Chapter 31: The Funeral and Fallio
Today is the third day after the war. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After the baptism of war, although the city of Lotta was full of dead corpses, countless families were destroyed.
But it is also with this experience that the unyielding spirit of the Lota people has become their greatest pride, if someone asks where you are from, the Lotta people can definitely hold their heads high and say, I am a Lotta!
Moreover, the development of the Church of the Holy Light in Lotta is also unprecedented.
Sameer stood at the window and looked at the residents who were enthusiastic about rebuilding the city, and felt relieved.
At least my father didn't die in vain.
And today is also a big day, the city lord of Prut will be officially buried, in the garden in front of the Santa Lotta Cathedral, and the stone carvings that the stonemasons have been ordered to prepare early will tell the glorious life of this great city lord.
Dressed in a full black dress, Sameer looks like a black rose today, beautiful and moving.
"Samiyah, get ready for us to go. ”
Mien also changed into a black uniform, and the funeral was to be presided over by him, which was attended by many residents and read the last words of Lord Prut, which was crucial for the post-war city of Lotta.
It is worth mentioning that the former Chancellor of the Exchequer, Fallo, who had slipped away, did not know the news from there, and returned to Lotta.
Not only him, but also a group of eight hundred private soldiers from Fallo's private territory, in the name of rescuing Lotta, the eight hundred soldiers armed to the teeth were stationed outside the city of Lotta.
For Lotta, who couldn't even muster a thousand soldiers after the war, it was an armed force that could threaten the ruling class of Lotta!
Samiyah and Mien had already been informed about this, except that Samier was a little worried, Mien didn't care, just a clown who jumped off the beam.
Yesterday, when Mien saw the lewd old man and his fat son, he couldn't help sneering in his heart, if he really wanted to embarrass Samiyah, Mien didn't mind letting this power-hungry old man taste a little bitterness.
"You're here, Mine. ”
Samee looked a little lonely, and gently stroked the long pine table that was older than her, "This used to be my father's favorite room, and every decree in Lotta City was signed by my father here..."
It was still a familiar room, a familiar long table, and the portrait of his mother in her youth on the wall, but the feeling of being empty filled Sameer's heart with sadness.
"Let's go Samiyah, it's almost late. ”
Mien didn't want to talk about it for too long, that would only make Samiyah more sad.
"Got it. ”
Samier followed Mien into the carriage, and outside the church there were already crowds of residents waiting to watch the service, and, as Mien expected, Falio's lewd old man and his stupid fat son were also there.
In the carriage, Mien sneered in his heart, and wanted to know what the old man was paying attention to, wanting to force Samier to marry his fat pig-like son, and then control Medester, and then control Lotta, it only takes a few years, and the master of the city should be surnamed Falio.
Meen, who has watched countless bloody dramas, only needs to use his brain a little to know what Fallo is thinking.
The officials who were glued to Fallo glared at Fallo one by one, but they were a little unconfident, after all, they were hoarded outside Lotta, and they were still in the name of reinforcements, so you can't say anything.
The Goatee-Keeper glared at the high-spirited Fallio, "You damn coward!
Fallo didn't care at all, the old man looked at the Minister of Civil Affairs with a smile, "Lord Richard, where are you, now that Lotta is in decline, is there any problem for me to bring reinforcements? ”
Fario's words made Richard blow his beard and glare, but he couldn't think of anything to refute.
Mien and Samier's carriage stopped at the entrance of the church, and everyone except for Falio, whose face was red, was a bit of an eyesore.
The coffin of Lord Prut had been placed in the tomb, and Frankie was waiting for Mien early in the morning.
Mien helped Samiyah to the edge of the tomb, and looked at the black coffin, but the female knight still couldn't hold back her tears and covered her mouth and cried in a low voice.
Meen glanced at Frankie and took the parchment from his hand, Mien cleared his throat, "A few days ago, our beloved Lord of Maidste left us forever and went to the kingdom of God. ”
Mien slowly opened the parchment, "He was born in the Light, and to the Light, and the Light will receive him, shelter him, and keep him away from the suffering of the world, and may he share the glory with the Light when he is resurrected in the future." ”
Mein then briefly recounts Pruitt's glorious life, until he says that he gave his life for the peace of Lota, "War is sin, and he volunteered to be the Lamb of God and to bear the sins of the world." ”
Many people who witnessed that moment couldn't help but shed tears, as the lord of the city, he had the freedom to leave, but he didn't do it, but gave his life for Lotta, leaving Samiyah alone.
When several of the women saw that Samiyah was weeping until they were sad, they went up and comforted him.
"The Light has said, 'If you die for the faith of the world, I will give you an immortal crown.' 'He has spent his life writing of love, diligence, courage, dedication, and sacrifice, and let us pray for him to enjoy eternal life in the kingdom of God. ”
After Mien finished speaking, everyone bowed their heads and was silent for three minutes, which was the memorial and respect for the deceased.
But as soon as this solemn moment ended, someone couldn't help but jump out.
"The Lord of Meteste died greatly, and died glorious. ”
Fallo fakely wiped away two tears, "Mien Divine Son, I heard that the city lord of Prut still left a suicide note, which is in your hand, please read the suicide note quickly, the current Lotta City urgently needs to settle down." ”
Mien glanced at Fario calmly, "Oh, what? ”
"As the Chancellor of the Exchequer of Lotta, I have an obligation to contribute to the stability of Lotta. ”
Of course, his filth was known only to the superstructure of Lotta, and ordinary civilians did not know what attention the Chancellor of the Exchequer had suddenly appeared, but only a little strange about his behavior.
"I'm going to read the suicide note, be careful to get too angry, Lord Fario. ”
Meen looked at him and sneered, asking Frankie to hand him the box containing the suicide note.
"You!" Fallio was speechless for a moment, this damn wit wouldn't be here to stir things up, would he? I heard that he saved Lotta, hmph! This is Lotta, and there are 800 heavy soldiers on your doorstep. No matter how long your hand is, you can't get here.
Sitting down in his heart, Fallo didn't bother to talk to Mien, and quietly waited for Mien to read the suicide note.
Spreading the parchment out of the paper, Meen said slowly, "By the time you need it, I should be dead, but I'm sorry little Sammy for leaving her here alone." ”
"After my death, the lord of the city was replaced by Samier Medester, my only daughter, hoping that the young girl would take care of herself. ”
"All my property also belongs to Samiyah Medester. ”
"It's a pity that I can't be with little Sammy, my most beloved daughter, I hope you will forgive me for being a vicious father. ”
The suicide note was only a few lines, and Pruitt did not give it to any of his cronies, but to Mine, the young man who deserved his trust.
After reading the suicide note, Mien handed the parchment to Samiyah, who was already crying, "Samiyah, look again, if there is no doubt, your father's last words will be executed at this moment, from today onwards, you are the official lord of Lotta City, and you own all the property of your father during his lifetime." ”
Samier took the parchment, hugged Meen, and cried loudly.
It wasn't just Sameer who wept loudly, many sentimental ladies wept loudly with Sameer at this moment.
Mien patted Samiyah on the back, "Samiyah, you have to cheer up, Lotta City still needs your leadership." ”
Slowly pushing Samiyah away, Mien wiped the tears from Samiyah's face, his eyes were sincere, "The Holy Light will bless your father." ”
Samiyah held back tears, "Thank you, Mine. ”
By the time Samiyah had sprinkled the first handfuls of earth on the tomb and the soldiers had erected the monument on the ground, the funeral of Lord Prut had finally ended.
