Aalto, the city of chants, La Tasha Palace.
After listening to the news conveyed by the new Cardinal Filibel of the Diocese of Vaorit, Natasha could not hide her sadness: "I didn't expect that my grandfather and uncle would be called by the Lord one after another. ” Although she knew that King Feltis was old and frail, Prince Patrick was frail and sickly, and Natasha was ready to hear the bad news in recent years, but this kind of thing, no matter how mentally prepared, she couldn't control the grief that surged into her heart.
"Patrick still hasn't been able to take the throne."
Grand Duke Vaorit, who knew more about the Hoffenberg royal family than Natasha, sighed softly, but didn't say anything, but looked at Natasha in a white court dress lovingly, "Would you like to go to Rentat to inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Holm" Natasha thought of Hathaway, thought of Lucian, then looked at her father, who was obviously old in front of her, looked at his purple and silver hair, and shook her head resolutely: "There are still many heirs in the Kingdom of Holm, and you only have me." ” "I was taught since I was a child that I had the responsibility of the Violet family, the responsibility of the Duchy of Vaorit, how could I leave here" Grand Duke Vaorit patted Natasha's shoulder comfortingly, looked at his daughter, who was already a little taller than himself, and smiled slightly: "If I say, I want you to go" Ah, Natasha was stunned.
The bearded Philippel followed and said kindly: "It's not that you can't come back, although the church does not allow the Kingdom of Holm and the Duchy of Vaorit to merge, but you can concurrently serve and let different heirs inherit it in the future, so you can be in the Kingdom of Holm for one year, and the Duchy of Vaorit for one year, and the teleportation array is open to you, which is the church's reward for your and your family's piety for so many years." ” In this way, it is easy to control Natasha, and it is also convenient to guide the nobles to get used to "autonomy" and provoke contradictions between the royal power and ordinary nobles.
"And I'm still in good health, and I can be a Grand Duke for at least twenty years."
Archduke Vaorit said half-jokingly, "Your mother left her parents and brother, married Vaorit, and watched her father grow old year after year, and her brother was sick, and she inevitably blamed herself in her heart, and even when your grandmother died, she couldn't catch up with the last meeting, and she deeply regretted it, and felt that she owed a lot to the Hoffenberg family, so I hope that you can go when the Kingdom of Holm needs you to stabilize the internal situation the most, and make up for your mother's regrets." ” Natasha fell silent, her hands clenched into fists at some point, and finally nodded slowly: "Okay." ” Felipel said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Your Royal Highness Princess, the church knows that the type you like is different from ordinary girls, so it helped you push down the requirement that you have to get married, but the descendants can't help but stay, I believe that this is the ardent hope of the Grand Duke and the nobles of the two countries, when the time comes, you can consider directly letting the angel descend on you and give birth to the Holy Fetus, which is the glory that only piety and sincerity have." ” Salde blamed Lucien on what happened to Aalto, saying that Lucien used Her Royal Highness Princess Natasha to comfort the Grand Duke and used her, so the church understood that Natasha's surname had not changed, and the Grand Duke later knew more or less.
Natasha's thick eyelashes drooped to hide the change in mood, and she whispered, "I'll try." ” But she was thinking in her heart: "Is it true that Lucien said that he conceived without a surname, uh, the one that borrowed him directly" Now that he has determined his mind, Lucien has already made various plans, in order to prevent Natasha from being chased by himself, unable to bear the pressure, in order to give birth to an heir, he will find a random nobleman to marry, and often give her the surname "popular science" artificial insemination, IVF and other knowledge.
Getting Natasha's answer, Filipbel Ci said kindly: "We won't disturb Your Royal Highness the princess to say goodbye to the big announcement, in order to ensure your safety and convenience, it is best to choose a small knight group to follow, if there are not many of their families, they can also use the teleportation array together." ” Because of their different roles, the regular knights are composed of one hundred to five hundred knights at all levels, ten times as many knights and more soldiers, the medium-sized knights, that is, the family knights of the general nobles, are about thirty knights, and the proportion of knight attendants and soldiers is often very large, while the small knights are the guards of the crown prince and the heir of the principality, consisting of one heavenly knight, three great knights and six knights, one hundred attendants, and five hundred soldiers, But the small knightly order that Philippel spoke of clearly included only the knightly rank and their families.
After saying that, he said goodbye and left, and the Grand Duke smiled and said to Natasha: "Just now I said that I can still be the Grand Duke for twenty years, but you can't make me wait too long, I hope to see my grandson as soon as possible and see the future of the Violet family." ” "I'll try."
Natasha was thinking in her heart, Lucian, don't have a problem with your "technology".
The Grand Duke looked at Natasha with a smile and said, "I hope you go to the Kingdom of Holm, not only to make up for your mother's regrets, but also because he is there, you don't have to be separated in two places, so you have to hurry up about your grandson's affairs." ” "Father, what are you talking about, who is he" Natasha pretended to be dazed in embarrassment, why did Father still misunderstand this The Grand Duke laughed and said, "Who else can Lucian Evans."
Although you were a pretending couple a few years ago, my gut tells me that you are not fake now, and I'm happy, happy. ” Father, you think too much Natasha sneered, but the parting was imminent, and she couldn't bear to puncture his good feelings, and at the same time, she decided to use Lucian's blood to create a man.
"Don't think I don't know, who you have been communicating with for more than an hour a day for the past few years, and who is it who touches your communication earrings and giggles from time to time," Archduke Vaorit suddenly felt that his daughter was not as emotional as she claimed to be.
Natasha laughed dryly: "We are good friends, and I didn't want to hide it from you, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to know." ” "Alright, alright, go pick your little Knights, and Camille will follow you to Holm."
Grand Duke Vaorit decided to tell Camille to find an opportunity to "remind" Natasha.
Natasha nodded: "Okay, when I get to Holm, I will communicate with you often, father." ” She began to think in her heart: "Take John's family and surprise Lucien" Inside the Cathedral of Radiance, the teleportation array opened, and the holy light shone.
This teleportation array is used to provide reinforcements when the Magic Council is attacking with all its might, and it belongs to the largest category, which can teleport fifty knights at a time, and even with the financial resources of the Southern Church, it can only be deployed in five places, including the holy city of Reim, Antifleur, Aalto, Rentat, and Haim, the capital of the northern province of the Holy Heltz Empire.
In the milky white light, Natasha, Camille, nine knights, their wives, children, parents, and a total of more than forty people appeared inside, and Joel and other ordinary people looked dizzy and retching.
Among the nine knights, only the third-level knight John brought his parents and brother and other complete families, and the other knights felt that they could return to Aalto in a year, and there was no need to be so troublesome, but they just brought their wives and children.
"John, you can't leave your parents everywhere you go," another great knight, John's friend Finger joked.
After John got over the vertigo, he was busy taking care of Joel, Alyssa and Aven, and smiled when he heard this: "It's a rare opportunity to go to a foreign country, you should always bring your parents and brothers to see different scenery, and isn't it that Her Royal Highness the princess has told you that you must bring all your family members?"
"No, you heard me wrong," Finger said as he looked at Natasha in front of him, who was dressed in front of him.
At this time, the female officials from the Nexer Palace sprung up, trimmed Natasha's hair, eyebrows, and other parts, and at the same time draped her in a cloak embroidered with the Hoffenberg family crest in addition to the milky white armor, which was a fuchsia coat of arms wrapped in cloud-like stripes, and in the center was a sacred crown, flanked by a golden scepter and a blue sword.
"Your Royal Highness, Honorable Crown Prince, please take the Knights to the Palace of Nexer, and then ride back to the Radiant Cathedral along the marked route, where you will be crowned King."
Rex, the Speaker of the House of Nobles, saluted respectfully.
Natasha said majestically: "Please ask the Duke of Frenberg to lead the way." ” John and the other knights hurriedly settled their families, guarded Natasha straight and neatly, and left the Radiant Cathedral with her, and came to the Nexus Palace in the aristocratic quarter.
"Start" Rex, who led the way in front of him, waved his arm.
A knight raised his horn and blew it vigorously.
Woo At the sound of the trumpet, John and the other four knights took the lead in riding out, and then the heroic Natasha sat on her back and followed behind.
Woo The magic crystal lamps of the villas were turned on, and the street lamps were all lit up, one after another, like a sky full of stars welcoming the new king.
"This is" John and the others had never seen this kind of scene of the galaxy hanging upside down, and they were quite shocked for a while.
Woo Countless candles lit up in the ordinary houses on both sides of the street, and pairs of eyes worshipped their new lord through the windows and through the cracks in the doors.
Natasha was suddenly a little nervous, because the coronation ceremony required taking an oath under the light of the Holy Light, and whether her faith could pass the inspection She suddenly felt something in her heart, tilted her head slightly, and saw the black-haired man standing behind a certain window, his handsome face and the monocle that marked his surname were so familiar and kind.
As soon as she saw Lucien, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl, and her heart settled down, even the pursuit of the legendary powerhouse could be blocked, what else was she afraid of Is there no mercy in your heart, no loyalty, no bravery?
With her head held high, Natasha's stunning appearance and heroic demeanor impressed the nobles and citizens of the Kingdom of Holm very deeply.
Walking through the streets, Natasha and the guard of honor arrived at the Radiant Cathedral just as it was overcast, and the first rays of light in the morning shone on her.
Dismounting and stepping up the steps, Natasha calmly walked down the hall to the salute of the ordinary nobles on either side, and walked before Cardinal Salde.
Kneeling on one knee before the Holy Cross, and after some question-and-answer, Natasha stood facing all the nobles, her left hand pressed against the Holy Scripture, her right hand raised, and her three fingers pointed to the sky: "I, Natasha Vaorit, solemnly and reverently declare before the Lord:" "I am a devout believer in the Cult of God-of-Truth, and I will follow the holy scriptures and the laws of the Kingdom of Holm, defend them with my life, and fight for the glory of the Lord and the interests of the Kingdom of Holm until death" Salde stood in front of Natasha with a holy tome in his hand, and a soft light emanated from her body, checking her faith.
Natasha was in a peaceful state of mind, and in the light, she asked if she had violated her knightly vows, and when she received a negative answer, the light suddenly brightened, like an angel descending.
Salde smiled kindly, "You are a devout and steadfast believer, a brave and tenacious knight, and you are qualified to be the king of the Kingdom of Holm. ” He picked up the golden kingdom on the red velvet next to him and put it on Natasha's head, who was slightly buried: "I declare, by the grace of the Lord, that Natasha Vaorit has become Queen of the Kingdom of Holm and its territories and possessions, Protector of the Faith, Countess Violet, Lord of the Bilbis Islands, Lord of Sollaho and Baltimore, Grand Duchess of Emden, Lord of the Most Glorious Order of the Sword of Truth, Lord of the Most Glorious Order of the Knights of the Judgment, Lord of the Oldest and Most Exalted Order of the Holy Cross."
Natasha looked up on the crown set with many gems in front of her, symbolically taking the sacred and bright "Sword of Truth" and lifting it high with the help of divine magic, exuding a sharp luster.
Duke Rex, Duke Sorenfinh, Duke James, Duke Russell and other nobles all knelt on one knee: "See My King":
