【Gaolan】Political Marriage

Probably before the end of the Age of Gods, there were many small countries on the British Isles, and the northern barbarians invaded from the sea, and the war continued.King Arthur drew out the sword in the stone chosen by heaven, fought for ten years, and finally unified the human kingdom of Britain, built the city of chalk called Camelot, and brought the islands back to peace.

King Arthur married Guinevere as queen, happy and happy, and the country was peaceful. Although he had never given birth to an heir, it was helpless because both husband and wife were women.Fortunately, the king's sister Morgan had five children with her deceased husband, King Ludt, all of whom had grown up to be excellent knights. Among them, the eldest son Gawain was particularly outstanding. Whether it was martial arts, leadership, or the virtue of modesty, he was the most outstanding knight in Britain. The whole territory has won unanimous praise from nobles and commoners.King Arthur regarded him as his heir, and was extremely fond of this nephew.

Since ancient times, the marriages of princes are not involuntary, and so is Gao Wen.He is 26 years old and has yet to find a suitable wife.At that time, on the land of the British Isles, there was still strong magic power in the air. Humans lived side by side with elves, giants, dragons, and monsters, and conflicts occurred from time to time.Morgan is the king's sister, a rare magician, and a fearsome witch.She spoke to King Arthur, suggesting that Camelot marry the Land of the Lake, establish an alliance, and marry an elf girl from the lake as Gawain's official wife.

The country of the lake where the elves live has always been friendly with Camelot. The sword of victory held by the king and the sword of victory of Gawain's wheel are also gifts from the fairies in the lake.Therefore, Wang readily accepted his sister's suggestion, ignored the mourning of the court magician (if there is any rift between Camelot and the Land of the Lake, it must be because Merlin is too frivolous in the relationship between men and women), and wrote a letter to Vivienne, the nymph of the lake, begged for her nephew, Gawain, to marry the elf's bride.

Seven days later, Asuka sent a reply, saying that the bride's carriage team had set off.

Things went so unbelievably well that Camelot immediately fell into a premarital phobia similar to War Story.Should the wedding ceremony be carried out according to the tradition of the elves or the way of humans?Human words have about five beliefs and styles to choose from.The wedding ceremony of the heir to the British co-lord, the seven clans and the princes from all directions will definitely come to watch the ceremony. If these people do not arrange well, it will be a political event, and at the same time, Camelot's majesty must be displayed.There is also the wedding ceremony, and every married man and woman seems to be suddenly full of authority and interest in this matter.As for the basic necessities of life for the bride after she comes to Camelot... Ah, those things can be considered after marriage...

In short, except for the groom himself, everyone else seems to be fully engaged in the preparations for this grand, show-filled wedding, and they are too busy.As for Gao Wen himself?He has always shown a silent and submissive attitude towards this marriage. Although he is not very interested, it is after all that he wants to marry a girl whose appearance, name and age are unknown (yes, whether it is due to negligence or the elves) Reserved, or mysterious avoidance, the bride's name was not mentioned in the reply), and with heart to heart, everyone can understand his panic or pretending to be calm.This does not affect the preparation process of the wedding. After all, the political marriage of the royal family has never had much to do with the wishes of the bride and groom.Gawain only needs to wash and dress up on the day when the bride's send-off team arrives, put on the polished white lily armor, take his holy sword of the sun, ride the elf horse Greengret, and stand at the gate of Camelot Just go and wait.

The flying birds that went back and forth reported the bride's approach every day, and finally, the day came when the send-off team was supposed to arrive at Camelot.

In order to show the sincerity of Camelot, the groom, Gao Wen, together with his brothers and clans and several local princes who participated in the wedding, waited outside the gate of Camelot in full armor early in the morning.The May sun was scorching hot, and sweat trickled down the chinks of the knight's armor. The horse snorted anxiously and shook its mane. It was not until the sun rose to the zenith that they saw the rising sun on the road at the end of their vision. Soot from horseshoes.

The elf's cavalry was indeed different.Twelve knights wore pure white armor, and twelve girls wore snow-white veils. They rode 24 snow-white horses and escorted the carriage of the bride's dowry.The leading knight was even taller and handsome, with an extraordinary appearance.He has bright purple hair and eye pupils that are rare in the world, coupled with silver-white armor and blue cloak, as if showing the identity of an elf, it looks too pure and beautiful.

Gao Wen's eyes were unconsciously attracted by the purple-haired knight. As the team approached, he found that the other party was still young, with a somewhat immature look on his handsome face, but he was tall. It is estimated that it is half a head taller than myself.

Should it be said that it is from the kingdom of elves?There was such a beautiful knight, Gawain stared at him ecstatically, he didn't even notice that there were whispers in the team around him.

"Hey, Gawain." Mordred, the youngest of the five Orkney brothers, pushed her eldest brother, "Look, there is no carriage for the bride across the way."

"Ah...huh?"

Gawain came back to his senses and took a closer look. Among the convoy on the opposite side, there was indeed no carriage for the bride herself.The twelve girls on horseback were all wearing the same gauze skirts, and it was impossible to tell which one would be his bride.Could it be that this is another test of elves?Gawain frowned slightly, and immediately kicked Mordred to tell her to shut up.

At this time, the team on the opposite side had already walked only a few dozen steps away from them. The twelve knights, twelve girls, and the carriage with the dowry all stopped. Only the leading purple-haired knight stepped forward. He got off his horse in front of Gao Wen.

"I met you for the first time. I wonder if you are the son of King Luther and Queen Morgan of Orkney, nephew and heir of King Arthur, Knight of the Sun, Your Highness Gawain?"

The purple-haired knight was courteous and thoughtful, and his voice was very pleasant, soft and deep. Although he still had the youthful innocence, he unconsciously exuded a charming aura.Gao Wen also hurriedly got off his horse and returned his salute.It would be great if the knight who sent off his relatives could stay in Camelot for a while, he even thought with a bit of a naughty taste, just wait to see the group of boring ladies break their heads for him.

"It's the first time we meet. This is Gao Wen. May I ask your name?"

The young knight seemed overjoyed, showing a bright and innocent smile, then he knelt down on one knee in front of Gawain, held his hands on his chest, bowed his head and gave him a deep salute.

"I am Lancelot of the Lake, son of the elves. At the request of King Arthur, I came to Camelot from the Land of the Lake to be, to be... your wife."

WTF? ? ? ?

If elves could read minds, Lancelot must have heard the roaring waves of the welcoming procession on the opposite side.In fact, the dumbfounded Gawain had already heard Mordred laugh wildly for the first time—"Ahahahahahahahaha Gawain! Your wife is—"

Gao Wen instinctively swung his fist back again, blocking Mordred's mouth.
