C825 Accepting This Title Is Giving You Face
Not only Chen Feng, but also his mother, Qin Qing and Xia Yuling, knew Saria's middle name for the first time.
This middle name was a bit masculine. In the Northern States, it was even used by a prominent family as a surname. When Saria's grandfather named Rockefeller, it was probably because he hoped that Rockefeller would be like that family. He wanted to lead the family towards glory.
Then, this name was used by Saria's parents as the middle name for her.
The middle name was more meaningful to westerners in commemoration, expectation, or inheritance. Usually, it would not be used as a proper name. It was normal that Saria did not mention it.
But after Henry IV asked that question, an awkward situation happened.
The Head Chief of the Imperial Palace had a headache. The last question had clearly been deleted, so why did Henry IV recite it again? Was it a habit or was it intentional?
If it was out of habit, it was understandable.
If it was intentional, then there really was a problem with his brain.
Chen Feng's identity, Saria's identity, they were already thankful that they could accept this title. They even wanted her to swear allegiance to you. How big of a face did you have?
So now it was a little awkward. Saria did not answer. She just slightly raised her head and quietly looked at Henry IV.
She took into account Henry IV's face and did not directly say "I don't want to," or else the ceremony would be directly GG.
But what would happen next?
If she did not answer, the ceremony would not be able to continue.
The original arrangement was that after Henry IV finished reciting the prayer, he would be conferred the title of nobility. He didn't need to ask anything and just jumped over.
Now that he asked, could he just jump over as if nothing had happened?
Of course he could jump, but his face was inevitably a little swollen.
It was arranged well, what were you asking? Why do you ask? Will you die if you don't ask?
Although this was only a ceremony, no one would take it seriously. Even the nobles were only loyal to the king in name and would not really listen to his orders.
But even if this was only a formality, Saria would not say she was willing because she did not need to suffer this grievance.
Accepting this title was giving you face.
Not accepting this title will have no effect on me at all.
It's that simple.
Saria's silence caused the scene in the hall to stiffen for a moment. The reporters held their cameras and looked at each other.
Henry IV did not know if he had said those words out of habit or had other motives. Now, he was in a dilemma and his expression changed.
In the end, it was Chen Feng who solved the problem. He sent a voice transmission to Saria, "Tell her that I am willing to accept the title given by the king."
Saria's eyes lit up. She looked for Chen Feng to speak and lowered her head slightly.
If she kept silent, it would only make the situation worse and worse. This sentence could save her life.
Only accepting a title and not pledging allegiance, this would still be interpreted by the outside world. However, it did not matter anymore.
Who cares what those outsiders think, we'll live our own lives.
Henry IV gritted his teeth, put away the sword, and put it back into the sheath. He took the marquis medal that the maid brought over and leaned over to put it on Saria's chest.
"From now on, you are a second class marquis of Frank State. I will give you land and make you a lord."1
He reached out his hand and picked up a golden silk map from another maid's golden plate. He raised his voice and announced loudly, From now on, you are the second class Marquis of ___. I will give you land and give you the title of Lord.
"From today onwards, the entire Provence Province will belong to you!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, an uproar broke out.
