Chapter 1 Marriage
The temple moves faster than expected, and the most data-saving, ad-free site for mobile phones.
Just a week after Claire left Guderies, a piece of news spread throughout the human world overnight as if it had grown wings.
The most powerful nobles of the Holy Alliance, the Ferdinand family, announced their marriage to the Bretton family, the largest nobleman in the north of the Lionheart Empire, as soon as the news broke out, the entire north was boiling, the Ferdinand family and the Bretton family are both old and wealthy families, and every move on weekdays will attract countless eyes, and this time the announcement of the marriage between them brought an earthquake.
Even the recent scandal of the Seven Princes of the Lionheart Empire calling prostitutes and illegitimate children no longer cared, and the streets were full of talk about the wedding between Ferdinand and Breton.
It seems that the Ferdinand family and the Breton family are planning to move seriously this time, and the two young people who married are the core of their respective families, one is Mograine Ricky Ferdinand, the first person of the younger generation of the Ferdinand family, and the other is the current head of the Breton family, Lolo Hatfilia Breton.
The vast majority of people are very optimistic about this much-anticipated marriage, although there are rumors that Mograini has not seen Lolo since birth, but this obviously does not prevent him from marrying Lolo, to the level of Ferdinand and the Breton family, any personal feelings are insignificant in front of the interests of the family, and the family members must pay the corresponding price while enjoying the power and money brought by the family, feed the family, and always put the interests of the family first, only in this way can a virtuous circle be formed and let the group prosper for a long time。
All the old giants have done a good job at this point, and it can even be said that they are ruthless, such as the Andrei family's almost pathological pursuit of blood purity, compared to Karoff, the previous head of the Breton family, is a counterexample.
The Crimson Sword had caused a lot of criticism when she married Eluria, who was born as a commoner, and there were many opposition voices within the family, but these objections were eventually suppressed by Karoff's accumulated prestige and his own great strength, but this did not mean that this matter did not affect the Bretton family.
Especially after the disappearance of the Crimson Sword, the temple began to take action against the Breton family, methodically cleaning up the old group that was still loyal to Karov, if Lolo could get support and help from her mother's family during this difficult period, the temple might not dare to be so unscrupulous to empty her.
Of course, ordinary people can't understand these things, in their opinion, the relationship between Lolo and Nolan is more like a match made in heaven, Hatfilia, as the current head of the Bretton family, is undoubtedly of a higher status than Mograine, the quasi-heir, but the Bretton family has not been very smooth in recent years, and it has rarely shown a trace of fatigue, and Lolo has not achieved anything since he took over as the head of the family, so Lolo urgently needs to use this marriage to stabilize the position of the Breton family in the north.
On the other hand, Mograini can also get a lot of benefits, he was originally only one of the most promising heirs of the family, but after marrying Lolo, he can basically lock the position of the next head of the family, and those brothers and sisters who have been supported by the Breton family have been completely left behind by him, and on the other hand, the Breton family is unlikely to allow their head of the family to marry the future number two or even number three of the Ferdinand family, and they are likely to write this requirement directly into the wedding conditions.
In short, this is a marriage that cannot be refused by both parties, and not long after the Ferdinand family made an offer, the Breton family also responded, and it was a cousin of Lolo who came forward, because of the disappearance of the Crimson Sword, he is now the closest elder to Lolo, and is naturally qualified to make decisions on Lolo's marriage in place of Karoff.
As expected by the outside world, the current Brayton family can't find a reason to refuse this marriage, and even if the so-called interests are not considered, Mograine himself is quite competitive purely from the perspective of choosing a spouse, he is a beautiful man known in the Holy Alliance, with the strength of a fifth-order paladin, and is the dream lover of countless girls, and unlike Caesar, who is a perfect person in front of a person and insidious in the future, Mograine himself is simply a male model in terms of morality, and there is no negative news about him so far。
Archbishop Hill has praised him more than once as a model for paladins and a benchmark for nobility, on the other hand, the current head of the Breton family, Lolo, has been very little news about her from the outside world, and has rarely appeared in public since she was a child, although she has the name of the flower of the north, but this is more of a joke circulated among the nobles, her own appearance and temperament, and moral cultivation no one knows, so from this point of view, it is Mograini who suffers.
And this also aroused the envy of many noble girls of the Holy Alliance, especially some girls whose family background was not much worse than the Bretton family, they thought that their conditions were superior to Lolo in all aspects, but in the end Mograini chose the latter, which broke their hearts, and perhaps they were the only ones who would oppose the marriage between Ferdinand and Breton.
Now the whole north is watching this world-famous marriage between the two wealthy families, and even the nobles in the south are talking about it, and the news that broke out from the Bretton family soon after made everyone turn their attention to the university town of Guderis, located in the south.
The current acting head of the Breton family, Hatfilia's cousin Anse, told Mograine that his fiancée was now studying in Gudris's disguise, and that if he wanted to hold an engagement feast, he would need to write there first, and then wait for Lolo to return to the north, which would take a lot of time, and Mograine said that there was no need to go so far, and in order not to delay Lolo's studies, the place of engagement could be in Guderis, and he himself would leave for the south in two days.
Just after Mograini made this decision, the Ferdinand family behind him also began to operate in full force. Mograini rode alone, leaving the Paladin, when he walked out of the family territory, there were already hundreds of people around him, and by the time he arrived at the port of Setvia, the number reached a staggering thousand, with a hundred and twenty carriages of engagement and half a fleet of the Ferdinand family, Mograini embarked on this much-anticipated marriage proposal.
