With the death of Carol I, the Romanian people were plunged into grief. Three days later, during the state funeral in honor of the king, more than 200,000 people spontaneously took to the streets to mourn the monarch who led Romania to independence.

It should be pointed out that because of the outbreak of the great war in Europe now, and the preparation time for this funeral is relatively short. As a result, there were few foreign monarchs, only his cousin, King Constantine I of Greece, came to attend, and the rest of the country sent envoys or were replaced by ambassadors. Crown Prince Eder, who is now regent, is not dissatisfied with this, because Romania itself has not acted on a large scale for this reason.

After sending off an old king, Romania will also welcome a new king, and these guests who have come from afar to attend the king's funeral will change into dark clothes that represent the heaviness of sorrow and change into a festive place, and some can participate in Eder's coronation ceremony.

Just the day after the burial of the old King Carol I, on October 14, in the Romanian parliament building, Eder prepared to be crowned King of Romania.

Why was he crowned in the Romanian parliament, which cannot fail to mention Eder's father, Carol I. Previously, because it was the Romanian parliament that invited Carol, who was still a prince at the time, to be the king of Romania, and he was crowned in the parliament, so as the successor of the old king, Eder also had to be crowned in the parliament. For the crown prince, this is only a matter of procedure, and in order to take care of the parliamentarians who do not have much real power now, it is not a big deal to satisfy them.

"Hurry up, the Prime Minister is still waiting for me outside, I need to be in Parliament before 9:10."

Edel couldn't help but urge as he watched the servants add pendants to his clothes. Now he was dressed in a royal orthodox dress that looked like he had come from the Middle Ages, which made him feel weird.

"Your Majesty will be fine soon, and only this belt pendant will remain."

Talking to Eder's busy servant about taking out a sapphire pendant.

After finally getting the servant busy, Edel went to the next room and saw his wife, Sophie Marie, with a servant tending to her skirt, so he asked. "How long will it take?"

The servant, who had just straightened his skirt, replied. "Your Majesty is already well."

Edel immediately pulled his wife and spoke. "We should go, or the prime minister will be in a hurry."

Eder got up at 7 a.m. for the coronation today, but the traditional royal dress was so cumbersome to put on that he stood in front of the mirror for almost an hour, and now he brought his wife with him.

The Prime Minister, who was waiting at the door, looked at Mr. and Mrs. Eder and hurriedly stepped forward to speak. "Your Highness, let's go, time is not too much."

Facing his own prime minister, Eder still spoke politely. "I've kept you waiting."

"Then let's get in the car."

Several people got into the royal motorcade and rushed to the parliament under the leadership of the Praetorian Guard.

By the time they arrived at the council, the time was almost up. Edel walked into the council hall with his wife. Here he will receive the crown and scepter given to Romania by the President of Parliament, Jan Snekuk, and take the oath of oath to become king.

To the music of the Romanian national anthem, "Wishing the King a Long Life", the president of parliament, Jan Snekuk, stood on a stage that had been prepared long ago and addressed the surrounding parliamentarians. "The Kingdom of Romania has become independent and prosperous under the leadership of His Majesty Carol I, but His Majesty has left us for the kingdom of heaven, so we need a new king. Now Crown Prince Eder is the king we need, he is smart and hardworking, and he is very capable, and everyone who has sat down in the past few years should feel the experience of the crown prince who has worked hard for Romania. So we now unanimously hail the new king of Romania. ”

Led by the Speaker of Parliament, Jan Sneicock, the members present all called the Crown Prince's name in unison.

"Your Majesty Eder."

"Your Majesty Eder."

"Your Majesty Eder."

Eder also stepped onto the podium at their call, and he raised his hand to the councillors around him with a smile. The parliamentarians fell silent as Eder walked up to Speaker Jan Snecook.

Speaker Jan Snecooke spoke to Eder with the crown in his hand. "I hand over to you the crown representing the Romanian people, and I hope that under your leadership Romania will become stronger and stronger."

Edel took the crown and spoke. "I will make Romania proud of me. It will also make Romania better than before. ”

With that, he carried the crown over his head and took the scepter. Speaker Jan Snecooke then knelt down on one knee and put his hand on his chest and said the oath to Eder. "I am willing to follow Your Majesty's struggle for the ideals of Romania, and may the light of the Kingdom of Romania shine on this land."

The Speaker was joined by all the members present. No matter how unhappy they are with the royal family taking away power, they must now be respectful to the new king, who they are counting on to leave them with some dregs of power.

Eder knew too well what these parliamentarians were thinking. In his previous life, he had seen a lot of negative news about the parliament, and the government in the previous life also had its own characteristics of the councillors, that is, the people's representatives, also known as the representatives of the raised hands. With this role model, Eder is not actually interested in democratic politics, and it is estimated that he will not consider it until he is old, but these people are afraid that they will not see that scene.

After they took their oaths, Edel brought a smaller crown to the head of his wife, Sophie Marie. By this time the ceremony had come to an end, and Patriarch Bardockvin I blessed the new king on behalf of God.

At 10:30 a.m., Eder, dressed in a full robe, wearing a crown and holding a scepter, appeared on the balcony with his wife, Sophie Marie, and waved to the crowd waiting outside Parliament Square. The enthusiastic crowd was kindled by Eder's enthusiasm, and they all cheered and paid their respects to the new king, and the scene was lively for a while.

At this lively moment, Prime Minister Bulesyanu whispered to the new king. "The representatives of all countries want to be able to visit His Majesty in private, and I don't know how to answer?"

Eder did not reply to the Prime Minister, and he waited until he returned to the house. "Let's just say that I have too much work now, and I don't have any ideas other than congratulations."

Eder knew that this was another ploy to win over Romania to his advantage, he really didn't think about joining this war now, wouldn't it be good for Romania to do this now, and it would be good to earn some war money from both sides to supplement Romania's strength. You must know that in the first three years, millions of people died on both sides, and there was no result, and it is estimated that the situation will be turbulent if Romania dies by 500,000, so he is not so stupid.

After Eder's speech, Prime Minister Brettianu knew what to do, and now he also thinks that it is too early to join the battlefield, and it is better to develop it.
