184 Behind the scenes and in front of the door

"Will that person succeed?" In the church of distant Ruhrhof, the archbishop pondered, "He is taller than Bishop Tournest, but not as strong as him, and he has no knife with him—he cannot kill the bishop with his cranked cane—and why, alas, the foolish St. Jeffrey does not require his disciples to carry a knife with him?" In that case, it's easy to apply poison to the knife! It's a pity that the crank cane - it's useless to poison this thing! ”

St. Jeffrey, who devoted himself to penance to get closer to heaven and founded the Jeffrey Order, could never have dreamed that there would be a dignified archbishop, who cursed his disciples because he prescribed them to carry a staff instead of a knife, and that it was inconvenient to poison him.

"Well, I should have put a knife under his nose so he would hide it...... Wrong! I gave him a bread knife in it, and he didn't take it. ”

Thinking of this detail, the archbishop became more and more troubled, his originally well-maintained and smooth forehead showed wrinkles, his mouth was crooked from thinking, his hands were clasped together, and his fingers nervously intertwined for a while, and then loosened, "He may have regretted it, after all, Bishop Tournest is his cousin, and such a relative is not something that can be picked up on the street." With such a relative, he could have been an abbot! No, if that kid had risen at the current rate, anyone with a discerning eye could have seen that he would be able to become the archbishop of Neustria, and when the time comes, this formerly unknown ascetic would probably become the abbot of the Great Abbey! ”

"With such a bright future, will he give up? Maybe he really figured it out and was willing to reconcile with Bishop Turnest - maybe the Duchess of Cutis made him feel good? Explicitly. It is impossible for an ascetic to approach a noblewoman like a duchess, but a relative of the bishop can—hey. Hey, I did something stupid! Thus he spent his days in the wilderness. The man who had been brainwashed by Geoffrey's ascetic practice did not know what it meant to be a relative of a prominent bishop—wealth, status, woman—not the kind of filthy warbler of the streets, but a noblewoman of hopeful blood—many knights were willing to risk their lives for the sake of a loved one, and he was a wild monk of commoner origin...... I made a mistake and pushed the people the gods gave me to the side of the enemy! ”

The archbishop gazed at the magnificent splendid curtains in front of him with remorse for a long time, "As ascetics, how abominable it is to covet wealth and women, and what about the kingdom of heaven that they have been talking about?" St. Jeffrey didn't care about his disciples! ”

Later. He finally relented with this judgment, "There is no identification that he is really a relative of Bishop Tournest, although he is indeed a priest of the Jeffrey Order, and the rules are not bad at all, but it is also possible that he is the one sent by that kid to try to bring me down!" Yes, if he did the trap, then he could have trained it completely. He also understands the rules of the Jeffrey Order, and he can find a real Jeffrey Order's ascetic now, and then coax him into tricking him into lying to me again. This kind of ascetic is a tendon of what others say and believe. If I recklessly accept his accusations, I will make a fool of myself, if I give him a knife. Then give my place to that kid! Haha, I'm glad I'm smart. I didn't fall for him, thank the gods for giving me caution! I didn't tell that kid to get the slightest bit of a handle! The Duchess of Catis will testify for me. I did not accept the accusations of his relatives and said many good things about him. Well, it's also possible that he was sent by old Joseph's relatives, who wanted to instigate the two of us to fight each other, hmph, I couldn't help it when I was alive, can I still turn over flowers when I'm dead? The Jeffrey Orderlies are so annoying, I'm fed up with them, I don't know when the Pope will declare them illegal......"

As he was immersed in his inner world, two men paced back and forth outside the door of Bishop Turnest's room.

In the end, it was the Great Demon King who broke the silence first, "What are you dangling here, I don't remember that your room is in this direction." ”

"It's none of your business, besides, you're a lady, it's so late, you should go back." The knight was not in a good mood - the bishop had always lectured him that as a knight he was to protect women and children - but from the tragic experience of the present day, he felt that there was sufficient evidence to tell the bishop that it was not the women who needed to be protected, but the poor knight who was too good-looking and had the misfortune to fall into the women's pile.

"It's none of my business?" The Great Demon King's curiosity suddenly rose, "Tomorrow's festival is all about me. ”

"It's not about tomorrow's holiday."

"Hah, what is that for-" The Great Demon King stared at the knight who was dressed as a colorful flower by Aunt Hansen's female generals, "You...... Are you going to attack him at night on the eve of the festival - I warn you! Pure love is a very niche hobby! I've never met a single enthusiast here! There is no market for pure love here! There is no market! Do you understand - there is no small money without a market! ”

"What a mess!" The knight was confused, "I don't worry about him. ”

"Ha, you still say you're not prepared...... Kindness? Who is not worried? Do you think his cousin has that hobby? ”

"What are you talking nonsense, I'm not worried about his safety, his cousin...... I have seen the ascetics of the Order of Geoffrey, and they are not the ones who spend a few days in the wilderness and then change their minds - they stay in the wilderness all year round, and they either die or go mad, and I have never seen or heard of them - this is so strange - I would not be surprised if the Bishop went to him first and made him change his mind, but now it is the opposite - I suspect that someone has said something to him. ”

"Impossible," Luo Yi said, "that's his dearest!" Growing up together! It is said that tiger poison does not eat children! How can he do him any harm? It's just a difference in doctrinal understanding -- not a dispute over money or affection -- and at most it's just a quarrel, and you can't do anything. ”

Born in the secular world, the impression of the heresy inquisition was limited to the Great Demon King who burned and killed witches, and he didn't take the doctrinal dispute to heart at all. It is true that she had heard that women and children could be slaughtered because of the use of more or less fingers to draw crosses, but that memory was too far away, and besides, it was not between relatives, and the women and children who were killed were not people of status like priests and bishops, and after seeing the corruption and depravity of ordinary clergy, and drunkenness and lust, she quickly recognized drawing a cross with a few fingers as a means of eliminating the marginalized of society, as well as burning witches.

"Hmph, I'm just not at ease! He always refuses to look into the bishop's eyes, and always looks away, which is not like a brother's meeting," replied the knight, "and I will go in and see." ”

The wind outside the window was blowing fiercely. (To be continued......)
