The Black Death was a headache for Philip VI.

But even more troubling was the defeat at the Battle of Crécy and the loss of the Calais territory.

If you want to recapture Calais, you have to spend money, and where will the army come from without spending money?

The aristocracy refused to pay the money or pay the taxes, and the pope could not protect himself, because the Black Death was the first to spread from the south.

In the southern corner of the Kingdom of France, Avignon was first affected by the Black Death, and the people around Clement VI were infected with the Black Death, and a third of his men died in the early days.

Because of the Prisoner of Avignon, the rise of the French monarchy and the decline of the clergy.

The supremacy of the Holy See began to become a vassal of the royal power during this event.

Clement VI had some complaints about Philip VI, especially after the defeat.

Now that his scalp is numb from the Black Death, Philip VI is still happy in Paris, and he even holds a council of the Estates-General to ask everyone for money to fight?

That's why I said that in this delicate situation, the appearance of Feier broke everything.

There is no doubt that Phil is first and foremost an aristocracy, but the royal family and the Holy See now know that Phil has received God's revelation and knows that Phil has the means to control and cure the Black Death.

Therefore, in the eyes of the royal family and the Holy See, Fei'er is extremely fragrant.

However, the problem lies in the letter written by Phil.

Philip made it clear that in God's Word, Philip VI was the rightful king of France, and she would support Philip VI in retaking the territory that belonged to France and fighting against the Kingdom of England.

Philip VI was happy, but the Pope was distressed.

Of course, they are afraid that Fei'er is a real saint, but they are even more afraid that the real saint will stand on the side of the royal family.

The Holy Maiden did not have a clear position in the Holy See, but she had a great say in the Holy Woman's support for Philip VI

In the future, if Philip VI wants to impose taxes on the Holy See and get money, he doesn't need to ask the Pope, just let the Holy Virgin Phil nod.

"God has asked the Holy Maiden to support me to recapture Cala, what happened to me letting your Holy See pay me to fight the war?"

As long as Philip was on Philip VI's side, this sentence would surely come out of Philip VI's mouth and smash into the Pope's face.

And the Pope now has a hard time denying the identity of Phil, because she is indeed able to control and treat the Black Death, so what is this not a miracle?

This can only be a miracle.

But if it is a miracle, then Phil Raya is a real saint, and a real saint can't let her easily stand on the side of the royal family!

Otherwise, the Holy See will completely become the waistband pocket of the royal family, and everything will be messed up.

"I said, Miss Raya is still young and weak, and you want her to travel all the way south to Avignon to see the Pope? What are you kidding England, not to mention the fact that there are many refugees in the south, and if something happens on the way, how many of you can afford to take responsibility? ”

"It's about Miss Raya's definition of Holy Religious identity. Or official, do you think Miss Raya's identity is not important? Now the entire kingdom of France is waiting for Miss Raya to come to her rescue, and the people of the kingdom are still suffering from the Black Death! Miss Raya goes south every night, and the people of the kingdom suffer one more day, and you can't bear to see these things happen! ”

In the banquet hall, the officials of the kingdom and the clergy of the Holy See were already arguing.

This situation really didn't happen to Fei'er.

Before I came, it was fine, how to eat and chat for a day, it was so noisy.

Especially the spearhead of the quarrel, she is still the spearhead.

Fei'er's azure eyes looked at Xu Siling, a little helpless, and asked what to do.

Xu Siling slowly shook her head in response, signaling her not to worry.

Seeing the people on both sides arguing, Xu Siling fell into deep thought.

Now for Xu Siling, it is also a major choice.

According to the trend of history, he should have supported Phil to go south to find Pope Clement VI first.

In any case, first get the status of the Holy See Holy Daughter, and then the Pope has other instructions for Fei'er, that is another matter.

Thirty years or so from history, the Holy See was about to move back to Rome again, although not long after moving back to Rome, it fell into a schism of the Holy See.

But at least the clergy will not become an appendage of the royal power, as is the case now.

The dominance of the church is still very large, and in the past thirty years, as long as he and Fei'er operate it properly, Fei'er can master and control too many things.

After the Holy See moved back to Rome, without the influence of the Pope, Phil would become the most faithful symbol in the Kingdom of France.

But then again.

The course of history is subject to change.

Including the occurrence of this incident, as well as the quarrel between the people on both sides of the banquet.

This is something that has not happened in history.

Without him, Phil would have died of illness, the town of Raya would have fallen into a dead city, and so would Tamubao.

Pope Clement VI would also die of the Black Death a few years later, and after Philip VI's first wife Jeanne died of illness, he would marry his daughter-in-law Blanche.

The Hundred Years' War between England and France ensued, and France was defeated

The historical trend is important, but Xu Siling now finds that because of his appearance, many historical trends have changed.

Philip did not die of illness, the Pope and the king's wife Jeanne would not have died of illness with the potion, and Philip VI would not have forced his daughter-in-law to marry.

The town of Raya did not become a dead city.

That. Will the Prisoner of Avignon really only last until 1378?

Could it be that because of his appearance, in the Anglo-French War, France had the upper hand, the kingdom did not fall into panic, and the Holy See would not be able to move back to Rome under the control of the powerful French crown and completely become a vassal of the French crown?

It's all possible.

Because he, Phil and the Holy See are not all the way after all, they still have to live in France, and they have to support Philip VI.

The French nobility comes first, and the Holy See saints come last, and this priority should be clearly recognized.

Aside from the identity of the saint, Phil was originally a French nobleman, and she should support the French royal power.

Especially now that he is here, maybe he can really work hard to make the Holy See a vassal of the royal power completely?

After all, he Xu Siling never thought that he would lose the war with England.

If France wants to win, then there will be much less turmoil in France in the future, and the trend of history will really change!

Fei'er could see that Xu Siling was thinking, but listening to the people on both sides arguing, her little head was about to explode, so she couldn't help but wave her hand to stop.

"Let's stop arguing, let me think about it. You don't have to make any decisions for me, I've grown up and have my own thoughts, how to choose to go south and north, I will think deeply. ”

Seeing this, the official was about to say something, but Fei'er glared back with his eyes.

"There's one thing I want to repeat, my uncle Johns, who didn't die by accident. He was plotting to usurp my territory and be killed by his son Abner, as many people have seen, including Father Endrite. ”

Fei'er touched her face, revealing a helpless expression.

"I'm tired, forgive me for not accompanying you. You can stay in Raya for as long as you want, and I'll arrange for someone to take care of you. ”

After speaking, Fei'er gave Xu Siling a look, got up and left the main seat.

Xu Siling also got up and followed, leaving the officials and clergy looking at each other.

When the Lord is gone, there is no need for them to quarrel, and then it is important to eat.

Fei'er and Xu Siling came to the bookstore.

As soon as Fei'er sat down, she sighed and asked anxiously, "What should I do now?" Shouldn't we focus on getting the status of a saint, we should go south first. ”

Xu Siling didn't sit down, but habitually came to the window to lean, he rubbed his chin and glanced at Fei'er.

"What do you think?"

"According to our plan, we should go south first, although this refutes the king's face, but it should not have much impact, even if the king asks, I can use the excuse of saving the people of the kingdom as a perfunctory, and the king will not complain about me anything."

"Philip VI was a cautious man."

Fei'er raised her eyebrows, her small body hugged her shoulders: "It's really strange, I haven't seen the king, what kind of person he is, I don't know, how do you know him so well." ”

"Ahem, I felt it from some of his past events."

"You pay so much attention to others, when do you pay attention to the people around you?" Fei'er was slightly surprised, and then said, "If you go north. I'm afraid that the Pope will not be happy, but it will affect our plans. ”

Affected by the current social environment, Fei'er felt that if she wanted to take the status of a saint of the Holy See, she had to rely on the Holy See.

She's right, after all, she can't see where future history will go.

Xu Siling was different, and after knowing Fei'er's thoughts, he nodded knowingly.

"Fei'er, do you believe me?"

Fei'er rolled her eyes, and then asked strangely, "Why do you want to go north by asking this?" ”

Xu Siling nodded, he wanted to contact Philip VI first, as well as his son John II, and his grandson Charles V more than Pope Clement VI.

Philip VI is 54 years old this year, and even if he had not been tormented by the Black Death, he would not have lived long.

Xu Siling was not optimistic about Philip VI, but he was optimistic about the father and son of John II and Charles V.

As a father, John II has a good character, and history praises his character, and he is also called 'Good Man John', although his ability to govern is not outstanding, but also look at whose mess he has inherited.

As for the question of what Philip VI left after his death, how can he return to heaven?

And then there was the son of John II, Charles V.

He's a clever kid.

Who is bigger than the mess lost by Philip VI or the mess lost by John II, or the mess of grandpa and father.

Undoubtedly father's.

But in the face of various difficulties, it was not easy for Charles V to turn the tide of the first phase of the Hundred Years' War between England and France and revive France.

Charles V did not reform France too much and could not overestimate his ability to govern.

But what stands out about him is that in the face of the loss of territory and the uprising of the people, it is not easy for him to rely on limited resources, to suppress everything, and to reverse the tide of the war.

As for the rest of the story?

Xu Siling felt that it was not for him to consider.

He didn't like Philip VI, but if he had to help, he would prefer to help Philip VI's descendants, John and Charlie.

Taking advantage of the opportunity now, he still wants to go north to contact these two future kings.

Although Charles V is now only 10 years old.

"Let's write to the Pope first, don't let the clergy of the Holy See send it, we will personally arrange for someone to send it."

"Write something."

"Tell him, reassure him."

Fei'er was surprised: "That's it? ”

"He is the Pope, you are a saint, you must talk and communicate with God, why do you speak so clearly."

Fei'er showed a strange expression, and she felt like an anomaly for a moment.

"Just write like that? Can the Pope understand what I mean? ”

He can understand that you and he are both people who serve God, and this sentence of yours is telling him that he will not help Philip VI toss the Holy See at will. With your words, he should be able to feel a lot more at ease, and when we come back from the north, we will go south to find him. ”

"It's really fake, this sentence can make him feel at ease." Fei'er didn't believe it a little, but out of brainless trust in Xu Siling, she had no reason to support it, and began to take out the envelope and write: "Then you let our own people send it, don't the clergy send it by the way, is there any purpose." ”

"It's to tell the Pope that you are a person with the ability to make independent judgments and will not be at the mercy of others."

"Xu, you always say that I have more eyes, but in fact, I feel that you are no less than me."

Xu Siling's brown eyes showed helplessness, it's not that I have more eyes, but that you have fewer eyes.

But Fan Fei'er's city skills have not fallen so fiercely, and her thinking in this regard will not be too bad.

"And then it's over?"

"This letter is sent out, and then we are ready to go north."

Fei'er thought for a while and asked, "You said, who will I take with me to Paris this time?" ”

Xu Siling must be going north with her, Fei'er will not be stupid enough to ask this question, but she is asking if she wants to take An Li with her.

"It depends on what you think, but there is no need to bring too many people with you on this trip north."

"How many soldiers do you bring?"

Xu Siling blinked: "If you don't bring it, it's not going to war." ”

"Then should I bring it. If I don't bring it, it doesn't look like I'm shameless. ”

"It's true that you're a nobleman, but you're also a devout saint, and you can't just be superficial."

Fei'er rolled her eyes again: "Then I'll take An Li with me, at least she has gone north a few times, and she is familiar with the road." ”

"Who else to bring?"

"With you and An Li here, what accidents can happen, bring a few more servants."

"Then I'll go back and prepare, and I'll leave early tomorrow morning."

Phil understood and began to prepare for the work before departure.

As for her decision to go north or south, should she tell the officials about these people?

The answer is to be too lazy to take care of it, and to prove it directly.

Xu Siling returned to the manor and began to arrange preparations before the trip.

This trip involves riding two horses, so it's easy to alternate.

The two children, Luo Shui and Wally, knew that Xu Siling was going north, and their eager expressions were not hidden.

It's a pity that Xu Siling didn't want to take people with him on this trip, and asked them to stay in the manor.

Ella was very considerate to prepare clothes and protective gear for Xu Siling.

Farina, on the other hand, stuffed many healing medicines she had made into her saluting backpack and told Xu Siling about the various effects of the potions.

said that he was preparing for the trip, but in fact, there was nothing for Xu Siling to worry about.

With Ella here, everything was in place. (End of chapter)
