Chapter 391: The Imperial City Takes the Throne 45
The high priest knew that Qiu Yue must have gone to the temple, and it was only a matter of time.
He closed the door for the two of them, and by the way, he breathed outside the house, and the crescent moon in the sky emitted a soft and cold light, and the sound of insects peculiar to summer was endless, and now he didn't feel irritated when he heard it.
The guards around him all looked at him with a look of resemblance and adoration, although under Luo Jia's orders, he should be a prisoner at this time, but the faith has been deeply rooted in these people, and he is like a god in another sense for the existence of these fools, so it is natural to be worshipped.
And what he had to do was to perpetuate this faith, and he smiled holy, waved his hand at the guards, and he could see them bowing happily to him, as if he had received a supreme gift.
Of course, it is a supreme gift to be favored by him.
Not long after he came out, a violent argument broke out in the room, and Luo Jia's low angry voice came out in displeasure, "Are you crazy? Isn't it like you're going to that place?! I don't promise! ”
Immediately afterwards, Qiu Yue retorted with righteous words, "I'm not crazy!" Luo Jia, the current situation is extremely unfavorable for you, and with the support of the temple, your chances of ascending to the throne will be greater! ”
"Do I mean to sacrifice you when I ascend the throne?" Luo Jia's voice was sad and indignant, and a little sad.
The high priest listened to it outside, and he had a slight complaint about this sentence, what does it mean to sacrifice Qiu Yue? Let him go to the temple, and naturally treat her as a guest. How do you make it look like he's a trafficker who misleads the flower girl?
This kid still has a lot of hostility towards the temple~ The high priest suddenly realized that if Luo Jia was allowed to ascend the throne, the position of the temple would definitely become very embarrassing, and it would definitely be suppressed.
The high priest was thinking again, for the sake of one Qiu Yue, it was not the right thing to pull the people of the entire temple into dire straits? As the high priest, he should have let the temple flourish, but now, he has put the cart before the horse......
But. So what? The good times of the temple have passed for too long. Didn't they claim to be God's messengers to save the people from their misery? In this case, it is also necessary to share weal and woe with the people, and it should have been suppressed. For those people. Maybe you can better understand the suffering of the people.
The High Priest thought heartlessly. Enthusiastic fans who really sympathize with the high priest should have such a spiritual leader.
The two men in the room argued for a while before they gradually calmed down. The high priest turned to look at the room that had calmed down, and when he saw a slightly thin figure getting closer and closer in front of the door, the high priest knew that the matter had come to an end, and that this result should satisfy him, and that was exactly what it was.
When Qiu Yue opened the door, he saw the high priest standing with his hands in his hands, his pure white priestly robe with his long golden hair, looking holy and noble, and his handsome appearance added a lot to this sacred picture.
Qiu Yue looked a little stupid for a while, I have to say that the high priest is too suitable to be a god, and he was born with a dignified face, and he is indeed unlikable from the inside out, and it is understandable to be regarded as a demon.
"Is there a result?" The high priest walked over and smiled at Qiu Yue.
Qiu Yue suddenly came back to his senses from his thoughts, and when he watched the high priest show him a harmless smile at him, his eyelids twitched, he pursed his lower lip slightly, and then nodded: "There is a result, I will go back to the temple with you." ”
As he expected, the high priest's smile deepened, and he looked through Qiu Yue at Luo Jia, who was looking at him with a gloomy face, smiled, and said, "Prince, please rest assured, the temple will always be your partner." ”
Luo Jia's hands were trembling, and his ten fingers were tightly clasped, only in this way could he resist the urge to beat the high priest, Qiu Yue was right, at this time, he should not be rash.
It's just that when he saw Qiu Yue walking towards the high priest, his heart hurt so much, and a bad premonition swelled up, as if if Qiu Yue was let go like this, the fate of the two of them would be broken.
"Then tonight, I will take Qiu Yue back to the temple." The high priest smiled victoriously, and became more and more annoying.
When Luo Jia heard this, he made a cold face and said, "Why are you in such a hurry?" Qiu Yue hasn't packed his luggage yet, his clothes are soft and so on, so he has to take the time to clean up, I think, the high priest wants to leave today, and Qiu Yue will leave tomorrow. ”
"Why bother? There is nothing in the temple, it just so happens that I see that Qiu Yue's clothes are quite old, so it is better to take this opportunity to change them all into new ones, as for silver taels and the like, ha, Qiu Yue is a guest when he goes to the temple, and he doesn't need to bring those things. ”
Luo Jia's brows furrowed deeper, but his eyes fell on Qiu Yue's clothes, these were all prepared by him for Qiu Yue, indeed, this dress was a little white, how long had he not carefully observed Qiu Yue? I didn't even notice that!
Just as he opened his mouth to speak, Qiu Yue said: "No need, I like these clothes a lot, but I am not used to wearing new clothes." ”
The high priest squinted, this girl has the intention to do something with him, right?
"If the old doesn't go, the new doesn't come, it's better to ......"
"High Priest, since I, Qiu Yue, said that I want to go to the temple, I must go back, you are staring so closely, aren't you afraid that Qiu Yue will run away overnight?" Qiu Yue's eyes were slightly cold, and his heterochromatic pupils exuded a terrifying cold light.
The high priest was stunned for a moment, and seeing that Qiu Yue was serious, he couldn't say anything, so he could only laugh dryly, resolve the embarrassment, and say, "Aren't I also in good intentions?" Who knows if you still appreciate it...... Okay, if you like these clothes, bring them all. ”
Qiu Yue retracted his gaze and said lightly: "Thank you, High Priest, for your success." ”
The high priest sighed softly, can't he do everything? You're almost eating the look you just looked!
He squeezed out a reluctant smile and said, "Since that's the case, I'll go back first, Qiu Yue, you have to come over early tomorrow." ”
Qiu Yue raised his eyebrows, since the high priest had said this, if he didn't come later, he would be sorry for him.
As a result, Qiu Yue almost pinched the early morning the next day before he arrived at the temple slowly, which is a later story.
After the high priest left, Qiu Yue breathed a sigh of relief, chatting with this person was even more tiring than a day's work, he turned around, and saw Luo Jia looking at him with an inquiring look, "Are you familiar with the high priest?" ”
Qiu Yue was stunned, he didn't understand where Luo Jia came from, he walked over, shook his head and said, "No, this is just the first ......" He hesitated slightly, "This is just the second side." ”
In fact, this is already the third side, but because it was erased by the high priest that night, Qiu Yue didn't know, but he always felt subconsciously in his mind that something was wrong.
Luo Jia's eyes were obviously not good, he continued to look at Qiu Yue with inquiring eyes, and said slowly: "As far as I know, the high priest looks kind, but in fact, he is very proud in his bones, and he treats people and things with a domineering momentum. ”
Qiu Yue was a little stunned, it turned out that in Luo Jia's eyes, was the high priest that kind of person? There was indeed a discrepancy with the high priest he knew, and he said lightly: "Who knows? Maybe it's because they want to form an alliance with us, so they have a kind of indulgence towards me. ”
"Is that so?" Luo Jia asked lightly.
Qiu Yue stared at him seriously and asked rhetorically, "Otherwise, why do you think the high priest is so concerned about a nobody like me?" ”
In fact, Luo Jia didn't know why the high priest's attitude towards Qiu Yue was so special, maybe it was really as Qiu Yue said, he deliberately endured it for the sake of forming an alliance, right? But would the high priest really be so patient for the sake of an alliance?
With the support of the temple, it is equivalent to grasping the trend of public opinion of the people, and the high priest really cares about him as an ally?
However, since that person had been before, he couldn't guess what that person was thinking, so he couldn't guess it.
"When will you pass tomorrow?" Luo Jia is now more concerned about this issue.
Qiu Yue saw that he looked cautious, a prince would care so much about his whereabouts, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "When do you think it is more appropriate to go over?" ”
Luo Jia burst out almost without thinking, "Of course it's best not to go!" ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Qiu Yue, but even Luo Jia was stunned, the two of them were suddenly a little embarrassed, Qiu Yue sighed, and then said seriously: "Luo Jia, you know, the current situation, we can't help it." ”
Qiu Yue's words, why didn't Luo Jia understand? It's just that understanding is one thing, and doing is another thing, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Hehe...... This kind of thing...... Of course I ...... Understand, then what do you think you will go when and what? ”
Qiu Yue saw Luo Jia's sad face, this incident may be a psychological blow to him, but for the overall situation, it is definitely a good thing! At this time, if he still shows reluctance, what does that look like?
Qiu Yue settled down, pretended to smile easily, and said mischievously: "I want to think about it...... Well, anyway, there is no time to set tomorrow, so I will pass tomorrow. ”
Luo Jia was slightly stunned for a moment, seeing that Qiu Yue's eyes were bright and extremely serious, he knew that this girl was not joking with him, and when the time passed tomorrow, thinking about the high priest who had been waiting all day, he was obviously anxious, and he had to pretend to behave when he saw Qiu Yue, what a funny scene it was.
Although this would make the high priest deflated, Luo Jia was still worried that Qiu Yue would go too far, so he reminded: "Don't go too late, lest the high priest resent you in the future and give you small shoes." ”
Qiu Yue smiled slightly and said, "I know, don't worry," (To be continued.) )
