The Glory of the Seven Gods of Ice and Fire

Chapter 146: Sudden Changes at the Ceremony
As soon as the news of Petyr Baelish's inauguration ceremony was released, Myr almost instantly became the focus of the entire New Seven Kingdoms.

Myr is the undisputed capital of the New Seven Kingdoms, so the Governor of Myr is naturally equivalent to the supreme leader of the Iron Throne in the east, commanding the entire New Seven Kingdoms.

And in fact, this is indeed the case. Although Governor Mill cannot make decisions within the various territories, he dictates the laws and policies that apply to the entire New Seven Kingdoms. This is why Littlefinger's promotion to power shocked the entire New Seven Kingdoms.

Merchants from the East and the West flocked to the city at the first opportunity. For them, information was life, and they would never miss the opportunity to show goodwill to the new Governor of Mill. After all, if the Governor was happy and gave them a trade charter, they would make a fortune.

Faced with such huge benefits, these merchants went to Myr without fear, even if it meant passing through the notorious Tranquility Fleet.

Therefore, Myr's harbor was filled with ships from all over the sea. Every ship owner who came to Myr presented gifts to the future leaders of the new seven kingdoms to express their respect, which enabled the new Governor of Myr to accumulate huge wealth in a short period of time - of course, this was relative to ordinary people.

Envoys from the other seven new territories also arrived one after another, ready to offer their blessings to the new Governor of Myr. They did not have any special emotions towards the new Governor of Myr. After all, the original Alexander was not paid much attention to, let alone the current Little Finger - in fact, if Hugo and Innis were not in Myr, they would definitely just send an envoy and be done with it.

After all, the leaders of the new seven kingdoms are still relatively independent. There is no need for them to come in person to replace a Governor of Myr, not to mention the traditional influence of the Westeros people of "mind their own business" - for example, the Riverlands have no interest in participating in the change of lords in the West.

Following them came the lords and nobles of the Iron Throne's Eastern system: they included Westeros nobles who had made their careers through expeditions, representatives of affiliated allied cities and independent lords, and administrators of church property of the Eastern Church... Compared to the commanders who had a somewhat cold attitude, these people were respectful and even fawning towards the new governor.

They do not have the same power as the commanders. These people are here to see if there is a chance to gain power and wealth in the succession of the governor's position. As Littlefinger has indeed promoted a few such lucky people, this group of people has become even more restless.

The arrival of so many people made the public security in Mill even worse, but the same reason applies: no one cared. So many people also brought countless consumption. Compared with the flow of gold and silver and the resurgence of Mill, some minor vicious incidents were nothing.

After all, Myr's continued recovery has benefited everyone in the city, which has silenced all opponents. It is said that scholars in Myr's Academy are collecting information and intend to record the chaos in Myr under the rule of the new governor, but even if that book comes out, it will be a long time in the future.

In fact, if Petyr was not unwilling to delay the time, there would definitely be more people coming to Myr, but the former envoy of the Iron Throne was unwilling to wait that long. He wanted to take control of Myr's power as soon as possible, so the inauguration ceremony also kicked off. The ceremony was held in the Grand Square of Myr, which had experienced too many political changes in recent days. Now it was decorated with lights and ribbons representing celebrations, and there were happy people everywhere - happy because Petyr gave them money in advance.

The stag flag of the Baratheon dynasty can be seen everywhere. It seems that the new governor particularly emphasizes his connection with the Iron Throne. He doesn't even print his own coat of arms. Some special envoys and followers only have small mockingbird buttons on their chests.

Hugo could see that Governor Petyr had made a very complete plan for this ceremony, but his team seemed to lack organizational skills: the panicked servants, the busy soldiers, the bewildered bureaucrats, and the occasional chaos all showed that Littlefinger had not yet controlled the city, and he still had a very long way to go.

As a person who has been through this, Hugo couldn't help but smirk in his heart. He didn't know if Littlefinger had any experience in dealing with such things. Otherwise, he would be in big trouble - and Hugo's attitude was that he was very pessimistic about Littlefinger's future. In Hugo's opinion, his team was still not good enough.

However, considering that in the original book he was a conspirator who went with the flow and pushed the general trend in the direction he wanted, Hu Ge's contempt disappeared again. Who can say whether this guy can do it?
Thinking of this, Hugo took a sip of wine. As the wine went down his throat, his thoughts paused, and then he looked forward to the ceremony starting. He had no interest in the ceremony itself. It might be important to Petyr, but it was just that to him. He wanted to finish the process here quickly and then return to the territory to deal with those restless centaurs.

As the leaders of the new seven kingdoms, Hugo and Inis both put on neat and beautiful robes with the emblems of their families on their chests. Behind them were rows of guards in ceremonial armor, closely guarding the two of them.

Next to the two commanders was Petyr Baelish, who was wearing a set of robes of an Iron Throne bureaucrat, but his robes were more luxurious than those of an ordinary clerk, with many gold and silver threads, but the composition of his robes reflected a serious atmosphere - however, due to Littlefinger's height, his temperament was still a little lacking.

But Littlefinger's confidence saved everything. Just like in the original book, Petyr had a strong calm temperament, as if no matter what happened in front of him, he would not be touched.

With the appearance of the leaders of various religious forces in Myr, led by the Eastern Church, the ceremony began. Bishop Myr was undoubtedly the host of the ceremony. Hugo had some impression of him. This person had once reported his position to Lu Chen in the City of Hugo. He didn't care much about this person. After all, he didn't need to deal with the subordinates of the Eastern Church. The two pillars of the Eastern Church were right next to him.

The bishop read a chapter from the Seven Star Bible, and everyone present knelt on one knee. The great victory of the expedition to the East awakened people's faith in the Seven Gods, especially the people of Westeros who migrated to the East. As for the locals, many of them also joined the ranks of worshipping the Seven Gods because of the great victory in the West.

However, at this moment, someone in the crowd suddenly threw something onto the ceremony, and as that thing was thrown out, a cloud of smoke filled the ceremony!
