Since he can't change William's hostility to the Cluny Seminary, why not target William's heir, Prince Richard, and make Prince Richard's conversion to the Cluny faction with his ability.

However, if Prince Richard wants to believe in Cluny Catholicism, being the prince's guardian is an indispensable precondition, otherwise if he can't even see Prince Richard's face, how can he exert influence on the prince.

Asking William to become Prince Richard's guardian is certainly not going to work, and with William's precautions against him, how can he be allowed to become a guardian and approach Richard justifiably.

But this method didn't work, and he had other more effective methods.

As the leaders of the Cluny Seminary, Hildebrand and the Cluny had a strong influence in the Holy Roman Empire, Italy, Burgundy, Aquitaine and Spain, and many of the local monasteries followed the instructions of the Cluny Seminary.

He intended to use the Cluny Monastery's influence in Spain to influence Queen Urracá's maiden family, King Ferdinand I of Castile and Queen Sancha, to recommend him to Prince Richard's guardian so that he could get what he wanted.

It is just a pity that with William's conquest of the Kingdom of France, many Clunian monasteries in the Kingdom of Flassi were forcibly taken over by William to the royal family, and then occupied by the Norman bishops appointed by William, while the original Cluny monks were sent by William to the very remote island of Ireland to be responsible for indoctrining the barbaric Vikings.

Such an outrageous act was so outrageous that when Bishop Hildebrand learned of the ins and outs of the incident, he was tempted to denounce William as the "Antichrist."

In his opinion, everything William did was Christian, and all the Reformations and doctrines he did were demonic. The confiscation of church assets and the arbitrary appointment of his subordinates to serve as bishops of the churches everywhere are all the more evidence that William is regarded by him as the Antichrist, or Satan.

However, Hildebrand's efforts alone, or even the entire Cluny, could have any effect on William, after all, William had just won a brilliant victory over the anti-Norman coalition formed by the Roman Church, and Holy See-Leo IX had no choice but to sign a peace treaty extremely favorable to William, thus forever losing influence and control over the Church in England, France, and Normandy.

However, Hildebrand will not give up and cannot change William's mind, but he can influence the thinking of Prince Richard, the heir to the throne, to make Prince Richard a true Christian, and let the influence and control of the Clunians spread throughout England, France, and Normandy.

Hoping for the future, Hildebrand immediately stepped out of the stands, hurriedly bid farewell to Sergeant Marge, and set out for his lodgings.

However, as he approached the gates of Paris, William's royal governor, Farle Osborne, approached Hildebrand with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has commanded me to take care of you, and I can't afford to miss you in the slightest." Although Falosborne was full of respect, there was no respect in his tone: "Please go back to the queen with us to rest." ”

"Rape slave!" Rao is Hildebrand has a very good cultivation, but when he heard Faller's strange voice, he couldn't help but scold angrily.

"Yo, where am I a traitor, Cardinal, don't talk nonsense." Farleosbourne was still smiling, but the chill in his eyes couldn't help but shoot at Bishop Hildebrand.

"Hmph, take me back."

Cardinal Hildebrand was too lazy to deal with this shameless traitor, and for the sake of his goal and the future of the Cluny faction, he could only endure for a moment.

......

In the royal palace on the Île de la Cité, William was laughing and playing with his son, enjoying a rare moment of happiness.

"Richard, see what I've got in store for you?" William picked up a richly decorated box from the table, leaned over and said to Richard with a smile.

"Humph! Ignore you. Richard was squirming and turned his head to snort not wanting to look at him.

William looked up at Queen Urakar and asked his wife for help, only to receive a "you brought it on" look.

"Haha..." William laughed embarrassedly, squatted down and hugged little Richard, and said: "Little Richard, you forgive your father this time, it's not good for me to not come to see you for so long, but I also have my troubles, you can forgive me." ”

"Okay, I'll forgive you." Little Richard looked up at William and said, "What about the gift?" If I'm not satisfied, I won't let you go easily. ”

William had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender, take out the richly decorated box from behind him, and open it with a click, revealing a golden crown.

"Your Majesty, this is—" Uraka said in surprise as he covered his mouth.

William gently stroked the crown with his right hand and said, "This is my harvest in this war - the crown of the Kingdom of Lorraine, I plan to give it to little Richard, and when he grows up, I will personally crown him as King of Lorraine." ”

"No, Your Majesty, it's too much for little Richard to take." Uraka hurriedly shook his head and sternly refused.

William just smiled lightly, turned to Richard and said, "Little Richard, do you like this gift?" ”

"I like it, I love it so much!" Richard touched the gold-encrusted jeweled crown, and the cold felt very comfortable.

"Then I'll put it on for you." William smiled and put Lorraine's crown on Richard, and the crown suddenly hung crookedly on Richard's little head, like a soldier wearing a cauldron helmet that did not match him.

Richard lifted his hands hard to straighten the crown and giggled.

Seeing this, William also smiled happily.

"Your Majesty, you're doing this too child's play." Ulaka took off the Lorraine crown from his son's head with a straight face, put it back in the box and covered it, and said to William and Richard: "Before Richard came of age, this crown was placed with me and kept by me. ”

As soon as the female tiger was powerful, William surrendered helplessly: "Yes, what you say, do as you say." ”

"Mom, give it back to me." Richard ran into Uraka's arms, stretched out his hand and screamed.

"Be quiet, Richard, it's almost time, why don't you go and do your homework with Master Ladolph!" Uraka shouted with a straight face.

Looking at this scene, William couldn't cry or laugh, but he looked at Uraka but was glared at by her, his eyes seemed to say: "The child has become like this, it's not that you, an irresponsible father, have spoiled him." ”
