Miss Wang Weina, my cousin can't do it either!

After exchanging pleasantries, Wayne glanced contentedly at Mostima who was not in deep thought, said goodbye and left the hotel.

Purpose achieved.

Next, let's call the "Anglican Sister Broca of St. John's Cathedral" and the Lateran Church.

Wayne may not know what the belief that supports Broca is, but as long as he knows that that thing is belief, it is enough.

As the most evil liar in the history of Victoria and Rutland destined to be recorded in the annals of history, he has a lot of ways to make the believers and the belief itself fight.

When the time is right, let her do the real thing.

It just so happens that both Wien and this era need a "Martin Luther".

Chapter 29 Excommunication

Lateran, Pope's Palace, 8:00 am.

Maintaining mystery is a necessary condition to guarantee the authority of the gods and the church. Therefore, the Pope does not preside over morning prayers on weekdays. As a symbol of the entire Lateran religion, he generally does not appear in front of believers unless there are major festivals.

Therefore, he, who is obviously the leader of the entire religious system, unexpectedly got a life like the most ordinary unbelievers at [-] o'clock in the morning, which was rendered as a sacred moment. He woke up slowly from the bed, and then Start eating breakfast.

However, before he raised the knife and fork to the bread and ham on the table, the silence in the restaurant was broken by a hasty knock on the door.The Pope frowned, inserted a fork into the sliced ​​bread, and while drawing sweet jam, he ordered to the silent waiter beside him:

"Go and have a look. If there is nothing important, report to the bishops."

The Pope himself is not an idler, although as a representative of theology, he does not need to be busy with everything in theology, but secular affairs are inseparable from him, meeting with leaders of various countries, making decisions for the development of the church, these things need him to complete, and Some small matters are naturally handed over to the cardinals under him to take care of them.

The waiter bowed, walked out of the restaurant quickly, and returned within a minute, bent down beside the Pope and whispered in his ear:

"It is the Archbishop of Urbino."

"Why is it him again?" The Pope clicked his tongue in a muffled voice, "Forget it, tell him to come in."

The waiter beckoned to the gate, and the guard at the gate, armed with guns and wearing a black robe with his face covered by a black mask, turned sideways and let Urbino in.

The new archbishop who had just been promoted and was dressed in red walked quickly to the Pope's side, with a look of fear on his face. As soon as he saw the Pope, he immediately began to talk very fast:

"Your Majesty, I didn't intend to interrupt your time to enjoy the Holy Communion, but this matter is really only a wise decision like you!"

"There are too many things that require me to make decisions. Do I have to do everything? Then why did I establish the Cardinals? What is the purpose of appointing you as a Cardinal?"

"Ah this..."

As if he hadn't expected the Pope's response, Urbino showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, but he still gritted his teeth and replied:

"You are right, but because of the importance of this matter, two-thirds of the bishops in the Cardinals have agreed to ask you for advice directly. This matter is related to Rutland's work in Victoria...no , in the future development of Terra.”

The bread that the Pope had inserted into his mouth suddenly stopped. He put down the bread slowly, turned around, and looked at Urbino with an interested expression:

"what happened?"

The ridicule on that face seemed to be saying to Urbino: Come on, let me hear what new job you gave me.

Could it threaten the future of the Lateran religion on the entire land of Terra?The Pope's first reaction to such words must be disbelief. How huge is the Lateran religion?Believers are spread all over Terra, and Iberia, which is directly under its control, has hundreds of thousands of believers. The number of pilgrims in the holy city can reach tens of millions every year. That insignificant religion can be regarded as ants, and any other beliefs are not worth mentioning in front of the Lateran religion!

They have a monopoly position in terms of belief, spirit, and theological system. Who can threaten their development?Anglican in Victoria?

Hehe, that's just the blood of a generation. When Wei Na dies, the Anglican sect, which has lost its royal power, will be annexed by Lateran immediately.Not worth mentioning at all.

He looked at the fearful Urbino, and he was ready to tell him what is the gold content of an international university!

Urbino bowed his head obediently and reported:

"This is an urgent communication from Master Mostima, the full command of the special operations stationed in Victoria."

Urbino's words made the Pope frowned slightly.

Who Mostima is, he knows best.As the pope's white glove, she didn't know how many things the pope had handled in the shadows that were inconvenient to be revealed in the light. It was hard to imagine that something would surprise her, and she even had to send back an emergency communication.

and.....

The pope looked at the calendar on the wall.

Today is March 1092, 3 in the Terran calendar.There are only five days left before March 10, the original communication day.If the matter is not particularly urgent, with Mostima's lazy and meticulous character in small matters, even if it is delayed, he will delay communicating with Lateran until the 3th. In the last communication on February 15th, Mostima Stimah's report was still "everything is normal".

In this short period of one month, what happened?

"Read!"

The Pope officially put down his knife and fork, and sat upright.

Urbino took a breath and said slowly:

"Regarding the report of defection from St. John's Cathedral in Victoria, according to the judgment of myself: Mostima, the degree of danger: extremely high, the reasons are as follows, [-]: Sister Broca of St. John's Cathedral is extremely dangerous in thinking, and has raised the possibility of shaking Lateran The foundational statement of the Catholic Church’s rule—[Justification by Faith]...."

Hearing this word, the Pope trembled slightly, and his face officially became gloomy.

The next second, he raised his hand, stepped back towards the waiters and maids in the restaurant, let the black-robed guards lock the door, looked at Urbino again, and said word by word:

"Now, read the report to me in detail."

.........

"How is it, Archbishop of Urbino?"

In the main hall of the Pope's Palace, Cardinal Andreus was the first to greet Urbino who came out of the dining room. The cardinals who knew about this, except those who were still stationed in Ursas and Letania The two of them, and the one who was carrying out the special task assigned by the Pope, had already assembled in the hall.

But seeing that Urbino frowned and his face was gloomy, everyone knew that the seriousness of this matter must not be revealed lightly.

Seeing Urbino's silence, Andreus had no choice but to urge again:

"What does His Majesty the Pope say? What are the arrangements?"

Urbino raised his head, held his breath, took out a rolled scroll from the large red robe, sighed, and slowly unfolded it.

I saw only four large characters written by the Pope on this heavy paper made of precious parchment.

【Expulsion】.

Chapter 30 With so many virtues, you still say you are not an insider?

【Expulsion】

The cardinals who were noisy just now fell silent instantly, as if the words on the parchment in front of them were magic spells with the power of silence.

Excommunication, all the people present are not fledgling little pastors anymore, they clearly know how powerful these words are.

Membership is equivalent to the identity card of a believer. It is the basis for determining whether a person has a place in the world of the Lateran Catholic Church. Only with membership can you be called a believer and be able to enter monasteries and churches If you practice in all Lateran-related buildings without religious membership, you are a black household. Not only can you not enter the church to pray and worship, you can’t even call yourself "I am a believer in the Catholic Church!" unless you I want to be traced by a religious notary.

For ordinary people, religious membership is dispensable to them. They do not believe in religion, and there are only a handful of connections with churches in their lives. But for religious people, religious membership is their lifeblood. , Even a homeless person in the market will have a sense of belonging to the church because of his membership.

This is Lateran's long-standing method of winning people's hearts independent of the countries of Terra.

And why expulsion?

Compared with an ordinary behavior, this is more like a humiliation, which symbolizes that the excommunicated person is no longer worthy of the favor of the gods and the blessing of the church. Pardoned after death, should go to hell with lava, brimstone, and satan.

This is basically tantamount to pronouncing a death sentence for a believer, and it is, in the true sense, a weapon that allows a person to "socially die".

The cardinals looked at each other without saying a word.

They have thought about what action His Holiness the Pope will take, maybe sending someone to Victoria to assassinate Sister Broca, maybe contacting that good friend of Lateran, His Highness Wayne, and asking him to find a way to get the [Defiler] 】Broca was kidnapped to Lateran for trial, and even thought about launching a religious cold war, using the huge influence of the Lateran Catholic Church to completely extinguish the flames that had just ignited in Anglicanism.

But I never thought that His Majesty the Pope would directly order the expulsion of all Anglican clergy, as well as Anglican believers, general believers, and superficial believers!

You must know that whether it is in Victoria or other places on the earth, the core believers of the Lateran religion are actually not too many. Most of the so-called tens of millions of believers are actually shallow believers who sometimes believe and sometimes do not believe. A pan-believer who practices many faiths.Those who go to pray under the Anglican sect in Victoria, they are not necessarily really in the arms of false religion and false gods, it is probably just because the Anglican church will provide bread at breakfast and hold a party at lunch, The "beneficial" reason for gathering believers together to watch outdoor movies after dinner, or simply because praying in the Anglican Church will be less red tape and less troublesome.

Are they loyal to Anglicanism?

Not necessarily, maybe as long as the Lateran Catholic Church lowers its stance a little bit and offers some benefits, they will immediately turn their backs and return to the Catholic Church, which is truly world-famous.

But once they are expelled from the church.....

But it really offended this group of shallow believers to death!

At that time, these shallow believers will be fools, and they also know that while giving them sweet dates full of benefits, they are holding a big stick to make them die socially, and bear the labels of infidelity and moral corruption. Which one should one believe in?

This is making enemies for yourself!

Urbino sighed: "Everyone, I know what you are thinking. The Pope is wise and mighty, so naturally he has considered what you said."

"but!"

He changed the subject and became stricter.

"At this moment, we only have to be prepared to cut off the wrists of a strong man! You are also the ones who have read the words of [the blasphemer] Broca, and you naturally know how we will be treated if these words are spread on the earth. Strike! It must be done immediately, immediately, and never again!"

"Expelling them is only the first step. This step is a threat. For general believers and shallow believers whose beliefs are not firm, we will give a one-month buffer time. During this period, most of them are not willing to take this risk. General believers and shallow believers will voluntarily withdraw from this [religious jihad]. We do not require them to believe in us, but we must not allow them to believe in Anglicanism! Ordinary people always prefer one thing more than one thing less, as long as they give orders, they cannot Fight us to death."

"In the next step, we must increase our support for Wayne, even resorting to extraordinary measures such as the eleventh tax and the Holy See's armed forces, to put Wayne on the throne of Victoria, and completely relegate Anglicanism and Broca to the garbage of history. Heap. Everyone, the Pope knows very well that it is extremely difficult to prevent the spread of an idea. Since Broca’s dangerous idea has appeared, it is doomed to be difficult to eradicate, but we must do our best to keep this idea to a minimum. Just like we blocked Kazdel's religion, we blocked it in Victoria!"

"Bishops, you may think that this method is too radical and tough, but I want to convey the most severe words of the Pope here!"

Urbino gritted his teeth and said:

"Heretics are worse than heresy!"

Cardinal Ruhr frowned, raised his hand and said:

"I understand what Your Majesty means, but what if, I mean what if, Broca is not our enemy?"

He raised a report in his hand and said:

"According to the records of the Holy See, Broca did not betray the Lateran religion. He is still a nun of the Catholic Church, and St. John's Cathedral is also the territory of the Catholic Church. According to the news from our informant in Victoria, Broca He is devout, steadfast, charitable, friendly, honest and reliable, loyal, humble and courteous, thrifty, and tenacious. He is a pastor with excellent moral character! Could this be a trick of the Victorians? Did we mess ourselves up?"

Before he could finish his sentence, the cardinals beside him all looked at him with pity.

Someone couldn't help reminding him:

"Rule, can you repeat what you just said? What kind of person is Broca?"

Ruhr blinked, not knowing what he meant, and repeated boldly:

"She's a Faith, Hope, Charity, Justice, Fortitude, Temperance, Prudence... Ahh... .Uh......"

Like a fishbone stuck in his throat, his voice was interrupted abnormally, and he gradually understood everything.

He read the report in his hand again, and then put it into his teaching robe with a blushing face.

The seven virtues, the proper seven virtues are listed in the report.

What kind of information about a person is absolutely untrustworthy?

One, a person is absolutely bad and has no merit whatsoever.

Second, a person is absolutely good, without any faults.

No one is perfect, and there is no absolute villain. As long as you live mediocrely in this world, you will always have shortcomings. Ruhr has no doubts about the authenticity of the information in hand, because it is absolutely false!

The simplest way of argument is, if a person possesses the seven virtues at the same time, what church would she join?What kind of redemption do you yearn for?

She only needs to simply believe in God, and she is enough to ascend to heaven by virtue of her virtues. For such a person, indulgences cannot be sold!

"Go back and send someone to check your informant carefully. He has probably been bought by Victoria's intelligence department."

Urbino said lightly.

"Everyone, don't you know what the priests in your church look like? Even if there are good ones, how can there be absolute perfection? With so many virtues at the same time, you still say she is not a ghost?"

"Send me the Pope's decree to expel [the blasphemer] Broca from the church! Kill chickens to make an example to monkeys!"

Chapter 31 The Man Who Completed It

Wei Na was very curious. For example, nearly half a month had passed since Indra's report, and Wei En, who had kept saying, "Call me about this matter", seemed dumb and did nothing.

On weekdays, they should eat and drink, and even found time to send people to hire several cooks from the Yan Kingdom from the embassy street to come back, saying that they want to teach the four major cuisines of Dayan.

Wei Na still doesn't know Wei En, her brother must be bragging again, the four major cuisines of Dayan?Wayne has never been to Dayan since he was born. Where can he find the four major cuisines of Dayan that even the chef of Yan Kingdom doesn't know?

I just hope that those Yan Kingdom chefs who seem to be deeply inspired can wake up early. Wei Na still has a good impression of them. After all, after they entered the palace and took over the cooking of breakfast, lunch and dinner, Wei Na His living standard has improved by more than a little bit, even his face has become a little rounder, and he has gained a little weight.

The figure has not changed much, where did the flesh grow?

The people in the palace complained about this, as if they felt that the majestic Victorian royal family had a special liking for the cuisine of Yan Kingdom and turned a blind eye to their own food, which was rude, but Wei Na said: This matter is mine Ideas have nothing to do with Wayne, if you have any opinions, please come and talk to me.

Just kidding, which courageous nobleman dares to give advice to Wei Na? This master is not a mortal. He has lost face of the guardian of the unicorn in public and seized the throne in front of all the nobles. In a week, Ernest and other aristocrats were recruited. The scheming and courageous macho...female figures, even when the parliament was in place, they didn't have the guts to argue with Wei Na on such a trivial matter. Singing a naysayer, not to mention the absence of parliament now?

The parliament was dissolved and another date was chosen. The nobles who had agreed to it at the beginning have basically come to their senses now. Wei Na never said how long the date was to be chosen.

Now Victoria’s so-called parliament exists in name only, the military power is in the hands of Ernest, the political power is in the hands of Wei Na, and secretly these two powers are in the hands of Wayne, the centralization of power has been completed, just wait for Wayne’s order Claiming to be the Lord Protector (but won't be).

To sum up, the current Lentinium is harmonious, and all the undercurrents are surging under the water surface, and no one dares to stir up waves.
