Chapter 59 Wedding Celebration

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Henry brought everyone to the gate of the villa, and the Flame Fist mercenaries who were waiting here saw the deed and completed the handover with him and left. Hawke briefly looked around and said to him, "Count, at least six servants, twelve maids, a butler and two cooks are needed here. In addition, such a large garden also needs a gardener to take care of it."

Henry thought for a moment. "Then do as you said and try to find some reliable people. I don't want my villa to be inserted into other people's eyes and ears."

Hawk nodded slightly. "I will pay attention to this point. In addition, I have already bought some common eagles and kestrels for the raptors you want. They have been put into cages and placed in the cabin." Since there are no servants for the time being, everyone has to do it in the kitchen by themselves. Had some simple food for lunch.

In the afternoon, Duke Anta Silver Shield came to the villa, stepped forward and hugged Henry and his mother. "Good afternoon, Ms. Lily, and you, my dear Earl. Why didn't you see any servants here? Didn't the Council prepare for you?"

Henry nodded helplessly. "You really hit the Duke, but I have already asked Hawke to hire someone. Fortunately, I don't need to live here for too long. This villa will be my temporary foothold in the city in the future." He said Bring the Duke into the living room. After everyone was seated, Amy served everyone a cup of tea. Henry frowned, because the so-called tea in Faerun was actually a kind of mint leaves. After they've been brewed they also add some mess that makes the whole drink have a pungent taste. He vowed that when he returned to his territory, he would cultivate tea trees on the earth, and then sell them all over the world to get rid of this disgusting thing.

The Duke closed his eyes and took a sip and exclaimed, "It's really delicious. It's a supreme pleasure to have a refreshing and pungent taste passing through your throat." Henry suppressed his lunch as much as possible, and said out of conscience : "Thank you for your compliment, I also like this drink very much."

Anta Yindun took another sip and put down his teacup. "Count, I think we can discuss the celebration of the wedding. I know you are in a hurry to return to the territory, so how about we speed up the progress and hold it in three days?"

Henry thought for a while and asked, "Is there only a few days of preparation time?"

The Duke smiled. "With the strength of the Silver Shield family, these are not a problem at all. I have already submitted an application to the parliament and got the approval. The celebration will be held at the Duke's mansion. As for the food and the venue, these should be taken care of by the woman's family and you don't need to worry about it. And now you are at the time when the voice is the highest, holding the wedding during this period is good for the reputation of our two families."

Henry lowered his head and thought that because there are many gods in the whole continent, no priests will be invited to witness the wedding, because the husband and wife often believe in different gods. The whole wedding process is probably to invite some relatives and friends to have a big meal, and then everyone will be a witness together to be married. It shouldn't be a big problem to prepare a large banquet and reception in three days.

He raised his head to the Duke and said, "No problem, let's proceed in three days."

Anta Yindun stroked his beard. "It's been so long. By the way, my dear Earl, you still have to order a gorgeous dress for yourself. You must know that you are a high-ranking nobleman. It is not very good to wear a mage's robe at the wedding."

At this time, Lily stood up and said to the Duke, "Don't worry, I will personally order a beautiful dress for him to ensure that he will not be rude."

The Duke bowed slightly to Henry's mother: "Then please ma'am, dress up your son beautifully. I will take my leave today, and we will see you at the wedding ceremony in three days." After speaking, he stood up and took The entourage left the villa.

After seeing the guests leave, the mother stood up and walked to Henry. "I didn't expect you to get married so soon. Mom is so happy for you. Now stand up and let me measure your figure, so that the dress will look good." Henry sighed, but he didn't mind at all. Don't want to wear those ridiculous gowns.

Then he stood up and said to his mother, "Mom, I'm actually fine wearing a mage's robe. You see, my mage's robe has several powerful spells attached to it, and it's much more expensive than a dress."

Lily used a rope to roughly measure his height and arm length. "Henry, you are going to get married instead of fighting. No expensive magic item is more flattering than a beautiful dress."

At this time, the younger sister also ran over and started to make trouble. She said loudly to her mother: "Mom, I also want a beautiful dress."

Mother smiled and patted her head. "Of course dear, when the time comes, mom will definitely dress you up like a princess to attend your brother's wedding." Henry closed his eyes, he had already given up struggling and thought about it, anyway, it would be like this once in a lifetime.

In the evening, Hawke came back and told Henry that the servant had been hired and would arrive at the villa tomorrow for work. Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and now Henry is changing into the uncomfortable dress under the supervision of his mother. The whole set of clothes is somewhat similar to the European style of the fifteenth century on earth. A wide-sleeved tights with buttons, a half-length folded top and coat, and silk stockings are inserted into a pair of leather shoes. This attire made him extremely uncomfortable, and the most terrifying thing was that the housekeeper in charge of etiquette even asked him to twist his buttocks when he walked, saying that it would make him more attractive.

If it wasn't for his mother still watching him, he would send this guy to death with a fireball. After he was dressed, he got on a specially customized float and rushed along the street to the Duke's Mansion, attracting countless passers-by along the way. Ten minutes later, the carriage arrived at its destination, and the butler sitting in front stepped down and opened the door for Henry. "Your Excellency Earl, your wedding scene has arrived, please get out of the car."

Henry took a deep breath and stepped out of the carriage with the mentality of going to the execution ground. "See that our handsome groom has arrived, let's applaud now." Anta Yindun said to the guests who came to watch the ceremony.

Henry walked up to the Duke. "Thanks, you know I'm suffocating right now. This dress makes me very uncomfortable."

The Duke laughed out loud, and he patted Henry on the shoulder. "Don't worry, I was more nervous than you when I married Brila. In fact, it doesn't matter. The whole process is to take the opportunity to meet people from other families, accept their blessings and treat everyone to a big meal. You have to relax , Many people came here to see the heroes of Belgost, so don't let them down."

Henry nodded and sorted out his clothes, then followed Anta Silver Shield into the Duke's Mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he heard huge cheers from the hall, and then a large number of flower petals were scattered from the second floor by the girls. Mrs. Brila came over with Shikodi in full dress,

She said to Henry: "Your Excellency the handsome Earl, I will now hand over Shikodi to you and hope that you will have a happy life in the future." After she finished speaking, she handed over the girl's hand,

Henry took Shikodi's hand and replied: "Please rest assured, Your Excellency the Duke, I will not disappoint his trust." After speaking, he took Shikodi's hand and walked towards the center of the hall.

Henry came to the middle of the hall, took the girl's hand and bowed deeply to everyone, and then he said to everyone: "First of all, I would like to thank you for coming to witness my wedding, secondly, thank you Lord Duke for your trust in me, and finally thank you My mother raised me. Now I declare the wedding ceremony to begin! Please enjoy all kinds of food and wine.” After a burst of warm applause, everyone began to disperse and gather in twos and threes to start socializing and socializing .

Anta Yindun came over and said to the newlyweds: "Bless you, Shikodi, my dear sister, I hope you will become the Earl's good helper and build a foundation for his family."

Shikodi returned the gift. "Thank you for your blessing brother. I will be a qualified wife."

The Duke turned his head and said to Henry: "Okay Earl, now give your wife to Brila first, and I will take you to meet some new friends."

Henry kissed his new wife lightly and said to her, "Wait for me here for a while, and I'll be back soon."

Shikodi nodded to her husband. "Go ahead, Brila is with me here." After speaking, the Duke took Henry to the second floor of the hall.

Here Henry found that each duke had formed a small circle, and each of them had the support of a large chamber of commerce behind them. Merchants formed alliances with dukes to defend their own interests and expand their business and sphere of influence, while dukes used the funds provided by merchants to form armies to expand their political influence. After Anta Yindun led him around for a long introduction, Henry also understood who would be his ally and who would be his competitor in the future. The celebration lasted for a whole day, and the guests did not leave until midnight.

When leaving, the Duke whispered to Henry: "Count, I wish you a happy wedding night."

Brila patted her husband with a smile, and Skodi blushed. After returning to the villa, the butler sent everyone back to the room. He said to Henry and his wife: "My lord, I have already arranged everyone. Please rest assured that no one will disturb you tonight." After finishing speaking He quit.

Shi Kodi sat on the bed and rubbed the corner of her clothes nervously. Henry walked over and gently lifted her chin and kissed her. The girl responded fiercely. Then Henry took off his clothes and kissed his wife's lips all the way down, and soon the couple rolled on the bed. After a while, the girl let out a scream, which slowly turned into bursts of screams. The butler nodded in satisfaction when he heard it outside the door, turned and left. It wasn't until early morning that Henry fell asleep with the tired Shikodi in his arms. At noon the next day, he slowly opened his eyes, and the sunlight had already filled the entire room.
