The next day, when he opened his eyes again, two clergymen wearing black robes and silver crosses appeared in front of Zhang Jun, and the bearded man not far away was arguing with the old man with the cross he had seen yesterday.

In fact, it is not appropriate to say that the quarrel is more vivid.

"Archduke Ferdinand, we can guarantee Prince Ernst's safety."

"I believe in the strength of the Holy See, but Ernst is my son, and I still hope that he will be able to bring the Habs with him."

"You should know that even if they go to the Vatican, they are not qualified to meet His Holiness the Pope."

"I just need them to keep the road safe."

"If you insist, we I don't refuse, but ...... I want them to obey orders. ”

"I can guarantee that."

If Zhang Jun or Prince Hohenberg-Ernst could understand the conversation between the two, then he would know who he was and what time he was.

It was 1894, and Horst was in Vienna, the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and his father was the famous Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the protagonist of Sarajevo, and the trigger of the First World War.

Of course, if it is history, then he was not born at this time, maybe it was his arrival that changed history, they were born ten years earlier, and Archduke Ferdinand, who would have had his first daughter at the age of 38, already had a daughter and two sons at the age of 31.

By this time, Rudolph, the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, had committed suicide due to mental illness, and Archduke Ferdinand was not only the Grand Duke but also the crown prince, but there was one thing that is no different from history, his wedding to his wife Sophie was not approved by Emperor Franz Joseph I.

In fact, the reason is very simple, Sophie's identity is not worthy of Archduke Ferdinand, even if she has the title of count, but in fact, before winning the favor of the Grand Duke, she was only the court maid of Princess Isabella, Archduke Ferdinand's cousin.

In the eyes of Emperor Franz Joseph I, she was no different from a lady-in-waiting. The old emperor was worried that his nephew would choose a spouse who would not be in the royal family, and he was troubled for a whole year before approving the marriage. In return for his consent, he forced Franz Ferdinand to renounce any right of his children to claim a high position or to act as heir to the throne.

For this reason, from birth, Ernst's older siblings have been treated coldly, and perhaps only the hard-working nurse who treats them sincerely.

If nothing else, Ernst will do the same, but ...... A word of my God changes everything!

In the early morning, in the airtight and luxurious carriage pulled by three handsome white horses, Ernst was lying in the arms of the nurse, and next to her was Archbishop Eugène, for which the nurse looked very nervous.

When he opened his eyes, he was already in the car, and the hooves of the horses outside the car made him understand that there must be many guards, but whether they belonged to the bearded man or the old man of the clergy in front of him was not something that Ernst could tell.

Ernst, who understood that he had left "home", did not panic, because everything was expected by him, and such an outcome was one of his only three guesses.

The old clergyman was idle and often said a few words to Ernst very kindly, but Entes was only confused, because he didn't understand at all, and he was a little irritated when he was said and casually said "My God", which was very useful, and every time at this time the clergy was very excited, if it wasn't for the car, Ernst even thought he would kneel.

Of course, many times Ernst will also be suspicious, and even the purpose of the personnel who have been nagging themselves is not to let themselves say this, otherwise how can they stop nagging as soon as they say it?

The nurse became more and more silent, and every day she only fed and hummed songs to sleep with Entes (although this was redundant), and when she arrived in a small town or city, she would get out of the car with Entes and go to rest in the strange but extraordinarily luxurious castles and manors.

At this time, Archbishop Eugène would bring some local clergy and nobles to "visit" Ernst, and Ernst could only try his best to make himself more miraculous when he was powerless to change, and solemnly draw a cross and say a word to everyone who came!

In the amazement of the nobles and theosophists, the clergy and the old man became more and more excited and excited, for example, for example, the goddess who had been waiting for decades suddenly appeared in front of him, and he was still **. Of course, it was not a goddess who came to the old man, but Entes, or the radiance of God, the miracle of the Son. Anything more simply is the resurrection of faith, bringing him back to the way he was when he first entered the ministry.

Reason told him that he could not be trusted, but the other thought made him have to believe it, because if he did not believe it, he would lose the possibility of promotion and the disqualification to run for the pope.

It is true that he longs for God to come to earth, but he also longs for himself to be able to sit in the position of the Pope, and if he wants to deceive others, the most important thing is to deceive himself first, and only by convincing himself can he make others have no doubts.

The power has caused Bishop Eugène to ignore his faith, not only for him, but also for other bishops and even the Pope. It is certain that if Ernst goes to the Vatican, then even those bishops and popes who do not believe, when they get the situation of Ernst, the first thing they do is not to deny anything, but to make people believe in desperate propaganda, because it is in their interests and in the interests of the Church.

The castle and the manor are luxurious, and their banquets are sumptuous but ...... However, for a few months, Ernst could only drink milk, and he was only qualified to watch the food in front of him.

It takes about 18 days to travel by horse-drawn carriage from Vienna to the Vatican, and it is normal to increase the time to 30 days with stops and breaks along the way.

The frequent departure from the carriage space also gave Ernst some idea of the situation of his team, about thirty people dressed in bright red robes, these were undoubtedly the knights of the church, and they were mainly responsible for the safety of the bishop. The traditional Germanic blue straight military knights belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and there were more than a few hundred of them.

But herein the strange thing is that the Austro-Hungarian knights, who were supposed to be loyal to Ernst, were in fact far less respectful than those of the church knights. This also shows Ernst's position in Austria-Hungary, and it may be a good thing to leave Austria-Hungary.

After 32 days, Rome was in front of me, and I was a little excited to come to Rome for the first time in 1894.

Pity...... At this time, Rome did not have small street bands, no clowns, no fashionably dressed beautiful women, some were dilapidated, quaint, traces of war, and emaciated, busy Italian citizens.

The full name of Italy at this time should be the Kingdom of Italy, King Vittorio Emanuele II united Italy in 1861, and the current king is his son Umberto I, who succeeded to the throne in 1878 and was born in Turin in 1844.

How did Ernst know this was Rome? That's because his first love in his previous life studied in Rome, and he knows more or less about Rome. Along the way, he already had some understanding of his background, because he finally remembered where he had seen the bearded man.

Not only his own father, but also the gray-bearded guy Ernst began to have the impression that it was the famous founder of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Franz Joseph I, and his father was the biggest unlucky ghost in the First World War, Archduke Ferdinand?

Of course, with Ernst's shallow knowledge of history, he knew only that, and he did not know exactly who would succeed to the position of Austro-Hungarian emperor in the future, and why his brothers would be treated coldly.

Will you be an orphan in the future? Thinking of these things did not touch Ernst's heart much, for there was no affection between the two parties, even though the beautiful chubby woman loved him very much, and the father, who did not show his face often and had a serious face, saw that he had some tenderness.

Rome...... Are you going to the Roman Palace or the Vatican? I believe that the latter is the most likely!

When the dark Middle Ages lifted like a fog, the light of God began to wane...... Recalling the splendor of the Vatican, Ernst couldn't help but say this sentence in Italian. (Only this sentence, embarrassment~)

Bang dang~

Not good!

When I looked up, I ......

Archbishop Eugène and the nurse looked at Ernst with a look of horror, and even the gold-encrusted gem-set cup in Archbishop Eugène's hand fell to the ground without noticing.
