Odd Eye's
Part 32's. Wedding preparations
... ⁇ OODIE...
His talks with Madelin were just about flowers. Where is the syndication in it.
The kingdom is busy with its second wedding party.
Hanaya sat here, talking about the ornamentation of the invitation for her recipe and various other things.
"Preferably, the invitation is white written in gold ink and with the Utopia symbol decoration" the gold and white colors will be in harmony. Because the people take part and are invited to the reception, the wedding should not cost a lot for decoration. He had no intention of having a grand wedding. Just effective enough.
The status is official. And this is part of it to take care of the party alone.
"And for the decoration, I leave it to you. Make sure the banquet for the people is placed in the open"
"But it will cost a lot for this. And the queen's personal budget is 100,000 ruth. Because this is your idea then we can not ask for additional funds from the kingdom" said the palace servant a little anxious.
"Brianna will bring additional funds" Brianna understood Hanaya's intentions. The girl plans to sell a jewel from Javier's proposal for additional funds.
"For invitation wrappers, use silk as a differentiator. White color for royal officials, red for imperial guests, yellow for nobles and blue for the people. Make sure everything is sent according to the color, as well as confirm who received the invitation, make a list of names for it"
"good. Your Majesty"
"Head maid, can the royal hall be opened for this celebration?" The butler who was a man of the lungs nodded.
"Yes, queen"
"So, what if the banquet of the people is held in the palace hall, while the nobles and other guests are housed in the royal hall? What say?"
"It can be queen"
Hanaya nodded "Then has the wheat order arrived?"
"It's His Majesty"
"They've started to process it?"
"It's His Majesty"
Because this is a joint event between the nobility and the people, of course there should be no discrimination. So Hanaya must make sure the hall is open to everyone and the banquet covers the amount of capacity.
"What about wine? How much is ours?"
"Twenty barrels, Your Grace"
Twenty barrels, it's impossible to be enough.
"Send another fifteen barrels and put them in my personal budget"
The butler was surprised. Fifteen? Wine prices have been rising lately due to crop failures, ordering pure red wine has cost a lot. Not to mention silk, invitations, banquets, the cost that came out was already very much. The government gave a limited budget. Because Viviana entered the people, then their banquet, and the invitation is entirely personal dependents.
The butler was worried that this would be a waste. Viviana's 500,000 ruts may run out. Then how's the other banquet going forward?
"Your Majesty
"No need to worry about funds. I have a lot of money for that. One chest of gems if money is enough for all the costs, right?"
"One crate?" The muttered butler suddenly dizzy. Although the royal treasures are very much but pure gems as much as that would certainly make Viviana rich and have a lot of additional funds.
"Yes. That's His Majesty's dowry"
The dowry? The butler looked at Viviana's figure in astonishment. Apparently rumors about how fantastic Javier's dowry is not a mere bragging.
Silk, gems, gold bars and even the rare Archy golden bird given as dowry seemed to be true.
The emperor seemed to be crazy about this young lady. This girl, Viviana clearly showed the figure of the queen with the brilliance of the future.
If the people know all their banquets are prepared by Viviana with her personal budget, maybe Viviana will be even more admired.
"Surely, that's more than enough Your Majesty"
"Then, the financial details I leave to you"
"By the kindness of your heart, I will bear it"
***
Hanaya took a breath, leaning her back on the chair in her room. He only spent the night in the royal guest room, considering that there was no official wedding, Hanaya had not visited here officially.
Brianna herself is being sent to cash a piece of her gem.
The knock on the door made Hanaya frown, who was bothering her this late ?
In one week all preparations must be completed. Within a day, the invitation making was completed.
Hanaya is grateful that parliament accepted her request to postpone the wedding in a week. At least they don't make trouble with him. Perhaps because the improved opinion of the people about him also affects. Otherwise Hanaya would probably have been overwhelmed and missed many parts in the two days of wedding preparations.
"Greetings Your Majesty" from his badge, it looks like this man is Javier's personal bodyguard.
"Nathan, you're His Majesty's bodyguard, aren't you?"
Nathan in his shock, he nodded "Yes. That's right, Your Majesty."
"What's important to do until you get here this late?"
Hanaya gasped at Nathan's seemingly embarrassed behavior.
Was there a sentence that was meant to humiliate this man? Seems not.
"Hamba was sent to bring this to His Majesty. Bring it in"
Hanaya is surprised once two female servants appear carrying fragrances, evaporated tea, and various personal treatments.
Does the palace have relaxation as compensation for its hard work?
"This, His Majesty the emperor sent all this for you. And this is a letter to His Majesty" The corner of Hanaya's lips twitched. He received a letter from Nathan's hand that held his knees together.
"You can go. Tell His Majesty to compensate me for my hard work next time" Nathan bowed then passed. While the two servants were not ordered to prepare the bath water.
Hanaya opened the letter.
The first letter is an apology.
Sorry, I should have helped you. If you're having trouble just tell me I'll send help. I hope that the little I send will help ease your fatigue.
Ah, Javier's worried.
In fact, the wedding preparations made by him have another assessment. Let's just say it's about addition with added value anyway.
This is aimed at seeing how wisely the queen manages her finances as well as how efficient and effective her work is. The Emperor did not help. This is for the queen.
In the future there will be many delegate events or others that Hanaya must handle. At first he was a little confused, but thanks to Brianna everything became easy.
The girl had been commemorated by her father to help Viviana because Viscount Lances could not interfere.
This is the responsibility of the queen and not the daughter of the Lances family.
However, five hundred thousand ruts for funds was a trap. Decorations, banquets, invitations and additional preparations cost more than 100,000 ruths. It would be impossible without additional personal funds. And again Hanaya's goal is to get as much popular support as possible and show how capable Utopia is. So losing more than two million ruths is not a problem. Everything's balanced. He had thought about this first.
"Your Majesty, the bath water is ready"
Hanaya nodded, entering the bathroom. The scent of lavender. The therapeutic scent candle was there while the warm water sprinkled with flower petals cradled to drown.
"We're going to take off your cape" a little clumsy because someone was staring at her other than Brianna. Both of the servants were highly trained. They had no expression other than formal to make him feel calm.
The aroma that won, the temperature of the water that relaxed his body muscles made Hanaya close her eyes. Not to mention the massage with small fluctuations in the shoulders and arms cradled Hanaya to get even more closed.
"It seems like His Majesty the Emperor loves you so much that he sent this treatment secretly" the consciousness that almost disappeared was attracted instantly.
Is correct. Javier seems to be crazy about her.
"I heard your dowry was the most luxurious of all the queens that ever existed. His Majesty even sent the only golden bird of Archy that is the relic of the previous emperor to you. No one can measure how much His Majesty loves you. Many girls out there may envy you."
Is correct. The golden bird was the last dowry sent before he entered the contest. The golden bird that the previous emperor won in his first war.
The bird that is the epitome of infinite splendor.
And this boundless splendor of love made Hanaya feel a strange sensation. Not happiness, not endless eurofia, but fear
One day, if Javier doesn't love him anymore will everything be taken away until there's nothing left of him?
Because sometimes there is a point where Hanaya is frightened by one perception.
Later, if Javier no longer loves him how much influence will it have on Hanaya ?
Will he be removed easily? An unceremonious vanish like a dust whose presence is forgotten ?
Hanaya hope not.
Enough Utopia alone that does not fit the shadow, not Javier, Brianna or both parents.
Hanaya would really be stuck in a pit of despair if they did not live up to her wishes.
Can one get rid of this baseless fear? Hanaya was tired of all these prejudices and bad thoughts.
Tired of doubting Javier's infinite love.
