Podarre Ríos, who was about to become the bridegroom, was still the governor of Tarentum before he set out. With the help of the Magi and the guidance of his father, Aloyos, he grew up quickly. In particular, the ability to handle government affairs has been greatly improved. After two months in Tarentum, he was able to manage the city independently, arranging and planning various operations. For three months, the Governor worked with ease.

He obeyed the king's and father's orders and set out for Thessaloniki, the capital of Macedonia, to return to the place where he was born. He had been away from his homeland for more than a decade, when he was still a young boy. Now that he has grown up, he has to take on the heavy responsibilities that Macedonia has given him. He needs to marry an exotic princess as an important link between the two in their alliance.

"I don't know what this Seleucid princess looks like. The princess of the empire shouldn't be too bad, who knows, maybe it's just as annoying as those girls. He was still thinking about it on the way.

When Podare Ríos left Tarentum, many people in the city went out of the city to bid farewell and send faithful wishes. This governor has a good reputation, and he has a lot of personal charm. In addition to reluctance, there is also a sensitive topic that people are talking about.

There are rumors in the city that Podare Rios is doing homosexuality, which is not confirmed. However, Portaré Ríos's youthful face, like an ancient carving, is very symbolic, but it is always cold. He's not that approachable, that's a fact. There are many young girls in Tarentum who adore and adore this Macedonian prince, but he is so majestic that it is extremely difficult to approach.

In the Antigonus family, it is really entangled with the boy. It is not uncommon for Prince Damasos of Macedonia to be truly gay. Aloyos and Thessaros got along very closely, and it was also said to be an affair. Could it be that now Podare Rios is also going to have an affair with this kind of plot?

As the saying goes, "No wind, no waves." ”

Podare Rios himself can always play with the children of the nobility of Macedonia and Rome, and the beautiful boys. This makes people look at it in their eyes and inevitably wonder. But he justified himself by saying:

"This is an old Macedonian tradition where the friendship between men is pure. Several boys who are kind to each other lie together, exchanging knowledge and wisdom. This sounds even more ambiguous, how can ordinary people understand?

"I'm afraid I don't have such good friends around. Now we are pure, intimate, talking about culture and knowledge, and talking about the affection of a kind of comrade-in-arms! ”

It seems that he is another Aloyos, with a thick military kiss. But he always seemed more composed.

He wanted to bring a few more companions back to Macedonia, but Aloyos only allowed him to bring a few dozen guards. Because the king himself ordered that the safety of Prince Podare Rios be guaranteed, he sent part of his own Praetorian Guard to escort the bridegroom. The main fleet and the Eastern Mediterranean fleet blocked the entire area of the sea crossing, and not a single big fish was ready to be released.

The wedding was held with great pomp and circumstance, and King Gueras himself attended the feast. The wedding was held in the banquet hall of the royal palace, which is particularly festive today, and the decoration of the palace is very luxurious and beautiful. People put on festive costumes, and the square in front of the palace sang and danced. The drummers worked hard, and the girls danced.

Athena, the princess of the Seleucid Empire, who is loved by thousands of people, is the bride today! On behalf of their royal family, the Seleucid prince Kasander personally handed over his sister to the Macedonian prince Podarerios. Representatives of the princes and nobles of Macedonia, civil and military courtiers gathered together, dressed in long robes or formal attire, holding flowers in their hands, and wishing a couple on both sides.

Podare Ríos finally met Athena, dressed in a white robe, a golden laurel wreath, and adorned with jewels. He politely took the slender hand of his bride Athena, who was graceful and graceful. He looked affectionately at his wife's gentle and bright eyes, and thought, "There is such a beautiful woman in the world." ”

Podare Rios lowered his head and kissed her hand, then her forehead and cheek. The Macedonian prince is handsome and dashing, with a young and handsome face like a beautiful boy in Greek mythology. In addition, he is gentle and gentlemanly. The young women present, including his sister, screamed, and they dreamed of a fairytale day.

At the wedding banquet, the jade plate delicacies, delicacies, different flavors of barbecue meat with mellow wine, can really be a full meal. A variety of brightly colored fruits, served in porcelain pots, make people appetite. Garras was overjoyed, he personally arranged the marriage for his grandson, and no other day was the day when the Antigonus family was so gathered, and none of them were left behind.

Guerras must be in high spirits, and he stood up,

"The first cup is for the widow's favorite children, Podare Rios and Athena!" "Bang~" went in...

The crowd cheered: "Forever together, a hundred years together!" "Give birth to a noble son early, and have a full house of children and grandchildren!" "Grow old together, love for a long time." Everyone took turns to toast and bless the dedication.

"The second cup is a toast to the family reunion, I hope we all have today every year, and we have a future every year." It's another bite.

Seeing this, Oonos hurriedly persuaded: "If you like wine, you should drink it slowly, today's mellow syrup tastes delicious and sweet, Brother Wang and drink it carefully." ”

Garras smiled heartily, and looked at the couple at the banquet in front of him, and his eyes narrowed with satisfaction, and his mouth blossomed with joy. Suddenly he remembered something, got up and said in a loud voice:

"Macedonia will always be prosperous and strong! Long live Macedonia! Cheers! ”

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live Macedonia! ”

Podare Rios sat next to the bride and from time to time stood up to thank the guests for their toasts. But he personally doesn't like to drink, and he doesn't let himself get drunk. In this he did not resemble Gueras and Aloyos.

After the toast, he sat down next to his wife, and on the big day, Podare Rios also smiled, looking very happy. Athena is a gentle and intelligent princess, and she is especially understanding. She was trying to find out about the groom next to her, and in addition to her beautiful face, she felt that this Macedonian prince had a heroic body and movements, and a pair of deep and keen eyes were the windows of the wisdom of the heart.

His smile couldn't hide his inner coldness, this foreign man didn't belong to the type of warm and cute, would he be good to himself? But he looked at me with such affection just now, and felt the sunshine and warmth. "It seems that the princess of Seleucids is not simple, she has the same name as Athena, the goddess of beauty and wisdom in Greek mythology.

Seventeen years old is the age of puberty, and Podare Rios is particularly happy today, and it seems that he is quite satisfied with his bride. Men and women are in love with each other and are attracted to each other. People in this area are often self-taught. Podare Rios must have been looking forward to the beauty of his new wife. I believe that the gentle, beautiful, and empathetic Athena will not disappoint him. Their union also officially marked the alliance between Macedonia and Seleucus.

After the wedding, Kasander left for Syria to bring this exciting good news to the kingdom. He also received nine warships donated by Macedonia when he left.

The Greeks played an important role in this exchange, and the Seleucids were naturally grateful. The Macedonian king of Gaylas did not have any bad feelings about the Greeks in the region, and he readily agreed to an armistice with Greece and the resumption of legal trade routes. Soon, Oonos will draw Greece into the arms of the allies.

In this way, a new Hellenistic alliance was formed between Macedonia and Greece and Seleucus, and the military and political power of Asia Minor was changed in an instant.
