Chapter 241: Invitation
In the eyes of the outside world, what has happened in the past few days is a different story. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After winning the duel, the Divine Favor went straight to the Temple of Divine Grace and stayed in the temple for the next few days. Let the people who have been waiting outside the Grace House for many days or want to find him bad luck, or want to get in touch with him, will return in vain.
Some people may ask, this Leo is a member of the church, and the church is on the same page as the royal family, how can anyone want to take the initiative to move closer to Leo?
The reason is actually simple, you must know that the Spany Empire is known as the first power on the mainland, whether it is the economy, population or army, it can be called the crown of the continent, so it also has a huge bureaucratic system.
Someone once calculated that there were tens of thousands of people with official positions working for the empire from the prime minister down, and if you count the deputies and subordinates of these officials, this number is even more than ten times more.
However, although there are thousands of large and small official positions in this empire, most of them are firmly held by the royal family and some powerful big families, and it is extremely difficult for small and medium-sized families to get a piece of the pie, and there is no room for interference in key positions at all, let alone ordinary people.
Therefore, if many people who have no background and have nothing to do with those high-ranking elites do not want to bury their skills, in addition to abandoning their pen and following Rong, another way out is to join the church.
The Church of Light has been developing in the Spany Empire for more than three hundred years since its founding
"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and where there is a road, there is a cathedral."
No matter how remote and poor the empire is, as long as there is access to the road, the church will set up a diocese and send priests there, and the poor people need faith as a consolation, so the more poor people come to believe in the church.
Today, the number of believers in the church in the Spany Empire has reached millions, accounting for nearly half of the entire empire's population, and such a huge size makes the church firmly rooted in the land of the empire like a thousand-year-old tree, and it can be called flesh and blood with the Spany Empire.
Therefore, even as the emperor of the first empire in the world, Charles XVI did not dare to openly tear his face with the church without being completely sure. Otherwise, not only will the Spany Empire suffer the biggest civil strife since the founding of the country, but it may even be wiped out.
Therefore, from the point of view of faith and future, it is really not a bad choice for these people who come from poor backgrounds and have no way to serve the country, even now when it is known that His Majesty the Emperor hates the Church. No matter how much His Majesty the Emperor hates the Church, no one knows that His Majesty can only do verbal work.
In addition, Emmanuel was originally the biggest favorite to compete for the throne, so the name of the great prince can be said to be known to everyone in Ridmar City, and such a person was defeated by Leo's hands in a duel, which caused a sensation.
Therefore, since Leo led the church delegation to live in the Grace Courtyard, there are simply too many people who come to visit every day to break through the threshold of the gate of the Grace Courtyard, and even many small and medium-sized aristocratic families in Ridmar City have sent invitations, these people are nothing more than trying to take the opportunity to befriend Leo, a big celebrity in the church, so as to gain the favor of the church.
You must know that the church has also taken root in the Spanny Empire for three hundred years, and if there is no one in the court who has something to say, who will believe it? Therefore, in the eyes of these small and medium-sized aristocratic families, maybe through the way of the church, they can also make their own family develop in the empire!
If these people who don't know the inside story knew that Pope Enhil actually regarded Leo, a god, as a thorn in the flesh in his heart, they probably wouldn't think so.
"Hell!" Leo watched Morata, who was holding the invitation in his hand, push the door in, and couldn't help but feel a big headache in his heart: "Didn't I already tell you, whether it's a bullshit pious disciple, or a baron, a viscount or an earl, in short, I don't see it all!" ”
Obviously, although Leo deliberately hid in the Grace Chamber, he still bothered these invitations in the past few days.
Not only are these invitations signed differently, but they are also very diverse. Attending banquets is commonplace, and there are activities such as bullfighting, horse racing, hunting, etc., and even many aristocratic ladies and even ladies send henchmen to send invitations, which are all requests to meet in a secret place, and the peach color in it is straight from the text of the invitation, and it can't be concealed.
So at first, Leo was still interested in reading the invitations one by one and replying to them one by one, but soon the young goddess grew bored with the matter, and after a few days, he even got a headache at the first sight of the invitation.
So Leo simply left all these things to Morata, and hid in the room alone in the name of cultivation.
Morata was sweating profusely at the moment, and it was clear that dealing with the mountain of invitations was not an easy task for him. Hearing this, he didn't defend himself but smiled helplessly: "My lord, of course I don't dare not take your words to heart, but the identity of the owner of this invitation is really unusual, you better take a look for yourself." With that, he handed over the invitation.
"Huh?" Leo was slightly stunned and accepted the invitation. The cover of this invitation is quite exquisitely made, and the materials used are all rare and exquisite, and the invitation itself is worth a lot of money, which can be called a valuable work of art.
"Which big family sent this?" Leo was secretly surprised in his heart, and stretched out his hand to open the invitation, what was written on it was ordinary, it was nothing more than inviting Leo to the banquet, and stating that this time only the owner of the invitation and Leo were the two of them. But when Leo saw the signature at the end of the invitation, his whole body couldn't help but be shocked, and his surprise was beyond words.
There was such a name written on it in a dignified way: Cleverley Charles Lean.
After a few days of Daisy's teaching in the Inquisition, Leo was no longer the ignorant boy who knew nothing about the great men of the Empire, and Leo could no longer have known what the name meant.
The name is divided into three sections, Cleverley is the name of the owner of the invitation, Charles in the middle shows that this person's mother is from the current imperial royal family - the Charles family, and the last Lean represents that the blood in his body is from the Golden Lion family, which is not inferior even compared to the royal family!
Judging from the information Leo has read about the Golden Lion Family, this Cleverley is the ultimate winner of this generation of lions' plan and the only candidate for the next Duke of Lean.
And speaking of Leo, there is also some relationship between Leo and this Cleverley, it is precisely because he met Cleverley's own brother in the Lito Mountains, who was expelled from the Golden Lion Family by Cleverley's treacherous schemes, and had to switch to Antonidas, the official bishop under the church, that Leo's entire life trajectory has taken a 180-degree turn, and Leo is in such a situation today.
Leo took a deep breath and subconsciously glanced out the window. Cleverley's appointment was at night, and the sun was just setting.
"Tell the person who sent me this invitation that I agreed to this date." For some reason, Leo's voice sounded a little hoarse.
