sultan's crescent

Chapter 118

The environment of the bathrooms is very good, unlike those used by other people, these bathrooms are dedicated to the royal family, and Anna's was specially ordered by Emperor Se the Great to expand.

At the edge of the bath, the sun shines through the arched windows throughout the bathroom, illuminating the stone walls and beige marble steps, creating a sacred and solemn atmosphere.

The bathroom interior is beautifully and ornately decorated.The walls are inlaid with elaborately carved stone and blue colored tiles, depicting ornate geometric patterns and flower patterns.

The smooth marble floor reflects the shimmer, and the bluestone slab at the door is covered with fine gravel, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Warm water vapor rose from the stone inkstone, bringing moist air and a refreshing smell.

Anna stepped into the bath, her wrap robe slipping below her knees, revealing her white legs.

She lifted her steps lightly and stepped into the water.Warm water enveloped her body.

There is a faint fragrance of roses in the bathroom, which makes girls feel happy and refreshed.

The girl closed her eyes and took a deep breath of the melodious steam.Every inch of skin in the body is embraced by the moisture of water at this moment.

She sank slowly into the water, and the water splashed and wet her hair.

She gently rubbed her skin, and the moist foam spread in the bathroom.

Her hair was soaked in the water, and the water came out of her body suddenly, and a few drops of water remained on it, like diamonds embedded in her shiny black hair.

After a long bath, the girl gently pushed open the bathroom door.

Dressed in a soft bathrobe, she stepped out of the steamy space into a bright and peaceful room.

Her hair was still dripping with water, scattered on her shoulders, revealing a moist luster.

Her skin is white and delicate, and it seems that because of the moisture of the water, it glows with a natural beauty.

Several female waiters came forward and began to serve Anna's clothes, this time it was traditional Muslim clothes.

The girl's eyes were bright and clear, revealing an innocent and pure light.She walked lightly to the mirror, stroked her cheek with a soft towel, and wiped it clean gently.

"Miss Anna, let's go, it's time to see the Grand Mufti."

Ulema's voice sounded outside the door, and Anna followed her out, turned a few turns, and came to the prayer room.

"Good morning, Miss Anna."

The Grand Mufti bowed slightly.

"Let's start now. I wonder how you understand the word caliph in His Majesty's title?"

"His Majesty as Padisha of the Ottomans and nations, the greatest Sultan and noble Khan, owner of the necks of his subjects, servant of the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, the shadow of Allah in all the world, the two Sultan of the Romans, Arabs and Persians in the continent and the two seas.

He is not "khalīfat Rasūl Allah" (the successor of the Messenger of Allah), nor should he be "khalīfat Allāh" (the successor of Allah). ruler. "

Anna's answer directly shocked the Grand Mufti. To be honest, this is not an easy question to answer.

Because it is related to the single Qur'an, but not to the point where the answer can be drawn directly.

As the grand mufti, the reason why he asked this question was not to test whether Anna could answer it, but more to do some real testing before this political show.

But Anna's answer was beyond his expectation, maybe this is the arrangement of Allah.

The whole process was carried out in an orderly manner, and finally reached the final link, swearing under the witness.

"Miss Anna, please read it with me, about the opening verse.

In the name of Allah, the most merciful, the most merciful, all praise is to Allah, the Lord of the worlds, the most merciful, the most merciful, the Lord of the day of retribution, we only worship you, we only ask for your help and guide us in the right way.The way of those you help is not the way of the wrathful, nor the way of the astray.

I testify that there is no God worthy of worship except Allah, He is unique; and I testify that Muhammad is the servant and Messenger of Allah. "

At this point, the entire conversion process has ended.Anna walked out of the mosque with the two girls.

News of the conversion of the Orthodox Patriarch's daughter spread throughout the Ottoman Empire, and even throughout Europe.

"So tell you not to die, Georgi, thank me soon."

Lying on the bed, Stefan said to Georgi Latev with a playful smile.

"Look at the Greeks and you'll know. There was so much publicity before, saying that the Sultan wanted to marry an Orthodox Christian as Sultana.

How powerful these people are in their propaganda, how swollen their face is now after being slapped, it makes me so happy.

The point is that these bastards don't know how to be ashamed, and they got together to send money to the sultan to repair the palace, really. Hahaha. "

Stefan was already bursting out laughing, but Georgi still had a cold face.

"Oh. I know why you stopped laughing, do you think we will do the same in the future?"

Stefan laughed again.

"I think it's even more funny when you do this, and figure out one thing, Georgy.

From the Battle of Kosovo in 1389.

It started when our knights failed to crush each other.

Since our ancestor, the Duke of Kosovo, Bronkevic chose to lead his army to retreat to preserve his strength and retreat, which led to the complete siege of the Serbian army by the Ottoman army.

We're done, understand? "

No one in the room spoke anymore, only Stefan's laughter echoed.

The conversations taking place in this room are just a microcosm of the conversations of countless Balkan Orthodox gentlemen.

They are either still hopeful or desperate.

However, the sorrows and joys of human beings are not interlinked, and Catherine II was already very happy at this time.

Directly to the Patriarch of the Orthodox Church in Russia, she declared: "The behavior of the Ottoman Sultan is undoubtedly cruel and intolerable, and it is an oppression of the Orthodox Christians.

The great Russian Empire is the successor of Rome and the inheritor of Orthodox civilization.

The idea that the Ottoman sultans no longer had the right to protect the Orthodox Christians belonged to the great tsar.

And in view of the brutality of the Sultan's actions, the Tsar believed that the armistice agreement between the two countries no longer applied.

The great Russian Empire will send troops at any time to protect the religious rights of Orthodox Christians. "

Speaking of which, Tsarist Russia's non-existent credit rating has been lowered by several grades.

Unfortunately, not long after Russia issued this declaration, France declared war on Prussia and Austria, and many monarchies were forced to turn their attention to the West. After all, freedom and equality are the biggest enemies of monarchs.

Of course, excluding the Ottoman Empire, the lower class was illiterate and had no way of knowing this kind of thinking, but the upper class was literate. Unfortunately, they have not yet evolved to the point where they can betray their own class and revolutionize themselves.

The uproarious revolutionary ideas spreading in the European continent could not cause any waves here in Ottoman.

What's more, Selim also specially promulgated the "Anti-Secession Law". It can only be said that whether it is intentional or not, the existence of France is to save the Ottoman Empire from worry and effort.
