My name is Ren

Chapter 562 The more beautiful a thing may be, the more dangerous it is, yearning for beauty always makes people deliberately ignore something

Toddillas has been the most prosperous city in the Southwest for a long time, bar none.

Grand Duke Joan served the three emperors of the Orlando family successively, suppressing and managing the southwestern part of the empire on behalf of the emperor. Wherever she is, there will inevitably be rich people gathered.It can be said that Toddellas became prosperous entirely because of Grand Duke Joan of Arc.Countless businessmen have flooded into the city, bringing a large number of floating population and consumption possibilities, so that Toddillas has the potential to become a royal court.

However, after Grand Duke Joan went crazy and slaughtered a city, the city of Toddeiras became somewhat depressed.Businessmen who are extremely sensitive to the direction of the wind have begun to withdraw gradually. Compared with their lives, the industry is obviously not as inseparable as people imagined.

Of course, from the current point of view, the city is still prosperous.

Grand Duke Joan of Arc hadn't shown up for a long time, and even the government affairs in Feng's country were handed over to her retainers. She didn't even want to see anyone unless necessary.She is still immersed in the grief of losing her beloved son, unable to extricate herself, and shed tears every day.She is already old and has no ability to reproduce the next offspring. The continuous conquests in her youth and her growing fighting spirit have caused her to lose her fertility early.

Asomend's death, to her, was like the sky falling apart.

At this moment in the dark bedroom, she was sitting loosely on the bed, her straight back bent down.His hair became gray, and he could no longer see his original color. His cloudy eyes stared blankly at the door of the bedroom, and Asomende's smiles of different ages flashed in his mind from time to time.

"He learned things very quickly when he was a child." The hoarse voice was empty and emotionless, like the sound produced by two pieces of metal rubbing against each other, "I remember when he was nine years old, I just came back from the imperial capital, and he covered in sweat, ran over to meet me, and then laughed and said to me, "Mom, I'm already a knight!", as if recalling memories of the past, a trace of Reminiscing about the past smile, her eyes were a little moist, "I still remember that he was only nine years old. To give me a surprise, he trained hard in the sun at the hottest time of summer and tamed a A horse of his own."

"You may not know how happy I was at that time. This made me happier than anything the emperor gave me! This kind of happiness is pure, without the slightest impurity!"

"Also, when he was 14 years old, he fell in love with a farmer's daughter..." When he said this, Grand Duke Joan's tone was full of remorse, "This is the first time he tasted love, Behind my back, he picked flowers from the garden and gave them to the girl every day. He tried his best to put a smile on the girl's face, no matter how difficult it was, he would do it."

"Later, when I found out about this, I was filled with jealousy. Please forgive my sinful heart as a widow with a child. I was jealous of that girl, and out of jealousy came hatred. I hated her from I snatched the child around me and hated that she wanted to degrade my child, that she sent him to work in the fields, to do menial and dirty jobs."

"So I killed her with my own hands and took away his joy, but it was to get Asomende back on the right path. He hasn't spoken to me in a long time, and I haven't looked for He, it took about three or four months for our relationship to ease. I told him that he would become the king of this feudal country in the future, and his wife could never be a farmer's daughter, but only A descendant of a noble, and a descendant of a great noble."

"How I regret it now, why did I do such a stupid thing, I should let him be happy, even if he does those menial jobs, even if he will be laughed at for marrying a farmer's daughter, as long as he is alive !"

"You, can you understand my mood at that time? Your lord priest?" She rolled her eyes and looked at the cardinal standing in the shadows, wearing a robe with red background and gold trim.

The church has indeed been suppressed all the time, and that is on a macro level.But after breaking away from this macroscopic level, the acceptance of the church by the bottom society is still quite high.Not to mention other things, just a healing technique is enough for ordinary people to accept the existence of the church.The instability and high price of alchemy potions are enough to stop many people suffering from illnesses and pains, but it only takes one or two silver coins to ten silver coins to receive a healing technique, which is consumed by everyone. , but also very safe and reliable.

Even many aristocrats will hire some clergy, openly or secretly, to build churches for them in their fiefs, in case of emergencies.

Even the imperial capital has a cardinal waiting to be summoned by Queen Pars at any time, let alone the "countryside" where there is not much hostility to the church?In Toddillas, there is a bishop stationed there, waiting for the call of Grand Duke Joan anytime and anywhere.

This time, because the matter was more difficult, the bishop applied for a cardinal to handle the matter.

It’s not a big deal to say, Asomende’s death is disgraceful, he didn’t fight for justice and friendship and died because of it, he was killed on the bed just to lew other people’s wives, so his The soul cannot ascend to the kingdom of heaven, but can only wander in the world.If a soul cannot find a shelter that can provide a safe place to live in a short period of time, then the soul has only two paths.

Either gradually dissipate in this world as time goes by, or become a terrifying ghost, lose all reason and memory, and become a ghost driven by instinct and desire.

Whatever the reason, Grand Duke Joan would not let her beloved child disappear or become a ghost.She is willing to donate [-] gold coins to the church, hoping that the church can send at least a cardinal-level clergyman to save her son's soul, so that he can have the opportunity to ascend to heaven and enjoy eternal joy and well-being.

The cardinal smiled compassionately. He would not argue with a crazy woman who lost her child, "I can understand you, my lord queen, and this is also the purpose of my coming here."

He took off the Bible under his arm, put it on the palm of his hand, said that he was impolite, and walked to the edge of the bed. He looked at Grand Duke Joan who had been tortured and had begun to lose shape, and held her wrist. Lay her hand on the bible.

"I understand the pain in your heart, and I understand your difficulties. The purpose of my coming here is not only to save that poor soul, but also a poor person." When he spoke, the cardinal began to exude tenderness. The white light made Grand Duke Joan feel a bit of warmth and a bit of relief.She looked at the cardinal in astonishment, and the cardinal smiled amiably, "If your child was here, he would definitely not want you to torture yourself like this."

"Father God told us that if you want to get rid of all grief, sorrow, and troubles, you first need to let go of everything. Only by letting go of everything can you return to your true self and be liberated. Letting go is not an act of weakness, on the contrary Yes, this is a great power. Only a true warrior can have the courage to truly let go of everything. I can pray for your child, I can guide him to heaven, but this also needs your strength. Hate can't help anyone People can only destroy themselves and others, and only truth, kindness, beauty and benevolence can help you and your children."

"Under the glory of God the Father, I hope you will work together with me to wash away all the sin and evil on your body, and leave the beauty and goodness behind."

The first God of the Church of Light is not the God of Light, but God the Father.The reason why the Church of Light is not called the Church of the Father or anything else is directly related to the development, division and reorganization of the church.The Church of Light has been passed down from the age of mythology to the present, and there have been countless sects within the church. For example, in the period of the Shenmei Society in ancient times, the Myojin sect occupied a dominant position.

In modern times, the Discipline Sect defeated the Myojin Sect, and the name of the church became the Shenwei Church.By about 4000 years ago, the sect of the Holy Light took over and the church's name became the Church of the Holy Light again.

Until the period of the Holy Empire, in order to conform to the will and rule of the Holy Emperor, the Glory Sect, which had made some achievements in the history of the church, reformed the teachings of the sect, citing the idea that "the Lord of Light is the second Lord of God". With the help of God, it returned to the position of internal leadership, thus allowing the Church of the Holy Light to return to the "Sect of Light".

The Church of Light is just a popular name, and the Church of Light is the most orthodox and formal name.

The church may have always been a kind and benevolent image to outsiders, but the fierceness of the struggle between sects within the church is by no means weaker than the political struggle.There is still the possibility of compromise and relaxation in political struggles, but in sectarian struggles within the church, the losing party will inevitably be driven out, and even the teachings will be burned.There are so many sects that have ruled for hundreds of thousands of years in history, and now there is not even a complete sentence of their teachings left.

Many people who don't know much about the church tend to think that the Church of Light has only one god, the God of Light. This is actually a wrong concept. The first god is always the father.In the age of mythology, Rossi, the incarnation of God the Father walking in the world, spread the original teachings to the whole world, and established the holy power system, laying the foundation and foundation for the existence of the entire church.So no matter who comes to power, Father God will always be the number one God Lord.

A bright light erupted from the cardinal's body in an instant, but this light did not have the slightest anger or power. Instead, it was as gentle and soft as gentle water, wrapping the person tightly, and all the troubles and worries in his heart Sadness began to fade away.This is the first time for Grand Duke Joan of Arc to feel peace after Asomende's death, like floating on a calm lake, enjoying the tranquility and indifference brought by the slight movement of the water and the caress of the breeze.

Suddenly, Grand Duke Joan withdrew her hand abruptly, squinted slightly, eyes full of warning, and looked at the cardinal.

The cardinal still smiled like that, not paying attention to the warning in her eyes, and slowly grabbed Grand Duke Joan's wrist again, "Please don't reject the power of love, God the Father loves the world, so he let his glory lead Let the ordinary people bathe in the glory, enjoy the tranquility, and wash away their sins."

"For you, for your children, for those innocent people who died under your will, please accept the power of God the Father!"

In an instant, an extremely strong light instantly enveloped the entire bedroom!
