Chapter 390: The Imperial City Takes the Throne 44

Qiu Yue didn't expect the high priest to say such a thing, he quickly glanced at Luo Jia's face, and couldn't help but take a cold breath, this person's face was already so black that it was almost dripping.

However, the forbearance for many years is not for fun, Luo Jia did not have an immediate seizure, he sat back in his seat, made a cup of tea for himself, held it in his hand, tasted it slowly, and said lightly: "You said you want Qiu Yue?" ”

The high priest didn't seem to notice that the atmosphere around him suddenly became cold, and nodded very frankly, he looked at Qiu Yue, who was pale, and said: "This priest saw him that day, and I think this little girl is very interesting, anyway, I have nothing to do recently, so I want to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for someone to chat with me these days." ”

"Heh, there are so many people in the temple, and the high priest will still be bored? What a joke. ”

The high priest looked distressed, he raised his forehead and sighed, and said: "There are indeed a lot of my disciples, but there are not many interesting ones, but I just hit it off with Qiu Yue at first sight, and I hope that the prince can fulfill it, besides, isn't this priest still under house arrest by the prince?" There is no one to talk to, it is too lonely. ”

Luo Jia's face was about to distort, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Are you under house arrest by Prince Ben now?!" ”

"Hehe, I also made this decision to deliver a message to the prince." The High Priest had a smile on his face, very piercing.

Qiu Yue saw that neither of them would let anyone, he was at a stalemate, he was a little anxious in his heart, and he was about to open his mouth to persuade him, but who knows, but he was stopped by Luo Jia, he gave him a look of unknown meaning, and looked at the high priest again. Said: "I can let you go back to the temple, but ......"

The prince's eyes suddenly became gloomy and cold, and he said word by word: "But, if you want Qiu Yue, dream!" ”

The high priest raised his eyebrows, looking at the prince's appearance of wanting to eat him alive, it seems that the relationship between these two people is really good, but the person he likes. I won't give up.

"It seems that I didn't give enough chips. It's just enough to redeem yourself~"

Luo Jia sneered, "It's good to know, if you are persuaded to be interesting, hurry up and go back to your temple for me, if you dare to make up your mind with the people around me again." I will never let you go! High Priest. You'd better not challenge my bottom line! ”

The high priest's heart shook. Don't let him challenge his bottom line, why is this kid so fun? Isn't this to let him cross the thunder pool?

I dare to speak to him like this after living like this. There are really few, he has witnessed the rise and fall of two emperors, and soon, he will become the third, but the first two emperors are respectful to him, but this new queen is so arrogant, it is really a new experience.

The high priest folded his right foot on his left foot, changed to a comfortable sitting position, and under Luo Jia's angry gaze, he said: "Since the news of the jade seal just now, the chips are not enough, then I will add another one, how about it?" ”

This time, Luo Jia didn't say anything, but his face was still very bad, but he waited patiently for the high priest to continue.

The high priest smiled and said, "As long as the crown prince is willing to let Qiu Yue accompany me back to the temple for a few days, I will form an alliance with you, how about it?" ”

"Your temple is a rabble, and the high priest really dares to put gold on his face!" Luo Jia's fist was clenched very hard, and the green tendons on the back of his hand came out, which was very terrifying.

"A rabble?" The high priest seemed to have heard some joke, he laughed, looked at Luo Jia with some incredulity, and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, who taught your imperial studies?" You can let him roll up and leave. ”

"What do you mean?" Luo Jia frowned, this person really can't spit out ivory!

"Literally." The high priest said, "Prince, do you know the power to stir people's hearts?" It is true that the people of the temple are not well-trained soldiers, and it can even be said that they are all accustomed to eating and drinking, but don't forget, the people of the temple, without exception, are the spiritual beliefs of the people, and their words are much more useful than your dry roar. ”

"High priest, aren't you afraid of losing your head when you say this?!" Luo Jia squinted his eyes and said.

This kind of declaration theology, the morality of the divine right of kings, Luo Jia saw the drawbacks a long time ago, so he has never had a good impression of the people in the temple, but this person is good, and he is so arrogant to expose the truth!

"But that's the truth." The high priest spread his hands, "You can't deny that now the status of the temple in the hearts of the people, if there is the help of the temple, the prince is equivalent to another bargaining chip, besides, I don't want to do anything to Qiu Yue, I just want to take her to live in the temple for a few days, and in a few days, it will be returned to Zhao, this is a no-lose deal for you, prince." ”

At this moment, Luo Jia was completely hesitant, and I have to say that the conditions offered by the high priest were very tempting, and the current situation was not favorable to him, and many people were dissatisfied with him, and if he was supported by the temple, he could be greatly improved.

However, if he wanted Qiu Yue to go to the temple, he was not at ease.

Luo Jia thought about it, he glanced up at Qiu Yue, only to see that he was also staring at him without blinking, and the eyes of the two collided together, Luo Jia was panicked for a moment, and hurriedly avoided his gaze.

What's wrong with him? Was he afraid? Are you afraid that Qiu Yue will see through his true thoughts?

Damn it! Luo Jia was annoyed in his heart, and then saw that the high priest looked like he was winning, and a nameless fire rose up, and he said impatiently: "However, Qiu Yue has always been regarded as a demon in Shenyin Village before, if you take her to the temple, won't she be recognized as a demon?" What to do then? ”

It seems that it has begun to loosen, and sure enough, the most important thing for the royal people is the throne~

The high priest smiled slightly, and said in a relaxed tone: "This prince, please rest assured, don't forget, I am the high priest, the entire temple, my words are the most authoritative, as long as I say it, even if Qiu Yue is really a demon, I can make him become a heavenly immortal, a messenger of the gods, but it is not in vain." ”

"Oh, what a hypocritical messenger!" Luo Jia sneered, the people of the temple were more hypocritical than the people of the royal family.

The high priest's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and his old face was stunned and did not react at all, and said calmly: "Your Highness, if the people of our temple are hypocritical, your royal family should not let it go, after all, what the temple does is to serve the people of the royal family~"

"Heh~" Luo Jia smiled, very briefly, just laughed twice, and his face became solemn again.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thinks slowly, I'm not in a hurry, haha." The high priest said, looked at Qiu Yue and said, "After talking for so long, my voice is a little hoarse, can Qiu Yue pour me a glass of water?" ”

Qiu Yue didn't say a word, and didn't even give a look to the high priest, but looked at Luo Jia, who was deep in thought.

Luo Jia is holding his chin with both hands, and his mouth is subconsciously biting his fingertips, this is a small habit of Luo Jia, when he encounters difficulties, he will habitually bite his fingers, no matter how to correct it, he is a habit.

The conditions prescribed by the high priest are very reasonable, judging from the situation that Luo Jia is currently experiencing, he has no intention of sending charcoal in the snow, he should hand him over, right? After all, this is not a bad thing for everyone.

But the heart was a little blocked, from beginning to end, Luo Jia didn't consider his opinion!

But intellectually speaking, even if Luo Jia was unwilling, he would still agree to the high priest's conditions, after all, there is no harm in all benefits, isn't it?

Just as he was about to say yes, Luo Jia took the lead to speak, "The conditions offered by the high priest are very tempting!" ”

The high priest raised his eyebrows, this result was expected by himself, he smiled, and said, "What does the prince mean?" ”

"However, this prince has never thought of winning the throne in this way, so please forgive me for not agreeing." Luo Jia is the color of the road.

The high priest's face froze, this answer, I'm afraid that even he didn't expect that this person would reject him?

Looking at Qiu Yue again, he was also shocked, what was Luo Jia doing? Why did he let go of such a great opportunity?!

Although from an emotional point of view, he is very happy with what Luo Jia has done for himself, but is it time to talk about emotion? Does he know how difficult the situation is now? It's stupid!

Just when Qiu Yue was in shock, the high priest made a preemptive move, "Prince, have you thought clearly?" Without the support of our temple, it will not be easy for you to ascend to the throne of God! ”

Luo Jia's expression was faint, there was a feeling of letting go of everything, he smiled, and said jokingly: "This prince has never regretted what he did!" It's the high priest, your face is not very good now~"

The high priest was slightly angry, that's right, he is in a very bad mood now, Luo Jia, this kid, really doesn't know the general situation, he even gave up the throne at his fingertips for the sake of one person, isn't it stupid?! The children of the emperors of this generation are so strange, the brain circuits are not normal, and it seems that the country of Ya is about to perish.

"Prince, have you thought clearly? Abandon the support of the Temple. "The High Priest gave Raka one last chance.

But Luo Jia obviously didn't appreciate it, and he said lightly: "High priest, I don't want to say what the prince said a second time, what I do will always be ......."

"Wait a minute!" Halfway through Luo Jia's words, Qiu Yue interrupted him.

Luo Jia was stunned for a moment, looked at Qiu Yue in surprise, and said angrily: "Qiu Yue, what are you doing?!" ”

Qiu Yue glanced at him lightly, did not answer, but looked at the high priest and said, "I still have something to say to the crown prince, can you ask the high priest to avoid it for a while?" ”

Luo Jia has been with Qiu Yue for so many years, and he immediately understood what Qiu Yue meant, "Qiu Yue, don't ...... it"

Qiu Yue turned his head and glared at him fiercely, asking the high priest's reply, "How is it?" High Priest? ”

Of course, the high priest agreed, and it seemed that the little girl was more sensible, so he stood up, dusted off the wrinkled hem of his clothes, and then left, by the way, he helped the two close the door, leaving enough space for the two of them. (To be continued.) )
