Two hundred and eighty-fourth chapter [things are big]
Chapter 284 [Things are getting serious]
"Then..." Ramsay seemed a little afraid to say, and he looked at Maximus.
Maximus smiled faintly: "I'll tell you what happens next... Then, His Majesty Michus insisted on remaining silent on the hospital bed. Although those guys who put him under house arrest were bold, they didn't dare to really confront him.
How about him? After all, if anyone dares to harm him, then the news will spread, and the group that did such a move will immediately be discredited and be despised by millions of people. No one dares to do that kind of thing.
Then, something happened, and the records of this event were erased from all documents. It was only passed down orally by the leaders of each faction when they were dying."
"Tell me, what happened next?"
"Later..." Maximus smiled: "Later, it is said that at the last moment of His Majesty Michus's death, His Majesty Aragon finally got the news. He took his twelve Saint Laurent Knights and broke into
Entering the temple! His Majesty Aragon was the most powerful man under the stars at that time, and the twelve Saint Laurent Knights under his command were the top paladins, and he himself was the emperor. Of course, no one in the temple could stop him
Get him. Besides, he is the emperor of the empire. Who dares to openly use force to stop him from meeting the pope?
So, it is said that at the last moment before Michus died, His Majesty Aragon broke in. Moreover, it was said that because of the obstruction of those guys, His Majesty Aragon used force in desperation and killed two people on the spot.
A clergyman with a high status in the temple. He finally came to the hospital bed and saw Michus. Before Michus died, he said a few words to His Majesty Aragon, and then His Majesty Aragon held Michus's hand.
Hand. In the end, Michus died with a smile on his face."
After saying this, Maximus couldn't help but sigh.
Du Wei sighed: "Those words that Michus said to Aragorn before his death must be crucial. What did he say?"
"This..." Maximus said with a look of helplessness: "No one really knows about this. This can be said to be a historical secret for thousands of years. But the most important thing is not just these few sentences,
But... It was because of this incident that His Majesty Aragon felt extremely angry when he saw his old friend being so humiliated by factions within the church when he was dying, so he made an impulsive move in anger.
, this matter is also secret, no one outside knows about it.”
"What?" Du Wei's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
Maximus whispered: "Everyone knows that in order to get strong help from the church and to show his sincerity in cooperating with the church, His Majesty Aragon, as the commander-in-chief at the time, publicly accepted the baptism of Christianity and gave him
The person who presided over the baptism was Michus himself! After Aragorn accepted the series, he also became a believer. And the twelve powerful Knights of Saint Laurent under his command also joined the church in order to follow their commander, announcing that
Believe in the goddess of light and become a believer."
"That's right... I know this." Du Wei nodded: "After all, Aragorn..."
"It is said..." Maximus said with a wry smile on his face: "Sorry, we seem to have said a lot of 'supposedly' today. But that's the fact. We don't have any written records, it's purely oral transmission from generation to generation. Ahem...
...It is said that at that time, Michus held Aragon's hand and passed away with a smile. His Majesty Aragon was so angry that he ignored the objections of all the clergy present and insisted on carrying the body of His Majesty Michus off the bed in person.
Carrying the body of His Majesty Michus, he arrived at the hall of the temple!
The situation was very tense at that time. Because of the intrusion of Aragon and his men, the temple felt like a formidable enemy. Almost all the masters in the temple surrounded His Majesty Aragon and the twelve paladins in the hall. But facing
At that time, several leaders of the Mosaic and Yeni sects, as well as the elders of the Montenegrin sect, as well as the heads of the Tribunal and the Holy Knights, etc., were not afraid of His Majesty the Emperor.
He took out the badge, threw it to the ground hard, and stepped on it twice. Then he sneered three times and said, "Such a godly religion and such a temple are embarrassing to be around! From today on, Aragorn will no longer
He is a believer in the temple, and my old friend, I don’t think he is willing to stay in this dirty place! Then he left in disgrace. The twelve paladins under his command also followed His Majesty the Emperor.
He took off the Holy Knight badge, threw it to the ground in front of everyone, and left proudly. The words His Majesty Aragorn left made everyone present feel embarrassed and red-faced, and some even became angry with embarrassment. However, because people
Everyone knows that Aragorn was truly the most powerful man on the continent at that time, so even though His Majesty’s actions put the temple in disgrace, no one present dared to step out to stop or challenge him.”
Du Wei sighed and couldn't help but think about the time when the founding emperor, who was also a time-traveling comrade like him, actually had that kind of pride. In the temple, facing hundreds of temple masters surrounding him, he made bold words to humiliate the enemy.
And he took away the body of his friend in public, so high-spirited, and no one from the enemy dared to stop him... How heroic is this?!
"However... I have to regret to say that it was only after this incident that the differences between the temple and the royal family finally officially surfaced! Because of this incident, it became the beginning of the break between the royal family and the temple! After that, the Yeni sect and the Moshan
Both the Sarpai and Sarpai hated Aragorn for ruining their big event in the end, and their relationship with the royal family gradually became sour." Maximus finally sighed.
When Du Wei heard this, he felt infinite emotion in his heart. He could not have imagined that what happened back then would lead to such a complicated story. Of course, he had long known about the differences and conflicts between Aragorn and the temple. However, from this story, Aragorn
He and Michus, the first pope of the temple, seemed to be still close friends, but it was only after Michus died that he officially fell out with the temple.
I think of what Hussein said. In a secret room inside the temple, the knight's badge left by Aragorn is still preserved, and it has been cursed with vicious spells for thousands of years...
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a thud in the cabin. Ramsay and Maximus in the room suddenly changed their expressions and looked at Duwei.
Du Wei also frowned and shouted: "Who!"
He got up and walked inside, opening the door of the cabin. Inside was Du Wei's own bedroom. When Du Wei opened the door and took a look, he saw the mythical beast lying on the ground, as if he had fallen off the table.
Same as down.
Looking at this mythical beast, although the penguin's face was expressionless, there seemed to be faint excitement flashing in its eyes.
Du Wei's heart moved, he turned to face Ramsay and Maximus outside and pretended to smile lightly: "Oh, don't worry, you see, this is my pet, it accidentally fell off the table.
"
Maximus and Ramsay took a look and saw that it was a strange-looking bird. They were relieved. After all, what they were talking about was a scandal and secret in the church. If outsiders listened to it, it would be very bad.
It turned out to be Du Wei's pet, just a bird. Although it looked weird, there were a lot of strange looking monsters in this world. In short, they were just beasts, so I didn't take it to heart.
At this point in the story, the story is actually not over yet. However, when Du Wei saw the strange look in QQ's eyes, he vaguely guessed something about this hateful bird. He probably knew the inside story!
Thinking of this, he walked back into the hall and smiled at the two bishops: "Both of you, thank you very much for telling me these stories today. You can tell me these things, which shows that you trust me, Du Wei. Uh...
…Now. After what happened today, I think you two must be tired. Let’s wait for you two to have a good rest. How about we continue to talk in detail in the evening?”
After saying these words, Du Wei noticed that Ramsay immediately looked dissatisfied. He couldn't help but a trace of effort flashed in his eyes and blurted out: "Grand Duke Tulip, you..."
Duwei smiled: "Mr. Bishop Ramsay, you don't have to say it. I, Duwei, am not a fool. I know. Since you are willing to tell me such a secret thing, you must be interested in asking for my help, right?"
?”
Ramsay's old face turned red, and he was about to tell something, but Maximus smiled enigmatically and whispered: "Okay, my old friend. The Duke is young and wise, but he is much smarter than us old guys.
.A lot of things don’t need to be said out loud, and everyone understands them in their hearts.”
After speaking, Maximus bowed to Duwei and smiled calmly: "Your Majesty, since you already understand it, it's good. I also know that you need to think carefully before giving me an answer for such an important matter.
Let’s stop the story here… How about we talk about it in detail during dinner?”
Du Wei laughed, and then made a farewell gesture: "It's just what I wanted! Please! You two, I have prepared a good cabin for you two. Let's have a good talk in the evening."
Ramsay seemed a little worried, but Maximus looked calm and walked out of the room slowly first.
After they went out, Du Wei immediately winked at the guards outside the door and asked them to guard the door and the surrounding area. He returned to the room, closed the door, and came to the front of the sacred beast.
QQ had returned to the appearance of that elegant bird, sitting on a chair and watching Du Wei come in. This always "cunning" bird seemed a little nervous.
"Okay, my respected master of the mythical beast." Du Wei sat opposite it: "This time, you 'remembered' something to tell me? Is your amnesia temporarily cured again?"
Different from the past, QQ did not tease Du Wei this time, and its voice was not as cunning and improper as before. The bird's voice seemed solemn and emotional.
"Du Wei, don't you want to know what Michus said to Aragorn before he died? I know this sentence."
Du Wei's eyes immediately widened: "What did you say?"
QQ sighed: "He said, 'Old friend, I'm sorry. I died too early. I'm afraid I won't be able to help you with the rest of the work. It's a pity... if I die like this, the temple will definitely become a cancer on the mainland in the future.
.'Well, that's all it is, not a single word is missing."
Du Wei couldn't help but feel horrified after hearing this!!
The meaning of this sentence is really too... too shocking!!
Before Michus died, he said these words to Aragorn, vaguely, as if...
Could it be said that Michus originally had the same heart as Aragorn! He became the pope just to help Aragorn weaken the influence of the Church of Light on the continent after the empire was unified? To ensure that religion would not harm the rule of the empire?
"I know what you are thinking and what you are guessing." QQ looked at Du Wei's expression: "Besides, I can also tell you that your guess is correct. Matthews was not a true believer in the first place.
He has always been Aragon's closest comrade-in-arms. When Aragon raised his army, he tried his best to help Aragon, including using the power of the church! It's a pity that Michus died too early. If he continued
How many more ten years... no, just five more years of life. With him as the pope, maybe Aragorn will be able to free up his hands. The two of them can cooperate inside and outside to compress the power of the temple step by step, and finally solve this conflict.
The greatest potential harm to the empire. Unfortunately... he died too early, too early."
Du Wei's expression changed instantly, and then he suddenly jumped up: "You... you know all this... why?"
QQ sighed: "Du Wei, you clearly guessed it, why didn't you dare to say it?"
Then, the bird's eyes suddenly shot out a glimmer of light, and there seemed to be a faint awe-inspiring aura on such a bird!
"It's very simple, because I am Matthews!"
thump!
Duwei fell from his chair.
He struggled for a while, then managed to get up, staring at the penguin in front of him, this ridiculously fat bird.
"You...you are Michus? The founder of the Temple of Light! The spokesperson of the Goddess of Light in the world? The greatest figure in the history of the Temple of Light, His Majesty the first Pope on Roland Continent??"
"Yes, I am!"
QQ said in a serious tone.
Du Wei groaned, fell down, and lay sprawled on the ground.
