Chapter 467 Heavenly Tragedy 32
Also known as "Marriage is the Grave of Love" Zhang Baotong 2016.7.4
When the next morning came, almost the entire city gathered in front of Abelard's door. Writing, Fun, and Pavilion www.biquge.info they inquired about each other and talked about it. They were stunned when they heard that the famous Parisian scholar and celebrity Abelard had been castrated. So, they sang lamentations to show their sympathy and comfort to him. As everyone knows, this noise made the extremely painful and irritable Abelard even more painful and irritable. In particular, the scholars and clergy of higher positions than him comforted him with their chattering and unbearable sighs and cries, which made him even more impatient. For their sympathy would make him feel more unbearable than the pain of his body's wounds.
In fact, the shame he felt far outweighed the physical damage. He kept thinking that it was because of the glory that he had forgotten him, and now, he had planted a big heel, and the glory was all gone in an instant. Evil then came. Because he saw how justly God was punishing him. That organ of his body was punished for his sin. He could even think of why Pamelera betrayed him, because he had already betrayed himself first, so Pamelera betrayed him, so he was just in betraying him. He figured that his rivals would certainly take advantage of the incident to make a big splash. And how much pain and lasting grief this shame has caused to his family, relatives and friends. This amazing and angry story will soon spread throughout the world, and he will be laughed at.
He thought the tragedy could have been avoided. On that occasion, he should have made the truth of the matter clear, and if Fulbert had known that he had only let Eloise stay in the convent for two months to avoid the rumors, he might not have done this to him. However, he was too arrogant and refused to bow his head in front of him to show weakness, but wanted to suppress him and teach him a lesson. Therefore, the contradictions have intensified, and today's tragedy has emerged.
Abelard is well aware that he has been ruined. Previously, his life and career were smooth and smooth, and he had a good reputation and a lot of fame. However, this appalling incident was simply a great shame, which he could not bear and could not face. The physical pain was secondary, and the important thing was that his soul had been fatally hit. Thinking of the Bible's description of eunuchs as "evil against God, forbidden to church, like filthy and smelly monsters," Abelard felt that his good name and all his glory were gone. There was darkness in front of him.
Then his pupil said to him, "Sir, we have brought your wife, Madame Eloise. She's coming in to see you. ”
He was suddenly startled, and quickly waved his hand, saying, "You tell him, let her leave immediately." ”
But Eloise had rushed in like madness, crying out, "Abelard, my love, my husband, what is the matter with you?" and threw herself by his bedside, and took one of his hands and laid it on her tear-stained face.
Abelard hadn't visited her for two weeks since they had been together. And she didn't hear from him, which made it difficult for her to sleep in the gloomy monastery. Just when she couldn't resist the desire to return to Paris to find her lover, she received the news that she almost collapsed: Abelard had her genitals cut off by Fulbert!
This shocking event made her feel like the sky had fallen for a moment, and she cried out, "My Abelard, my poor love." ”
However, Abelard hurriedly withdrew his hand from her hand, and said very coldly, "Miss, you are not needed here, please go out?" He is already a wasted person, and it is impossible to bring her any more joy and happiness. Therefore, he simply wanted to break up with her. And he is not a man anymore, not to mention that he is worthy of a young and beautiful Parisian talent, but he is not even worthy of an ordinary woman, so he doesn't want to be involved with her anymore.
In fact, in his heart, he hated this young talented woman and beauty. Because it was she who seduced him, and caused him to cut off his whole thing. In this regard, he is selfish, just as after Adam was seduced by Eve, God asked Adam why, and Adam put all the blame on Eve. The reason why he is like this is because the superiority of patriarchal ideas is at work in his heart. Although he said that he was guilty and that his fall was God's just punishment, he kept thinking in his heart: Eloise, you made me sin.
Eloise, however, cried and cried, and held his head and kissed him and comforted him. Her persistence and comfort made him immediately reduce his blame and resentment towards her. Because he could truly feel that her love for him was deep and heartfelt. So, instead of driving her away, he made her sit on the edge of his bed, guarding him and watching over him.
Someone came to report that the Church had sent for the arrest of the perpetrators, and that a sentence had been handed down to death for Pamelera and another servant of the Fulbert family, that their eyes would be gouged out, and that they would be tortured. Fulbert was sentenced to permanent expulsion and exile, which was to be carried out in the afternoon.
Hearing this, Eloise was heartbroken. Both the perpetrators and the victims were her closest relatives. And how could it not make her sad and sad that such an incident had happened to her two dearest relatives? But she could not understand why her uncle had done such a murder to Abelard? In order to express her indignation and comfort to Abelard, she said to Abelard, "I will go home and curse my uncle for his shameless and cruel deeds." ”
Eloise almost trotted all the way back to her uncle's house. At this time, my uncle was sitting on the sofa in the living room, with his head in his hands, and a look of chagrin, while several people were guarding him, probably the one who was going to evict him. She rushed to her uncle like crazy, and cried and asked, "Why did you kill my lover, why did you hurt him in such a shameless and murderous way?
The uncle was clearly deeply remorseful for the sins he had committed in his rage. Looking at his beloved niece in such a pitiful way, he felt ashamed. He lowered his head, did not dare to look at his niece, and was speechless.
Eloise said, "Aren't you afraid of going to hell, not of dying without a place to be buried?" and then she wept bitterly, and left the home that had given her so much love and hatred.
In the days that followed, Eloise stood by Abelard's bedside day and night, taking care of her husband like a diligent and dutiful wife. Abelard's mood is very unstable, sometimes calm, sometimes mild, sometimes irritable, sometimes angry. But no matter what, Eloise endured in silence, and she wanted to comfort him with everything she had, to dissolve and reduce the pain and sorrow in his heart, so that he could cheer up.
It was the autumn of 1118. At this time, Abelard was not yet forty years old, and Eloise was not yet eighteen. Eloise and Abelard tearfully preached when they were discussing their marriage at the Rose Manor, "We will both be ruined." Her words were truly fulfilled.
