Chapter 650: The Inquisition Behind the Scenes
"Critical place?" Leo couldn't help laughing, not because of the story itself, but because Leo suddenly found that the girl in front of him was really cute when she was telling the story seriously.
Bella didn't notice Leo's thoughts, and continued the story.
After the cat demon was burned to death, and the lady who gave birth to the cat demon also committed suicide, the other mother and son naturally became the final victors.
Nineteen years later, after the dying Bonaparte I finally fell ill and died, the young prince ascended to the throne as the new king of France.
The old Bonaparte I, though he had been a man of arms, had always been very kind and tolerant to his subordinates and subjects, while the young king, in contrast to his father, was a very hot-tempered, moody, and overjoyed emperor, who not only built a large number of palaces for his personal enjoyment, but also waged wars against foreign countries, most of which ended in failure.
The original good situation of the Kingdom of France fell day by day under the toss of the king, and the Kingdom of France also changed from the original rich country to the people's livelihood withering and resentment, and when all the contradictions and crises were about to completely erupt, an old palace maid suddenly quietly came to the prime minister's mansion at that time and told the prime minister a shocking conspiracy.
It turned out that the so-called "cat demon" back then turned out to be a big scam.
In fact, the lady who had died had given birth to a very healthy and normal boy, but the boy had just fallen to the ground, and the midwives who had been bribed quietly transferred him with a kitten that was also newborn.
The prince who was transferred did not know that the fate that awaited him was death, and that the old court maid was the executioner of this cruel method. With the cooperation of her comrades, she quietly took the infant prince out of the palace, but hesitated at the last moment.
It was precisely because of the kindness in her heart that the old palace maid did not kill the little prince, but secretly put him at the door of an orphanage in Paris City, and the little prince grew up in the orphanage until today.
The Prime Minister's shock at that time can be imagined, you must know that if what the old palace maid said is true, then this prince who was stolen by the cat demon is actually the one who should inherit the throne according to the principle of "primogeniture/female inheritance" promulgated by Bonaparte I.
As you can imagine, the Prime Minister found out the truth and, with the support of the nobles, overthrew the tyrant and proclaimed the prince who had grown up in an orphanage as emperor, and that prince was Bonaparte II.
It was also under the hard work of Bonaparte II that the power of the Kingdom of France was reversed step by step, laying a solid foundation for a two-hundred-year inheritance.
"Not bad, very interesting story." Leo nodded and said, "Then the question is, what role does the Inquisition play in this matter?" ”
Bella glanced at Leo, then smiled: "The story mentioned above is actually the version recorded by our François royal family itself, and the version I see here is basically the same as that version, but it is very different. ”
"Oh?" Leo said: "What's the difference? ”
Bella said, "It's different from the identity of the person. According to the records of this document in my possession, the kind palace maid who let my ancestor go back then was actually a secret agent arranged by the Inquisition in the palace of Paris. ”
"What?" Leo's eyes widened involuntarily: "There is still such a thing?" ”
"That's right." Bella nodded: "Actually, it's not just the palace maid, the orphanage where Bonaparte II lived and grew up, its director is also a secret agent of the Inquisition, so Bonaparte II has actually received training and education to become a king in the future during his time in the orphanage." In addition, the housekeeper in the Prime Minister's Mansion at that time was also a secret agent of the Inquisition, otherwise, how could an old palace maid meet the Prime Minister of the Kingdom and have the opportunity to tell the secret alone? ”
Leo was really surprised: "It turns out that the truth of the matter is like this, in this case, then the Inquisition is not the savior of your Bonaparte?" After all, if the Inquisition hadn't found out about it, I'm afraid your Kingdom of France would have perished long ago under the rule of that tyrant. ”
"Yes." Bella laughed, "So you see, you've always said that your inquisition is doing some sneaky and shady things, but I actually think they've done a lot of good things, haven't they?" ”
"A good thing?" Leo shrugged his shoulders and said, "But I don't believe that the seniors of the Inquisition at that time were just going to do good deeds, if they really wanted to do good deeds, then they should have told the truth of the matter as early as the night when the cat demon changed the crown prince, that is, when Bonaparte I was still alive and Bonaparte II's biological mother had not committed suicide." ”
To Leo's surprise, Bella nodded in agreement with Leo's opinion: "You're not wrong at all, Leo. Judging from the notebook in my possession, the real reason why the Inquisition decided to expose this matter was because they discovered that the tyrant was secretly supporting the followers of the dark sect. So in order to stop his support for the dark believers, they told the truth of the matter. ”
When Leo heard that this was indeed the case, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Look, I'll just say-"
Leo was in the middle of his sentence when he was interrupted by Bela.
"Leo, I think your idea may be a little skewed." Bella blinked a pair of big beautiful eyes and looked at Leo seriously: "That's right, the predecessors of those inquisition did not tell the truth more than twenty years late, and their purpose was not to help us Bonaparte. But the important thing is that we, the Bonapartes, have survived because of what they have done, and it can be said that they have saved not only our Bonaparte, but also the fate of the Kingdom of France. So whatever their original intentions, they are the saviors of our Bonaparte family and the Kingdom of France. ”
Leo was stunned for a long time by saying this: "It seems that what you said is really like this—then again, dear Bella, when did you become this philosophical look?" I always feel that this style of painting is wrong. ”
Bella snorted, pointed at Leo's nose with a green jade point, and said coquettishly, "I'm not one of those useless vases, people know a lot." ”
Leo was so disgusted by the beauty in front of him that he couldn't help but reach out and wrap his arms around Bela's slender waist, and said with a smile: "Yes, after all, my Bela is a beautiful woman who is both beautiful and useful." ”
Before she knew it, Leo's hands were starting to roam over some sensitive parts of Bela's body again, causing the beautiful woman to snort.
"No, don't touch it! You scoundrel, didn't you just just - "
"Hehe, Bella, haven't you heard the phrase 'youth is capital'? Anyway, no one will come to this building for a few days when the birds don't, so I think we might as well be here-"
"But—but—"
The girl's faint protest was soon drowned out, and the bookshelves began to shake regularly, and bursts of suppressed but irrepressible moans and wheezing quietly echoed in the hall.
