Chapter 1001
While Loren was still amazed by Little Prince Weber’s reply, Charlotte, who finally plucked up the courage after a long consideration, also arrived accompanied by Lena Desalion wizard guild.
To be more precise, it was in Ai Yin's room.
Faced with the female count and Lena who came to visit suddenly, the little wizard was almost as nervous as them. The three people with their mouths pressed tightly and each thoughtful were facing each other. They were always silent when they talked about everything. , Until the hot medicine in the test tube becomes cold.
"Ayin..."
After a long time, even when Lena couldn't help standing up to break the silence, Charlotte, gritted her teeth, finally lifted the head , Her chest undulated violently.
"Hmm."
The little wizard, who is also in a complicated mood, looked at her nervously.
"I...I thought about it for a long time, and I also thought about it a lot—in fact, originally, I had the courage to come to see you. I was afraid, nervous, hesitant, but couldn't help but breathe. , I don’t know how many emotions linger in my mind!"
Pushing the corners of her mouth tightly, the paused female count looked at her with scorching eyes: "But there is one thing I’m sure about, that’s when I The moment I walked into this door, I...Charlotte Torino...was not here to apologize to you."
"This may be abrupt, maybe there is a place where I believe oneself infallible and impulsive, But I did nothing wrong-no matter what he thinks, I love him, so I will do my best to get him!"
When I heard the word "get", Lena and Ai Yin blushed almost at the same time, and after a glance at each other, she silently looked towards Charlotte, who was not timid, even as it should be by rights.
Byrne’s tradition is worthy of being the hometown of Knight...probably.
Lina couldn't help but think of it as she helped the frame.
"Yes, yes, I actually think so too."
Looking at the female count who had a dignified appearance, the little wizard who has not recovered from the tension Stuttering opened the mouth and said: "Charlotte, you are doing the right thing. There is nothing wrong with pursuing what you want."
"Especially to cheat... I mean Loren This kind of guy! You have to be more active and tougher!" After she finished speaking, she also shook her powder fist symbolically, squeezing an encouraging smile from the corner of her mouth.
Huh?
This kind of reply made them both stunned.
Although I don’t know who the little wizard is, Isaac has emphasized over and over again that "Ain is the kind of fool who will be happy for a long time when he is happy, and anger is a one minute fool"...
But when I really learned her attitude from Ai Yin, it was still not knowing what to do.
"Ayin, you misunderstood, we are not here to express our position to you today, we are..."
After hesitating for a moment, she glanced at Charlotte’s Lena and explained Tao; but when she saw the little wizard's pure and flawless, sapphire eyes, she hesitated again.
What are we going to do?
Of course, it was to soothe Ayin's mood before the wedding, and at the same time, it would not lead to confusion in Byrne's heart because the wedding could not be held.
But the little wizard very much agrees with Charlotte's decision and shows signs of injury.
This is by no means pretended... Lena Desalion is very clear. She is very sure that Ayin is not only not sad or sad at this time, but is even happy for Charlotte.
If she hadn't seen people's vision and wisdom in this way, she would have been able to live a maverick life in Imperial Capital for many years even if she owed a lot of debts.
Faced with the little wizard's gaze, Lena stopped talking.
"I know."
The sound of earnest but decisive words sounded extremely abrupt in the quiet laboratory.
"I know, Ayin." With raised brows, Charlotte stared at the flat-looking little wizard: "I understand your current mood and understand why you made it. This kind of decision."
Ayin was shocked when she heard this.
"We’ve been together for too long, we’ve seen it, and we’ve discussed it together too many times, enough to let me see your true colors...Of course, I didn’t see it completely, otherwise, There won’t be anything like today."
"Don’t deny it, because you know it too——Ayin, please don’t doubt that I did this because I feel guilty to you; in that way, I will treat you extremely Great disrespect."
Staring at those pure and flawless eyes, Charlotte said word by word: "And now... believe me, besides me, there is a second impossible in this world. People who know you so well, even you, even Loren can’t match."
"So don’t refuse my kindness. This is not a compensation for you, but a good deal we discuss carefully. The plan afterwards—as I promised Loren, I want him, but I don’t need him to love me."
A decisive and stern word interrupted the rest of the two think.
Unlike the little wizard who was shocked and flushed, Lena Dessalion was more interested in what Charlotte said before.
Apart from her, there is no second person in the world who knows Ayin so much...
What do you mean?
Could it be said that Charlotte in the past has actually been more fond of Ayn...Lina couldn't help but think so.
An alchemist, a count of the Scarlet Blood Castle...because the same person came together, but because the same person could not let go of his heart; the contact again and again, in exchange for each other more The long distance, the tossing and turning, the admiration that is difficult to choose...
The result is very frustrating.
No...no.
If this is the case, it seems more interesting...
Lina Desalion, who was thinking about it, did not notice the smile that floated on the corner of her mouth at all.
…………………………
At the same time, Loren in the church is still immersed in the shock at the little priest Weber’s words.
In the past few years, because of his ears and eyes, plus all the situations he saw, he has basically determined that this world is not much different from his impression of his previous life, at least in the feudal Middle Ages, "sacred marriage The difference in "view" is not big.
But now a bishop of Holy Cross Church tells him personally that there is simply nothing like this—whether it is the church or the imperial code, there has never been a rigid provision for marriage to each other, and they must be monogamous.
Of course, what Loren doesn’t even know is the feudal Middle Ages in his previous life, and he has never insisted on monogamy. Most aristocrats are monogamous because they have a strong strength that needs to be cited. The natal family who is a foreign aid and absolutely cannot afford to offend...
"In fact, there is no shortage of examples of polygamy in the history of the empire-of course, the results are not very good." The little priest frowned slightly. Patiently explained:
"Like the sixth generation of'sage' Brandon I, married the heir of Arles Duchy when the original queen was still alive, hoping to win Arles in this way duchy, completely integrated into the empire system."
"Then...the result?" Loren couldn't help asking.
"It is a pity that although Her Majesty the Queen expressed her understanding at the time, the Queen’s family could not at all." Weber shook the head:
"There was a fierce conflict between the two sides. The Queen of Arles also won a lot of support. In addition, the two queens gave birth to a son... This almost evolved into a civil war and ended with forcing the Emperor Brandon I to divorce the Queen of Arles. It was the life of this majesty. The biggest stain."
Little priest Webber's indifferent expression made the black hair wizard stiff.
"So although there is no clear code requirement, this can be considered a kind of unwritten rule, which is a kind of unwritten rules." Weber said softly: "For both parties to the marriage, they Pay more attention to the covenant and benefits brought about by marriage; therefore, if the man marries a new wife, it will be a betrayal of the covenant in the eyes of the female Fang Family."
"But these things are not what we are going to talk about today. Speak frankly, I was still thinking about how to persuade you to give up the idea of marrying Grand Duke Poye..." Weber said with a laugh: "It seems unnecessary now. It turns out that you are really pure comrades-in-arms relationship, it's me. Misunderstood."
"..."Loren Torino.
Looking at the black hair wizard's face full of black lines, with an expression that doesn't know how to explain it, the little priest Webber is faintly relaxed.
Although he has given up all the secular authority, it does not mean that Weber really does not care about the outside world. After parting ways with Holy Cross Church, Byrne Church has essentially become Byrne Duchy's Attached.
For these, Weber doesn’t care. He only cares about the reformed Holy Cross Church, which can truly become what he has in his heart—a church that leads the people with faith and morality. It doesn’t need power at all. Can get the support and follow of believers.
If Loren really decides to marry the scimitar grandfather, the little priest is very worried that things will turn into the sixth generation of the sky chaos-whether it is Charlotte or Poye, they The biggest advantage is strong, and the biggest disadvantage is also strong.
Even if two people are willing to give in to each other, their respective forces will never, even if the best result is unhappy, it even evolved into a war between Byrne and Boye.
The Byrne Church at the moment is still very weak. If Loren and Byrne Duchy behind him are weakened, it means that Byrne Church has lost the last barrier and cannot face the howling from Holy Cross Church. wind and torrential rain.
As a devout believer, Weber is not afraid of death, but he fears that everything he does is meaningless, like smoke and dust, scattered ashes and dispersed smoke after his death; all his efforts not only fail to succeed , Was completely denied, so that latecomers no longer have the courage to move on.
A life under the jurisdiction of the church, all explanations are attributed to the Holy Cross, the eternal "heaven on earth", is the real fear of the little priest-under such a kingdom, don't Speaking of resistance, believers will be completely deprived of their right to question and understand the scriptures.
"Speaking of this, Charlotte and Lena mentioned to me about the wedding plan in ten days." Weber changed his words:
"It should have been She told you in person, but it’s the same for me..."
……………………
"Marriage?!"
The little wizard who blurted out looked at Charlotte and Lena with a stunned expression.
"Yes, you heard that right." Her face flushed slightly, and the Red Blood Castle female count was nodded solemnly:
"Originally as planned, I was going to use this I was caught off guard, forcing Loren Torino to... promise me, and at the same time use this opportunity to integrate Byrne’s power, but the plan can’t keep up with the changes;"
"The appearance of the scarlet giant dragon Grum will return Loren The whole Byrne has been pushed to the cusp of the storm-the fear of the Sky Palace, the hostility of the church, and the many unrealistic ideas of the Byrne Knights. At this time, if the Torino family becomes stronger, it will only lead to the empire. Suppress."
"Now is the time of war. The dominion of the Sky Palace and the emperor is stronger than in peacetime. We don’t even need a reason to weaken us-extorting more supplies or letting us It is possible for the army to garrison a fortress that is absolutely unguardable." Charlotte sighed:
"So next, we must not be too public, but we must not show weakness, let the sky palace think We are weak and can be deceived-doing this is also to protect Loren."
"Fortunately, although the wedding was announced, we did not say whose wedding it was." The female count's expression finally relaxed. : "This leaves us room."
"So, Isaac and I are going to make a'shiny debut'!"
Lina Desaliongou The corners of his mouth were raised, with infinite reveries about the relationship between the little wizard and Charlotte: "I'm very sorry, but this time the bride is not one of you, but me."
"You "The little wizard was even more astonished: "You want to marry Isaac in public?!"
"Yes, a Desa Leone marries a wizard-I will go down in history under this name." Lily Na’s expression was very proud at this time:
"Isaac is the most important friend of the Duke of Byrne, and to a certain extent, he is also a representative of the wizard group. When I marry him, the Duke of Byrne is in the Sky Palace. In other words, the Imperial Family has formally requested an'alliance'."
"Yes...Yes..." The little wizard stammered: "Sky Palace...your family...Imperial Family...I mean the emperor. , Can they agree with you?!"
"My family definitely won't, but Connold will definitely—this is profitable for him, and it can alleviate the grievances of the wizards in the empire;" Lena shrugged her shoulders disapprovingly:
"A wizard becoming the son-in-law of the Imperial Family will greatly inspire the wizards’ loyalty to the empire and make them feel that they are valued by the empire and their status Improved, dignity is taken care of... , Although I really just think about it. "
"I can get these, as a price...a trifling is not taken seriously, and even regarded as a half-traitor of the Imperial Family sideline, what is a pity? "
"So sorry, this beautiful wedding on the surface belongs to me. "The triumphant Lena Desalion deliberately opened the mouth and said in an apologetic tone:
"Of course, as your mutual friend, of course I will give you one too. A little bit of compensation, for example..."
"Do you think that when a wizard and an Imperial Family get married, who else will care about the Duke of Byrne's wedding? "
