Chapter 108: The Temple of Decay

"What's the situation?" asked Sagar, frowning slightly.

When he asked this question, a hint of irritability suddenly rose in Zachar's heart.

It's a kind of irritability that arises deep down because the situation is out of your control.

But intellectually, Sachar understands that it is normal for him not to know these things.

After all, this is a matter in the temple system, and it is very normal for an outsider not to know about it.

After all, even if the temple system differs from several others, it represents the unworldly rights of the empire.

But can you really get away with the struggle for power?

Saga thought about it a little and felt that it was impossible, and I don't know how many cats there were in the temple system.

But in his previous life, because Sachar had little contact with this aspect, he handed over almost all matters related to the temple to Su Yalun to deal with.

Su Yalun naturally wouldn't trouble him with these things, and he had already dealt with them himself.

The only thing that Saga still has an impression of is that Su Yalun has cleaned up the temple system again and again.

These things are very normal for Zachar to do.

Whenever a new emperor succeeds to the throne, there will be some changes in the empire, except for the Senate.

The old officials stepped down, and the new imperial party came to power, especially the central team of the new emperor, and those cabinet ministers, all of whom were the most trusted people by the new emperor.

For the vast majority of families, every time a new emperor succeeds to the throne, it is an opportunity to move upward.

Especially when you meet an emperor who likes to expand his territory, he has the opportunity to become a first-order wealthy family.

Of course, for super-giants like the Brandon family, there will be much more choice.

However, in general, Brandon would surrender to the new emperor, whether the emperor expanded his territory or protected the territory and the people.

Anyway, that's what the Brandons have been doing for 2,000 years.

Nothing has changed, and for so many years, the Brandon family has only failed to do so in a few special eras.

In those eras, the relationship between the emperor who came to power at that time and the Brandon family was not very good, and he was always targeting the Brandon family.

The Brandon family, though powerful, opposed an emperor who did not make mistakes, and this was a clear rebellion.

The Brandon family still didn't dare to do it, but fortunately, as a legitimate emperor, if he wanted to deal with a thousand-year-old family, he also needed evidence.

If he dares to circumvent the Jade Law and attack a meritorious family.

Then the legitimacy of his throne will be questioned, and at that point he may really be overthrown.

The legitimacy of the throne of the Emerald Empire is an extremely difficult proposition.

Even the most erudite scholar cannot name all the legal methods of inheritance.

But the big names of the empire can clearly sense whether a person is a legitimate emperor or not.

Even after some special means, every citizen has the opportunity to feel whether an emperor is legitimate or not.

To this day, although the emperor is already the product of the family gate valve sitting on it alternately.

It's basically flowing between the second and third series of families,

It will not fall into the hands of first-order giants like the Brandons, much less into the hands of ordinary citizens.

The big names in the temple are basically like this.

If an ordinary family wants to produce a big man like a cardinal, if there is no super genius born.

Generally speaking, it takes at least three generations, that is, about fifty or sixty years of planning, to climb up little by little.

In this process, there must not be such a big accident, otherwise it is likely to be the accumulation of twenty or thirty years, and it will be lost in one day.

For a clerical official from an ordinary family, such a blow may not be able to persist until the next time.

The so-called entire temple system, at least half of which are children of the family.

Of course, the children of the family are not all waste, after all, they enjoy the best educational resources in the entire empire.

Even if you are stupid like a pig, you can learn a little.

However, even those who are more talented will have a common problem with the children of a family.

That is, when doing things, I always can't help but seek benefits for the family.

This is a common problem for all the children of the family in almost the entire empire.

More seriously, like Jiashi, he is almost about to make the revival of the family his lifelong pursuit.

It's not too serious, like Sagar, although it will involuntarily give some benefits to the family, but it still stands on the basis of not damaging the empire.

Compared to some families who have filled a lot of imperial property into their own families, the Brandon family has a much better appearance.

Zachar was almost certain that there must be a lot of in the temple system.

But is there anyone who is bold enough to lower the rank of a deity?

This kind of thing, even Zachar would not dare to do.

This kind of thing can only be done by His Majesty the Emperor without scruples, without being punished by God.

But Saga had never heard of His Majesty the Emperor having done such a thing.

"It is said that the first chief priest left a letter in the temple that said that no god of the goddess of darkness should be welcomed into the pantheon. ”

Evelèya gave a reason that left Zachar a little speechless.

The first chief priest, that was the one two thousand years ago, or the one a thousand years ago, when the empire was founded.

How could such an order be given?

"Could it be that the Phantom Goddess has been suppressed all this time because of the influence of the Shadow Goddess?" Saga almost immediately understood the reason for the Phantom Goddess's low position.

"Yes, sir. Efréa confirmed Zachar's suspicions.

"My family has always been in the temple system, and I also have an elder cardinal. ”

"I once heard him say that there was a question about the goddess of illusions, and now it is not raised in the meeting. ”

"It seems that this question has been forgotten by the 'Temple'. Everea said with some emotion.

"The temple is full of old-fashioned people, and although His Majesty the Chief Priest wanted to do something, in the end, he was forced by the pressure of the old-fashioned school and couldn't change anything. ”

Evelère said this suddenly.

So Saga couldn't help but look sideways, but he didn't expect Evereya to still have this understanding.

"Evereya, you're very nice. Saga smiled and said, "You can actually see through the essence of these events, it seems that your political science is also very good." ”

"Thank you for your compliment, but my political science is an A score, no worse than a theological score. Everea said with some pride.
