264.Chapter 264: Noon

In the crowd, the most powerful applauding was, of course, King Otto. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info watched his son get married. He was even happier than he had been crowned king. He drank a few more glasses at the next banquet, and it seemed that he would not wake up until noon tomorrow. In addition, another parent involved in the wedding, namely Leszek von Trieste, had mixed feelings. Watching his daughter marry a stranger...... He felt really, really badly-

Yes, William, in the eyes of Archduke Lesek, was a stranger.

He did not attend any balls or salons, did not like to give speeches in public, and did not like to "exchange feelings" with aristocrats like him.

As his daughter said, William was busy, busy. I'm so busy that I don't have time to worry about those boring things.

In fact, in the eyes of Archduke Lesek, almost all of his time and energy were devoted to William's daughter, which was also very strange.

She doesn't like to be boisterous as she used to, and she doesn't do anything that doesn't conform to ladylike behavior like she used to, like hunting on horseback, or whatever. Of course, she will no longer coquettishly pull her arm and call her father.

The daughter has grown up.

The daughter married the person she liked.

From now on, her daughter's life will be far away from her...... The thought of these things made Grand Duke Leschek feel very uncomfortable.

But aside, Grand Duke Leschek breathed a sigh of relief.

The Hereford family agreed. In this way, the Trieste family will be able to continue to preserve. Although his daughter left him, she was able to live happily as a female archduke and even a queen in the end. In this way, he will also feel very relieved as a father.

In such a complicated mood, Grand Duke Leschek also drank a few more glasses, and then also lay down until noon the next day.

In the end, it was Victoria, who was more surprising, or rather unexpected, and reasonable. Her Majesty, who came from the House of Normandy, didn't know how, and felt in a bad mood - no, maybe not "I don't know how". There was one reason, William was married, and William and the bride—both brides seemed happy. Victoria was unconsciously stabbed by that happy smile.

Although she knew her identity, mission and future a long, long time ago. For the most part, she is also happy with everything about herself. She was able to look at the little happiness of ordinary people with contempt, with contempt, and disdain it.

But William was different. It's like William sees Victoria as his worst enemy. Victoria also sensed how much of a threat William and his Russia would pose to herself, to Britton.

In her heart, William's position is a little worse than herself, but she can be on an equal footing. And when she really faced William, she completely regarded William as an opponent who was equal to herself, and even stronger than herself in some places and on certain occasions.

Since you are a person of the same rank as yourself, it is natural that you should live a life of the same level as yourself, the same as yourself, and disdain those ordinary happiness. Victoria didn't think much about it, but she did think so in her heart.

But William vetoed her with practical actions, and it was rightfully so.

William is happy, and at the wedding to Charlumi and Elise, William looks happy. It's like the performance of the groom when he marries a girl he really loves.

So Victoria felt very unfair—two people who were about the same kind thought they were two people of the same kind. I always felt that there was no difference between that person and myself...... Unexpectedly, that person got something he didn't have.

This feeling.

Quite unpleasant.

Very unpleasant.

Victoria, for a time, even had a very strong urge to ruin the wedding.

Of course, as a self-proclaimed extremely rational person, Victoria put this impulse into action.

She was looking for a reason in her heart to do so—a reasonable, justified reason for her to actually do it.

But I couldn't find it.

Perhaps some high-sounding slogans could be put forward in order to prevent the Hereford family from growing further. In order to make William lose his mind, in order to blow the prestige of the Hereford family...... And so on and so forth. But that's not a reason, it's just an excuse.

So Victoria didn't do anything in the end.

So Victoria was surprised to discover a fact, a fact she didn't want to admit. That is, she has selfish intentions, and the impulses and strong desires she generates are not for Britun, not for profit. It's for your own emotions.

She just didn't want to see William so happy, so happy, so happy.

At least, she wouldn't allow William to get it until she hadn't become so happy, so happy...... It's just that she can't help it.

So Victoria got drunk too. At the feast, there was no dancing, no spying, or bargaining. She just hid in the corner and drank glass by glass.

Of course she knew that this kind of thing was wrong. If anyone sees her drinking at William's wedding banquet, wait until the next day, I don't know what kind of rumors will come out.

But Victoria didn't care.

"At least, after hearing the news, William will also feel a headache. "When I think about it, Victoria finds it very pleasant.

This kind of trick of hurting the enemy by 300 and harming herself by 1,000 is not bad for herself, she felt good for the first time......

As a result, Victoria woke up at noon the next day. The feeling of a hangover made her feel like her head was about to explode.

"Why do I drink so much alcohol?" Lying on the bed that I don't know where, Victoria hugged the pillow and looked at the ceiling, thinking to herself.

She suddenly realized the terrible truth that maybe she had lost control of her emotions before, and it wasn't just because she was jealous that William was happier than her.

"But it doesn't matter......" Victoria thought to herself, "this kind of thing...... It doesn't matter anymore. ”

Not like some romance novels, William didn't push the door open at this time. Bring breakfast to Victoria with porridge or something. He is not a fool, so he will not provoke other women just after getting married. Moreover, the more important reason is that William also woke up at noon that day......

It's not a hangover, it's just tired.

I also feel back pain.

Although it was said that the three of them were together or something, it was very pleasant at the time, but after the fact, the sequelae were still quite serious......

That's it. William and Victoria, one hugging left and right, the other alone. But at least in terms of the time it takes to get up, both of them are about the same.

After the wedding, William only had two days to enjoy. After spending a day with Elise and Charlumie, William had to go back to war. In addition to the basic state affairs, the White Army is about to start - he needs to get all the information about the northern part of the New World in the shortest possible time. The leader of the rebel army, the organizational structure of the rebel army, the composition of the rebel army, the supporters of the rebel army, the logistical supply of the rebel army, the industrial base, the war potential...... And so on and so forth.

Therefore, during this period of marriage, the place where William ran most frequently was the embassy of Briton in the Kingdom of Russia.

In a way, this added to the rumors between William and Victoria. But William didn't care too much. He also felt that a woman like Victoria would not care about such a thing - and at this time, he also began to think that Victoria was the same kind of person as himself.

After the establishment of the Russian kingdom, the focus of the Briton kingdom on the large border areas shifted from Riga in Polotsk to Novgorod, the capital of Russia, but of course, Novgorod was only a temporary capital for the Russian kingdom. The desire for the sea, the quest for wealth and world hegemony, the need for overseas colonies. Let the new kingdom need a new capital.

William set his sights on the kingdom's most important outlet to the sea. Northwest of Novgorod, an excellent port on the coast of Polotsk.

Whether it's the size of the land, the depth of the water or the condition of the harbor, this place is quite suitable. William was now just waiting to finish what was at hand, and then he could assemble an engineering army to build a port, a new town, a royal palace, and government offices there.

There will be the new capital of the Russian kingdom. And after that, the Hereford family, as well as the consulates of various other countries, will also move there.

William was very pleased with the location of the new capital. He even had a name in mind.

St. Petersburg - William declared that this was in honor of St. Peter, the first Pope of Rome. But it's like the name of the Kingdom of Russia. The actual reason is known only to William himself.

Of course, it doesn't really matter. At least no one except William felt important. Take Victoria, for example. That's what she is. She wasn't very interested in everything the Hereford family had to offer. The only thing she was concerned about now was when the Hereford family would keep their promise.

"The commission has been shipped into Hereford Bank by sea. You've probably had enough of this. Looking at William, who was in front of her, looking at the various materials of this rebellion with relish. Victoria felt a little impatient: "So, when exactly are you going to send troops?"

"It's the end of August. William didn't even raise his head, and said, "September." We agreed in September. Don't forget that. ”

"I know, but time is running out. Victoria became even more impatient when he said this.

"Yes. William continued to say in an indifferent tone: "Don't worry, there will be no delay." ”
