Chapter 91: Succession Ceremony
Stormwind is the farthest place from Minechil that belongs to Nioh. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Naturally, Duke Vortagan was the last nobleman to arrive to attend Nioh's succession ceremony.
The others who did not come have already come.
Reginald came with their heads.
In a little more than a month, Reginald led the 50,000 troops he had brought back from the northeastern frontier and swept through the entire southern provinces of Nioh's territory with lightning speed.
A few nobles who might have planned to wait and see, or who might have intended to resist, were ploughed by Reginald as if they had been plowed.
Therefore, when the day after Duke Fotagan arrived in Stormwind City, the succession ceremony of Nioh was officially held, and the whole of Minahir was full of joy and peace.
At least it seems.
The huge city of Minahir was lit up with lights, and almost everyone was celebrating Princess Jarro's official succession as Lord.
And such a picture, in that small "palace", seems particularly harmonious.
The new Nioh, the queen with the title "Flower Shadow", sat on a small chair.
The nobles in various territories lined up to meet them according to the size of their titles.
The first person to be seen was naturally the person with the highest title.
For example, the Duke of Vortagen.
and the Duke of Green, who was targeted by Sovan.
Duke Vortagen's face was very good, and with a sincere smile, he saluted. But not the Duke of Green.
His face was gloomy.
In that small living room the day before, Suowan and Sun Chenghuan's proposal to get rid of Duke Green was the result of a discussion between the two of them and Jessica, who was quietly smiling and making tea without saying a word.
They dared to bring it up to Duke Vortagen, because they were not afraid that he would not agree.
The reason is simple, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers.
Although they are all anxious to wake up to the power of the world, they also know very well that they are a generation with Jarro, and their time is in the future.
But the Duke of Fortagen is different, he is fifty years old this year.
Leaving a territory like Stormwind and rushing back to Minethil, he must have some ambitions.
Although this ambition even Joey did not know.
He's definitely going to do something.
Since you have to do things, you can't have people who are in a way.
And this Duke Green is precisely this kind of person.
He belonged to that kind of typical lord.
In addition to the social interaction between the nobles, the literature is not enough.
But that's it, between the drinking parties of the nobles of Minahill, he has woven a large network of connections.
Therefore, if he wants to go to Stormwind City to become the city lord, he will get the support of so many people, and he will let Jarro ...... Well, the current Lord of the Flower Shadow is embarrassed.
Such a person going to Stormwind would definitely make the battle that Duke Vortagan had fought so hard for so many years against that huge family called Defia go down the drain, and it would make him feel that he wanted to do something here in Minethir.
These things, even those of them who have been in Minahir for less than a month, know these things, and it is impossible for the Duke of Vortagen, who has been in Astrana all the year round, not to know about them.
As for the nonsense that they won't have extra titles if they don't die, in fact, even Sun Chenghuan and they don't believe it.
However, the Duke of Green obviously did not know that he had become the common enemy of the new group of young men and the most powerful nobles in the true sense of the word of the Nioh's realm who were smiling and saluting beside him.
He was still upset that the Duke of Vortagen was suddenly returning to Minethir.
He didn't want to go to Stormwind.
The Duke of Greene had lived in Minethil for almost his entire life, and now he was in his sixties, and there was no reason why he had to go to the beach to blow the sea breeze.
He'd rather live here in Minethil for the rest of his life.
It's just that he didn't expect that the Liu family, who had obviously been driven away by the mob, would suddenly come back again.
Moreover, he still took the mad dog of Reginald.
Of those who did not come to Nioh's succession ceremony, two were his cronies.
Originally, he wanted to use this incident to create a little public opinion and make Minethil mess up, and then he could find some opportunities to go further......
Anyway, the big nobles in the capital are just thinking about becoming the other two kings, and they definitely don't care so much about who is on the side of Nioh.
And in Minehir, he was already king......
If it weren't for the damn Duke of Vortagan. Isn't it good for you to be your lord in Stormwind......?
Before, he was just a little angry, and he would come up with something he wanted to go to Stormwind.
But yesterday he had just arrived at Minehir, and a large number of nobles had already come to visit him.
These damn wallgrass!
Duke Green had realized that he was not as strong as he had been in Minechil.
He suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
His instincts reminded him that if he continued to fall in love with Minethir, his entire family might cease to exist in the end.
So, he planned to discuss it with Duke Fortagen, and ask Duke Fotagen to recommend him to Stormwind City......
After getting out of here in a while.
......
After the salute and some auspicious words, the two dukes, who had entered the room together to salute, withdrew together.
Behind them were several marquis of the realm.
At the forefront was a man who had just been made a marquis this morning.
Sun Chenghuan.
"These little kids, why are they so arrogant!"
Looking at Sun Chenghuan's smiling face, Duke Green really couldn't help but feel disgusted in his heart.
"Who hasn't had a young age!"
The Duke of Vortagen, who was next to him, smiled and answered.
Duke Green was stunned for a moment.
glanced at the smiling Duke Vortagen, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Her Excellency the Flower Shadow King is a young man, and it is understandable that she likes these peers! Duke Vortagen said meaningfully. "But don't underestimate them, young man...... Sometimes it's scary. ”
Although it still sounds very cloudy and breezy and breezy .
"I hope so. Duke Fotagen's words made Duke Green's face slightly better.
The two people, who should now be the most powerful under the Flower Shadow King, just walked side by side and stepped aside.
Behind the two of them, there were a large number of various nobles waiting to meet the new king.
The so-called succession ceremony is naturally a whole set of rituals.
After receiving a visit from all the minor nobles in the realm, he went to the improvised platform outside and read the oath prepared by the first Nioh.
It's easy to say, but it's not so easy to do.
Ritual has always relied on complicated details to ensure its solemnity.
The succession of the prince is naturally no exception.
The etiquette for everyone to enter the room to meet the Flower Shadow King is different depending on the level of the knighthood.
From the congratulatory messages they had to say when they met, to the gifts they brought to celebrate the succession of the new king, there were all hard requirements.
There is also the platform that was temporarily erected outside the palace to swear an oath to the Flower Shadow King, and there are strict rules from height to size, whether it is big or small.
Even when the Flower Shadow King recited the oath of her ancestors, where to stop, where to have tears in his eyes, it was all rehearsed in advance.
It's not that you can do what you want, you can say whatever you want.
These are the so-called "rites".
Even the Flower Shadow King sitting in the palace, from the clothes to the sitting posture, it was not casual.
All kinds of details.
These things, since the Flower Shadow King entered Minerhil, have been handed over to Jessica to deal with, and she has been quiet for a while, and that's what she has done......
But this one thing kept her busy.
It took a whole morning for the nobles to meet each other.
Then, at noon, when the sun was at its very top, at twelve o'clock, the Flower Shadow King officially ascended to the red-carpeted platform outside the palace, and conscientiously memorized the oath of her ancestors when they abolished the House of Elders and established the system of division of the three kings.
The aristocrats standing in the audience were already sweating profusely......
After that, there was a feast for the new king.
Although it is said to be a feast, since it is part of the etiquette, there is really nothing delicious to eat.
Simple green vegetables and tofu and the like, there is no meat at all.
This is very much in line with the somewhat shabby-looking temperament of the Nioh Mansion......
Moreover, there is also a toasting etiquette.
The nobles who sat at the tables scattered around the palace on the road according to their titles estimated that there would not be any time to sit on the side of the road and eat like they did now, except for such occasions.
Even if you finish eating, you can't leave.
Because there is still a queue waiting to toast Nioh.
There are also standard greetings to say when toasting, and these must be memorized in advance.
And until the last table has finished toasting, no one at the first table is allowed to leave.
It's a long and vast process......
From noon to evening, the whole ceremony came to an end.
I don't know if the Heavenly Father knows about Nioh's succession today, or what the reason is, from early in the morning, a big sun is on his head.
Then, he was stunned and exposed to this group of Astrana nobles for a whole day......
In the middle, several nobles who were not in good health were waiting for the toasting link, and they actually fainted.
But even so, no one dared to risk being disrespectful and slipped away first, sitting around the table in an orderly manner, facing the sun, waiting for their turn to toast, or, finally, to finish.
For the average person, that's it, it's already tiring enough.
But some people are more tired than that.
Sun Chenghuan.
He's still holding a magic spell in his hand!
