Chapter 491 Marriage
As time went by, the shock caused by the return of the Shadowlands gradually calmed down.
People are always very adaptable. No matter how shocking things are, over time, they will become accustomed to them and even think that they are the eternal truth.
The nameless caravan also continued to operate in an orderly manner. As Serui said, after abandoning the rune transaction, the caravan ran well and was quite efficient.
Under Wuming's leadership, Luen gradually disappeared from the caravan's trading system.
The caravan is getting stronger and stronger, and now with Wuming as its core, the various forces surrounding him, combined together, are already a force that cannot be ignored. Although his background is still shallow, in terms of high-end talents, he has even surpassed the royal forces such as Rodel Kalia.
And under the auspices of Serui, the growth rate is astonishing.
On this day, Wuming received a message.
It was an invitation from the royal family of Caria, inviting him to visit the Walled City of Caria to serve as a marriage priest and baptize newlyweds.
All matters in the caravan were managed by Serui, and Wuming went there happily when he had nothing to do.
With the teleportation gate of Kalia, Wuming transferred to the teleportation gate several times and soon arrived at the gate of Kalia Walled City.
The Calian knight Mulitir personally greeted him. Since the Shadow Land returned to the border area and the holy war was completely over, Leilana was completely freed from the heavy burden and took Messermo to the Calian stronghold.
"Who is getting married?" Wuming chatted with Mulitier, "Leilana?"
"Miss Lani and Lady Lelana." Mulitier puffed out her chest, "I will be the bridesmaid."
"Lani?" Wuming wondered, "Didn't she get married to her husband a long time ago? Divorced? The divorce rate in Kallia is so high. I have a guide for getting married here written by a relationship expert, which can ensure that you think about it before getting married. Clearly, I can think clearly when we break up.”
"An emotional guidance book written by the wisdom of the stone?" Mulitier had obviously heard of this book, "No need."
"Then Lani might have gotten divorced again." Wuming didn't give up and still peddled the books in the caravan.
"There has never been a divorce." Mulitier said, "Just talking about simple marriages, both Miss Lani and Lady Leilana have already done it. It's just that there has never been a formal marriage that was grand enough. Lady Nora said that she would like to reissue it for her sister and daughter."
"That's not right." Wuming wondered, "I heard before that Lenara was going to hold a big banquet and entertain a lot of guests. Shouldn't you invite Milie to get married with Kaliya? Why would you invite me?"
When Wu Mingzhen saw Lenara, along the way to Lenara's side, he didn't see any festive decorations or servants busy preparing for the marriage.
In the room where Man Yue received Wu Ming, she was the only one sitting there, no one else.
"Did you really invite me here just for the sake of being a priest?" Wuming was confused, "I don't think so."
"Sir, you are very perceptive." Man Yue stretched out her palm and motioned Wuming to sit down, "I want to discuss other things with you."
"What's going on? Do you have to find a reason to hide it?" Wuming sat on the seat and looked at the full moon.
"I heard that your caravan is thriving." Man Yue said, "It has even replaced Rune."
Wuming smiled and nodded: "It's all thanks to Se Rui."
Man Yue said: "But there should still be a lot of discrepancies in Se Rui's calculations, right?"
"I heard that it was because she couldn't get Kalia's data, so she could only estimate." Wuming said.
Lenara nodded: "Kalia wants to cooperate with you and introduce Serui's management method."
Wuming was shocked: "This is a big deal. Are you willing to believe us? Give the data to Serui?"
"I don't believe it." Lenara shook her head, "But we, Kalia, are also the most knowledgeable about technology. We know that your current model has huge potential, and Kalia doesn't want to be left behind."
Lenara said: "I also know that it will be very difficult to build a Serui again, both in terms of technology and pyroxene reserves. So I hope that we can share the wisdom of Serui, the super stone."
"I'm afraid Se Rui is unwilling." Wuming said.
"She will definitely be willing." Lenara was very sure, "I asked her."
"This unlucky kid," Wuming said, "has he been promised a lot of benefits?"
"After all, her purpose is to collect more pyroxene." Lenara said, "And she also said that she can't make the decision and needs to seek your opinion."
Lenara said: "The reason why I need to ask for your opinion is because you hold the 'key' - the mechanism written at the bottom of Serui to ensure that she can no longer cause chaos."
"You know very well." Wuming said.
"Kalia also contributed to this mechanism at the beginning." Lenara said, "Our request is also very simple. Give us a few 'keys' and we will control them together. As long as our own safety is guaranteed, Kalia The management of various affairs can also be gradually handed over to Serui."
"This is really a big deal." Wuming said, "No wonder it's so secretive."
Wuming was a little hesitant. Bringing Kallia under Serui's management would indeed bring a lot of benefits.
But it’s hard to say whether assigning management rights to Kalia will cause more new problems.
After all, Callia is Callia, and a caravan is a caravan.
The impact of this division of rights may not only affect the caravans, but also Callia.
"You're really relieved." Wuming said to Lenara.
"Trust can be strengthened in various ways." Lenora said, "Even if I don't trust your character, we can use various ways to strengthen mutual trust."
"What about?" Wuming asked.
"Getting married." Lenara said, "Leilana and Lani are both married, but I am still single. Although I am a mother of three children, I am also the Queen of Kallia. If you are willing, we can get married. "
Wuming was startled and looked at Lenara, only to see that Lenara's expression did not change at all and her eyes were still as cold as the moon.
Wuming roughly understood: "Political marriage."
Lenara nodded: "As long as both parties are integrated with each other and their interests are deeply bound, there will naturally be no betrayal."
Wuming said: "Why did Radagan betray you?"
A few veins appeared on Lenara's forehead, but a forced smile appeared on her originally expressionless face:
"I don't know, but the current situation of the Golden Tree is the price. I believe we can all learn this lesson. As long as you are willing, the Kaliya Walled City can hold a new bonding ceremony."
"This matter is too big, I have to ask other people's opinions." Wuming said, left the room, contacted Patch, and told him the situation.
"Can you agree?" Wuming asked.
Patch asked, "What do you think?"
"I always feel a little conflicted," Wuming said, "I feel uneasy."
"Then you still have some brains." Patch said, "We are neutral, Kalia is trying to win over you."
"Why did you suddenly think of winning over us?" Wuming said.
"In today's border area, do you understand that there are three pillars of conflict?" Patch said.
"Which three legs?" Wuming asked.
"Kalia, Rodel, and Nimgfu." Patch said, "The Horned Man has a very good relationship with Neferi, and it is basically certain that they have formed an alliance. With the power and technology of the Horned Man, and the stable Over time, Stonewell has grown into a very large force.”
Patch said: "But there is another force at the junction, which is no less powerful than the other forces. It is growing rapidly, remains neutral, and has no ambition to become a king."
“Whoever this neutral force turns to will be the ultimate winner,” Patch said. “And once it turns to someone, it will definitely lead to counterattacks and resistance from other forces.”
Wuming realized in hindsight: "Could it be that the purpose of the full moon is not to talk about cooperation, but to pull us towards Kaliya?"
Patch said: "Kalia's current power is vaguely the strongest. It can be said to be stronger than the Golden Tree."
"Is it that exaggerated?" Wuming said, "Rodel has Lao Lu."
"Kalia has more cards than Rodel." Patch said, "Three top combat powers, one godman, and several heroic level combat powers."
"Lao Lu also has two sons... Oh, I'm afraid Mengge won't help." Wuming said, "Speaking of which, what's going on with the Blood Dynasty now?"
"I heard from Ampach that he is hiding and continuing to recruit troops to expand his power," Patch said.
"How did you ask about Ampah?" Wuming asked.
"He is helping to recruit soldiers and horses in our store, recruiting faded people to be loyal." Patch said, "He opened a veteran barbecue, and grilled skewers with blood flames when he had nothing to do. It can also be considered as subsidizing the Blood Dynasty."
Wuming asked: "So, you can't agree to Lenara?"
"Anyway, I've told you the problems and consequences. You can weigh it yourself." Patch said.
Wuming weighed it up and went back to reject Lenara: "Forget about the marriage, but the management rights of Serui can be divided between you."
Lenara took a deep look at Wuming:
"Are you really going to stop thinking about it? If we join forces, you can get more benefits."
Wuming laughed, enigmatic and deafening:
"Political marriages are never happy!"
Wuming took out a book:
"This is a guide to getting married written by Se Rui. It includes how to choose a partner, how to handle relationships between the sexes, the difficulties you may encounter, and a guide to parenting."
Wuming patted the cover of the book and vowed:
"It is said in it that such a relationship will only bring hidden dangers and pain. And the higher the level, the easier it is to cause new problems due to complex exchanges of interests."
"Written by wisdom in a stone." Lenara expressed the same doubt.
"This is based on summarizing a large number of cases and putting it forward." Wuming said, "And we have already promoted it and proved that people's willingness to get married and have children has increased by ten points."
"It's interesting, let me take a look." Lenara asked for a book and browsed through the contents of the book at will.
There are indeed many detailed examples.
For example, the marriage between Princess Lenara of Carlia and the Royal Family of the Golden Tree eventually led to the Shattering War. For example, the marriage of Princess Lenara of Carlia to Messermo ended up being a widow for thousands of years.
There are also pictures of Radhagaon and the full moon on it, which are vivid and lifelike.
Lenora closed the book, and the thick book twisted slightly in her hands, as if it was about to be crushed.
The full moon holds its forehead:
"Okay, so be it."
Wuming said goodbye to Man Yue. Before leaving, he hesitated a little, but finally said:
"Actually, I think you still miss Radagan."
Wuming felt that the coldness in Man Yue's eyes became more and more obvious. It's just that this chill is different from the indifferent chill, it's a more intense chill.
"I'm sorry." Wuming smiled and backed away, "It's not good for someone who can treat himself as a bargaining chip so calmly. It's not good for him to be so excited. His subordinates will be uneasy if they see him."
Leinara grabbed the book on the table and wanted to throw it away, but she sighed and put it away.
