"Your Highness."
When Oran walked up to his fourth daughter Mia, they exchanged simple greetings.
When Mia wanted to speak, she found that Oran had returned to Ella, and she felt a little disappointed.
Everyone loves beauty. Olan is good-looking and speaks politely, so she has a good impression of her.
But Mia soon forgot her loss and was sincerely happy for her sister Malm.
She hoped that her kind-hearted sister would be free from illness and disaster, and would no longer have to face the cold black walls on all sides.
As the center of sight, Oran's eyes began to look for Malm. Oran had not seen her until now, and he was vaguely wondering if there were any variables.
Today is the engagement ceremony and the canonization ceremony.
When the scheduled time came, Oran followed the servant boy and entered the Danbao Cathedral.
Most of the people watching the ceremony were asked to wait outside, except for the nobles who could come in to witness.
Oran walked down the red carpet, entering confidently, and then Ella, dressed in the king's formal attire and robe, walked up the steps, followed by the priest Konni.
The king's crown is very conspicuous and is inlaid with several kinds of gemstones.
I am more suitable than you. Olan fell in love with this crown at first sight, and he will receive one later.
At this time, there was a commotion outside, and an older priest followed Olan in.
Among the aristocratic crowd, those who had seen the old priest stood up and bowed their heads in salute. Even Ulf from the Oran faction opened his eyes wide, picked up the cross and worshiped him.
The person coming is none other than the "Archbishop of Kent"!
Among the Seven Kingdoms of England, there are three archbishops with special status.
The Archbishop of Wessex—because the kingdom is the strongest, he naturally controls the most British churches and clergy.
Archbishop of Mercia - Archbishop of England recognized by the Holy See.
The current seven kingdoms combined (including the Welsh region west of Mercia).
It is the place under the historical legal jurisdiction of the "Kingdom of England" once established by King Arthur.
Therefore, "England" is also used to collectively refer to the lords and people on these lands.
"Archbishop of England" means that the Holy See recognizes the person as the highest-ranking priest among the seven countries.
The Archbishop of Kent is the old man in front of him. He made three pilgrimages to Rome. He was an advisor to the previous pope and participated in the compilation of theological classics.
The status of these three archbishops is comparable to that of the Seven Kings. When the Archbishop of Kent arrived, after Ella introduced him, everyone, including Oran, paid him respect.
He came here at the invitation of King Ella to lead the wedding ceremony. As long as Oran reads out the contents of the marriage contract in front of everyone and makes an oath in front of the Archbishop of Kent, he will never be able to break it again unless he wants to become a "broken promise" By".
Ulf immediately approached Oran and whispered, "My lord, you have been fooled! If the oath succeeds, we will be very passive. If we do not fulfill our promises, we will become unpopular and untrustworthy. With so many betrothal gifts and troops sent to support the attack on Weihe... …No wonder Ella agreed so readily.”
"Breaker of faith" is a disparaging term second only to "doorbreaker" in church punishment.
Seeing how nervous Ulf was, Oran asked.
"You have read so many scriptures and been a steward for so many years. What will happen to those who break your promise?"
"You may be asked to claim it, then invade!"
"Whoever hits me, I will hit him."
"But if you report it to the church, you might be expelled and become a doorbreaker."
"Where is the church? Ulf, let me tell you, I have read all the 'seven books of theology' used by priests to teach scriptures. There are seven laws about breaking doors, and they do not include 'broken trust'. This is just the island's nobles and the Rules made up by the priests themselves.”
The Septuagint are seven theological works that, if you are familiar with them, you will be called a "learned priest".
Ulf knew that the lord had read as much books as he did, so he held back a few words and couldn't say anything.
Oran looked at Ella's proud face on the stage, patted Ulf beside him on the shoulder and said, "The weak abide by the agreement, and the strong overthrow the oath."
"Too risky, my lord!"
"I know you have an illegitimate child, Ulf."
Olan said something unexpectedly, and Ulf choked on his next sentence, and then there was a roar in his ears.
He heard Master Oran say, "I will become the king one day, and you will be my archbishop. At that time, the law of 'breaking the door and excommunicating' will be written by us."
Is there such a day?
Ulf's pupils tightened and his heart was in chaos.
…
On April 2, 865 AD, Dan Castle came under the jurisdiction of Northumbria County.
Oran slowly approached Ella.
He also slowly approached the cross and the priests on the steps.
The sun enters through the windows. When priests build churches or monasteries, they like to position the cross in the center of the hall to welcome the sun.
When light shines in, the cross emits a soft radiance. When paired with poetry or holy words, a sense of tranquility and piety fills the air.
Naturally, people believe that this is the power of God.
Aolan was not directly granted the title of county uncle, but had to proceed step by step, completing the first step first.
He wants to become a direct knight of Ella first.
Just like when Olan consecrated Kunsang and others as knights in his own territory, he deliberately changed their slogans and oaths to make them more loyal.
In her own court, Ella also created the knight canonization process of three questions and three answers.
Oran was taught by a palace servant sent by Ella in the middle of the night last night, and he mastered the process after practicing it only once.
…
"Comer?"
"Servant of God and His Majesty Ella, Oran Vijay."
"Your ambition?"
"Be loyal to His Majesty and clean up the evil."
"What orders should we abide by?"
"Govern the people with tolerance, treat the nobles with humility, fight against the enemy with courage, serve the lord with loyalty, and offer God with generosity. Only when you have these five good deeds in your heart can you be a knight."
After three questions and three answers, the priest gave Oran another family motto - "Sacrifice everything for the lord."
But Olan didn't intend to use this empty talk. He gave it to his subordinates to use.
"I will make you a knight of the royal court."
After the priest finished reading, Oran waited for three seconds before picking up the ordinary knight's sword that Ella rewarded, but there was no follow-up. Not to mention the land, Ella didn't get a single copper as a reward.
Then came the baronies, and so on.
…
"Comer."
"Knight of the Royal Court, Olan Vijay."
"Your ambition?"
"Assist Your Majesty, be fair and just."
"What orders should we abide by?"
"by……"
Among the seven virtues (goodness) of God, the nobles and the priests had different opinions. Ella set the standard of the seven virtues herself.
In this answer, Oranbi added one more sentence just now, "Treat women (gentlemen) with gentleness."
After tolerance, humility, courage, loyalty, and generosity, there is a sixth goodness - gentleness.
The baron is one level higher than the knight, so he is also good. This is Ella's idea.
"I make you the 'Baron of Durham' in County Durham." Connie, the priest, continued to read.
A barony with the same name as a county is represented as the capital of the county.
This time Olan received a silver ring. The ring can be used to stamp the sealing mud and finally be printed on the document, so it is also called the Ring of Power (Ring of Power).
Oran already has the ring of power, the ruby eagle ring in his hand.
But now Oran took away the eagle ring first, put on the silver ring, and kowtowed respectfully to the cross and Ella again.
Then he received a document governing the barony.
Then there is the legal title of county magistrate.
The title that Olan's father cherishes will be held by Olan today.
