Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- The issue of Joan of Arc in France has been taken care of by the Song Empire.
This is something that gives the church some headaches.
Moreover, the new legions from the Holy Roman Empire are now a little timid and do not dare to attack the Americans.
This made Carlos a little angry.
Damn it, are Americans so scary?
He doesn¡¯t believe in evil very much.
"Notify the Holy Roman Empire that if their newly formed legions do not attack France, then we will cut off their material assistance and financial assistance."
Carlos brought a blow to the Holy Roman Empire.
Yes, although these people in the Vatican do not have armed forces, they have money.
And they are different from those wealthy businessmen, because they have a great reputation and many brain-dead believers.
Therefore, they don¡¯t have to worry about exposing their money and being targeted by these countries.
The people who dare to rob the church¡¯s wealth have not yet appeared.
They are not the Jews.
Carlos¡¯s words were recorded by a small attendant behind him, and he was ready to wait for the meeting to end before immediately sending someone to the Holy Roman Empire.
Anyway, the Vatican is very close to the capital of the Roman Empire, so there is no need to worry.
"This matter can be easily solved. What I'm worried about is that what the Americans said will soon spread to Europe. At that time, what do people think we should do?"
Carlos is not nervous at all about matters in the Holy Roman Empire.
Because he knows that as long as he comes out with materials and financial aid, the other party will definitely give in.
The reason is very simple, because the domestic economy of the Holy Roman Empire has been in ruins and there is not enough food.
If there is no support from the church, there will definitely be turmoil in the country.
By then, those superior men will have a difficult time.
When people don¡¯t have enough to eat, they are inhumane.
¡°If a riot breaks out, people like them may lose their lives.
¡°If the church was instigating something at that timehehe, this is not impossible.
Therefore, the Holy Roman Empire will definitely send people to urge the legions immediately after hearing what they say, and start attacking the Americans.
For this, Carlos has very strong confidence.
Therefore, he focused all his energy on how to deal with the troubles that would arise in the future.
Yes, America threw out Joan of Arc as an excuse to attack the church.
?Those things that the church has done in the past simply cannot withstand scrutiny.
When the time comes, after remembering what happened to this girl hundreds of years ago, how will the people of Europe view the church?
This is not the most troublesome thing for Carlos. What makes him most uneasy is that the other party also brought up some things behind the confession, pointing directly at the weakness of the church.
¡°Besides, these are not rumors at all. In the secret archives of the church, there are some records about Joan of Arc and the collection of secret information about confession, as well as warrants from previous popes.
If these things get spread.
hehe!
¡°You know it with your butt, the church¡¯s reputation will be bad.
At this time, sitting on the lower left side of Carlos, a man wearing a red robe said: "It's very simple. Hundreds of years have passed since the incident of Joan of Arc. We can push this matter to the people who were in power at that time." As for the church¡¯s senior leaders, just say that they are the most corrupt people. After hundreds of years of hard work, our church is no longer so corrupt.¡±
It has to be said that this fat man¡¯s brain works very quickly, and the method he proposed is still very feasible.
In that era, the church leaders were all dead anyway.
There¡¯s nothing wrong with bearing some infamy now.
??Besides, it was indeed them who betrayed Joan for their own selfish interests and the interests of the church.
In this regard, no one has wronged them.
Therefore, if we put this matter on them, there will be no problem at all.
Hearing this, Carlos looked at the fat cardinal with a satisfied expression and nodded in relief.
"Very good, your proposal is very good and very feasible. This way you can convince those stupid peopleignorant believers, and we can still have a good public impression at the same time. "
Then, Carlos asked: "So, how should we deal with the Americans who say that we use confession to collect secrets and intelligence?"
This problem is the most difficult.
Therefore, when Carlos asked everyone how to solve the problem, everyone at the meeting fell silent.
"The other party is spreading rumors. We just need to say that the other party is spreading rumors." At this time, a voice sounded and attracted everyone's attention.
The person speaking was a guy who had just entered the Vatican¡¯s top leadership not long ago. He was qualified as a Vatican cardinal from a regional bishop.
He is in his early fifties, neither fat nor lanky, and his typical European appearance is not outstanding at all.
"Oh, why do you say that? Are we just going to ignore these rumors?"
Carlos asked with some confusion.
Yes, according to normal people¡¯s thinking, when faced with such a rumor, the church must stand up and clarify itself.
¡°If they don¡¯t stand up and clarify, wouldn¡¯t it mean that what the Americans say is true?
This is extremely detrimental to the church.
Therefore, this guy said that they just wanted to confirm the Americans' rumors and ignore other things, which made Carlos very puzzled.
He has to figure it out. He must not have said this randomly. He must have his own reasons.
After Carlos finished speaking, all the cardinals in the room stared at the man with gleaming eyes.
Everyone is waiting to hear his answer.
In fact, they were also very curious as to what answer this man would give.
Facing the gaze of many eyes, this man did not feel any pressure or nervousness at all. He looked around everyone and smiled, and then slowly said: "We insist that it is a rumor, then this must be a rumor. As for rumors and lies, why should we explain them?¡±
He talked eloquently to everyone, as if he had a plan in mind.
Everyone present was very quiet, and everyone was listening to his words.
"People, sometimes it's strange. The more you explain, the less they believe it. But when you don't pay attention and explain, they will only be half-convinced." This man said his own understanding.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡ª She Can Even Become a High-Level Member of the Church
Some of them even need to understand more thoroughly.
So, when this man said what he was thinking about, many people present nodded secretly and agreed with his statement.
Even Carlos¡¯s eyes lit up, and he had obviously thought of something.
In this era, there are definitely no topics related to psychological research.
But, as people in the church, they must have done research on this aspect.
As for what the name is, I don¡¯t know.
After all, they have to make a living by deceiving the people and believers, so they must understand people's hearts and thinking. Only in this way can they spread their so-called beliefs.
"In short, we want to propagate to believers that America is an extremely evil country. The people there are barbaric, bloody and cruel and do not believe in God. They believe in some kind of devil and devil, so they must slander our God."
The more the man talked, the more excited he became.
However, everyone understood a little bit. It turned out that what this guy meant was that everyone was going back and forth, and if you framed me, I would also expose you.
¡°Well, that¡¯s a good idea.
? Here in Europe, the power of the church is still quite strong.
As long as the church says so, believers will definitely believe it.
By then, no matter what kind of rumors spread from the Americas, believers will not believe them.
Who told America that it was a country of demons?
Carlos smiled with satisfaction.
The cardinal hadn't finished speaking yet. He continued: "Now that the rumor has not spread on the European continent, we still have a chance to eliminate this rumor. So that believers will not be bewitched by this heresy and break away from God. embrace, so we must seize the time and immediately send people to spread the news that Europe is the birthplace of the devil.??. "
Speaking of excitement, this guy even waved his fist.
"At the same time, we have to ask God to send an oracle. I think God will definitely let us tell believers that Satan has appeared in America, right?"
After speaking, the cardinal looked at Carlos with an indifferent expression.
However, the faint smile on his lips also betrayed the pride in his heart at this moment.
This was a headache for everyone, but in a short period of time, he came up with a solution.
It is indeed enough to make him proud.
Carlos¡¯s eyes widened, he stared at the man blankly for a while, and then he laughed.
Ha ha ha ha!
"Yes, it's a very good method. In this way, we don't have to worry about anything. These are just Satan's temptations. As a believer of God and a lamb, how can we believe the words of the devil descending from hell."
Carlos looked at the other party with a very appreciative look in his eyes.
"I remember you, your name is Ophir, and you are the cardinal who entered the Vatican half a year ago. Compared with us old men, you are the youngest cardinal."
Carlos¡¯s appreciation made Offill feel a little proud, but it didn¡¯t show on his face. Instead, he bowed down very humbly.
What Pope Carlos said to Offill is also true. Among the cardinals attending today, Offill is really the youngest.
For example, Pope Carlos is over eighty years old.
The other cardinals are all in their sixties or seventies.
Therefore, Offill, who is in his fifties, can really be called young.
It is hard to imagine that in the seventeenth century, when living conditions were not as good as those of later generations, these high-level people in the church could live such a long life.
You know, on the European continent, people generally live no more than fifty years.
It can also be seen from this that the church is quite nurturing.
"However, those who support the church are countless ordinary European people from the bottom.
¡°For the glory of God.¡±
Ofir bowed and saluted very humbly and responded.
Carlos nodded slightly, he was satisfied with Offill's humility.
Immediately, Pope Carlos ordered: "Everyone has heard it. We will do what Offill said. Now we have to inform the whole of Europe that Satan has come to the world, so that all believers will know the news."
As Carlos¡¯s words fell, everyone stood up and shouted in unison: ¡°Glory belongs to my Lord!¡±
Afterwards, the cardinals left here one after another, and they wanted to immediately implement the decisions made at the meeting.
"Ofhir, you stay."
When Ofir was about to leave, Carlos called out to him.
"What's the matter? Your Majesty."
After being stopped by Pope Carlos, Ofhir felt a little strange.
He doesn¡¯t understand, now that everything has been resolved, why should he be left here?
You know, he is just a little shrimp who has just entered the cardinal class.
In terms of seniority here in the Vatican, it is better for him to keep his tail between his legs. If no one could come up with a solution this time, he would not have stood up and said that solution.
After all, he is also a member of the church, so he cannot watch the church have problems.
This is related to his personal interests.
There are a lot of intrigues here in the Vatican. He has always believed that before he has obtained certain qualifications, he must not be too pushy.
After his proposal was recognized by Pope Carlos just now, although many people just opened their mouths and praised it, he saw vigilance and jealousy in the eyes of many people.
Now that Carlos has left him alone again, doesn't this make those guys hate him even more?
But faced with Carlos¡¯s efforts to stay, Offill had to stop.
Ofir respectfully walked to Carlos's side and stood next to him, looking very humble.
Carlos smiled and said to Offill: "The suggestion you just made is very good, but have you thought about it? If the believers in Europe believe that Satan is reincarnated and appears on the American continent, will they They strongly urge us to form a new crusade and launch a war to invade America."
?Carlos expressed his concerns.
Yes, the people in Europe are relatively simple now. Now that Satan has come to the church, this matter is almost the same.
The people of Europe are quite afraid of the Lord of Hell.
In order to prevent themselves from being harmed by demons and devils, they might actually cause such a trend.
And when that time comes, how should the church deal with itself?
You know, Europe is now in chaos, and the Spanish Empire, the military power the church relies on, has been defeated again.
The military armed forces of the Habsburg princely states were once again caught up in the war between Portugal, France and Protestantism.
If the people of Europe really made such a request Alas! (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!) - Didn't finish reading?
