Alien Knights

Chapter 374: Marriage proposal

Guyan City, Palace Garden.

Bishop Aubart flipped through a thin book and asked the middle-aged man in front of him: "Jennings, what do you think about this "Justification by Faith"?"

Although the face of the middle-aged man still looks young, he has a lot of silver threads in his hair. Sitting on the stone chair in the pavilion, he calmly asked: "Before we discuss the contents of the book, it is better to first Guess where this book came from?"

"According to the trader, he took almost fifty copies of this book with him. After he traveled to a country, he would give a booklet to the local king or leader." Bishop Aubart touched the page with his finger. Those neat texts smiled and said: "To be able to copy this book in such a large quantity, and to typeset the text so neatly, I am afraid that only one country's technology can do it in this world."

Jennings pursed his mouth and nodded in agreement.

Bishop Aubart asked: "So in your opinion, why are they doing this? Or, what are they going to do next?"

Jennings folded his arms around his chest, thought for a while, and said: "I don't know what those people want to do, but this action is equivalent to fighting the church and is not a wise move."

Bishop Aubart smiled and waved his hand: "I think there will be a battle between Twilight and the Pope sooner or later. Think about it, taking in alien species, coupled with the use of taboo technology, everything Twilight is doing now is It is the wisest choice to challenge the authority of the church, instead of waiting for attacks from the other side, to minimize the influence of the church from the root of religion to the greatest extent."

Jennings patted the title page of the booklet with his hand: "Even if the book is justified and the church’s religious control has been weakened as a result, it is no different from the power of a kingdom in Twilight to be the enemy of the church. Hit the stone with the pebbles."

Aubart brushed his chin with his hand: "I always feel that this book is just an introduction. Twilight's religious offensive will definitely not stop here. Maybe they should have some follow-up moves."

Jennings looked at each other and asked quietly: "If, I mean, if the church asks all the parish kingdoms to encircle the west city on the grounds of attacking heretics, what should we do?"

Aubart pondered for a moment, then said softly: "Let's just watch the changes. After all, the development of West City in the past few years is in your eyes. God knows them..."

Before the words were over, the child's crisp laughter came from the other side of the garden.

Aubart and Jennings looked up and saw an eight or nine-year-old girl happily following the maid running along the forest road in the garden, with carefree smiles on her faces.

Jennings cast a spoiled look at the girl, then turned his head back and sighed heavily: "It has been five years since the old king has passed away. Your Majesty is still too young now..."

Orbart also said: "The most terrible thing is that the fighting in the south is escalating every day. Even on the lighthouse in Lone Rock City, I can hear the rumble of explosions in the distance."

"The church is still indulging in the empire feats of the Tyrolean period, and is reluctant to look at the situation in the south." Jennings said with a wry smile: "Just when the pagans were already using muskets and artillery, we People also locked themselves in iron cans."

Aubart looked at the cross in the center of the flower garden and shook his head feebly: "Let us pray to Heavenly Father, and pray that the war in the South will never end."

Twilight West, the palace audience room.

Huggins looked at Todd who was busy reviewing official documents at his desk, and whispered: "Your Majesty, you have been busy on the road. You have just returned to the city. Why don't you go to the palace and rest for half a day?"

Todd didn't raise his head either: "It doesn't make much difference whether the work that should be done is done earlier or later. By the way, who I asked you to hire?"

"They are just outside the door."

"Invite them in."

After a while, the cabinet members of Twilight West, Emerson, Terrence, Elijah, Joe, Raglan and his wife walked into the room.

Waiting for everyone to be seated, Todd stopped the pen in his hand and asked everyone: "Stop the gossip, let me listen to Muxicheng's recent developments."

According to the different functions of the department, Terrence first said: "The main project of Muxi University has been completed, and students and teachers have moved in. Also, there have been a number of patents in physics, mathematics, chemistry and other disciplines in the kingdom. The detailed list I have organized it into a book."

Elijah continued: "Your Majesty, the first phase of the Musi Cathedral has been completed. I dare to swear to you that if it is completed, it will be the most magnificent and magnificent church in the world. We have gathered from the monks. A group of people served as seminarians in the church and hired Moore Rupert as the acting priest..."

"Moore Rupert? Is that the one-armed priest?" Todd asked.

Elijah nodded: "Father Moore's explanation of the doctrine is quite insightful, but in the interpretation of some scriptures, there have been conflicts with the monks more than once."

The third speaker was Joe. He smiled and said to Todd: "Your Majesty, due to our immigration policy, the total population of Muxicheng is now close to 100,000. Looking outside the city, there are cultivated fields everywhere. With the latest channels and waterwheels designed by Muxi University, we can divert the lakes under the mountains to the fields to irrigate the dealers. As long as it comes to autumn, it will be a big harvest."

Holding the latest economic data, the Raglans reported to Todd Report: "Your Majesty, the Kingdom’s income reached a new high last month. The main reason is that we have newly added several products, such as mirrors, soaps, etc., in It is well received overseas."

Listening to these people speaking one by one, Todd turned his eyes to Emerson who was still silent: "Prime Minister, don't you have anything to say?"

Emerson cleared his throat: "The five thousand refugees from the Holy Acropolis have been transported to the north smoothly. I believe that it will not take long before they can reach the land. The materials you requested to support the Holy Acropolis are also ready. You can start drawing; there is also the musket production progress that you asked me to follow up before you travel. Aiden Kerm has imitated samples. You can go and see if you have time..."

Seeing the other person's face hesitant to talk~lightnovelpub.net~ Todd knew he had something to say, and first disbanded the others, leaving only Emerson.

"There are several things that need your ruling." Emerson looked at Todd and whispered: "The first thing, about the Reformation. The book that pointed out the fallacy of the doctrine has been circulated. Next, , What are you going to do?"

Todd clasped his fists and propped his chin: "How did the outside world react?"

"According to the feedback from the Chamber of Commerce, the diocesan kingdoms reacted differently, but most of them took a wait-and-see attitude."

Todd sighed: "The first fire of the reform is to be lit, and the next thing is how to add firewood... Later, I will call a meeting to arrange this matter."

Emerson nodded: "The second thing is that the cabinet has inconsistent opinions regarding the recent handling of some government affairs. For example, the settlement of the refugees from the Holy Acropolis in the north, due to concerns about different religious beliefs, the cabinet is divided into two. group……"

Todd waved his hand indifferently: "You are the prime minister of the cabinet. It is up to you to decide how to integrate the opinions of the members. If you encounter a difficult problem that you can't handle, it's not too late to come to me."

Emerson heard this with a relaxed look on his face: "One last thing, Cumberland wrote me a letter stating the situation inside the Holy Acropolis."

Thinking of the stubborn old knight, Todd's head suddenly grew a lot: "What did he say in the letter?"

Seeing the embarrassed look on the king’s face, Emerson said, “To be honest, I think the old guy said something reasonable this time. He hopes that he will let me work with him to persuade you to reach the new queen of the Holy Acropolis. Marriage.” (https:)
