Macho Wars

By the way, this group of people are surnamed Barano, and the entire family itself has a very large power, and there are two pillars, the god Howard and the queen Susan, so they are backed by Fu Yin, and they are all mixed up. The high position.

Just like this Levins Barano, he is the third son of the old duke, only five years younger than Howard, but he has been a stubborn character since he was a child. He grew up even more ignorant, only ten. At the age of four or five, he followed a bunch of gangsters and dogs to linger in various places and places, and he was like a dude, and he was far from Howard!

But it is such a sloppy bastard, but relying on the connections and flexible communication skills that he laid down when he spent time and drink, he was struck by the turmoil of the imperial capital politics.A few years ago, he replaced Howard, who had a military position, and entered the Imperial Senate, where he took a seat belonging to the Barano family.

Since she had not had a good impression since she was a child, Susan hated this third brother who was very disgusting with a smile.But at the same time, she also knew that this sinister and cunning fellow had always been in the Senate for her son and had attracted many allies.

Because the Senate, which represents the noble class, for their own interests, many people do not hope that the empire will have another monarch as strong and authoritative as Sidney XIV in the future.

Chapter 402 The Elegy at the Wedding (1)

Throughout the centuries of history of the empire, the period when the Sidney royal family was truly able to achieve centralization was actually the 50 or 60 years since the rise of the modern guidance revolution.Beginning with Sidney XIII, who reused the university scholar Stallone, he entered a stable heyday with his son Sidney XIV.

During this period, the Sidney Empire, with its national strength and rapid technological advancement, is undoubtedly the leader of the entire world civilization and the "beacon" worshipped by people at home and abroad.

But the nobles in the empire were totally unhappy, because they discovered with horror that the old ruling framework was gradually being replaced by the new system. The central government gradually took back the rights of the nobles, paving the way for the future "Imperial Power to the Country". .

Therefore, the Senate has always been worried that if the future Sidney XV enthroned in the same policy as the current emperor, then how long their Senate will continue to exist, I am afraid it is unknown!

Fortunately, although the Senate has been slashed, one of its rights is still in effect today, and that is the senator review system in the "Law of Succession to the Throne".

According to this bill made by the founding emperor himself, every monarch of the empire has the right to choose a prince on his own without going through the Senate, but if the prince wants to be enthroned, he must get all 513 seats in the Senate, more than half. The consent of the noble elders.

The reason why the founding emperor did this at the beginning was mainly because he was afraid that the future emperor might have a hot mind, and he chose his successor based on his personal preference, so that a faint prince who was difficult to convince the crowd would become a superior.

But his old man never expected that, hundreds of years later, the Senate would use the rights he gave him to do the opposite!

On the other side of the palace at this time, Sidney XIV was being served by the waiter, wearing his gorgeous grand marshal's gown.Looking at the old but majestic self in the waiting mirror, the old emperor smiled very satisfied, and then asked the palace chief who was standing behind him without looking back.

"Are all the guests here?"

"Back to your Majesty, everything that can be reached has already arrived."

"What about my bride?"

"Already prepared, but... Your Royal Highness will have to wait for a while."

"Huh! Dolly."

Hearing the manager's answer, the old emperor frowned slightly, and the queen's attitude made it clear that he was shaking his face.In order to alleviate the embarrassment, the boss took out a book of "Royal Ceremony", turned to the part of the middle wedding, and read a series of contents for the old emperor.

According to the ancient tradition of the Sidney royal family, the entire wedding process is divided into four steps, and the queen must be present throughout.

In the first step, the husband and wife both step into the hall, and one or more respected elderly people will be responsible for the witnesses. Both parties should jointly read the marriage vows in front of the witnesses, and then cross arms to kiss each other's rings.

In the second step, the newlyweds and the queen exchange handkerchiefs and drink a glass of wine together, which means that the two parties have signed the oath of sisters.

The third step is to accept gifts and blessings from the guests present.

The fourth step, the wedding banquet opens, everyone eat and drink as much as possible.

This set of marriage procedures, Sidney XIV has gone through no less than two hundred times in his life, and he is so proficient that he can complete it with his eyes closed, so he interrupted the other person impatiently before he finished reading it.

"Alright, alright! I have listened to these things for decades, and I can almost memorize them, so you don't need to bother to read them again. Is there anything more important?"

"Your Majesty, it's time to drink medicine."

"..."

Looking at the small medicine bottle that the chief executive handed over, the old emperor squirmed his throat subconsciously, recalling some terrible taste.

"This... wait until the wedding is over."

"Your Majesty, the doctor said..."

"Are you listening to me or to the royal doctor!"

"Uh... alright!"

Seeing that the old emperor had blown his beard and stared at him, the general manager who had served him for most of his life immediately retired. In this state, the emperor would not allow anyone to disobey him.

Finally, I checked his dress and confirmed that everything was perfect. Surrounded by the waiters, he walked towards the wedding hall in a stride, and from a distance, he saw Karen in a gorgeous wedding dress waiting. The entrance of the main hall.

Seeing the arrival of the old emperor, Karen raised her skirt and saluted.Sidney XIV examined his new wife up and down, with a satisfied smile on his face, and then gently took Karen's hand.

At this time, the general manager who was next to the old emperor asked.

"Your Majesty, the hall is ready, do you start now?"

"Let's start! Don't make the guests wait in a hurry."

Accompanied by the high-pitched and cheerful royal march, the door of the main hall of the palace slowly opened, and the guests who were still talking in a low voice instantly calmed down. At this moment, all their eyes were gathered on Sidney XIV and Card who were holding hands. Lotus body.

Under the gaze of hundreds of pairs of eyes, the old emperor walked into the hall holding Karen's hand, and everyone bowed their heads to pay respect.

When Sidney XIV passed the front row, he saw his youngest son Andy.The little prince is the only royal heir present at the wedding today, after all, he is a minor.

Because of his old age, Sidney XIV has always loved this little son. He is very precious.

But the old emperor also understood that the child was born too late, so in order to protect him in the future, the old emperor deliberately kept him away from "Royal Education".Seeing that the little guy likes painting very much, he specifically asked the court painter to be his teacher and let him do what he liked.

Although the old emperor's actions made the queen very unhappy, he gained the respect and love of his son, and the relationship between father and son was very good.

Soon, the old emperor and Karen slowly came to the center of the main hall. The witness was Prince Revo of the Empire, the only uncle of Sidney XIV who was ninety-nine years old this year.The Queen Susan was standing by, still stern, holding a small golden handkerchief in her hand.

Some guests noticed this scene before, and murmured secretly, saying that watching the posture of the queen, if not for the crowd in the hall, the handkerchief might have been bitten in the mouth.

Fortunately, although the queen put on a stinky face throughout the whole process, at least there was no real trouble. The wedding process went smoothly.

The two successfully read the pledge of loyalty, put on wedding rings for each other, and then entangled their wrists under everyone's gaze, and kissed each other's ring on each other's ring finger.

At this point, the most important step of the wedding has been completed, and Sidney XIV and Kallen are officially married.

The moment the ceremony was completed, a tear slipped quietly down Karen's beautiful cheeks. When the guests saw Karen's face smiling, they thought it was tears of joy.Applauded one after another.

Chapter 403 Elegy at the Wedding (2)

Amidst countless applause and blessings, the wedding of Karen and the old emperor was officially completed, and the guests who were present moved to the banquet hall, where a very rich and luxurious wine and delicacies were already prepared.

Because the wedding dress was too huge, Karen had to temporarily go back to remove her makeup and change into a lighter dress, while Queen Susan used to excuse her body to feel unwell and she wanted to go back to the harem to rest.

The old emperor knew that it was not her body that was uncomfortable, and he didn't bother to care about this woman who was in menopause.

Everyone came to the banquet hall. As soon as the old emperor came up, he first took a glass of refreshing sweet fruit wine from the waiter's tray, and then drank it, feeling that he was much more comfortable.

Because the main hall of the palace where the wedding is held is too hot. Although the place looks very solemn, it actually has serious ventilation problems, so as long as there are many people, it will become very stuffy.

After a cup of sweet fruit wine with a low alcohol content, the imperial nobles and envoys from various countries stepped forward to toast and congratulate the old emperor.Seeing this, the attendants and the general manager who had been with Sidney XIV had all tried to stop them, but the old emperor stunned them back.
