Since the Accounting: A Chronicle of the Roman Khanate

Chapter 158
On the terrace on the second floor of the Empress Temple, Theodora asked the maid to bring a chair, sat by the wall, and watched the others practice.

Her gaze was so oppressive that even an old cunning man like Wang Da Lama couldn't bear it.He hesitated for a while, but persuaded: "Princess, why don't you go back. I'll watch the old man here, and there won't be any accidents."

"I'm going to take a break today to see them, okay?" Theodora asked back.

Da Lama Wang didn't know what to say, so he gave Guo Kang a look of "I did my best".

A few days ago, Theodora heard gossip from others, saying that Guo Kang organized a heretical sect that worshiped the Holy Light and machines.He hooked up a group of priests and got together every day to make some inexplicable things.

There are also rumors that he plans to be the leader behind the scenes and let little Rangna be the fairy.These two often come and go, I don't know what they are doing.Theodora went to ask Zhu Wenkui specifically, but Zhu Wenkui was busy working on the new workshop Guo Kang gave him during this time, so he didn't care about other things at all, so he didn't know anything about it.

Theodora went to ask Lama Wang again, and the answer she got was that the monastery was a very formal organization approved by the Patriarch, and it conducted serious theological and philosophical research.

The upper echelons of the church represented by Lama Wang, and even the old scholars of the Theological Seminary in Constantinople, did not think this was out of the ordinary. On the contrary, many scholars were very interested in the research results they showed.Therefore, he told Theodora not to worry about Guo Kang engaging in heresy.

However, what Theodora was concerned about was not about heresy, so Da Lama Wang's answer did not satisfy her.

She sent her maid to visit the monastery to see what they were up to.But the maid came back and told her that the monastery clearly stated that it was a place to study philosophy and that women were not allowed to enter.

It is not uncommon for Greek philosophers to have this kind of thinking, but some people said before that they have seen little Jeanne go there-this is obviously contradictory, and there must be ghosts in it.

If it was normal, she would not be so suspicious.But not long ago, she had just made an agreement with Meltem and Jeanna, and within a few days, they started making trouble.This made Theodora, who had always been calm, a little unbearable, so he made his own decision and rushed over in person, ready to grab a ready-made one.

Although there was nothing unusual at the time, it was also confirmed that this sect was indeed related to little Jeanna.

Among other things, the theological explanation Guo Kang told the monks was beyond his own imagination.Theodora played with him since she was a child, and she still doesn't know what level he is.

As for the others... Wang Da Lama's theological level is obviously not good either.As for Huanhuan, it is estimated that Jeanna's pigs understand theology better than him.Although it can't speak, at least it doesn't make heresy every day...

Therefore, although Guo Kang was temporarily let go, but later, when he heard that he was going to meet with the big and small Rangna again to practice some kind of practice, Theodora rushed over again to see if their practice was serious or not.

When we got there, no one stopped us this time.Although Da Lama Wang and Tuo Huan were also there, Theodora suspected that they were also helping Guo Kang, and she was also uneasy about them and insisted on not leaving.

In this regard, Guo Kang couldn't tell.

"Don't you look at how old she is." He said helplessly, "Aren't you putting a burden on everyone by being so suspicious?"

"How old? Anyone younger than her is married." Theodora obviously didn't believe it: "Why can't the French do it?"

"She's actually not purely French." Tuo Huan glanced at Da Rangna who was watching the fun beside her: "My sister seems to suspect her?"

"I've said it all, it's none of my business." Da Rangna hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Don't drag me into it."

"Hey, it's not troublesome enough." Tuo Huan broke the jar and said, "I said brother Guo Kang, you should marry my sister quickly. During this time, she has been following you like a nympho every day. If this continues, our days will be over!"

Theodora rarely refuted Tuo Huan's words, but remained silent.

"If you really like any woman, just tell me, and I'll help you connect later. You get married first, so it won't delay your finding a lover, right?" Tuo Huan continued: "What do the French say? A family is a family , love is love, right?"

"..."

Guo Kang didn't know what to say for a while, but Theodora was obviously more and more dissatisfied with Huanhuan.

"Just make trouble." She said sternly, "I see if you can live in a stable family later, don't turn around and make everyone laugh."

"What am I worried about? I'm helping An to give me an idea." Tuo Huan tried to explain: "I just have a family. Love? What is that? Is it interesting to have a war?"

"Besides, I'm also a Taiji in Rome. I want to fall in love, so do I have to please women and appease their relationship?" He said loudly: "If you like any woman, just don't grab it. Talk , Talk about a fart."

"What are you thinking all over your head?" Theodora frowned and said, "Is this what a good ruler would say?"

"We started in Rome, didn't we just rob Samone's women." Tuo Huan actually began to quote scriptures: "This is what the Roman rulers should do!"

Theodora was momentarily rendered speechless by him.

"Okay, everyone." Da Lama Wang hurriedly came to smooth things over: "I can't help you, old man, with your private affairs. But today is indeed a business, and I really didn't lie to you, the princess. You see."

He pointed to a pile of documents on the table: "Princess Jeanna said that she was inspired by the saint. I checked the information and think this is a good opportunity. We can take this opportunity to promote it."

"This should be good for our business in Egypt, our relations with France and even the Ming Dynasty. This is really a serious matter..."

"Which saint is it?" Seeing that he had said that, Theodora stopped losing her temper and asked seriously.

"Saint Catherine of Alexandria." Da Lama Wang said, "Old man, I have made up for this knowledge in the past few days. This fairy is still very important. Not only the Roman Church values ​​her, but our church also gives her She made a 'Great Martyr'."

Theodora didn't know how to answer his words.After all, the patriarch doesn't know famous saints. This kind of thing... well, this kind of thing is quite in line with the Roman tradition.

"It is said that she was martyred in Alexandria, Egypt at the beginning of the fourth century." Lama Wang introduced: "In the sixth century, Emperor Justinian built a special monastery for her in the Sinai Peninsula. After that, People have been going there for pilgrimage.”

"I don't know if her story is reliable, but the origin here is deep." He said, "I think we can use this to publicize it."
