153. I will imitate Charlemagne
After the award, the dinner scene of the day was grand.
The stockpiled supplies were not enough to squander, and even requisitioned food and wine from hundreds of people living in the inner and outer cities.
Tables and chairs remained in the hall, and the rest of the furnishings were carried out, which could accommodate thirty nobles for amusement.
Today is the most desirable day for King Ella, and all the nobles of the kingdom submit to him.
He drank a whole barrel of wine, his eyes were red, his whole body smelled of wine, and he couldn't stop laughing as he spoke.
Compared with his heroism, Orlan seemed stingy, and the pot of wine in front of him was poured and poured back, never finished, and he was not satisfied.
Staying awake at all times is the only way to deal with danger calmly.
Next to him sat "Malm".
It had been a long time since she had attended such a banquet, and Malmu was very uncomfortable, and kept her head down, she was afraid that she would bring unnecessary rumors to Orlan.
Yavin
The last time she participated in such a banquet was on the day she fled back from the Vikings.
But the vicious words of the people present were sharper than the sword, and she was overwhelmed.
After that day, she was scared.
"What are you worried about?"
"I ......"
"William and the princess can't bully you in the future, who else has humiliated you here? Now point it out. ”
"Do you want to ...... What for?" Malm looked up at Oran, then lowered his head, and the food in front of him did not move at all.
"Baron and above, I will charge him five times the manor tax, change his fief, knights and below, all worms, I will let Conny excommunicate the church, saying that he is treasonous."
"Ahh
"You are my wife, we are about to get married, whoever humiliates you will splash sewage on the wings of the white eagle, you should be proud, and raise your head."
Oran said so, but Malm was very uncomfortable, she already liked to be quiet and alone, and not to pay attention to material desires and pleasures.
By changing out of her clothes and putting on a nun's white robe, she can even practice asceticism.
"I'll study hard as your wife."
"It's very simple, I hate talkative women, I hate calculations, I hate irritability, I want a boy, of course, the more children the better, it will strengthen my ruling authority and reliable family talents, I will give them a good education, everyone has a fief."
Hearing this, Malmu thought for a moment and said, "If I can't give birth to your heir...... Will you take a concubine?"
"The Vijay family has no close relatives, I am the only one left in this branch, if I die in the hands of the Vikings, the White Eagle will disappear, the male heir is a must, you can continue the family, you can guarantee your identity."
Orlan did not respond positively, and the two fell silent.
Oran's eyes looked out, and the surroundings were full of joy.
Tyrrell was flirting with a young boy, telling him that the bed in his governor's room was large and comfortable.
Gliese and Nanding drink, and the two are about to become "brothers-in-law" and "brother-in-law".
Nanding was arranged, followed by the others, with Kunsang taking precedence, but Orlan hadn't thought of who to marry him.
John talks to Katana.
The little fat man sang and danced in front of the king, like a stage artist, and laughed at the king who was holding the woman.
The servants kept serving the food, and their faces were hungry, but the knights kept shouting "wine and meat."
Some nobles knocked it over, and the servants picked it up, and they didn't care about the dirt, and immediately stuffed it into their mouths.
A servant came to Malmu and Oran and asked, "Your Highness, do you want more?"
"Enough, I'm not hungry, you can take these things." Malmu held the plate up with both hands and handed it to the servant.
The servant was flattered, bowed his head and took it, and slowly retreated.
"You'll be a good wife, Malm." Orlan complimented, and Malm answered.
But Oran's next sentence made her heart very uncomfortable, and even painful.
"The Seven Kingdoms of England, have you heard of how many kings did not have concubines?"
"Charlemagne, the greatest of the Franks, has countless lovers, is he?
I don't think so, he only chose to marry different tribes or nobles for the sake of more efficient rule.
I will help your father to strengthen the country, and we will master more and more pastures, mountains, forests, and harbors.
There are more and more people, and of course there will be more women around me.
I may or may not take a concubine, even if I take a concubine, this is the tradition of the Anzaar nobility.
We are aristocrats and we should respect the traditions of our ancestors, and all this is not because I am 'lustful', but because I want to follow Charlemagne's example and 'sacrifice' my personal feelings to create a strong regime......"
Orlan began to brainwash her.
Orlan said very calmly, and Malm's tears were dripping, and when Oran saw it, he put his hand on hers.
The two of them just waited quietly.
Someone came over to toast, and Oran responded politely.
Oran has different ways of dealing with different women.
Malmu is kind, don't lie to her, try to coax her and tell the truth,
Adesha is ruthless, don't coax her, try to trick her into telling more lies.
Finally Malm hummed, and the meaning was endless.
Orlan continued to put on his trademark smile and began to coax her.
By this time, the king of Ella had almost drunk and was ready to judge the witches, and the scene was left with Orlan as the most noble.
The little fat man came over and said hello to his cousin Malm and Oran.
"Your Excellency Frank, thanks to your help today, you have also heard the voice of Christ, and I am sure that God will bless you on the battlefield in the future, defeating the Vikings."
"Your Excellency, you have married Marm, we are already a family, if there are any troubles in government affairs in the future, please send someone to inform me, and I will fully support your governance."
Frank was recognized as a royal family, so he called Malm's full name, but at today's meeting, the special status of the palace minister was determined, and Oran's status was above the county governors, so he continued to use Oran's honorific title.
While the two were chatting casually, Oran's subordinate Glock came to his side
The little fat man left with great interest, and Glock said, "Your Excellency, can you forgive Shi Meng?" I've promised Freya that Shmon will be let go tonight. ”
"Are you drunk?"
"Your Excellency, Shi Meng is gone, and it is impossible to pose a threat to you anymore."
"It is Your Majesty who wants to kill him, and I have advised Your Majesty, but Your Majesty will stand up in front of all the county magistrates tomorrow, as an encouragement to send troops to drive away the Mercians, and I will not help you."
"But Freya!"
"You're going to be the king of the Vikings on the island, and you can't even control a woman, can't you? Don't let me down. ”
Seeing this, Glock could only leave silently.
After showing Malmu the other side of his majesty, Oran said to her, "You are my wife, the one I trust the most, so you can listen to these things and remember that you are my second life." ”
When Oran said this, Adesha asked people to bring tables and chairs and forcibly put them on the other side of Oran, forming a situation where he was in the center, Adesha was on the left, and Malm was on the right.
A man and two women, all the nobles saw this scene, their eyes were surprised, contemptuous, and lively, but no one dared to come forward and say anything.
How ruthless Orlan is, they have already seen that William has been given a death order just now and will be punished by capital punishment tomorrow.
This is the king's son-in-law, kill if you say kill!
Adesha shouted, "Your Highness." ”
Malm replied, "Your Excellency." ”
Oran didn't say anything when he saw this, and this time he finally took a sip of the wine in front of him.
"I know that your ambitions are great, and the servants are just playthings, and Malmu is before me, and I am willing to share it with her, but, the two seats are already filled, and whoever wants to share our seats, I will kill her."
Malmu bowed her head, but Adesha met Oran's gaze with no fear.
There are as many meek women as as as as ruthless women.
Orlan played with the ring, and finally got up and said, "I'll arrange everything." ”
That night, before Oran went to bed, there was a sudden commotion, it was in the direction of the castle tower on the king's side, and Oran was just about to see the excitement, and then the news came that there was also a fire on his side.
At the feast just now, there were too many drunk, most of the nobles couldn't wake up no matter how they screamed, and many soldiers relaxed their vigilance, and the riot broke out, and everyone grasped the situation.
Kunsang came and told Oran, "After Glock took the child to Freya, she was attacked by her, and fell in the house, and then the fire broke out, and he was taken down by the doctor just now, but his face was covered with blood, I don't know if he can save it?"
"What's going on with the King?"
"Several Vikings rushed into the room where the princess was under house arrest, and released William next door and several convicted William's henchmen, took hostages, and threatened the king to release Sally, and the king agreed."
Oran thought that when she asked Sally today who had saved him, she deliberately separated herself from what she had said, and blurted out, "Is it so hard to burn a witch?"
When Orlan appears outside the castle gates.
Seven horses, Sari, Abu, William and his henchmen, Freya with her baby in her arms, the princess, and a few Vikings, all retreated outside the gate, but the king's men and horses from outside the city also surrounded them.
After so many years of husband and wife, even if there is a conflict, Ella is still willing to save this wife.
"Bring Simon out!" Freya, who has a child around her chest, vows at this moment to save her husband.
She put her sword on the princess's neck and began to count down.
When Simon was pulled over by the prisoner cart, Oran said to his subordinates, Marcus and Tuman, "Today, I asked Sally who released her, and she slandered the two of you. ”
"Your Excellency, I don't!" Tuman responded nervously, and Marcus shook his head in response.
"I trust you, kill Shmon, and when I return to King's Landing, I will reuse you."
Everything Tuman was given by Orlan, and it was no big deal to kill a Viking, although the princess was taken hostage, Orlan had guaranteed his safety, and Tuman no longer hesitated.
Marcus considered that Bol and his former subjects could only make a move.
When Simon got out of the cart and Freya happily went to answer him, Tuman shot an arrow and hit Simon's hand, and Marcus gathered his strength and rushed up with a sword, cutting off Slime's head from behind.
Freya's cry pierced the night sky.
Oran raised his hand, "Let go of Princess Hai'an, otherwise don't even think about leaving." ”
Orlan prepares to storm and not let go, but Ella opposes.
William and the others just want to live, Abu just wants to save Sally, and Freya wants to kill the princess, but they are stopped by the others.
There was a stalemate.
At last Ella ordered the crowd to disperse, and the soldiers made a path, and the men mounted their horses and fled back and forth, and soon after they ran out, two groups of riders came after them, led by Katana and Frank.
Katana was a great horseman, galloping as well as day, approaching the traitor at speed, and with a quick eye and a fierce hand, he stabbed his spear directly when he approached, striking William's horse, causing him to lose control and fall to the ground.
The princess also woke up and fainted, but fortunately it was only a traumatic injury.
William, who was unconscious, was tied back, and the other few people who escaped were also chased and killed to varying degrees.
At dawn, three people escaped, namely Abu, Shari, and Freya.
Orlan was about to get angry, but Frank explained, "That Viking and shield girl have been hit by a few arrows in their bodies, and they are bleeding all over the ground, and they will definitely die." ”
"What about witches?"
"Don't worry, Your Excellency, if you can't escape, within today, the bodies of the three will be brought back."
"Catch the witch, purify it on the spot, the commoner does it, I reward him with knights, the nobles do it, I seal the manor for him, remember, under justice, no sin is allowed to escape."
In the morning, King Ella's face was terrible, terrible.
Shi Meng was dismembered and swallowed directly by the vicious dog.
Captured William and his henchmen were thrown into the king's special snake pit, surrounded by a swarm of snakes and devoured.
All the county magistrates witnessed this kind of torture comparable to that of a blood eagle.
"That's what happened to the Vikings." Ella sneered.
