Chapter 158 Coronation (9)
"Ms. Kalisna, I'm curious why you cursed Helain?" Galis stared at Kalisna thoughtfully.
This woman was her teacher, but Kallisna's speaking style was too sharp, and she was often played pranks by Kallisna when she was a child, so when she grew up, Galis didn't want to call Kallisna her teacher.
"You finally told me why you came here, my lovely Galis." Karisna placed the small tin can next to the golden birdcage. She pursed her lips, which were painted with dark red lipstick, making her skin look even paler.
Calisna maintained an elegant demeanor as she walked over to sit next to Galis. She picked up the lavender crystal ball on the coffee table and placed her right hand over the cold crystal. "I once employed a maid who was very interested in my identity, so I told her I was a witch. Later, she was bribed by Lotus and deliberately told me about Helain's philandering."
"You know, I hate philandering men." Kallisner's gaze fell on the crystal ball, a look of desolation on her face. Suddenly, Kallisner pursed her lips and chuckled. She looked at Galis, "You can understand that I acted impulsively and made a mistake."
Garis looked deeply at Kalisna, "So what was your punishment?"
"That's not something you should be asking. Being too curious isn't good." Kalisna placed the crystal ball in Garis's arms. "This crystal ball suits you very well. It would also be a nice decoration."
Garis looked at the lavender crystal ball in her hand, then glanced at her handbag. The corners of her mouth twitched. "Kalisna, do you want me to walk around the street with this crystal ball? Besides, why is your hobby giving crystal balls to people? My mother and my grandmother both have crystal balls of this color."
"Oh, I'm old and my memory is not good. And you look so much alike that I can't even remember if I have ever given it to you." Kalisna pursed her lips and chuckled, her green eyes reflecting a smile.
Galis, “…”
She didn't know what to say when faced with such a teacher.
But Kalisna did live longer than the turtle, and she had already sent away Galis's grandmother and mother.
The green parrot in the golden birdcage lowered its head from time to time to eat the food in the bowl. Suddenly, it tilted its head and looked out the window.
Through the glass, you can vaguely see the outline of the buildings in the palace in the distance.
Kallisna noticed the parrot's gaze, so she stood up and walked to the birdcage, saying with a smile, "It seems the little bird misses home." The afterglow of the setting sun could not shine into her home, so Kallisna was not worried that the sunlight would fall on her.
Garis, who was sitting on the sofa, didn't understand what Kallisner meant. She thought Kallisner was trying to tease the parrot and asked, "Are you really going to release this parrot?"
"Yes, since you care so much about this parrot, I can give it to you." Kalisna turned her head to look at Galis and said with a smile.
"No." Galis refused decisively. Carlisna's smile made Galis feel uneasy.
"Kalisna, I'm leaving first. I'll come see you in a few days." Galis stuffed the crystal ball into her handbag with great effort. Now her handbag was completely bulging like a round belly.
Kalisna watched Galis leave. She stood behind the door, looking at the smooth road surface reflecting the golden afterglow. She raised her hands to block her eyes to prevent them from getting hurt.
Sunlight is the natural enemy of vampires.
Kalisna knew this very well. She closed the door and sat back on the sofa. She could still smell the perfume on Galis's body.
"Ah, excessive contact with humans is not good. It always makes me think I'm still human." Kalisna lay down on the sofa, muttering to herself.
A night passed, and no one found Lotus. Even when Saminos issued the highest reward, there was no news.
Seven o'clock in the morning, at Lund's house.
Saminos sat on the luxurious sofa with his legs crossed on the coffee table. There was a lot of blue stubble on his chin, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked very haggard.
There were many empty wine bottles beside him, and the strong smell of alcohol filled the living room.
This was what Jamino saw when he came out of the bedroom.
He strode up to Saminos and kicked him in the thigh, "Saminos, what are you doing here?! Shouldn't you be looking for Rotus now?!"
Helena arrived in the living room a little later and ordered the maid next to her to quickly support Saminos.
"Husband, why do you say that about our child? If you want to look for him, you should send more people to look for him." Helena stared at Gemino with disapproval.
"That's enough!" Saminos half-opened his eyes. He hadn't slept for a whole day and night. He rudely waved away the maid who came over and kicked over the coffee table.
Gemino was frightened by his sudden kick on the table, "Saminos, what are you doing?! Do you still have the appearance of a knight?!"
"What knight? Haha, I don't want to be this shitty knight. Gemino, my father, you may not know yet, Freya has decided to deprive me of the title of Knight Commander." Saminos stood up shakily, his steps unsteady, he barely walked to Gemino, and grabbed Gemino's collar with both hands.
Helena was frightened by Saminos's appearance. She grabbed Saminos' arm and begged him, "Saminos, he is your father. You can't be so rude to your father."
"Get out!" Saminos raised his arm and hit Helena in the chest with his elbow. "Why should I be the only one to do the job of finding someone? You have to do it too!"
He pulled Gemino's collar and spit out a mixed smell of alcohol from his mouth, which made Gemino unable to open his eyes.
Gemino couldn't stand Saminos's drunken madness. He pushed Saminos' face with his hands and kept shouting, "Someone come and pull him away! This lunatic!"
Helena was helped up by the maid, clutching her chest and crying, "Oh, oh, how could I have raised such a son?"
In the chaos, the Lund family began a day of chaos.
Inside the palace, Gu Chang was also pulled out of bed by Anna early in the morning.
Gu Chang sat dazedly on the dining chair. He was so sleepy that he could hardly open his eyes, but he was still chewing half a boiled egg in his mouth.
Anna urged him, "Eat quickly. I need to dress you up later. Today is the day your sister Freya ascends the throne. You can't be late."
Gu Chang swallowed the food in his mouth and forced his eyes open, "Okay, I'll eat quickly."
The coronation ceremony took place in the Sun Palace, where successive kings met with their ministers every day.
At eight o'clock all ministers and royal family members must arrive at the Sun Palace.
Fortunately, they arrived at the Sun Palace before eight o'clock. Gu Chang and Claire stood on the right side of the throne, while the queen and princess of the previous king stood on the left side.
The ministers stood on both sides in order, all wearing formal dresses and tall hats.
As soon as eight o'clock arrived, Freya slowly walked out of the gate to the sound of solemn and dignified music.
She wore a gorgeous crimson cape embroidered with golden oak leaves. She wore luxurious silver jewels on her chest and a golden belt around her waist. Her long, light-blonde hair flowed softly behind her. She approached Sylvia with a firm yet gentle gaze.
Sylvia frowned slightly and took the heavy crown inlaid with countless gorgeous gems from the servant beside her.
Even though she was reluctant for Freya to become queen, she could only keep this thought in her heart.
When the crown was firmly placed on Freya's head, everyone applauded and congratulated Freya on becoming the queen of the empire.
Claire couldn't help but burst into tears watching this scene. She had waited so long for this day. In her heart, Freya was the most suitable person to succeed her.
The people in the royal city also spontaneously came to the palace gate and cheered Freya's name enthusiastically.
On this day, a book titled "The Fifth Prince of the Empire: Why He is Always Involved in Erotic Scandals" came out.
Many people bought this book just because of its title, and even bookstores started to run out of stock.
People who bought this book initially thought it was just gossip about Heinlein, but the more they read, the more they found out about the things that the Lund family and Rots had done.
The Lund family withheld workers' wages, seized farmland to build houses, and plundered the people's wealth. Anyone who resisted was killed by the Lund family.
That's why the Lund family is so rich.
The person protecting the Lund family is the missing eldest prince Rotus.
Not only was he jealous of Heilain's beauty, he also slandered Heilain.
He was the one who had people spread the rumor that time.
Among those who helped him was the Valenas family.
Poor Miss Finina was a scapegoat. After marrying Lotus, she did not live a good life. She was always beaten and scolded by Lotus. Before her death, she left a suicide note exposing the evil deeds done by Lotus and the Lund family.
As time went by, the people's anger grew. They rushed to the Lund family's manor and demanded that the Lund family return the money they had stolen.
However, Gemino had already left the royal city with his family in a carriage, and took several boxes of gold coins with him.
After learning about this, Freya ordered the Royal Knights to capture the escaped Lund family.
She personally went to the Lund family's manor and declared in front of the crowd that she would definitely capture the Lund family. With her appeasement, the rioting people left the manor one after another.
