When I wake up in the morning, I can always hear the chaotic footsteps of the maids going up and down the stairs in the castle.

Getting up from her bed, she pushed open the window just in time to see that all the windows were open in the top room where Hathaway lived, and it looked like she was already up.

Surdak retrieved the third dress from the wooden box at the head of the bed.

Before putting on the dress, Surdak took a shower in the bathroom, stood in front of the bronze mirror and tied his shirt and bow tie, when there was a knock on the door, Surdak put on his leather shoes, walked to the door and opened the door.

A row of maids stood at the door with a series of toiletries, saluted as soon as they saw Surdak, and walked into Surdak's room, and began to arrange the gown for Surdak without even Surdak's command, and a servant knelt on the ground to carefully wipe his shoes.

Finally, the servant took out a razor and cleaned up Surdak's modest beard.

When everything was done, the servants brought two silver trays, covered with a semicircular silver cover, and when the two trays were opened, Surdak found that there was a hearty breakfast in them.

So Surdak had enjoyed a hearty breakfast in his bedroom, and had just finished the last bite of cereal in the bowl when Kenneth Butler came in with two identical bouquets of roses.

"Count Surdak, the wedding ceremony can begin!" Butler Kenneth said to Surdak and handed him a bouquet of flowers.

At this time, Thea, who was wearing a simple white gauze skirt, looked over from outside the door, and her big blue eyes were aimed at Surdak: "Boss, are you okay?" ”

Surdak picked up one of the roses, hurriedly walked out of the room, and said, "Is this the beginning?" ”

"We've been waiting for you for a while, can't you be a little sharper?" Thea grumbled as she pulled Surdakla out of the room.

Lance waited outside in a dark magic robe, and said to Surdak with some eyebrows, "Dark, I just saw the gift you prepared for me this morning, oh, this magic pattern is amazing......"

"If you like it!" Surdak walked outside with flowers in his hand.

Lance and Thea followed closely behind Surdak, and the two served as Surdak's best man and bridesmaids.

If Carl hadn't been married, he would have been the best man.

"Rita and the Danila Knight, Carl, and Bird are going straight to the temple." Lance followed and continued.

Following Kenneth's housekeeper's guidance, Surdak walked around the side door to the entrance of the main building of the manor, and stepped on the freshly laid red carpet to the hall on the first floor.

The Marquis of Luthor and Lady Marianne sat on the sofa in the hall on the first floor, and they were also dressed in formal attire today. Surdak strode up to them and saluted the Marquis of Luthor and Lady Marianne.

"Let's go upstairs and pick up Hathaway!" Lady Marianne said to Surdak with a smile.

"Yes! Hurry up! Someone can't wait! ”

Madame Mabel, who was standing upstairs, spoke with a faint sourness.

Her three daughters, dressed in pale gowns, stood side by side behind Mrs. Mabel, looking at Surdak with envy and jealousy.

Surdak didn't seem to see them for a long time, Surdak was a little puzzled, obviously they were all daughters, why the Marquis of Luthor favored Hathaway so much, so that Madame Mabel's three daughters were like three Cinderellas.

Surdak glanced at them and made his way down the stairs to Hathaway's bedroom, where Thea and Lance followed silently.

Since her last time grounded, Hathaway has been living in a room on the top floor of the tower.

The door was hidden, Surdak wanted to knock on the door, but the door opened with a slight push, and there was a row of maids standing inside, Hathaway was wearing a white wedding dress, sitting quietly in front of the dresser, beautiful like a flower fairy in an oil painting.

Surdak walked over, stood behind Hathaway, handed a bouquet of roses to Hathaway's arms, held her slippery snow-white shoulders with both hands, lowered his head to kiss her cheek, Hathaway lowered her head a little shyly, she slightly dodged on the left side, and whispered to Surdak:

"Dark, it's time for us to go......"

Surdak straightened up, and Lance gave him a thumbs up.

Hathaway stood up from the stool with her hands on the long hem of her skirt, and then put one hand around Surdak's arm.

Two maids followed Hathaway, their long skirts curled for her, and together they walked down the long swing staircase.

Surdak and Hathaway held hands and walked to the steps at the entrance of the Marquis's Palace, where a magic caravan with gold ornaments stopped at the bottom of the steps, and the two of them boarded the magic caravan one after the other, and the two maids also dragged their long skirts into the car, and then Lance and Thea also got into the car.

Surdak found that this magic caravan was larger than the usual ones, and there were at least ten people in the caravan, and one of the emcees sat in the car early, and said to Surdak: "We are going to pick up Miss Beatrice at the Count's Court of Gopphilo, you must hurry, otherwise it will affect the whole process." ”

"Okay, I'll do my best!" Surdak sat in the carriage and pulled his tight bow tie with his hand.

Hathaway looked very nervous all the way and didn't say much, just held Surdak's hand tightly.

The magic caravan was fast and steady on the road, and Surdak couldn't see how different it was from the others, but when passing through the intersection, the other cars avoided it.

The magic caravan drove all the way to the steps of Count Gophilo's manor, and only Surdak led Thea and Lance out of the carriage, and Surdak was the first to climb the steps.

Two rows of servants, led by the butler, stood in two rows at the door.

In the hall on the first floor, Surdak saluted the somewhat melancholy Count Gopphilo.

Count Gopphil's face was a little pale, and his emaciated cheeks seemed to be smeared with some grease, which looked like he had not been exposed to sunlight for a long time, and there was no smile on his face, but his eyes were a little lonely, but he waved his hand casually and pointed to the staircase of Surdak.

Harvey obediently stood behind Count Gophilo and nodded slightly to Surdak, signaling that Surdak could go up.

He had been in a good mood lately, because Surdak had visited his leather workshop the day before yesterday, and the humble workshop had been approved by Surdak.

At the top of the staircase was a maid leading the way until Surdak was brought into Beatrice's boudoir.

There seemed to be a faint musty smell in the room, it looked like it should have been a long time since anyone lived, and the fleshy body of Beatrice, with a round face, was wrapped in a white wedding dress, and she and Hathaway seemed to have discussed it, and the two wedding dresses were symmetrical and complementary in beauty.

"You're finally here......"

Without waiting for Surdak to walk over with the flowers, Beatrice got up from the stool on the dresser, walked over to Surdak, took the bouquet, took Surdak by the arm and walked outside, and the maid who led the way hurriedly trotted to help Hathaway pull her skirt.

"Thea, why did it take you so long to come?" Beatrice didn't complain to Surdak, but asked Thea in a whisper.

"It's not that the head is up a little late......" Thea muttered quietly.

"No one told me what time I was going to wake up, I thought I was up early enough." Surdak explained.

Beatrice took Surdak in his arms, walked out of the Gophilo Manor quickly, quickly got into the carriage, hugged Hathaway, sat in the carriage and pointed to the lush towering trees in the manor, and complained to Hathaway: "You don't know how depressing this manor is&"

"I always live in this wooded manor, my heart is full of gloom, I feel that my whole life is gloomy, and every time I walk out of the house, it is like another beam of light shining into my world through the clouds."

As soon as Beatrice, who had a round face, sat in the carriage, the tense atmosphere in the carriage was immediately dissipated, and the atmosphere of the whole carriage immediately became lively.

"When you arrive in Ruyt, don't forget to make your bedroom a little higher, so you can see the rising sun early every day." Hathaway said with a smile to Beatrice.

Beatrice also nodded again and again, and said, "Just like the tower bedroom where you live, by the way, Dark, does that castle in Ruit City have a tower......

"Do you want to convert the castle tower into a bedroom, it's definitely hot in the summer and cold in the winter." Surdak was speechless to the two noble ladies who had no common sense of life.

"It's okay, we have a way." Hathaway said confidently.

Sail all the way to the Temple of Liberty in Bena, now renamed the Temple of Libera, and the city's nobles need a spacious and bright place to hold their weddings, and not every nobleman likes to set up their wedding in a manor outside the city.

Surdak arrived at the entrance of the temple in a magical caravan, only to find that the square at the entrance was already full of ornate carriages.

The red carpet stretches from the temple hall to the temple gates, and Surdak's carriage stops at the end of the red carpet.

The temple gate was covered with lush vines, and Surda led Hathaway and Beatrice into the gate, through the long cloister lined with flower baskets on both sides, and into the front courtyard of the temple.

The guests were already waiting in the courtyard of the Libera Temple, and most of these nobles in magnificent dresses could not be named.

Rita and the Danila Knight, Carl, and the Bird Tax Officer had already arrived in the courtyard, they were considered Surdak's relatives and friends, and they seemed a little out of place with the nobles in the courtyard.

The front yard of this temple was large, surrounded by tall stone pillars and arches, and the green vines had even climbed to the top of the stone pillars.

It was the tall buildings that held up the shade, the yards were covered with soft grass like hair, and the grass was lined with rows of chairs for resting.

A group of nobles gathered around the Marquis of Luthor and chatted in the courtyard.

In comparison, the nobles around Count Gophilo looked a little shabby.

However, this embarrassment only lasted until Surdak, Hathaway, and Beatrice walked into the courtyard together, and the guests automatically stood on either side of the red carpet and burst into applause.

Rita saw Surdak walking down the red carpet and waved vigorously to him.

At this time, Hathaway and Beatrice were about to walk to their respective families, and Surdak led Thea and Lance into the halls of the temple.

Ascending the steps covered with red carpet to the temple hall, where the Statue of Liberty was originally enshrined, now covered by white curtains.

The high platform where the priests blessed and baptized had a chalice on it, and the grail would be filled with holy water, and if anyone in the city was sick, they would come to the temple to pray, and then they would receive some holy water.

In the beginning, these holy waters were very effective, but later they gradually became less effective.

However, it has long been a habit that when someone is sick, they will come to the temple to pray and ask the priest to give holy water.

If you are very sick, you have to invite the priests of the temple to your home, and you need to donate money to the temple, after all, you need to let the goddess show the devotion of the believer.

Now the priests of the temple had left silently, and the Statue of Liberty behind the curtain was covered with a layer of linen, and even covered with dust.

On the curtain against the Statue of Liberty hangs the flags of the Grimm Empire and the province of Pena.

The banner of the Grimm Empire is composed of a royal griffin shield and a longsword, while the banner of the province of Bednard is a swordsman's helmet and two crossed swords.

In fact, it was suggested that the statue of the first emperor of the Grimm Empire should be erected in the hall, but the proposal was never approved by the royal family of Angelboy, and Charles the Great instead allowed the imperial flag to be hung on the curtains.

Surdak walked in, feeling that the temple hall was much larger than a basketball court.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives of Pena City, Fred. The Marquis of Dunstan stood in front of the high platform in his gown and looked at Surdak with a smile.

He was the officiant of Surdak's wedding, and the master of ceremonies stood obediently next to him.

Surdak walked to Fred. Speaker Dunstan was beside him and saluted the Speaker.

"I can see that Luther has always had a good eye, you are a promising young man, and I am very optimistic about you......" Fred Brown. Speaker Dunstein said with a smile, and reached out and patted Surdak on the shoulder.

As Surdak entered the temple hall, the guests behind him also entered the temple one after another, and sat down on the long chairs in the hall.

As bursts of melodious music sounded, the hall fell silent.

The master of ceremonies immediately handed a copy of the speech to Fred. Speaker Dunstan.

Apparently Surdak helped Fred. Speaker Dunstan's colonization of the Devil of Life was very effective, and he held up the draft of his speech and began to recite it in a subdued manner.

Surdak stood in the middle of the hall, his mind a little wandering, he didn't even hear Fred clearly. What exactly did Speaker Dunstan say?

Feeling the dazzling light emanating from the temple door behind him, he longed to see the view of the doorway.

With a burst of cheerful music, Surdak came to his senses.

To the melodious sound of the harp, Marquis Luthor took Hathaway's hand, and Count Gophilo took Beatrice's hand and walked in from outside the temple door.

One after the other, they walked down the red carpet to the high platform of the temple.

Marquis Luthor took Hathaway's hand and stood in front of Surdak first.

He reached out and patted Surdak on the shoulder, with a faint melancholy in his eyes, he glanced at his daughter lovingly, reluctantly handed Hathaway's white lace gloved hand to Surdak, and said:

"I watched her ...... birth"

"Watch her babble ......"

"Watch her learn to walk......"

"I hope you can see how hard it was for me and Marianne to get her ready."

"Now I hand her over to you, and we hope that she can go on happily with you in the future, love her well, and take care of her."

Hathaway hugged Marquis Luthor tightly with one hand, but secretly pulled Surdak's hand with the other.

Surdak puffed up his chest at this time and said:

"I will, I swear I will spend my life guarding our love."

Gathering up her emotions, Hathaway obediently stood by Surdak's side.

The Marquis of Luthor, to the applause, turned and walked to the front row of the audience.

Then Count Gophilo took Beatrice's hand and came to Surdak, Count Gophilo had a slight face, but the aristocratic indifference and pride, glanced around, snorted softly, and then said:

"I've handed over Beatrice to you, don't let her run back crying, or I won't spare you!"

All right! There is only one sentence.

"Please rest assured ......"

Before Surdak could say the following oath, Count Gophilo walked out into the audience with a cold face.

Beatrice was not as sad as Hathaway, and she couldn't wait to pounce on her and hug Surdak fiercely.

She was like an explorer hanging from a cliff face, clinging to the rope......

Count Gophilo walked back to his seat with some embarrassment.

The wedding went ahead.

Fred. Speaker Dunstan blessed the newlyweds and read the oath.

Everyone in the room stood up.

Finally waiting for the wedding vows to be read, Fred. Speaker Dunstan said loudly from the high platform: "Next, I will read a letter of appointment that has just been issued by the Imperial Congress, appointing Count Surdak as the supreme consul of Ruyt and responsible for the management of the Gampu plane, and concurrently serving as the consul of Mukuso and the speaker of the House of Representatives of Mukuso. ”

The nobles in the hall of the temple were in an uproar......

The nobles who came to the wedding only knew a little about the groom, Surdak, they knew that this young man was the person that the Marquis of Luthor had a fancy to, but they did not expect to become a great lord at such a young age, not only wearing many hats, but also firmly holding the real power of the place.

The wedding ceremony on this side of the temple is over.

Next, the Marquis Palace prepared a sumptuous luncheon and a dance party in the evening.

On Surdak's group of relatives and friends, Rita and Danila stood in the crowd, looking at Surdak on the stage in disbelief, and even Carl and Bird's tax collectors looked stunned.

The Bird Tax Officer whispered to Karl, "Dak will be the Archon of Surdak from now on?" ”

“……”
