Chapter VII Politics

The death of the diocesan bishop seemed rather bizarre, and according to a templar who had followed him for many years, the diocesan bishop behaved normally throughout the day: during the day the presiding officer inquired about the deaths of the papal members of the previous sects, and the dinner was fixed at six o'clock in the evening, followed by the usual vespers, when it was close to seven o'clock, followed by the examination of the papers. Perhaps discovering something suspicious about the death of the papal seeker, he summoned a deacon who left near eight o'clock in the evening, after which the diocesan bishop remained in the house for almost twenty minutes, and then had a regular vespers in the room, which ended at ten o'clock in the evening, after which he left the house and went to the prepared bedhouse for rest.

The twenty Templars brought by the diocesan bishop were ten patrolling the outside of the church, eight were patrolling the interior, and the remaining two were guarding the door of the house, and when it was close to one o'clock in the morning, the diocesan bishop came out of the house, dressed in his pajamas, and only nodded to the two Templars outside the door, and whispered, "No need to follow." Then he walked straight to the back of the church.

And then never came back!

When his body was found the next day, it turned out to be under the bell tower of the church.

The church has two entrances, a small door for the entrance and exit of the papal see, and a chapel door for the prayer of the faithful, both of which lead to the rear of the church, and then from the outside to the inside are the sitting hall (baptistery), the chapel (containing the choir and the confessional room), the chapel (the priest's office), the sanctuary (the place where the doctrine and the council are conducted), and the residences of the various classes of the papal seekers, the priests, the friars and the nuns are separated by a long distance, passing through the sitting hall, the chapel and the nave respectively.

The bell tower of the church is located at the last point of the building of the Holy See, and the diocesan bishop has to pass through a long corridor through the chapel, chapel, nave and nave through the monk's quarters, and then reach the bell tower for almost five minutes (normal walking speed) without being noticed by any person.

The body was discovered by a team of Templars patrolling at night as they approached the highlight at night.

The fatal part was the head, which looked like the diocesan bishop was trying to walk into the bell tower when he stepped into the air, fell down the steps without guardrails on either side, and then hit his head on a stone on the ground, killing him instantly.

The hierarchy of the Temple of Light from top to bottom is Cardinal ~ Overarchbishop ~ Archbishop ~ Diocesan Bishop ~ Priest ~ Monk and Nun.

To be able to obtain such a high status in the Holy See of the Temple of Light, the diocesan bishop's own divine skill level has reached level six, although it is not very high, but it is almost impossible to die on a stone in such a scumbag.

But judging from the scene, this is how a miracle happened.

All believers are blinded!

So, another archbishop came to Kibu Town, and after nearly half a month, until today, he has not been able to find out the truth of the matter.

Something so bizarre that it continued to happen in a territory that Darnell could no longer keep his composure.

At the same time, the Emperor of the Empire, through negotiations with the upper echelons of the Temple of Light, severely reprimanded Darnell for his inaction and ordered him to find out the truth in the shortest possible time.

Darnell shook his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp: "Those bad things within the Holy See should be handled by themselves, I have never wanted to interfere, just for fear of causing some trouble, but now it seems that there are no big troubles, but there are a lot of small troubles." ”

Chrissy smiled: "According to the usual style of the Holy See, it is a little strange to me that this matter will be delayed for so long - aren't they afraid that the longer it drags on, the more believers will be lost?"

Darnell poured himself again, thought for a moment, took out another bottle and filled it, drank most of it in one go, and then filled it again, before saying, "So I suspect that the Holy See is dragging its feet." ”

Chris thought for a moment, and nodded knowinglyβ€”if the current archbishop in Kib was in the process of being promoted, his rival, perhaps another archbishop, was undoubtedly hoping that the affairs in Kib had not been clarified.

Darnell whispered, "I think it's coming to an end - he's not a fool." ”

Chris looked at his father in bewilderment.

"To explain something from beginning to end, sometimes it's not so necessary, and even a scapegoat is all you need. He removed the smile from his face, looked at his son and said in a deep voice, "This is the dirtiness of politics!"

Chris thought for a moment, was a little confused, blinked, picked up his glass and took a small sip.

"If we assume that there is a murderer in this matter, why should we report it in full and detail about the murder of him?

Perhaps, you can also push the people who died in the Holy See before him together, and it is completely vague how to do it. ”

"There can be no scandal in the Holy See, and if there is, it can only be one of them. ”

Chris frowned.

Darnell smiled: "You are the destined nobleman in the future, and you are also the future lord of this Kibu town, you will never be able to avoid politics," he looked at his son's expression, "Do you think that all the bad things in this world should be publicized, and all the bad people should be brought to justice?"

Chris thought for a moment and reluctantly said, "Not exactly, but roughly so." ”

Darnell shook his head and smiled, "I told you the night before you went to Lantis Academy: many people... Even most people, in their lifetime, cannot simply be judged as a good person or a bad person, maybe he has only done good once and is seen, and he does bad things when he is not seen, or vice versa. ”

"So in the present case, the aristocracy cannot simply classify it as a good person or a bad person, but to see what good it can give me, and how to avoid the bad. ”

Darnell drank another glass of wine: "Telling you this, I don't want you to become such a person, such a nobleman. Rather, it is to tell you what kind of position we should stand in when we are in a dangerous situation, and then protect ourselves and the people we want to protect. ”

When he left his father's study and returned to his bedroom, Chris felt a little dizzy.

Maybe it's my father's drink!

Politics!

That's politics!

In his previous life, a rising and fighting small people actually wanted to get involved in this damn politics in this life?

Is this why my father has repeatedly asked him to keep his distance from the nobles in the imperial capital?
