The Glory of the Seven Gods of Ice and Fire

Chapter 77 Deals and Weddings

At a time when both sides of the Narrow Sea were undergoing drastic changes due to the Andas incident, in Andas, Hugo ended his inspection of various places in Andas and also inspected the war preparations in various places. He praised those who were well prepared and reprimanded them. Unprepared.

In the process, he was able to meet people from all over the Andals, and also saw the changes that his expedition had brought to the land of origin of the Andals - despite all its darkness and shortcomings, the Andals' Life is still much better than before.

After completing everything, Hugo returned to his actual ruling center, Hugo's city, to deal with various government affairs accumulated during the tour, as well as to communicate with the Iron Throne of the West and various nobles, etc. .

It was also while working unknowingly that something of great significance to Hugo and his regime came, which was the marriage between Hugo and Statina.

Statina represents the various local forces in Andas, as well as the support of the Eastern Andals. It can be said that the most important cornerstone of Hugo's regime is these Eastern Andals.

This matter has been being handled by Archbishop Lu Chen, the leader of the reorganized Eastern Church. Now, Bishop Lu Chen has roughly prepared the wedding that represents the union of the Western and Eastern Andals.

In Hugo's plan, this marriage must be completed before the arrival of the Norvos army. Through the marriage, the loyalty of the Andals in the East will be strengthened. Previously, he was worried about whether Lu Chen could carry out the wedding according to his timetable. It was prepared, but now it seems that it was too much.

"Lord Hugo, I have consulted all the ancient Andal books that can be found on both sides of the Narrow Sea. I have torn through various religious classics including the "Seven Star Bible", and I have also recorded some stories spread across the Andals. , I can assure you that I can come up with a ceremony that can be called 'Andas tradition'."

When mentioning the results of his work to Hu Ge, Bishop Lu Chen had pride and joy on his face. As a church person, there is nothing more satisfying than seeing the rituals he unearthed become routines that have lasted for dozens, hundreds or even thousands of years. He was excited.

The former slave owner's words were not over yet. He continued, "However, although I believe in the Seven Gods, I am also a father and I also have my own selfish motives. Lord Hu Ge, I hope that if my useless son cannot Follow your footsteps, and let him be the bishop of Elysium."

Hu Ge is taking care of his clothes with the help of two servants. He is wearing a set of clothes with white as the main color and beautiful stripes embroidered with gold thread. The white cloak on his shoulders is pressed with a seven-pointed star badge. God's favor The current dress looks like the King of the Hill described in the "Seven Stars Bible", but the main body of the clothing is still Westeros style.

Gleicher spoke very well. Although the money was donated to the Eastern Church of the Seven Gods, this gesture was very useful to Hugo. Hugo couldn't help but feel relaxed, but this relaxation only lasted for a while, and he soon became tense again. , Hugo will always be more vigilant when facing Gretchen.

"Then let Gretchel come in." Hugo gestured to the two servants at the same time. These well-trained servants retreated in a tacit understanding. When they left, Gretlcher walked in.

"Lord Hugo, first of all, I congratulate you on your marriage to Miss Statina." Gleicher bowed slightly exaggeratedly, "To celebrate your wedding, I brought you a gift."

"Lord Hugo." Just as Hugo stood waiting for the ceremony to begin, little Gleicher's voice came in. Hugo could hear some anger in the boy's tone, "My father is coming to see you. you."

Gretchel's tone was full of piety. If Hugo didn't know what kind of person he was, he might really be confused by his series of performances. Of course, he wouldn't see it all. The emotions are revealed. The so-called life is like a play, isn't it that you play me and I play you?

"As you command, I'll go get busy."

He would never forget what the former slave owner had done and what he had done. Hugo would never be at ease with such a person. When he gave a gift, he must have some requirements.

After the servants took care of the clothes, Hu Ge took a good look at himself in front of the big mirror. He was very satisfied with his current dress, which was full of the majesty of domination. Even the current style and clothes were all flowery. It took a lot of time to take care of it. Apart from anything else, it took a lot of time to make the clothes so slim that he didn't dare to sit down.

Bishop Lu Chen accepted the order and left with excitement in his voice. The ceremony he was going to preside over next was his own effort, so he was full of energy. Through this wedding, he could gain so much, no matter what. This is true both now and in future generations.

"We are very grateful for your selfless contribution, and may the Seven Gods shine on your future." Hugo said in an official tone, and then did not intend to directly ask Gretchen what he wanted. He wanted to see what the former slave owner would do next. explain.

As if feeling the pressure from Hugo, Gleicher also immediately talked about the origin of this wealth, "This is a wealth that I prepared for failure. Now, I will dedicate it to the Eastern Church of the Seven Gods." , as some small compensation for my endless sins, and also to contribute to Lord Hu Ge’s great cause.”

As Gleicher spoke, he took out a piece of parchment from his arms and carefully presented it in front of Hugo. What was recorded on it was a fortune that made Hugo very excited, and Hugo was secretly thinking about it. After being frightened, he did not speak immediately. He just looked at Gleicher and put pressure on the former slave owner.

"Gleicher, you must have something very important to see me at this time." Hugo looked at the former slave owner who had made him sigh many times and said, there was no way he would come to see him for no reason.

"Okay, Master Lu Chen, I understand. Now please continue with the wedding. I want to ensure that there will be no trouble in this wedding."

I don’t know what the former slave owner is planning, Hugo thought, trying to find the emotion on that face that always felt gloomy, but it was a pity that Gleicher didn’t look like his moody and angry face. Son, Hugo can't see anything.

"As a devout believer in the Seven Gods, Lord Hugo, I also want to make a request to you. Although the land of peace is already under the seven-pointed star, due to the rule of the evil slave owners of Pentos, the people on this land have been destroyed. The Seven Gods Religion has been greatly damaged, and many churches have been abandoned. In order to rebuild the faith, I am willing to invest in building a grand Seven Gods Church as the future faith center of Elysium."

Finally, this guy finally spoke out his thoughts. Hu Ge felt a sense of relief. He knew what he wanted, and nothing would be a problem next.

"Little Gretchel has just entered the Knights of the Seven Stars. Gretl, are you going to pave the way for him so early?" After figuring out what the former slave owner wanted to do, Hugo's tone softened a little. , although this guy is so difficult to deal with, at this moment, he is essentially a father who is busy for future generations.

The so-called Knights of the Seven Stars is the military order established by Hugo directly under his own. As the actual ruler of Andas, Hugo must of course have a knightly order directly under his own. As the second knighthood to be recognized and ennobled by Hugo, the Knights of the Seven Stars naturally attracted a large number of knights to join. After Hugo briefly screened them, they were included in the knighthood. Now the knighthood has It expanded to three hundred people - all knights.

Little Gleicher was also thrust into the Knights by Hugo. He was made a knight by Hugo himself some time ago. Becoming a knight and entering the Knights made this kid excited for a long time.

In this knighthood, there are many situations like Little Gleicher. The Lords of Andal sent their children to join the knights one after another, providing Hugo with protons in disguise - as for the knights Regarding the issue of celibacy, the Knights of the Seven Stars has a very flexible withdrawal mechanism.

Faced with Hugo's question, Gleicher's face showed exhaustion. Most of the time, Hugo wouldn't believe Gleicher's emotions, because who knows if this is this guy. It was pretending, but this time, Hu Ge believed it was true.

"I only have this one son."

Gretcher only said this, but he said everything else. Hugo nodded and said nothing, just letting Gretcher leave. He already understood.

In his heart, Hugo also had some different emotions. Why did his father in this life die so early? Although he left some things for him, compared with Gleicher here, it was really... It’s not enough.

However, this emotion only lasted for a short while. Hu Ge had achieved a great future in the East, and he was not jealous of a kid who enjoyed the protection of his parents.

Next, Hu Ge continued to look at himself in the mirror to see if there was anything wrong with his clothes. To be honest, he was not nervous about the wedding. He didn’t know how many big scenes he had experienced along the way, and he even witnessed them in person. He saw the sight of the seven gods blessing him.

To be honest, his interest in this wedding is very low. In comparison, he is more interested in having sex at night...

.

Statina looked at herself again in front of the mirror and slowly exhaled from her mouth. Facing the upcoming wedding, she was very nervous.

Although she understands that this is a transaction, no matter what, it is her wedding and a necessary ceremony to complete the exchange of interests. After this ceremony is completed, both she and Hu Ge will get huge help from it.

However, she still has some other thoughts. To be honest, Hu Ge is not her ideal husband. When she first met Hu Ge, she felt that although he was young, his years of living in the open made him look like a young man. He looks much older than his actual age.

But, victory solved all problems. After Hugo won the entire Andas, her dissatisfaction with Hugo's appearance disappeared. What's more, what she needed was just such a spouse, one who could protect her.

Statina did not want to get involved in the storm called politics. Her initial idea was just to live her own life. Politics had nothing to do with her. Then, she was found by her father who abandoned her mother. Then she was packaged as the saint of Andas.

The period when she acted as a saint under the control of her father was the darkest time in her life. Although she could see devout pursuit and worship of herself everywhere, Statina never indulged in it because she understood that these people She was never worshiped by Statina, but by an idol called the Saint of the Valley. This idol was blessed by the Seven Gods and could lead the Andals to victory - but she knew that she couldn't do it. A puppet dancing under a conductor's baton.

Moreover, she also heard from her father the plan to deal with her. She, the saint, was just a bait thrown by Pantos to attract the dissatisfied Andals and then massacre them.

As for myself, the tool for carrying out massacres, no one will care about me after all this is over and my reputation is ruined. I will either become a toy of the powerful or go to a monastery and be locked up in a monastery for the rest of my life. What is even more terrifying is that the two may happen at the same time. occur.

So Statina decided to resist. Even if she died because of it, she couldn't be like a poor actor who performed on the stage and left in embarrassment after the performance.

She made a huge gamble for this, but fortunately everything was worth it. However, she was still very worried before meeting the commander of the expeditionary force with the same name as the King of the Hills. However, fortunately, everything went as she wished. .

Although she was subsequently sent to Ge Duohe and pushed herself out of the center of power, Statina never cared about it. She was forced to enter this world and became the symbol of the saint. Why does the carrier care about these powers?

And she also understood that these people were never for her, just because she could gather the Eastern Andals.

Even though the Andal lords wanted to see her one after another, she chose to refuse visitors behind closed doors. She did not want to continue to be the so-called saint who wandered on the tip of a knife. If she wanted to land safely, the safest way was undoubtedly She is marrying the adventurer who came from the west and is known as the one favored by the gods.

They are all selling their own value, so why choose the one that makes you safer?

Statina was in a trance thinking about all this, and before she knew it, the maid came to tell her that the wedding had begun.

The saint arranged her white dress. The dress made of oriental silk and the blond hair of the Andals made her look like a "girl". Then accompanied by the maid, she walked towards In the waiting room, her husband Hugo was already there.

On Hugo's face, Statita saw an emotion she was very familiar with, which was the desire for her body, and it made Statina smile. This was good, this was very good.
