Chapter 327: The Glory Ring
The autumn festival of the Kingdom of Fredem was held as scheduled on the third day of the arrival of Shuin.
In his mind, Xiu naturally compared the autumn festival rituals of the Fredham Kingdom to the Starlight Kingdom.
Compared with the ceremonies of the Starlight Kingdom, the atmosphere of the Fredham Kingdom is a little stronger, but in terms of the degree of luxury, there is still a gap between it and the Starlight Kingdom.
The people of the Fredham Kingdom are still martial, and the people of the Starlight Kingdom will focus more on production and construction, but compared to the word enthusiasm, the atmosphere brought by the people of the Fredham Kingdom still makes Xiu Yin feel a little shocked.
The Kingdom of Fredham is also mired in strife between countries, and its opponent is the Yanmian Empire, one of the Seven Yao Clans, which is a more powerful empire than the Motu Empire that the Starlight Kingdom faced before.
Although all the land between the royal city and the northern border of the Frydem Kingdom was occupied by the Yanmian Empire, the Frydem Kingdom did not show the slightest fear, on the contrary, the whole country was working hard to prepare for war, and the iron ore purchased from the Morrowind Territory had begun to be used in large quantities in the armament of the army.
Appearing in front of the palace was King Silod V, who, like Bernaventur IV of the Starlight Kingdom, had a gray beard.
The two men are alike, and it is no wonder that the two countries have started a peaceful dialogue after friction with each other in the rise of the country.
The objective pressure brought by the Yanmian Empire made the old king more and more old, but the old king's eyes were still full of pride.
From the king to the subjects, most of them have a heroic temperament, which is a characteristic of the kingdom of Fredem.
The autumn ceremonies were not delayed in the least by the presence of foreign enemies, on the contrary, the tributes brought from all over the country were reported as scheduled, and wonderful programs were staged in front of the king and the onlookers.
The celebrations of the Kingdom of Fredham were held in the royal palace, which was equivalent to the inner city of the royal city, and the scale was no less.
Xiu Yin judged that this place should be similar to a martial arts arena in normal times, and it was used as a meeting place during ceremonies, which shows the martial spirit of the Fredham Kingdom.
And the finale of the ceremony was the last speech of Prime Minister Draff.
The left prime minister, Draff, can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person in the kingdom of Fredem, in addition to among the upper nobles, even among the people, the prestige is also very high.
Unlike many ministers, Draff often wears casual clothes, and it is probably only on occasions like today that Draff reluctantly wears a formal makeup.
The finale is that Draff's daughter is about to get married.
As a sought-after figure in the kingdom, Draff has no children and only two daughters, the eldest of whom is married to the head of the knightly order in the kingdom.
Choosing a son-in-law for the second daughter is naturally also a dragon and phoenix among people, so this is the focus of the entire Fredham Kingdom, that is, even the king attaches great importance to this matter.
Shang Wu also occupies a high position in Draff's spiritual world, although the upper part of his spiritual world is all about eating...... However, the spirit of Draff of the people of the Kingdom of Fredham is still there.
Therefore, the conditions for marrying his second daughter are also extremely simple, and the person who stands out from the ring is his son-in-law.
This is the one thing that drives all the people of the Fredham Kingdom into extreme madness.
The prime minister has no children, if he can get his daughter, needless to say the glory and wealth in the future, everyone understands that all this place is full of people.
Even the position where Xiu Yin, who "went through the back door" through the prime minister, is also full of people, and they all have a unified label for Xiu Yin - competitors.
This is a place where people with a certain status can sit here, and all of them are here for Draff's second daughter.
Looking around with the "silver pupils", the center of Xiuin's vision immediately reflected a line of green numbers.
【822】
"More than 800 competitors......"
Xiu Yin had to sigh secretly, Prime Minister Draff really thought highly of himself.
And it's such a competition in the ring, and Xiu Yin really has some disgust with this kind of fighting.
Is it better not to fight or not to fight......
Xiu Yin also fully understood the rules of the ring under the presiding officer's concise statement.
There are no warriors or mages in battle, only winners and losers.
You can use all the items, as long as they don't kill or maim them.
Those who kill or maim their opponents in battle are likewise disqualified.
It was a very simple description of the battle, so the battle had already begun while Xiu Yin was still thinking about who would join the battle.
It's not a wheel battle, but a two-by-two battle that gradually eliminates half of the number of people each time.
Therefore, those who go up to fight in the first round will get more rest, that is, they will fight until the night, and on this day, they will also screen out the prime minister's fast son-in-law.
"Look, isn't that the Third Highness?"
"Eh, really, I didn't expect His Royal Highness to be elected as well!?"
Hearing the surprised conversation between the two people beside him, Xiu Yin also followed their gaze.
Among the ten rings that had just been quickly formed, there was a richly dressed man standing in one of the rings.
That should be the three highnesses that the two of them are talking about.
When Xiu Yin thought for a moment and Alice had already started to refresh the records of the characters of the three highnesses, one of the two said, "What's so strange about this, the Prime Minister is in control of two of the four knights, and if the royal family wants to have absolute authority in the kingdom, this way is the most effective!"
"Uh-huh, it seems that the old king is not confused......"
"Alas, I hope you don't meet the Third Highness in the second round, otherwise we won't be able to play. ”
"Hmph, even if you haven't met the Third Highness, do you still think you can marry the prime minister?"
"Hey, you still have to have dreams......"
Xiu Yin heard interesting news, it seems that the relationship between the Prime Minister and the royal family is not on the surface, and like all kingdoms, there will always be inevitable conflicts between the ministers and the royal family......
Alas......
Xiu Yin sighed again, originally he just wanted to use the power of the prime minister to complete the trade between the kingdom and the Morrowind Lord, but he didn't expect to be involved in such a seemingly simple but complex political whirlpool.
Everyone who comes to power will be reported their identity in detail, so if they lose very embarrassed, it will be really a loss of face, especially for Xiu Yin, who is already the earl of the Starlight Kingdom, it is a trivial matter to lose his own disgrace, and his identity will make the defeat infinitely magnified, and soon the glory accumulated before will be immediately questioned and criticized......
"Wow!"
"Third Highness!"
"Third Highness!"
When Xiu Yin was stunned, the entire venue erupted in crazy shouts.
Xiu Yin looked at it, and it turned out that the three highnesses in the ring had already divided the victory and defeat.
