Chapter 567: Coronation Ceremony
This was a common occurrence, and although William had not encountered such a thing before, it was because he had not found his own family before.
And some nobles are not too familiar with William, and they are embarrassed to arrange people to William, and although these people are not familiar with William, after all, there are some relatives, and they have no territory in their hands to arrange heirs, but William has here, and he can find a fief or position for his children who have no suitable arrangements, which is also a very good way to deal with it.
The nobles usually attach great importance to kinship, because no matter how much you usually make enemies with the outside world, once your subordinates rebel or invade from outside, you only need to hide in the castle for a while, then your relatives and I will quickly bring troops to support you.
Therefore, once they are developed, the nobles will never forget their relatives, and in the eyes of many people, relatives, or brothers and cousins, are far more reliable than ordinary vassals.
However, it is also true that except for a few extremely ambitious and ungrateful nobles who will covet the territory and status of their relatives, most people will be loyal to their relatives and kings.
William was no exception, and even though the Wallace family was supposed to have a Grand Duchy, there were many poor relatives who did not have an arrangement.
After greeting for a while, exchanging feelings with his mother, and after learning that his relatives wanted a way out of his place, William happily agreed to their request.
After all, William has a kingdom, grassroots officials are very scarce, and he doesn't want all his vassals to be nobles who have been from outside, and William is still more happy to have a certain number of blood vassals.
He said to his father and mother, as well as to all the relatives present: "I deserve more of my blood relatives to be treated better as the ruler of a country now!" “
"My dear relatives, I have agreed to all your wishes, but I must speak first, and I will assume as much responsibility and title as I have as much talent as I have!"
"If you don't have talent, I won't sacrifice my national strength to arrange your position, if your talent is enough, I will make you my vassal because of our blood relationship, and give you a rich territory to consolidate my rule!"
"But if you don't have enough talent, I won't entrust you with important tasks, and I'll give you a more honorable position at most, understand?"
William had to say it first, so as not to upset some people when the time came.
These people nodded when they heard William's words, in their opinion, it was a supreme honor for their children to be able to do things for the king, not to mention the opportunity to become a vassal of the king.
It was a great conversation, and it was only after his relatives had left that William had a good conversation with his mother.
"Oh, my dear little William!" Mrs. Wallace looked at William carefully, then took him in her arms and wept supremely: "Do you know how painful your mother was when you disappeared? Now you're finally back, and you're a noble king! ”
"You are my pride, my son, you are the greatest pride of my life!"
William was a little embarrassed to be held by Mrs. Wallace, but William felt a strong maternal love from her, the eyebrows, eyes and facial features of the two sides were so similar, and a feeling of blood connection came from William's body.
He involuntarily shouted, "Mother......"
Mrs. Wallace cried even more sadly when she heard William's voice, she was venting her lovesickness for so many years.
Archduke Wallace was also very emotional on the side, he was prepared for this scene, after all, William was Mrs. Wallace's favorite youngest son.
Soon, on March 15, 1234 A.D., almost all the invited nations and lords arrived in Denlenburg.
The kings of the kingdoms of Lillard and Ribourne, as well as the kingdom of the White Rose, were all present, King Leonac sent a mission of the highest level, and Merlin and Arthur of the Kingdom of Carmellot also rushed to Denlenburg to congratulate them.
The Empire, the largest power in the mainland, also sent a delegation to participate in the coronation ceremony, which shows that the first and second powers in the mainland all recognized William's identity.
To William's surprise, the kingdom of Arisera, far eastern, was under a tsunami of Piars, and their king, Bedwin IV, brought his entourage to the meeting.
This really surprised William, after all, the kingdom of Arisera could almost be said to be stormy at this time, and the offensive of the powerful Sejika dynasty was almost irresistible to them.
It stands to reason that he, the king, should be fighting to the death against the enemy at home, rather than coming thousands of miles away to participate in the coronation of his own king.
However, William still treated him and Arthur with great courtesy, personally receiving Bedwin IV and Arthur with the same kingly specifications.
And Arthur, although he also seemed polite, was a little absent-minded, apparently four years of Windsor.
Bedwin IV, on the other hand, seemed to be a little reluctant to speak, and finally chose to discuss it in detail separately after William's coronation had passed.
At this time, Charlemagne was also dressed as a servant in his room, and more than a dozen people were busy for Charlemagne alone.
He also wore a luxurious robe inlaid with a large number of precious stones, embroidered with gold thread with a pattern of an iron cross on a white background, and the bottom edge was very ornately carved, which looked extraordinary.
And he also wears a crown on his head that is one size smaller than William and Wella, and today William will bring the crown to Wella as soon as the coronation is completed, followed by the canonization of Charlemagne as the crown prince and the crown that belongs to him.
The sons born to Wella are also wearing some inferior costumes and crowns, and as for Lingsi's children, it is a pity that they are only illegitimate children.
They are not qualified to be treated the same as Wella's children, after all, they are only illegitimate children, but William has done psychological work with them.
And they are also very ambitious, and do not feel inferior because of their status as illegitimate children, and because William strictly forbids it, no one dares to treat them differently, whether it is a servant or anyone else.
At this time, everyone was watching around the built arena, and the enemy in the center had a high platform, and Pope Ubal II was already waiting on the highest platform, surrounded by monks holding holy water and crowns.
In the surrounding stands, in addition to the nobles and missions, there were many wealthy merchants, townspeople, as well as knights and soldiers.
Colorful ribbons fluttering all around, as well as an iron cross flag with gold trim on a white background representing William, grinning in the spring breeze, is extraordinary.
As the trumpeters sounded, William walked with Wella to Pope Uban II.
