In the Name of the Queen

Roland frowned after leaving Alina's mansion.

Damn the Ruriks, they still stretched out their bear paws.

The Shadow Templar are the elite of Rurik's Night Walkers. They walk in the darkness and solve problems for Queen Sophia that cannot be solved under the sun.

They are powerful and ruthless.

The ruthlessness of Angelina's attack is evident.

If Raikkonen hadn't been lucky, he would have died.

No one even knows who did it.

Angelina's public identity is that of a diplomatic envoy congratulating the Glory Day.

As we all know, diplomatic envoys do everything except diplomacy. Her purpose here is definitely not simple.

Sitting in the carriage, Roland's brows gradually relaxed.

Fortunately, it was Angelina who came, not Sophia.

The relationship between the Sussex Empire and the Vladimir Empire can be said to be good or bad.

Although the two sides competed for interests overseas, there were several multi-person movements involving tens of thousands of people, but afterwards both sides claimed it was a misunderstanding and did not formally declare war.

In this day and age, no one is considered a friend until war is officially declared.

It is also normal for them to send diplomatic envoys to congratulate the Glorious Day.

Sussex will also send envoys to congratulate the Snow Melt Festival.

Even if you secretly want to tear each other apart, you still have to do the work of face.

Roland's mood gradually calmed down, and after sorting out the information obtained from Alina, a possibility gradually emerged.

Angelina is Sophia's most trusted minister.

If Queen Sif and Count Sif are really two people, then Angelina's status is similar to that of Count Sif.

If you are just attending the celebration, there is no need to send Angelina here.

Roland boldly guessed that she was observing Sylph closely for Sophia.

In Sophia's eyes, Sylph is a walking promotion material. At least she wants to see how this material develops and whether it is big enough to eat.

Cold, but reasonable.

Returning to the Knights, Sif came to him just in time to rehearse the play.

"Roland, I read the script again yesterday. We can modify it like this."

Sif happily pulled Roland, a smile spreading on her lips and dimples.

The performance made her particularly happy.

Performing with Roland is twice as fun.

Not only does she want to participate in the show, she also wants to win the championship!

She knew that Roland needed this championship, and she also knew that Roland arranged for Adam to perform.

But she dismissed Adam as a person.

Angrily denouncing foreign corruption can relieve anger, but it is too heavy-handed and can only awaken resentment in people's hearts.

She will give the audience a sunny performance and win the championship among flowers and applause.

Looking at Sif's clear smile, Roland suppressed some worries.

Let him solve the Knights' troubles.

What is the use of such a leader who goes to the emperor to complain when he encounters even the smallest trouble?

The glorious day has finally come.

After Raikkonen's reconnaissance failed, everything returned to calm.

But Roland knew very well that this was the moment of silence before the storm.

He and Finlay will eventually have to decide the winner on the stage.

Finlay represented the Macbeth family, the North Star of Sussex literary circles, and Roland represented both himself and the Queen.

The Radiant Day lasts for three days in total.

The first two days are a warm-up, gradually pushing the atmosphere to a climax.

The highlight is the third day.

Glory Day is the most important holiday for Sussex people.

This day is also the National Day of the Empire, and it is more likely to be a rare sunny day every winter.

There is a folk legend that as long as the sun is seen on the glorious day, it indicates that everything will go well in the next year.

December 17, the third day of the Glory Day.

In King Quan Square, the crowds surged, and the streets were empty for hundreds of thousands of people.

The sun shines brightly on everything, making most of the haze that permeated the winter disappear in an instant.

What a good sign.

The bright sunshine made the crowd more enthusiastic.

They crowded towards the King's Power Square in unison.

Good news: This square has been designed with the entire city in mind since its inception. It is designed according to the upper limit of population size and is more than enough to accommodate everyone.

The bad news: The city had a population of 90,000 then and now has 850,000.

Although they would like to see the beautiful queen up close, not many are lucky enough.

The army worked hard to maintain order and keep latecomers out of the square.

However, the crowd was not happy and chanted slogans.

"We want to see the Queen!"

"Long live Her Majesty the Queen!"

The soldiers were not surprised by the enthusiasm of the crowd, but the expressions of the cabinet ministers sitting on the high platform were somewhat unnatural.

Queen Sylve is only acting as the temporary emperor and has not yet taken charge of the government. She has such appeal. How can she wait until she officially ascends the throne?

The ministers avoided Walder and secretly exchanged glances.

They said nothing, but completed the exchange of information.

A long horn sounded.

The Queen's carriage came from the direction of Sheffield Castle and drove slowly towards the square.

The crowd was so packed that the carriage could not pass.

The crowd wanted to see the queen, but they didn't know that there were two queens in the carriage at the moment.

Seeing that the carriage could not move forward, the anxious soldiers raised their whips to drive away the crowd.

"stop!"

The car curtain was lifted, a fair-skinned jade hand poked out, and then a graceful and elegant girl came out.

This girl holds a green scepter in her hand, wears a crown decorated with countless gems, and is dressed in a rich dress. She is three-quarters majestic but seven-cent cold.

The whole place was silent.

The crowd in the front row burst into tears when they saw the Queen.

"The Queen smiled at me."

"Shut up, the Queen is clearly looking at me."

Queen Sylph waved gently to the crowd, and then walked forward with firm steps.

Behind her, several maids held the hem of her long skirt.

Beside her, the guards held their weapons nervously, fearing that the mob would approach.

"Get out of the way, the people of Sussex will never hurt their king."

The soft voice made the soldiers put down their halberds and the crowd consciously make way.

They squeezed together to make way for the Queen.

Sylph, who was sitting in the carriage, was stunned.

She finally realized how powerful the orthodox power Roland had said was.

As long as the emperor did not act recklessly, the people's trust in the emperor was almost blind.

Although the thirty-four generations of emperors of the Sussex Empire could not be said to be wise rulers, there were not many outright fools.

After all, the emperor did not need to directly suck the marrow of the people, but corrupt officials would.

So in the minds of the masses, the emperor is good, and the bad ones are officials with pus on their feet.

After seeing the true face of the queen, they are more convinced of this.

Such a beautiful, delicate girl can be blown down by a gust of wind, what bad intentions can she have?

What's more, she trusts everyone so much.

Seeing the white skin of Her Majesty, who is so pale that it has no blood, they feel even more distressed.

Governing such a big country, Her Majesty is so tired that her face is pale.

Queen Sylph moved forward slowly, walking steadily on the road that the crowd made way for.

She climbed onto the high platform and raised the scepter.

"May the sun shine on every inch of land."

"God bless Sussex."

"The celebration performance begins."

Dear readers, I am really sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt the chapter. I have been writing from 6 o'clock in the morning until now, and I have written more than 10,000 words, but I am not satisfied with the content of the celebration, so I deleted it.

This is a big plot, I will definitely finish it tomorrow to give you a smooth reading experience.
