Chapter 265 The Child at the Birth Mass
Vinakana was born during the mass, and when she was one year old, she was taken to the church by her parents for baptism.

With love for this hard-won child, Ulysses and Remedios gave her a Christian name—Vinakana, because when they opened the roster, there happened to be a sunny day. On top of that name, combined with the fact that the eldest daughter was born during the Mass, the king and his wife had to suspect that it was God's will.

Vinakana Remedios Ulysses.

That was the full name of the kid with the blond hair on top of his head.

And according to the customs brought by the southerners a hundred years ago, Vinakana will take another real name when she becomes an adult.

The archbishop of the holy city personally baptized the eldest daughter of the royal family. He splashed the consecrated water on Vinakana's forehead, supplemented by holy bells, bee candles, and various spices.

The bishop complimented the king and said she was blessed.

Vinakana was very well-behaved throughout the whole process. She didn't cry or make trouble, but just looked at the holy bell curiously.

It was just a little accident after the baptism. While her parents were talking with the bishop, she raised her little hand and knocked over the holy water basin. Fortunately, her clothes were not wet.

After being baptized, overturning the holy water basin and releasing it to the superstitious folk will surely make parents and priests panic.

Ulysses and Remedios looked at the eldest daughter, the former was a little worried, but the latter said: "She was born in the mass, and because of her... I heard the oracle."

The king raised his eyebrows, he plucked at the folds of his clothes, and asked hesitantly, "Queen, did you really hear the oracle?"

On the third day after Vinakana was born, the maids suddenly reported to him nervously: when the queen was about to pray, she heard a voice from heaven, and she was the only one who heard it.

Ulysses was dubious about this, and if it weren't for the fact that Remedios was the closest person to him, he wouldn't even have any confidence in it.

Even now and then, in retrospect, Ulysses would subconsciously think that the queen was hallucinating from postpartum weakness.

Remedios nodded slowly.

"Daughters of the Holy City, I charge you:
Don't startle, don't wake up my beloved, wait until she wants. "

The queen recalled that sudden voice, so holy and gentle, that one felt the speaker possessed great forgiveness and patience.

Among the true believers, there has always been a hidden consensus.

"When he appears, you know it's him."

This sentence means that when the voice or will of the Lord appears to you, you will automatically know that it is the Lord.

This is a rumor that has been circulated among true believers. No one can be sure that it is true, and no one can be sure that it is a lie.

The queen also heard the voice say that Vinakana had some mission, but no one knew it at the moment.

Remedios stepped forward and knelt down, Vinacana raised her hands and her mother gently lifted her buttocks.

Ulysses was not sure whether what the queen said was true, and he was more inclined to believe that it was a common postpartum auditory hallucination. After all, no one in the royal family has listened to the oracle except King Laurent all these years.

The baptized Vinakana raised her head and looked curiously at the magnificent dome of the Ring Cathedral.

Fine sand and stones fell from the dome.

The bishop patted his head, remembered something, turned and said to the king: "Your Majesty, the dome of the cathedral is going to be repaired, and the Lord's cathedral must not look dilapidated."

Ulysses also saw the fine sand falling from the dome. This cathedral, which has been settled by the pope for hundreds of years, is indeed time for repairs.

Precisely according to an unwritten rule-the royal family should baptize their children and worship what is due to the church, so as to accumulate good deeds for their children.

Thinking of this, Ulysses said cheerfully, "In the name of God, bring some trustworthy monks to the treasury."

"Praise be to the Lord, and also praise to His Majesty's generosity."

The bishop gave Ulysses the ring ceremony.

The bishop who baptized Vinakana complimented the king and his wife, and their eldest daughter is blessed, but it is clear that the bishop's compliment does not match what Vina Kana experienced when she grew up.

And there was a huge discrepancy.

Contrary to the well-behaved childhood, as Vinakana grew older, the king and queen were surprised that the child seemed to grow more withdrawn.

Remedios loved her, and Ulysses also loved her. The couple who ruled the kingdom did their best to take care of her and teach her. Raise a withdrawn character.

In the royal family, it is not a sad thing to be lonely. The princess's character flaws will always be tolerated. She is loved by her parents. Ulysses had envisioned her future marriage. According to folk customs, girls Marriage is often between the ages of 12 and 14.

But Remedios mourned terribly when she thought that she would not see her daughter in less than ten years.

"For the sake of the Lord, I want to accompany her until she is 20 years old."

Being unmarried at the age of 16 is already an old girl in the eyes of others, but after a little hesitation, Ulysses readily agreed to this point.

The princess's character defect is a small misfortune, she repells many maids and servants, and makes the servants in the palace dizzy, only a few who are patient and find her easy to take care of.

Because it is limited to withdrawn personality, it is not too difficult to serve Vinakana.

But unfortunately, it is a greedy fox raccoon dog, it will never learn when enough is enough, it will always bow its body, its cunning eyes will stare at the prey, ready to take a mouthful of fat at any time.

And when Vinakana was 13 years old, one night, she suddenly yelled in pain, which almost woke up the entire palace.

The maids walked into Vinakana's bedroom. She had fallen off the bed and fell to the ground, clutching her calf, her expression extremely painful.

Her legs were infected with a disease that came from nowhere, and they were red and swollen for several days. The accompanying high fever tortured this beautiful child to death.

The entire royal palace became flustered and tense because of this. Except for Vinakana, the king and his wife had no other children in recent years, and almost everyone knew how much the royal family valued her.

Many days later, when her high fever gradually subsided, Remedios received a sad news.

Vinakana's legs were so sick that her eldest daughter could no longer stand.

In the next two years, the king and queen offered generous rewards and searched for doctors everywhere, even those with rich medical names among pagans, but still no one could heal Vinakana's legs.

No one knows how Vinakana got the disease, and no one knows the origin of the disease, except Vinakana herself.

Only Vinakana herself knows what happened to her.
