At this time, Hardy was a little stunned, he looked at the elderly Pope opposite, and his expression was a little puzzled.

"Your Excellency Hardy, I'm about to abdicate, so it's useless for you to tell me a lot of things."

The Pope's body is a little short, and it also looks a little rickety.

Hardy looked at each other, was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Then His Majesty the Pope called me over, what is it for?" ”

"Take the Holy Maiden and leave, you don't have to get involved in the troubled waters this time." As the Pope descended from the heights, he said in an indifferent tone, "This is not something you can participate in. ”

Hardy raised his eyebrows slightly, and he suddenly smiled: "Why has nothing to do with us." ”

"No matter which side you join, the benefits you will get in the end will not be too big, so why make a fuss." The Pope slowly walked to Hadi's side, turned his head to look at him, and his eyes were full of persuasion: "Religion and the world are different, there are different rules, and your power cannot be used here." ”

Hardy laughed and said, "How do you know if you don't try?" ”

"Young people are good and motivated."

The Pope nodded, said no more, and slowly left.

Several black-robed men followed.

Hardy emerged from the Papal Room and walked on the stone path.

His dress with the world has caused a lot of discussion.

Besides, the fact that the saint brought a man back and lived together was something worth talking about.

Ignoring the men's fingers, Hardy returned to the little room of the saint and found that Karina had prepared a lot of food and was waiting for him to return.

"How's it going? Why is the Pope looking for you! ”

Karina patted his clothes for him, brushing away the dust that wasn't there.

Hardy sat down and said, "The Pope seems to have misunderstood our intentions. ”

"Well, what do you mean?" Karina was puzzled.

"He said he was leaving office in three months, and he thought we were coming back to support a certain cardinal."

Karina was stunned for a moment, and then looked incredulous: "But isn't the Pope for life?" ”

"Can't you abdicate yourself?"

"Abdicate yourself? Someone forced him? Karina was smart, and she quickly understood: "In other words, he doesn't know what we're here for?" Has his power really been elevated to such a degree? ”

Hardy agreed, "In other words, the timing of our visit this time is actually not very good. Now the interior of the Bright Sect is actually very tense. ”

"Why didn't my aunt tell me this?" Karina was puzzled.

Hardy chuckled and said, "Maybe she doesn't know either, after all, you can see that she is more ...... Nothing. ”

He was tempted to say the word 'rotten,' but to think that it was a bit too much for a woman.

"Also, auntie, she really doesn't have any ambition and momentum."

Hardy asked curiously at this time, "Ms. Dikar shouldn't be your real aunt, what is her identity?" ”

"If you have to say it, I don't know how many generations have passed." Karina explained: "The original Queen Jeanne had a little princess, married to the Pope of the time, and then the blood flowed into the Holy See. My aunt is a member of that bloodline, and if I have to say it, she is from the Dikal family, not from our Genna lineage. It's just that you can also see that she looks very similar to the people of our Jeanne family! With a little bit of blood, it is also appropriate to call her an aunt. ”

Hardy sighed lightly: "I have to sigh that the blood of the Jeanna family is the stake, as long as it is stained, it is almost carved out of a mold." ”

"Wouldn't that be nice?" Karina held her chin in her hands and looked at Hardy tenderly: "This way you can have a lot of meal replacement options." ”

Hardy rolled her eyes helplessly.

"If the Pope misunderstood that we were not in the matter of electing the Pope, why can't we just do it?" Karina suddenly said: "We are pretending to support a certain cardinal and fishing in troubled waters. ”

Hardy thought for a moment and agreed, "This is a good idea, but we must first communicate with Ms. Minger and Ms. Dicar, after all, the two of them know our true intentions, and if we reveal it, the plan will fail." ”

"Well, when we're done eating, we'll get the two of them together and talk about it."

The two chatted and finished lunch, and then Karina took Hardy around the Bright Church, recognizing each other, and invited Elenina Minger to Dicard's house.

The two female cardinals are good friends in themselves, after all, in the entire church, there are only three female cardinals, and the relationship between the three is usually okay.

Elenina sat down unceremoniously in her chair, she looked at Dikar and said, "Isn't it interesting that you woman, you stay at home every day and tend with your little garden, and don't go out?" ”

Sharon laughed and teased, "You run around outside every day, and I don't see you getting any benefits." ”

"I couldn't stay idle, so I didn't think about getting any benefits."

"I'm different, I think I can enjoy life, why bother to work hard." Dikar snorted, then looked at Karina: "My good niece, you brought the two of us together, is there anything important you want to say?" ”

"That's ......"

Karina repeated Hardy's words.

Then the two female cardinal archbishops opposite each other showed surprised faces.

They had no idea that the situation of the Pope had become so bad that they were being forced to step down.

They are completely unaware.

"So we want to count it out...... Teacher, auntie, you didn't tell anyone else about Hadi's visit. ”

Sharon pulled down the skirt of the nun's robe, folded her legs, and leaned back slightly on the back of the chair: "I stay at home every day, and no one talks to anyone about these things. ”

Elenina also smiled and said, "I've been busy with my own affairs for the past two days, and I haven't told anyone about His Excellency Hardy's intention. ”

"That's good." Karina clapped her hands gently, her face full of joy: "Then let's sum up who should be supported on the throne." While finding out the truth, why not take advantage of the situation to make some political capital for yourself! ”

The two cardinal archbishops were stunned, and they couldn't think of anyone for a while.

After all...... They don't really care about politics.

Karina looked left and right at the two of them, and then whispered, "Why don't I suggest a personal choice?" ”

"Who do you like?" Sharon asked.

"Goebbels, who was born as a commoner, how?"

Both cardinal archbishops looked disgusted.

"He's so ugly."

"He's not good-looking!"

Karina was speechless for a moment: "This kind of thing requires ability, not beauty pageant men, how many men are both good-looking and capable!"

The two cardinals pointed at Hardy at the same time, but neither was silent.

Then Karina fell silent as well. (End of chapter)
