Compared to the raging wars in the Riverlands, Arryn Valley, which is only separated from the Riverlands by the Moon Mountains, has been completely immersed in joy for the past few days.

As early as a few days ago, the news that Duke Gaoyuan was about to marry Miss Margaery of the Tyrell family had spread throughout the valley. On the eve of the wedding between the Guardian of the East and the Rose of Highgarden, Yue

In the endless camps in front of the gate, the joy and laughter of the canyon lords and soldiers never stopped.

A joyful atmosphere permeated the canyon, and the happiest among them was the tavern and the female slave girls. During this period, their income almost doubled.

But problems soon arose. As the demand for wine doubled, the original wine reserves in the tavern were quickly exhausted. Whether it was ale, beer, wine or cider, all were now consumed by crazy soldiers.

They bought them all.

Due to the shortage of drinks, a large number of violent incidents soon occurred in various taverns. Those soldiers who lacked discipline began to frequently cause trouble in various taverns and even in the camp because they could not buy the spiritual food they wanted.

There was a fight for drinks.

As a result, the young Earl Hunter, who was responsible for maintaining order in the tavern, was overwhelmed by the frequent violence in the Arryn Valley. Even though he had sent out all the soldiers under his command, he even personally

Patrolling various taverns with guards, but it still seems to be a drop in the bucket.

Therefore, the young Earl Hunter had no choice but to ask the Eagle's Nest City for help. Fortunately, Lord Gao Yuan, who was busy preparing for the wedding, still approved his request in his busy schedule. By Sir Simon Temperton

The eight thousand Nine Star City soldiers he led soon joined the ranks to maintain order in the canyon.

The people who are celebrating this wedding now are not only the soldiers who came from afar. At this moment, the indigenous people in the Arryn Valley, as well as the Riverland refugees who were put into the canyon from the Blood Gate by Gao Yuan's order

, while also celebrating the coming of this grand wedding.

Long before that, Gao Yuan had distributed truckloads of food in the name of Margery to the refugees from the Riverlands who were pouring in. Anyway, Gao Yuan had planned to use the food to relieve the refugees who had lost their homes. Now,

It would be better to use this to gain a reputation for kindness among the people for his fiancée.

The result was just as Gao Yuan expected. When Margaery accompanied him to the settlement where the refugees gathered, she received a warm welcome from the people gathered here. As a result, she gained the support of all the refugees from the Riverlands and the entire Erin Valley.

Love.

Time soon came to the day of the wedding, which would be held in the sanctuary of the Eagle's Nest City. The canyon lords and knights boarded the Eagle's Nest City one after another early in the morning, just to see Gao Yuan with their own eyes.

The wedding of your lordship to the Rose of Highgarden takes place.

But this is a hardship for those lords who are old or bloated. The journey to the Eagle's Nest City almost takes half of their lives. This is not because Gao Yuan is deliberately making things difficult for these lords who have difficulty moving.

It's just that Gao Yuan had his own considerations in choosing to hold the wedding in the Eagle's Nest City.

The Gates of the Moon at the foot of the mountain may be spacious enough to accommodate all the lords and knights attending the wedding. But Gao Yuan has now given that castle to Sir Nestor Royce.

As a vassal, Gao Yuan held his wedding in the castle of his vassal, which obviously did not comply with etiquette and the customs of Westeros.

Except for some special circumstances, the parties involved in the wedding usually choose to hold their wedding in their own castle. Moreover, the Eagle's Nest City also has the only church on the Giant's Spear. As the bride, Margaery

·Tyrell is a staunch believer in the Seven Gods, so her wedding will be held in this church.

The temple is a typical religious building for believers of the Seven Gods, just like the castles that believe in the old gods have a godswood. It is usually an independent building surrounded by seven walls.

Every church has an art form that represents the seven forms of the Seven Gods. In churches in remote areas of the countryside, they may just be carved masks, or paintings drawn with charcoal on the walls. In wealthy areas,

The temples will have statues inlaid with precious metals and gems.

In the morning in the spacious hall of the Eagle's Nest City, Gao Yuan and the guests who came from afar to attend the wedding enjoyed honey cake baked with blackberries and nuts, cured pork, bacon, bread and sweet apple pie.

During the dinner, Gao Yuan also provided everyone with endless fresh milk, fruit wine and golden sweet wine from Qingting Island. The graceful female singer showed off her beautiful singing voice to the guests,

While playing the harp in his hand with his slender fingers.

Mrs. Olena, who was sitting next to Gao Yuan, kindly praised her: "Lord Gao Yuan, before your wedding with Margaery begins, invite me, an old woman, to enjoy a glass of golden wine from my hometown. I'm afraid there is nothing better than this in the world."

It was thoughtfully arranged.”

"I heard that the wine produced on the Arbor is the best in Westeros, especially the golden wine produced there." Sir Nestor Royce also praised it in due course.

"indeed so!"

After clearing the food on the table, it’s time to give gifts. According to the tradition of the Reach, people will give gifts to the bride and groom in the morning before the wedding. The morning after the wedding, they will also give gifts to both parties.

A gift was given again, but it was a joint gift to the newlyweds.

Countess Waynwood presented them with a pair of soft snow boots sewn by her own hands; Jorn Royce sent someone to present him with two amulets made of his ancestral rune armor; Jerwood

·Earl Hunter was the most generous. He presented Gao Yuan with a huge bow made of Valyrian steel.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This giant bow is almost impossible to pull open with ordinary human strength, but after Gao Yuan received the gift, he pulled it to the full string in front of everyone.

This couldn't help but arouse a burst of exclamation and admiration from everyone present.

Count Holden Redford presented Gao Yuan with a crown made of pure gold, with a huge gem inlaid in the middle. In addition, Count Beneda Belmore's gift was a

A fine silver bell; Sir Simon Temperton's gift was an Evening Star dragon brooch made of solid gold.

The next person who presented the generous gift was Ser Garlan Tyrell. His gift was a huge dragon horn. The horn's entire body was covered with stripes of red gold and Valyrian black steel, and its surface was smooth and extremely shiny.

Bright, bright enough that people can see their own distorted reflection in it, and the stripes wrapping the horn are engraved with countless strange ancient magic patterns.

Sir Garland, who sent a generous gift, introduced this: "This is the horn I found in the ruins of Ancient Valyria. It is said that the dragon kings of Ancient Valyria used binding spells and this magical horn to control their flight.

A mount in the sky.”

Mrs. Olenna was the last person to present a gift to Gao Yuan. Her gift was a dark golden full-coverage helmet. The design of the helmet was very exquisite, with a dark golden dragon spreading its wings and roaring at the top, and there were also inlays on the mask.

There is a silver cross evening star.

After the gift-giving session was over, Gao Yuan went back to his room to change clothes. The other guests rushed towards the church, where they would wait and witness the wedding of Gao Yuan and Gaoting Rose.

.

Not long after, Gao Yuan, who had put on his wedding clothes, appeared in front of everyone again. He was seen off by Mia Shidong and walked straight into the church. Gao Yuan stood upright in front of the Heavenly Father and the Holy Mother.

In front of the statue and the archbishop, he stared straight at the church door that was about to be pushed open, because his bride would enter the sacred wedding hall from there later.

When the bride Margaery Tyrell, who was wearing ivory silk and Myr lace, was led into the church by her grandmother Lady Olenna, Gao Yuan had to admit that he had indeed been raped by his fiancée.

It's so stunning. The gauze skirt is dotted with sparkling roses. These roses are composed of gold and red silk threads and pearls, which look very cute and touching.

The bride's cloak is made of green velvet, embroidered with more than a hundred golden roses. Just like the emblem of House Tyrell: a golden rose blooming on the verdant green field.

This is the traditional clothing color of House Tyrell, which is generally considered to be very representative and recognizable.

All the lords who attended the wedding were also shocked by the beautiful bride in front of them. Many of them had seen Margaery before the wedding, but at this moment they were still stunned by her beauty and purity.

Compared with the beauty of the bride, Gao Yuan, who is wearing a dark gold double-breasted vest, looks even more extraordinary. The vest on his chest is decorated with a flying dragon with wings spread and a silver sword burning with flames.

.

Behind her is a rose gold velvet cloak decorated with the golden dragon emblem of the Evening Star. On her smooth and fluffy black hair is a crown made of pure gold. In the middle of the crown is a huge gemstone that reflects colorful light.

On both sides of the gem are two ferocious golden dragons.

The archbishop in the church came to the newlyweds wearing a silver-white crown and presided over the wedding oath ceremony between Gao Yuan and Margaret. Gao Yuan and his beautiful fiancée stood in front of the tall gilded statues of the Heavenly Father and the Virgin Mary.

In front of each other, they looked like a pair made for each other.

Gao Yuan and Margery jointly swore sevenfold marriage vows in front of the seven gods, accepted the seven layers of blessings prepared for them by the seventy-seven monks, and the couple exchanged seven promises with each other. Then the hymn was sung by the seventy-seven monks.

, but when no one comes forward to question or challenge, the time comes for the husband and wife to exchange cloaks.

Margaery knelt in front of her grandmother, and Lady Olenna Tyrell gently removed the bride's cloak for her granddaughter. Gao Yuan, with the help of Mia Shidong, took off the cloak from his shoulders and

Taking it from his hand, he stretched the cloak in his hand as much as possible.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and then Gao Yuan used the rose gold velvet cloak in his hand to wrap up the bride Margaery. He leaned forward and almost hugged Margaery into his arms, and the thin belt of the cloak was covered by

Tie to the golden buttons on the bride's shoulders.

This will mean that from now on, Gao Yuan will replace the Tyrell family and forever protect her, Margaery Tyrell.

"Through this kiss, I will give you almost all my love!" Gao Yuan announced loudly to the bride and the guests present.

In response, Margery raised her lovely head, and her white neck and chest were also displayed in front of Gao Yuan. Gao Yuan hugged her into his arms and had an affectionate and long-lasting kiss.

of kiss.

After the passionate kiss, the Archbishop solemnly announced to the guests and the newlyweds: Gao Yuan and Margaery of the Tyrell family will be one body, one mind and one soul from now on.

At the end of the wedding ceremony, the newlyweds Gao Yuan and Margaery led the procession out of the church. Mia Shidong and Sir Garland Tyrell followed closely behind, holding baskets in their hands and throwing flower petals for them. Next is

Lady Olenna, supported by Ser Nestor, hobbled behind with a cane in one hand. She was also closely protected by two twin guards.

As soon as they walked out of the door of the church, a wave of cheers rang out in the garden in front of the church. After all, the church where the wedding was held was too small to accommodate everyone who came to the Eagle's Nest City to attend the wedding.

Therefore, those nobles who were not qualified to enter the church to witness the wedding with their own eyes chose to stand in the garden outside the church, waiting for their respected Lord Gao Yuan to appear in front of them holding his beautiful bride.

Surrounded by the blessing eyes and waves of cheers from the many guests, Margaery Tyrell held her husband's arms and walked through them with a smile of happiness and satisfaction on her face. Every one of them

The guests who admired the bride's delicate face up close couldn't help but exclaimed in amazement.

The couple walked into the long and newly decorated hall of the Eagle's Nest City. Mia Shidong had just led the servants and maids of the Eagle's Nest City to dress the place extremely gorgeous and festive. Originally on the high platform

The weirwood throne had long been removed and replaced by two high-backed chairs made of aged oak.

Gao Yuan and Margery stood on the high platform at the end of the hall, waiting for the wedding guests to enter. After everyone entered the hall, Gao Yuan came to the crowd alone and pulled out the Blade of the Evening Star from his waist. He

He raised the Blade of Evening Star high above his head, and the sword soon ignited a flame that reached into the sky.

Then he inserted the flaming Blade of the Evening Star into the brazier in front of him, and immediately announced to everyone that the wedding banquet had begun. The wedding ceremony was extremely spectacular and lengthy, but before the wedding banquet actually started, there were actually many things waiting for it.

The couple is done.

The first thing they had to face was the blessings from the guests. The first person to come to the stage was the bride's grandmother. Lady Olenna was supported by Ser Garland Tyrell and came to the front of the couple. She hugged her affectionately.

He met Gao Yuan and kissed Margaery on both cheeks, wishing his granddaughter a long and happy marriage with Gao Yuan.

The bride's brother was the one to give his blessing. Sir Garland stepped forward and gave his brother-in-law a huge hug, and then casually kissed his sister on the cheek.

People waiting to give blessings to the newlyweds lined up in the hall for a long time, leaving only a very short time for everyone. Because of this, not all the guests were able to do so when they came forward to send blessings to them.

An opportunity to be as solemn as the bride's family.
