Chapter 169: Coronation

Although Miss Rabbit lost a ransom, it didn't take long for her to come back and receive a huge sum of money worth 10,000 golden lions.

The money was sent by Claudio himself, the second prince, and he had promised him the bounty and friendship as long as Ireya helped him kill the Earth Bear in a joust and avenge him.

Now, Claudio has delivered on that promise.

This also made Miss Rabbit's perception of him significantly improved, and it can be said that Claudio is now the most pleasing noblewoman in the royal capital.

Claudio didn't leave immediately after giving the money, congratulating the female lord on becoming the champion, and then chatting with the girl about the new fief she was about to get.

"Cape Crab is the Empire's number one seaport, and the last time I went there was three years ago, and it was a very lively town, not under Lionheart.

"Every day hundreds of ships come in and out of the harbor, bringing spices, silks, dyes and other jumbles, and then taking away our ore, wine, leather, grain and gold.

"Although similar trade can be carried out in other seaports, it is far inferior in size and scale to Cape Crab, and it must be admitted that the Wettin family has run it very well.

"But they're gone...... Cape Crab is now in the hands of House Drummond, who were formerly vassals of House Weting, but now they are certainly not satisfied with their allegiance to other families, and it is not easy for you to take full control of Cape Crab. Claudio commented.

Miss Rabbit smiled bitterly, "I am still self-aware, I never expected to be able to control the crab horns, in fact, I would prefer that Your Majesty can change a place to make prizes, as long as it is closer to the green field, even if it is barren." ”

Claudio was noncommittal, "Your Majesty is no longer here, and even if he is alive, he will rarely change his mind about what he has decided, he has always been a very stubborn person."

"Perhaps I should consult with Prince Garth about this," said the female lordess, "after his coronation."

"My brother...... He would indeed be interested in Cape Crab. Claudio said, "But he has just taken that position, and he still needs the nobles of the royal capital, especially those big families, to support him."

"So even if he has an idea about crab horns in his heart, he won't show it at this time."

"Do you have any good suggestions?" Ilea was now figuring out how to sell the new fiefdom that she had obtained by accident for a good price.

Anyway, she couldn't really get the first seaport in the empire, so she might as well take it out and exchange it for something real.

Whether it's land or money, you can talk about it.

Miss Rabbit has always believed that only what you eat in your mouth is true.

Although the prize of 30,000 gold coins is already a lot, it would be better if you could make more money.

Claudio, however, said, "I suggest you wait, even if you really don't want crab horns, there are quite a few people who want crab horns."

"Since Your Majesty canonized that place to you, you are the master of that city, there is no need to rush at all, you can wait for others to offer you an offer with peace of mind."

"Well, you have a point."

That being said, Ilea was a little unimpressed.

There is another very important reason why she is in such a hurry to sell the crab horns, that is, those winged people with wings on their backs are coming.

At that time, the crab horn will become the front line if it is not good, but she can only think about this reason in her heart, and she can't say it.

But even if you are in a hurry, it is useless, and after sending Claudio away, Miss Rabbit is completely idle, and she has been playing happily in the royal capital for two days.

Then she received an invitation from the royal family to go to King's Landing early tomorrow morning to watch Gals's coronation.

In fact, with Ilea's title and family background, she is not qualified to participate in the emperor's coronation, even if she is just watching from the side, it is obvious that she has played a role in the championship of this competition and the identity of the dragon slaying hero.

Garth wanted his coronation to be celebrated by future generations, and in order to add more legend, he brought in the female lords.

Li Yu had returned to Brattis last night, and as Ilea's entourage, he was able to enter the magnificent palace.

Miss Rabbit did her homework last night and learned that the Emperor's coronation usually lasts nine days.

On the first day, Garth walked into King's Landing, climbed the stone steps under the gaze of the crowd, and sat on the ossuary.

The oldest surviving member of the Vespasian family will then join the six Imperial Ministers to bring the crown to the new Emperor and present the sword from Alessandro the Raging Lion.

After that, the ministers would hand over their brooches, which symbolized power, which meant that they resigned from their positions.

Of course, this is usually only symbolic, as Garth will then give them their brooches.

Even if the new emperor wanted to change the list of imperial ministers, he would usually do so after three to four months.

And given Garth's good relations with the Imperial Ministers, most people felt that the new emperor would not be making major personnel changes to the Council at least for the first few years after his coronation.

Garth would then accept the allegiance of eleven other noble families.

Here it is...... Garth had essentially become the new emperor of the empire, and he would have a luncheon with all those who came to watch the ceremony.

The next morning, the others would return to King's Landing again, and under the leadership of the new emperor, they would hold a parade through the city to the cheers of their subjects.

Seven days later, there will be a state dinner, and the coronation will be completely over.

The process is more or less the same, of course, there will be some differences in the details of each emperor's coronation ceremony, but in general it will be very similar.

Garth has been calm and calm these days, but the excitement on his face this morning is too much to bear.

Edward II was in the prime of life, and the orcs lived relatively long, so it stands to reason that Garth had little chance of becoming emperor of the empire in the last hundred years.

But the sky was unpredictable, and Edward II was suddenly poisoned, which also gave Garth a chance.

He can finally remove the shadow that has been hanging over his head for a long time, and officially become the master of this vast empire.

Before dawn, Garth woke up from his bed and bathed and changed his clothes under the service of the maid.

Wear a gown with a golden brocade trim around it, followed by a crimson velvet silk robe and a silver belt.

Looking at the young and majestic face in the bronze mirror, Garth was very satisfied with his current appearance.
