Chapter 1090: The Coronation Ceremony
Looking at the very few people in the elders' meeting who were in a trance, Chen An had a moment of enlightenment, and it seemed that only a few people were greedy.
The Constance family has presided over the Southwest Province for so many years, and of course it is impossible not to have any supporters.
As for the unanticipated difficulties and struggles, these are understandable.
In fact, the plans of those careerists can be said to be foolproof, pirate raids, assassin attacks, cavalry charges......
Perhaps they didn't think of a survivor like Rhein Conston at first, but they did their best to make amends.
Those ridiculous bandits who stalled for time don't count, Jett's attack was definitely real.
The charge of the Blood Oath behind is the key to burying everything.
If Jert misses it, they can remedy it, and if Dert succeeds, they can be responsible for destroying the evidence.
Anyway, in the end, they all told the others that they were actually going to meet the new head of the family, but there was a damn assassin, and that damn assassin had been stabbed by them and avenged the head of the family.
It's all perfect, I can't fault anything.
It's just that I didn't expect that the Rhine at this time is no longer the Rhine at that time, and in the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks are jokes.
Chen An didn't pay much attention to the few people who were in a trance, but he followed the strange gazes they showed from time to time, and locked on the king's messenger and the bishop sent by the Eternal Church to crown him.
It seems right to think about it, in the case that they do not control the entire family, the only thing that can support their ambitions should be external forces.
Was the king dissatisfied with the Marquis of Sea Dragon's entrenchment in the southwest as an independent kingdom, or did the church want to squeeze the power of the nobility in Serga and accelerate the development of the church's power?
This question only passed through Chen An's mind for a while and he no longer cared about it, it was the affairs of the Constance family that had nothing to do with him, he was just using Rhein Conston skin, but it was really Rhein Conston .
He is in charge of the Yin-Yang Mirror, and he is qualified to ignore most causes and effects, because the Pure Heaven itself is both all causes and all effects.
But despite the smiling king's messenger, he was interested in the Eternal Church's Bishop Dennis, who had come to crown him, and the other party was his ultimate purpose here.
On the light screen that only he could see, the level of the opponent's strength was displayed for the first time, and after a string of data, it was the final evaluation: reincarnation level six.
According to this world, this is a demigod.
It's just that Chen An looked at the other party's silver hair, and felt a little strange, if he was not wrong, the other party's vitality could be maintained for another twenty or thirty years.
Look at the other party's age is about fifty or sixty years old, and in another twenty or thirty years, he will be seventy or eighty years old.
For an ordinary person, it is not surprising that he will die at this age, but the sixth level of reincarnation is a level that can be compared to a great martial arts master.
And the longevity of the great martial arts master can reach five jiazi, and the longevity of the immortal Dao Jindan grandmaster of the same level can reach three thousand years.
It is indeed strange that such a strong person has a vitality similar to that of ordinary people.
This made Chen An think of the transcendent form of this world, the mass of quantitative transcendent factors.
Perhaps their power never belonged to them, and the transcendent factor was just a tool that could be used by them, but it could not make them change anything.
With this realization, Chen An's heart was even more frustrated, after talking to Jert, he faintly felt that the Seven Gods were probably not the target of hunting as he imagined, and it was estimated that they were just a few natives who had collected enough transcendent factors to reach the level of Heavenly Immortals.
Looking at the appearance of their servants now, this seems to be more certain.
With a long breath, Chen An's mind turned around a few times, and finally gave up the idea of making a big fuss and luring the snake out of the hole, and seriously cooperated with the coronation ceremony.
We'll have to see what the situation is.
Although his original patience has been reduced as his strength has improved, prudence is still his creed.
At night, Chen An dismissed everyone and sat alone in the living room of the official residence.
He is now the rightful owner of the place, and when the Council of Elders is held tomorrow, he will also be the head of the Constance family.
In the middle of the night, a dark shadow sneaked into this official mansion, skillfully avoided the guarding Sea Dragon Knights, and came to Chen An.
"I've seen the Marquis. ”
Despite being a commoner and never untrained in aristocratic etiquette, Jert saluted Chen An in the most respectful posture he could imagine.
I don't dare to have any contempt because of the age of the other party.
Chen An is waiting for Jerte, and at today's coronation ceremony, he has been observing the Eternal Church, a legendary organization that serves the true gods, and the results he got made him very disappointed, and now he urgently needs to learn about this world from Jerte's mouth.
However, he was able to calm down, first motioned for Jert to sit down on the sofa next to him, and then asked half-neatly, half-calmly, "Did you bring me any good news?"
Jert's face was dusty, and it was obvious that he had not been idle in the past two days.
Just hearing Chen An's inquiry, he still reported with a little apprehension: "I, I only killed two side branches of the Constance family for you, they were the ones who hired me in the first place, because the time is too short, I, I still haven't been able to find the real mastermind behind the scenes...... However, I heard something else. ”
Speaking of this, he swept away his shame, as if he felt that this news could make up for his mistakes.
In fact, after coming out of Chen An's tent three days ago, he thought about escaping.
Chen An did not put any control on him, that is, it was just a verbal command, even if he ran away from the other party, he might not have the means to restrain him.
But the faint uneasiness in his heart, and the tip of the iceberg of knowing the strength of the other party, still made him dare not make this decision easily, in case.
He has been cautious all his life, whether he wants to capsize here.
So after thinking left and right for a while, he finally decided to do what the other party ordered, the Sea Dragon family is not easy to mess with, but the one in front of him seems to be even more terrifying.
It comes from his instincts, and he has always trusted his instincts.
"The side branch hires killers, so the blood oaths are the handiwork of the Elders, and they really fit their respective identities. ”
Chen An commented noncommittally, and asked with interest, "What is the news?"
Although he asked, he didn't expect anything, Jert has the shrewdness of a small person, but his eyelids are too shallow after all.
He valued the other person, and he just needed someone to explain some common sense to him, and it would be even better to have some other erudite theologian, but he did not have access to such people for the time being.
"Some people within the Constance family seem to have reached some sort of agreement with the King's emissary, Morrison, that they will join forces to take away your titles as Governor of the Southwest Province and Commander of the Third Fleet at the appointment ceremony of the day after tomorrow. ”
Those titles that preceded Marfa Constance were clearly not directly inherited.
The title of Marquis of Sea Dragon was to be crowned by a ceremony that was recognized by both the Church and the Kingdom, the title of Head of Constance was approved by the House of Elders, and the positions of Governor of the Southwest Province and Commander of the Kingdom's Third Fleet were to be announced through a final appointment ceremony.
In other words, if you want to become the uncrowned king of the southwestern province, you need the approval of the king, the church, and the family.
And without the support of all parties, he can only inherit the head of the Conston family.
Fortunately, the church is very face-saving and recognizes his title of Marquis of Sea Dragon, in fact, the church doesn't care who is the feudal lord, as long as it sincerely believes in the eternal blazing sun. And the kingdom and the Constance family are feudal, so naturally there is no reason to oppose it.
However, the appointment of the governor of the southwestern province and the commander of the Third Fleet can do a lot of tricks.
The method of tearing the face is to directly parachute other people, but this is okay when the Constance family is weak, but after several generations of Constance family owners, the southwest province has completely fallen into the hands of the Constance family, and the Constance family is also unprecedentedly strong, and the people who are airborne are likely to not even know how to die.
Therefore, the most reasonable way for them to do this is to use Rhine's young age as an excuse to press these two titles to the two side branches of the Constant family, and then wait a few more years to support the young Rhine to seize power, and finally let the Constant family be destroyed in civil strife.
Chen An, who was well aware of these tricks, knew what their ideas were when his mind turned.
It's just that he doesn't care at all, he's not the real Rhein Conston, it doesn't matter which side they die.
So for Jerte's news, he just replied lightly: "I know." Instead, he asked about the church.
Jert was stunned, some didn't understand the focus of Chen An's attention too much, and some didn't quite adapt to the jump on this topic, shouldn't we discuss how to deal with the incumbency meeting of the day after tomorrow?
But now the two sides are in the master-slave position, and if the other party has a question, he naturally can't help but answer.
He could only frown and said, "What does the Marquis want to know about the church?"
"Everything you know, including the origin of the seven gods, the priesthood, the fields involved, the specific conditions of the major churches, etc., even some basic things. ”
Chen An didn't go around the bend with Jerte, didn't jump out to make a big fuss, and personally verified the abilities of these so-called gods, which was already one of his few patiences.
Jert was stunned again, really unable to understand what the other party was thinking.
In his cognition, this Marquis of the Sea Dragon should know more about the Church of the Gods than he does, even if the other party seems so young.
The aristocracy is the basis of the existence of the Church, and the children of these great noble families are baptized by a church father from the local diocese from birth, who is responsible for teaching their theology.
How can the other party ask themselves in turn?
But when the other party asked, he couldn't help but answer, so he could only say in a humble manner: "Then, that should start from the beginning of the creation preached by the Church of the Gods......"
