Colin pushed open the mahogany door separating the bedroom from the front hall, and saw a figure of Miao Man sitting in front of the dressing table.
The golden hair is rolled into a loose and casual style. The silver mirror of the dressing table reflects the exquisite face. With the purple silk nightdress, it highlights the hazy and lazy charm, which makes people eager to see her turn around. The moment.
"Have you finished talking?"
Vera turned around, with a sweet smile at the corner of her mouth, and tenderness in her blue crystal eyes.
For a while, the whole bedroom seemed to be brightened up.
"Yes." Colin walked in, unbuttoning the collar of his dress, "Every time I chat with Lord Marquis, I benefit a lot."
"What are you talking about?"
"About loyalty and faith."
Vera tilted her head, the smile on her face narrowed.
Upon seeing this, Colin thought she had misunderstood, and explained: "It's not what you think, Lord Marquis is just sharing his own beliefs and understanding of loyalty with me. I hope I can be inspired by it and find my beliefs. "
Vera's expression eased a bit, but she still looked at Colin seriously: "Actually, I always feel that my father has been too tired in this life."
Colin took off his coat, sat on the edge of the bed, looked at his wife's shining eyes, and smiled: "So, you don't agree with Marquis Garcia's lifelong faith?"
Vera shook her head, frowned her eyebrows slightly, and said, "Father, he has too much on his back, and so does his adoptive father. I know that they are all very good people, even great in a sense, but I don’t I hope you become like them."
Seeing Vera's gentle eyes, Colin felt a deep warmth in his heart, with a smile from the heart on his face, and said:
"Don't worry, I won't become like them. I have my own principles and things that I cherish. These are all things that are worthy of my protection."
To be honest, although Colin admired the dedication of the Marquis Garcia, he did not realize that he could be as noble as the other party.
Moreover, he also felt that whether it was the Marquis of Garcia or the previous Duke of St. Hild, they were a bit too extreme.
He even hopes that he can live comfortably in this life, without being swayed by any power or noble goals.
Of course, it may seem easy to do this, but in fact it is extremely difficult.
If he didn't have enough strength, with Colin's current status and control power, it would be impossible for him to want time to be peaceful.
Therefore, in order to achieve this goal, Colin must control greater forces and gain greater power!
Vera smiled sweetly, got up, and walked towards Colin with an elegant step. The openings on both sides of the nightdress showed flawless legs, slender and straight, white and soft.
She walked in front of Colin, supported his shoulders, bent her right leg and knelt on the edge of the bed, her curvy neck was bent downwards, she bent down on her beautiful face, with a small smile on her mouth, her eyes sparkling with enthusiasm:
"Then am I someone worthy of your protection?"
"As my wife, of course you are!" Colin supported Vera's slender waist, feeling the warmth and softness in his hands, and said affirmatively.
Vera's eyes became misty, she lightly licked her gorgeous red lips, the charming style made Colin's heart hot, and she pulled the girl onto the big bed with a little force on her hand.
...
The soft sunlight in the morning shines through the crystal skylight at the top and enters the Knights Hall to form a pure beam of light.
The colorful glass reflects the dappled light and shadow, and the sculptures of the 14 paladins of the Saint Hild family stand on both sides of the hall, as if watching the figure in the hall through the barrier of time.
Wearing the Viscount's gown, Colin walked into the beam of light, knelt down on one knee in front of the steps, and at the same time raised the blade of judgment above his head.
In front of him, Vera, who was also dressed up, took the Judgment Blade solemnly, put the blade on Colin's shoulder, and said loudly:
"I, Willa St. Hild, in the name of the Duke of the North, canonized Colin Anglia as the Count Lord of the Glorious Empire. From today onwards, the Anglia Family is the hereditary Earl of the Glorious Empire."
Colin clasped his left hand on his chest, looked up at the charming eyes of his sweet wife, and said loudly:
"I, Colin Angele, I am willing to dedicate my loyalty to the respected Duke of the North, protect the people with my life, and return the Saint Hild family with glory, and I will live up to your entrustment and trust!"
Vera immediately returned the sword, and took out the earl's seal and dress from the attendant next to him and gave it to Colin.
At this point, the earl canonization ceremony of the Anglia family came to an end.
There was warm cheers and applause in the hall.
For this overly young Imperial Earl, although the nobles who came to watch the ceremony inevitably felt a little jealous, no one dared not be convinced.
Not to mention that Colin is the husband of the Duke of the North and the guardian of the North. He alone is worthy of the glory of the earl by virtue of his outstanding military exploits in the previous Northern Rebellion.
No one can deny that in just two years, the son of the once-obscured baron has become a prominent figure in the Northern Territory and even the empire.
Archbishop Adjani, wearing a white priest's robe, came to Colin, drew a holy emblem on her chest, showing a pure and kind smile, and said:
"May the Supreme Glory Lord guide your path!"
"Praise the Lord of Radiance!"
The eyes of the two met, perhaps only the person concerned could know the deep meaning.
Afterwards, all the nobles who came to watch the ceremony stepped forward to congratulate the newly promoted earl.
When it was the turn of the Cambenin Knights, Colin suddenly asked in a low voice: "Knight Cambenin, the Duke will appoint Fermi Knight as the new commander of the Golden Lion Army. You should know this, right?"
Cam Benin lowered his head and muttered, "I know, Lord Duke mentioned this to me before."
"Then you should also understand that this is not the Duke's original intention."
"I understand that this is the will of the royal family. Lord Duke need not feel embarrassed, I can understand..."
"No." Colin stretched out his hand to hold down the shoulders of Knight Cambenin, and said in a deep voice, "You are the Duke and the person I truly trust. Although Knight Fermi will become the commander of the Golden Lion Army, it doesn't mean it. The Duke really feels relieved to hand over this important army to him."
There was a lightness in the eyes of Knight Cambenin. He looked up at Colin and asked respectfully: "My Lord Earl, what do you want me to do?"
Colin smiled slightly and said: "Taking advantage of this opportunity to appoint a new army commander The Lord Duke is going to make a major adjustment to the officers of the Golden Lion Corps at all levels. As for how to adjust, I hope you Can give the Duke a suggestion."
With a move in the heart of the Knight Cambenin, he immediately understood Colin's meaning.
This is clearly to let him take the opportunity to plant his cronies in the Golden Lion Army!
In this way, even if the Fermi knight becomes the commander of the legion, he is only a polished commander. As long as the middle and lower-level officers of this army are all from the Knights of Cambenin, then he is the true "legal commander" of the Golden Lion Legion. !
After trying to understand this, the haze on Cambenin’s face disappeared immediately, only to hear him excitement in a low voice:
"Thank you Lord Duke for your trust, I will draw up a list for you!"
Colin smiled reassuringly, and patted Knight Campbellin on the shoulder again.
The Camberin knight saluted respectfully, and then stepped back.
