Rhine felt that he had solved the major crisis of his sister's marriage and could leave with peace of mind. "Lewen" novel | Therefore, after sending Anthony away, he set off directly from Swan Castle to the Space Port.
The space port has been under martial law in advance. Rhine's ship is like a giant white kite, blocking out the sky and stopping in the center of the space port. Naturally, the vassals of the Rhine came to see him off early, trying their best to create a grand atmosphere of warm farewell.
However, all the hard work and effort was done to make the blind man look at her, and it was all in vain. Rhine's arrogance and willfulness were as usual. The airship entered the ship directly and did not even plan to show up for the last formal interview before departure. His vassals were all used to being ignored by him, so they weren't very sad. After lining up to see him off, they all swarmed around César César, who arrived later.
Cesare didn't have time to deal with these vassals one by one. The affairs had been handed over long ago. Rhine was in a hurry on the ship, so he only took out the new high priest of the Dark Temple who had taken up his post in the Holy See of Lighthouse Star and gave instructions. Said: "Lighthouse Star will be calm for a long time in the future. You must make good use of this calm situation. Your most important task at the moment is to fully cooperate with Lord Anthony to open up the situation and promote the restoration movement of Persis. It is cooperation, understand? , Great Priest, don’t make your own decisions, obey Sir Anthony’s arrangements for everything. You must always think about your predecessor.”
The high priest's name was Bobby. He came from a family of hereditary priests, but he was Rhine's own attendant. His predecessor was the unlucky former high priest Sittings who was beheaded with a sword. As a latecomer, High Priest Bobby learned the new by reviewing the past. He didn't need to do it all the time, but his heart was always awe-inspiring. So he said yes immediately and respectfully.
However, Cesare felt that the high priest's attitude was too timid and was not quite correct. So after thinking for a while, he encouraged the high priest and said: "You must always pay attention to the situation of Your Excellency Anthony. Don't follow him too blindly. If there is any situation, report it directly to me. Oh, there is a guard beside Your Excellency Anthony, his name is An Ning, and he is loyal. As a person like you, he probably won't show up in public, but he will contact you when necessary. Don't leak this matter to others, just know it in your mind."
"Work hard, High Priest Bol. His Excellency chose you from so many attendants under his command and placed you in such an important position as Cardinal of the Vatican. This is a sign of trust and recognition of your talents. You must preside over the Lighthouse Star for Your Excellency." The situation." Cizer nodded approvingly to the new priest, "Proficiency in general affairs is just ordinary. Being able to make good use of superpowers is the most valued ability of a servant, and the control of potential ones is especially critical. It’s not often that you have an opportunity to practice with a potential person like this. Great Priest, you should take advantage of it. Your Excellency’s trust in you has just begun, and you should prove to Your Excellency that you have this ability.”
Archpriest Bohr was agitated in his heart - the attendant's intention was very clear. As long as he does this well and proves that he has the ability to make good use of superpowers, especially the ability of Anthony, a potential person, he will be promoted to Your Excellency's Deputy Chief of Attendant - this is the pinnacle that an ordinary person can achieve in the Acropolis. One person is inferior to ten thousand people. It is an honorable position that many generations of the family have struggled to achieve. If he achieves it, then what will happen to him? How amazing!
Bol was so excited that he bowed to Cizer. "Yes, sir, yes, I will perform well," he choked, "I will live up to your cultivation."
Seeing the great priest's grateful face, Cesare was disgusted and quickly let him go.
Cesare also told the housekeeper to keep an eye on Miss Anne's condition and report any problems immediately. Then he hurriedly boarded the spacecraft.
After Rhine left, the turmoil on Beacon Star basically ended. David Duran then agreed to the report submitted by the Family Affairs Bureau and asked Hebrews to choose a time to hold a vassal ceremony to formally admit the families and superpowers who had contributed to the expulsion of the Heidi family into the clan. This would have a beginning and an end, and completely end the entire process. New Year's Day assassination.
At this ceremony, David was expected to receive over thirty independent vassals and two vassal families. The more than thirty independent vassals are mainly senior ranger superpowers who participated in rounding up the subordinate families of the Heidi family. They have captured more than dozens of subordinate members of the Heidi family, and among them there is at least one senior superpower who does not want to make money. Those who want to sell for quick money and want to have a good family background in Acropolis. After performing the surrender ceremony, they can naturally become a knight in the superpower world, get rid of the wandering and precarious life of a ranger, and enter the pyramid of power in the superpower world.
The new vassal family is, of course, the Stan family who bought the quill for 60 million. Their merits in the roundup were enough to make them nobles, and they got rid of the shameful hat of grass bandits - the super-powered nobles on the lighthouse star were cured because of their Because the princess was still alive and Heidi's family still existed, they all adopted a conservative strategy and did not participate in this roundup, thus taking advantage of Stan's bandits.
Another scheduled vassal family is rather strange, the Creston family. This is a typical border noble, a country bumpkin in the eyes of the Acropolis - this is nothing strange, since even grass bandits like the Stan family can do it, of course the Creston family can do it. The Acropolis also accepts a few country bumpkins every year. After all, Creston is still a noble.
The really weird thing about this matter is that Creston did not participate in the siege of the Heidi family. His patriarch went to spend the winter vacation with the healers on New Year’s Eve and was not at Lighthouse Planet at all. Therefore, during the entire expulsion incident There is no contribution at all. However, just because the patriarch of Creston was known as the kind and respectable Earl in Gu Hanhan's mouth, he was directly added to the list of surrender ceremony.
The nobles of the Lighthouse Star were all laughing because of this: "The hillbillies of Creston bought the sect master without paying a penny by relying on the Acropolis mistress."
Gu Hanhan's fame grew further from this, and he became an idol-level figure respected by all the mistresses in Acropolis.
Gu Hanhan didn't know that she had become a role model in the field of mistresses, and was regarded as a sight by the ladies of the Acropolis. She was walking around at the introduction banquet in a gorgeous dress - Yi on the spaceship. It was a secret ceremony for the husband's family to pledge allegiance to Anthony, so the whole process that Gu Hanhan saw was very simple. But in fact, the actual surrender ceremony of the Acropolis was very grand and complicated. Preparations must begin several days in advance. Not only must all the vassals of the clan be summoned, but invitations must also be issued to invite the Holy See to send priests to observe the ceremony and bear witness. Just on the day of the ceremony, a series of banquets and ceremonies will be held.
A sacrificial ceremony must be performed early in the morning. The vassals to be accepted will make sacrifices, and the blood representing loyalty and determination will be put into a golden cup and placed on the altar. Then comes a luncheon where the offerings are shared. After the luncheon, the new vassals who were ready to salute had to first visit the chief attendant and the director of the Family Affairs Administration respectively, and meet with their introducers. Then in the afternoon there will be a banquet to formally introduce them to the sect master. After the introduction banquet, the real surrender ceremony finally began.
After the ceremony, there was another grand celebration dinner. The gold cup on the altar was taken down and everyone drank a glass of blood wine. The party lasted all night and into the early morning of the next day. The new vassal must formally pay homage to the lord during the morning ceremony, make the first contribution and receive the gift. After the morning service, they would have an opportunity to have breakfast with the sect master as usual. At the same time, the Attendant's Office will take the Attendant's Letter, the reunited Secret Book and the Clan Emblem to the Holy See of the Association for registration. If the person was a ranger before being admitted or is a self-proclaimed family that has not yet been recognized by the Holy See, the association will also award a knighthood or a long sword representing the nobility.
All these rituals and banquets must be completed before noon the next day, and the entire ceremony is considered a successful conclusion only when all the rituals are completed. Therefore, for both the vassal and the vassaled, the surrender ceremony is an exhausting event, as sweet and hard-working as a wedding.
David is a person who has to attend several "weddings" a year. He has developed the ability to take some time off from his busy schedule early on. He will never show up until the last moment of the introduction banquet when it is necessary to show up. Gu Hanhan came to the banquet early because she wanted to accompany her good friend Mei Duo.
The morning sacrifice and the luncheon all had rigid rules of religious etiquette, and the count only needed to attend to them alone, so Gu Hanhan didn't need to worry about it. But the introduction dinner in the afternoon was different. It was a purely Acropolis-style social banquet, and everyone attending the banquet had to bring friends. Of course, Earl Creston's father's female companion at the banquet can only be Meadow. When Gu Hanhan thinks of those vulgar aristocratic women at the banquet, he will sneer and sneer at Meadow. The country bumpkin has found a country bumpkin. He is a double country bumpkin. Even Pili When Yang Qiudi introduced her new protector to her pimp, Gal felt pain in his back molars. So she worked hard to protect herself and wanted to be Mei Duo's companion, willing to be a green leaf, and use her invincible aura of a local girl from the earth to shock those vulgar and narcissistic middle-aged women and little princesses.
Therefore, Gu Hanhan waited and waited. The handsome valet in jewels and gowns had armed himself early. As soon as the count's father arrived with Mei Duo, he immediately rushed to the banquet.
As soon as the earth girl appeared, she immediately stole the limelight from the Earl's father. Of course everyone was going after her, who cared about watching a peep show of a country bumpkin wearing a crown of monkeys? The ladies and little princesses were not to be outdone, and rushed forward with smiles on their faces. No matter whether they think highly of Gu Hanhan or not, whether they despise her as the mistress of the Acropolis, it does not affect their attentiveness to her.
"I'm sorry, madams, can you give me some alone time?" Gu Hanhan separated from the ladies who were surrounding her one after another, and walked over to hug Mei Duoer, who was blocked by them, intimately, "I came here specially. The person accompanying Miss Mei is a good friend of mine."
After saying that, Gu Hanhan pulled Mei Duo and walked away. The valet naturally stopped others from disturbing her again.
Mei Duo was still a little confused. She received the news during the winter vacation, and then followed her father in a hurry back to Lighthouse Star. I was dragged to the banquet scene almost as soon as I got off the spaceship, and I haven't really reacted yet. She looked around in bewilderment at the noble men and women who were stopped by the servants and looked at them eagerly in the distance, and couldn't help but murmur.
"Are you okay, Hanhan?" she asked softly.
"It's okay." Gu Hanhan replied, "Be dedicated to your job, be a good mistress, and love what you do."
