"Your Majesty, things have been a bit out of our minds, the news has spread quickly and with good results." Sophia reports.

"Really?" Erin originally thought that it would take a certain amount of time and have to deal with the church to achieve the results she wanted, but she didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

"Is the church so wasteful?" Erin asked unabashedly, as she had the impression that the church had always been a behemoth.

Sophia smiled and replied, "No, it was Claire who also took action, helping us expand things a little bit and speeding up the spread of those news." ”

"The news spread so fast, and there were so many outbreaks that the church simply didn't have time to react. After the matter fermented, it was useless for them to block it. ”

"Claire—" Erin was a little distracted when she heard the name, and her eyes seemed to have the face that was always smiling.

When I have some time, let's go to Nafu City, I miss him a little.

Sophia suddenly said, "Oh yes, he also took this opportunity to get a border count in the dungeon, I think he should have the intention of annexing that territory." ”

"I know that." Erin immediately showed a smile and said with a smile: "He's no longer here, and he's still teaching me how to do things." ”

"Huh?" Sophia didn't understand what Erin meant.

"Go ahead, learn to use this excuse to suppress those nobles who have ideas recently, and uproot the nobles who were close to the church before."

Sophia nodded suddenly, indeed this excuse is very useful, except for some nobles who are at odds with the church, the other nobles are more or less connected to the church.

At this time, using this excuse is basically nine out of ten, as long as those big nobles are not moved, and those small nobles with low hands are pulled out, then they will have to bear this loss to the death.

Although Erin has succeeded in ascending to the throne, the entire kingdom is not monolithic, nor is it left to her to do whatever she wants. For example, some nobles whose interests are tied up, they are an interest group, and if one of them is moved, it may cause a counterattack by their entire interest group, such as not carrying out orders or disobeying them.

For example, those nobles who are attached to the six great magisters, the five great sword saint families, and the noble families themselves. There is also competition between them, resources are fixed, and only by competing can they seek more benefits for themselves.

Now belonging to Erin's cronies are the Augusta family, one of the six magisters, and the Swordmaster of Huberon.

In addition to the Merlin family, which does not have to compete for Edith's Magister father, there are four Magus families and four Juggernaut families.

They all need to seek benefits for their own families, and it is impossible to rely on what Irene says is what they are, they all need to be gamed.

So this is also the reason why Claire has successfully ascended to the throne in Erin, and she has become one of the largest forces in the kingdom, and she has to use various means to annex other territories.

It's the rule, if you want to play, you have to play according to the rules. If you don't want to play and plan to flip the table, then you have to see if you have the strength.

Alone against the aristocracy of the entire kingdom, Claire felt that she was not capable of it now.

These interest groups gather together to join the group in order to seek more benefits for themselves. But resources are limited, and if they want to get more benefits, then they have to take resources from other people's mouths.

But when they seize resources, they grow stronger. After the balance is broken, then there will be chaos, waiting for the next new balance to arrive.

And Irene, as the king of the kingdom, is the one who controls the balance of the country, only when the various forces in the country are balanced, then this huge machine can continue to operate, the country will not have any turmoil, and those civilians can continue to live their own peaceful lives.

And now this church's reason can just give her an excuse to beat other forces, and other forces also know that this is an excuse, but the excuse is too good, and the environment is here, and she can only endure the beating.

……

"Lord Randolph! We can't keep things down. A cardinal said with an ugly face that his church had made people throw rotten eggs more than once.

Randolph's expression was also very ugly, after the Pope was arrested, he, a cardinal who came down from the church, naturally became the acting pope of the Church of Light in this country.

He is just one resignation from the Pope before he becomes the official Pope, and if nothing else, he will be the next Pope.

But Randolph doesn't want to be some bullshit pope here, this is completely leaving the mess to deal with by himself, how can this situation be recovered!

He didn't know that these priests and bishops had so many dirty things, and now he had to wipe their butts.

If things continue like this, the church's reputation in this country will be rotten!

But there is really not much he can do, the conspiracy of the previous Pope and the second prince was caught red-handed. They were at a loss, otherwise they would have used the power of the church to fight Erin and them.

But in the case of a loss, if you really fight it, then it is really the same as Claire said before, is it planning to launch a second holy war?

The previous holy war had drawn a clear line, they were not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and then the kingdoms were not allowed to prevent them from proselytizing.

Now that they are at a loss, their interference in internal affairs has been discovered, so they can only admit it, passively being beaten and silently defending, if they take the initiative to fight back, it may cause worse things to happen.

"Why don't we let those lords forbid the spread of the word in their realm?" A post-cardinal proposed.

As soon as the words came out, they were opposed by another bishop.

"Now those nobles are unable to protect themselves, and several nobles have been captured in the dungeon. And let them help us? They didn't even dare to contact us. ”

Randolph sighed when he heard this, and he could be regarded as feeling the mood of the fallen macaques scattered in the tree.

"Then let's kill those who are spreading everywhere, and we can reduce the speed of transmission a little."

Randolph immediately rolled his eyes, what a stupid person can say.

"There are so many people who know about this, have you finished killing it! It's because you have this kind of thinking that so many bad things happen! Randolph yelled.

"What then?" None of the cardinals present dared to look up.

"Address the source first."

"The source?"

"Well, Your Majesty Irene."

"Assassinate her? But now that she is a king, it is too difficult. ”

Randolph stood up angrily, pointed at the bishop who spoke, and scolded, "What is your head! Do you think about killing people all day long! ”

The cardinal shrunk his neck and said aggrievedly: "Then the Pope, you can do whatever you say." ”

"The previous peace talks with her did not come to fruition, as long as the matter is reconciled, there is no source and people who promote the spread of the news, and the later things will be easily resolved."

It's really good to solve, pull out a few iconic priests and bishops in the news to come out and kill them, and calm down the people's anger first. Then release some other smoky news to obscure the previous negative news.

In the end, I took out a few specific cases to reverse black and white, packaged the church as a victim of public opinion, and then made a few painful reflections, and reported myself and pulled out a few unimportant figures to behead the public, as long as those events were profound enough, and then this black and white incident, the church's reputation sentence can be initially redeemed.

As for the back, they will slowly come back, they are doing this work, and they are very skilled.
