the second prince, His Highness Baird."

"Why is this? His Highness Felix has a bad style?" Ron asked in surprise.

Michelle shook her head, "On the contrary, His Highness Felix has outstanding abilities. He once graduated with the top score in the academy, and later participated in the government affairs of the kingdom, which was highly praised by the ministers."

These words made Ron even more confused. He had chatted with King Meredith for a few words. In his impression, he was not a fatuous king, but a very shrewd king. He asked curiously about his doubts.

Michelle sighed: "Well, His Majesty the King and the First Princess were in a political marriage, and their relationship was not harmonious. To be more precise, they were jealous. Later, His Majesty the King met the current Second Princess, and the two fell in love. She fell in love and neglected the first princess even more, resulting in the current situation."

The corner of Ron's mouth twitched slightly, "Do you know this kind of thing?"

Michelle smiled forcefully, "I have a special source of information. However, this kind of thing is just hearsay. It's hard to say whether it is true."

"The only thing that is certain is that His Majesty the King really prefers His Royal Highness the Second Prince, otherwise he would not be allowed to hold a ball in the palace." Michelle said firmly.

Ron nodded, sighing that things in the palace were really complicated. Fortunately, he doesn't need a political marriage, and no one cares about his marriage.

for freedom!

"Originally, I invited someone from the last song and dance theater to perform live at the academy, but the theater owner said that person had left. I felt it was a pity at the time. However, now that the dance venue has been changed to the palace, it doesn't matter anymore."

Michelle said, and Ron thought of the ethereal and clean sound he heard last time at the cabaret theater.

Gone? It's a pity indeed.

"It's almost time, Ron, let's go." Suddenly, Michelle stood up and said to Ron.

"Where to go?"

"Of course I'm going to the prom. You won't regret it." Michelle looked like she was going to be angry.

"It's today!"

Ron didn't expect that the ball Michelle mentioned was held today. He just came out of the palace in the morning and was going to it now.

The two of them spoke to Regan, then went out and got on the carriage to go to the palace.

As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw many luxury carriages parked nearby. Family flags with various patterns were erected on the carriage roofs, representing the identities of those attending the ball.

After getting off the carriage, Michelle led Ron to walk quickly in one direction. When Ron was confused about how he could get in without an invitation letter in his hand, a clear and angry female voice came.

"Michelle, why are you here? The dance is about to start." The speaker was a sweet girl with long wavy pink-blond hair, and a familiar figure stood beside her.

"Sorry, I'm late, let's go in quickly." Michelle said simply.

The girl saw Ron behind him and knew the reason for coming so late. Michelle had told her about it.

"First meeting, Baron Arnold."

The girl was the first to say hello, and Michelle said: "Time is tight, let's wait until we get in to get to know each other formally."

"Okay, Marina, let's go in." The girl said to the person next to her. The familiar figure was Michelle's sister, Marina.

She smiled at Ron and followed the girl in front.

Michelle: "Let's follow."

Ron and Michelle followed the two girls in front to the gate of the palace. Ron saw the girl handing a beautiful invitation letter to the gate guard.

"Countess Astrid, please come in."

The guard returned the invitation letter and let them go, and then the three of them followed Miss Astrid into the palace. By now, Ron knew what Michelle said.

It turns out that you are eating soft rice!

What about the sunny and cheerful boy?

I was wrong about you, Michelle!

"Ron, why are you staring at me with such a strange look?" Michelle noticed the gaze and asked doubtfully.

"It's your illusion. Leave quickly, or you'll be late."

"Yeah?"

Not long after, Ron and his party arrived at the venue where the ball was held, which was a spacious and luxurious palace.

The entire hall is beautifully decorated, with red carpets, magic crystal lanterns, and various food and wine.

There were many musicians playing beautiful music nearby, matching the atmosphere of the dance party.

Ron looked at it as soon as he walked in. Whether it was before or now, this was his first time to participate.

Worth remembering.

Many aristocratic children chatted with each other at the venue and raised their glasses. These people are all high-ranking nobles. They will inherit their respective titles and assume the future of the kingdom. They will be a small microcosm of the future affairs of the kingdom.

Ron and others came to the side and had no intention of participating.

"First time we meet, Baron Arnold, I have often heard Michelle talk about you." Astrid maintained the demeanor of a noble daughter very well.

"It's our first time meeting you, Miss Astrid. Please understand that there was no greeting just now," Ron said.

"You are serious."

The two of them were not familiar with each other and just exchanged some simple greetings. Finally, Astrid said: "Then Miss Marina and I will go elsewhere. I wish you a pleasant stay."

Although it was their first meeting, Ron had a very good impression of this wealthy lady, who was cultivated and knowledgeable. He patted Michelle's shoulder gently and suddenly felt a little envious.

Michelle was confused by the sudden move. He did not forget the purpose of inviting Ron here today, and immediately introduced him to some noble nobles with extraordinary status at the ball.

Ron listened silently and glanced towards the dance floor. Suddenly he saw a girl with long black hair in the corner of the dance. There were no other people around her, she was just quietly sipping wine.

With skin as white as snow, a cold expression, and a black carved dress, this appearance and outfit reminded Ron of a person.

Prime Minister of the Kingdom——Marquis Noches.

Seemingly noticing Ron's gaze, Michelle's voice came, "That is the second daughter of the Marquis of Noches family, Miss Ulyas."

Sure enough, she is the daughter of the prime minister. Do the Nochis family like black clothes?

At this time, the dance gradually became quiet, and everyone looked at the same place.

"Prince Baird has arrived, but why is the person beside him not Miss Theresa?"

Listening to Michelle's confused whispers next to him, Ron looked towards the direction of the steps, where two figures were slowly walking down.
