Chapter 1448: Secret Ritual
"Marshall, just now an official came to inform me that a state banquet will be held soon, have you heard?"
"I think it's tonight, right? Officials from all over the country will distribute a large amount of supplies to celebrate with the whole country!"
"Isn't it true that the state will take the initiative to hold a state banquet only when there is a great event worthy of national celebration?
At that time, His Majesty won the War of the Heirs, and when he ascended to the throne, he held a state banquet. But this year, I haven't heard of any great events related to the country!"
"I heard a friend on duty in the palace secretly talk about it, it seems that there is a messenger from the Holy Dragon City visiting today, will it have something to do with this?"
"Are you referring to the Holy Dragon City, founded by Lord Keane the God Slayer and successfully preventing the Dark Dragon from destroying the world?"
"yes! Who else could there be?"
"What is the Holy Dragon City sending envoys to our country for, and what is there to celebrate?"
"I think I've heard that Lord Keane is going to build some kind of road. ā
"Is this a great event worthy of a state banquet?"
"I don't know, but it doesn't seem like anything else is happening today!"
"Forget it, whatever! Anyway, we don't have to spend our own money on the state banquet, so we can enjoy it tonight. I had a state dinner when I was young, and the variety of food was simply nostalgic!"
"In other words, sooner or later, the official will also inform you why this state banquet is being held, and you will understand it when the time comes!"
"I just don't know when the official banquet will be held, but it should still be held in the same place where it was held in the past? ā
"When it comes to this, I'm so hungry! Why don't we hurry up and take our family to take a seat first?"
"Makes sense......"
In the territory of the island country of Ilan, officials from the palace quickly spread information to every corner. Officials in various cities, villages and towns are busy, and the people are full of expectations and discussions.
Why is this happening?
Jia Zhengjin sat helplessly in the empty palace, dragging his chin and feeling depressed.
The king sent all the guards of the palace to the periphery, and no one was allowed to approach.
He asked Jia Zhengjin to rest and wait on his throne, and then went back with General Marcy to prepare. Tina, Perrin, Christina, Aypar, and Vanessa also helped.
After a while, I suddenly heard footsteps coming from the side door.
When he looked back, he saw the king smiling, dressed in a very formal royal robe, and walking to the front with a scepter.
Marcie and Vanessa came slowly on the left and right, supporting Princess Amy, who was dressed in a noble white princess dress and a golden crown on her head, and looked very elegant.
To be honest, I saw the princess in the lake before, although she was very beautiful without concealment. But now after carefully dressing up, it looks more charming and has a noble and dignified temperament. She really looks like a princess.
Behind her, Tina, Perrin, and Christina happily carried their exaggerated skirts and walked step by step to the middle of the palace.
When they appeared in front of him, Jia Zhengjin had no choice but to stand up from the throne and walk down slowly.
Princess Amy lowered her head shyly, not daring to look directly at Jia Zhengjin, her face was flushed.
The king was happy, and stretched out his hand to lead his daughter step by step in front of Jia Zhengjin: "Lord Kean, because it is inconvenient for you to reveal your identity now, you can only hold a ceremony like this in a humble way. I haven't made it clear the reason for the state banquet, but I hope that when you return to the Holy Dragon City, another grand wedding will be held, and I will be able to cooperate with the whole country at that time. I don't think you're going to wronged my baby daughter and not even give her the official wedding ceremony, right?"
"Uh......" Jia Zhengjin really didn't know what to say.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, we, as Keane's wife, will definitely help arrange it!" said Tina with a smile behind her, "I will never wronged Her Royal Highness the Princess." ā
"That's for the best!" sighed the king, "speaking of which, I really don't want to let my baby Amy marry so far away." When I think of how difficult it is for Amy to see her after she gets married, my heart feels uncomfortable......"
"Father......" Princess Amy felt her nose sour, "IāI don't want to be so far away from my father......"
"That's just right, why don't we cancel it?" Jia Zhengjin hurriedly said.
Before the words fell, the women behind all glared at him with the same gaze, making him lose his momentum in an instant.
Although I am a god killer, what should I do if I am afraid of my wife?
"Ahem!" the king coughed lightly to dispel the awkward atmosphere, then reached out and gently grabbed Jia Zhengjin, and pulled his hand over and placed it on the back of his daughter's hand.
Jia Zhengjin felt very embarrassed, while Princess Amy was quite shy, but her eyes showed extraordinary joy. After all, the legendary hero in front of her is Lord Keane, who she admires the most.
"Today's ceremony can't be known to anyone for the time being, so I've put all around the castle on guard. The king said earnestly, "Lord Keane, you and Amy have made a marriage vow to the goddess of love before me, and from then on my precious daughter will be in your hands!"
"Do you want to stop thinking about it?" Jia Zhengjin said hesitantly, "I don't know anything about Her Royal Highness the princess, and now I don'......t know anything except that her name is Amy."
"After you get married, you have time to get to know each other slowly!" The king didn't want Jia Zhengjin to regret it, although he knew that he seemed to be reluctant, and he was forced to agree by several ladies. I still thank Marcy in my heart, her strategy is very useful. If she hadn't moved several of Master Keane's wives, she might not have been able to go smoothly today!
"No, I don't even know how old she is, I don't know what her hobbies are, and what she likes to eat......"
"Master Keane, I'm 19 years old, I usually like to play in the water, go shopping, paint, and my favorite is Eland special fish cakes, but I'm not a picky eater. Princess Amy replied softly.
"Nineteen years old, I can't see it at all, I thought I was only fifteen or sixteen ......years old," Jia Zhengjin hurriedly said, "I'm only sixteen, I don't feel suitable......"
"No! Girls know how to take care of people when they're older!" Tina said immediately, "Keane, like a few of us are usually taken care of by you, aren't we? Wouldn't it be better to have someone who can take care of you?"
"So Keane is only sixteen years old, what a surprise!" Amy was also quite surprised, "I thought ......"
"Eh~ still can't do it, I can't make a marriage vow casually, I have to go back and tell my parents first!" Jia Zhengjin really had no choice but to sacrifice the last resort.
"Parents?" said Perryn indifferently, "the two elders you have never recognized, and the oath you have made to us has not been approved by them! besides, you hate them so much......"
"I'm ......" Jia Zhengjin was choked instantly.
