Chapter 317 Coronation Ceremony, Queen Plantagenet!
Su Yu and Tina brought back a huge amount of loot and brought back a lot of blood to the devastated Plantagenet Empire.
With the abundant treasury, Princess Alijie formulated a series of high-standard post-war reconstruction and economic recovery plans, and distributed large amounts of reconstruction funds to Forest City, Oran City, Maple Leaf City and other areas that suffered serious losses in the war.
The entire country is starting to get back on track with the support of abundant funds.
One month of game time later, the last five missions of the main storyline of [Plantagenet Empire] started.
These 5-ring missions basically revolve around the coronation ceremony of the princess.
Su Yu’s role in this 5-ring mission is that of the imperial daughter’s diplomatic ambassador, responsible for receiving foreign dignitaries and envoys.
All countries in the Western Continent sent envoys to Plantagenet City to participate in the crowning ceremony of the princess.
Especially the envoys from the Hills Federation, who brought gifts worth more than a billion psychic coins!
The ability to send a gift of such high value shows that the Hills Federation has completely bid farewell to its original policy of riding on the fence according to the changing circumstances, and has begun to stand in the same trench as the Plantagenet Empire.
In addition to the small countries in the western continent, the Elf Kingdom and the Dwarf Kingdom also sent their respective envoys to bring some special and precious treasures.
The special envoy sent by the Elf Kingdom is Princess Yawen, whom Su Yu knows.
Princess Yawen's [Phytosis] is almost healed. This time she came to the human world, on the one hand, to attend the crowning ceremony of the princess, and on the other hand, she came to thank Su Yu, and asked Su Yu if he would like to marry her.
Su Yu accepted all the thank-you gifts brought by Princess Yawen unceremoniously, but as for the proposal... he thought about it and politely refused.
The special envoy sent by the dwarf kingdom is a holy red-bearded dwarf named [Bartek Ironbeard]. It is said that he is the swordsmanship teacher of Elizee's father, and the two often fenced together.
It is also worth mentioning that the two human empires of Wind Chime and Lane did not send envoys.
After learning that the princess was about to be crowned, they used magic communication to send a stern warning to the princess.
The content of the warning is not important, they are all "sin".
The two empires also took the opportunity to declare a national wartime emergency and formally declared war on the Plantagenet Empire.
Fortunately, the crowning ceremony of the princess was not affected by the two empires.
…
On July 31 of the Blue Star Calendar, which is the last day of the first expansion pack, the crowning ceremony of the Princess was officially held in the Plantagenet Central Square.
According to usual customs, the coronation ceremony is usually held at a place called the [Altar] on the north side of the Plantagenet Palace in order to obtain the protection of the ancestors.
But Alijie wanted to show her people-friendly side. Instead of choosing that location, the venue was set to be held in the central square so that the general public could witness her coronation.
After the coronation ceremony, she went to the altar to worship the spirits of her ancestors.
…
At ten o'clock in the morning during game time, the square was filled with people who came to watch the ceremony.
The place with a better location on the inside even had people coming to reserve seats in advance last night.
Everyone stood on tiptoes and looked towards the direction of the street leading to the palace.
Not long after, the royal princess's luxurious carriage, pulled by six horses and plated with mithril, slowly drove towards the square.
Alizee was wearing a luxurious gold and red robe, holding a golden scepter in her right hand that symbolized royal power, and looked at the people on both sides of the road with a smile.
Seeing the figure of the princess, the crowds on both sides of the road immediately burst into cheers like a mountain roar and a tsunami. Many people shouted the princess's name at the top of their lungs.
If the princess founded a religion, these people would definitely be her fanatical followers.
Su Yu and Tina stood on a carriage not far behind Alijie, wearing dozens of merit medals on their chests, waving to the people on both sides of the road.
The princess’s car drove slowly to the square amidst the cheers of the people.
After arriving at the square, the entire coronation ceremony officially began.
The coronation ceremony is divided into two parts. The first part is the sacrificial ceremony, in which blessings are obtained by praying to the ancestors;
The second part is the formal coronation ceremony.
The first part of the ceremony.
Under the leadership of Alijie, a huge 20-meter-high totem pole was erected in the square. Alijie knelt down towards the totem pole and prayed to the spirits of her ancestors.
The totem pole exudes colorful lights, which are the marks of power left by the Plantagenet emperors of all generations when they were at the peak of their power at the age of 40.
The energy rich in these marks constantly overflows from the totem pole and falls on Elizee's body, blessing the future successor of the empire.
Because of the relationship of the same origin, these powers were quickly assimilated into Alijie's own strength, and her strength also began to skyrocket.
Finally, a few minutes later, Alijie successfully broke through the bottleneck on the stage and became a fifth-level magician, possessing the ability to fly.
After she said some prayers to thank the ancestors, the first stage of the sacrificial ceremony ended.
The second stage.
Alicia stood up, holding on to the totem pole, and was officially crowned emperor in the presence of her ancestors.
The royal chief magician [Shalan] solemnly walked out from the side of the ceremonial stage, holding a pale gold crown inlaid with a large number of gems in her hand.
According to convention, this crown will be worn by Shallan for Alizee, which can reflect the royal family's respect for the supernatural energy of "magic".
But Alijie didn’t want to play by the rules.
She took the crown from Shallan and put it on herself. This means that rights are given to oneself.
Then Elizee raised her arms and said to the people in the audience: "I, Elizee Plantagenet, am your undoubted queen!"
This act of breaking the old rules surprised many noble ministers in the audience.
But some people chanted fanatically:
“Long live!”
“Long live!”
“Long live Her Majesty the Queen!”
The cheers continued to rise, with each wave drowning out the other.
From the moment Elizee put on the crown, the title "Princess Elizee" completely became history, replaced by "Queen Elizee".
She will lead Plantagenet to a new future!
After the cheers subsided slightly, Alicia lowered her hands and began her first speech after her coronation:
"My people, in the past forty years, our country has experienced an unprecedented catastrophe. In this catastrophe, the two Dukes of Lantilus and Anzu Cypher in the north could not restrain themselves. Ambition. (Omit 300 words) Finally, we survived this crisis. With the help of Prophet Nemesis and Grand Marshal Tina Garcia, we restored the unity of the empire and obtained the resources that can help us rebuild our homeland. Valuable resources (omit 500 words)”
“Now I can solemnly assure you that under my leadership, our Plantagenet Empire will have a better tomorrow!”
“Long live Her Majesty the Queen!”
“Long live!”
“Long live!”
The crowd in the audience once again burst into loud cheers.
Many people threw their hats high, and the audience immediately turned into a sea of hats.
