Chapter 571 Three Powers to Conquer the World

While running for Eden, Verdo collected more information.

After many inquiries, Verdo had a better understanding of this young priest. Eden was an orphan who was abandoned to the monastery. He was gifted at a young age. It was said that he could see people's hearts. The vice-president of the monastery would This matter was reported to the church, hoping that the church would verify it to see if it was a miracle.

However, in the world of true religion, there are so many "miracles" reported every year that it is impossible for the church to verify them all. Under normal circumstances, the church will only verify miracles that are witnessed by more than 30 people, and give priority to verifying miracles that are witnessed by more than a hundred people. There are no traces, so even if the vice president sent many letters, all of them fell into the dark.

"The priest is said to be often hated by others and cynical. Fortunately, the deputy dean took care of him and was able to be promoted to a priest. He is one of the youngest priests, but he is only a priest."

said a priest who knew something about Eden.

Verdo thought of something and asked quickly:

"Which parish is he subject to?"

"Let me think about it, it seems to be the parish where Patriarch Casas is located. Are you looking for him?"

"I want to go with him to see the queen."

Verdo nodded.

Soon, Verdo met Patriarch Casas, who was impressed by Eden.

"He was truly a dedicated servant of God."

Patriarch Casas learned of Verdo's intention and said slowly:

"But...his heretical thoughts...are really unsightly."

"what happened?"

Verdo asked quickly.

Patriarch Casas took a deep breath and spoke eloquently,
"Under the arrangement of God, ten years ago, I learned about Eden, a talented monk, from others. At that time, his heretical thoughts had already begun to take shape.

In a theological paper, he actually said that the world is a confrontation between the Holy Spirit and evil spirits. This really committed the fallacy of dualism, and this was rejected by the archangel Solamius. "

When Verdo heard this, he was surprised. He originally thought that Eden's heretical thoughts were limited to the savior, but he did not expect that it reached the point of dualism.

But this did not make him give up the idea of ​​rescuing Iden. For this dwarf who spent most of his life on preaching, any heretical thoughts were secondary.

"No matter what, he will lose his life just because of a slap in the face. I can't sit back and watch this. Can you just sit and watch?"

Verdo persuaded, hoping that Patriarch Casas could go with him to find the queen.

Patriarch Casas thought for a moment, sighed, and said slowly:
"Well, after all, he is also a priest in my diocese. As long as he can renounce his heresy, I will do my best for him."

Hearing the Patriarch's reply, Verdo breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Patriarch Casas was a well-known good old man, not a stubborn old scholar.

"He is too arrogant sometimes, and it would be a good thing to teach him a lesson..."

Patriarch Casas said:
"There are many people who sympathize with him. Optimistically, he only needs to confess his mistakes to the emperor and bow his head."

...................................................

In Deschanel's palace.

Emperor Constantine VI sat on his purple chair and listened to his son, co-emperor Philip, report on the situation of the nobles.It was already late at night, and citizens of all walks of life in the capital had gone to sleep. Only the palace was still brightly lit.

"You calm them down and organize a few racing competitions for them."

Constantine VI said casually.

Philip was a little uneasy. He had only been exposed to political affairs for a few years and was not proficient in everything.

"Father, is this really possible? Just a few racing games are enough to send them away? I heard that some nobles are already conspiring against you in the name of the Grand Council."

Facing his worried son, Constantine sneered:
“My dear son, you do not understand aristocrats, especially Deschanel’s aristocrats.

They seem to be of noble blood and suave, but in fact, they are all a group of soft persimmons. Much of their prestige is due to Deschanel's power.

But we are the emperor, we are the power, and all their majesty comes from us. Without us, without the emperor, they would all be a bunch of losers. "

After finishing speaking, Constantine felt that what he said was a bit too overwhelming, so he added:
"Of course, I don't deny that there are many outstanding people among them, and their family was founded by a group of outstanding ancestors."

After hearing his father's words, Phillip's worries eased a lot.

So, he asked softly:
"Father, after a few decades, how can I control power like you? Do I have to rely on God's gift?"

Constantine VI smiled and said:

"Given by God? Don't be ridiculous, Philip. God is great, and precisely because He is great, He doesn't care about the powers on earth.

He does not give us power, and Deschanel's power is not a gift from God.

In this world, only three powers are needed to conquer the world: levying taxes, threatening with the sword, and forcing belief.Likewise, only three forces are needed to shape great power..."

Philip looked longingly. He looked straight at his father, waiting for the answer from the latter's lips.

Just then, the queen came in.

"In the name of the Lord, you have worked late enough and it's time to rest."

The queen persuaded softly.

As a wife and mother, she hopes that her husband and son can get enough rest every day so that they can live a long life.

Constantine VI looked at the queen, and then said to his son:

“Forget it, let’s leave it until next time, there’s no rush.

Listen to your mother, she is right, it is time for us to rest and wait until tomorrow to work on our empire. "

Philip nodded as ordered. He stood up, hugged his mother, and kissed her face. Then he slowly walked out of the room and returned to his palace.

The queen looked at her husband lovingly. She walked over slowly, then lowered her voice and whispered:

"My dear Majesty, your daughter Althea does not want to marry in a foreign country."
