Traitor Summoning System [Infrastructure]

Well, there is some truth to what Rhett V said.

In fact, Rhett V also understands that he has been king for a short time, after all, he came to the throne in that way. After all, he can't make decisions after taking the throne, so he is psychologically prepared for his abdication in the future.He also thought that if he abdicated, Wei Zhongxian would definitely want to kill him, but Leonard should not kill him, because Leonard has always been very generous, and he should hug Leonard's thigh tightly.He also thought that if Leonard made it clear that he should abdicate, he would abdicate in a proper manner without any resistance. Only in this way can he show that he has no ambitions, so that Leonard can rest assured, and thus save his life. .

In fact, Leonard also understands that there is no problem with Rhett V's abdication here, but the problem is with the nobles of the empire.

The reason why Leonard put on such a big posture is very simple.

Pretend to be X, and show your holiness in front of others, in order to get destiny points.

But this scared Rhett V enough.

[To intimidate the king of the empire, add 1000 destiny points. 】

From Rhett V's scare, Leonard got paid more than enough.But these are just points for intimidation, and the points for proclaiming the emperor have not yet arrived.

According to past experience, the matter needs to be completely settled before the destiny points will be settled.

So Leonard asked the members of the Blazing Sun Sect to ring the bell of the cathedral.

The bells of the cathedral are deafening, echoing throughout the city, majestic and distant.In the evening sunset, people took to the streets one after another, puzzled by the sudden ringing of the bell.

Leonard didn't make them wait too long.

In the early morning of the next day, the bards spread the gossip to every tavern.

For ordinary people, as long as they don't squeeze them too much, changing the king is actually no big deal.For the nobles, this is a reshuffle of power.

However, when Leonard became the former Prime Minister, most of the forces had completed the reorganization ahead of schedule, so although Leonard's usurping the throne was quite abrupt, it was basically possible to achieve a gentle transition.

The exact news from the palace is that the king's coronation ceremony will be officially held a day later.

In fact, this kind of coronation ceremony should have been prepared for a longer time, but Leonard was eager to revive Cai Lun, so he held it immediately.

Gao Lian has experience in preparing for such things. Although Leonard's request this time was a bit strange, he quickly prepared everything that should be prepared.

And Leonard's specific request is to cancel the link of heaven's grant of monarchy in the coronation ceremony.

It's ridiculous to say that although the empire has suppressed the religious forces to the point where they don't have much real power, when it's their turn, they have to talk about the divine right of kings, as if they are incomparably holy.

The Leonards think that they don't need to engage in this kind of thing, democracy and science are king.

"Now everyone has their own official positions, some have been restored to their original positions, and some have surpassed their official positions in China. But our empire is too small, our people are too few, and everything is still not working. I hope everyone Don't be content with the status quo, when we finish dealing with the matter in front of us, we will start to expand the territory, what do you think?"

Leonard's words immediately aroused everyone's greed.

Wei Zhongxian nodded: "Since ancient times, the founding emperors have always expanded their borders. We are fortunate to assist Mingjun, so naturally we should do it well."

Riding the horse and raising the whip to open up the territory, in ancient times, this is a lofty ideal and the ultimate romance.Back then, Cao Cao's dream was to be the general who conquered the west and make contributions to the great man, which is an excellent proof.

So after Wei Zhongxian finished speaking, everyone immediately nodded, and these words aroused the big guy's even greater greed.

……

The enthronement ceremony will take place soon.

Drums and music were played, and the officials first saluted the empty throne.

Then Gao Qiu saluted to the gate and asked Leonard to ascend the throne. At the same time, the bard recited Leonard's achievements.

Gao Qiu saluted and asked once, then Leonard's direct descendants saluted together and asked once, then everyone in the palace saluted together and asked again, Leonard was long overdue.

At this time, the bard's recitation just ended, the beating of drums ended, and the sound of magnificent playing music resounded through the hall.

Leonard walked towards the throne along with the music.

Then a joke suddenly sounded in his mind: No one can beat me in my BGM.

There was a newly forged crown on the throne. Leonard put the crown on his head with his own hands, and then sat on the throne, officially ascending the throne.

After the whip was fired three times at the door, all the officials bowed and saluted together.

The whole process was solemn and solemn. Although there was no presence of the church, no one felt that the ceremony was too casual.

Chinese etiquette culture, casually leaking out a little bit will make these Westerners widen their eyes.

When Leonard's butt touched the throne, the system's announcement sounded.

[Become the emperor of the empire, increase 20000 points of destiny. 】

Sure enough, as he expected, becoming the emperor of the empire means having a lot of destiny points.

This is more than half of the destiny points for resurrecting Cai Lun.

leftover……

The destiny points in this continent have basically been drained, unless he suddenly did something shameless to shock everyone.

Then the next step is to develop overseas.

There are also a large number of Mandate Points overseas.

This is also in line with Leonard's next goal.

……

At night, the palace is brightly lit, and the king's enthronement dinner is being held.

The nobles from all over the place were ushered into the main hall by the attendants with invitations.The walls and floor of the main hall are all milky white marble with slender dark red veins on it.The ground is covered with thick dark green mats, absorbing all footsteps.Thirty torches are inserted into the pedestals inlaid on the wall, and the flaming flames set off the light of the nearby candlesticks slenderly and beautifully.

The wind outside is very strong, and the cold wind whistling lonely outside the window, winter is coming.There was a chill on the windows.

But it made the fire in the hall look warmer and more cozy.

For the king's enthronement dinner, the dishes are naturally quite carefully prepared.

One dish that stands out is the fried ham.

This ham is not an ordinary ham, it is a ham that has been air-dried for a whole year.

Fermented ham, cheese and red wine are known as the world's three major fermented delicacies.For tonight's banquet, it's all set.

The pork used in the ham is the Iberian black pig rewarded by the system. The Iberian black pig is a Spanish native pig. It is known as one of the most expensive pigs in the world and is a nobleman among pigs, although it ends up being eaten by people.Ordinary Iberian black pigs have poor reproductive ability, long growth cycle, eat acorns and drink mountain spring water.The reproductive capacity of the Iberian black pigs rewarded by the system has been improved, and the growth cycle has been shortened, but the meat quality is better than ordinary black pigs.Its meat is elastic, full of the fresh aroma of pork and the unique fragrance of acorns, without any foul smell.Iberian black pigs can store fat in the muscles and distribute it to the whole body, which is one of the reasons why its meat is delicious.

The hind legs of Iberian black pigs are salted, and then hung up to let the wind blow, the fat on the hind legs will gradually be oxidized into a special delicacy. ①

In fact, it should be air-dried for a longer period of time in theory, but it has only been a few years since Leonard has traveled through time, so he can't make ham right after time travel, and he just wants to use it when he becomes the emperor.

...But if you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.

Clean fat, beautiful oil flower parts, rich ham aroma, lightly fried, it is tender and delicious to the point of indescribable.

The mouthfeel is dense, the entrance is ecstasy, and the mouth and teeth still feel fragrant after eating.

In addition to Iberico ham, other hams were served at the dinner, which were prepared into a variety of dishes.One of them is fried chicken fir with ham. It uses very few ingredients, just a little oil and a little salt. Only the combination of ingredients will collide with wonderful delicacy.

Chicken fir has a long history in China. Some people think that "Zhuangzi" refers to chicken fir, saying that we have been eating chicken fir since more than 2000 years ago.According to specific records, Emperor Xizong of Ming Dynasty liked Jizong very much, but because Jizong was tender and tender, it was like "a concubine laughing while riding a red dust", and escorted Jizong to the capital for the emperor to eat at the post station all the way.

Stir-fried chicken fir with ham, the delicious natural air-dried ham blooms on the tip of the tongue, and then spreads out in the mouth like a broken bamboo. The depth and breadth of the taste strengthen the aggressiveness of the ham.The thick and fat chicken fir tastes very delicious. Known as the crown of fungi, it is also delicious when it is taken out alone. At this moment, the chicken fir absorbs the delicious and mellow oil secreted by the ham after frying, bite it down, and feel the taste It penetrated into the body, making people's eyes straight.

"Every time this kind of banquet is held, I always feel that the food provided is a bit overwhelming." Leonard said to Wei Zhongxian next to him, "Really, what about their aristocratic image?"

"In the face of such delicious food, it is difficult for people who eat it for the first time to maintain the image of aristocrats." Wei Zhongxian said, "Besides, the so-called image is just a kind of whitewashing. People who really hold power, even if they open their clothes and raise their legs. Eating food directly with your hands will also be praised as brave, unrestrained, and heroic."

"That's true." Leonard felt a picture suddenly appear in his mind.

"Then let's wait until after the banquet." Leonard said, "Let Gao Li talk to them, let them raise pigs on their own territory, and say that tonight's delicacies need a lot of pigs to make."

"Okay, Your Majesty." Wei Zhongxian said.

Leonard suddenly smiled: "Do you know why I didn't ask you to call me the Prime Minister before, but always called me the lord?"

"Why?" Wei Zhongxian asked following Leonard's words.

"That's because I know that sooner or later I will become a king, and the halfway positions are just transitional, so I don't need to change my name specially. From Lord Lord to His Majesty the King, one step is enough." Leonard said.

"Your Majesty really has great ambitions, and I admire you." Wei Zhongxian said sincerely.

The corner of Leonard's mouth twitched.

... You said you admired me, but in the end you didn't contribute even a single bit of Destiny Points.

Well, regardless of this, Wei Zhongxian licked it very well, which made Leonard feel very comfortable.
