For this ceremony, the crown prince's men took great pains to find various performance groups.

The church hall is solemnly and gorgeously decorated.

The nobles donated all kinds of gauze, carpets, wool, etc. they had on hand.

Thousands of candles are placed inside and outside the church.

Even if the ceremony takes place at night, it can still be bright enough for guests to see everything clearly.

The first row of guests closest to the bishop's altar is a symbol of power.

Oran was among them, and the Cornish woman he had just seduced was not of sufficient status, so he could only watch from the outside in the third row.

The king was still putting on makeup, and the guests were whispering among themselves.

The throne in front of him hung high, covered with plush with the flying snake family pattern.

From the Viking invasion two years ago to the present, Wessex has captured a large number of weapons and swords belonging to Viking chiefs.

Now it finally comes in handy.

Since it was still wartime, the situation was special, and the newly joined Viking allies and Oran were here, so the crown prince did not dare to take it lightly.

Finally unified, each force sent out several defenders, armed with weapons and long cross ropes wrapped around them. They could not be pulled out unless there was chaos, for the purpose of protecting the environment.

The blacksmiths picked out seven Viking swords with provenances, put the scabbards on them, and held them in the hands of the newly joined Viking warriors, ready to be presented as gifts later.

When Alfred briefly appeared, dragging his robes, everyone bowed down to show their respect.

In order to gather supplies for this ceremony, the crown prince's men risked his life and spent all the money recovered from Winchester.

The crown prince is supported by the nobles in front of him, and the common people are suffering. This is the consensus of 90% of the people.

At the end of the ceremony, the leftovers given to the people are the best kind of benevolent kingship.

A row of monks in robes communicated with the Roman monks, using Latin, Greek and other blessings.

Hold the Bible and use the Word of Heavenly Father to protect this country.

And read out the glories of the past kings one by one.

The musicians clap the instruments in their hands, making the gentle sounds grand.

The crown prince was extremely proud, with a decisive look in his eyes. He had finally ascended to the highest position of power in the country.

Finally I can let go and do many things.

Flowers and ribbons were in the hands of many ladies, waving towards the crown prince.

Then the monk took out two treasures, one was the "Holy Grail".

It is rumored that this was used by the Lord Christ.

It spread from Jerusalem to Italy, and later stayed in England with the Roman legionary expedition.

It is considered to be full of God's blessings and authority.

After the king ascends the throne, it will be kept by the most trusted palace monks.

Oran saw this cup for the first time.

There are precious stones on the golden surface.

It was then handed to the crown prince by Roman monks.

The crown prince took it respectfully and began to perform with a solemn expression, which made people feel that he was being guided by God.

Then another important thing, a crown.

This top is remade.

The monks placed it on the king's head and then covered him with the wind.

Mark the birth of a new king.

In order to highlight the specialness of the new king's accession to the throne, and to become an unprecedented presence in the history books of British England for future generations.

The crown prince's men continued the performance, placing the white doves they had caught around the church, and releasing them from the secret compartment as the big bell struck.

It is recorded in the Bible that the noble ones will cause the sacred birds to sing together.

Then Axel gave Aku a look, and the two sang together.

Say a self-made phrase in local English.

"The king is dead!" Axel almost shouted, even the top hat on his head was tilted.

This sentence sends the noble to the cemetery and makes people stop having illusions.

"Long live the king!" Aku led the knights, delivered seven Viking swords to the new king, and knelt down on one knee.

A sword symbolizes a country.

The Crown Prince's camp is tantamount to hinting who is the guardian of the Seven Kingdoms.

As the strongest knight under the crown prince, Aku has found his goal again.

After this ceremony, he will have a new family martial name.

He could give up his hatred as the Vikings left the land.

But he firmly believes that one day the crown prince will wipe out all the sins of the "North", no matter how big or small.

The sky has no need for such a creature as an eagle.

They only bully birds that are weaker than themselves, don't they?

In every era, there will be people who are willing to be used, who are self-righteous, or who are dissatisfied with the transition between the old and new eras.

This ceremony finally gave away the last extravagance of the former king's men.

The throne changes hands, and the land they lost to the Vikings will be hard to get back.

Even if it is taken back, it will be cut into pieces and become a means for the crown prince to reward his own people.

Oran's attention has shifted to the faces of the nobles with angry expressions.

In the future, these people will be the heroes of the country who will go out of their way to stand upright and help Britain!

"Long live King Alfred!"

"God bless England!"

"I will govern this country with justice. I will put eggs and milk on the table of every Englishman, so that their safety is guaranteed. I will give everything."

The people who could not enter the arena, but heard the sound, knelt down in the direction of the new king.

Often, people will forget what you promised to do, but care about what you can say now.

The noisy drumming annoyed Oran.

But justice will eventually triumph over evil.

Oran looked at the paintings on the church and felt the same way.

So, Olan took a few steps forward, in full view of everyone.

He stretched out his hands and shouted to the crowd, "Alfred is not a king...but an emperor!"

Gusrum also stepped forward and bowed to the crown prince, and was named the Lord of the "Principality" by him.

It's just that the "scope" of this principality has not yet been determined.

changes with status.

No one can stay rational and sober forever.

Alfred always had a dull face, but today he was always smiling.

Seeing that the crown prince was drifting away, the queen who had spiritual communication with Oran Plato was also ready to come forward and plead with the crown prince later.

But the knight she brought took on this responsibility and stood up.

It was inappropriate to tell what we knew, that although the "Noble One" was dead, his son had appeared in Cornwall, hoping that the new king would send troops.

How can such a thing be brought up openly?

But with so many eyes watching, the crown prince's subordinates were not in a position to object and just said they would discuss it later.

As a result, the knight began to write a big book, mixing gossip and some truths into eight falsehoods and two truths.

"Your Majesty, please support my team. I will send the prince back safely and swear an oath with my life."

The knight was completely out of control, and the queen began to be afraid. He only mentioned a few words to the knight.

She was afraid and wanted to exit the church hall, but was surrounded by Oran's people.

The man who had been flirting with him in the morning was now such a stranger to him.

The knight failed in his performance (as expected) and was questioned in turn. In the end, his flaws were exposed. He could only say that he had heard the queen say this and wanted to share the Lord's worries.

And how did the Queen know?

But when flirting with Olan, Olan deliberately got drunk and put several forged letters beside him for the woman to see.

It contains the Crusaders' plan to conquer Cornwall, as well as the search for the crown prince, a large reward of land, and even the title of county and principality.

Oran thought that the crown prince would not give up the news of finding his brother and nephew.

Rather than letting all kinds of information spread randomly, it would be better to create a fake farce at his enthronement ceremony so that people in the future would never dare to submit information again.

He would also send people to add fuel to the fire, making the former king's subordinates and the people think that the crown prince did not want to see another contender for the throne.

In this way, he has a greater chance of finding them and waiting for the right time to take action against the crown prince.

Today was not the day to see blood. The knight was expelled from the field, and even the queen was too embarrassed to explain.

After leaving, she discovered that the knight had run away!

Oran took him in and allowed him to return to King's Landing secretly.

The queen who stayed behind was humiliated by Oran when she tentatively questioned him.

"You dare to peek into my letter, do you know it's confidential?"

"Your Mightiness!"

"You chill me so much. I originally wanted to take you back, but for your own selfish desires, you almost caused a rift between me and the new king. Originally, the king wanted to deal with you, but I protected you, you know."

The so-called queen was just a high-class refugee who came to seek help with her tattered belongings and luggage stacked in two carriages.

Her kingdom has been eaten away. As a queen, once her subjects think she cannot protect themselves, her subordinates will divide her kingdom faster than other kingdoms controlled by men.

"I can give you everything, Your Excellency." The woman pleaded with Oran.

But is there any difference between being a woman with no political interests and sleeping with a pig?

The "weak claims" of a dozen villages in a woman's hands are of little use.

She was used as a gunman by herself again, leaving her with a bad reputation. Besides, she had never slept with her, so we should get together and part ways.

Just give her some money and drive her away.

Her figure and the servant disappeared into the night, and her name never appeared again in history.

Most people can only come into this world in obscurity, and then die miserably.
