Chapter 238
Chapter 238
Chi Yan gave the queen two choices. One is that she can be the queen until she dies and leave a suicide note at the end. The other is that she announces her abdication and crowns Chi Yan. Not a problem.
As long as she doesn't commit crimes, Chi Yan won't blink even if she holds a banquet every day.
And Chi Yan thoughtfully gave the queen two days to think about it.
During these two days, the queen lived like a year, and finally made a decision on the night when the time expired.
"I promise you." The queen looked at Chi Yan, her lips were tightly pressed together, "but you have to keep your promise."
Chi Yan was relieved, he finally reached the last step: "Of course."
The queen looked at him with a complicated expression: "I can't leave the holy city, where is my child?"
Chi Yan: "If they don't have the title of Queen's Son, they can go anywhere they want, except for your heir."
The queen has two children. One was declared her heir because she wanted to win over Benson, but the other child was never recognized. The unrecognized child was even luckier.
The queen sighed.
Chi Yan added: "Although your daughter can't leave the Holy City, as long as you're here for a day, she doesn't have to worry about making a living and can live a prosperous life."
The queen didn't look at Chi Yan: "Did you come here for the throne from the beginning?"
Chi Yan nodded: "At that time, I just wanted to see the situation. If there is a chance, that's great. If there is no chance, I can wait."
The queen smiled wryly and shook her head, unable to speak again.
She didn't ask until Chi Yan was about to leave, "Is it my fault?"
Chi Yan turned his head, leaning against the door frame, and said to her in a gentle voice, "No."
The queen was taken aback.
Chi Yan: "Even if it's not you, the result will be the same if you change someone else, because there is the Holy Court, and because I'm here, the result will always be the same."
The queen was silent, and she didn't speak again until Chi Yan left.
The coronation ceremony must be fast, and the soldiers in front cannot be given a chance to react. It is even better not to give any chance to react. By the time they find out, everything has been settled. The coronation, even if they don't admit it, Chi Yan still occupies the high ground and is a legitimate successor to the throne.
Although his surname is not Joles—but he has force, so it doesn't matter if he isn't surnamed Joels.
At least the holy city, he can hold it in his hand immediately.
Therefore, this coronation ceremony is destined not to be too grand, and the invitations will not be issued in advance. On the day of the coronation, Chi Yan will send someone to "invite" the nobles over.
Chi Yan didn't feel regretful either. He wasn't too fond of formalism. If he had other ideas in the future, he could do it again. Then he could just crown himself. That's what Napoleon did.
"You will come with me when the time comes." Chi Yan said to Kleist.
Kleist glanced at Chi Yan as if: "Together what?"
Chi Yan smiled brightly: "Let's be crowned together, you are my queen."
Kleist: "...Queen?"
Chi Yan raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it right?"
Kleist smiled and said, "I am the king of the demons, shouldn't you be my queen?"
Chi Yan spread his hands: "Everything is different, if you also come to the demon clan's coronation ceremony, I don't mind being your queen."
Kleist was actually persuaded by such a strange thing.
Chi Yan lay in Kleist's arms and enjoyed the future: "When I become king, I will beat the Flanders back first... Forget it, don't fight. There is a shortage of people now. After defeating them, they will be captured and let them go." They work, and when Frando pays them to redeem them, they will work, and I will earn money."
"Develop domestically first, then consider other countries."
The more Chi Yan thought about it, the more he felt it was right, and he even said it fluently: "If you want to get rich, build roads first, have fewer children and plant more trees."
Then he reacted: "It's better to have more children, let's encourage them."
"It just happened that the regulation that illegitimate births should be punished."
The age when fewer children were born was the age of population explosion. Unlike now, the labor force is inherently insufficient.
However, according to natural rules, after the turmoil in the outside world is over, families will be formed and children will be born.
When life returns to order and calms down, people's desire to have children will decrease again. Although Chi Yan doesn't quite understand the cause and effect relationship, it basically follows this law.
Chi Yan enjoyed the whole night, if Kleist hadn't covered his eyes with his hand, he would have thought of dawn.
The coronation ceremony is scheduled for three days later.
Before that, no one knew.
The queen is under house arrest in the castle, as are the castle's servants.
Only Juster was leading people to work - most of these people were Chi Yan's servants, but there were also a small number of them who were originally servants in the palace, and they were all heroes who knew the current affairs, and they quickly accepted the fact that they wanted to change their masters , and committed to keeping his job. After all, being a servant in the palace is a well-paid job with a high status and much better treatment than outside.
On the day of the coronation ceremony, Chi Yan arrived at the palace early. He and Kleist were both wearing dresses——this dress was changed by Chi Yan, because it was not made of modern hard fabrics. It is not like modern uniforms or suits, but it is improved on the basis of the original, removing some redundant decorations that even hinder the movement.
Only the ruffled cuffs popular in this era remained.
After changing it, Chi Yan finally accepted it.
In the afternoon, the nobles were "invited" over one after another, but the ministers came early in the morning. They changed their courts and always wanted to show their favor to Chi Yan.
The nobles sat on the chairs indignantly and confusedly, discussing with the people around them: "What's going on? Is the queen going to be crowned again?! What kind of talk is that!"
"Who knows what she thinks? Maybe it's because she didn't say anything during the last coronation ceremony? Do you want to do it again?"
"She's so free-wheeling! Her grandpa, grandpa's grandpa never did that!"
"Can't she be a normal king?"
"He even asked us to invite us! It's ridiculous!"
The ministers next to them were looking at these nobles with pity, and they could all imagine what kind of expressions these nobles would show later, which even made them feel that the nobles were pitiful.
While the nobles were talking non-stop, a person suddenly walked in at the door.
As soon as this person appeared, everyone shut their mouths and were speechless.
The queen walked on this road to the throne again, but her mood this time was completely different from the last time. Last time, she was full of excitement and enthusiasm, but this time, she was full of sadness, even numbness.
All eyes followed her until she did not sit on the throne, but stood on the left side of the throne, and someone came up from the right side. This person was holding a wooden tray with a crown on it, and the crown was still red. of linen.
There was an uproar.
"How is this going?!"
"Could it be that the queen is going to pass the throne to her daughter?! How is this possible?!"
"I can't do it, I have to get out of here!"
"Yeah! I have to get out of here too!"
The nobles became noisy.
Just when someone among them stood up and was about to try to leave.
A group of soldiers rushed in, holding long knives in their hands, and stood on both sides.
Ryan dragged the wooden plate on the stage and said: "Don't worry, adults. After the coronation ceremony is over, you can go back naturally."
"Who is crowned! Which Majesty?!"
"Your Majesty! What's wrong with you?!"
"Who are you going to pass the throne to?! Do you remember that your name is Joels?! Do you still know that you are Joels?!"
……
The queen's face was expressionless, but her teeth were about to be crushed.
But she didn't turn back, she could only follow the instructions Chi Yan gave her.
The nobles booed slowly. Those who could be kept in the holy city by the queen were originally a group of grasshoppers who followed suit. They scolded and scolded, but they didn't have the backbone to run out.
The hall fell silent again.
When he was about to reach the door, Chi Yan told Kleist to stop, then adjusted Kleist's collar, then looked up and smiled at Kleist.
Kleist asked him, "Are you afraid?"
Chi Yan shook his head: "Not afraid."
Kleist held his hand: "Let's go."
Then they hit the stride together.
The moment he walked into the gate, Chi Yan felt that something had changed. There were soldiers on both sides of the road, and the soldiers almost blocked all the nobles. Chi Yan looked at the throne on the steps and at the man who was staring at him intently. Queen, he finally felt a sense of relief that the dust had settled in his heart. As long as no one broke in at this moment, the coronation ceremony would go smoothly to the end.
Chi Yan held Kleist's hand tightly, and walked down the steps slowly and solemnly.
The queen seemed to have done a long time of psychological construction, until Chi Yan was about to lose patience, she walked down the steps "behind the clock", and then she motioned Chi Yan to half-kneel.
Chi Yan didn't kneel, he said in a voice that only they could hear: "I'm used to standing, so that's it."
The queen also didn't have the ability to reprimand Chi Yan. She could only stretch out her hand, raise her arm, spread her palm flat on top of Chi Yan's head, and then read out the blessings and admonitions that every king should listen to when he is crowned.
After reading, Ryan held the crown.
This time Kleist stood next to Chi Yan, but Chi Yan didn't send someone to send the queen's tiara - his queen is a man, so he should change to a tiara style.
He will put it on Kleist himself in the future.
The queen held up the crown.
The nobles gasped. They couldn't believe that they would see this scene in their lifetime, but they didn't dare to stop it.
Chi Yan bent down, and the queen maintained the posture of holding the crown for a long time.
Until Kleist glanced at her.
The queen pursed her lips, her hands trembling, and put the crown on Chi Yan's head.
The ruby on the crown shines brightly at this moment.
