When Angelia heard this, she said, "So she went to the Knights Templar...... Since none of us knew about it, it was probably the Pope's secret arrangement. She probably didn't lie to you, Illya is known to have a crush on you, and even thought of resigning as cardinal, which the Pope did not like to see. As the captain of Eliya's guard, it is not incomprehensible that Kaliobi wants to get rid of you and let Illya succeed with peace of mind. ”

Mei Yi said helplessly: "Bishop Angelia, I have no intention of offending. Although the priest has a special identity, he is also a woman after all, and he inevitably has seven emotions and six desires, and it is normal for the opposite sex to have some good feelings. I don't understand why the Pope is so sensitive to this. Also, Kaliobi didn't do anything wrong, why can't the Pope tolerate her, but he can tolerate Illya. ”

Angelia said, "It's not an offense. When Calliobi made her mistake, her identity as First Cardinal had not been revealed, and the man was still from an aristocratic family, so if he found out about Calibio's identity, the main temple and Calliobi would be disgraced. It has been four years since Illya became First Cardinal. If she resigns, the church will also lose face. The Pope had to wait for her to change her mind. ”

Meiyi had a headache and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

Angelia said, "Do you want Illya to be the Pope?" ”

Mei Yi was surprised: "It's not something I hope you don't want, right?" This is a matter for the main temple, and I don't want to get involved. I have a good relationship with Illya, but among the cardinals, Loloki is my sister and Liuluo is my sister-in-law, even if I want to get involved, it seems that I can't get Illya's turn, right? Besides, most of the people in the country are followers of the Emilian Goddess Cult, so if the church is in chaos, what good will it do me? ”

Angelia said: "If you can convince Illya to take over as Pope, the matter will be settled." This does not count as interference in ecclesiastical affairs, because this is also the wish of the Pope and several cardinals. If you do, you'll become a benefactor to the church. ”

Mei Yi waved her hand and said: "Come on, I want to hold a blind date for a few of my single female ministers, and I was charged with interfering with the freedom of marriage." When and not is Illya's own business, she has the freedom to choose......"

Angelia sighed: "Meiyi, you also said that the priest is also an ordinary woman. They can also be flustered and helpless at times, and what they need is not the freedom of choice, but someone who can make decisions for them. Freedom is great, but it's not always a necessity. Sometimes, I think you'...... Anyway, it's really not as good as when it was in the Elven Kingdom. In the past, you would never say such a thing. ”

Mei Yi was shocked.

Freedom is not a necessity all the time.

Angelia's words were like thunder, blowing him up.

Angelia didn't notice Meiyi's expression, and continued: "You also know that among the cardinals, I, Liuluo, and Luo Luoqi are all from famous families, and our parents are very fond and obedient, and we have lacked nothing since we were children. This is not the case with Kalibio and Illya, who were orphans adopted by the Church and have no one to rely on since childhood. You won't understand what a trustworthy and trustworthy person means to Illya, and you won't know how they will break down if you tell her that it's all your freedom. ”

Mei Yi scratched her head and said, "Then what should I do?" You're not going to persuade me to marry Illya, are you? Not to mention the elven kingdom, the goddess cultists of Melovi have to tear my hands apart. The temple of the goddess will also lose face. ”

Angelia said, "It's very difficult. Although Illya seems to be weak and weak, she is actually a very determined girl, and she can give up everything to accomplish what she believes in. ”

Mei Yi roared: "Sure enough, you still persuaded me to marry Illya!" ”

Angelia gave a rare smile: "I didn't say that. ”

Mei Yi said: "Bishop Angelia, is there a way to arrange for me to meet with the Pope?" ”

Angelia was stunned for a moment and said, "What are you going to do?" ”

Mei Yi thought for a while and said, "Forget it, will it be less difficult to help me transfer a letter to her?" ”

Angelia said, "Yes. What do you want to do? Have you finally decided to propose to the Pope to marry Illya? ”

Mei Yi said distressedly: "Don't make fun of me anymore." The main purpose was twofold, one was to improve the living conditions of the priests. Pure suffering will not do the priest any benefit in maintaining faith in the goddess. The second is to protect Kaliobi. I've heard of the Templar Order, and if the mission fails, it would be lifeless. But what Callio Bi did was an attempted intentional homicide in our country, and she could not be sentenced to death, not to mention that she had been pardoned by me. If the Templars dared to enter Merovë, they would be immediately detained—such blatant defiance of our Melovêvi laws would not be permitted. ”

After a pause, Mei Yi said: "As for Illya's matter, I really can't come forward to do anything, and I'm not qualified to make decisions for her. After all, it was my best friend who silently supported and helped me all the way during the most difficult time, and I couldn't find fault with her, and it was false to say that I didn't have any good feelings for her. If it weren't for her status as a priest, maybe she would have ...... Love is not shameful, but the most powerful thing in our world. Anyway, goodbye, Bishop Angelia, I will send for it when the letter is written. You sit, you don't have to send me. ”

After Meiyi left, Angelia was just about to drink water, when a white flower fell into her water glass.

A gust of wind blew, and the white flowers on the trees fell like snow.

Now, it's autumn.

The red leaves in the distance are dyed, and the majestic snow-capped mountains are set against each other, creating an indescribable magnificent beauty.

Angelia picked out the flowers and drank the water from the cup.

She turned to the room next to the garden and said, "All right, Your Excellency, the people are gone, you can come out." ”

A white-haired, holy, elegant woman came out of the room and sat down across from Angelia.

Angelia poured her a glass of water, "Did you hear what Mei Yi said just now?" ”

Pope Carppeossu nodded.

Angelia said, "What are you going to do with Kaliobi?" ”

Pope Clepeossu's voice was as warm as the sun: "What do you think, Angelia? ”

Angelia said: "Hunt down Calliobi, the Church of the Goddess will be completely expelled from Glovi, and the Church of Mega will be completely independent, and you will lose more than half of the cardinals." You've been in Merovi for almost half a year, so you know I'm right. As far as I know, many of the eight cardinals were sympathetic to Callio Bi. ”

The Pope was silent, but the bustling city and business circle on the other side of the Roselle River in front of him were silent.

Angelia added, "You should be glad that Kaliobi didn't complete the task. Most of the people of the elven kingdom of this kingdom were persecuted and exploited by the nobles in the elven kingdom and could not survive, and King Meiyi was their core and pillar, and he was also the giant anchor of this new kingdom in the midst of radical changes. If Meiyi died, both the Melovi Kingdom and the Elven Kingdom would be bloody. In the worst-case scenario, the Goddess Cult may be spurned by everyone, and the Demonic Beast will no longer be stopped. ”

"Do you think I should give Illya both hands?" ”

Angelia said quietly, as always, "Your Excellency, you still haven't understood Illya. If it weren't for her love for the affairs of the church, Elijah would not be in such a painful dilemma. Please give Illya more time and let her make her own decisions, okay? ”

While the Pope was pondering, Angelia said: "Did you prophesy for Illya?" If you find it difficult to choose, why not refer to the prophecy? ”

"Angelia, I prophesied for Agilu, she should have been reduced to a prisoner in the coup d'état, tortured and humiliated, but had to bear children for the putschists, and finally died a tragic death," the Pope sighed. However, when I saw the newborn babbling Agilu, I could not honestly say such things to the expectant king and queen...... Since then, I have stopped prophesying. ”

Angelia said, "You might as well prophecy again, I think the distractions have been removed." ”

The Pope closed his eyes, his jade-like white hair fluttering in the wind, and his whole body radiated a strange light.

Angelia just drank the water quietly.

The Pope suddenly opened his eyes and said, "I see." ”

She let out a long sigh, "But, it's too ridiculous for me to believe." I won't tell you, lest you make fun of me. ”

Angelia said, "Hopefully, this prophecy will make you make the best decision. ”

"I will try," the Pope said. Angelia, I also see your future. ”

Angelia said, "You don't have to tell me, I'm not interested in it at all, and I don't want to be affected by the prophecy. ”

The Pope said, "Kaliobi ...... I'm not going to pursue it anymore, so I'll go back and say that I have another appointment and am engaged in a secret mission. ”

Angelia said, "Oh. ”

The Pope added: "Angelia, I have never instructed Calliobi to assassinate King Meiyi. I just told her about Illya's love and reluctance to take over as Pope. ”

Angelia said: "For you, who once said everything and killed decisively, this is already tantamount to making it clear. ”

The Pope said serenely: "Angelia, you seem to be particularly unhappy with me in this matter. ”

Angelia said: "Meiyi has so many enemies, but he has never used assassination or assassination. Serena told me that Mei Yi felt that by doing so, Mei Luowei's reputation would be completely ruined. The reputation of the temple of the goddess has always been the most cherished thing in my heart. ”

While the two were talking, someone at the door of the temple shouted, "Is Bishop Angelia there?" I'm from the palace, and I have a letter from King Meiyi. ”

Angelia said: "He moves really fast. ”

When he had finished speaking, he got up and took the letter.
