In the early morning, Kurona woke up from the tranquility. The thousand-year capital of the Knight Kingdom has not been as lively as it is today for many years. After the huge envoy brought by Emperor Carl Franz entered Kurona, people from
The great nobles of the empire soon began to visit various scenic spots in the city. The attendants of the Dukes of Britannia and most of the nobles in the kingdom also arrived, and the entire capital was extremely lively.
The old knight king Richard has withdrawn from the palace with his attendants. Now there are only some of Laun's attendants left in the palace, the guards and servants of the Corona Palace who represent the tradition of the knight kingdom, and Sulia herself.
group of retainers.
Even so, the palace still looks very empty. If you look closely at those historic and splendid corridors and halls, you can find that many corners have shown signs of decay. A small number of towers have ceased to be used, including the southeast corner of the entire palace and
There are three towers in the southwest corner that are basically not in use anymore.
The royal palace has witnessed the rise and fall of the entire kingdom of knights, and it itself can let people see how much strength Britannia still has today.
In the early morning, Veronica, who was dressed up in costume, visited the Corona Palace under the leadership of Morgiana. When she thought that her man was about to ascend the throne, the Witch of Gloria was still very excited. She even thought about whether
She wanted to move her wizard tower here, but Morgiana clearly told her that this was impossible. Except for the Lake God Prophet or the Lake God Witch herself, no other spellcasters would be allowed in the entire palace. Veronica could
It would be nice to have a room.
"Ouch~" Veronica only felt that her legs were weak. She was tired after walking a few steps, so she had to say to Morgiana: "Your Highness Morgiana, can we rest for a while? I...
My legs are a little weak, I think I need to rest."
"...Okay." Morgiana nodded unnaturally. She motioned for Veronica to follow her. The two opened a room and sat down to rest. Veronica rubbed her waist. The Witch of Gloria recalled
Thinking about what happened last night, his face turned red: "Your Highness Morgiana, don't you feel tired? I feel like my legs are weak."
After Veronica said this, Morgiana also recalled what happened after the banquet last night. She adjusted her skirt and sat upright, covering up her embarrassment, and deliberately said in a cold voice: "Then
The shoes you are wearing are too high, right? The heels of your shoes are eight centimeters high, right?"
"Ten centimeters." Veronica stretched out her hand and took off the high heels from her feet wrapped in black stockings. She looked at Morgiana with some humor: "Why, can't it? I just like wearing this, that's right.
These are not the shoes you wore last night."
"Were you all like that before?" Morgiana's face turned red, and she said speciously: "I mean, after you and Ryan met?"
"That's not true." Veronica shook her head: "My relationship with him was very pure in the early days, but his hobbies have never changed."
"Is that so?" Morgiana was obviously very interested in Ryan's affairs. She thought about it and then asked: "I always feel that Ryan treats you very differently. He seems to be more assured and more indulgent towards you.
He doesn't have this attitude toward me."
"Hmph~" Veronica smiled maliciously: "Are you envious? It's a pity that you don't have a chance, Your Highness Morgiana."
"I don't want to quarrel with you, but I must admit, Ms. Veronica, you really like to provoke conflicts." Morgiana obviously had no intention of quarreling with Veronica. She was holding the Holy Grail of Potion in her hand: "
I think this may be related to your early experiences. You can just call me Morgiana. I give you permission to call me that. After all, this is not the first time... the three of us have been together."
Seeing that Morgiana was not fooled, Veronica twitched her lips, and there was some interest in her bright face: "What about you?"
"My experience cannot be disclosed." Morgiana shook her head, her beautiful oval face seemed to be reminiscing about something: "What I can tell you is that my experience is not as rich and magical as you think.
When the lady chose me to be the reincarnation of Mariana, the previous Lake Witch, my destiny to become the Lake Witch was already destined.
, I accepted all the magic, knowledge and power of Mariana, and I became Morgiana. I have been here like this for decades, usually studying and practicing in the Tower of the Lake God Witch in Carcassonne, fixed every year
Time took in those boys and girls with magical potential, coordinated and mediated the relationship between the dukes, until I met Ryan."
"It's really rare that I can actually learn these things from your mouth." Veronica knew that this was the limit of what Morgiana could say. The Witch of Gloriosa simply sat cross-legged on the chair. She opened the window and saw the atrium of the palace.
At a glance: "Ah, what a refreshing breeze."
Morgiana pointed to the round tower located in the center of the palace outside the window and introduced: "That is the round tower. That tower was built when the third knight king 'White Death' Guillaume ruled Britannia.
At that time, the round tower was used to house criminals and political prisoners. After the Dole Tower incident, it began to be used as a place to store books, historical documents and perform paperwork, and Regent Lawn usually worked here."
"On the west side of the round tower are the Holy Grail Chapel, Lady's Chapel, Arthur's Chapel, Britannia Cloister, Lewis Courtyard and Guillaume Courtyard, as well as the small farm built by King Louis himself." Morgiana continued:
"After Richard's meeting with Emperor Luitpold, Richard specifically allowed a room in the castle to be used for worship and prayers to other gods."
"The east side of the round tower is the king's main activity area. The east side is composed of a horseshoe-shaped building complex. They are the diplomatic hall where the state banquet was held last night, the main castle where the king lives, the kingdom court and the Britannia clock.
Tower." Morgiana held out her hand
Pointing to the east: "It is worth mentioning that if Ryan chooses to live in the palace, the only place he can control is the main castle. Other places have their own rules and operating methods, but the main castle has more than one
One hundred rooms are usually enough."
"Ryan will only live here for a long time because he has a brain problem." Veronica sneered: "Anyway, I still feel comfortable living in my own castle or wizard tower."
"Actually, since the Dole Tower incident, the Knight Kings have not lived in Kurona for a long time." Morgiana understood this: "As for what Ryan wants to do, that is his choice."
"By the way, in addition, the Royal Zoo in Corona is also within the palace, located in the northwest corner. The Royal Hippogryphs, Royal Pegasus and the pure-blood elf war horses there are also owned by Ryan."
Morgiana sees that Veronica seems to have real legs
He couldn't go away softly, so he simply continued the introduction: "Even though I don't like Richard, to be fair, Richard managed the Royal Zoo well. After him, Raun also inherited Richard's management style.
The zoo here is well managed.”
"Great!" Veronica's eyes lit up: "I have long wanted a purebred Pegasus of my own."
"...You must first wait for Ryan to ascend the throne and officially obtain the throne, and then wait for his permission." Morgiana said coldly: "If you try to obtain a mount without authorization, I have the right to take you into custody."
"He won't deny it to me!" Veronica said tit for tat.
"Then you have to go through the established procedures. These are the rules." Morgiana thought to herself that Veronica was really like a hedgehog. Even if she didn't mess with her, she would still show off her sharpness from time to time.
"Yes, we have to go through the established procedures. Pure-blooded elf war horses cannot be exported. This is our basic national policy in Britannia. If I want to change this national policy, I must obtain at least two-thirds of the votes from the Duke Council.
And with the approval of Her Highness Morgiana." Ryan took the Duke of Britannia and the electors of the empire to visit the Royal Zoo.
When the electors saw the pure-blood elf war horses in the stables, they couldn't walk, and they all asked, out of the friendship between the two countries, should you send us some pure-blood elf war horses?
Ryan said that I have no objection. You go to Her Highness Morgiana. As long as she agrees, I have no objection.
Wolfram Hertwig, Speaker of the Ostermark League and Elector of Beckafen, couldn't stop laughing: "Forget it, Lord Lane, it doesn't matter if you don't want to give, don't play these tricks."
"If you have a way around these tricks, I welcome you to tell me, Lord Hertwig." Ryan retorted with a smile: "Don't forget, this is the land given to us by the goddess, and I am not the only one in this country.
Yes, don’t say that I am not the king now, even if I am the king, I must be responsible for all the people."
"Personal interests can never override the interests of the kingdom, Hertwig, don't force Ryan like this." Karl Franz said a fair word for Ryan. Naturally, the emperor of the empire also experienced the electors.
Asking and plundering: "If nothing else, are you willing to share your gryphon blood feathers with others?"
"Humph, I didn't mean that. I was just asking casually." Wolfram's attitude remained strong.
"Speaking of which, Lord Hertwig, has there been any movement in Kislev recently? Having lost so many troops, it must be very difficult financially, right?" Ryan was not surprised by Wolfram's attitude.
The elector has always been sensitive and has a bad temper, but he is indeed an excellent warrior and a qualified ruler.
It was because he did not listen to the advice of the Grand Master of the Knights of Eternal Light when he was young and caused huge losses. After that, the elector's character became sensitive and tough. He always felt sorry for losing his life because of his stupidity in his youth.
A soldier, he has been fighting on the front line for many years, trying to correct his mistakes.
"Katalin and her court once held a meeting about whether to come to Kurona to attend your coronation ceremony." As expected, Wolfram didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him. He said directly: "But
No one thinks you can do it for Keesler
What did the husband do, so this proposal was quickly rejected. Her Majesty Katalin believes that the top priority now is to reorganize the army. As for your ascension to the throne, who cares? Just promote Crazy Ivan under your command to general.
It’s time to congratulate you.”
"Very good, this is very Kislev." Ryan smiled when he heard this. Indeed, Britannia is far away from Kislev, and the two sides have never had much contact. Maybe there are expedition knights who have arrived in Kislev, or maybe
Occasionally, Brittania would give Kislev some help, but the attitude of this kingdom in the ice and snow has always been clear - Katalin, who is ungrateful and has a cold personality, does not even appreciate the empire.
Everyone continued to visit the palace, and everyone came to the parliament hall. The magnificent parliament hall is where the kingdom's knights meeting is held. When the whole of Britannia is in crisis, or the dukes are unable to make a decision on the current predicament, then
Or if the king has a major decision and needs to listen to the opinions of the whole kingdom, then the Kingdom Knights Conference will be held here. Representatives of the big nobles and small nobles of the entire country will gather here to hold a conference and finally vote to decide whether the bill is passed.
Of course, the Kingdom's Knights Conference has not been held for more than thirty years. The last time it was held was when Richard had just succeeded to the throne. Because John II suffered a huge failure in the expedition to the bad land, Richard discovered the cloth after he took the throne.
The number of knights in Retania had seriously declined. At that time, he convened a knights meeting in the kingdom and proposed a resolution to stop the chivalry war for at least fifteen years, which was finally passed.
All the seats in the parliament hall are red. The upper four walls of the hall are decorated with stained glass and six murals that reflect religious implications, knightly style and legal significance. The southern end of the hall is a golden throne and canopy, and two thrones.
These are where the King and the Witch of the Lake sit respectively, but the Witch of the Lake generally does not attend the parliament, and even if she does attend the majority, she only attends the opening ceremony.
"You will be crowned here." Before Emperor Karl-Franz pointed to the throne, he smiled heartily, showing his eight teeth: "Tell me, Ryan, where will we sit then?"
"You will sit in the stands on the right, and our nobles will sit in the stands on the left." Ryan pointed to the stands above the parliament hall: "As for other guests, some will be arranged on it, and some
Will be arranged outside."
"Can I see the Lady of the Lake then?" The emperor still had questions to ask.
"If nothing else happens, you will." Ryan spread his hands, and he suddenly became interested: "Everyone, I have always wanted to do this, can you all cooperate with me?"
"Why do you want us to cooperate with you? Ryan?" Boris Todbringer stared at his one eye.
"Come on, come on." Ryan quickly walked to the position in front of the throne, which is where the crown prince or the kingdom's regent should sit.
I saw Ryan walking to his seat, picking up the delicate little hammer on the table, tapping it gently on the table, and uttered one word with a serious face:
“orderrrrr!!!”
"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!" All the imperial nobles and Brittanian nobles burst into laughter. They seemed to have returned to the quarrels in various countries, principalities, and provincial councils. As lords or participants, they
The discussants kept shouting for silence. At this moment, everyone from the emperor to the accompanying attendants couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud.
"Nooooo!!!" The nobles below all booed together, and even the most serious Elector Boris and Hubbard, Duke of Carcassonne couldn't help but laugh.
“orrrder↗↗↗”
…………I am the solemn dividing line…………
That afternoon, while Ryan and others were visiting the Curona Lion Ring Racecourse, another group of guests arrived at Curona. They were transporting a large amount of goods, passing through the sea gate to Le-Angoulan and then here.
The Border Prince, the Black Prince Blackheart Lepp, and Durant, another Border Prince who formed an alliance with him, also led their cronies to Kurona. Along with them, the World Eater gene Primarch An appeared with them.
Grand, and the Sanctuary mercenary Brenner who went on an adventure with him and was invited to come this time.
The coronation ceremony is getting closer and closer.
