Chapter 169 Coronation Ceremony

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Although Miss Rabbit lost a ransom, luckily it didn't take long for her fortune to turn around again and she received a huge sum of money worth ten thousand gold lions.

This money was personally sent by the second prince Claudio. When he met the female lord for the first time, he had promised that as long as Yin Leiya helped him kill the Earth Bear in the competition, he would only seek revenge.

You can get this bounty and his friendship.

Now Claudio has fulfilled this promise.

This also made Miss Rabbit's impression of him significantly improve. It can be said that Claudio is now the most pleasing noble to the female lord in the royal capital.

But Claudio did not leave immediately after sending the money. He first congratulated the female lord on becoming the champion, and then chatted with the girl about the new fief she was about to get.

"Crab Point is the largest seaport in the empire. The last time I went there was three years ago. It was a very lively town, not under Lionheart Castle.

"Hundreds of ships come in and out of the port every day, bringing spices, silks, dyes and other random knick-knacks, and then taking away our ores, wine, leather, grains and gold.

"Although other seaports can also carry out similar trade, the amount and scale are far less than Crab Point. It must be admitted that the Wetting family runs it very well.

"But they are no longer here... Crab Point is now under the temporary control of the Drummond family. They were originally vassals of the Wetting family, but now they are definitely not satisfied with being loyal to other families. You want to completely control Crab Point and

It's not easy." Claudio commented.

Miss Rabbit smiled bitterly, "I am self-aware and have never expected to be able to control the crab corners. In fact, I hope that your majesty can change the place for the prize. As long as it is closer to the green field, it doesn't matter even if it is barren."

Claudio was noncommittal, "His Majesty is no longer here, and even if he is still alive, he rarely changes his mind on things he has decided. He has always been a very stubborn person."

"Maybe I should discuss this matter with Prince Gars," the female lord said, "after he is crowned."

"My brother... he will indeed be interested in crab horns." Claudio said, "But he has just taken that position, and he still needs the nobles of the royal capital, especially the big families, to support him.

"So even if he has thoughts about Crab Corner, he won't show them at this time."

"Then do you have any good suggestions?" Yin Leya is now thinking about how to sell this new fiefdom that she got by accident at a good price.

Anyway, she couldn't really get the largest seaport in the empire, so she might as well exchange it for something real.

Whether it's land or money, we can talk about it.

Miss Rabbit has always believed that only what you eat is real.

Although the bonus of 30,000 gold coins is already quite a lot, it would certainly be better if we could earn more.

However, Claudio said, "I suggest you wait, even if you really don't want crab horns, there are many people who want crab horns.

"Since His Majesty has entrusted it to you, you are the master of that city. There is no need to rush. You can just wait for others to give you a price."

"Well, what you said makes sense."

Having said that, Yin Leya felt somewhat disapproving of it.

Another very important reason why she was so anxious to sell the crab horns was that the Wing Clan with wings on their backs were coming.

Crab Corner might become a frontline by then, but she could only think about this reason in her mind and could not say it out loud.

But there was no point in worrying about it. After sending Claudio away, Miss Rabbit was completely free and had a good time in the capital for two days.

Then she received an invitation, which was issued by the royal family, asking her to go to the King's Landing Tower tomorrow morning to observe the coronation ceremony of Garth.

In fact, with Yin Leya's title and family background, she is not qualified to participate in the emperor's coronation ceremony. Even if she is just watching from the side, it is obvious that her status as the champion of the tournament and the dragon-slaying hero played a role.

Garth hoped that his coronation ceremony could be praised by future generations, so in order to add more legend, he brought in female lords to make up the number.

Li Yu returned to Bratis last night, and as Yin Leya's entourage, he was able to enter this magnificent palace.

Miss Rabbit did some research last night and learned that the emperor's coronation ceremony usually lasted nine days.

On the first day, Garth walked into the King's Landing Tower, climbed the stone steps and sat on the bone throne under the gaze of everyone.

Then the eldest living member of the Vespasian family will join the six imperial ministers to crown the new emperor and present the sword passed down from Alessandro the Raging Lion.

After this, the imperial ministers will hand over their brooches symbolizing power, which also means they resign from their positions.

Of course this is usually just symbolic, as Garth will then give them their brooches again.

Even if the new emperor wants to adjust the list of imperial ministers, it will usually take three to four months before replacing his cronies.

And considering the good relationship between Garth and the imperial ministers, most people think that the new emperor will not make large-scale personnel adjustments to the imperial council at least in the first few years after his coronation.

Afterwards, Gars will also accept the allegiance of eleven other noble families.

At this point... Garth has basically become the new emperor of the empire, and he will enjoy a luncheon with everyone who comes to watch.

And wait until early the next morning, others will return to the King's Landing Tower again. Under the leadership of the new emperor, they will hold a parade in the city and receive the cheers of their subjects.

There will be a state banquet in seven days, and the coronation ceremony will be completely over.

The process is almost like this. Of course, the coronation ceremony of each emperor will have some differences in details, but in general it is very similar.

Garth has been acting calm and collected these days, but this morning he couldn't hold back the excitement on his face.

Edward II was in his prime, and half-orcs lived relatively long lives. Logically speaking, Garth had little chance of becoming the emperor of the empire in the next hundred years.

But something unexpected happened and Edward II was suddenly poisoned to death, which also gave Garth an opportunity.

He could finally put aside the shadow that had been hanging over his head and officially became the master of this huge empire.

Before dawn, Garth woke up from bed and took a shower and changed clothes under the service of the maid.

He put on a gorgeous dress with golden brocade around it, then put on a crimson velvet silk robe and tied it with a silver belt.

Looking at the young and majestic face in the bronze mirror, Garth was very satisfied with his current appearance.
