vs 13 Coronation as king
Today, Kaval Fort seems to be more noisy than ever, and before dawn the whole castle seems to be in the summer season of cicadas and birds.
Erin Phier leaned against the head of the bed, looking at the empty room, and there was nothing on the other side of the large bed, where her husband had been lying.
"Hey!"
There was helplessness in the sigh.
Last night, Pedi didn't return all night, and the maid reported that he had spent the night in the front office office.
Eileen Phil didn't sleep well last night, and she woke up in a state of confusion after a series of dreams. As for the content of the dreams, she forgot them all when she woke up, but the tear stains in the corners of her eyes and the feeling of still palpitations made her know that those dreams were not good.
"Pedaling"
With her bare feet on the thick carpet, Eileen Phil slowly approached the window.
Another year passed, and the dead leaves of the two old banyan trees in the garden spread all over the garden, and Erin Phiel liked the feeling of falling leaves covering the ground, so these dead leaves were preserved.
As time passed, the noise of the castle grew louder and louder, and Eileen knew that these were the young knights in the outer court.
Annoyed by the endless noise, Eileen Phil stretched out her right hand to draw a somewhat complicated circle, and when the circle took shape, she disappeared into the room and her figure appeared in the yellow garden.
"Squeak... Squeak..."
Erin Fielde walked slowly down the garden path, the autumn leaves making a pleasant crunch at her feet.
When the surrounding maids saw the sudden appearance of the hostess, they quickly stopped talking and came over to salute.
But Eileen Phil was not as approachable as she used to be, and she didn't even look at the maid who saluted her. She stood quietly between the two banyan trees in the garden, letting the cool autumn breeze blow her body, staring a little blankly at the occasional dead leaves that fell in the air.
She stood like this for a long time...
The autumn mist gradually disappeared with the loss of time, the distant mountains slowly became clear in the morning light, the newborn sun slowly rose, bringing a hint of warmth, and a few birds resting among the banyan trees flew out of the yard with a crisp call.
Lately, Eileen Fair's mood has not been calm, and the title of Duchess and the castle life she has never experienced before have prompted her to change her previous hobbies and habits, and she has been overwhelmed by all kinds of dazzling banquets and tea parties.
She wears out the sweet words and hypocrisy of the aristocracy, and she hates this life!
Actually, she is more afraid of the upcoming coronation than Pedi!
Because that means that her husband will spend less and less time with her. She was well aware that family was worthless to a king. She feared that her husband's affection for her would fade away, just as her father had done to her mother.
The fear from her heart almost broke her,
Helpless, she was as uneasy as a boat in a raging storm.
She sometimes wished she could be the all-powerful queen of the knights, helping the king who loved him to run the country and repel the dark forces that wanted to overthrow her husband's rule.
But the reality is not the same,
She is strong on the outside, but extremely fragile on the inside.
'What can make me stronger!'
She prayed daily to the all-knowing and all-powerful Goddess, expecting guidance from the Goddess.
"My dear. ”
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in her ears.
This voice made Eileen Fil wake up from the ocean of her thoughts, and gradually it became clear that a familiar figure in front of her was imprinted into her eyes.
"I'm thinking about the fresh air in the garden and the active elemental forces that will allow me to feel my best. An unconscious smile appeared on her face.
Every time she saw her husband, she couldn't help but put a smile on her face.
"You don't look your best. Pedi walked in as she spoke, took Eileen Fil in her arms, and gently touched Irene Fil's cold cheeks with a pair of warm thugs.
Eileen felt that she was instantly enveloped in a fire, and the feeling that was slightly warmer than the sun shining on her body made her body addicted for a while.
"I'm sorry. Pedi apologized softly.
"What?" said Eileen, "why do you apologize?" ”
"All I can say about the coronation is that I'm sorry. Pedi gently brushed the messy filaments off his wife's face, "I know this isn't the life you want, but neither of us has a choice. He knew that the education of a mage and the education of a nobleman were completely different things, and he knew even more that it would be a sin for a magician at the level of a magic professor to stay in the castle every day and chat and drink tea with a group of noble ladies.
"Coronation as queen, but what Crewe dreams of all the girls. Erin Phil pressed her face to Pedy's chest, "Don't worry, I will try my best to be a good queen." ”
"My mother just talked to me about something. Pedi whispered, "She told me about her youth... It reminds me of something from my childhood. ”
"What do you want to say?" said Eileen, looking directly at her husband.
"I just want to tell you that no matter what happens, you are my wife, I am the king, but also your husband, and I will cherish my kingdom and respect my family even more. With that, Pedi gently kissed Erin Phier on the lips, then looked up at his wife seriously, and said with some twists: "I... Well, I love you, Erin Phil."
After Irene heard her husband's last words, her blue eyes seemed to be a lot bigger in an instant, and the smile on her face was even more irrepressible, her eyebrows became flushed with excitement, and she subconsciously hugged her husband's neck with her backhand and took the initiative to kiss her husband's lips.
The two got engaged, got along, and got married, all as if they were all pre-arranged stage plays, without the slightest passion at all.
The phrase 'I love you' was the first thing Pedi said to Erin Phil.
An indescribable sweet feeling instantly filled Erin Phil's heart, and the happiness in her heart instantly dispelled the haze that had accumulated in her heart.
After the two kissed for more than ten seconds, Erin Phier let go of her husband and said affectionately: "I love you too, dear." Then she looked at Pedi expectantly, her talking eyes as if telling Pedi to say it again.
In Erin Field's expectant eyes, Pedi whispered again, "I love you." ”
Erin Phil was amused by Pedy's appearance at the moment, and she couldn't stop giggling.
"I'm talking about it once. ”
"Say what?"
"You know that. ”
"I don't know. ”
"You know!"
“...... I love you. ”
...
As for Pedi's coronation, there are actually some people in the Kru Command who have different opinions, and they believe that the coronation of the throne is similar to the old system of the old empire. In other words, they were afraid that after Pedi's coronation, they would abandon the reforms and restore the institutions of the old empire.
But Pedi doesn't intend to explain, because his rights come from himself, not from someone else's gift.
In the year 1217 of the continental calendar, at nine o'clock in the morning on October 29,
Escorted by the guard of honour and the knightly guards of the Fort de Caval, Pedi and his wife, Eilefehr, slowly drove out of the gates of Cavalo in a huge carriage drawn by eight pure white horses, behind them a large number of scholars, bishops of churches, representatives of the nobility, and prominent magicians.
For the next four hours, Pedi will lead his supporters from Kawar Fort and follow the established route around the city before returning to Kawar Fort.
Pedi in the carriage wore a short-sleeved gown characteristic of the Crewe Collar, with medals symbolizing military exploits arranged in sequence on his chest, a dark red cloak with a giant bear on his back, and a scepter of the Hand of Justice, which symbolized justice and fairness.
The unique military music "Burning Sky" of the Crewe people sounded under the performance of the honor guard, and the solemn and sacred procession started on time...
Gorgeous petals slowly fell as the girls tossed them as the procession marched, followed by cheers that resounded through the sky and poured out of the mouths of the citizens.
...
When Pedy's arm was waving and dislocating, and his eardrum was "buzzing", the huge procession finally completed the long procession.
Pedi and Erin Phil entered the Hall of Kawalburg with the nobles and representatives of all parties in turn, and walked towards the throne in the deepest upper echelons under the gaze of everyone.
The throne was newly built, made of stainless steel, and its surface was coated with a layer of purple gold powder, and the back and armrests were carved with important historical images of the Kru Territory from its founding to the present day.
Next to the throne there was a small altar on which a golden crown and a silver crown were placed.
Unlike the old empire, Pedi did not have a crown for him, but he himself crowned himself, suggesting that his royal power came from himself and not from someone else.
Then, the final part of the coronation is the proclamation of the name of the country and the reading of the coronation oath.
"Everyone!" Pedi's gaze first looked at his father, who was also wearing a gown and cloak that symbolized the king, but without a crown.
His gaze only swept over his father, and then he looked at the others...
In the first row were the Marquis de Daisily Pombo, Sir Sir Cyrah Marne, Sir Edwin Flynn, Sir Bipp, Baron Hanina, and the old orc Morinda in the corner;
In the second row are representatives of the local nobility and several bishops of the city church, such as Geerbock Donner, Jakef Borg, and Kunna Marne, who wears a lord's garb in place of her father, among others;
Behind them were the representatives of the scholars, merchants, mages, unions, guild presidents, and citizens of the cities.
"From this day forward, you can call yourselves nationals of the Kingdom of Kruria. ”
"Long live the Kingdom of Kruria!"
"Long live Your Majesty Pedi!"
The cheers lasted a full five minutes,
Then Pedi began to read the oath under the gaze of countless eyes:
"The gods bear witness that I will uphold the integrity of the kingdom of Kruria, respect the country and cause respect for its laws, religious beliefs, equality of rights, civil liberties..."
Applause and cheers again interrupted Pedi's vow,
Another five minutes later, when the voice gradually subsided, Pedi continued to take the oath:
"I will protect the property of the citizens from infringement, collect taxes only according to the law, preserve the honor of the national legion, and rule only for the good, happiness and honor of the citizens of the Kingdom of Cruria!"
"The first king of the Crewe people has been crowned and enthroned!" said Daisily Pombo, standing at the foot of the steps to the left hand of Pedi, raising his hands and shouting excitedly, "Long live Your Majesty!"
The military music played again, and countless people in the hall echoed, and the knights and soldiers on the school field outside the hall also shouted, and a few seconds later, the countless people gathered in the twilight square also shouted.
The whole city of Crewe shouted: "Long live His Majesty!"
To the cheers of the crowd, Pedi brought another crown to Eilefeld's head to crown his wife.
"Long live Her Majesty!"
The continuous cheering lasted a full ten minutes,
Everyone was so excited that their faces were red, and countless people shouted hoarsely.
When everyone was too tired, Pedi announced that the celebration had officially begun.
Prepared barbecues and sake are brought into the hall, and when the aroma begins to disperse, the sound of 'cooing' suddenly rises one after another.
These people are really hungry, and they want to go to the toilet since last night to prevent the march in order to participate in the coronation.
Thus, the continuous overeating continued for a whole afternoon.
When it was dark, Daisily Pombo, as the prime minister of the kingdom, respectfully walked up the steps, bowed his head respectfully and saluted: "Your Majesty the Kingdom, Your Majesty the Queen. As he spoke, he pulled out a delicate purple wood box from his sleeve as if by magic.
Drunken Pedi suddenly reacted, it was time for everyone to offer gifts.
This ritual was developed during the nomadic period of mankind, and the trouble-fearing Pedi had intended to abolish this link during his coronation, but the nobles disagreed.
Erin Phier took the place of Pedy's gift, and Pedi pulled out the saber at his waist and gently struck it on Daisily Pombo's head... As Pedi lowered his sword, the old marquis slowly withdrew gratefully.
Next up was Sira Marne, who offered a suit of armor that was the trophy of her battle at Fort Herien, the best armor that was given to the Lockton family by their Reagan ancestors two hundred years ago.
Pedi looked at the armor in the iron box and asked, "Are you really willing?"
"I believe that only His Majesty is qualified to collect it in the entire kingdom!"
"This is the first time you've complimented me. Pedi couldn't help but let out a hearty smile, and when Erin Phier stepped forward to receive the gift, he himself stood up and took the box and put it in the gift room at the back.
When Sira Marne stepped back, Irene Phill whispered in Pedy's ear, "You seem to be happy with Sir Sir Sira's compliments. ”
"Because she never compliments people. Pedi shrugged.
The third person who came up was Edwin Filming, whose gift was two sets of gowns made of the feathers of the jumping birds of the western sea, which were said to be waterproof and demon-resistant. Pedi didn't dare to be interested, but Eileen Phile liked it because it was a couple's outfit.
Then came Baron Hanina,
Then, there were Sir Bipp, Baron Danmen-Green and other important ministers...
More than ten minutes later,
With humility and respect, Viscount Geeberk Donner walked up the steps and knelt down on one knee before Pedi, "Your Majesty, the Donna family is willing to give everything Harrensburg has to support your cause. ”
As he spoke, he held a beautiful piece of parchment in both hands above his head.
