glorious fall

It was a bright early summer, and the rye harvest was bad because the snow turned into ice. Therefore, under the measures promulgated by the Holy See, the lay people in the northern dioceses received food supplies from the southern provinces. Now, the north already has A scene of recovery.Of course, because the grain harvest in the south is not satisfactory, there will be a rebellion incident in Pidelius Province.

As the archbishop of Steinta Province, Chester, of course, pays more attention to the lay believers in his jurisdiction and actively seeks benefits for them. For example, in this incident, he believes that only Steinta Province is completely The North asked the Holy See for more post-disaster food supplies. Tangglass was unwilling to make a fuss among the ordinary believers in the North. He gave people a harsh and unsympathetic image. All the stored grain over the years and this year's grain have been shipped to the north.Afterwards, Chester successfully moved more than half of the grain into Steinta Province, but half of the grain was secretly transported into his own private warehouse for future use, which made Tang Glass What annoyed him was that he threatened the lay people in Steinta Province that the Holy See had worked hard to collect food. Although he did not fully exert his due prestige, he still gave comfort to the northern people.

The larks chirped and jumped up and down the trees, and other birds also chirped non-stop, shuttling and jumping among the forests. It was a lively scene to hear and see in people's ears.

The courtyard door was pushed open with a "squeak", followed by a young man's voice: "My lord, it's here."

Chester's hand holding the scepter trembled almost imperceptibly, and then he gave a nasal "hmm" and stepped in. The man in front bowed slightly and said, "Lord Baiting has lived here for a few days, He didn't show any bad emotions. Of course, what I mean is that Mr. Baiting was like in his own mansion. He didn't feel that he had changed a place, so he didn't feel unhappy, which I admire very much. I once heard that he was practicing penance in St. Florian's Abbey, and now I finally believe it."

Chester "hoho" laughed, "You're still too young, Andrew, if you're like Gerry, after going through a few more things, you won't be as fussy as the antelopes on the plateau in Bourson Province, especially behind you When I followed the lion, Baiting also had a young age, who didn't have any ambitions when he was young, although he wanted to meet God through penance - we all shook our heads and sighed, advising him, 'Hey, Baiting !When you die, you are in the arms of God.' So he came back to the earth, of course, he is still so stupid and irredeemable, maybe he is the most religious of us all, but if the brain is not very clever If you don’t, it’s really sad—you don’t know how to enjoy yourself in heaven.”

While talking, he had already walked to the door. This time, there was no need for a man to open the door. Chester had already pushed the door and walked in.

This is a remodeled room, it may be arranged by a storage room or other rooms, so the bright and warm sunlight cannot shine into this room that still has a little musty smell, but Chester can still see clearly through the dim light The scene inside.

Baiting sat upright beside the desk, with a thick book spread out in front of him, Chester subconsciously thought of Baiting's love for the scriptures, now the desk must be clean and free of any dust, he did not let Baiting He was bound by the court, so he successfully guessed that the other party was still reading endless scriptures these days.

"Hi, Baiting, old friend!" He walked over and patted the man who was absorbed in reading, "I'm glad you can miss me, accept my invitation, come back with my subordinates, and come to me as a guest, I will definitely treat you well." Your host, my old friend!"

The Archbishop of Begel Province, who came back to his senses, was still a little dazed. He might have been stuck in the book for too long and couldn't wake up in time. "Chester? I don't think I'm here to be a guest."

Chester deliberately put on an unhappy expression, "Then what are you doing here, friend, passing by me? Where are you going? Hey, old buddy, it's not good for you to hurt my expectations like this."

Baiting opened his mouth to accuse him, but after thinking for a while, he still said tactfully: "It's not that I am willing to trouble you, Chester, but that your subordinates tied me up and brought me back—"

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Chester, who said loudly: "Look, this is so funny! Bye, old man, are you accusing me? You mean I have someone bring you by force , in the same way as tying wild boars? Don't be funny, today is not a day for fun, but I am 12 very happy and welcome for your arrival."

Baiting sighed and stopped talking. Chester still pretended to be misunderstood and sat down angrily opposite him. Baiting tried to put all his energy into the book, but Chester's eyes were too "eager" , so that he had to think about the other party's intentions.

"Chester," he closed the book and folded his elbows beside the book, "since you are willing to call me 'old friend', then, old friend, you took so much trouble to bring me away without disturbing His Majesty. What is the purpose of coming to your province, or is your idea revived again?"

A smug smile slowly appeared on Chester's face. He put the scepter on the desk between the two of them. The turquoise on the scepter was a bit dim due to the light, but Bai Ting could see his smile clearly. Clearly, he opened his mouth and said a word very slowly——

"No, Bai Ting, my old friend, you should ask me, has my heart for that seat ever stopped? Of course, the answer is, no."

"Of course, you should know my intentions by now, that is, in your hands, there is a standing army of nearly 2 people. And the Beger Province, who will belong to it?"

……

The rebels in Monta Province who "responsed" to the rebels in Piedrius Province were still rampant, but after Kuroti ordered a vigorous suppression and resolution, there were not many people who were still opposing the Holy See, and Kuroti finally Take a break to rest for a while, and study the exquisite wooden box you received.

The palm-sized wooden box is extremely delicate, a bit like a treasure box for ladies to store jewelry, but this box is a whole generation smaller, with clear black wood grain on the top, copper skin on the four corners, and inlaid on the top. He took a topaz stone, a strong little lock, and the key was in an envelope.

The letter he saw before had only a few short sentences, to the effect that there was very important news about him in the box, and he had to open it when no one knew about it, otherwise his future might be affected .

Out of a curious and apprehensive attitude, he still waited until now. The box was not big, and there were several rolls of parchment inside, which looked very new. He picked up one of them and unfolded it. It looked familiar, but he continued to read it, but the content inside made him more and more frightened. In the end, he couldn't suppress his anger, his hands trembled, and he subconsciously jumped to the signature at the end of the article. He couldn't help but believe it.

"Sandra, you actually, actually want to do this to me!"

He couldn't believe it, and immediately picked up the second letter, which also made him startled, because it was exactly the handwriting of His Majesty Tanglas, especially his unique handwriting with a kind of coldness. Hard feeling, it is very easy for Kuroti to identify, not to mention his signature below, it seems that these are private letters between the two, who stole them, and they just happened to be delivered to Kuroti , if it wasn't premeditated, then Sandra and Tangglass' intentions were exposed, because in each letter, the two were planning how to get rid of Kuloti, and there were many plans listed. Other archbishops and even cardinal colleges are briefly mentioned.It made Kuroti break out in a cold sweat, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder if someone had already been eliminated by Tangglass and Sandra when he was busy suppressing the rebels.

After he slumped on the recliner for a long time, he called out in a weak voice as if sick: "Come here." The attendant who was waiting outside came in immediately.

"Go and find out, what happened in the main city recently, or how are the archbishops and cardinals?"

The attendant nodded yes, Kuloti felt that the dizziness in his head had eased, so he waved his hand and weakly asked the attendant to step back.

Sandra, if all this is true, then don't blame me...

The cornflowers outside the side door of Fengser Palace formed a sea of ​​flowers, and the blue ocean was particularly fond of Sandra. He always sat on the steps in front of the cornflowers in a daze, or read here with a book fascinated.

Anyway, as long as Tanglas wanted to find someone, he would always be found here.

Sandra had quite a problem with Tanglas asking people to pull out all the previous rosemary, violet, calendula, etc., but since the replanted cornflowers bloomed, he kept silent, even Express his joy in behavior.

The hand was taken away, and without exception, Tangglass sighed helplessly, "The morning mist descends and soaks the steps, it's very cold, sitting like this will make my stomach hurt."

Sandra said "Oh", stood up, and patted the dust off her body, "Are you done with the academic affairs? I think it's time for a late lunch."

Tang Glass looked at his obviously rounder cheeks and healthy blush when he first came to the main city, and smiled: "What a self-conscious child, let's go, sorry to make you hungry, my lord archbishop, follow me It’s really hard, you shouldn’t even order three meals, maybe next time you should learn to eat first, instead of waiting for me to starve.”

Sandra was noncommittal, and said, "I was waiting for you in the same way a few years ago, and now it's just a review."

Seeing his solemn expression, Tang Glass suddenly stretched out his hand, pressed his head, and kissed him lightly.

"Thank you, Sandra."
