Chapter 549: wedding venue
Naturally, Prett and Jenny were completely unaware of these things that happened in the shadows.
They rode the incomparably steed celestial white horse and crossed half of the city of Terrera at brisk paces, from the Marquis of Wesskes Palace in the upper city to a square in the lower city.
Generally speaking, the wedding of nobles, especially the big nobles at the level of the marquis, will choose to arrange the wedding venue in the upper town square. The father and daughter of the Marquis of Weskes also considered this at first. Of course Pratt would not object, and they had even prepared a plan. However, after the traversers came in large numbers, they rejected the plan for the simple reason that the square was too small.
"What's the point of setting up a dojo in a snail shell?" Several people in charge of the venue design said in unison, with the same attitude, "We need a wedding venue as large as possible to fully demonstrate our heritage and taste!"
They persuaded the parties, and it was settled.
It's just that Prett and the others just walked away, and these guys fought hard to argue over whose concept the venue was designed according to. If it wasn't for the president Sanyu rushing to mediate, I'm afraid they would have to use the most traditional method of transmigrators to decide the winner.
What is "the most traditional method for traversers"? Of course, everyone will cut each other with real knives and real guns, and hang the competitors back to the castle, and the last person left is the winner.
The designers quarreled and adjusted constantly. The final design plan was finally finalized, and the vigorous construction began.
The scale of their construction is also very large. In order to avoid being seen, they directly covered the venue with illusion. From the outside, the venue seemed to be covered by a huge curtain. There were rumblings and dings, and I didn't know what they were doing. On the contrary, the city defense officer and the archbishop of the Church of the God of Light go in to visit or supervise from time to time, and each time it is really interesting.
However, the mouths of these two are very tight, and they are determined not to say what is interesting.
The city defense officer of Trela City is a prince, who inherits the title passed down from the founding of the country. In terms of generation, contemporary kings need to call him uncle. In front of this serious uncle, both Princess Feisna and Prince Zion were polite and polite. He refused to speak, and even His Majesty the King was inconvenient to ask questions.
Not to mention the archbishop of the Church of the God of Light, the priests are dead brains. Not to mention that no one can force him, even if someone can force him, he would rather stab himself to death than reveal other people's secrets.
Back then, when Sword Saint Frost went to Mulandana to track down the clues about Panda the Dragon Slayer, Archbishop Mulandana of the Church of the Suffering God committed suicide and refused to answer a word. Before committing suicide, he also gathered all the people who had been in contact with Panda that he could, and then cast a spell to make them forget about Panda completely.
Asking is impossible to ask, and breaking in and peeking will offend people, so in the city of Trela, many people are very curious about the specific situation of this venue.
Of course, it is mainly the middle and small aristocrats who are curious. The big aristocrats have said that style is the most important thing. What style can a wedding held in Xiacheng have? Don't look at it!
Of course, there are also some great nobles who are willing to attend the ceremony, mainly the local nobles who have always been good-natured, and those who are relatively tough in the royal capital. Generally speaking, these two are in the minority, so they are specially arranged for the great nobles. There were very few spectators on the viewing platform.
Fortunately, the most important audience is here - of course, this is the eldest princess Fisna Trera. As a friend of Jenny Weskers, she also came, but she was not on the viewing platform, but entered the venue as a family and friend to participate in the celebration.
At this moment, she was wearing a light ordinary dress and waited at the entrance of the venue with Semiramis. Seeing the arrival of the wedding party from a distance, they happily greeted them and picked up the bride immediately.
Pret also turned over and dismounted, looking at the front still shrouded in illusion, like a square covered with a huge curtain, a little uneasy.
Tradition in Terrera requires the groom to walk through a long corridor adorned with thorns, while the bride waits for him among the flowers—meaning the hardships of life before marriage, as well as the beauty of marriage. After the two met, they walked through the guests hand in hand, walked to the ceremony platform in the sound of everyone's blessing, and then the local lord (or the representative sent by the lord) presided over the ceremony, which symbolized the recognition and blessing of the people and the lord. Of course, there are also some couples who believe in the same God and invite the priests of the church to preside over the ceremony, which means that their marriage is recognized and blessed by God.
In many places, who will preside over the wedding ceremony is also a rather acute question. The struggle between kingship and theocracy is often manifested in such a way as a needle hidden in cotton.
There is no setting for this aspect in the game, but according to the wedding ceremonies that the travelers have seen in the people in the past few years, it seems that the lower-level people are, the more inclined they are to invite priests to preside over the ceremony. The strategy team once said worriedly that maybe everyone will see a big story that has never happened in the game - the desperate struggle between theocracy and the king, but most traversers are not worried about this.
The days of peace in this world are running out. In the stormy struggles in the future, theocracy and kingship will have to unite and cooperate closely in order to tide over the difficulties. If you want to fight to the death, let's wait until the dragon of doom is killed...
According to the original intention of the Marquis of Weskers, he wanted to invite His Majesty the King to send a representative (mostly His Royal Highness) to preside over his daughter's wedding. But the traversers are unanimously opposed, and their reason is very simple-the one who presides over the wedding should be a well-respected elder.
Marquis of Weskers didn't insist much on this issue, after all, the traversers had a point. The host of the wedding, after all, should be a little older.
So he agreed to the requests of the traversers, and the host of the host was handed over to the other party.
... Of course, there is also the persuasive effect of the charm spell. If it weren't for the power of magic, how could the Marquis of Weskes, who is a bit stubborn, let go so easily!
(Who is going to officiate my wedding?)
Pret pondered for a while, but he couldn't think of it, so he simply didn't want to. He stepped forward and walked into the venue.
On the viewing platform, Prince Zion looked at the venue still shrouded in magic with a smile, thinking the same question in his heart.
(Who will be the officiant of the wedding? Who is higher than the king's messenger? Is it the archbishop of a certain church, or a legendary powerhouse?)
(Hopefully it wasn't Weskers' own idea, otherwise, it's in trouble!)
