Chapter 154: Declaring War (Subscription Requested!! )
The next day, at 8 a.m., Marvey was eating breakfast while picking up the newspaper that Mrs. Cecil had ironed.
This is yesterday's "Times", the royal capital on the East Island is far away from New Ross City on the West Island, where the newspaper from printing to transportation takes at least a whole night to reach New Ross City, which is already the fastest speed, so Ma Wei can only see yesterday's "Times".
He picked up a piece of bacon and stuffed it into his mouth, stared at the front page of the newspaper, and read:
"Pope Paul III died after a few days of resuscitation, the murderer has been caught, interrogated as a spy from the Romanov kingdom, whose assassination was to carry out the religious purge plan of the Romanov King Paul I..."
Although everyone is called Paul, the pope of the Church of the Three Goddesses of Fate has nothing to do with the king of the Romanov kingdom, but just happens to have the same name, which is very common, so it is necessary to distinguish it by a surname, middle name or patronymic.
The news of the Pope's death was not a surprise to everyone, but rather a foreseeable 'future'.
Bishop Fowler, who can activate the realm of eternal life, can protect thousands of people from death and immortality, let alone a pope?
As long as the Church of the Three Goddesses of Fate is willing, Pope Paul III will definitely be able to save his life, but he is still dead, and no one knows how many power, politics and interests are involved behind it except for the parties in the royal capital.
Someone wanted him to die, there was a group of people who wanted him to die, everyone wanted him to die, and so he died.
Like Caesar, who was assassinated by the Senate.
This is a kind of sadness.
The next news is still important, with a simple headline, full of murderous energy.
[The Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny launched a holy war, targeting the Romanov Kingdom]
Everything seems to make sense...
Pope Paul III was assassinated, such arrogant behavior cannot be tolerated, the identity of the murderer is no longer important, the anger of the believers needs to be vented, the dignity of the kingdom needs to be defended, and war is inevitable.
A huge machine was launched, armed with the most advanced weapons, and attacked from four directions.
Ma Wei and the others, who were far away in the West Island, did not feel the smoke of the war at all, and the city of New Ross was still calm, but a national war was going on on a piece of land thousands of kilometers away.
Today is still the wedding day of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, and the wedding will not start until noon, but at this moment, many people have already gathered near Ross Avenue.
In order to spread the news more widely, Bishop Fowler also took great pains to choose Saturday as the wedding day.
Yunia imitated her father, one hand and one fast child, and struggled to pick up a piece of fried egg and put it in her mouth, but as soon as she was halfway through, the egg 'snapped' and fell off and fell on the table.
The little black eye squatting next to him was fast, rushed up and took the egg away, licked his lips after eating, and looked at the goddess expectantly, "Come on, come on!" ”
Edward and Fat Orange both went out to find something to eat, and Qasim sat across the table, seeing that the source was frowning and worried, looking at the plate in front of him in a daze, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Came, why don't you eat breakfast?" ”
"Ahh ”
"Why not?" Ma Wei asked casually.
"Boss, do you think, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince marries the Holy Maiden Yin Fulin, which can dispel Bishop Fowler's doubts, and it will be more convenient to pass on a message or help secretly or something, which is also good for us!"
"Of course there are benefits, but you can't just look at the surface..."
Ma Wei took a sip of black tea and began to spread salty butter on the bread, "The current Fourth Prince, you must not be in a hurry, he must be patient, marrying the Holy Maiden Yin Fulin can certainly deepen the cooperative relationship between him and Bishop Fowler, but this will cause the king and the other three princes to be vigilant." ”
"The Church of the Three Goddesses of Destiny has three archbishops, each supporting different princes, the eldest prince was named Duke of Wales and is a veritable first crown prince, and standing behind him is none other than Cardinal Ubley, who believes in the goddess of health."
"Let's ask, when the news of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince's marriage to the holy daughter Yin Fulin reaches back to the royal capital, what will the first crown prince think? Is he happy for his fourth brother, or does he think that the fourth prince threatens his position? ”
The communication opened its mouth and was speechless.
"With the current power of His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, it is not enough to wrestle with the First Crown Prince. His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince agreed to marry, he had to agree to marry Yin Fulin, only in this way could he gain the trust of Bishop Fowler, but he actually couldn't marry the holy daughter Yin Fulin, so he needed someone to stand up against him and mess up this wedding. ”
"......" the source thought for a while and said, "Is this the result of the discussion between you and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, Boss?" ”
"No, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince didn't know that someone would mess with his wedding today."
Ma Wei said with a calm face: "His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince's ambition is too great, the starting point is different, and the judgment made is also different, he thinks that the situation in the royal capital is chaotic, even if the eldest prince is suspicious, he will not be able to pose a too effective threat to him during the war, after all, they are all princes, and their identities are there, and many schemes cannot be used." ”
"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince is not wrong to think so, after marrying the Holy Maiden Yin Fulin, he and Bishop Fowler will be completely bound, that is to say, no matter what tricks the eldest prince makes, Bishop Fowler will also help him openly and secretly."
"But I always feel that the Holy Maiden Yin Fulin is wrong, she does not seem to be a simple Holy Maiden, this Edward agrees with me, if Yin Fulin has a problem herself, His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince who married her will be in deep crisis, at that time we have already left New Ross City, and we cannot provide effective help, what should we do if we are in trouble?"
"Oh..."
The communication nodded, somewhat understood: "So Boss, you chose a more secure approach. ”
"That's right, my idea is that when we return, we can naturally put His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince on the throne, and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince's idea is to fight for it himself and ascend to the throne with the help of our power, and there is a master-slave relationship between the two." "He doesn't want to pin his hopes on us, and I don't want him to fall into a crisis because of some uncontrollable factors," Ma Wei said with a smile. ”
"Then let's stir up the yellow wedding, won't it disrupt His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince's plan?"
"It's going to be disrupted, but at the end of the day, it's the same old saying..."
Swallowing the bread in his mouth, Ma Wei said softly: "If you want to gain the trust of Bishop Fowler, you don't necessarily have to go through marriage, as long as His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince reacts quickly enough, this scene can continue to sing!" ”
