In the Name of the Queen

She is here.

The accompanying historian had a calm face and silently recorded the Queen's itinerary.

The beautiful and glorious Queen Sylph Sussex York arrived in the loyal Hansa City on September 21, 1794.

The green-leafed five-petal white rose flag fluttered in the streets and alleys, the salute roared twenty-one times, and the red carpet stretched all the way from the city gate to the central square.

Caesar Roland personally led overseas officials to welcome her ten miles out of the city.

When the Queen lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage, waving to her subjects, the cheers were deafening.

There was no pre-arranged support, all true feelings were revealed.

Roland dared to guarantee with his personality, at least he didn't do it.

He smiled and looked at Sylph, who was as dazzling as the sun, and sighed in his heart.

When they left the imperial capital, they could not be said to be stray dogs, but at least they were in a mess.

However, when Sylph came to Hansa City again, everything changed.

She is now a powerful monarch with complete imperial power.

She dealt with disloyal opponents.

She guided the development of emerging industries such as industry, commerce, education, and finance.

She personally opened up new territories for the empire.

Thinking of these achievements, Roland, as the man standing behind the queen, also felt proud.

Sif looked dignified but kind, waving to everyone gracefully and communicating with her subjects with gentle eyes.

Many people saw the queen's heroic figure for the first time, and they couldn't believe that there was such a beautiful girl in the world.

She was perfect, not like a human, but like the most beautiful race in the legend, the elves.

I don't know who took the lead, some people knelt on the ground excitedly, crying.

The herd effect took effect quickly, and soon more and more people knelt down, and they didn't even dare to look directly at the dazzling halo behind the queen.

Sif squinted her eyes and looked at Roland, a little confused.

Was the acting a bit too much?

Roland shrugged and responded with a smile.

There is no acting, it's all emotion.

The welcoming team and the spontaneous crowd totaled more than 30,000 people, but Sif and Roland's eyes could accurately lock on each other in the crowd.

They communicated with each other just by looking at each other.

Roland did not remind Sif how to deal with it.

It was another long-awaited quiz.

Sif's lips curled up. She was no longer afraid of the test because she knew the full-mark answer.

She stretched out her hands and made a gesture of lifting up, signaling everyone to stand up.

The kneeling crowd stood up again in a hurry.

Just as they were waiting for the Queen's speech with excitement and trepidation, Sif's clear voice floated away with the amplification magic circle and echoed over the city.

"Subjects, please remember that Sussex people do not need to kneel to anyone. I will defend your freedom and dignity!"

The whole audience was silent, and then a thunderous cheer broke out.

Someone sang God Save the Queen, and the melodious melody infected everyone present.

More and more people joined the chorus, and the singing became louder and louder, shaking the whole city.

Sif glanced at Roland with her peripheral vision.

Three points of pride mixed with seven points of joy of reunion after a long separation, gently swaying.

Roland raised his hands and clapped rhythmically.

The praise came from the heart.

This time it was really a perfect answer sheet, and it was more handsome than the lines he expected.

Although it was a bit inconsistent for a dictator to promise freedom and dignity to his subjects, everyone was willing to believe it, and that was enough.

The sound of the entry ceremony spread to a manor not far away.

Angelina, who was reading, was disturbed by the huge sound, so she had to put down her book, go out, climb onto the roof, and look through the telescope.

This was the reward for her charging the ice crystal blue ring.

Her field of vision was increased.

At this angle, she could just watch the entry ceremony from a distance.

Looking at Sif, who was as beautiful and proud as the moon surrounded by stars, Angelina bit her lip and complained silently.

Such a beautiful girl, it must be very attractive to be made into an ice sculpture.

I hope you can also laugh when facing Her Majesty Sofia.

A monarch with absolute power promises freedom and dignity to his subjects?

It's absurd.

How can she say such shameless words without any psychological burden? Who did she learn this from?

Angelina put down the telescope and remained silent.

Of course she knew who she learned it from, who else could it be, Roland.

This is your last romantic time, enjoy it.

Angelina jumped off the roof with a lack of interest, returned to the study under the vigilant eyes of the two maids, and continued to read.

She really wasted too much time in the past.

Her Majesty is right, no matter how busy you are, you must take time to read more.

Thinking that the fire of her life would be extinguished in the Queen's anger, Angelina inexplicably felt the urgency of time passing.

There is no time to waste, she still has many books to read.

The disputes and intrigues outside suddenly became particularly distant.

Among the books that can be borrowed, she likes astronomy and geography the most.

Unfortunately, she was confined here and could not go out to see this beautiful world.

Fortunately, she still had a telescope, and the night was her romantic time.

She could look up at the starry sky.

Compared with the vast starry sky, human beings are so small.

Whether it is Sif, Roland, or even the invincible Majesty Sophia, they are nothing compared to the stars in the sky.

Even the high and mighty goddess, what is she compared to the universe and the starry sky?

We are all ants, but some ants are slightly stronger.

Angelina, who had attained enlightenment, ignored the cheers outside and took out a book called "Basics of Astrology" from the bookshelf and studied it carefully.

Watch the stars tonight.

Angelina was going to watch the stars tonight, and Hansa City was going to welcome the Queen with a grand welcome ceremony tonight.

Some people were very excited and wanted to see something more exciting.

Rupert, the new director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, was also a member of the Queen's entourage.

The Queen's voyage was not as simple as a revisit to an old place. Sif did not plan to go back in the short term this time.

She outlined a development blueprint and handed over the local government affairs to the cabinet again.

It seemed to be back to square one, but it was completely different from when Edward was in office.

When Edward was in office, the imperial power and the prime minister's power clashed fiercely and kept pulling.

When Sif ascended the throne, the cabinet was no longer a political group competing with her for power, but became an office for her to handle domestic and foreign affairs.

She held absolute power.

Only Roland could share the core power from her, and everyone else was just a wage earner.

Rupert did not want to stay in the local area, so he took the initiative to ask to accompany her.

His reason was simple. He wanted to be closer to the enemy so that the accuracy and timeliness of the intelligence collected would be higher.

With such a reasonable reason, Sif could not refuse.

In fact, even if Rupert did not mention it, she would ask him to accompany her.

The war was about to start, and logistics and intelligence must come first.

If Rupert did not take the initiative to ask to accompany her, there was probably something wrong with his loyalty and ability.

But Sif did not notice the burning gossip spirit in Rupert's eyes.

His intelligence was updated very quickly.

He knew that Roland had captured Angelina and expelled the Vladimir Empire's army.

This intelligence was nothing. A keen master could always dig out the truth from the details.

He noticed that Roland had an extra ring on his left middle finger.

Ice crystal blue ring.

The wedding ring when Empress Sophia married the former emperor of the Vladimir Empire seven years ago.

At that time, she was still very young, beautiful and graceful, with a gentle smile and pure as water.

She stopped smiling after she killed her husband who abused her coldly with her own hands.

That wedding ring is a magic ring that has been passed down from generation to generation in Sophia's family.

It is called the Ice Crystal Blue Ring.

It is now worn on Roland's left hand, on the middle finger.

Noticing this detail, Rupert was so excited that he trembled all over.

Just based on this ring, the Sun can publish several special issues, which can break the sales record!

"Two or three things that must be said between the Queen's loyal minister and the Queen of the enemy country"

"My lover's lover is not my lover"

"Details exposed, she finally noticed the origin of the ring"

"Shocked, the outbreak of the world war was actually because of a ring"

Rupert's brain was trembling.

After the extreme trembling, he was immediately dominated by endless pain.

The Sun cannot be written.

In the past, he was just a carefree and idle aristocrat, a lazy aristocratic son, a media tycoon, and could gossip at will.

But not now.

He is now an important official of the empire and the director of the intelligence agency.

A high-ranking cabinet official, let his own tabloid report the Queen's scandal?

Is this okay? This is not good.

He is a respectable man now, and he must be a respectable man.

Rupert wanted to cry when he thought about not being able to expose this shocking discovery, but he still came.

Even if he couldn't expose it, at least he had to grab the front row to watch the show.

How would the Queen treat Roland? Would she be suspicious? Would she be angry?

He was very curious.

He had already provided the Queen with the most detailed information, and she could understand.

Rupert, who was dominated by the soul of eating melons, walked a little tiptoe.

He was the most absent-minded during the whole dinner.

He had been waiting for the Queen to ask questions, but unfortunately she didn't.

Just when he thought that this moment would not come and they would solve it privately, the Queen's clear voice still rang.

"Lord Roland, did you capture any special spoils after defeating Angelina?"

Sif's expression was calm, and her tone did not fluctuate at all.

Her eyes swept across the audience, paying attention to everyone's expressions.

Most people were looking forward to promotion and wealth, only Rupert was anxious like a monkey.

She wanted to laugh.

Although this guy knows intelligence, he doesn't understand human nature at all.

There is only one person in this world who deserves her complete trust, and that is Roland.

He is her world.

It's just a wedding ring. Even if Roland asked her to help propose to Sophia on the spot.

She would not blame Roland, and would accompany him to the new world.

For example, take a romantic trip to the Styx.

How could Roland betray?

Facing Sif's calm "casual" question, Roland strode to the center of the banquet hall, took the ring from his left hand, and held it high for everyone present to see.

"Here is the trophy, the ice crystal blue ring, the wedding ring of Queen Sophia."

The whole audience was silent.

Is this something that can be brought out?

No one knows what Roland wants to do, including Sif.

She knows that Roland must have his own reasons for doing this, and she is waiting.

Some people are silent, and some frown.

According to the custom of the Rurik people, wearing a wedding ring on the middle finger of the left hand means that you are about to say goodbye to being single.

Roland's behavior is really outrageous.

Porthos couldn't help but tease, "Governor, are you going to marry that woman?"

Of course, he wasn't trying to ruin Roland's plan, he was just reminding Roland to make his position clear as soon as possible so as not to cause misunderstandings.

Most of the people present knew what he meant and laughed along.

Sif also followed suit, "Lord Roland, although you have a distinguished position and great strength, it is almost impossible to marry Sophia. I'm afraid you have to marry into the family to have a chance."

Under everyone's gaze, Roland stepped forward step by step, his face calm.

"Your Majesty, I have made countless contributions to the empire. I would like to ask you to prepare a grand wedding for me that matches my status. I want to propose to the noble woman who is far away in the sky, has outstanding temperament, is beautiful and brilliant, and has a status far higher than mine."

Wait, what is he talking about?

The whole audience was stunned, and the guests attending the banquet were dumbfounded.

If it is the adjective at the end, it can be Sif or Sophia, but what does far away in the sky mean?

Queen Sif is right in front of us.

Everyone is just joking, are you serious?

Sif's slightly red cheeks turned pale in an instant.

The blood in her body almost coagulated, and she was dumbfounded.

There is only one person who meets all the above qualifiers, Sophia.

Her lips trembled, and she tried hard to find reasons to comfort herself.

Roland definitely didn't fall in love with his enemy. He would never like a cold-hearted woman who murdered her husband. He just sacrificed himself for her survival.

That must be the case!

Her mind went blank, and she responded subconsciously and numbly:

"As you wish, is the person you are proposing to Sophia?"

The whole audience was silent.

A needle falling on the ground could make a deafening sound.

Just when the atmosphere was close to suffocation, Roland finally couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Hearing Sif's heartbroken voice, he felt a little distressed and a little angry.

You idiot, how could I be associated with that kind of woman.

Forget it, he couldn't guess the girl's mind, and it was normal for the girl to guess his mind.

Let's be honest and say it directly.

Roland walked forward slowly, his steps were steady, and his voice was firm.

"I once met the most beautiful girl in the world."

"I thought it was a dream."

"But she appeared in front of me."

"When my heartstrings were moved by her bright eyes, I finally realized that I had already fallen."

"Beautiful Miss Sylph, are you willing to come down from the clouds to the earth and walk through the journey of life with me, a mortal?"

Sylph was stunned.

"Far in the sky" turned out to be just an adjective?

She was so stupid that she actually forgot that Roland was the champion of the essay contest.

"Oh my God, the Queen is pregnant, who did it?" It turned out to be not fiction, but a fact.

Everyone suddenly realized.

Hey, Roland, this guy, just proposed to marry, but he had to go around in such a circle.

He is worthy of being a cultured person, even farting has to take a detour.

Sylph stood up and walked to the center of the banquet hall.

Her eyelashes were trembling, and tears had wet the corners of her eyes without knowing when.

She walked at the same speed as Roland.

Their steps were very steady, moving towards each other.

The speed of running in both directions is countless times faster than that of walking alone.

Because some roads cannot be walked by one person.

For example, love.

Sif raised her slender fingers and went forward.

The ice crystal blue ring was accurately placed on her slender ring finger, adaptively adjusting the size, and gently wrapped around her fair fingers.

She nodded with sobs, closed her eyes, and responded softly: "I do."

Under the gaze of everyone, Roland hugged her hot and soft waist and leaned over to kiss her.
