Chapter 91: The Oath
"Is everybody here? Well, well, it looks like everyone is on time -- living up to my expectations of everyone. ”
Alice Phil, who looked very happy, was dressed in a casual dress with white gold trim, which was "designed" by Cybertron himself. Her long silver hair fell down her waist, and her clothes were embroidered with a pattern on her chest - a castle. Over there is Einz Bellenburg, which represents its own family coat of arms.
It is worth mentioning that this time almost all the people in attendance were in similar formal attire. The merchants uniformly embroidered the coat of arms of the Einsbelen family on the chest of their clothes, indicating that they followed their masters, while the noble class was different. He wears a robe or ceremonial robe, embroidered with the traditional family emblem of his own family, or the traditional family emblem of his own family. Several of the former ministers of the Francis family also wore small gold badges to signify their more important status.
But now a whole hundred people gathered around the huge hall, watching the charismatic lady in the middle give her own speech. Or rather, the hundred people sat in a square and listened to the teachings of their mistress.
As soon as Alice Phil finished saying a word of praise to everyone, polite applause rang out all around. But everyone knew the rules, and after a few seconds, they stopped and continued to listen to Alice Field.
"I'm sure everybody knows that, and I don't have to say more. Our family is thriving, thanks to all of you. My dear retainers, my dear friends, my dear dear ones. I would now like to thank you, old friends and new friends. I have been the patriarch of my family for five years...... No, it's been almost six years. I have always been on a glorious path with you, and our great family will not be lost for any reason. The family is what you are doing. Family is our one qiē, and family is our love. We sacrificed a lot to end the strife, and the Kanarfon, a qiē, was all for it. Its happiness is also my happiness, and it is the happiness of tens of thousands of people in the territory to which Canafon belongs. I'm sure that in the days to come, you will continue to support me—"
At the end, Alice Phil stretched out her right hand and made an inviting gesture to everyone in front of her.
Of course, there are no no heads-ups present, there are so many guards outside...... Applaud, applaud warmly, lest I clap my ass loudly enough, not shameless enough, and be looked down upon by my peers.
"So...... Come to me, dear Sir Wallis. "The next step is to divide the heroes, and to be precise, it should be to establish the basis of their own rights. It is impossible to support without one, and Alice Phil smiled and invited a broken nobleman. The man was about fifty years old, with blond hair and a bushy beard. Dressed in armor and covered with battle robes, embroidered with three sharp swords.
"Thank you for your support of me in the war - may I ask you, sir, will you support me as you have always been?"
"Willing to die for you, my lady. Half-kneeling in front of Alice Field, Sir Wallis was thrilled.
"Thank you very much—would you like to be one of my city senators?"
"Thank you for your trust!"
"Well, thank you, sir, you're already my senator. ”
followed a routine, and then immediately replaced. Senators are different from ordinary members of parliament in that they have more power. As everyone thinks, Alice Fell did not divide the territory of her vassals, although she was already a baroness, and the king himself recognized it. But everyone also knows that she is actually more of a "new aristocracy" -- based on commerce! You can't get the territory, but you can get the same amount of gold as the territory income.
As always, Alice Phil chose seven people to be his senators, including nobles, merchants, and even monster mercenaries, with an average age of around forty years old.
"I also have a few other things to tell you about here. The first ...... I'm sure you've all heard about it, so I won't say anything more. Alice Phil smiled, even a little shyly: "I won't say anything more, or hide anything." This man who saved me, this man who gave his life for me, this man who gave Kanaphon for me - please bless us. This is Cybertron, Hell Roar, Bourkeso, my husband -- if you have any opinions, please speak now. ”
Well, there is no need to say anything, people are completely famous.
Applaud, those who don't applaud are probably going to die.
What does the last sentence mean? Have an opinion? Who dares to have an opinion? Half of the opponent's body is still oxidized at the city gate, and the other half has been thrown into the ground to fatten.
Of course, everyone won't say it on the surface, and it's useless to say it in private.
"Thank you so much for your blessings, for the wedding ceremony...... I was married, and I honestly wasn't thirteen years old at the time, so I felt ...... Very bad. Alice Phil shook her head helplessly, as if she was very unhappy: "It's not a very happy marriage, if it can be called a marriage?...... Well, I won't mention him, but this marriage has taught me a lot of lessons, such as the marriage ceremony that makes me sick - the marriage ceremony is postponed, and I will talk about it in thirty or fifty years. ”
“......”
Everyone present was stunned and didn't know what to do, only that their hostess was now unusually tough. I really dare to say anything, but I guess people have seen it. No matter how painful things are, I have already experienced them, and even the sad years have survived. I have survived for more than ten years, and now I am standing here as the lord of a city, loudly declaring my happiness and calling my own decisions.
...... Well, is this the dawn of otherworldly feminism?
"The other thing is more problematic...... By the way, everyone knows that Su Gelan has betrayed the party, right?"
Everyone nodded like chickens pecking rice—if they didn't know they were going to die.
"As for Lan Dun, His Majesty the King, His Majesty the Queen and His Excellency the Patriarch thank you for the last royal orthodoxy. The same ...... They also invited me to join me on the New York front. Alice Phil smiled and said, "What do you think about going to war with the army?"
