Chapter XXII List

This made Alan even more puzzled, did the elders think that they would not need to face the reproach of the four countries after they ascended the throne?or ......

Alan actually laughed, this time it can startle Manto, it can't be that His Royal Highness the Holy Son is too stressed after hearing his words, something is not normal!

"Your Highness, Your Highness, are you alright?"

Looking up at Manto, who looked nervous, Alan smiled and waved his hand, the laughter just now was actually Alan laughing at himself. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Just before, Alan was still thinking about whether what he was going to do was a little too much, especially when Delia warned himself not to regret it, and Alan even considered rescheduling the plan.

But at this time, these thoughts are all gone, and if the Council of Elders really colludes with the Crumb Empire, then Eren will not feel any guilt about what he is about to do.

"I'm fine, by the way, Archpriest Manto, you should know some members of the Presbyterian Church. ”

"Oh, yes, yes, yes, with me. ”

As he spoke, Manto reached out and pulled out a roll of parchment from his clothes, but when he was about to hand it to Alan, he suddenly hesitated.

"What's wrong?

Alan was a little nervous in his heart, if Manto was really unwilling to give him this list, then Alan would really not be able to snatch it.

Although Alan expects that Hailan will definitely make a move tonight, it is inevitable that there will be fish that will slip through the net, and with this list, it will undoubtedly be much safer.

"No, I just hope that His Highness will not be in a hurry, and it is better to plan slowly. ”

Manto's previous hesitation was that he was afraid that Alan would be young and vigorous, and he would be in a hurry to do it after getting the list, which would be easy to do bad things, so he had to warn Allen.

Alan understands that Manto has good intentions, but if he reveals his plan in full, Manto probably wants to oppose it, or simply leave it alone.

"Well, I understand, by the way, Grand Priest Manto, who else has recently sided with the Council of Elders, you should have a number in mind, can you tell me all about them?"

Manto seemed a little entangled, this time he hesitated for much longer than before, but Alan didn't urge him, and urging at this time would inevitably leave Manto with the impression of not being mature and stable enough.

"Your Highness, some people don't necessarily take refuge over there, but ......"

"I know, I know. ”

Alan naturally understood what Manto wanted to say, there was no need to solve some wall grass at this time, after all, the Holy See would have to face external tests next, and it was not appropriate to carry out large-scale purges.

But that's not the way Alan thinks in his heart.

As far as Allen observed, there were more people in the Holy See who were idle, and there were vacancies in the positions, so there was no one to do it.

And it is precisely in order to deal with the next storm that these wall grass characters must be completely uprooted, so that the upper and lower levels can be united, anyway, tonight's action is already big enough, and it is not bad for this person.

"I just want to know who is so unresolute, and I should treat them differently in the future, so as not to make any big mistakes. ”

This statement is acceptable to Manto, and it sounds quite reasonable, although Manto wants to say that it is good to leave the position arrangement of these people to himself, but after thinking about it, for the prestige of His Highness the Holy Son, it is better not to say this.

So he picked up the quill pen on the table and wrote on a piece of paper, and under the fluent writing, a personal name gradually appeared on the paper, and it was also quietly imprinted in Allen's heart.

After looking at it for a moment, Alan then added: "By the way, there are also those old people in the Holy See who have stepped down, and those who have a tendency to support the Presbyterian Church, also tell me." ”

This time, Manto nodded and agreed without even thinking about it, mainly because Manto himself had been unhappy with these old guys for a long time, and the symbolic meaning of these people to the Holy See was far greater than the actual meaning, so Manto didn't care too much.

At the same time as Manto wrote the list, Alan had already opened the parchment in his hand, and after a little counting, there were less than ten names on it, this number made Alan a little puzzled, the Council of Elders that Edward IV had not taken so long to figure out was actually this person?

"Your Highness, these are only people who can be completely certain, and some are uncertain, in order to avoid alarming them, His Holiness the Pope has not done anything. ”

When he looked up, Manto just saw Allen's confusion and explained to him.

"There's still something I can't say for sure. ”

Alan rubbed his earlobe lightly, feeling a little uneasy, although he hoped that the Elders would be a thing of the past after tonight, but it seemed that this hope was not so easy to achieve.

"That's right, His Majesty the Pope has always felt that there will be members of the Elders with deep hiding, who may not have contact with other members on weekdays, but they may suddenly appear at any time. ”

Manto shook his head a little helplessly, and continued, "Maybe that's the reason, His Majesty the Pope and I have been a little estranged recently, which is why I don't know a lot of things after His Majesty's disappearance. ”

It was very much to Allen's surprise, Alan never thought that the Presbyterian Council would be able to force Edward IV to be suspicious of those close to him, which was completely inconsistent with Highland's reckless style.

After taking the list handed by Manto, Alan didn't mean to look at it immediately, but said to him, "Okay, you go out first." By the way, help me call Hansold, I have something. ”

Manto's expression tightened, his eyes fixed on the two lists on the table, as if he wanted to snatch them back.

"Okay, I won't act recklessly, what I want to talk about with Hanssad has nothing to do with the list, it's about the Dragon Empire, and we still have some treasures unearthed in the dwarven ruins to be transported to the Holy See. ”

Seeing that Eren said it well, Manto also breathed a sigh of relief, even if in Manto's opinion, the treasures in the dwarven ruins were completely unbusiness, it was better than Alan couldn't wait to do something to the Elders.

After Manto left, Alan glanced at the list a few more times, and sure enough, they were all names that Allen was completely unfamiliar with, even if he called all these people to the front, Alan estimated that he would not be able to match the number, so he didn't bother, and turned to look at the room.

The two silver candlesticks on the desk are very beautiful, with exquisite patterns carved around them, and if you look closely, they should be about the pattern of the Nine Holy Spirits, and they are also the most common decorative patterns in the Holy See.

"Huh?"

Allen's sudden discovery that the two candlesticks were actually fixed to the table was completely unreasonable, at least Alan had never seen anyone deliberately fix the candlesticks on the desk, unless it was some kind of mechanism!

With a bit of excitement and excitement, Alan turned the candlesticks with all his might, but no matter how hard he tried, the two candlesticks still didn't move.

I tried to turn the two candlesticks together, but the result was the same, it seemed that the two candlesticks were really just fixed on the desk, and had no other meaning.
