To Four Thousand Years Later

"First, I hereby bless the holy marriage of the three kings of Frank, King Solomon, His Majesty Charles and Queen Yastaru, and declare that it has the highest legal effect. Leo III said in a deep voice. This will not make everyone feel Before the surprise, the wedding of King Solomon and his queen was presided over by His Excellency Tupin, the forerunner of knowledge.

A formal wedding of a nobleman above an earl. All should be presided over by the bishop, preferably a bishop of the same level as himself. Although the supervisor is from the Holy See, he is not a bishop, in other words, he is responsible for the work.

Although the status of the leader of the supervisor is extremely high, he is almost recognized as the most knowledgeable and good at teaching in this world, that is, the one with the highest professional title among all intellectuals, and his status is second only to the Pope and the Pontiff...but he Still in charge. If everything is done according to the rules, seniority and favors are ignored, his power is not even comparable to that of the most ordinary local bishop, let alone the power to preside over the sacrament of marriage. Although in fact he can even order the archbishop to modify personnel changes as well. Therefore, King Solomon's marriage was actually illegal. Er Geng didn't have the guts to criticize Letupin, so the matter was left alone. In the eyes of the nobles, Leo III was playing nice to King Solomon. This kind of catch-up wedding before is not without precedent, but there are not many. It doesn't matter if the nobles don't hold a wedding, or even a big wedding ceremony, but if they just find someone to forcefully replace the bishop to hold the sacrament, that would be a public mockery of Solomonism. This is like a commoner privately arresting, imprisoning, and interrogating prisoners in front of the lord and nobles. It is an act of overstepping the rules. There are five sacraments in Solomonism: Naming, Marriage, Holy Order, Confession, and Burial. Each of these bets can be completed privately, but if it is a public ceremony, the bishop must be invited to preside over the sacrament, and at the same time one-twelfth to one-third of one month's income must be paid as a gift. Anyone who pretends to be a bishop to hold sacraments for profit will be sentenced to a severe sentence of exile. After all, the five sacraments are the most important income of the Solomon Church. Moving this is like touching the king's salt and iron, so people are a little curious. What sacrament could Leo III proclaim besides King Solomon's marriage sacrament?

"Secondly, I announce that the former Pope Adrian I has been sealed in the holy coffin. This year, he built the St. Denis Tower and held the ceremony of the coffin. Appointed Archbishop Ascart as the guardian of the coffin. Leo solemnly Chant.

like. He stretched out his hand and pointed slightly at a small archbishop with a serious face. He saluted everyone around him. It is a "burial" sacrament. Everyone reacted quickly.

In all fairness, Adrian did not actually have any great, sacred and great deeds... But from the point of view of the Franks, they chose to leave Gothic and move into the Frankish country. This may also be regarded as a great good thing.

Seeing that everyone had finished digesting the news, the new Pope Leo III, holding the holy staff, continued to speak.

"After that. I'm going to introduce you to a friend of mine.

"Tertley, Neustria, Brittany, Puntion, Aquitaine, Gascony, Burgundy, Austrasia, Bavaria, Saxony, Friesland, Charles, king of the provinces of Norricum, Pannonia, Crosia, and the northern tribes. He was tall and strong, with a clear voice, handsome appearance, and excellent wisdom.

"He was a man of utter integrity, a virtuous monarch, a just leader. A king with all in mind.

"He turned the basest men from their fellows, and he avenged his brother and his sister-in-law. He punished the guilty, and loved the wise. He drew them to his side, and respected their opinion. He was The guardian of the poor. He worked hard for people to keep their own property." He studied every day and wrote a book to leave his own wisdom. He strictly abides by his promises and laws. And continue to make efforts to make the law more fair and just. He is gentle in nature and always slightly twitched. If anyone begs to see our king with sorrow and sorrow, he only needs to talk to him for a few words, and he can leave happily; Ask him questions and he will answer.

"He conquered the wizards of Spain, and eradicated the curse of voodoo from the land. St. Augustine rebuked the gods: When the sun returned, he returned to the earth and claimed power, and I say that it is not Rome that you love , but himself." And so he rebuked the magic electricity, and wiped out the devil from Spain."

"He invented the great machine of war, and won great victories for the Franks. He cut off intrigue from the royal court, and appointed men who were wise and undeceitful. He welcomed wise men, even though she had no guards, a field, A piece of property. He can fight, he can research, he can teach, and he can learn. He can write books, he can also understand music, he is good at hunting, and he is proficient in magic.

"If someone does something stupid in his presence, he only needs to look at it to make the person feel guilty and bow down. As the wise king Solomon said of old, 'The king sits on the judgment seat, and he will drive away with his eyes. Evils "Therefore, I bless the most merciful, wisest, most just, and most upright king. In addition to possessing all the excellent qualities of a king, he can be fairly considered the eternal judge of the world, the successor of King Solomon and St. Augustus. ’ After Leo III said this, he forcibly broke off the triple crown made of copper that he had taken off.

I saw a slightly smaller luxurious crown hidden in the double crown.

The nobles and archbishops watched this scene in amazement, bewilderment and bewilderment. Apparently none of them knew what was going to happen next.

"I, the successor of the Apostles, Supreme Patriarch of the Church of Solomon, ninety-eighth Pope, Leo III. Leo repeated again, holding up the crown: "Crown King Charles of Solomon. King of Falcon, King of Goths, King of Welsh, King of Carthage, Emperor of the Romans.

"Its name is Charles the Great.

"And bestow upon us the holy and humble blessings upon your Majesty and your kingdoms.

"On my behalf.

Charles half-kneeled in front of him, watched him put the crown on his head calmly, and replied, "In the name of the emperor, I promise." As soon as the words fell, the holy and bright white light bloomed from Charles immediately.
