Chapter 1488: Common Goals, New Life Movement
Then, the wedding officially began.
Under the statue of the Codex, Leiden first read out the articles related to marriage and family in the "Great Xia Code" in public, and then asked the ten couples:
"Is your union voluntary?"
"Yes!" The ten couples replied unanimously.
"After you get married, will you be able to care for each other, love each other, and help each other until the end of your life?"
"Yes!"
"In the name of the lord, the law, and the order, I declare the marriage contract established!"
Then, Layton led ten pairs of newlyweds to recite the Lord's Quote under the statue of the sacred Codexβ
"We all come from different regions and come together for a common goal, and that common goal is to build a future that truly belongs to us!
"Now we have 11,000 companions, but this is not enough, we need more companions in the future. At this time, the people of Langas are suffering, and the people of Nayse are not happy, and it is our responsibility to rescue them and unite them.
"Let's work together, struggle together, and run together to a beautiful new era!"

Looking at this scene, Xia Duo felt both joy and relief in his heart, but also a little embarrassed, when there were few people in the territory, he thought of using the form of "the lord's words" to simply regulate the life and work of the lords.
After the number of people in the territory increased, it was still used, as a supplement to the legal code, and as a direct instruction at a higher level.
It's just that in front of Nia, being performed in front of such a large group of people, Xia Duo still feels a little uncomfortable, especially when the early lord's quotations are used for literacy teaching, and many lords are very familiar with the quotations.
When Leiden recited with ten pairs of newcomers, the people watching the ceremony in the square also recited in unison, and the earlier they shouted, the louder they became.
Of course, in addition to the slightest embarrassment seen by Nia, Xia Duo was more relieved.
As long as the mind is emancipated step by step, these subjects have the opportunity to become equal beings to him, not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of personality, dignity, social status, etc.
Shado didn't want a puppet private kingdom, in which case the kingdom might collapse if he died.
But if there are countless like-minded people with him, even if he dies, his thoughts and ideas will be passed on, and the future he hopes for will eventually be built.
Immortal Xia Duo has already obtained, but eternal life, and even eternity, with his current understanding, even gods are not eternal, maybe not even eternal life, where can he get the scene of eternal life!
Of course, although Xia Duo has no hope for immortality, he still has an immense desire for immortality, and between being able to see the birth of a civilization soaked in his mind with his own eyes, and having his successors build it, he still looks forward to the former.

After the wedding, the atmosphere of celebration in the square lasted for a long time, and countless people surrounded the ten couples to ask questions, and even some bold children wanted to reach out and touch the red dresses on the newlyweds.
As a result, he couldn't touch anything, and only caused the adults around him to laugh.
Seeing this scene in Xia Duo's eyes, he also smiled, and then left the square with Nia and returned to the government hall with Layton.
It's far from Codex Square, but you can still hear the cheers that are high from time to time.
This added warmth to the cold winter day, and after sitting down in the inner room, Xia Duo asked Leiden, "How is the New Life Movement going?" β
"It's going well, life in the territory is very stable, once the Langas get used to it, they don't want to go back to the past, at least some of the warriors still want to go out hunting, and I've asked the territorial guards to arrange recruitment."
Next, Leiden gave a detailed introduction to several activities that have been carried out recently, "The cooking competition organized by the logistics department has received a high response from the people, and even those Langas who have not yet learned the language of Nayse have enthusiastically signed up, and there is a momentum that is not to be left behind.
"So far, more than 20 winners have been selected for the competition, and more than 10 new dishes have been created that have been unanimously recognized by everyone, and they are now added to the territory canteen.
"The Pioneer Department also organized skills competitions, divided into carpentry, masonry, leathermaking, hunting, taming, etc., and at the suggestion of Elder Atwood, there was an additional reel race."
"Reel racing?"
Hearing this name that was both familiar and unfamiliar, Xia Duo instantly thought of something, "It can't be-"
"Yes."
Layton nodded, explaining, "This scroll race is for those apprentices sent to the Tower of Time by the territory, and it is compared to the number of magic scrolls that can be made in the allotted time.
"Didn't your lord give the territorial guards and the sheriff's office a lot of magic scrolls for training? It's not a waste to spend a little bit of your share on skills competitions.
"All the apprentices who sign up for the competition need to go to the guard or security station to complete the teaching task, although it is not long, but it can also bring some new inspiration to the guard or security officer."
"Well, this matter is well done, those apprentices from the territory will not all stay in the Tower of Time in the future, they will definitely have to go back to the territory to arrange, now let them contact the people and things of the territory in advance, it will also be beneficial for them."
Chateau first affirmed Leiden's approach, but also proposed -
"This kind of activity involving magic still needs to pay attention to safety, whether it is for the parties or the onlookers, we must do a good job of safety and security.
"If you need it, ask the Tower of Time for support, don't feel inconvenient to speak, I have already taken care of the task management office of the Tower of Time, and I will give priority to the needs of the Great Xia Leader."
"Yes, sir, I'll take notice."
Layton replied solemnly.
β¦β¦
Then, Shado asked some questions about the new leaders of the Gray Eagle Tribe, and Layton answered them all, after which Shado returned to the Tower of Time with Nia.
When she noticed that the teleportation location was in the teleportation room, Niya couldn't help but hug Xia Duo's arm, "Are you leaving again?" β
"Yes, anyway, I have to report back to the Severynton Council when I come back from Akoura, and besides, the teacher's affairs have reached a critical moment, so I can't stay here."
"And when are you coming back?"
"It's not up to me, but I promise I'll be back at least once a month."
When Shado said this, Nia didn't say anything, but silently let go of Shado's arm, and then Shado lowered his head and kissed Nia on the forehead, and then stepped on the teleportation circle to Severn.
β¦β¦
Severton, Austro-French Federation.
As soon as Xia Duo walked out of the teleportation room, he received a message from Iolem, his tone was urgent, but he did not say anything specific, which made Xia Duo happy and surprised.
Could it be that there has been a breakthrough in the independent Austrian fire device? Or maybe something happened?
