Your Mightiness

The crown prince is not the kind of character who would embarrass others, and in the end he could only send August away with regret.

August first returned to Hampton Court Palace, met Father Joe, and changed to a more low-key black carriage with no obvious identification marks. After running around the suburbs of London, he went to this time. A place where secret societies meet.

"==Does it need to be so troublesome?" Auguste couldn't quite understand Father Joe's act of adding drama to himself at any time.

Father Qiao, who has recently become obsessed with stage plays and really loves acting, said that this time is not an act, nor is it a drill.He said to August in an indisputable tone: "Don't you think about your current identity, can it be the same as in the past?"

"Identity? Past?"

"You are now the Regent of France, thank you. The Pope gave you gifts at Christmas! Do you know what he gave me back then? A 'boat ticket' for exile! I still dare not return it Home!"

"Your father and him are political enemies." August still thought that Father Joe was just the illegitimate son of a cardinal.

Father Joe choked.He himself almost forgot about this identity setting, there is no way, almost everyone around him knows who he is, even the black prince once asked him to "talk about life and ideals" in private, and now it is really only Ao Gust doesn't know anymore.

"Don't talk about this, talk about you, are you early? Now girls of the right age all over the world want to marry you, and teenagers all over the world want to imitate you. Ask what books you are reading recently, do you have any latest hobbies, and what are you participating in?" The club... To put it simply, you are popular, my friend." Father Qiao added an exaggerated effect 100% this time, and he even put on a particularly exaggerated pose, lest others would not know that he was singing.

Westerners always have rich body language when they speak, but Father Joe is richer than rich.

"No way, it's all from childhood." Father Qiao felt that all of this was the fault of the church. The priest had to preach, and there were no loudspeakers or special echo walls made of meteorites in the middle ages. In a church hall, if you want all believers to know what you are talking about, you must have rich body language.

Father Qiao became the archbishop at the age of eight, one can imagine how strong his training and instincts are in this area.

But August felt that all these were just excuses. Father Joe was the kind of performer who loved being chased by lights. He was commonly known as a man crazy, and the more people looked at him, the more excited he became.

It's just that due to his status, Father Qiao couldn't be an opera or stage actor, so he could only live like a play, and play like life.

Father Joe: "..." He couldn't refute, because August guessed right.

After the bickering of these two long-lost friends, they finally got rid of the long, idle road and arrived at the meeting place of this secret society, another simple manor where the owner was invisible, and plaster sculptures of cherubs abounded.

Obviously, this manor belongs to August, but the name of the owner who can be traced can only be Julie.

This manor has a low-key appearance that is very different from the luxurious interior. Of course, this is not Julie's aesthetics, and it is the result of protests from most members.They didn't want to be too ostentatious. In the end, Julie could only obey the majority and gave up the resplendent appearance.

Since August delayed too many things in the palace, when they made a detour, it was very close to the time for the party to start.The place dedicated to parking carriages in the manor was already full of all kinds of carriages, but the main entrance was deserted.Now the number of members of the secret society has grown a bit, not too many, but it will not make the secret society as deserted as before.It's just that after there are more members, everyone is even more reluctant to go in directly through the main entrance like before.

The member's logo has also evolved from a simple rainbow badge to a gray hooded robe, as well as matching armbands, badges and even mink fur sleeves for keeping warm in winter.Every time we gather, looking around, it looks like a cult ritual.

Of course, after entering the house and taking off the gray hood, everyone will return to their bright clothes.

August really didn't particularly like this idea, and always felt that such a cover-up seemed to insinuate what a shameful thing they were doing.Although the social status of homosexuality in modern times is still not particularly high, it does not seem to be a crime like in the Middle Ages.

"We are indeed committing a crime!" Even if Father Qiao opened up again, it was still because of the influence of religion that he felt that God would not like homosexuality. After being caught, it would be considered light to lock him up.With the recent rampage of witch hunts, it is not uncommon to be burned to death for homosexuality, and it is relatively rare in England and France because of the insistence of Auguste and Raphael.The Pope specially gave August a gift, just to test whether August would be as difficult as his uncle Richard II.

"Who said that?" August cast a glance at Father Joe, "Who stipulated that homosexuality is wrong?"

"Of course it's God." Father Joe didn't believe that August could be ignorant of such a thing.

"Do you have proof?" August asked again.

"Does the Bible count?" Father Qiao pointed to the Bible and the cross he carried with him.

August shook his head: "Of course not. The Bible was also written by humans. Humans have their own subjective opinions. Humans cannot represent God, and it is difficult to understand God thoroughly. Unless someone God, you tell me that God himself said to you that he does not allow homosexuality, so I will believe you. But you must have the ability to prove to me that the person who speaks is indeed God, not some other devil pretending to be."

Although August is an atheist, he certainly wouldn't say so directly. He learned a lot of theology from Raphael.I also learned the ultimate trick of Tai Chi with some institutions of the modern dynasty-you have to prove that you are you first.

Father Qiao's IQ was completely exhausted, and he was also thinking by the way. What August said seemed to have some truth.

Back to secret societies.Today is not only the day when August, the president, will show up, but also a meeting for some new members who joined the club this year.In fact, very few people knew that the president would show up today, most of the members thought it was just an ordinary meeting for new members.August will also be among the new members, and he will see the situation before deciding on the next direction.

"Even if they don't know that you are the president, just seeing you appearing among the new members is enough to shock their jaws down." Father Qiao said.

In terms of status, in the whole of England + France, only Richard II can surpass August.

As soon as the carriage stopped, August saw that the guy codenamed Marquis among the oldest members was also late. He was always late, as if he was pursuing some superstar effect that everyone was looking forward to.Facing the ostentatious golden carriage, it was impossible to pretend not to see it.The other party was getting out of the car. These years, the Marquis was one of the few members who insisted on going the right way. On this point, he had the same point of view as August. What happened to homosexuality?Have you eaten your rice?If you have the ability, come and bite me to death!

After seeing August's carriage, the Marquis waited for a while because he recognized Father Joe's exclusive coachman.

After making sure that August had put on the gray hood, Father Qiao happily opened the car door, walked down and greeted with a smile: "Philip, I didn't expect you to be waiting for a certain count so early today. Your Excellency?"

Yes, the Marquis who has a strange relationship with the Earl of Wessex is Raphael's good friend Philip, the Marquess of Worcester.August had known Philip for a long time, but Philip did not know August, and August had always concealed it very well.

"Joe, do you have a guest?" Philip glanced sensitively into the carriage. He didn't see August's face, but saw the golden curly hair. How could there be such a beautiful and pure-haired nobleman in London? That's a lot.

"I introduce a new member to the club," Father Joe replied fluently. "You will know him soon, and I hope you will not be surprised when the time comes."

Philip nodded: "Coincidentally, I did the same this time, introducing someone who is sure to surprise you."

"Is it someone who was not in London when you were not in London?" Father Joe had some impressions of this new member introduced by Philip. He forgot whether the other party was an English nobleman or a French nobleman. Forget it. No matter, anyway, their members have become more and more international over the years.

"Yes, we're back together."

However, August's heart skipped a beat. He was away from London on business before, and he came back recently. He is also a nobleman who has a relationship with Marquis Philip... Besides him, he is also a member of his French holiday group, right?Who else could surprise Father Joe?Henry?If he dares to be sorry to Mary, August will definitely make him regret being born in this world!

The author has something to say: Henry: exm? ? ?What does it have to do with me?
