All the contract girls want to marry me

His fingertips tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the seat, and he frowned slightly.

Sauron stood silently under the high platform without saying a word.

No one should be disturbed when they are meditating, especially His Majesty the Emperor.And he happened not to talk much, which was an important reason why he was favored in front of the emperor.

Himilun had a sullen face, hesitating between using Matthew and killing him.

Use Matthew to fight against the Holy See, good!But it’s not good for Matthew to take advantage of the situation and make it big.

Kill Matthew to avoid future troubles, okay!But it’s not good to suffer the consequences when things are revealed.

In the thousand-year history of the empire, there is no precedent for the current emperor to murder an elector.If he does it, he will be a sinner who undermines the order of the empire and may shake the foundation of the family.

There was no need for him to roll up his sleeves and deal with Matthew, at least not now.

After thinking about this, Himilun raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said softly: "Sir Sauron, do one thing for me."

"Excuse me."

"Write a good screenwriter and make up a story for me, a very touching story. Just say that Matthew is the child of the Lord of Holy Light in the world and the only legal candidate for the Pope."

Sauron's eyes lit up and he secretly exclaimed.

The story spread, and damned if the Vatican would accept Matthew.

This story would directly make Matthew an enemy of the Pope and the cardinals.

The pope and bishops would also be thinking, what was Matthew trying to do with being so arrogant before?

Now the reason is here, he doesn't like these people in the Holy See at all, he wants to be the Pope himself.

As long as this story spreads, not only the senior leaders of the Holy See will be angry, but the neutral party members will probably also be unhappy.

The Holy See is doing a good job, so why replace them?Who are you, Matthew? Do you have the ability to be the pope?

Can't be.

It is not advisable to treat a cardinal and archbishop of the Holy See so arrogantly without even having religious membership.

Sauron left quickly after accepting the appointment.

Shortly after he left, another minister came to the hall.

Facing his right minister, His Majesty the Emperor loudly announced.

"Mess Maiqing, select a few young girls with good cultivation potential, beautiful looks and good figures for me. I will select and then select the most beautiful girls. Remember, they must be virgins."

The right minister frowned. His Majesty's queen was his daughter. It was strange that he felt happy when the emperor asked him to choose his concubine.

But it was not convenient for him to object.

If he opposes it, wouldn't it be an excuse for his relatives to interfere in politics?

Mesmer accepted the errand unhappily, but planned to go against it.

The emperor looked at his father-in-law and instantly understood what the old man was thinking. He smiled and said: "Qing Mesmer, I have a very good relationship with Queen Messally. These girls are not prepared for me, but for Count Matthew." one's gift."

"I also plan to arrange a virtuous wife for him. I wonder if Lord Mesmer has any good suggestions?"

Mesmer was stunned for a few seconds and immediately understood what the emperor meant.Giving Matthew a beautiful woman to arrange a wife not only meant to soften Matthew's will, but also meant to show his goodwill.

As long as Matthew couldn't pose a threat to the throne, why should he care about Matthew.Winning over Matthew will also allow him to vote for the Himilon family in the emperor's election.

The Elector's vote carries considerable weight.

According to the voting rules of the empire, the king's vote counts as four votes, the duke's vote counts as three votes, the marquis' vote counts as two votes, and the earl can only count one vote.

The minimum number of votes for an elector is three votes.So Matthew's voting weight is equivalent to that of an ordinary duke.

Just for these three votes, giving Matthew a beautiful woman doesn't matter.

Although Emperor Himilon once thought of killing Matthew, it was just to keep the emperor's throne.

He and Matthew had no grievances. If Matthew could not threaten his throne, would it be foolish to kill loyal ministers for no reason?

Matthew, Matthew, what kind of beauty do you like? I'm a little worried.

The Prime Minister on the Right left, and the next one to come in was the Prime Minister on the Left.

The task given to him by the emperor was also very simple, to find beautiful women.

Then came the Home Secretary, the Foreign Secretary...

The emperor gave them a simple task, to be a beauty contestant.

The ministers subconsciously thought that His Majesty the Emperor wanted to choose a concubine. They never dreamed that the Emperor was choosing a beauty for Matthew.

......

In the northeast corner of the imperial capital, there is a towering spire-like religious building.

This is Hagia Sophia.

This church was built 500 years ago.

500 years ago was the highlight moment of the Holy See.They killed Rodrigo, defeated the Undead Lord, dispersed the shadow of death, and made significant contributions to world peace.

With this super achievement that benefits all mankind, they have successfully become the state religion of many countries such as the Clare Empire.

They set up their headquarters in the imperial capital and began to enjoy a simple life.

In the church, a sleepy old man wearing a triple crown was sitting in the main seat, looking at several cardinals and archbishops below. It was difficult for him to even open his eyelids.

Although the old man seemed likely to die at any time, the seven bishops below did not dare to express their anger.

The reason is simple. This old man participated in the battle against Rodrigo and was the captain of the stormtroopers.

Yes, this person is Eugene, the Holy See's God of War who made great military exploits 500 years ago.

Back then, he didn't even have super position, but he dared to rush into the pile of ribs with a shield and kill Rodrigo's death knight.

Who would dare to provoke such a person?

The average life span of ordinary people in this plane is between 80-120 years, and high-level experts can live 200-300 years.

The lifespan of a super powerful person is between 500-1000 years.

Most super powerful people do not want to participate in mortal struggles. They just want to become demigods/heroes and gain a life span of more than ten thousand years.

There are endless possibilities in life.

After death, there is only a handful of dirt.

Pope Eugene usually doesn't bother to pay attention to the trivial matters of the Holy See.

He had no interest in the papacy. It was only because of the fierce internal struggle in the Holy See seven years ago that he had to take charge of the overall situation.

Seven years ago, the Holy See was divided into two major factions: fundamentalists and progressives.

Fundamentalists believe that the scriptures are a gift from God, and the contents inside must not be modified. Changing a single word is a violation of the will of God, and is an act of treason and rebellion.

Progressives believe that although the Holy Scriptures are gifts from God, the gods do not know the development of the human world hundreds of years later, so the Holy See must make changes based on actual conditions.

Their core point of contention is whether clergy can marry.

Fundamentalists believe that families distract clergy from their devotion to serving the Lord of Light.

Progressives believe that having the Holy See select wives for clergy to start families can give clergy a greater sense of belonging and give them a better motivation to serve the Lord of Holy Light.

The two sides first started a debate. After finding that they could not convince the other party, they decided to eliminate the carrier of the other party's wrong ideas.

If the problem cannot be solved, then get rid of the people who created the problem.

It's a good idea.

Both parties did so in unison.

That battle severely damaged the vitality of the Holy See, and many high-level officials died in internal disputes.

The reclusive old guys in the Holy See had to stand up to stop this bloody internal fight.

The large number of deaths in the top management has given many outstanding young people like Diana the opportunity to rise to the top, but it has also allowed many people like Cauchon to join the top ranks.

It is no exaggeration to say that this term of cardinals is the worst that Pope Eugene has ever led.

There is only one main topic in the Pope's meeting today.

How to deal with miracles.

This issue sounds like a joke, but it's true.

The Holy See serves the Lord of Holy Light. It stands to reason that when encountering a miracle, it should be worshiped directly. However, Archbishop Cochon messed up the matter.

The root of all this is because the miracle is in Matthew’s territory.

Private property is sacrosanct.Even the Pope and the Emperor could not enter without Matthew's permission.

The seven cardinals discussed for a long time, but could not come up with a good solution.

Archbishop Cochon advocated sending people close to Matthew to wait for an opportunity to assassinate him.

The Archbishop of Verona suggested sending beautiful women to Matthew to corrupt his will.

But none of the proposals satisfied Eugene.

Looking at these useless things, Eugene finally opened his eyes and asked calmly: "Your suggestions are all very good, but one thing you didn't say is that Matthew wants Bishop Klein and wants to be restored to the church. , what should we do about this matter?"

The seven bishops almost said in unison: "Can't give it!"

Eugene was speechless.

He really wants to replace all seven of these wastes.

But he couldn't do that.

Removing all the cardinals at the same time is not called a major blood change, it is simply a big change.

Such a large-scale replacement will definitely cause a major earthquake within the Holy See.This definitely won't work.

Why don't these idiots have any brains?

If Matthew wants a teaching certificate, it’s not like he can’t give it to him.But what if there was something wrong with the person who issued Matthew’s canon?

Eugene said softly with helplessness: "Let Klein go to Matthew. In the meantime, reinstate him as a Christian."

The seven cardinals had no qualifications to refute in front of Eugene. Regardless of whether they were happy or not, they all chose to obey.

Eugene stood up slowly and made his final decision.

"Wait a moment and send Yurishia to Matthew in a few months. I can rest assured that this child will do things safely."

Upon hearing this name, several bishops changed their expressions, and they said in panic: "Your Holiness, Urrishia is a saint, sending her to Matthew, a lustful person, is simply..."

It's like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth.

The words were not spoken, but the meaning was obvious.

Eugene didn't speak, just snorted.

What is a saint?As long as they want it, the Holy See still lacks holy virgins who are willing to dedicate themselves?If Yurishia, the little fat sheep, could replace Matthew, the evil tiger, it would be a real gain.

Chapter 025 Thinking of going together

Matthew didn't know how many people in the imperial capital were plotting against him.

Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.He has many enemies, so that's not bad.

Without religious affiliation, he is an enemy to all. As long as he leaves the territory, others can legally kill him.

This is also the reason why he has been an earthbound spirit in Lundbell for three full years.

The land area of ​​the Earl of Lundebel is not large, almost [-] square kilometers.

And Matthew is a high-level magician who can fly.

In the past three years, he has inspected the territory many times, and he even knows the names of many villagers.

He may not be the best lord in managing the territory in the history of the empire, but he is certainly the most familiar with the territory.

He didn't go out to patrol the territory these days.

Shirley, Deanna and others completed the job in his stead.

He wasn't idle either.There is a steady stream of people coming to visit him, and appointments are even required.

Business group leaders from trading cities, mercenary leaders, and envoys from some small countries.
