Time, dawn.

Location, Sky Dome.

The dark-haired wizard who stayed up all night stood in front of the window, gazing at the palace guards who had also not left all night, standing like a steel sculpture on both sides of the palace and the stairs. dew.

Loren sighed heavily.

It is only for one thing and only for one person that these northern legions can be so perseverant to stay in the palace overnight.

The coronation ceremony of Connor de Salion.

Speaking of the coronation ceremony of the imperial emperor, it can also be traced back to His Majesty Eckhart I of the second generation of the empire; to this day, only a handful of families still have this history, which records that this one opened the "great conquest" How did His Majesty the Emperor against the invasion of the monsters **** the coronation from the Holy Cross Church?

That ’s right, Sacrament, as far back as the first generation and even the ancient kingdom, is no different from any Principality today; the archbishop of the Holy Cross Church crowns the emperor-marking the power of the Holy Cross to "rule the world" Grant the emperor to allow him to control the power of the world.

On the other hand, this is also a manifestation of a certain agreement between the two parties; as early as the empire was founded, it was not the royal family that maintained the unification of the Sakran Empire; it saved people living in a fierce world ruled by evil gods and monsters. , Not a dragon ... but the Holy Cross Church;

The defender of the Holy Cross, the asylum of wisdom and truth-this title is both an honor and a promise; the emperor of the De Salion family will protect and support the church from generation to generation.

But this commitment is a little "changed" during Eckhardt I.

The emperor, who returned from the victory, first prepared himself for a grander coronation ceremony for the nobles of the whole empire on the grounds of the three things: "great conquest", "bye and boye surrender", and "marrying the queen". Come to watch the ceremony.

The church agreed happily because it also helped to increase the prestige of the church.

Immediately afterwards, His Majesty the Emperor transferred the coronation ceremony from the cathedral to the Vault of Heaven on the grounds that “Baien and Boye did not believe in the Holy Cross”.

The church also reluctantly agreed, because the powerful and faithful Valkyrie Principality deserves the emperor to do so.

In the end, the emperor hoped that he would not have to kneel during the coronation ceremonies, and at the same time appointed a priest who had a particularly good relationship with him to crown himself. The archbishop could just watch the ceremony.

Looking at the church where the emperor returned, and did not want to upset the emperor at the wedding, he gritted his teeth and agreed.

So at the coronation ceremony that year, there was an event that would not be recorded at all-the priest who was supposed to wear the crown of the emperor, even kneeled down on the emperor's knees and gave the iron crown his hands!

The proud Eckhart I not only took the crown and put it on himself, but also personally put a crown on his queen, announcing that from Lotel in the north to Bain in the south, he himself set the final frontier for the empire, while The first "King of Swords" was formed.

This far-reaching coronation ceremony was turned into "black history" in the subsequent historical materials; the priest who crowned the emperor and became an archbishop almost for a while, and later died in an unknown Assassination.

But the "coronation ceremony was held in the sky dome", but it has become a new tradition that has been retained.

………………………………………………

"Although I don't think it's necessary to repeat this kind of thing, as the Prime Minister of the Imperial Front Cabinet, it is still my traditional duty to supervise the Duke to obey the laws of the empire and make their actions in accordance with their identities at the ceremony."

Go to the center of the hallway of the main hall of the Sky Dome and put on a dark blue gilt robes. The Mettner Leopold in the curling bridle stands, smiling and looking at the Grand Duchess in front of him with a serious smile.

In other words, a group of "problem children" that can cause a headache to burst.

"Yes, we all know how to pretend to be like a good person and dress like a lady who has never been to bed!" Impatient Salika Jonahlen waved his hands and stole the old man's words:

"We will be quiet and be a good baby on Connold's big day-hello, what are your eyes? Is it true that you have never been in bed; well, look at your size. It does n’t seem strange. "

Ignoring the solemn and sharp gaze of Duke Elleman, Julie Wiltz, the scimitar sneered contemptuously, throwing her gaze away with one hand.

"I said ... who can tell me what is the difference between this coronation ceremony and the one in my hometown?" Lu Wen, who was told to attend the ceremony just after waking up, scratched his head blankly-he was the only one who did not attend yesterday The last meeting: "And, what exactly are we going to do? Do you want to kneel, I do n’t want to kneel Connold!"

"Oh, it's actually simple to say." Nolan Oder, the Grand Duke of Arles, who was also holding a knife handle and smiling with a "social predecessor" posture, explained to him very patiently:

"You don't need to kneel, we just need to sit on a chair, keep us in good shape, install puppets all the way, stand up when necessary, and shout three times," Long live the emperor "-this is the privilege of the dukes, We are only half a level lower than the emperor. "

"So what if he forced us to kneel?"

"This is also easy to handle, and I will put the knife directly on top of your head, and then you will instinctively evade-in their view, the action should be almost like kneeling."

"Hey, this method is good, thank you!"

"You're welcome, you should, you should ..."

The silent Minister of Palm Seals only smiled bitterly.

"You have become quiet, Duke Loren Turin." Metner Leopold said softly, looking at the dark-haired wizard who had not spoken from beginning to end:

"Is it becoming more cautious, or is there something else?"

"I think it's because you think too much. Your Excellency Minister Xi-I am always very cautious and don't talk much." Loren said very calmly: "But still thank you for your reminder, I will Will become more cautious. "

"The Holy Cross blessed, it couldn't have been better." Minister Zhang Xi smiled happily, with some emotion: "There are always people who think that heroes and great men should dare to act, but they don't know that it is essential to be careful."

"There is a bottom line and principle, which is the biggest difference between heroes and villains; prudence and stability are the amulets of the knights, blessing them from the unfavorable and unfavorable on the battlefield."

After finishing the speech, the Minister of the Seal of the Palm, with a certain expression on his face, turned and left; the court guards on both sides approached immediately, "guarding" the Duke to the main hall of the Sky Dome.

The Duke frowned as he looked at the heavily armed soldiers beside him, holding their shields and holding the blades.

Although in the empire tradition, the royal guard of the Sky Dome “accompanys” belongs to the honor and treatment that only the duke can enjoy, but now the sword is struggling, and the pair of fierce mansions exposed from under the helmet, obviously and any “honour” It doesn't matter, it's more like a jailer escorting a prisoner.

Feeling the extremely depressed atmosphere, even Lu Wen, who didn't care much about it, also felt that something was not right; Salika Jonah snorted even more, deliberately speeding up her steps to express her dissatisfaction, directly Ignore the guards' warning eyes.

"It's really a grand, extraordinary coronation ceremony."

With a greasy smile, Nolan Odd deliberately approached the black-haired wizard and said: "This coronation ceremony full of legion style is worthy of the emperor returning from the Fortress of the Boundary Mountain, which is really surprising-he probably has already been divided Is the difference between the Qing Fortress and the palace? "

"Where and where, when it comes to surprise, you are the one that surprised me the most." Loren, who raised his mouth and looked back, sneered a little:

"The Principality of Arles and the royal family of Desalion have been hostile to each other for twelve generations, but they have put a stop to your hands-the first Grand Duke of Arles who surrendered and allied with the emperor, you will definitely be famous in a hundred years. history."

"Overwhelming, I'm just good at judging the situation."

Nolan Odd, who raised his eyebrows and showed his fangs, chuckled, as if he didn't hear Loren's sneer: "The situation is now that Brandon already has you and Duke of Sallyka, you and The relationship between the Duke of Ruben is so good; Arles, who is sandwiched between Byrne and Lotel, wants to survive, of course, hugging the thighs of the royal family. "

"Of course, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Connold is willing to support me at most, even if he is willing to support me; the only thing that can really threaten Arles is Byrne under your command; so if you and His Highness Brandon need the emperor's information, you can come Find me-I am a person who likes to make friends, especially those who have money and power! "

Looking at his "sincere and enthusiastic" smile, Loren, who had been silent for a long time, only spit out a sentence for a long time:

"... Your Nolan Eard, you are really a real person."

"If you rule the six-party territory of Arles like me, and build your own country on the saline land filled with deserts and monsters, you will be as real as me." Nolan Oder grinned:

"The Holy Cross gave Byrne the most fertile land in the world, and Lothal's forest full of prey, leaving only the barren land and a bunch of treacherous and greedy, arrogant and stubborn rulers in Arles."

"My uncle was cut off by the mob of tax resistance while he was taking a shower; the first thing my grandfather did that year when he became the Duke was to **** my father ’s mother ’s family ’s territory and appease his men without making him. The opposite. "

The Duke of Arles spoke slowly, as the group of people walked up the stairs to the main hall and said: "So, all the other Dukes only have to deal with outsiders; the master of Arles before dealing with outsiders, I have to fight with my family first ... Look, the sky dome palace, we are here. "

Stepping into the hall, the first thing that caught Loren's sight was still in the center, the coat of arms of the De Salion family-the iron crown lifted by the three-headed dragon.

Compared with the last Yuqian trial, the lobby is now very simple, except for the chandelier above the head and the tapestry on both sides, almost no decorations can be found; even these things seem very dissonant, like a rush Moved from another palace.

There are many guests already in the hall, but compared with their number, it is obviously still a larger number of legionnaires-if it is not the daylight and the tapestry on both sides, it is really people who are in the barracks. illusion.

Looking at the hall with a pleasant atmosphere, there were guests-mainly imperial nobles and invited wizards and priests-almost everyone stretched their faces, with a grudging smile.

With a single order, they can be bloodshed on the spot.

On the contrary, the Dukes who had just "seen the scene" were at ease at this moment, without any uncomfortable expression; after all, no matter how much they want the emperor who monopolizes power, they will not dominate their vassals in their coronation ceremony. Slaughter.

Of course, what is more important is that the troops from the six Principality "watching ceremony" have arrived in the imperial capital at the moment, and they are stationed outside the palace gate of the Sky Dome. Once there is a change, the army of nearly 10,000 people gathered together in less than a quarter of an hour. You can break through the sky vault just recently renovated.

At least, the Duke thought so.

"This will probably be recorded in the coronation ceremony of the" most legion style ", just like the coronation ceremony of Queen Mad Dragon's" most like dinner and drama, and marriage proposal "style."

With a ridiculous expression, Nolan Odd, who ignored the sight of Julie Wiltz behind him, still sneered: "However ... it is quite in line with the current situation."

"An emperor who is dying and is about to face an empire in a battle of survival. The" Legion style "really fits well-I do n’t know how many legions we need to die to save this empire; 1. One hundred? Two hundred? "

"Still say ... I have to sacrifice another emperor of the DeSalinese family, and let a hero bear the notoriety-just like the great conquest of Eckhart I, the battle of the **** valley of the" sage "Brandon , Like the final battle of the Queen Mad Dragon-the emperors always get what they want, but sometimes the result may not be the same as they think.

The Duke of Arles, who meant something, set his sights on a few figures under the coat of arms of DeSalle.

There were two more figures accompanying Connold de Salion.

The one on the left is the well-known Minister of the Seal, Metternich Leopold, standing hand in hand.

On the right is an old man with a drooping old man. While holding a cane, two young men in priestly uniforms are needed to help him stand on the spot.

"You ..."

"In this painful and tragic, noble and sacred day-the authority given to me by the Minister of the Seal, I hereby solemnly declare to everyone;"

The gentle voice of Minister Zhang Xi sounded so clear in a depressing hall, with every character carrying an indescribable power.

"My emperor is dead ..."

"Long live my emperor—!"
