Abelard left Paris in secret and returned to Paris in secret. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info He stole Eloise from her uncle, who naturally wouldn't spare him. And, as soon as he returned to Paris, he heard that her uncle had come home that night, and when he found Eloise gone, he was so angry that he almost went mad, and immediately took a knife and tried to find Abelard. However, he did not find Abelard. Moreover, Abelard and his niece vanished as if they had vanished, and there was no news at all. He was so madly sad that he cried and scolded, and was so angry that he didn't get up for days. He loves his niece so much that he loves his precious daughter as much as he loves his precious daughter. When he saw her, he felt great relief, and it was as if he had lost some treasure when he could not see her. However, the daring Abelard secretly took his Eloise away. How could this not make him grieved?
When he heard this, Abelard was very worried and wary, for he knew that the priest loved his niece very much, and that he could do anything for her. I was afraid that Fulbert would come to him with a knife at some time, even if he slept at night, he was also hiding in Tibet, and he did not dare to fix himself in one place.
Of course, news of Abelard's return to Paris soon broke. Presumably, the girl's uncle already knew. However, after several days, the grief-stricken priest did not react to him in any way. He had no doubt that he would murder and frame him in any dangerous and terrible way, or even commit violence against him. But he did not, perhaps because he was afraid that it would make her niece so sad that she would never forgive him.
However, the priest's sorrow made Abelard feel remorseful, and he deeply blamed himself for not deceiving the poor old man by vile means. He knew that the old man loved his niece so much that he even valued her more than his own life. He had taken her away secretly, and was not asking for his life!, so he decided to go to her uncle and beg for his forgiveness and forgiveness, so that the matter could be taken care of, so that he could return to his hometown and bring her back to Paris.
That afternoon he came to his drawing-room, and found Mr. Fulbert sitting on the couch in a daze. I haven't seen him for more than half a year, he has aged a lot, and his slightly chubby face in the past has not only been thinned, but also looks particularly haggard and sad. So he made a very sad gesture and said to him, "Dear Mr. Fulbert, I have come to apologize to you for your forgiveness. ā
This surprised Fulbert very much, at first he wanted to kill him with a knife, or at least maim him, to relieve his hatred, but more than half a year has passed, and the deep hatred and thunderous anger have gradually subsided. But mainly for the sake of his beloved niece. He was afraid that if he hurt him, he would be bitter and hated by his niece. After all, he is the beloved lover of his niece. Moreover, he also understands Eloise's background and childhood, which makes it easy for her to commit to a man like Abelard. However, the loss of Eloise still made him extremely sad, so that for more than half a year, he was haggard, sad, and seriously ill. Although he has recovered now, the pain in his heart still cannot be healed, especially when he almost loses his face, and he does not dare to look up at people when he walks on the street. So, until now, he hadn't figured out how to deal with this incident. So, Abelard's arrival really surprised him.
He looked very tired and pitiful, and when Abelard came to apologize and intercede with him, he felt much better. He waved his hand and pointed to the couch for him to sit down.
Abelard sat down on the sofa and said very sincerely and apologetically, "I have taken Eloise to my sister's estate in Nantes, where she is living well, in a good mood, and in good spirits, and that she will soon give birth. ā
Seeing that he was silent and unresponsive, he said, "In order to seek your forgiveness, I have decided to listen to you in everything, and I will obey whatever conditions you offer." That is to say, you are the law. I will respect your opinion in everything. ā
Fulbert, however, grimaced, said, "If you really respect me, then you should ask my permission before you take off her dress." But you have deceived me, and you have been deceiving me. ā
This made Abelard feel so embarrassed and ashamed that he was ashamed of himself. But he had to endure all of this, because what he had done had hurt him severely. So, with great sorrow and self-reproach, he said, "You know, who can resist love, resist it? Under the great power of love, anything incredible can happen." Even from the very beginning of mankind, women have been able to bring down the most noble of people. In order to make up for the mistake, I can agree to even if it is excessive. I am willing to officially marry the girl I seduced. But I had one condition, and that was that the marriage should be kept secret, so as not to ruin my reputation. According to the canon laws of the time, a lowly priest like Abelard was eligible to marry, but this would have had a great impact on his teaching position and reputation. Because Pope Leo IX and Gregory VII forbade a married priest to become a priest unless his wife also became a nun.
In fact, Abelard had been hesitating for a long time about marrying Eloise. He didn't want to marry Eloise because it would cause a lot of risk and damage to his reputation. After all, he is a teacher of the church, and teachers cannot get married, and if they do, he will be expelled from the school and discredited. He didn't want to lose that position. However, if she does not marry Eloise, then she will be under the guardianship of her uncle. As long as she was in the custody of her uncle, she was not free to be with him. However, he couldn't do without her now. And more importantly, he wants the child to have a place and not fall into hell. Because religion says that illegitimate children cannot be baptized. Therefore, he thought about it again and again that he should still marry her, but with one condition. In this way, he and Eloise can continue their relationship as lovers after they are secretly married.
Fulbert did not want to marry his niece to Abelard because he was a priest in the church and had a low status, and he knew that once a man like Abelard was married, he could no longer teach in the madrasah. And once he left the madrasah, his life would change. However, this is now the case, and Eloise will soon be in production. These realities are something he can't change. So, he thought, since they've come this far, that's all they can do. Although Abelard is not a rich man, he is also a well-known person in France and Paris, and if he really loves Eloise, it will be a good result to let Eloise live a stable and decent life. So, when he heard that Abelard had offered to marry Eloise, he was finally relieved. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Very good, as long as you are officially married, I will no longer pursue and care about your past." I agree to your request, and for the sake of affection and my niece, I am willing to keep your marriage a secret. ā
Fulbert immediately asked Ramani to bring pen and paper and asked Abelard to write the agreement. Abelard immediately wrote an agreement, which read: "In order to make amends for the wrongs he has committed in the past, Monsieur Abelard agrees to marry Miss Eloise." But in order to ensure that Mr. Abelard's reputation would not be damaged, Mr. Fulbert promised not to reveal the official marriage to outsiders. Then, sign your name at the bottom of the agreement and hand it to Fulbert.
Fulbert read the agreement and signed it below.
But Abelard, fearing that Fulbert would break the contract, said, "For the sake of the seriousness of the agreement and not to be violated, I would like to ask the gentleman to kiss the agreement." "The kiss seal agreement is a more serious and solemn way of implementing the agreement. Because agreements are sometimes easy to violate.
Fulbert hesitated, and kissed the entente as Albert had requested.
