Chapter 2 Parade

"It's this scene again, it's basically not changed much from the previous ones."

When Sophia walked on the street, the people around her seemed to be disturbed by some mysterious force. They all ignored the girl and separated the road on their own, always keeping a distance from Sophia.

The surrounding hustle and bustle are in sharp contrast with Sophia's quietness.

"Glory belongs to the empire!"

"His Majesty the Emperor..."

Various cheers were mixed together, and people were offering their most sincere enthusiasm for the new emperor who was about to ascend the throne.

This is not just the imperial capital, but the entire empire. Now this is the main tone of the entire empire.

The crowning ceremony of the new emperor has a fixed set of procedures. First, we set out from the palace and went to the tombs of the previous emperors to worship in order to seek our ancestors to bless the empire, and then held a grand parade.

The parade must pass through every corner of the imperial capital, and the aristocratic areas and slums must be paraded, symbolizing that His Majesty the Emperor has a love for every citizen.

Finally, the crowning ceremony was held under the sculpture of the founding emperor in Empire Square. The only most respected national teacher of the empire personally put the crown on the emperor's head.

This process does not require such a mandatory provision, such as laws or training. However, every new emperor did the same, and it has formed a convention and has also evolved into a festival that is almost the grandest of the empire.

This new emperor of this term naturally followed this convention. The sacrifices to ancestors have ended, and it is now a parade.

Unlike ordinary emperor parades, the imperial emperor parades were much smaller than in other places.

There was no guard of honor holding a flag and kicking stairs, no bands beating drums and drums, and no people driving the crowd to maintain order. There were only one carriage of the emperor and eight cavalry following behind him.

It is extremely shabby, and it is hard to imagine that this is one of the most powerful empires on the continent. The emperor parade of the Stuart Dynasty, even a mere municipal chief in the Federation of Kuwaishirbus, is much larger than this.

It is said that this was the first emperor, that is, on a continent with many powerful countries, who turned the small tribe that could only live in the middle of the cracks into the country.

In order to let future emperors remember the past of the empire forever, it is also to prevent too many guards of honor from separating the emperor and the people from becoming farther and farther away.

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Long live the Emperor!"

"Long live the Emperor!"

The names on both sides of the street raised their hands and shouted long live, and even emotional people rushed towards the slow-moving carriage.

"His Majesty the Emperor..."

A ragged old man rushed to the emperor's carriage, putting his dirty hands on the carriage, leaving two black palm prints.

This is a slum, and it is already very good to have a pretty complete piece of clothing.

Although every emperor wanted to completely solve the problem of the poor, unfortunately the development of the empire was really difficult to keep up with the rapid development of the empire. It was only after the previous emperor issued the decree to control fertility.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, I..."

The old man stammered on the carriage and hesitated to say something. The man followed the carriage, because the carriage was walking very slowly, he could do this.

As for this happening, the knights who followed the carriage and clamped their legs tightly with their horse's belly.

The horse under his crotch suffered this pain and stopped walking as slowly as before. He rushed to both sides of the carriage in a few steps, trying to pull the old man away.

"No."

The emperor, who was sitting in the carriage, waved his hand, indicating that the knights needed nothing to do.

"Old man, do you have anything to say to me?"

Humble and courteous, this is the new emperor who is about to be crowned, Audis Stuart, at least what the civilians see.

From the old man's hesitation voice and the way he was stuck in the carriage for a long time, it was easy to know what the old man wanted to say.

"Emperor... His Majesty the Emperor, I...I..."

The old man continued to follow the carriage, saying scattered words intermittently, and then suddenly fell to the ground.

"Stop, stop quickly, knight, go and see the old man."

Seeing the old man fall suddenly, Audis hurriedly shouted at the coachman, leaving his seat to pull the reins, hoping that the carriage would stop immediately.

Due to the Emperor's Majesty, the coachman was unable to stop the carriage, and the knights following behind also obeyed the emperor's orders to investigate the old man's strangeness.

"How is the old man?"

"I just fainted from hunger after my Majesty, and it was nothing serious."

The knight who looked like a knight-leading knight pulled the reins and let the horse stand next to the carriage, but let his subordinates simply investigate the old man.

"Discover... My people will faint because of hunger."

Audis held his forehead with his right hand, trying to look sad, and said in a slightly choked voice.

"These are my dereliction of duty. If I could see it earlier, then this old man would not faint from hunger today. He helped the old man into my carriage and sent him to the imperial doctor for treatment when the parade was over."

"Your Majesty, but..."

"Okay, nothing, but this is my order."

Regardless of the dissuasion of the Knight Commander, Audis insisted on letting the old man and he march in a carriage, but the knights ordered by the emperor had to carry the fainted old man onto the emperor's carriage.

After this touching plot of the new emperor loving the people as if he were a child, the procession that continued to parade gradually faded away, and a silver-haired girl leaned against the wall and looked in the direction of the carriage leaving.

"The idea is good, but the acting skills need to be improved, but it is still OK to show it to the people."

The girl who spoke was Sophia. At this moment, she still used magic to block her eyes to turn herself into a transparent person in a sense.

She did not directly use teleportation magic to teleport herself to Empire Square.

If you do that, you will most likely get a gift pack that penetrates the heart when your feet hit the ground.

The crowning of the new emperor is a big deal. Although the parade team is so shabby, in fact, the parade team has heavy troops on the routes, including many of the top combat power of the empire.

Needless to say, protecting an emperor from being approached by an assassin, even a mosquito may not fly to the emperor.

The cold team is just for the people to see.

In fact, none of the above concerns are the main reason. She is already the strongest magician on the mainland and can be solved by a group of unappreciated small characters. She has lived in vain for hundreds of years.

The reason why the girl really just teleports herself to the vicinity of Empire Square and walks the rest of the road with her feet is nothing more than that she doesn't want her shoes to be worn in vain.

Since you don’t walk, why do you need to wear shoes?

It happened that the walking national teacher met the emperor who made a carriage, and he finished watching the previous scene without missing a trace.

She knew Audis, who was absolutely kind in the eyes of ordinary people, but in her eyes, he was an unqualified emperor.

Kindness is good, but Audis' kindness is too false, and Audis' excessive kindness is not something an emperor should have.

Climbing a carriage with the poor can certainly give the people a good image of the emperor loving the people as much as his son

However, the emperor must be arrogant. Who would look up and look forward to longing for the unrestrained emperor?

If the people want to be grateful to the emperor, it is enough to just leak a little out of their fingers.

"Hey... I've told him that I should pay equal importance to kindness and power, but I only remember to fight for people and peace."

Sophia sighed, feeling a little regretful about the emperor who was once her student.
