Refusing Love As A Queen

Chapter 21: God Bless the Queen

The owner who made His Royal Highness the "overheaded" just accept the cheers of the crowd.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

"..."

Amidst the waves of shouts, on August 23, the Queen’s coronation ceremony arrived as scheduled.

Just after dawn, people gathered early on the square of the Summer Palace. This is the front of the main house of the castle. It has an arc-shaped balcony where important members of the royal family will appear in front of the public during festival celebrations.

When Queen Adele Roland appeared, the voice reached a peak.

The young rulers of the empire wore long skirts of taffeta with jacquard embroidery of silver and gold threads, and a short white-snow cloak on their shoulders. The pearls inlaid on the edges were round and soft in the sun. The long hair was half-twisted by Mrs. Kelly, tied behind her head, and then fixed them with a thin silver veil with twelve shiny diamond hair pins. The translucent veil is studded with finely divided diamonds, hanging down like a bright galaxy.

Where she is now, the ancient creed is confirmed-the monarch on the ground is the incarnation of God in the world.

No matter what attitude people have toward the queen in the past, at least at this moment, they firmly believe this-besides the incarnation of God, who would have such a dazzling face?

When the queen waved at them, they cheered willingly:

"God bless the queen!"

"God bless the queen!"

...

The queen only stayed on the balcony for a short time, but people's regrets will not last long, because soon she will appear on the gate of the summer palace, from there to start this much-watched celebration tour.

Adele walked down the corridor accompanied by everyone.

Thousands of high-ranking officials waited outside the east gate of the Summer Palace. They were all wearing luxurious clothes. It was vaguely visible that these people were divided into several factions, large or small.

Heinrich stood in front of the House of Representatives, wearing a bronze double-headed snake badge on his left shoulder. The eyes of the snake were embedded with emeralds, reflecting the gloom in the sun. Dalton stood on the other side, still wearing the same outfit he had when he was made a knight by the queen that day, but with a striking golden rose on his shoulder.

Dalton nodded slightly to the queen.

After that day, he disappeared in front of the queen for a while, and didn't appear until the queen called. Nevertheless, he did what he was supposed to do very well-the Queen's eyes swept across the crowd, and he could only instinctively identify the fire/gunners in disguise.

As the Archbishop of the Empire, Rodri must play today. He stood at the exit of the stairs, and when the queen passed him, his lips squirmed very quickly and said "careful" very quietly.

Adele smiled, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes.

Of course she will be careful.

The church bells in the distance echoed over the city, and thousands of white doves were released at the same time. In the shadow of the white doves flapping their wings, she saw the shadow of the crows.

This is the anniversary of her coronation and the day of her trial in her previous life.

"Article 1: The National Assembly announced that Adele Roland shamefully stole power that did not belong to her and harmed the empire with heresy."

The voice of the clerks announcing the verdict rang in their ears, and they set her crowning king as the day of trial.

Adele walked down the steps step by step, the skirt scraped from the rough rock.

"Article 2: The National Assembly announced that Adele Roland would be sentenced to death."

Her gaze crossed the familiar faces, and they stood like crows and ghosts dressed in black. They deprived her of the crown, deprived of her glory, and imposed shame on her without cause.

Adele walked to the bottom step, the shadow of the palace's towering shadow ended here.

"Being a woman wearing a crown is my only original sin."

No, it's not her original sin, it's theirs.

Adele moved forward and broke free of the long darkness.

The noisy crowd suddenly became quiet at this moment. They craned their necks and opened their eyes wide, shocked by an inexplicable force.

——Behind the queen is the summer palace shrouded in shadow, with window lattices, slender pillars and spire irons/guns going up vertically, piercing the sky straight, and the zigzag wall traverses out like an unfolding Great Wall of Beacon. In front of the queen were nearly a thousand councillors, monks and guards standing still. Hundreds of horses dressed in platinum silk and satin waited.

She stepped forward, stepping on the dividing line between light and darkness.

The wind lifted the queen's veil, and the last white dove fluttered across the sky. The organ, the trumpet, and the bell sounded together, and the world was as majestic as the end.

After a brief, peculiar silence, the crowd seemed to have been called by the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, and cheered louder than ever before, "God bless the queen!" "Long live the queen!" "God bless the queen!"... In the voice, the queen raised her arms high and responded with the same voice:

"God bless my people!"

God bless my people!

"...Her beauty always resides in the hearts of everyone present, no matter who hates her or respects her, whether it is her enemy or her friend, all are conquered by her beauty at that moment. That It’s a breathtaking, trembling beauty, unmatched, unsightly, only surrender... that seems to be a sign.

Years later, a historian who had witnessed this scene personally wrote in his memoirs.

Prince Arthur did not know how many letters, biographies, and documents were traced by later historians in order to restore this scene. He only knew that at this moment, he lost his language, thought, and senses.

He watched the queen walk towards him in radiance, his heart beating like thunder.

Every nerve, every blood vessel, every signal of aliveness is all away from him.

The moment the queen stretched out his hand towards him, he knelt down on one knee without hesitation and kissed the back of her hand religiously.

Strictly speaking, he now represents the emperor of the Ruth Empire, and his status is equal to that of Queen Roland. It would be disgraced to take the lead in such a move in public. But no one scolded him, no one laughed at him, even the envoys of Lut who should have been dissatisfied with it.

Wherever the queen went, all the accompanying officials bend down deeply.

"set off."

With the support of Prince Arthur, Adele rode in a convertible carriage fixed with crimson leather with gilded nails. Prince Arthur sat next to her instead of her fiance Orsis.

The tour/line team begins to move forward.

………………

The tour/line/route of the celebration starts from the east gate of the Summer Palace, ends at the Santa Maria Cathedral, and walks on the famous Royal Avenue. Heinrich couldn't change the Queen's decision to insist on traveling, so he could only shorten the distance from the palace to the church as much as possible and choose the route as straight and spacious as possible.

As a knight leader, Dalton followed the queen on a horse.

Under the black cloak outside his short crimson jacket, the flintlock/hair/gun clung to his waist. Except for the moment in front of the palace, he tried his best to avoid his eyes falling on the Queen and Prince Arthur... This is what you deserve... The Queen's voice, the face of the Queen standing in front of the Summer Palace crossed his mind Pass by.

He suppressed those with amazing perseverance.

This is not the time to think about that.

Dalton's gaze swept across the crowd on both sides of the tour/line/avenue like a falcon, and occasionally quickly made one or two hidden gestures. And with every gesture of his, among the queen's huge entourage, there will be one or two people secretly disappearing into the crowd. Then, one or two figures in the crowd on the side of the street were covered with their mouths and dragged silently.

Those who resist will be cut open without hesitation.

Every section, every street is a battlefield.

Neither Heinrich nor Dalton could say whether there would be a crossbow quietly placed behind a certain window, waiting for the queen to pass by, with a fatal blow. Therefore, the spies of the Heinrich family controlled all the windows facing the street. And they also couldn't say whether there would be a certain crazy old cultist, carrying a saw-short hunting/gun, disguising as a happy citizen, and shooting up close.

The snake and the wolf acted at the same time. When the queen smiled and responded to people's shouts, blood and death threatened her life in the shadow at the same time.

This tour/travel is actually a war under the sun.

The queen, the empire, they and the diehards of the old gods, and all the enemies who want to fish in troubled waters.

Among those taken by the Heinrich family from behind the window, one-third of the old Christians had contact with the spies of the Jager Kingdom, and one-third of the Christians knelt down and kissed the paint from the Papal Kingdom. Believe that only one-third of people are true religious fanatics.

This is why the queen is determined to use the harshest means to complete this cleansing.

The Roland Empire was too close to the Pope. When it declined, those with crowns and robes, like the Yage Kingdom, cast their coveted eyes on this ancient empire, trying to make it a subsidiary city like a "free city". . And the old **** sect has existed in the empire for too long, too long, so long that it has long been decayed and fell into the mud day after day.

"...This part of the Old God Sect believers is like the rotten flesh of the Empire's wounds. Applying ointment can not heal it. It can only be completely cut off and then supplemented with good medicine to help it recover."

——These are the original words of the Queen.

When she said this, she was sitting on the throne, closing the scriptures respected by the old sect, her face covered with a **** veil under the sunlight.

That was the first time he saw her since the quarrel that day.

Years of battlefield career made him hear the sound of the trumpet hidden behind the queen's soft words, which was a signal to declare war. The queen at that moment, like all kings, was not only a ruler dealing with government affairs, but also an invincible general on the battlefield.

"Robert Dalton."

The queen said his name slowly, putting her hands on either side of the throne.

"In the name of the Queen of the Empire, I ask you, do you want to fight for me with a sword? Do you want to defend me with a shield?"

Their eyes collided in the air. She didn't mention those words that day, and he still had the Imperial Marshal's appointment letter signed on July 15 in his pocket.

This is the last chance.

Dalton knew what she meant.

The blood-colored sun fell on the western horizon, and he slowly knelt down on one knee, raising his hand to tap his heart.

——My sword is your sword, and my shield is your shield.

The queen touched his shoulder with her hand.

There is no priest, no sword, no witness, but that is the real grant.

The sun was scorching, Dalton pressed his lips tightly, and followed the Queen's carriage with expressionlessly, his eyes patrolling endlessly, like a falcon hovering in the sky.

The queen has used herself as a bait with extraordinary courage, and placed herself in the most dangerous place. The remaining battlefield should be killed by her courtiers and generals.

If you can’t do the rest, what right do you have to call yourself——

knight.

………………

When the spire of St. Mary’s Cathedral appeared in the field of vision, Dalton could not remember how many gestures he had made, but... the gods are on the top, this is the first time he has seen it sincerely I was so grateful when I was in church. This means that the queen's first war will usher in victory.

But, soon, the smile on his face disappeared, and he subconsciously pressed his hand on the handle of the gun.

"Dalton."

The queen was facing sideways, saying hello to the welcoming citizens on the left side of the street-Heinrich had always disapproved of her being too friendly to the common people, and believed that the ruler should always be majestic to maintain the fear of the people.

But the queen cares more about what the people want.

At this moment, she just caught a glimpse of Dalton's movement from the corner of her eye, and immediately suppressed it in a low voice.

Dalton slowly removed his hand from the handle of the gun.

Adele narrowed his smile and looked straight ahead.

On the last section of the stone road leading to the Cathedral of Santa Maria, three figures stood quietly. ——Three old priests. They were dressed similarly to Archbishop Rodri, dressed in dark overalls, with rough hemp rope tied around their waists, and straw sandals on their feet.

Modeled after the saint in the legend asked the tyrant where his authority came from.

Adele thoughtfully.

"His Majesty."

Heinrich rode to the queen's side and asked in a low voice.

"I will drive them away."

Adele shook his head slightly.

The people of the Old God sect are not useless, at least their last hand is accurate and cruel. Three old priests are far better than three thousand brave temple knights in front of the people.

"Go ahead and stop."

She ordered.

The carriage stopped in front of the three priests, and Dalton stepped forward quietly. If they were priests trained by the Knights of the Temple, even if they looked old and dry, they might not be without a blow.

The noise gradually subsided, and the crowd watched the scene quietly, watching the young queen.

Not only did she not get angry, she also extended her hand to the three priests according to etiquette and asked them to salute: "Gentlemen, you are waiting under the scorching sun. If there is anything you want to say, I would like to listen with my greatest sincerity. ."

The queen's friendly and humble attitude made people smile, but soon their smiles became uneasy.

Because the priest in the lead did not bow down to salute.

At the same time, Heinrich recognized the two priests behind him.

They are called "Brother John" and are the spiritual leaders of the northern ascetics. It is said that they had been called by God in the place where the saints appeared, and felt that people always lie to each other and their tongues evolved from snakes, which are the root of sin. So they pulled out their tongues and used actions to preach.

People believe that they are blessed, and their eyes can see signs that others cannot see.

Unexpectedly, they were also members of the Knights of the Temple.

Heinrich's face changed slightly, and he wanted to stop the priest headed from speaking.

But it was too late.

"God took the ribs of a man and made his wife. She made his wife bone in his bones, flesh in flesh, and blood in blood. The woman instigated a man to commit the original sin. In order to wash away that sin, she should obey her spirit and flesh. Master.” The old priest said, his voice hoarse, like a night owl, “and God gives authority to his incarnation on the earth, and gives the crown to the king he chooses, and they rule the world. This is a natural order, a god. ’S will."

The queen retracted her hand, her eyes gradually colder: "God gave me the crown. This is the right and status I was born with."

"You stole it! Women's governance violates the laws of nature and the will of God. In the doctrine, this is clearly written! God's anger has come early for this-the drought is caused by you! This is God's judgment and punishment!"

The John brother behind him stood up in silence and took a step forward. Amidst the shouts of people, two lines of blood and tears rolled from their faces.

"You inherited the heresy of the Eye of the Witch, it is your blasphemy/blasphemous law, you are not worthy to be the king of Roland, you defiled the throne, you caused disaster for the empire, you blasphemed/blasphemed the gods! What do you have The face continues to wear that crown? What reason do you have to continue sitting on that throne?"

The old priest shouted, and he opened his arms.

"Don't you know?! Isn't those eyes a symbol of **** and evil?! Isn't the wrath of God already upon us! One day after the heresy and the witch occupy the throne, Roland will be struggling in disaster for one day? Day! Are you still going to continue on the road of offending God?"

He was old and withered, and when his hissing and roaring, he was piercing with sorrow.

Several old cultists concealed in the crowd followed and shouted-"Here is not worthy to rule Roland!" "Witch!" "Evil eyes"-the voice grew louder. Dalton made a gesture, and the guards on the left and right of the queen drew out fire/guns. The assassins of the Heinrich family quickly grabbed the instigator in the crowd and dragged them toward the dark.

The old priest was still yelling, Dalton drew his gun without hesitation and pointed it at him.

One hand held his gun.

The queen did not know when she stood up.

She stared at the old priest coldly, and her voice remained steady and strong despite this confusion and accusation.

"You are wrong." She said, "My mother is not a witch, she is the King of Kelly, and the Rose of Kelly."

The old priest sipped heavily on the ground, and he stared at the queen firmly: "Miko!"

"I will judge you, but not for me, but for you to insult the honor of a respectable deceased." As if there was an iron mask over the queen's face, her voice contained unshakable majesty," At the same time, I am determined to refute you. I will prove to you and to all the people who support me—"

"God granted me the crown, I deserve it!"

Add a little explanation:

The rule of women in the Middle Ages and even the Renaissance was indeed regarded as "violating the natural order". The situation of female rulers during that period is explained in Chapter 14 of this article. If you have any doubts about this chapter, please turn forward. I saw readers mentioning that Ekatena II was not the heir to the throne but also became the queen. What must be mentioned here is that in the eighteenth century, when Catherine II lived, society had undergone changes, and Catherine II herself was related to the Rurik dynasty of Russia, and she became the queen. It was not through normal means, but a coup/d'etat was launched, which is a special case.
