Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

"What a terrible idea! People are gathering again, and we can't let anyone stop them now. What do we do?" the Pope roared at the Grand Inquisitor, his voice sharp and stern.

The Grand Inquisitor was at a loss, explaining慌张ly, "Your Holiness, please don't be anxious. Th-th-there must be a way. Let me think..."

Hope gritted his teeth in the crowd, his eyes full of excitement, and pushed the servant beside him: "Hurry up and give them a hand!"

The servant didn't say much upon hearing this and immediately挤ed through the crowd...

More and more people gathered behind Soljay, surrounding him in a circle. The later arrivals were clearly inspired and voluntarily joined in.

This circle of people kept rotating,簇拥ing Soljay and slowly moving towards the city gate.

Dazhuang, who had been busy in the crowd for a while, returned to Lai Gou'er's side again, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sought credit: "Brother Gou, how did I do?"

Lai Gou'er, who was originally focused on admiring this scene, was a little surprised to hear this and asked: "You took the lead?"

"Of course. I already had experience gathering people yesterday. Without my鼓动, who would dare to take the lead?"

Lai Gou'er praised: "Good, good, good! I'll记 you a great功. You'll go home earlier than Fobert in the future!"

Fobert, who had been staying by his side, almost shed tears, biting his lower lip tightly, looking at Dazhuang with resentment.

That狗比... he earns credit without me. But there's still a chance. He can work on the map! He can go home sooner in the future too!

The crowd slowly moved forward, and Lai Gou'er said emotionally: "It's hard to imagine that the priest has such an experience today... He is indeed a remarkable person!"

After saying that, he took a deep breath and arranged: "Dazhuang, immediately prepare a carriage for me, and also notify the others to wait for me at the city gate. As soon as the priest leaves the city, I will immediately take him back to Fika."

"Also, arrange for people to spread the news here to the outside world as much as possible. I'm worried that the Church will be unfavorable to the priest. The wider this matter spreads, the safer he will be."

Dazhuang hesitated: "But the priest has already offended the Church. In the future, our relationship in Fika..."

"That's not important. We'll adapt to the situation later. I'll immediately write to the imperial court to redeploy this matter... I think Da Jing and the Church will have a war sooner or later." Lai Gou'er said in a deep voice, "Also, after we leave Fika, the Church will definitely take corresponding actions. You send people to探听消息 and send it back to me as soon as possible."

At this moment, Hope窜ed out from the side, stood in front of Lai Gou'er, wiped his sweat with a handkerchief, and said in surprise: "Brother Lai, I finally found you. You won't blame me for not helping you before, right?"

Lai Gou'er smiled: "Brother Hope, you have helped me a lot. I can't thank you enough... But let's say goodbye here. I'm about to leave圣城."

Hope looked around and whispered: "You want to take the priest away?"

"Yes."

"Hmm... be careful. From what I know about the Church, this matter won't pass by糊里糊涂. On the surface, nothing will happen, but in private, they may send people to暗杀. You've heard of the Brotherhood, right? Maybe they'll arrange an assassination under the guise of the Brotherhood." Hope reminded.

Lai Gou'er拱手 formally and gave a salute: "Brother Hope, thank you very much. It's worth it to come to圣城 and meet someone like you."

Hope waved his hand and said with a smile: "Same, same. I think you东方人 are also good... Then our business..."

"You helped me, so I naturally want to回报... But you still have to wait for my news on this matter. I'll try my best to促成 it for you! What do you think?"

After all, trading with the country is not that easy.

Hope舔舔 his lips and said seriously: "Then I'll wait for your good news. I wish you a smooth journey!"

....

As the sun set, Soljay's figure slowly appeared at the city gate.

Even with the help of the crowd, his physical strength had reached its limit, but the encouragement from the surrounding crowd always kept him going.

Finally, the light斜射ing from the door洞 fell on his feet.

One step, two steps, three steps....

咚!

"Good!! Good~! !"

The statue landed, and the surrounding people immediately cheered!

The city gate had become an ocean of欢声笑语...

A group of city 'rats' witnessed... no, they should be said to have created a miracle!

They withstood God's judgment!

After a burst of cheers, everyone's eyes returned to Soljay.

At this moment, he was lying on the ground,奄奄一息, but his eyes were still亮晶晶.

His lips蠕动ed, as if he was saying thank you.

The surrounding people paid their respects with注视.

Just as everyone was moved, Lai Gou'er越众而出,抱起 him without容分说, and directly jumped onto the already prepared carriage.

Then he drove wildly and never looked back, leaving behind a group of错愕 people...

……

In the carriage, Father Soljay stared失神 at the roof.

Lai Gou'er was in a great mood and asked: "Priest, don't try to die in the future. No one can save you if you do it again."

Soljay smiled and said weakly: "I won't. I've caused you trouble... I'm afraid I won't be able to help you anymore when I return to Fika this time."

"Yes! You can! You survived God's judgment in public. No one dares to touch you. You are still the Archbishop of Fika! However, since we have offended the Pope, you don't have to do the job of Archbishop step by step when you go back. Do it according to your own ideas!"

Soljay微微颔首: "I remembered a sentence that Lord Fang said to me. He said that the idol in my heart is dead, but the ideal has not been extinguished... I only understand now that what he said is all right."

"But when I return to Fika... can I really continue to do it?"

"Be bold and do it with confidence! You can even create a new religion." Lai Gou'er's eyes were沉着, "As long as what you do is the right thing and you stand with us, even if there is Church阻拦, the Da Jing fleet will always be behind you保驾护航!"

.....

In圣城, the Pope sat失魂落魄 on the viewing platform, along with a group of high-level Church officials who were如丧考妣.

The people who had left the city earlier had returned in twos and threes.

They didn't expect that Father Soljay would overcome the crisis in such a strange way.

The poor ghosts in the slums狠狠地 gave the Pope a slap in the face.

Facing the masses, the Pope had nothing to say...

After a long time, the Pope's阴晴不定 face finally定格ed in black, and he glared at the Grand Inquisitor beside him.

"Aren't you thinking of a way! Haven't you thought of it yet!"

The Grand Inquisitor哆哆嗦嗦 said: "I... I've thought of it, but Your Holiness doesn't need to worry. I have a计 that will surely make Soljay死无全尸!"

"Speak!"

"You forgot that Fika is a place where the Brotherhood is肆虐. When he returns to Fika, we only need to send a旨 to Fika to大力嘉奖 him, and at the same time stop investigating the Brotherhood! In this way, it won't be long before his reputation will be greatly enhanced, and when it reaches the ears of the Brotherhood, we can directly借刀杀人!"

The Pope's eyes lit up: "Good计谋! But what about the affairs in the city? The Church's prestige has been greatly affected this time."

The Grand Inquisitor沉思片刻: "There is also a way to do this. Doesn't he like to厮混 with the poor people? These poor people have always been unpopular in圣城. What we mainly consider is the impact on the normal residents in圣城... You said, who would be willing to go to the slums? Everyone hates it."

"I remember Soljay said that he had been to东方. Let's secretly say in the city... that he was煽动ed by a group of东方人 who have no faith and are malicious towards the Church."

"He刻意讨好ed the poor people, wanting to引发争斗 in the city, so that the attention of the people will be移... What do you think?"

The Pope長出一口氣: "Wonderful! It's still you!"
