139 The Great Mass
After a while.
The stone staircase leading to the star boat was already lit up, and the guards of the Grand Duke's Mansion illuminated the place with torches in their handsβand many soldiers of the Episcopal Church were present, led by Alexander, to patrol the scene and reconnoiter the assassins of the Grand Duke's dignitaries.
However, such a bold gangster naturally has some strength, and the soldiers and the Grand Duke's Mansion searched several times but found nothing, but the monarch of Simeng actually waved his hand.
"Since there are no casualties, there is no need to chase anymore."
Han Dongwen waved his hand, and the official of the Grand Duke's Mansion who came to report was stunned when he heard this, and turned his head to look at the Grand Duke beside him.
Tilda nodded slightly, and the official straightened his back, nodded and turned to leave.
"Can you get the church in trouble right away?"
When there was no one around, Han Dongwen stood next to Tilda, looked at the group of people who were busy with their work, and asked softly.
Tilda looked at him, but his eyes were not as cold as before, and replied in a low voice: "No, although now fools know that it is the church that is looking for trouble, but if it is too sensitive to find fault now." β
Han Dongwen nodded thoughtfully: "Hmm...... In this case, this matter will pass like this, if Simeng makes a fuss again, it will become the fault of your Grand Mansion again. β
Not long ago, in the Seven Senses of the Heart King Realm of Huang Zigao, Han Dongwen made a decision that he had never expected beforehand.
Not by borrowing the knife of the church to cut down the Grand Duke's Mansion to benefit Simeng - but to stand on the side of the Grand Duke's Mansion!
Naturally, this is the instruction of the prince Gao.
And the promise given by the prince Gao is naturally something that Han Dongwen can't refuse-that is, a few months later, that is possible, when the kings fall, there will be a chance to escape this catastrophe and know the truth.
Whether he will really fulfill this promise, Han Dongwen is certainly not sure.
However, from the fact that the fall of the kings revealed to Han Dongwen would happen, Han Dongwen at least knew that Huang Zigao was not a white wolf with empty gloves, but did know some real things that he didn't know.
As for the benefits given to Simeng......
He raised his head to look at the Grand Duke's back, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
The original loss-making imperial merchants raised their prices by fifty percent, while the private merchants who were originally private traders were exempt from tax by four cents, and within the five cities under Moen-Bailan Mountain, the border garrison was relaxed, so that the Simeng people could enter the five cities.
Compared to the treaties between Si and Mongolia and West Asia in previous years, this is undoubtedly the almost maximum concession that can be operated in private.
As for the bright side, everything remains the same, at least in the eyes of the people of West Asia, the Grand Duke is still the one who can lead the country to strength, and Tilda does not intend to destroy the expectations of the peopleβas long as the great day passes, and the fanaticism for the church in the country is lessened, these losses will be recovered from the church.
The West Asian captives escorted on the star boat will be secretly handed over to the Grand Duke's Mansion as witnesses, so as not to fall into the hands of the church.
"So, when will the church be less sensitive?" Han Dongwen asked.
Tilda turned her head to look at the Simeng monarch she didn't think much of before, and at this time she had realized that the powerless and weak Han Dongwen in front of her was not the character she imagined to ignore at will.
"After the old year passes, when the new year comes, the Catholic Church of God will hold a mass to support the people to do good deeds in the name of God, and it is naturally difficult to move them at this time, but this year ......"
Tilda turned his head to look at the priests below: "This year is the Great Mass, and the Pope will be handed over, so you need to be especially cautious." β
"The Great Mass......
Han Dongwen nodded as if he didn't understand, like every player who pays more attention to operations and values, he only has some impressions of the content that is too background, and when he practiced on the map of the original West Asian Principality, there were indeed many events with a background from the new pope's accession to the throne.
At that time, Han Dongwen only left as the Grand Duke, and the new pope took the throne and began to implement the unity of Orthodoxy, which belonged to the background of the game, and he didn't think too much about it, but now combined with the various actions of the Church of God, it seems that they obviously have a plan, and the biggest black hand is the new pope who is about to come to power.
"Then, if you are already at ease, please rest early, and tomorrow we will make up for the signatures that we have not had time tonight, and we will show you the parish of Tharris."
Tilda sighed lightly and turned to Han Dongwen and said.
Listening to her words, Han Dongwen nodded, suddenly seemed to remember something, and said again: "By the way, there is another question." β
Tilda hesitated: "You say." β
"His Royal Highness the Prince said that you and I were already destined to be doomed in the future, why did you believe him when he told you like this?"
This is a very real problem.
Han Dongwen won't talk about it - he has watched the PV of the game, and he has played nearly three major versions and crossed over, and he has too much information to testify that what Huang Zigao said is true.
But what about Tilda?
It is impossible for a person of her character to have access to this information in Han Dongwen's hands, why would she believe what Huang Zigao said and thus stand on his side?
Tilda raised his eyes to look at Han Dongwen and said softly: "Han, you may not be a very stupid person. β
didn't know how to answer, Han Dongwen could only smile.
"The Grand Duke of the Principality of West Asia did not side with the prince."
Tilda stood up straight, turned his head and raised his hand slightly, the ice spear on the steps that constantly exuded a cold breath shattered into a piece of crystal powder, countless small fragments of powder flickered with the light of the fire candle next to her, like a wave of a galaxy, and slowly flew back to Tilda's hand in the wind, like a bracelet condensed by light dust, slowly rotating around her arm.
"The Grand Duke has never been on the side of the prince."
"Rather," she repeated, "rather...... There is only one way to escape under Huang Ziyu's hands. β
"Yu?"
Han Dongwen was a little dumbfounded.
Tilda raised her eyes to look at him, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly for a rare moment: "Okay, these are my own business, you don't have to know too much." β
She raised her hand and gently stroked her silver hair: "If you don't believe His Royal Highness the Emperor Gao, I can understand it, but the deal we propose right now is not bad for you, and I don't think you have any reason to refuse." β
Tilda paused and looked in the direction of Xingzhou: "There is such a big thing tonight, you should take care of your two princesses, I heard that in Simeng, the concubine is your property and not your partner, although I find it difficult to agree, but even if it is property, the more beautiful the gem, the more it needs careful care, let's see you tomorrow." β
"Good night, Han."
She waved her hand, and instead of floating in the air, she gently spread her legs and led her subordinates to the bottom of the steps.
Han Dongwen looked at her back, sighed heavily, and turned to walk towards Xingzhou.
Good night?
Laughing to death, he can't settle down at all, even if the matter between Simeng and West Asia comes to an end, the internal affairs of Simeng are still blocked in Han Dongwen's heart.
"Your Highness."
He was greeted by Zhong Lilin, who returned to the boat and was waiting for him.
Han Dongwen stepped on the deck of the Xingzhou and glanced around: "What about Li Zai?" Come to the portside hall together. β
To Han Dongwen's surprise, Zhong Lilin suddenly bowed his head and said, "Your Highness, if you can, Weichen hopes to say something to Your Highness first." β
He looked Zhong Lilin up and down, and nodded slowly:
"Okay."
