Chapter 485: The Kingdom Situation
After sending them away, the triumphal banquet was finally prepared, and that evening William and Wella were dressed to attend it.
Several of his children also walked around the venue in luxurious clothes appropriate for their age.
Charlemagne's contributions on the battlefield of the Holy War are well known, and almost all the nobles and children of noble families have shown great respect for him.
The sons and daughters of the aristocracy led by Charlemagne gathered around him, chattering and complimenting Charlemagne, this is his team in the future, he has been playing with these eldest sons since he was a child, this is the way of survival that has been passed down from generation to generation by the nobles.
And the daughters of those aristocratic families looked at Charlemagne, who was handsome and handsome in front of them, and had established peerless feats.
In their opinion, the handsome, dashing, heroic and capable heir of the earl is simply the best candidate for a husband.
Under this thought, those aristocratic girls couldn't help but go to Charlemagne's side to make do, hoping to have a night of joy with Charlemagne.
Charlemagne was troubled by these girls, he didn't like these girls, William also told him since he was a child, as his son, the eldest son, was the heir to the title in the future.
He couldn't just choose among the daughters of the vassal family, and William was also very confident in his own strength, so what he said to Charlemagne was that his future wife, if not a princess, would definitely be the daughter of a duke or an earl, and there was no need to think about these women who could not provide him with any benefits and benefits.
Besides, Charlemagne didn't like these girls originally, his aesthetics were influenced by William, and he was somewhat similar to William, these aristocratic girls who could wipe off their faces were really not interested in him.
But he didn't show any impatience, and he just didn't pretend to say anything, he really didn't expect that such a feats on the battlefield of holy war would bring him such side effects.
Now don't talk about Denlenburg or the Tskma Kingdom, even if it is more than 20 kingdoms in the entire Holy Sect World, he is quite a famous character, and he is not just talking about being famous in the world.
Jia Yu and Shan Cun don't seem to be very suitable for such a noisy banquet, but also, the Yun Dynasty is very similar to the Celestial Empire in William's previous life, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a kind of civilization.
It's a completely different kind of banquet like this, which is more open-plan and purely for entertainment.
However, not everyone is happy, and the knights of the Inner House and their families also participate in this kind of banquet, which is the privilege of the Inner Knights.
This time the knights of the Inner House lost twenty men on the battlefield, that is to say, twenty more families lost their husbands and fathers.
The children of the knights of the Inner Mansion who had died in battle attended the banquet with mixed feelings, and they forced a smile and talked to the people next to them.
After a while, William clapped his hands, and the audience fell silent.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this time my knights of the Inner Mansion lost twenty people on the battlefield, they are all the strongest knights, the knights who are the most loyal to me, I am sad and sorry for their sacrifice, but while we are grieving, life still has to go on!"
"But these knights were born and died for me, and I will never let their families go uncared for after they die! The pension of 500 silver coins will be paid today, and the soldiers who died on the battlefield will also receive their pension, and today I will perform another canonization ceremony for the heirs of the knights of the Inner Palace! ”
"They will inherit their father's position and continue to serve as my Inner House Knights!"
"The sons and daughters of the knights of the Inner Mansion who died in the holy war this time are listed!"
William looked at the twenty eldest sons of the knights in front of him with a deep sorrow, and said, "Your father fought bravely on the battlefield, and they are worthy of the title of knight!" Their bodies have not rotted due to the cold weather, and I have brought them back, and they will enter the tomb of the Wallace family! ”
The eldest sons of the twenty knights of the Inner House couldn't help but burst into tears of excitement when they heard William's words, which were undoubtedly an affirmation of their lives, and it was also a privilege to enter the tomb of the Wallace family.
William drew his sword from his waist and placed it on the shoulder of the young knight who knelt before him.
"The king's oath
Swear by all the gods
To make my ambition clear
Don't bully the weak
Spend your time humblely
The battle that went through
Don't be afraid of strong enemies
All that is wrong
I'm going to cut it
Women and children are long
The war was done
Prison begging
Help
The woman was delicate
I don't do it
Colleagues say yes
Together
Be honest with your friends
Thought it was a gentleman
My dear
Faithful
Humility and loyalty
Courtesy, benevolence, and righteousness
The Eight Ways of Scholars
The heart is remembered
These words were repeated by the eldest son of the knight in front of him, and then said: "Blocking the glory of this sword, it is better to bend than to bend!" ”
After speaking, William tapped the seventeen or eighteen-year-old new knight of the inner palace on the shoulder three times, took the golden spur on the tray in the hand of the servant next to him, called to him, and said: "Please get up, from now on, you are the new knight of the inner palace!" Don't dishonor your father's bravery! ”
In this way, it took more than 20 minutes to complete the canonization of the twenty knights of the Inner Palace.
After these were over, William distributed the gold characters he had obtained this time and converted them into silver coins, about 1.5 million pieces, and gave them to the vassals, and after giving them to the vassals, he continued the grand feast.
Time passed quickly, almost a month had passed since William returned to the territory, and the reason why King Herchard died on the battlefield also spread in the Kingdom of Tskma.
It is said that after Queen Daileen learned the news, she fell into a coma in an instant, and her own flesh and blood, and the only son of King Brolin, died like this, and the throne of the Kingdom of Tskema was undecided.
At the same time, the nobles in the Tskema Kingdom also began to move, and those royal side branches that had some inheritance rights to the throne also began to contact the major nobles and vassals, and even William received some nobles to solicit him, hoping that William would support him on the throne, and Duke Bunkerson also had some changes.
However, William intends to wait and see, to be honest, he is also very interested in the throne of the Kingdom of Tskema, but he can't be too eager to avoid suspicion and then report to deal with him.
Queen Daileen was extremely sad, but she also had capital to fight for, after all, he was the queen of King Brolin, and the third in line to the throne besides King Herchard.
In this way, in the course of a month, there were already some members of the royal family who couldn't help but lead the army to start a melee, and the Duke of Bunkerson was also Chen Bing on the border between Bunkerson Park and the Kingdom of Tskema.
William doesn't plan to get involved for the time being, to be honest, he doesn't have the right to inherit the Tskma Kingdom, so he has to wait until the Tskma Kingdom is beaten to the ground, clean up the mess, and find a way to take the throne of the Tskma Kingdom.
Anyway, this war for the throne is basically impossible to tell the winner without a year or two, and William has time to wait.
