Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

Chapter 821 Grand Ceremony

Today, the outside of Kremlin Palace is still as solemn and solemn as ever.

What is special is that it is not open to tourists today, and no one else is allowed to enter or exit. It is said that there are some important activities inside.

Located in the center of the Kremlin Palace, the Cathedral of the Annunciation has long been repainted, with white outer walls and golden domes.

A long red carpet was laid outside the church and directly into the church hall.

On both sides of the red carpet stood two rows of honor guards wearing red dresses and tall gold-plated red hats.

This kind of honor guard dress is rare. It is not the kind at the military parade, nor is it the kind of guard when Puding was sworn in at the Kremlin Palace. Instead, it looks a bit like the guard in the imperial palace during the Tsarist Russia era.

I have to say that the Kremlin also spent some thought on today's ceremony.

The honor guard dressed up in this way will neither appear arrogant nor lose its dignity and grandeur.

Highlights a festive moment!

Because Rosiana and Mikhail's current identities are not simple, coupled with the complicated relationships and exchanges of interests behind them, today's engagement ceremony is particularly important.

Through this engagement ceremony, all forces have their demands and are showing some attitudes.

It is not an easy task to satisfy several forces.

It is estimated that in the past week or so, Gebrev has almost lost all his hair...

…………

Wang Ye's motorcade has the "privilege" today. It can drive directly to the front of the Annunciation Cathedral, and then walk on the red carpet into the church hall.

There are two processes in today's ceremony.

The first process will be relatively brief, which is for Rosiana to inherit the title of Grand Duke.

This can be regarded as the official announcement of the "return" of the Romanov family.

Then came the engagement ceremony of the two, which was the highlight of the day!

In the first process, Rosiana was the protagonist, and Wang Ye just watched from the side.

On the surface, it seems as if Rosiana is the "center" of the day because she is present throughout.

But in fact, everyone knows very well that if it weren't for Mikhail, if it weren't for the fact that Rosiana was getting engaged to Mikhail, not to mention whether today's ceremony would have been so grand, or even It’s hard to say whether it will be held...

When Wang Ye's motorcade arrived at the small square in front of the church, he saw that many guests had already arrived.

Basically, the people who came knew each other, and they were just in a small circle. The number of people was not large, and only a hundred or so were invited from both sides.

Last night I heard from Rosiana that the British, Spanish and Danish royal families readily accepted the Romanov family's invitation and sent quite important representatives to attend the ceremony.

For example, the British royal family sent Prince Charles, who is the first in line to succeed and is commonly known as the "Prince". He can be said to be a heavyweight.

The people sent by other royal families were also first-ranked grassroots people. It was obvious that they did not look down on the "relatives" of the Romanov family who suddenly appeared.

Of course, it is also possible that they know that the Romanov family is about to welcome a "husband-in-law", so they intend to make good friends.

…………

When Wang Ye's motorcade stopped, everyone outside the church looked over.

They are all old acquaintances, and everyone knows that today's "rightful owner" has arrived!

Sure enough, when the car door opened, Wang Ye bent down and jumped out.

Immediately, several old friends came up quickly, including Shao Yigu and Korokoli.

Shao Yigu took the lead, hugged Wang Ye vigorously, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, Misha, today is your big day! I'll make up for the gift later."

Korokoli also had a smile on his face, "Sure enough, you and Rosiana got together. I told Shao Yigu a long time ago that you two are a perfect match. But I didn't expect that Rosiana turned out to be a member of the Romanov family. A descendant of a grand duke! Then you two are even more suitable, haha."

With a shy smile on his face, Wang Ye responded: "Her family identity was only known in the past few days, but it is not important. After all, the Romanov dynasty has long been in the past, and now it is just a false name. .”

While standing outside chatting with a few old friends, Gebrev hurriedly walked out of the church.

"Misha, please go in quickly. The title succession ceremony will begin soon. We are waiting for you!"

After speaking, he stretched out his right arm to signal Wang Ye to walk onto the red carpet.

Wang Ye straightened his clothes and stepped onto the red carpet. The honor guards on both sides raised their rifles with wooden rifles and raised their chins high with a "swish" sound.

Walking on the red carpet with slow and slow steps, Wang Ye felt a little strange in his heart.

There are not many people in the venue today, but the "all the attention" and the slow sense of ceremony are also a bit exciting...

Except for Wang Ye, who entered on the red carpet, everyone else entered the church hall through the side door.

…………

This church doesn't look big from the outside, but the hall is also very empty and the interior decoration is also very unique.

Highlights a magnificent brilliance!

Everything you see is glittering with gold...

The decorations and murals on the walls are all gold-plated on the outside, and the chandelier above the head is also shining with gold. I don't know if it is made of pure gold.

Even a few doors are golden from top to bottom. They should be covered with a layer of gold foil...

Under the light, it's really a bit dazzling.

After walking in, Wang Ye found that everyone was basically there.

Puding, the Patriarch, Gryzlov, Konstantin, Hovchenko, Rosiana, etc., all stood in front of a small stage in the deepest part of the hall.

The small stage with the same red carpet should be where the ceremony was held. A red curtain hung behind the stage with a golden double-headed eagle emblem embroidered on it!

Seeing Wang Ye coming in, Rosiana quickly waved her hand and motioned for him to walk over.

Wang Ye quickly came to her, said hello to the elders next to him, turned to look at Rosiana, and said with a smile: "You are very beautiful today!"

This is not flattery by Wang Ye, it is indeed his sincerity.

Today's Rosiana is dressed completely differently than usual!

Her dress today should be the royal dress style of Tsarist Russia.

Her hair was pulled up into a thick and long braid, a snow-white mink shawl was draped over her shoulders, and she was wearing a floor-length gown that looked very grand!

There are diamond jewelry hanging on the ears, neck, and chest, and they are not the small-carat jewelry worn by ordinary people. They are all large diamonds spliced ​​and inlaid together, the kind that can blind people's eyes...

This kind of jewelry cannot be worn normally because it is too eye-catching and too expensive!

But on today's occasion, it is very appropriate. It is probably one of the dowries provided by the Romanov family to give Rosiana...

…………

The patriarch is an old man in his seventies. He is also wearing a solemn robe and a tall pointed hat on his head. He has a very kind face.

He was discussing something in a low voice with Pu Ding. When he saw Wang Ye just now, he just smiled and nodded without saying anything.

Constantine was standing on the other side, talking to a few people. According to Rosiana, the people over there were "relatives" of her family.

That is, the royal representatives of other European countries.

But there was no time for Wang Ye to get to know them, because the ceremony was about to begin.

This is the "territory" of the Patriarch, so he took the lead on the small stage and waved to everyone.

The hall immediately fell silent, and everyone looked at the Patriarch and listened to his speech.

“Dear guests, we are all here today to celebrate something joyful.

That is, the engagement of Mikhail and Rosiana.

But before they get engaged, let us witness together the ceremony of Rosiana inheriting the title of Grand Duke of the Romanov family..."

Wang Ye squeezed Rosiana's arm encouragingly and motioned for her to come up.

Rosiana lifted up her skirt slightly, took small steps, and stepped onto the small stage.

The atmosphere in the hall was very solemn, everyone remained quiet and stared ahead.

The patriarch waved his hand to one side, and immediately three people filed onto the small stage and stood next to the patriarch.

Each of these three people held a large tray in their hands. The trays were covered with black velvet covers, and they didn't know what was inside.

A smile appeared on the Patriarch's face and he said loudly:

“The things in here once belonged to the Romanov family. Later, after your family disappeared, they were collected in a museum in the Kremlin Palace.

Now that your family has reappeared, it's time to return the property to its original owner. "

As he spoke, he lifted up the first tray, revealing the contents.

When they saw what was on the tray, many people in the audience subconsciously exclaimed.

Even Wang Ye opened his eyes wide because there was a crown in the tray!

A crown made entirely of large diamonds!

On top of this diamond crown, there is also a huge ruby...

This thing can no longer be measured in terms of money, because it is a symbol of imperial power!

The Patriarch lifted the cover of the second tray, and the items inside seemed less eye-catching than the diamond crown.

This is a dark golden "little stick" with a cross shape at the top, and three of the shorter heads are three crystal clear sapphires.

It doesn't seem too inconspicuous.

But those who truly know its value understand the value of this thing.

After seeing these two things, many people already have the answer in their minds as to what the third thing is.

Sure enough, when the Patriarch lifted the cover of the third tray, what appeared in front of everyone was a golden "egg"...

…………

The Patriarch held the diamond crown in his hands and stood in front of Rosiana.

There was no need for him to speak, Rosiana quickly bent slightly and lowered her head.

The Patriarch put the diamond crown on Rosiana's head, then took the golden scepter and golden egg and handed them to Rosiana.

Then he backed away slowly, giving up the entire stage to Rosiana.

Because this moment belongs to Rosiana!

Wearing a crown on his head, a golden egg in his left hand, and a scepter in his right hand...

This was the "standard configuration" when the emperor ascended the throne during the Tsarist Russia period!

At this moment, Rosiana seemed to "overlap" with a woman from her ancestors, that was Emperor Catherine the Great!

When Catherine the Great came to the throne, she was just like Rosiana today.

They are all so beautiful and dazzling!

Wang Ye stood in the audience, looking at Rosiana on the stage, a little lost in thought.

All the guests in the audience bowed slightly to express their respect and congratulations to Grand Duke Rosiana.

No matter what some people think in their hearts, superficial etiquette is still indispensable...

Rosiana stood on the stage holding the scepter and golden egg in her hand. Seeing so many top figures below bowing to congratulate her, she didn't know what it felt like.

The crown on top of her head was very "weighty" and it pressed heavily, making her neck a little uncomfortable.

But obviously she doesn't care about this anymore.

I just feel that something subtle, like energy, is slowly pouring into my body...

In the audience, Constantine whispered to Wang Ye: "This is the dowry I prepared for Rosiana. Are you satisfied?"

Wang Ye was speechless...

What a joke!

These three things are not things that can be measured in money!

I can only say it is too expensive...

I wonder how much the old fox Constantine paid in order to "get" these three things back from the Kremlin!

However, these three things are of greater significance than reality. They can only be regarded as family heirlooms. They have little daily use, and they are even less likely to be liquidated...

If you dare to sell this thing, it will probably spread all over the world soon...

………………

After the ceremony, the Patriarch, Puding and Gryzlov went on stage together and stood next to Rosiana.

Pu Ding had a bright smile on his face and said loudly: "Next, let us witness the engagement of Deputy Speaker Mikhail and Grand Duke Rosiana. Before the ceremony begins, I want to ask if anyone Object? If no one objects at this time, the ceremony will officially begin!"

Naturally, no one in the audience raised any objections.

Just kidding, if you make trouble on this occasion, you really think you are living too comfortably...

After all, today is just an engagement ceremony, not a real wedding, so the process is relatively simple.

After Puding finished his brief speech, the Patriarch and Gryzlov said a few blessings respectively.

Then the "parents" of both parties, namely Konstantin and Hovchenko, were invited to the stage to deliver speeches.

The two of them didn't say much, they simply wished Rosiana and Wang Ye happiness in the future.

Next, it's Wang Ye's turn to take the stage!

With one step, Wang Ye stepped onto the small stage and came to Rosiana.

Kneeling down on one knee, he raised his head and looked at Rosiana affectionately, took her left hand and kissed it first.

Then he took out a ring from his pocket and put it on her hand.

Looking down at Wang Ye's actions, Rosiana cried with joy.

Don't get me wrong, it's not because the engagement ring Wang Ye gave her is so beautiful...

This ring is really amazing though!

This is a pink diamond of nearly 20 carats, shining with a charming pink color. It is no exaggeration to say that this is the real "pigeon egg"!

For this ring, Wang Ye commissioned Miss He to find it all over the world.

The rough diamond weighs fifty carats. In order to achieve the ultimate color and quality, up to two-thirds of the rough stone is lost during the cutting process.

The cost is as high as 30 million US dollars...

Wang Ye is not a stingy person. For his fiancée, and it is such a grand occasion, he will certainly not let her lose face.

Rosiana pulled Wang Ye up with a little force, and then handed him the scepter in her hand...
