Chapter 817 A new age

Chapter 817 A new age

Angela just ignored all of the gazes that were on her, but I didn't.

I could see that there were a few gazes from people that could be considered disrespectful and since she was about to become my wife...I naturally wouldn't forget or forgive them.

I would make sure to get the fourth prince to deal with them later.

Or at least that was what I thought until I noticed that the fourth prince had also noted these people. At the same time, it wasn't just the fourth prince alone who noted these people.

The king also had slightly narrowed eyes as he looked over the crowd.

It seemed that even without me saying anything, they would have taken care of this matter.

Still, I had to say something since I was her husband.

I wouldn't want to let my wife feel like she was being ignored right after we got married.

After Angela walked through the church, she came over to my side with a smile and I reached my hand out for her.

Once she took my hand, we stood there in front of the altar where there was a priest waiting.

Only this wasn't any priest.

This was the cardinal of this religion, the one that was just below the pope that had been sent to this kingdom to watch over the branch of the religion that was based in this kingdom.

This was the highest church official of this kingdom, but now they were acting as the priest of a wedding.

That was just how important this royal wedding was.

Not to mention, the cardinal was actually quite the kind hearted person and seemed to enjoy watching young love. It seemed like he could pick up the small signs from us that showed that we indeed loved each other, so it seemed that he supported us.

The rest of the wedding just went as the ceremony dictated.

There was nothing unexpected that happened during the ceremony, though there were times that seemed like people wanted to act.

Angela and I both slightly knitted our brows since it sounded a bit strange the way that he said this, but in the end, Angela just said with a touched look, "Royal father, thank you for everything."

The king patted her on the back of her hand before turning to look at the crowd.

When they heard this, they immediately focused their attention on the king.

Everyone could see that the king seemed to have something that he wanted to say, so they didn't want to miss a single thing that he said.

The king remained silent for a bit before taking a deep breath and saying, "Everyone, with my daughter getting married, I can see that a new age is coming. I've been getting older as time passes and it doesn't seem fit that I remain in my position as this new age comes."

Shocked looks appeared on everyone's face when they heard this.

After all, not a single person had expected the king to suddenly talk about something like this.

There were no signs at all that the king would be passing down the throne for ages, but now for him to suddenly mention something like this...

It seemed like the royal family had made their plans a long time ago?

Everyone glanced at the fourth prince who had been following behind the king the entire time.

The looks in their eyes made it clear that all of them thought that he would be the king's successor.

Though if one thought about it, it made sense.

The only other child that the king had left was the princess and she had just gotten married.

So it wasn't as if she would be able to take the throne now.

The fourth prince was also the most competent one, everyone knew how terrifying he was based on what had happened recently.

So they were all waiting for the king to pass the throne to him.

But they were all shocked when they heard what he had to say next.
