"Your Highness, yesterday Princess Sylvia burned the gift that the Grand Duke of Feisabrun gave her, and the news of cutting off the relationship with the Feisabrunn family has spread throughout Bear City, the family knights, civil officials, and nobles in the territory Everyone is praising Her Royal Highness for her wise move, and now there is a lot of applause for her becoming the mistress of the family..." Fatty Shi, who came to see Lorist the next afternoon, was very impressed with Princess Sylvia's way of burning the gift yesterday. Full of praise.
Lorist didn't know whether to laugh or cry, this man really had all sorts of ideas when he opened his mind. Princess Sylvia acted out of anger yesterday. She was really heartbroken when she saw that the Grand Duke Fessabrun sent all the things she left in the family. When the gift was given to Lorist, all her belongings were swept away, and she was no longer considered to be a member of the Feisabrun family. Otherwise, knowing that November is the time for her and Lorist's big wedding, why not even a single member of the family came to attend
That's why Princess Sylvia felt so sad and wronged that she wanted to burn all the toys, clothes and daily necessities that accompanied her since she was a child. Anyway, if you don't recognize me, then I won't recognize you either. After they are all burnt out, there is no need to look at things and think about them. From now on, the Feisabrun family will have nothing to do with me.
Lorist had already been with Princess Sylvia for one night, and in this regard, he found that this girl was really simple-minded, just like a girl in her teens who hadn't grown up yet. But thinking about the environment in which Princess Sylvia grew up, it is understandable. She has lived under the protection of her godmother, the great swordsman Sandi, since she was a child, and was praised by others when she grew up. Just like this time when the Grand Duke Fessabrun sent her old things and the old servants who grew up with her, she simply thought that the Fessabrun family had really abandoned her, so she acted as if to vent her anger. There was an act of burning things.
Lorist, on the other hand, thought further because of his gloomy thoughts, and he was always wary of the Grand Duke Fessabrun, so he thought that the Princess Sylvia sent by the Grand Duke Fessabrun The things that have been used since childhood and the old servants do not mean that the Feisabrun family will abandon Princess Sylvia, on the contrary, they are reminding Princess Sylvia not to forget that she is from the Feisabrun family, These old things are sent here so that she will not forget the experience and years of growing up in the family. Otherwise, you only need to give away things and don’t need to give away people. On the one hand, these old servants are here so that Princess Silvia can have trusted servants in daily life, and on the other hand, there will be people who can send a letter back to the family in the future. Guarantee... As for not letting the members of the Feisabrun family come to the wedding to avoid suspicion, it is also because they are afraid that Lorist will be alerted.
However, the Grand Duke Fessabrun would never have expected that the usually smart Princess Sylvia would be so fragile and simple emotionally, and the result was just the opposite. At that time, Lorist's stomach ached from laughing, but he had to put on an expression of sadness and sharing weal and woe to comfort the silly girl. He believed that the Grand Duke Fesabrun would be stunned when he received the reports from the steward of Aricardo and the two messengers of Naples, deeply regretting that he had made a wrong decision. Hehe, old guy, you never thought there would be such a misunderstanding, right? It will be difficult to explain clearly in the future. A thorn in one's heart is pricked, but it is very difficult to pull it out to heal the wound easily.
What seemed simple to Lorist, is now being gossiped as Princess Sylvia burning down the gift from the Grand Duke Fessabrun for the righteousness of the Norton family, severing ties with the Fessabrunn family, and even As soon as this rumor spread, it won a lot of applause. No one is a fool, and everyone can draw conclusions from the fact that the Rock Legion is still stationed on the border between the Southern Province and the Eastern Wilderness Province, and the family has reorganized and expanded the Chasseur Legion, even if it has signed a contract with the Feisabrun family. An armistice agreement was reached, but the Norton family still regards the Feisabrun family as imaginary enemies. Their precautions have not been relaxed, and they have even begun to prepare for the next war that has not yet broken out between the two families.
Of course, Lorist did not refute this statement, on the contrary, he was happy to see it succeed. It's just that he recruited Tager and ordered him to send someone to strictly guard the dozen or so old servants of the Feisabrun family, and never let them stay in the family territory and wait for an opportunity. It stands to reason that Princess Silvia has already rewarded them heavily, and even if they are expelled from the Feisabrun family, they can go to other places to live in peace. Under such circumstances, those who still decide to stay in Bear City or Northland are people with ulterior motives. It is impossible for Lorist to allow them to stay in Northland or Bear City to find a chance to meet Princess Sylvia again. When we meet, I'm afraid that the girl's heart will soften and let them stay by her side again, that will be a nail in the family.
After dismissing Tager, Lorist collapsed on the sofa tiredly. Last night Sylvia cried and couldn't sleep well, even with him, he couldn't sleep well, so he had to get up to see her from time to time: "Oh, tell me, today How many nobles do you want to meet?"
"No need, I have asked the guards to reject all those who want to visit His Highness today, you can take a day off today." Fatty Shi is still very considerate on this point.
"Very well, thank you." Lorist turned over on the sofa, ready to find a more comfortable position for himself to sleep soundly: "Then I will leave the rest to you. By the way, In seven days it will be the big wedding day, has everything been arranged?"
"Don't worry, everything is ready. But after His Highness gets married, is he going to live here or go out for a stroll?" Fatty Shi asked.
Although the Galintia continent does not have the custom of honeymoon after marriage like Lorist's previous life, the tradition of nobles is to go out for a walk after getting married, usually in the family territory, and some go to places with good scenery to play. long or short. There was once a king in history who traveled abroad with his wife for more than three years after getting married, and traveled almost all the countries in the mainland. When he returned home, he had children. It was recorded as the longest post-marital trip in history.
"Well, I'm going to live in Sakura Ridge Manor, not in the city." Lorist said, "Winter will soon be here, and I won't be bothered to go out. I'll be living in Sakura Ridge Manor. I'll take my family home in April or May next year." Livia went to visit the family territory, and went to condolences and inspect the family's various armed legions and local defenses. Anyway, we won't make any big moves next year, just stabilize the territory and rest the family's armed forces. Administrative affairs are all in your charge."
Fatty Shi nodded: "That's fine, I know what to do, you can rest."
The wedding between Lorist and Princess Sylvia cost 1.37 million Goldfords, which was called the most expensive wedding in a century by the nobles. In fact, the cost of the wedding is only more than 100,000 yuan, mainly because the cost of gifts is the biggest expense. In order to achieve the purpose of celebrating in the whole territory, each resident will receive a celebration gift including a small silver coin, a catty of meat and a catty of ale for men, and a set of exquisite tableware or silver coins for women. daily necessities. The soldiers who served in the family's armed forces were rewarded with wine, meat and a large silver coin.
This gift alone cost nearly 800,000 goldfords. Director Speer is not stingy this time. One is that the Jinling Gold Mine has been put into formal operation and mining, and it is estimated that it will increase the family's income by 2 million next year. The second is to sign an armistice agreement with the Fesabrun family, and sell a large amount of goods to make the family a windfall, so they are full of confidence.
And Lorist said that the family has been busy fighting against the Principality of Madras and the Kingdom of Iberia in the past three years, which has affected the commodity transactions of the production workshops in the family territory to a certain extent, and the warehouses are full of goods that cannot be sold. The economy is a bit sluggish. Sending out these goods as gifts will not only clear the warehouses so that these production workshops will resume production next year to stimulate economic growth, it will also enable those who have received the gifts to get used to using these exquisite daily necessities that are expensive to them. Money can be spent later instead of buried in the ground.
Director Speer thinks what Lorist said is very reasonable. Just like the wine and meat given to the people this time, the family used standard weapons to exchange nearly one million cattle and sheep from the Fisabrun family a few years ago. Turn the western part of the Northland into pastures. Originally, it was thought that there would be a huge demand for beef and mutton among the family's leaders, but it turned out that apart from the bulk of the family's armed purchases, the people's usual food was very frugal, and they only bought a little beef a month. Lamb tastes fresh. People who are used to suffering are like this, and they like to save money and hide it well for emergencies. Then the cattle and sheep in the western pastures multiplied rapidly, and the pastures were almost insufficient. I have to kill a batch every year to make it into a convenient storage collection for what to do with bacon.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of this wedding to distribute celebratory gifts to each citizen, the Norton family conducted a very detailed census of the residents of the Northland, narrowing the error of the number of residents to within two digits. The results of the census found that the number of citizens in the Northland had reached 1.67 million, returning to the total population of the Northland in the heyday of the former Krissen Empire. That's a terrific number. Although most of the current citizens are immigrants, it can also be calculated how much damage the seven-year imperial civil war and the chaotic war between the nobles of the Northland during the time of Grand Duke Lukins brought to the Northland.
There was nothing to say about the wedding process, it was nothing more than the whole city being decorated with lights and festoons, and there was a sea of wine and meat. Although there were not many official residents in Bear City, the whole city was still crowded with qualified people from the whole Northland to watch the ceremony. First, Lorist and Princess Sylvia took a gorgeous carriage around the city, and then held a large-scale grand buffet banquet and ball in the central castle to entertain all the nobles and their families. Until the silver moon rose at night, Lorist and Princess Sylvia appeared on a temporary high platform, bathed in the silver moonlight, and under the witness of all the noble guests, she swore to the silver moon in the sky to respect each other, love each other, and be of one heart and one mind. , exchanged rings, and finally an invited bishop of the Temple of War God announced that they were legally married under the witness of the God of War and the Goddess of Silver Moon...
This is the most traditional model of aristocratic weddings in the Galintia continent. Anyway, it left Lorist with the feeling that it was the same as the weddings in his previous life. They were all routines, and the bride and groom were at the mercy of others. In his previous life, Lorist took over his father's small handicraft factory after returning home from the army, and worked hard to bring the small factory back to life. When the factory was in good condition, he realized that he was over thirty, so relatives from all walks of life, second eldest aunts and third aunts, etc. took turns to introduce objects to him, and at most eight kisses a month.
At the beginning, he was full of longing, hoping to find a like-minded partner, but he soon became tired. Girls living at the turn of the century are very realistic, and the most important thing to pay attention to during the blind date is the garage and savings. In the end, he didn't care anymore, and he was not picky when he went on a blind date with his wife who later became him. After dating for more than two months, he lived together, and got married when his belly grew bigger. Life after marriage can only be said to be dull, and there is no common language between husband and wife. It doesn't matter if the wife is not a virgin, after all, few of those who have been in college for a long time have completed their careers, and Lorist is not too demanding, and the receiver also recognizes it.
The problem is that his and his wife's views are always opposite. Although he does not have a high degree of education, he has finally served the country as a soldier and made meritorious service. But this period of time that made him proud is in the eyes of his wife. What a fool would do, thinking he wasted his youth and best years. If he didn't serve as a soldier and study hard, he might be able to develop his small factory into a large company, issue shares and earn a lot of money to immigrate abroad.
That quarrel happened in front of a comrade in arms who came to visit him. He was so angry that he hit a woman for the first time and gave his wife a slap in the face. After that, there was a cold war for more than half a year, and the two sides did not say a word. In other words, if it weren't for the reluctance of the daughter to not want the child to be hurt, the two would have divorced long ago. As a result of the husband and wife sleeping in separate beds, he hugged his newly recruited secretary to the bed. Anyway, his newly married secretary, who is ten years younger than him, is very relaxed and doesn't mind helping him resolve the relationship between men. Urgent, besides, the relationship between her and her husband is not very harmonious...
All the impressions of the previous life gradually disappeared in Lorist's mind, and now that he has integrated into this new world called Galintia, sometimes he feels that everything in the previous life is just a dream, not his personal experience. He is the head of the Norton family, Grand Duke of the Northland, and Duke of the Kingdom of Antinac. He has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers under his command, and he is invincible with a single command. Now there is such a beautiful elf-like girl as his wife, just like what those netizens said in the previous life, at this moment he is at the peak of his life...
After the wedding ceremony, Princess Sylvia took Lorist's arm and strolled through the noisy and festive venue, receiving congratulations and blessings from the Norton family knights, civil officials and noble guests. The beautiful face is filled with a happy smile, making it even more gorgeous and radiant.
When the clock struck midnight, Lorist accompanied Princess Sylvia back to their new house. Compared with Lorist, who was impatient to deal with those nobles and was a little depressed, Princess Sylvia was in a state of anxiety. This was the most important night of her life, and she would give her most precious innocence to herself. lover.
After returning to the new house, in order to conceal her inner excitement, uneasiness and fear, Princess Sylvia began to find troubles for nothing. She cooked Mycos for Lorist, cleaned the table, and made the bed. He was covered in sweat, so he asked two maids to bring him hot water to take a bath. During the bath, he was afraid of Lorist coming in but also hoped that Lorist would come in, feeling extremely conflicted...
Lorist didn't think as much as Princess Sylvia, did he still want to run away with the meat in his mouth? no way. So he also let Princess Sylvia toss. In addition, he felt very tired and tired. Dealing with those nobles during this time is really tiring. It’s like wearing a fake mask, speaking insincere words with a hypocritical smile, and pretending to listen attentively. It's so embarrassing and exhausting. Sometimes Lorist felt that it would be easier to face the siege of ten third-level great sword masters than to deal with these nobles.
Thinking that he would have to deal with these nobles in the future, Lorist felt his scalp tingle. Nothing is simple, and the same is true for the nobles. These nobles went around talking for a long time before tactfully taking the side. Lorist shook his head in self-deprecating manner. His status is high and others are cautious when speaking. He is afraid that his expression will not anger him. Why bother, it is not easy for everyone. ah. I'm so tired, go to bed and lie down for a while...
So when Sylvia came out of the shower with disappointment, what she saw was Lorist lying on the bed and sleeping soundly... Princess Sylvia suddenly became angry, bastard, this is the most important person in my life At night, what the hell are you just sleeping like this
Princess Sylvia didn't care that the bath towel covering Miaoman's body fell to the floor, she threw herself on the bed naked, showing her tiny silver teeth, and bit Lorist's shoulder fiercely...
ouch...
