Chapter 183: The Great Ancestor Worship

"Of course, of course, I knew that you must have built that factory for a reason, and sure enough, yes!"

"Come on, you're still saying I cook. Frandy said indignantly.

"I don't know, if I had, I wouldn't have said that. Gülen was a little embarrassed.

"Let's go, go back, I still have to design a lot of things made of gunpowder!"

"Let's go, I'm going to see how you design it!"

The two secretly returned to the magic tower through the portal, and this experiment lasted for a total of ten minutes, and the partners didn't notice it.

Everyone continued to make artillery battles and fireworks, and chatted while doing them.

When Gülen returned, he no longer touched gunpowder with his hands, preferring to cut paper with Katrina.

After three days of continuous work, I don't know how many fireworks were made, and the two storage rooms on the basement floor were crammed to the brim.

On the fourth day, it was the New Year.

Today is the last day of the year, Frandy, Gülen and everyone else have already dressed up and are about to go to the royal mausoleum for a big ancestral worship, and just about to leave, Dennis suddenly came with news.

After opening the portal, Dennis and the second prince walked over.

Dennis's face was not good-looking, he pulled the arm of the second prince, and the second prince was still like that, submissive in front of Dennis.

"Flandy, I'm here again, are you all okay?"

"Very good, Anita and Elsie are here, how are you going over there?"

"There's a lot of resistance, but trust me, I'll fix it. ”

After this great change, Dennis seems to have matured all of a sudden, and he is the same as when he met in the primeval forest.

But that's what Fraredi wants to see, people always have to grow, and Dennis is the kind of person who doesn't want to take responsibility if he doesn't push to a certain level.

If it was an ordinary person, it would be fine, but his eldest brother would not wake up again, the second brother went crazy again, the third brother died, and the burden of the entire Viston Empire was directly on him.

If it doesn't grow quickly, the Viton Empire is in danger of falling apart.

"Is there anything going on this time?" asked Brandy.

"I ...... I came to worship my ancestors. ”

"Okay, let's go together. ”

Frandi didn't say much, Dennis's father was buried in the royal cemetery, and the custom of this world is that if the deceased is buried, he must not be disturbed.

Therefore, Dennis has no intention of transporting His Majesty Mandel's body back to the Vidon Empire.

Whether you admit it or not, the royal family of the Viton Empire still has the blood of the Oskaia family flowing in its body, and his father is buried in the royal mausoleum of the Oskaia Empire, Dennis will not be too difficult to accept.

After Dennis took the second prince to join Anita and Essie, he did not go to the palace with Flandy and the others, but stayed in the magic tower.

Today's Great Ancestor Worship will be very grand, almost all the officials in the imperial capital will go, after all, the second prince is a person from the Viston Empire, and it is extremely inappropriate to appear in front of these officials.

I agreed with Flandi that after the Great Ancestor Worship was over, I would open a portal for him and let them worship the ancestors alone.

In the past, when the New Year's festival was celebrated, Flandi would not go.

However, this year, His Majesty Haman and the Grand Prince of Bowen passed away one after another. They were very kind to Flandi and his friends during their lifetimes, which is why they all went to worship together.

The royal ancestral worship process is very complicated, and there are many procedures to go through, and the preparation in the palace alone is already noon.

On this day, all ancestor worshippers are not allowed to dine in order to maintain respect for the ancestors.

Frankie and his companions were hungry, watching Gülen perform various rituals like a marionette under the auspices of Prime Minister Don, and he was so tired that he turned around with his head covered, and couldn't help but sigh that the emperor was not easy to be.

Finally, the ceremonies in the palace were over, and everyone had to walk to the royal mausoleum.

The avenue in the center of the imperial capital has long been taken over by the army, and no one is allowed to travel.

The royal cemetery is directly west of the imperial capital, and most of the people who can be buried here are members of the Oskaia family.

However, there are also many people who have made great contributions to the empire who can be buried here if they die and their descendants agree.

It's just that there are very few people with foreign surnames, and most of them are generals of previous dynasties, and important ministers and the like can have this honor.

It is not that there are no ancestors of the Witton family, who later changed their surnames, and in the Second Dark Age, the Witon Empire occupied the imperial capital of the Oskaia Empire for more than a hundred years, during which it passed through several emperors.

These emperors and their immediate families are buried here.

This is one of the reasons why Dennis decided not to move the bones of His Majesty Mandel.

The guards in front opened the way, followed by the royal honor guard, the honor guard held various ceremonial instruments and arranged neatly, each stepping on a horse, looking very solemn and mighty.

On both sides of the road, a guard stood with a gun every few meters, and the ranks were flanked by cavalry ranks.

These cavalry were the cavalry regiment of the First Royal Regiment of the Oskaia Empire, and the commander of this cavalry regiment, Brandy, had also seen none other than Lilia's father, Tyro Leopold.

Although the old general Conrad commanded the First Legion, he was following the ranks of the Great Ancestor at the moment, so his son was responsible for the security work.

After the guard of honor, the first person to walk is of course His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire, His Majesty Gülen, this is the first great ancestor worship with him as the protagonist.

In the past, when His Majesty Haman was on the throne, he was followed by the Grand Prince of Bowen and Gülen, the closest people to the two emperors.

And now that Gülen has succeeded to the throne, he has no heirs, and the only people closest to him are Flandy and other partners.

Even the brothers Tom and Jerry were ahead of the Imperial generals and ministers with Brandy and others.

Then there were the generals and ministers of Prime Minister Donne, General Conrad, and then the turn of the ordinary ministers.

However, the people who can participate in the royal ancestor worship are all nobles, and even a symbol of status and glory, and many people have sharpened their heads and are not qualified to participate.

Both Emperor Gülen and the ministers who followed him had to walk and were not allowed to ride horses or carriages.

This was a rule that was established after the Second Dark War, and the Emperor of Oskaia at that time left this rule in order to prove to his ancestors that he felt guilty about the occupation of the imperial capital during the great worship of his ancestors.

In fact, the rule at that time was not only that you had to walk to the royal cemetery, but also that you were not allowed to wear shoes and socks and walk barefoot.

Not only the ministers need this, but His Majesty the Emperor is no exception.

Later, because of this rule, so many people hiking barefoot in the cold weather that had just ended the blizzard season caused many people to suffer from frostbite, even His Majesty the Emperor himself.

Even some of the infirm ministers were bedridden in one day because they walked so far barefoot, and eventually died.

This rule lasted for more than ten years at the insistence of that emperor, until his death, when it was abolished by the next emperor, and it became that you only had to walk on foot, and you no longer had to walk barefoot.

From the palace to the royal mausoleum, you have to cross half of the imperial capital, and then you have to travel some distance to reach it, and by the time you arrive, a few hours have passed.

Some of the ministers in the back were almost unable to walk, and they relied on the support of the young officials to persevere.

However, they have only just arrived at the cemetery, and there are more ceremonies waiting for them later.

Starting from the central and largest part of the royal mausoleum, in front of the monument belonging to the founding emperor St. Kyle Oskaia, a total of 34 tombstones need to be worshipped, that is, the 34 emperors in the history of the Oskaia Empire.

His Majesty's tombstone was at the end of the list, and Flandi didn't have the patience to accompany Gülen to worship one by one, and after giving him a look, he left the worship crowd directly with the people of the magic tower.

The royal mausoleum occupies a large area, and the trees are planted on both sides of the road, and the road is very smooth, giving people a solemn feeling.

There are also a lot of soldiers guarding the cemetery here, but seeing that Flandy and the others are all dressed in aristocratic clothes, no one dares to come to ask.

I walked a long way along the road until I came to the tombstone of His Majesty Haman and the Grand Prince of Bowen.
