Chapter XVII
Fighting for the wind and being jealous, fighting openly and secretly, and not existing.
Although Shuer doesn't know much about himself, so that he has made many mistakes in the past, he will not make similar mistakes about other people's hearts and human nature, and he must be sure that he has enough confidence if he dares to step by step to today's relationship.
Be sure that nothing will go wrong.
Indeed, whether it is Saf or Moria, the two of them are partners who have been fighting together for a long time, not only with Shuer, but also with each other for a long time, how many times during this period they have given their lives to each other to protect each other, which has long surpassed the friendship and simple teammate relationship of women, plus the personalities of the two are special enough, so Shuer has already calculated, and it is impossible for them to have any conflicts because of this kind of thing.
The fact is also the same, although the two competed with each other with their rings, but this is just a declaration of sovereignty, after recognizing each other's sovereignty, they have returned to the old mode of getting along, well, one bullies, the other is bullied, and the role distribution is very reasonable.
The two of them were back to normal, but Shul was not so well-off.
It felt like the whole world knew what he did, well, not that exaggerated, of course, but at least it seemed like the entire Rose Capital already knew how he treated the venerable Headmaster and the terrible Lynch. As soon as he finished breakfast, several waves of visitors came to the door in a row, from the official of the Rose family to ordinary businessmen with business cooperation, and everyone looked at him a little abnormally.
It's not the illusion that arises on the way back because of a weak heart, this time it's really not normal.
"What, is there anything on my face?" Sitting on the sofa in the reception room, finding that even the familiar Marquis of Ruben was looking at him with strange eyes, Shul finally couldn't bear it anymore, and asked with a frown, "Why do I think you look at me so strangely?" First of all, although the lightless festival every month in the future is the norm, we must discuss with the Holy Affairs Center the issue of renting vehicles for picking up and dropping off believers, but even if you stare at me like this, we will not pay this fee from the Dark Moon Church, and it is reasonable that it should be funded by the Holy Affairs Center. ”
"I'm staring at you because...... Wait, Your Excellency Shuer, I heard me right, on what basis did you justify pushing the money for renting a carriage onto our holy center?"
"Ahem, for a reason, of course. "Hey, being noticed, Shur pursed his lips secretly, and said with a holy face on the surface, "This is equivalent to the cooperation between the Holy Affairs Center and our church to jointly maintain the festival, and both sides should naturally contribute." ”
"Huh?" Even though Marquis Ruben had already been mentally prepared, he was still angry by Shuer's beard, "Why does the Holy Affairs Center maintain the festival with your Dark Moon Church, this kind of sacrifice should be maintained by yourself, we haven't asked you to pay the management fee yet, since you still want us to even pay the money for the carriage." ”
"It's not the first time that Lord Marquis has come into contact with sacred affairs, I thought that such a simple matter, Lord Marquis could not have thought about it, since I would propose this, of course there is a reason. "Well, it's just not done yet, wait for me to make it up again, Xiu'er slowed down his speech as much as possible, and said slowly, "For the specific situation, you can refer to the Water Curtain Festival." ”
You can't talk anymore, the old marquis couldn't help but roll his eyes, not secretly, but openly, but he didn't say anything, because the words that followed could no longer be said.
The annual Water Curtain Festival is the most important festival of the Water Temple or the entire Water God System, originally the Water Temple is one of the four officially supported temples of the Jade Empire, plus it is only held once a year, of course, it can be strongly supported by the imperial government, and the most important thing is that the influence of the people's churches is great, before and after each Water Curtain Festival, there are at least hundreds of thousands of visitors in and out of the Lion City, which greatly promotes the commercial development of the Lion City.
But your Dark Moon Temple's Lightless Festival is held once a month, and the participants are all devout believers, and ...... Your influence is not a little worse than that of the Temple of Water, so whether or not the Lightless Festival is held has no impact on the Rose Capital, why should we be responsible for your expenses.
The problem is, you can think so, but you must not say so, at least not from the mouth of Marquis Ruben, Marquis Ruben understands that this gold-devouring beast must have prepared a hat a long time ago, once he says such remarks, I am afraid that he will immediately be detained with the hat of looking down on our Dark Moon Church is equivalent to despising our lord, and when the time comes, in order to make up for the psychological trauma he has suffered, it is estimated that this expenditure should fall on his head.
It is worthy of being a follower of the Rose family for several generations, the old marquis is really experienced, and he just smiled noncommittally at what Xiuer said: "That's really sorry, I don't know anything about the Water Curtain Festival, wait for a few years to learn more about it, and then discuss this issue with His Excellency Xiuer." As for the past few years, in order to avoid delaying the festival of the great Lord of the Dark Moon, the carriage problem is up to you. ”
Tsk, it seems that there are disadvantages to being famous, and everyone is guarding against being pitted. Xiuer sighed regretfully, and put aside the financial problem for the time being: "When did Lord Marquis add the habit of liking to talk halfway? ”
You should be asked of this, right, from beginning to end, you are leading the conversation. Marquis Ruben muttered a few times in dissatisfaction, and then continued: "It seems that Your Excellency Shul really doesn't know, I, and probably others, have been staring at you this morning because of an oracle from the Temple of the Gods, or rather, an appointment from the Temple of the Gods."
"Huh?" In the eyes of ordinary people, the Temple of the Gods is actually just a symbolic institution, with no practical significance. At the same time, the Temple of the Gods has never given any orders in the name of the Temple of the Gods, all orders have been given by the relevant gods in their own names, and no orders have even been given, let alone personnel appointments.
There is no doubt that this appointment should be related to Shur himself, no wonder everyone's eyes are so strange, they do have strange reasons.
"The Temple of the Gods appointed you as an envoy, and he is fully responsible for the contact with the Dragon Clan, speaking of which, does the Temple of the Gods have an enmity with the Dragon Clan, and actually sent you...... Ahem. The old marquis promptly retracted his rather terrifying blasphemous remarks, and said mysteriously, "In addition, you are the chief representative, responsible for arranging the reception of the delegation from another world. ”
"Well, I don't know?"
