Chapter 775: Canonization Ceremony (3)
The chaotic thoughts were finally interrupted by the footsteps of Tang Fang and Bai Hao, and they really just went to the bathroom and didn't do anything out of the ordinary.
The smell of cologne washed away the smell of flowers and wine in the air, and also soothed the restless hearts of the two black warriors, and their slightly flushed faces slowly returned to normal, but the hostile gaze did not fade.
They are fearless warriors, skilled black warriors...... But they can only be warriors, they can only be samurai, they can't be treacherous businessmen, and they don't have the temperament of politicians, their faces are like a mirror, reflecting their inner thoughts very clearly.
Li Fan, Cologne? Powell and others are very puzzled, under normal circumstances, the agents arranged in important ceremonies or overseas visits have undergone strict training, and generally take a calm and serious path, and will not be happy, but the two people behind Bai Hao are not like this at all, how can a shrewd person like Trist make such a mistake?
Only Tang Fang knew that the Black Warrior was not an agent, and the Black Warrior was a group of vicious dogs raised by Zango Will.
Dogs don't hide their hostility, do they? Especially the kind that is good at taking care of the home.
He explained this to the three ambassadors, using a dark humor to express his sarcasm of Zangowell, and in exchange for the smiles of the three of them.
In fact, he knows very well that for some people...... No, perhaps it can't be called a creature simply as a "human", emotions like anger and hatred are also a kind of mental power, like an effervescent tablet thrown into a Coke bottle, which can inspire unimaginable effects.
Bai Hao has been silent since he came back, but the expression on his face makes people care, and his gently pursed mouth and stagnant gaze seem to be thinking about a difficult math problem.
The officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs led a few guards to leave, and the two black warriors also seemed to have received orders from above, and pulled away from the three Tang Fang and stood under the maple tree at the edge of the path to stop and watch.
That's when it happened. Several people walked out of the direction of the Ibrahimovic Palace, and it was Henrietta, Gilcott, Melor, as well as the royal family members such as Tramon and Taryn, who had entered the side hall earlier.
As the heavyweights of the ceremony, they were led by the Ministry of Rites officials to sit in the seating area on the north side of the atrium square.
The princes of the old school are in the western district, and the princes of the new school are in the eastern district, and there is a clear distinction.
There is also a seating area to the south of the square. It is intended for the local petty officials of "Kehanos", celebrities from all walks of life and foreign guests.
Although Tang Fang is Elena's fiancΓ©, according to the regulations, he is also attending the meeting as a foreign guest, and he should sit with Li Fan, Cologne and others. As for Li Yun, Sevis, Sambart and others, they can sit at will in the north of the square, and there are not too many rules.
In addition, some internal staff began to set up holographic projection equipment in the stands on the east side of the square, so that those lords who could not be present could use remote access to participate in the canonization ceremony.
Tang Fang, Li Fan and the others did not sit down immediately, but continued to chat. Wait for the ceremonial music to begin.
Farther away, the official media of "Cabreto" and some foreign media began to set the parameters of the drone so that after the ceremony began, it could capture a clearer and more positive image.
Half an hour had passed since Elena entered the main hall of the Ibu Palace, and Tang Fang had stood in the atrium for half an hour, not showing impatience or boredom, but Melol on the other side of the square. After only sitting for three to five minutes, it was like a layer of pebbles under his buttocks. Twist it left and twist it right, it looks very awkward.
Before being canonized, Elena had to bathe again in the Ibu Palace, wash the dust off her body, and then change into a knight's robe. In the presence of Archbishop Sherwood, she prays with her hands on the Bible and faces the Holy Cross, and then the Minister of Celebration will drape her in a cloak representing nobility. After another audience with the king and queen, the main part of the festivities begins in the atrium.
Although compared to the Zoro Empire and the Phoenix Empire, the ritual has been simplified as much as possible, but it will take about an hour to carry out the above-mentioned process, so Tang Fang is not in a hurry, Tang Lin is not in a hurry, and Bai Hao is not in a hurry.
This continued until 10:30 a.m., when Trist walked out of the Ibrahimovic Palace, arranged several Black Knights on either side of the red carpet, and finally walked to the right side of the stone bridge in the north of the square, and stood with his hands down, waiting for Zangowell and Elizabeth to enter.
After a while, the minister walked out, the ceremonial music played, and two people slowly walked on the red carpet in the main hall of the Ibu Palace.
Hymn Will is on the left, Elizabeth is on the right, both dressed in velvet robes and walking slowly with a smile on their faces.
It's hard to imagine a king who has just been shaved face, a mother who has lost two sons, can have such an expression. Although Zangowell's smile was stiff, Elizabeth's smile was a bit far-fetched.
They laughed after all......
Henrietta sat in the maglev chair, watching his nose and nose and mind, ignoring it, and Gilcott was equally silent, even Melol stopped writhing her ass, stood up, and set her eyes on the red carpet.
With the exception of Annecy and Henrietta, everyone left their seats and saluted the king and queen.
Li Fan whispered: "Praise Wei...... What a horrible guy. β
Cologne? Powell nodded: "If it weren't for a figure like Henrietta, he would have controlled the entire United Kingdom of Turanks, and where could the current chaos be." β
Those who have courage are terrible, and those who have courage and know how to endure are even more terrible...... Zangowell is such a person.
He never flinched when it was time to strike, and he wasn't aggressive when it was time to step back.
Vaneo, the ambassador of the Silver Eagle Regiment, who had never spoken to Tang Fang, said: "You are indirectly praising Zangowell in front of him, right?" What a horrible bunch...... Can you die if you are frank? β
The men of the Silver Eagle Regiment are known for their martial bravery, the women of the Silver Eagle Regiment are known for their women's refusal to shave their eyebrows, and even the politicians of the Silver Eagle Regiment are less hypocritical and more upright.
Vanio's short hair is very energetic, his eyebrows and eyes are very energetic, and his military uniform is even more spiritual...... Except for Tang Fang, Tang Lin, and Bai Hao, he was the only person wearing a military uniform at the scene.
This is the tradition of the Silver Eagle Regiment, and it is also the pride of the Silver Eagle people.
Li Fan and Cologne? Powell's face was a little unpleasant -- it was never nice to be complained about.
The Ambassador of the Republic of Dorlanx? Maurer said, "Vagno, you've drunk too much. β
"No, no, no, I can swear to the ancestors. Definitely not drank too much. He said: "It is Alisher who drinks a lot." β
Looking sideways from the position of several people, the Phoenix Imperial Ambassador Alischer, who was sitting behind Ambassador Jordno of Monya, did have a slightly red face, and his breathing was relatively heavy.
Tang Fang shook his head with a smile and did not speak. However, Tang Lin beside him glanced at Vaneo, his gaze was a little complicated.
Praise Will and Elizabeth descended the steps, followed by four little boys pinching the hems of their robes. Follow in unison, looking straight ahead without squinting.
This is followed by 4 heavily armed knights, holding the Sword of Loyalty, the Sword of Justice, the Sword of Justice, and the Sword of Mercy.
Tang Fang squinted, and Bai Hao also squinted, but they didn't say anything.
Vaneo frowned, his lips stretched out a slit, and he said, "Cut." Turn your head to the east and look at the peerless face of "Kehanor".
In the hearts of the Silver Eagle people, whether it is the Rose Knight of the Sauron Empire or the Glorious Knight of the Phoenix Empire, they are all a group of people who deceive the world and steal their reputation. A true knight needs a knight's heart, the soul of a warrior, and the ambition of a warrior. Chivalrous wind, not a sword. A shield, a coat of arms, a horse.
Behind the 4 knights are 4 black warriors dressed in special types of power armor.
Unlike the usual Pilgrim-level power armor, and unlike the new generation of Cult Army-grade power armor, they are a smaller but more powerful power armor. Given the name St. George's class power armor by Elizabeth.
It is ironic that Zangowill, who defies divinity and divine authority, uses the name "St. George" for power armor that is so precious that only his Black Warrior Guard deserves, as the naming rules of the ships of the United Kingdom of Turanks deserve.
What's even funnier is that Archbishop Norwood is behind the Black Samurai in St. George's class power armor. Walking alone, without a single retinue by his side.
It's like...... A dog that His Majesty carries in an invisible chain, or a prisoner.
There was no one behind it. With the exception of princesses like Herois, none of the princes attended the celebration, and officially, the Lionheart's independent fleet was undergoing a routine show, and the princes were sent to battle to hone their command skills.
No one believes such nonsense.
The princes must have deliberately gone out of his way to prevent them from meeting Tang Fang, causing conflicts, messing up the celebrations, and adding a few more scars to his already scarred face.
It's normal for young people to be uncontrollable.
Few people possess the endurance and self-control of His Majesty.
In addition, the military exercises of the Lionheart's independent fleet will create an invisible pressure, a threat to Tang Fang and Henrietta, so that they will not make small moves behind their backs, and by the way, they can also divert people's attention from the late Jaspa and Linova.
Amid the music, the procession of Zangowell, Elizabeth and others continued to advance, and they walked unfast, and it took several minutes from the main hall of the Ebrahimovic Palace to the aqueduct on the north side of the square.
The Minister of Applause, who was at the front of the way, walked to the three stone bridges and stopped, bowed to Zangowell and Elizabeth, and walked to the opposite side of Trist, standing on the side of the red carpet.
There were two very beautiful chairs in front of the seating area, and Zangowell and Elizabeth walked over hand in hand, looked around, then nodded and sat down.
The princes and nobles, as well as the guests, also sat down, and only the projections arranged in a staircase on the east side of the square did not move.
Tang Fang sat a little late, and suddenly skimmed over to the projection area, an elderly man swept his face with a seemingly calm gaze.
Yes, it seems to be calm, but in fact, under the calm gaze, there is a deep hatred and anger.
He was not a few years younger than Henrietta, his hair was already thinning and gray, he was lying on his stomach on his scalp, his eyes were a little narrowly spaced, and his nose was slightly larger, especially the wings, which looked thick.
He has a very loud name, Luls? Franklin, Grand Duke of the United Kingdom of Tulanx.
Although Edvina is barely able to be called the Grand Duke, compared to Ruls, she is a big difference in status and fame.
According to the founding king of the United Kingdom of Turanks, von ? The rule set by Olibald back then, with 4 star systems, and outstanding military achievements, and a famous lord, can be awarded the title of Grand Duke.
Until Zanggowell came to power, in order to avoid too many lords receiving the title of Grand Duke. Invisibly damaging the prestige and status of the royal family, he raised the first condition for the title of Grand Duke to 5 star systems. As a result, the entire United Kingdom of Tulanx is left with only two lords with different surnames.
However, such a decision was resisted by the old-fashioned forces led by Henrietta, who said that he had changed the ancestral system without permission, which was inappropriate. The two factions faced each other at the joint meeting, and there were forces of the wall-riding faction to muddy the waters. There was no result in the discussion, and it eventually became a eunuch issue.
As a result, most of the nobles of the new faction supported Zanggowell's decision, while the people of the old faction did not support Zanggolwell's decision.
Even if there is no result at the joint meeting, in order to disgust the political opponents, both sides make their positions clear with practical actions, so some people call her the Grand Duke Edwina, and some people call her the Duke.
Luls? Franklin was different. His title of Grand Duke is well deserved.
Perhaps it was because the spiritual power in that gaze was too strong, and the few people in the front row glanced left and right with some trepidation, and when they saw Tang Fang behind, they suddenly realized.
This kid borrowed Small's hand 3 days ago and killed Jasper and Linova in full view of everyone. For the sake of the royal family's face, Zangowell had to start an investigation process and announce the identity of Small's suspect.
His despicable act of killing people with the sword undoubtedly pushed the "Morning Star Casting" to the opposite side of Luls. It's no wonder that old thing will give him a good face.
Some began to mumble.
"Praise Will for the new school, Henrietta for the old school. The power of the wall-riding faction, now coupled with the frontier lord like Luls, who is usually inconspicuous, but has a constant ambiguity with the Sauron Empire, tsk...... This kid, the ability to poke a hornet's nest is really the pinnacle. "It was a foreign businessman who spoke, and I couldn't tell which country I was from.
"Your horizons are too narrow." A Han foreign guest next to him said: "The number two man in Garcia's rebels...... Although only nominal; Kill Harrington? Harris's Legion of Doom. Bringing the Mubarak star system under the ownership of the Covenant government; It seems like...... The reincarnation of the Divine Phoenix, His Majesty the Great Sage and Holy Emperor Virginia? Alexander also let his pigeons go; And if you add the Star Alliance President Adam? Oliver ...... Do you think it's just a 'hornet's nest'? β
"Oh, by the way, according to the grapevine, the reason why this war between the Star Alliance and the Mengya Empire and the Sulu Empire was able to fight. It seems that there is also his shadow in it. β
"Poke a hornet's nest?" The man smiled and said in a tone that sounded derogatory but actually admiring: "He is simply a super broom star who turns night into day, whoever touches it is unlucky, and whoever touches it is pregnant." β
A bearded man on the opposite side who was a little drunk suddenly turned his head, his eyes lit up, and said, "Can you really get pregnant?" You say, should I let my wife touch him? β
The Asian businessman smirked, "I think it's okay." β
Li Fan, the ambassador of the Star Alliance beside Tang Fang, took out the effort of holding his urine to hold back the smile that swelled in his chest, and looked at his side face with a playful look.
Tang Fang didn't know if Mr. Ambassador had been bent by someone, or if he had some unspeakable thoughts about himself, his eyes were focused on the projection area at this time, but instead of arguing with Ruls, he admired the affectionate gaze of Lord Sambart and Duke Tucson.
What Sambutt did on the Bavaria space station was tantamount to forcing his father to Liangshan, and unless the Duke issued a statement to draw a line with the Tang side, he would be labeled as an ally of the "Morning Star Forged" and be hostile to the new forces.
He really wanted to form an alliance with Tang Fang, and he was happy to see his son become friends with that kid, but Tang Fang's purpose, or ideal, was really difficult for him to accept.
The key is that he doesn't dare to draw a clear line with Tang Fang, the current situation is that this kid has played with His Majesty the King, and all the people who are opposed to Captain Tang have not ended well.
So he could only look at Sambut, and everything was silent.
Fathers and sons, many times like this, poured a lot of love, a lot of expectations, but in the end, they fail to see their sons become the inheritors of life and will, many times, they play a contradictory role similar to that of revolutionaries - to change their father's life, embark on a rebellious path to find their own life value and ideals, but they are bound by the family affection that blood is thicker than water, just like absinthe mixed with salty vinegar, there are spicy, sour, bitter, salty, in short, it is very complicated.
Tang Fang didn't know how to dismiss Senbut, sighed lightly, and his eyes swept over the projections of Marquis Robinson, Marquis Arudiba, Duke Edwina and others, and finally returned to the square.
Tripati? Singh remains absent.
No one knows what the old pervert is up to and what he's planning.
Since the Singer family was erased from "Georgia", he has never appeared in the political arena again, and has been saying that he is recuperating from his illness, refusing to be visited and enlightened by anyone, and even quitting women, and living a life of in-depth simplicity every day.
He was not like this before, on the contrary, he was a very politically active person, otherwise he would not have been able to become a representative of the wall-riding faction, but now...... The Singh family collar was as calm as stagnant water.
The few people who knew the inside story felt that he was doing the right thing. Tripatti's disobedience had long been noticed by Zanggowell, and he used the hands of the Tang side to exterminate the nobles of "Georgia", erase the Singh family from the country, and finally dismantle the wall-riding faction through the joint council, and everyone in the big nobles who were friendly with him were in danger.
Praise Will's series of actions directly beat him all over his body and turned him into a cripple. (To be continued.) )
