Chapter 142: Canonization (I)

On August 3, 1716 in the new calendar, when I went out of the door, the summer sun was blazing, but it only had a warm feeling when it shone on the magic robe.

In the sunlight, four golden threads sparkled, which represented the fourth-level mage.

Fang Xin adapted to the light, and after a while, he continued to move forward, the magic union, opposite is the lake, although it can only be regarded as a small lake, but the rippling blue lake reflects the trees on the shore.

The external passage is paved with bluestone slabs, and the trees on both sides are dense, and the morning sunlight penetrates the layers of branches and projects them onto the ground.

In a very quiet place, I went out, but immediately someone shouted: "Oh, Daniel, my dear friend, you have finally come out, quick, today is the day of canonization, fortunately you have caught up, my God, I can't imagine what would have happened if you had not participated in the canonization." ”

Fang Xin glanced at it and realized that it was Etteger, Bard, and Cronshaw.

They were all richly dressed, and Etteg and Bard, needless to say, were dressed in traditional aristocratic robes, and as for Cronshaw, they also wore knightly robes.

"Oh, what, the war has been won?" Fang Xin asked.

"Oh, what did I see, you're already a fourth-level mage?" Etge didn't care about this question, he looked at Fang Xin's magic robe with wide eyes: "Could it be that you have been in for a month just to promote the mage?" ”

"Yes, it's for the mage promotion." Seeing them thinking like this, Fang Xin also said in passing.

"Oh God, what a genius you are!" Bard shouted exaggeratedly, leading many people on the road to watch.

"It doesn't have to be so exaggerated. Oh, Etteger, you haven't answered my question yet! ”

"Oh, please forgive me for being so surprised. You know, I'm dumbfounded by your progress, oh yes, our war has been won, I can't believe it, Baron Charjarson, oh. No, now Count Hamish, he is really a warlike general. Etteg replied at this point, and when he said this, his eyebrows fluttered: "Although we have harassed us, at the time of the decisive battle of Ferry, Viscount Sencada still had 1,800 troops, and the Baron only had 1,200 troops, and the two sides were engaged in the battle and held each other for three hours. Count Hamish personally led the cavalry into the enemy's formation, causing the opponent's array to break through and win the final victory. ”

"After this battle, the Knights of Count Hamish were immediately famous. After all, breaking through a thousand people with 100 horsemen is a very remarkable thing. Bard added.

"Well, how about our titles and territories?"

"Dear Daniel, let's get into the carriage and go to the city hall, where we will be canonized, and as for the situation, we will talk about it on the way."

Speaking of this, Fang Xin noticed a splendid carriage. The carriage was drawn by four horses, and the carriage was very tall, with ornate carved coats of arms on the outside, as well as expensive glass.

When I entered the carriage, I found that there were cowhide backrest seats inside, and the interior of the car was inlaid with gold-filled reliefs. The glass windows let in sunlight.

Three people get into the car. As for Cronshaw, he turned over on a horse. Heroic and glowing.

The carriage was driven, the horse's hooves neatly stepped on the ground, and made a sound, leaning on the back of the soft chair, Fang Xin waited for their words again.

"The war was won, and Baron Chajason officially received the title of Earl of Hamish, and possessed a territory of four hundred and fifty square kilometers, and although Viscount Senkada was defeated, he retained Fort Fairley and related domains because he was still the son-in-law of the previous Earl of Hamish."

"As for the barony that was handed over and a Pank domain to which the original Earl of Hamish belonged, a total of eight hereditary knights and ninety-one knights were canonized."

"What about you?" Fang Xin asked with a smile.

"I've been given a hereditary knighthood, and I've been given three estates, which I've seen, and they're pretty good, with good harvests every year." Etteger said.

"Oh, I've also received the title of hereditary knight, and I've got two estates, and it's not bad." Bard said, "But not only have you received the title of hereditary knight, but you have also received five estates, ah, it is inconceivable that he has given you all the little collar of Ninan." ”

"Oh, is it possible, am I the most?"

"No, of course not, you are fourth, but the first is the younger brother of Baron Charjarson, who inherited ten estates, followed by his chief knight, who also received seven estates this time, and Lord Hardiman, who was sent by the Grand Duke, received six, however, this is already very remarkable."

As the third son of the earl, Etege also only obtained three, which very prominently Fang Xin's acquisition.

"However, Daniel has this qualification, he is now a fourth-level mage, oh, nineteen-year-old fourth-level mage, it's really unimaginable, I think, even the Grand Duke will feel that it is not too much to reward these manors." Etteg said, though there was a hint of sourness in his tone.

"Yes, Daniel doesn't have to wear a noble dress, I think, wearing a fourth-level robe, it's very suitable." Bard said, "But beware, now that you're famous, watch out for the ladies, who I think will welcome you into high society." ”

It is also strange to say that there are always some families in the aristocratic inheritance, and the descendants are slowly not prosperous, and the sons are becoming fewer and more daughters, so in fact, it is difficult for the young lady to find a noble son with the same status in the same family, so she has to marry the second son and the third son, and there are even examples of marrying free people.

Fang Xin smiled and said nothing, they just vented their jealousy, this jealousy was basically friendly, and the city hall had also arrived.

The carriage stopped, and the main feature of the building was simplicity and seriousness, and after meeting the person in charge of the reception, he was led into the hall, and when he walked inside, he found that there were already a large number of nobles, and the ladies and ladies of the nobles.

The four of them entered, attracting the attention of some people, what Bard said was right, it was true, the eyes of many ladies and young ladies noticed these four people, especially Fang Xin, who was wearing a magic robe.

Of course, this gaze did not last long, for the trumpet sounded.

The people who had just entered the hall lined up, and the door was opened, and eight knights, dressed in armor, which was as shiny as a mirror, and their red cloaks fluttered behind them, rippling with their footsteps.

In the center of the eight knights, there was Baron Jason Shah, oh, now Count of Hamish, who was radiant, dressed in a snow-white gown with sleeves and lace outlined with gold thread.

"Count Hamish, welcome to you, are you ready?" Sada Robb, who was also an earl, said.

"Thank you for being here, Count Shaddaro, and I think I'm ready." Count Hamish smiled and said, he turned and looked down, signaling to all the nobles.

Suddenly, there was silence in the hall, and today, he was the protagonist.

Count Hamish also greeted the clergy, who was also a believer and descendant of the goddess of spring water (it is said), so most of the people present were priests of the goddess of spring, dressed in white robes with the mark of the spring, but there was also a priest of the god of light present - he was ready to bless the believers of the god of light among the nobles and knights.

On such occasions, believers of other gods, just that, are blessed, and it is nothing, but the God of Light does not allow his followers to receive the blessings of other gods, even if it is nominally and ceremoniously.

The priest of the goddess of spring water, holding a basin of water in his hand, sparkling inside, is blessed holy water.

The nobles automatically stood on both sides of the hall, and Fang Xin followed Etger.

"Are you all here?" Count Hamish asked a middle-aged man, who bowed slightly and said, "Earl, all the people who have been sealed have come." ”

"That's good, bring all the documents that the Grand Duke has signed!"

"Yes, Count." This middle-aged man was actually sent by the Grand Duke, he nodded, and as soon as he called his hand, several people immediately put stacks of documents on the long table on the high platform.

"If you don't have an opinion, then let's hold a canonization ceremony!" The new Earl of Hamish, with a very resolute look, glanced at everyone and said.

"Yes, Count, you mean that it is our order." The middle-aged man bowed and said.

"In the name of Henry XI of the Duchy of Jenkinson, Quincy is canonized. Jason was hereditary knight and bestowed a fiefdom. Count Hamish said.

At this time, a knight in his twenties stepped forward, and he knelt down on one knee: "I swear that I will be loyal to my lord Grand Duke Henry, and as a vassal I will be your loyal assistant, and as long as my knowledge and strength allow, with the help of the great goddess, I will give you advice and help with my duty and myself, and never deceive and rebel, so that you can maintain and carry out the authority given to you by the goddess!" ”

The times have developed to the present, due to the prevalence of the unified feudal decree of the nobility - that is, all nobles have only one lord, that is, the king and the grand duke, so the oath is almost the same.

After saying that, he did not get up immediately, but waited until the priest of the goddess of spring water stepped forward and blessed the building with holy water, and then got up and took the document, which not only contained the appointment of the canonization of the title, but also the map of the territory as a hereditary certificate.
