Crossing the Continent in the Eighteenth Century

() "Enough, loyalty and love are almost the same thing, it's useless to just talk about it, you have to do it. Now I tell you to shut up!"

Turning my head, my brother Alexander held his forehead and stopped looking at me. The two guards stared at the ceiling. Damn, they don't agree with the cosmic truth that love is made?Debate with them on this serious subject when I have time...

He went out and said to Constance, "Go and bring me the leading priest."

The latter really did as I said, grabbed the priest by the collar and dragged him over... Brother, did you let Morris be possessed?

"What? What's your expression? I didn't do it right?" Constance was very innocent.

I bet it was intentional.

It's not difficult to interrogate the priest. He was frightened lightly, and he learned that it was the assistant dean who told him to take care of the group of nobles.

The whole incident now has a general ins and outs. The nobleman who was annoyed by Frederick in a jealousy happened to know that the literary girls wrote a story about me, so he told his companions about his desire for revenge. His companion had the idea of ​​killing Frederick by checking his ID.Then the nobleman found a dignitary in the church, the vice-president of the holy house of the Holy Spirit.In retrospect, Frederick should have annoyed the other party at the old Duke's concert, that is to say, during the period when I was working for my cousin, the people from the church made this happen.

Alexander and I came out of the room and stood by the door of the main building, and the guards inside closed the door for us.

Alexander laughed and said: "I also said how could the church have such courage. If they just wanted to swear that they would regain their authority as a stepping stone, they would never find trouble with the nobles on our side. But that book, for them Speaking of it, it is not an ordinary book."

"Just because you keep knocking me down, is this a book with the meaning of rebellion, exposing the ambition to overthrow the Theofano family's rule?" I disdainfully stuck the dagger in the corridor, damn it, I was being used.

Alexander pulled out the dagger, touched the gap on the wall, and said in a deep voice: "But my brother, you also said that the Satan in that book, the Satan who is constantly being defeated is you! You are Seth!" The Orfano family! The majesty of the Theofano family cannot be challenged!"

His tone was cold and undeniable. Alexander was clearly intent on killing.

I was startled suddenly, and frowned: "So people from the church brought people here to find people without passing through us, right? I won't talk about the seizure of the police, then they will do something to the nobles." What about the feet! Is this right? Not only did we not condemn the church afterwards, but we also praised them? Praising them for doing the right thing? You know, that book is just a thing for them to ask for credit! They don’t care Does the person who wrote the book mean to rebel!"

"In terms of emotion and reason, although the church is a little bit overstepped, but they do this, as a proper dog, it is not a big mistake." Alexander said flatly, and I interrupted him rudely, "Why do you I don’t understand, the church is using us as a weapon! Today we acquiesced in their behavior, what will other people think? Even our own members of Theofano’s family dared to move, the church is going to raise its head again!!! "

"I know!" Alexander said coldly.

"Then you..." This time it was my turn to be interrupted.

"You should go and see how you are arranged in that book! Slander, satire, slander, ridicule to the fullest! Everyone has to pay the price!"

The distorted Alexander is very abnormal. I was almost frightened by such anger. After being stunned, I seemed to find a reason. I think that Frederick may have made a lot of effort in that book, you know , I have experienced that guy's mouth.I, a harmless royal family, can surpass Emperor Sui Yang and stand shoulder to shoulder with Qin Shihuang in this guy. One can imagine how much sewage was splashed in the book.

"calm down!"

"That group of noble ladies who are eating and waiting to die insult you like this! How can you tell me to calm down!"

"I was at fault for the whole thing. Besides, they, those noble ladies are just a group of naive little girls in my eyes. I don't care about the pranks they played."

"So they can insult you?! Do they still have our royal family in their eyes!"

"Then you can kill them all?"

"You are my brother! The only brother in this life!!! [Damn], if you offend the uncle, I will kill both sides!"

I was dizzy, even the old scumbag's swearing came out... Hearing that Alexander was so angry that even Jesus' mother scolded him, I almost remembered that he was a native of this world.He doesn't have a mature soul like I grew up with.The sense of honor instilled in him by the Theofano family, he is a one-stop accepting it in its entirety.So in my opinion, it was my fault first, and I can't blame others, but in his eyes, the matter has risen to the level of personal honor and even family honor and disgrace.It doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong. In the past, there was a saying in the world that a scholar should not be insulted, and the honor of nobles should not be insulted, especially the royal family.

"Thank you." I smiled faintly, "But you also said before that Ceofano is us, and we are also Ceofano. So these words are fine, do you want to betray everyone! "

"Okay!" After Alexander finished speaking, he punched the wall with his fist, and he muttered in a low voice, "Sometimes it's tiring to live."

Then the two of us discussed the countermeasures.

Nobles, it's fine to scare them.After all, the matter of arranging the royal family can be big or small.The same is true of plotting and deliberate rebellion.So, the nobles, let them realize that they are in danger, those with high titles, those who are close to us, we must make them panic, let them mistakenly think that they are very likely to lose favor and be jealous, titles Those who are low and insignificant, let them be afraid, afraid of being pulled out to beheaded and hanged, and they will have nightmares when they think of this stuff in the future.

As for the church, those self-assertive guys not only had to be replaced, but they had to be beaten!

This is the principle!

But we lack an excuse to attack!

Thinking of Frederick, I suddenly had a good idea: "Let's act separately. You go and tell the cheap old man what happened here, and arrest the few nobles who caused this kind of thing. I rushed to the church. Before the troublemaker is killed, help me."

Alexander took a few steps, and I suddenly stopped him: "What are you going to do with those noble ladies?"

"Send them home, of course!" Alexander sneered.

Thinking of the slap on the face of the literary girl, I was speechless for a while, Alexander has not given up the idea of ​​teaching them a lesson!At this juncture, it's no wonder their father didn't beat them to death if they sent these troublemakers back home!I denied it: "Putting them together, um, house arrest, except that you can't go in and out freely, you can let people see them, but you can't be alone!"

Alexander turned his head and stood under the steps, staring at me: "The reason."

"Love and fear, the two coexist, if one has to choose, the latter is more appropriate. But fear, it will only make people not betray. Love, it will make people continue to be loyal. But, sometimes, Fear can easily turn into hatred, and the latter will give people the motivation to betray. Also, don't forget..." I took a few steps closer to Alexander, and glanced at Constance who was preparing the horse for us with lewd eyes, "Maybe Maybe there will be so many of them in public who will become the future wives of our group of partners."

"Okay, it's up to you! However, on the church side, remember to leave the final disposition to our father." Alexander instructed.

I found the leader sent by the church to fight against the autumn wind this time, and asked the whereabouts of the arrested prisoners. Frederick and Hans were indeed taken to the underground cage in the courtyard of the Holy Spirit Purification Court in the outer city wall area.That place is several hours away from the university area, and after interrogating the two offenders, I should be able to get there before Frederick suffers too much physical pain.

Out of prudence, Alexander departed with five bodyguards, and I told Constans to go with Alexander and bring at least one centurion of guards.After making these arrangements, I gave the order to the chief guard who came with me this time to put those noble ladies under house arrest.The latter is an old man from our Theofano family. Although he had a bitter face, he still nodded firmly.

Taking five guards with me, I started to rush to the holy house of the church.

Passing by the only road that must be passed by the Holy Spirit Purification Institute, I asked a few vendors on the side of the road about the strange things in the past.The people who escorted Frederick passed by here long before the time of two meals.

During the two meals, I swallowed my saliva and wiped it. When did the people in the church work so fast... It took about two hours!Could it be that they flew from the inner city wall area to the outer city wall area in one swoop? !No matter, now is not the time to study this, two hours, that is, a live pig can be turned into a pork bun, let alone a big living person!

"You stay here, you go to the back door, hide well, and pay attention to the people coming and going in and out of the courtyard!"

"Reload the flintlock pistol! Come rush in with me later!"

I gritted my teeth, and pulled out two flintlock pistols from the weapon belt beside the saddle. Several guards looked at me, and then at the high wall and church of the Sanctuary of the Holy Spirit in the distance, and immediately started to load the flintlock pistols. gunpowder.

Seeing that everyone was ready, I yelled: "Constance will bring people to arrive soon, but now we have to rush in to save one person, that is a German nobleman! It is about the great strategy of the empire, forgive me I can’t go into details, but please remember, any priest standing in front of us is our enemy!!!”
