In Downton Abbey, looking at the beautiful scenery in front of her, the two old men in sacrificial robes behind Han Bing showed a burst of admiration on their faces, but the old man in front of her looked calmly ahead.
"Han Bing, we have already thought about the reconstruction of the Knights Templar, and the preliminary recruitment work has begun, you, you don't need to worry too much, the alliance leader has every opportunity, and you will do your best for the empire, you have to solve problems for the alliance leader here."
Behind, an old man with sparse blond hair said slowly, it was Samuel Dorne, one of the chief priests of the Temple of Themis and in charge of the day-to-day affairs of the temple.
According to the hierarchy of the Temple of Themis, the status of the three chief priests is obviously higher than that of the head of the Templar Order, but when the Samuel priest and Han Bing spoke, their faces were full of flattery, and the two big words 'flattering' were almost written directly on their faces.
Han Bing's throat swelled, usually this Samuel priest looked like a god's believer, with a straight face all day long, not smiling, but he didn't expect that the kung fu of patting Ma P was also first-class.
"Yes, I have to say that Han Bing, this child, has been sensible since he was a child, and he is extravagant, and at that time I concluded that she was definitely not a thing in the pool, and being able to serve the alliance leader was really a blessing accumulated over eternity."
Another brown-haired old man was even more unabashedly patted, and his appearance was indescribably serious. It was the presiding priest who was in charge of the temple's logistics, Mars-Hoyle.
"Thank you, two priests."
The corners of Han Bing's face twitched, and he was a little speechless in his heart. As a girl who was raised as a boy. Her temper has been a little wild since she was a child. was often reprimanded by this Mars priest, and even sued her in front of her father, saying that she was stubborn, but I didn't expect that after many years, the same person actually said that she had been sensible since she was a child......
I have to say that this feeling is very wonderful, Han Bing's heart inevitably has a trace of strangeness, and a leisurely sense of comfort rises in her heart. She knows it well. This qiē was brought by the young man, to be exact, by his strength and power.
Only the Grand Priest Cao Zhi didn't say a word, his face was full of blandness, he was full of righteousness since he was a child, he was full of righteousness, although he was happy for Han Bing's opportunity, but he would never be as slippery as the two colleagues next to him.
Looking at the young man in front of him, a smile appeared on Han Bing's face.
"The three main priests came from afar, and they missed the welcome, don't blame them."
Jiang Wei stepped forward. He smiled at Han Bing, and then smiled and arched his hand towards the three main priests.
"I was greeted by the Lord of the Labor League. The little old man was ashamed. ”
Cao Zhi smiled bitterly, he didn't expect Jiang Wei to wait for them outside the hall in person, this was already a very high-standard courtesy. Who is Jiang Wei? With a shock to the feet, the entire universe will shake up and down three times, and they will soon become the new masters of this powerful empire, and it is already a great face to be able to meet them, let alone greet them in person. He naturally saw Jiang Wei and Han Bing looking at each other and smiling, and couldn't help but comfort in his heart, Brother Han, your daughter has found a good home.
"The leader of the alliance has tried his best to think about the world's birthday, and it is really a sin for me to come and disturb me in my busy schedule."
Compared with Cao Zhi, who was not humble or silent, the two main priests, Mars and Samuel, were undoubtedly inferior, and bent down with a pandering face and said.
Jiang Wei was naturally prepared, and he also had a certain understanding of the three of them, and several people walked to the hall and sat down with a smile.
"You talk, I'll go see Lele and them." Han Bing really couldn't stand the flattery of the two main priests, so she left here first, Lele and the other three beautiful girls naturally used the excuse to accompany her and wanted to live in Downton Abbey.
Looking at her departing back, Jiang Wei smiled, the coldness on this guy's face became less and less.
He didn't expect that the relieved smile on his face was understood as a pampering in the eyes of the two main priests, Samuel and Mars, and the hearts of the two main priests were alive.
"The three chief priests, I don't know what advice you have for this time?"
After the waiter served the tea, Jiang Wei took a sip and asked with a smile.
The three of them looked at each other, Cao Zhi thought for a moment, and said:
"I'm here to thank the Alliance Master for your help, if it weren't for you, my temple would probably not be able to function."
Cao Zhi's posture is very low, as the saying goes, the mouth of eating people is short, and the hands of people are short, if it weren't for Jiang Wei allocating funds to support the temple in time, I'm afraid the temple would have fallen apart long ago, after all, the sacrifices also have to eat, not to mention those large number of believers, who participate in the activities held by those temples every week and every month, and they can't play without money.
Jiang Wei smiled disappreliantly, and waved his big hand: "Where is Lord Priest Cao talking about, for the Temple of Themis, I am yearning for it, these are just a gesture, not to mention that Han Bing is so close to me, Lord Priest Cao must not be so polite." ”
He knew very well that these three chief priests definitely did not come here to express any gratitude, I am afraid that they have their own demands, and he has more or less guessed some of them.
"The alliance leader is benevolent and righteous, and we admire it."
The three of them got up together and saluted him, and Jiang Wei naturally got up and raised his hand to return the salute.
"Lord Cao, everyone is their own people, if you have something to say, I think the three of you are not just to express your gratitude."
His words were full of enthusiasm, and he didn't treat them as outsiders at all, which made the hearts of the three chief priests warm.
Cao Zhi smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that this alliance leader had such a bold personality, and said slowly:
"To tell you the truth, I waited for this time, in addition to expressing my gratitude, I also want to ask the alliance leader, the future development of the temple and other related matters."
"Yes, now that the empire is in ruins, we naturally don't dare to act on our own, so I have come to consult the alliance leader, I believe that under your leadership. The temple is sure to move towards an even more glorious future. Mars said.
"The leader of the alliance accepts the world and swallows mountains and rivers. Without your guidance. We're not sure. ”
Priest Samuel said with a hint of eagerness on his face.
Jiang Wei nodded, on the surface, Cao Zhi, Samuel, and Mars expressed the same demands, but the inner meaning was very different, Cao Zhi was just testing him, to see if he would suppress the temple like the Wei Chi clan, completely from the perspective of the temple's interests. As for Samuel and Mars. The meaning of these two people is also very clear, to put it simply, just one sentence: Boss, accept me as a junior brother.
Cao Zhi glanced at the two of them with a little dissatisfaction, and was a little angry in his heart, when Wei Chi Rende was in power, these two main priests were not less than eye-to-eye with the faint monarch, willing to be his lackeys, and now they were busy throwing themselves into Jiang Wei's subordinates, which made him angry in his heart. Although he is the high priest, he is the first of the three priests. But Samuel and Mars were very powerful in the temple, and it was not for him to abolish them if he wanted to.
Sure enough, as said in the intelligence, Cao Zhi was upright and devoted to the temple, while the other two main priests were grass on the wall and fell with the wind, just wanting to find a backer to benefit themselves in the temple.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wei smiled indifferently: "The three of you are polite, the Temple of Themis is an independent and free religious organization, I don't dare to interfere in the things in the temple, as long as it is legal and reasonable, the three main priests can discuss it on their own, if they need any help, just ask." ”
Hearing this, Cao Zhi's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, he didn't expect Jiang Wei to say it so bluntly, this young man's meaning is very clear, he will not control the temple in his hands, nor will he suppress the temple, but there is a big premise, that is, it is legal and reasonable, in layman's terms, that is, don't go against Lao Tzu.
With his assurance, the next conversation will naturally become more friendly, and for this kind of religious organization with high prestige among the people, Jiang Wei will naturally not miss the opportunity to brush up its prestige, and expounded some welfare policies that he will implement in the future.
Listening to Yu Xuanzhong, looking at the three little guys playing on the rockery next to him, the corners of Han Bing's mouth flashed a trace of helplessness, looking at the old man beside him, and he didn't know how to say it for a while.
After the meeting, Cao Zhi came here under the pretext of visiting the three little ones, told her about the conversation just now, and made a request, that is, let her support herself, and remove Samuel and Mars from the two main priesthoods.
"Teacher, I can't do anything about it." Han Bing took a long breath and said a little unbearably.
Hearing this, Cao Zhi froze slightly, he believed that Han Bing was a sensible child, but he didn't understand why she didn't support herself in this matter:
"Bing'er, I definitely don't have any selfishness, you know, the two of them use the power in the temple to fish and flesh believers, and they are powerful and powerful, which is simply a cancer of the temple."
Looking at Cao Zhi, who was full of righteousness, Han Bing shook his head, "Teacher, you are a decent person, I have always respected you, and I also understand what you mean, you want the temple to develop better and bigger, but replacing the two of them is not conducive to the development of the temple." ”
"What does that mean?" Cao Zhi was a little stunned.
"A cohesive temple is never something that a ruler wants to see."
Han Bing's words were like a thunderbolt from the blue, and they instantly made Cao Zhi famous for a lot of things.
"But the alliance leader said that as long as it is legal and reasonable, it will not hinder the development of the temple."
"Yes, so he needs people like Samuel and Mars, only this kind of person, he will continue to support the temple, if you must replace these two people, teacher, I am afraid it will attract his suspicion, the story of monarchy and divine power, there are many lessons left in history."
Hearing this, Cao Zhi showed a wry smile on his face, is it really still like this? How can a country be strong, that is, to concentrate the power of the whole country and make the voice of one person, and this voice can only be the voice of the ruler, not the voice of the temple, so the monarchy will never tolerate the provocation of other powers.
"As long as you insist on not touching his bottom line, he will definitely not suppress the temple, you can rest assured."
Seeing that the teacher looked so lonely, Han Bing had to be relieved, thinking of the smiling young man, she smiled helplessly in her heart, who said that she chose to stand by his side.
