Chapter 310: One Night // Love Earl
The two couples had different expressions.
Grand Duke Ivan's expression was as cold as an iceberg, but Wen Ying looked worried.
The other couple, Grand Duke Litus, looked flat and did not look a trace of joy, but the Marquis of Luquecia was smiling and full of happiness.
The wedding ceremony was about to begin, and below the ninth-floor palace, there were about 100,000 Earls of the Protoss, and it was quiet. It's just that the expressions of the two couples can be sensed by their divine senses even among the counts of the first-floor palace who are extremely far away from the ninth-story palace.
Where the Dream Palace is located, there is only one place where the people of the Protoss can use their divine power, and that is the Dream Palace Hall.
At this moment, although the counts kept their mouths closed, they were communicating with each other--- when Emperor Eric announced that the fourth happy event was the wedding of Grand Duke Ivan and Wen Ying, the first human dragon lord of the Heavenly Kingdom, two weddings, held at the same time, everyone was shocked on the spot!
No one has ever married a Protoss or a Terran! Even if Wen Ying became the first human dragon lord in the Heavenly Kingdom, she was still a human race!
Count Alaric looked at Wen Ying in a white wedding dress, a trace of burning flashed in his sapphire eyes, and his eyes returned to calm.
As the most favored count of Grand Duke Ivan, Count Alaric naturally sat in the eighth floor of the palace, and was in the first row near the ninth floor of the palace.
Starting from the eighth floor of the palace of the Dream Palace, to the lowest first floor of the palace, except for the steps paved with red carpet on the central axis, on both sides of the steps, the counts of the Protoss sat in rows in a neat and dignified manner. In front of each row of counts was an extremely long rectangular snow-white crystal table. On the crystal table, delicious food and wine are all over the table.
The counts of the eighth-story palace are either the wealthy families of the various clans, or the most favored by the Grand Dukes, such as the rising stars Count Alaric and Count Taylor.
The position of Count Taylor is next to Count Araric. Earl Taylor wore his long red hair today, and there was a faint worry in his calm expression.
A few days ago, on the plain of blue silk, Grand Duke Litus was sad for Wen Ying, how could he hold a wedding with the Marquis of Luquesia a few days later? In the eyes of Count Taylor, this wedding, even if it takes place sixteen years later, the bride of the Grand Duke of Litus, if not Wen Ying, will not be the Marquis of Luquesia.
Count Taylor's divine sense sensed that even in the first row of the eighth-story palace, it was impossible to see the expressions of the two couples with the naked eye. Count Taylor's divine sense sensed past the two couples and stopped at the face of Emperor Eric on the black crystal throne.
Emperor Eric's handsome and extraordinary face was filled with satisfaction and joy.
Remembering that late at night when Wen Ying appeared in the Blue Silk Plain, Grand Duke Litus teleported from Silver Lily Castle to the Dream Palace. Earl Taylor thought to himself, "The only person in heaven who can make Archduke Litus change his mind is Emperor Eric. "Earl Taylor is just curious, what is the reason for Archduke Litus to back down so much? In doubt, he heard the telepathic voice of Count Alaric beside him: "Taylor, that small island in the sea of light and darkness is mine." ”
Count Alaric stepped on the eighth floor of the palace today, and the first time he saw Count Taylor, he had to make a gamble with him, and the fourth happy event must be related to Wen Ying.
"You won, next time we meet, I'll give you the island deed." Earl Taylor spoke to Count Alaric. He thought to himself, "Anyway, the island you won from me, Archduke Litus will compensate me with other islands, and I have nothing to lose." Thinking like this, Earl Taylor's divine sense returned to Wen Ying's face, and he thought: "Today's wedding, Wen Ying seems to be reluctant, at least, this can make Grand Duke Litus feel a little comforted." ”
"Wait a while, there will definitely be an old earl who opposes Wen Ying becoming the Grand Duchess." Count Alaric excitedly telegraphed to Count Taylor: "Taylor, do you want to gamble again, which count will speak first?" ”
"Excuse me. I've already lost an island. Earl Taylor telepathized in response.
Earl Taylor felt helpless. In the eyes of Count Taylor, Count Alaric is simply a strange flower among the counts.
After the end of the Holy War, Count Alaric was favored by Grand Duke Ivan. However, this earl loves two things the most: one is to gamble, and he has fun with the other. As long as there is nothing to do every day, the ** of ten is spent in the casino, and he is keen on all kinds of gambling. The second is women. The chamberlain of the Blue Castle is said to be the most frequent in the continent of Emeriken. And Count Alaric has countless female lovers of the Protoss, and he is even called "the prince of love in the first **** night".
The Protoss described Count Alaric as: "Count Alaric is not in the gambling *****, but in bed." ”
Count Alaric is extremely brave and good at fighting in the holy war, although his divine power is not as good as those old counts who have existed for 10,000 years, but among the young counts, he is the best.
If you want to blame it, it's the Heavenly Kingdom of the Light Age, the peaceful and prosperous era, and the people of the Protoss have existed for an extremely long time, and for a long time, Count Alaric can't fight, so he has to find other ways to pass the time. In his opinion, there is nothing more fun than gambling, and there is nothing more pleasant than beauty.
Even in the eyes of Count Taylor, Count Alaric is so bohemian, it does not affect Archduke Ivan's favor to Count Alaric in the slightest.
Grand Duke Ivan favored Count Alaric, in addition to his bravery and good fighting, there is also a very simple reason, that is, Count Alaric's absolute loyalty to Archduke Ivan.
For Count Alarik, the affairs of Ivan's generation were always more important than gambling and women - and in carrying out the orders of Grand Duke Ivan, Count Alaric was like a different person.

As a witness, the old Count of Esmeida was dressed in a black robe, unadorned and extremely plain - a traditional attire. It is said that in ancient times, the witnesses who officiated at the wedding of the Holy Father and the Virgin were also dressed in plain black robes.
At this moment, the old Count Esmeida faced the newcomers and the congratulators. The bride Wen Ying is on her right side, and the groom, Grand Duke Ivan, is on her left.
As for Emperor Eric, Empress Tribis, Archduke Erica, Archduke Reeves, Archduke Quirrell, and King Edward, as well as Alice, they were still in the most honorable place in the ninth floor of the palace facing south, and their thrones, on the high platform, were much higher than the positions of the two couples, so to speak, they were looking down on the wedding.
"Holy Light Source, Holy Father, we are here to witness the blessing of the marriage of the married couple and the wedding. May the flesh of the two be one," said the old Count of Esmeida, pausing with a somewhat strange expression, "May they love one another, help each other, teach one another, and trust one another, until the marriage is dissolved or death." ”
"When the marriage contract is about to be consummated, if there is any reason against them entering into the marriage contract, please raise it immediately, or remain silent forever."
"In the name of the Holy Father, I command you to confess your thoughts before the divine source." [1] Even at this moment, the voice of the old Count of Esmeida was still delicate and soft, and the originally serious testimony was actually said by her as if it were **. The old Count of Esmeida paused: this is a necessary step in the wedding, and the witnesses need to be silent at this time, so that the dissenting person can speak. "Since—" The old Count of Esmeida smiled coquettishly, and was about to speak, when a calm voice came from the eight-story palace: "I object. ”
