Imperial Crown.

Chapter 231 Wedding (Part )

The sun is rising and the sky is cloudless.

The road from Eagle Castle to the church had been swept clean long ago, and after being splashed with clean water, a layer of rose petals was laid on it.

The breeze blows, and the fragrance is so fragrant that people are intoxicated by it unconsciously.

People cheered Raven's name enthusiastically and congratulated the lord on his wedding.

To celebrate the Baron's wedding, every citizen from Eagle Territory to Snow Maple Territory received a reward worth 10 copper coins.

It's more than 10 copper coins. Raven has been in power for 3 years. The people are grateful for the benefits he has brought and are cheering from the bottom of their hearts.

Some people are happy, some people are unhappy.

Many young girls lost their dream lovers. The reserved ones were heartbroken, while the radical ones madly attacked the intercepting soldiers, screaming Raven's name.

Therefore, on both sides of the road, the Eagle Army, who had originally come only to add pomp to the wedding, had to form a human wall, and only then was order barely maintained.

The horse's hooves trampled on the flower path and arrived at the church door. Nancy's carriage could be seen in the distance.

The carriage stopped not far away, Raven got off the horse, and Nancy also got off with the help of Montreal.

There were bursts of low exclamations.

And as the two men stood at the door of the church, Montreal placed Nancy's hand in Raven's palm, and the exclamations became more frequent.

Because the beauty of the bride exceeded many people's imagination.

Nancy, in her wedding gown, showed none of her usual willful and capricious self.

She wore a plain crown on her head and a hazy white veil covering her face, which made her already beautiful face even more hazy and beautiful.

A blue ribbon, a symbol of purity, hung around her slender neck, drooping over her shoulders outlined by her wedding dress.

In the morning light, it was impossible to tell which was whiter, her hand or her clothes.

The wedding dress was carefully designed. It looked plain white at first glance, but under the light, as Nancy moved, it reflected a dazzling array of colors.

Bejeweled.

But this expensive and gorgeous wedding dress could not overshadow Nancy's brilliance at all.

The vitality that belongs only to a young girl emanated from her every move and gesture could be felt even by a blind person.

She was dressed in plain white, with only a pair of earrings reflecting a dazzling red. They were spoils of war from the Bloody Highlands, given to her by Raven, and became the finishing touch to her overall decoration.

Gently holding Nancy's hand, the soft and delicate touch made Raven's heart tremble.

Accompanied by the wedding march, the two walked hand in hand along the silver brick path, symbolizing holiness, happiness and perfection.

Montreal stood there, looking at his daughter's back. Even though there had been many disagreements before, he still took a deep breath, his eyes slightly red.

Gul'dan was behind him.

To be honest, due to his father's lack of attention, he couldn't say that he had much affection for his sister, let alone a deep brotherly love.

But as he watched her walking away, Gul'dan suddenly realized that the little girl who used to chase after him all day long had now grown up and was about to become a wife.

My heart suddenly felt sour, and I couldn't help but whisper, "Raven, please don't let her down..."

Our old friend Judra was also among the guests, with a complicated look on her face.

Early this morning, he sent his confidant to inquire and found out the specific amount of betrothal gifts and dowries from both parties.

It is no exaggeration to say that he was stunned for 5 minutes!

Including cash and miscellaneous goods, both parties spent nearly 30 gold coins.

One million gold coins!

Even if he uprooted his Ironforge and sold it off in bulk, it wouldn't fetch that high a price!
He had never seen so many gold coins in his life!

In addition, Raven also handed over the formula of Angel's Tears; and the Fox family generously gave up a piece of territory in exchange.

He smacked his lips, stared at Raven, and thought to himself, "Humph, you're so proud of yourself, but with the Griffith family curse on you, you only have 17 years left to live!"

Jealousy usually occurs between people of similar levels.

Now, Raven has far surpassed Judra in terms of strength, power and reputation, which makes him no longer have the desire to confront Raven, and his jealousy naturally disappears.

The reason for this idea is probably due to the mentality of "if you can't eat the fox, then say the grapes are sour".

Just as Judra was daydreaming, Raven and Nancy walked hand in hand to the statue of Apollo, the Lord of Light, where Archbishop Thomas had already been waiting.

He had a kind smile on his face, and he held some holy water in his hand and sprinkled it on the two people. The holy water rose and turned into golden light:
"At this sacred moment, another couple is married under the witness of the great Lord of Light..."

Even for the archbishop, the wedding speech would be no different from that of an ordinary priest, with nothing new to offer, and the nobles would not focus on this aspect.

Denise looked at Raven and Nancy with a hint of self-pitying envy in her eyes.

For various reasons, neither of her two marriages had a wedding ceremony, let alone one of such a grand scale.

This is her regret.

However, as the elder of the Griffith family and Raven's aunt, she was more happy in her heart.

Nancy married the man she loved, and Raven married the woman who loved him, which was more luxurious than any dowry or betrothal gift in aristocratic marriage.

Denise thought of her son again. She held Weisdon's hand and said, "Wesdon, you have to work hard so that you can have a spouse that suits your heart like Raven in the future."

Not far from Denise, Ms. Doreen was standing in the crowd.

In fact, she had some "bad" intentions when she came here today. She put on her most expensive dress and put on makeup carefully, hoping to attract the attention of others, especially Raven.

Of course, she didn't dare to offend the Fox family, and her plan was simple - I won't overshadow the bride, but if we're equally successful, you can't blame me, right?
This behavior had a very good effect. Many nobles, even those with their wives, would stare at her intently, causing Doreen to receive many jealous glances.

But when the bride appeared, Mrs. Doreen realized that she was too self-indulgent.

Nancy was simply the legendary beauty in the forest, exuding an irresistible beauty, and Ms. Doreen really couldn't deceive herself.

She wasn't the only one who felt this way.

Looking at the ladies around them, seeing them tightly clutching their handkerchiefs, skirts or their husbands' bruised hands, one can see how much of an impact Nancy's appearance has brought to them.

Who else could be worthy of Nancy?
Yes, there was only Raven who was walking next to Nancy.

He is young and handsome. Although his suit is gorgeous and extravagant, his temperament is clean and calm. The charm he exudes is indistinguishable from Nancy, yet they are in perfect harmony. Anyone who sees them has to admit that they are the best match.

At this moment, Ms. Doreen, like many other noble women present, wished she could replace Nancy.

But the fantasy eventually came to an end. Archbishop Thomas finished his long speech and got to the point:

"Lord Raven, are you willing to marry the lady in front of you, whether in sickness or health, poor or rich, and never leave her, and spend the rest of your life with her?"

"I am willing."

"Ms. Nancy, are you willing to marry the gentleman in front of you, and stay together forever, whether in sickness or health, poor or rich?"

"I am willing!"

"Then please exchange rings." The ring was designed and made by the gray dwarf Bowell himself.

Drawing on the advantages of the elf style, this pair of rings is designed to be extremely simple. At first glance, they look like they are simply wrapped with gold and silver wires, but if the two rings are placed together, they will become a rose that symbolizes strong love.

Raven looked into Nancy's eyes, smiled, took her hand, and gently put the ring on her left ring finger.

Then Nancy also picked up the ring and put it on Raven awkwardly.

There was intense applause and cheers at the scene.

Archbishop Thomas gave his final blessing: "May your love last forever and stand as strong as the cathedral."

Although many nobles had many kinds of fun in private, everyone had to remain conservative on the surface in this era, so there was no kissing in public, and they went straight to the stage of exchanging marriage certificates.

This process is not complicated. Both parties have already written it down and it is just a matter of going through the process.

The marriage ceremony is complete, but the wedding has just begun.

As the church was too small, the nobles could only stand in a space that was not too crowded and there was no space to move around, so the wedding banquet was held in the newly built hall.

The nobles came to the auditorium in a crowd.

It was already past 11 o'clock in the morning and many people were starting to feel hungry, but the wedding banquet could not start yet.

Next, the parents, relatives and friends of both sides took the stage to give speeches, so the nobles could only pretend to listen attentively on an empty stomach.

The ones who suffered the most were Raven and Nancy. After they put on their dresses, they couldn't take them off before the bridal chamber, so they couldn't even drink water, let alone eat. It was extremely difficult.

After the speeches, Raven and Nancy held hands, cut the wedding cake together, and distributed it to their loved ones personally.

Raven, who never liked cream, ate three pieces of cake in a row.

After replenishing their energy, the two men held their wine and waited for people to come up and bless and toast them, while Montreal introduced the guests to them.

Although she took small sips, Nancy was still drunk after half a day.

The tipsy bride had the privilege of returning to the bridal chamber early, but the groom was not so easily let off, especially Hyde, who fully demonstrated his bad friend style and kept giving Raven wine.

Even though Raven's body had been strengthened by the magic core, he was still a little exhausted after the continuous fighting. He could only whisper in Hyde's ear: "You are not married yet, right?"

It was this sentence that frightened Hyde into giving up.

Even so, it was not until after 8 o'clock in the evening that Raven left the banquet and returned to his new house.

The so-called new house was actually Raven’s own bedroom, but it was completely renovated in preparation for the wedding.

The door was closed, blocking out all the noise. The room became quiet and the lights were dimmed to the right degree, giving people a sense of peace.

Nancy was sitting quietly on the bed. When she saw Raven coming, she twisted her hands together unconsciously and bit her chin lightly with her lips.

Raven took off his heavy dress and threw it on the table, then slowly walked over to her and sat down, gently putting his arm around her shoulders.

Through the clothes, Raven felt the slightly cool yet soft and boneless skin.

Nancy's breathing began to become rapid, her body stiffened slightly, and then softened and leaned into Raven's arms.

This was the first time in her life that she had such contact with the opposite sex.

Although she had been imagining what it would be like to be with Raven since last year.

But when she really leaned on Raven's shoulder, the solid touch and the smell of hormones still made her heart start beating wildly, almost bursting out of her chest.

Raven took off Nancy's crown and looked from top to bottom, taking in Nancy's face bit by bit.

Her porcelain-white and smooth face was flushed, as if the sunset glow in the sky was reluctant to leave this delicate face and lingered on it.

For a moment, Raven looked a little dazed.

Nancy looked away shyly.

Seeing her reserved appearance now and remembering her unruly appearance in the past, a sense of contrast arose spontaneously, and Raven could not help but chuckle.

This laughter immediately aroused Nancy's pretend anger, and she frowned and glared back.

Then I saw Raven's face getting closer and closer.

You have no moral principles, this is a sneak attack!

But Nancy could only complain in her heart, because her lips were completely blocked and she could only see Raven's long eyelashes and eyes as deep as the night sky.

Her momentary shyness could not conceal the passion in her heart. After a brief moment of confusion, she responded to Raven unwillingly.

Jerky, but warm.

After a long time, the two slowly separated. Nancy looked at Raven provocatively: "Humph, you are not honest!"

"I've got a lot of dishonest things going on." Raven smiled, squatted down, grabbed Nancy's slender ankles, and took off her wedding shoes.

After a busy day, the white stockings on Nancy's feet were a little wet, with a hint of sourness and sweat, but not unpleasant.

After taking off her socks, Raven ran his hands up her ankles and slowly stood up himself.

Nancy was moved by him and felt a little itchy and her body as if it was electrified. She could only giggle to cover up the strange throbbing.

When Raven stood up, Nancy was already lying on the bed.

Rough hands all the way up.

"Wait!" Nancy's voice trembled a little. She bit her slightly red lips with her pearly teeth, held Raven's wrist, and pointed at the belt around his waist.

It is a belt made of lambskin, representing the bride's virginity. Only the husband can untie it and harvest the bride's chastity.

Raven slowly untied it.

The clothes of both men fell to the ground.

The moonlight was like water, illuminating the exquisite and delicate body on the wedding bed.

That is undoubtedly the perfection favored by the Creator, which is hard to imagine if you have never seen it.

Pure, cute, charming, sexy, these words, which may not be related at first, are perfectly combined in Nancy.

It's like a small apricot that exudes an enticing sweet fragrance.

Raven leaned down slowly.

Tiny goose bumps appeared on the skin that looked like a white jade sculpture. Nancy raised her white and tender arm and stroked Raven's cheek. Her eyes were full of expectation, anxiety and joy.

Nancy's hand was icy cold, but it only ignited the fire in Raven's heart, and his hand began to move.

After a brief exclamation, the room fell silent.

Maybe.

But only the moonlight can bear witness to this.
