"Bai Ying, first ask someone to arrange some food for them. Just sit down and sit as comfortable as you want." The emperor's interest in listening to the story was very high. His expression did not look like a supreme being who rules a country. He was just like a hobby.
The ordinary citizen who peeks into people's privacy: "Tell me, tell me in detail! If you agree, you will be rewarded. If what you say is untrue and adds jealousy, you will be severely punished!"
Bai Ying asked the guards outside the hall to bring a light meal, and moved in a few low tables. After putting them together, this nondescript ancient lecture platform was completed - half of it was filled with food and water, and the other half was filled with books; both sides were filled with books.
The ancient lecturer sat on the floor with his legs crossed and was shocked, but the listener was condescending, with his feet spread apart in contentment, and the soles of his feet stepped on the edge of the table.
"As you just said, the princess of the Dark Demon Clan came to the Divine Palace to meet the first Divine Blessing Knight. This kind of thing can be detected by the ascetic priest and the local temple." The two of them drank several drinks in a row.
After drinking a glass of water and completely recovering his emotions, Cohen began to speak: "However, if something like adultery happened between the Demon Clan Princess and the Divine Knight, neither the ascetic priest nor the local temple would be able to detect it. Then,
Where do you draw your inferences from?"
"What your Majesty said is a general situation. Of course, if ordinary people inquire about this kind of thing, they will not be able to see it from a distance, but if they are too close, they will be in danger of being discovered." Faced with Cohen's questioning, one of the priests replied
Said: "The Demon Clan Princess and the Divine Blessing Knight are both powerful beings. They are more likely to find the people following them, so it is impossible to get close and spy on them."
"But Your Majesty doesn't understand people like ascetic priests. Of course, ascetic priests have long since disappeared, so it's normal for Your Majesty not to understand." The two priests cooperated in a tacit understanding. As soon as one finished speaking, the other's voice immediately rang out:
"In order to show the loyalty of their faith, the ascetic priests never reveal their identity as priests outside the paradise island, nor do they act alone. In fact, during their travels, each ascetic priest brought ten to thirty people with him.
Disciples with different names, these people are of different ages, and their professions of concealing their identities are also different."
"Why do you think the more you listen, the more you sound like a spy?" Cohen frowned and said, "Do they have the responsibilities of a spy?"
"They have no duty as spies. It's all because the ascetic priests are too loyal to their beliefs. Therefore, this incident is purely a coincidence." The priest on the left replied: "It is precisely because of this incident that this last one is destined.
The ascetic priest disappeared. Because the temple realized that no matter how loyal the faith is, it is a very dangerous state if it is not under control..."
"Stop, let's talk about the Demon Clan Princess and the Divine Blessing Knight first. How did the ascetic priest find out that they were cheating?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, according to the record in this book, the ascetic priest arrived at the scene one day after discovering the strange appearance of the demons. After confirming the traces left on the scene, the ascetic priest decided to follow up on the matter. Therefore,
While he sounded the alarm to the local temple, he sent his disciples to the surrounding areas, casting a net to look for clues..."
The priest on the left opened the scroll, and the priest on the right looked for other information from the pile of books for supporting evidence.
"Because the character and habits of the first Divine Blessing Knight are somewhat unique, it is not difficult to find clues if you are willing to look for them. For example, it is recorded in this historical material that the Divine Blessing Knight will be chased at any time, even if he is being chased.
Even before he died, he wore exactly the same attire and never changed it. Then, there are also relevant records in the records of the ascetic priests: 'For powerful beings, they firmly believe that strength is the most effective means to crack all conspiracies.
, so they never changed their costumes to carry out their pride...' Five days later, his disciples finally found them on the coast of the Pota Empire."
"The coast of the Pota Empire?" Cohen first tried a few times in his pitiful Bisi geographical memory, but to no avail, so he asked calmly: "What are these two bastards doing there?"
"Your Majesty, the world thousands of years ago was very different from today. We talk about the Pota Empire just to make it easier for Your Majesty to understand. In fact, there was no Pota Empire at that time. There were thirty-three under the Divine Alliance.
Empire. The one who owns this coastline is a small empire called Saint Hayes... The records of the ascetic priests mentioned that they temporarily lived in a place called 'Xiahui Castle' for three days..."
The priest on the left pointed his hand, and the priest on the right immediately handed over several unofficial histories and other books.
"Your Majesty, this is a biographical novel at that time. It is on the catalog banned by the Temple of Light. A large part of the plot is about this section of the coast, and it even mentions Xiahui Castle." A beautifully bound book
The book was carefully placed in front of Cohen, and the priest's finger pointed somewhere: "This was one of the most beautiful places on God's land at that time, where direct members of the royal families of various countries spent their honeymoons..."
"The place where we spent our honeymoon." Cohen's thoughts spread, and he suddenly shuddered, and then questioned: "It's just a location, it doesn't mean anything, it's not even direct evidence!"
"Of course it's not enough direct evidence, because this is just one aspect. So, Your Majesty, please read this paragraph." The priest nodded and returned his finger to the metal scroll: "After the ascetic priest arrived, the pursuing disciples had already followed.
Set off towards their goal. Taking advantage of this period of time, the ascetic priest conducted a detailed investigation in the local area, and found that the demon princess had made more than ten sets of clothes in Xiahui Castle like a newlywed bride, and even the Divine Blessing Knight himself also
I bought a set of wedding clothes... In order to make the evidence more complete, the ascetic priest wrote down all the data of these clothes."
"Your Majesty, this book is a special sculptor's manual for the Dark Demon Palace. It was only published ninety years ago. It is extremely rare. It contains data on sculpting the statue of the demon princess. We scaled down these data and compared them with the records of the ascetic priests.
Comparatively...the results are completely consistent."
"The second book is the Biography of the Divine Blessed Knight published by the Temple of Light. Of course, after his fall, this book was also banned. But the records about the Divine Blessed Knight - at least the parts that everyone can see, such as height,
The shoulder width, arm length, etc. are completely real and we have compared them and the results are consistent."
"Well..." Cohen sneered twice: "Everyone has to wear clothes, or maybe the Demon Clan Princess thinks the wedding clothes of the gods are beautiful, so she can just pick up a few and wear them..."
"Well, Your Majesty, it is of course difficult for us to guess the thoughts of the Demon Clan Princess, but one thing is certain, that is, the wedding suits at that time were not inlaid with gems and used as family heirlooms like today." The priest on the right replied.
Said: "At that time, people's understanding of marriage was different from now. This type of wedding and honeymoon suits were not gorgeous and elegant, and the workmanship was not particularly meticulous. They would usually get damaged after wearing them several times. Ten sets of dresses can be worn for a month, and a wedding
The couple went on vacation for a month, so it was called honeymoon..."
"So, the Demon Clan Princess intends to wear the ten dresses she bought immediately, and it is unlikely that they were brought back to Hell Island?" Cohen nodded: "Considering from this perspective, it is reasonable to say
It works...but I always feel like something is missing."
"The only bridge leading to their villa suddenly broke when they arrived, and it was repaired five days later. If you add that the two of them only used one honeymoon suite, the food ingredients and wine for the honeymoon banquet, plus
Flowers that can fill the room..." The priest's evidence was thrown out one after another, and it was too strict: "Does Your Majesty still feel that something is missing?"
"I don't think there's anything missing, but I'm a little confused now, because these factors are so concentrated that it's confusing." Cohen touched his chin and thought in his mind: "According to general principles, even preparation
No matter how perfect a wedding is, there will still be some flaws due to some reasons, but these two bastards are both aloof and not very good at living, how could they make their honeymoon so perfect?"
"Like Your Majesty, we also had such doubts during the verification process, but not at this time, but later." The priest on the left sighed and said slowly: "In the later records,
The Demon Clan Princess and the Divine Blessing Knight walked along the golden route, making love to their concubines and enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, until they arrived near the Dalon Snow Mountain in the current Liva Empire. They had such a honeymoon three times in total, and they had a lot of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
It is getting richer and richer every time... We have verified in many ways that the records of the ascetic priests are all true, and there are many details that cannot be falsified even if they are intentional."
"Now that you have such sufficient evidence and doubts, what conclusion do you draw?"
"This, especially when combined with the situation at the top of the Temple of Light at that time, it's hard for us to say..." The two priests looked at each other, both looking a little uneasy.
Cohen knew that their reactions were not directed at him, and that there must be something that truly frightened them. Unfortunately, Cohen did not have enough time, so he had to make them speak out more quickly.
"Really?" So, Emperor Sibia let his eyes become colder and said, "Is it really difficult to say?"
"We..." The haze in Emperor Sibia's eyes made the two priests feel cold and cold, and they finally stammered in reply: "We think that the reason why they want the demon princess and the Divine Blessing Knight is
In fact, she did this on purpose...especially from the perspective of the Demon Clan Princess, she did it deliberately to show someone...a bit like she was trying to get angry..."
With a sound of "Pa!", Cohen struck with his palms, interrupting the priest's words. In their surprised eyes, he pointed at the priest on the left: "From now on, you are my personal attendant, called Zuo Shiyi."
." Then he flicked his finger and pointed at the other person: "You are the right picker." Then he nodded slightly: "Continue."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The two of them were refreshed, and they shouted the word "Your Majesty" with unprecedented confidence!
"The reason why we made this judgment is based on two reasons." After a while of scrambling, new circumstantial evidence was placed in front of Cohen: "First, the time when the demon princess came was very strange. According to the light at the time
The temple records that during that time, the only member of the Light Clan who could directly detect and prevent this incident—our eldest princess was being banned."
"What does being banned by the God Clan's eldest princess have to do with stopping this matter?" Cohen was stunned: "What about the God of War and the like?"
"Both the God of War and the God of Martial have the right to descend, but it's hard to say whether they can notice it immediately. Even if they notice it, they can't interfere in matters of the level of the Demon Clan's Princess. Going further, the God of Light
The king and the demon clan eldest princess are obviously not on the same level, they are just like elders, and of course they are not suitable to deal with such matters personally..."
"In other words, during the period when the eldest princess was banned from the Light God Clan, there was a gap in the affairs of the Demon Clan?"
"Your Majesty is not wrong in saying that. This is the fact." Xinjin Zuo Shiyi muttered "break" a few times and continued: "The second reason is that the Demon Clan's eldest princess seems to have only one more princess than the other princesses.
The word, but it happens to be this word, marks a strict hierarchy - and the classes of gods and demons are almost completely corresponding, so the most direct competitor of the eldest princess of the demon clan is the eldest princess of our god clan
My lords, it is their bounden duty to become each other's rivals."
Cohen rested his head on the soft backrest and asked softly: "So?"
"So, the Demon Clan's eldest princess can't do this for others to see. All her actions are directed at the God Clan's eldest princess!" At this point, You Shiyi used a positive tone: "
The glorious official position of God's Blessed Knight, from the proposal to implementation, was the intention of the eldest princess of the divine clan. The eldest princess of the demon clan ruined all this, largely to embarrass her, making her feel uncomfortable but powerless!"
"Is all this really just based on competition?" Cohen sighed for no reason: "Let the eldest princess of the God clan embarrass you, feel uncomfortable but can't do anything about it?"
"Or...please forgive me..." Zuo Shiyi unknowingly committed the old habit of hesitating to speak, so he complained: "The first Divine Blessing Knight, the eldest princess of the God Clan, is particularly favored.
I don’t know how much better your majesty is today... Your Majesty, she not only made the armor with her own hands and presided over the ceremony with her own hands, but also brought him from afar on the eve of the canonization ceremony...that...that word, we really can’t say it!"
"I already understand." Emperor Sibia nodded, and the muscles on his face twitched: "To put it bluntly, it's like two ferocious female creatures fighting for a mate, right?"
The people left and right were speechless, looking back at the emperor helplessly and innocently. The scene was inevitably silent.
"Looking at it this way, this matter is indeed very suspicious, and it is very involved." Cohen stood up and walked around the hall twice: "Continue, how will things develop next?"
"According to the usual practice, the Demon Clan Princess and the Divine Blessing Knight separated after a few days of playing in the Dagon Snow Mountain. When the ascetic priest tracked down the Dagon Snow Mountain, the Divine Blessing Knight had already gone to a certain temple of light to report on his duties...
...This was the last time he reported on his duties before the Divine Blessing Knight was demonized." Zuo Shiyi replied: "After that, the Divine Blessing Knight crossed the dividing line between gods and demons and went to the largest dark demon temple in the Demonic Alliance alone... until he was alone.
Arriving at Hell Island, he was completely demonized."
"When he knelt down in front of the princess of the dark demon clan, the first divine knight no longer existed. Although he still had the same body, his inner soul was replaced by the demon of killing..." Although he had already been with the demon clan for a long time.
He bid farewell as a red priest, but when You Shiyi talked about this matter, there was still deep regret in his voice: "Between the Dark Demon Clan and the Light God Clan, this is the first time that there is an asymmetrical member setting.
, and it has become a tradition and has been preserved..."
"This means that the dark demons will never choose a killing demon in the demon attribute?" Cohen turned around: "Whenever the Divine Blessing Knight is born, will it be directly demonized?"
"That is indeed the case, Your Majesty." The scavengers nodded.
"But there are also people who became Divine Blessing Knights with me. Why haven't I heard that they are also in trouble?"
"It's like this, Your Majesty. Since that incident, there have been not one Divine Blessing Knight, but at least four, in order to avoid more embarrassing things. And after the unknown negotiations between the Gods and the Demons,
, the demon clan only selects one Divine Blessing Knight to be demonized at a time, and no matter whether it is successful or not, the target will not be changed." Zuo Shiyi explained: "When Your Majesty became the Divine Blessing Knight, it happened to be a very special period..."
"What's so special about it?"
"At that time, the Temple of Light completely suppressed the imperial power of various empires, and His Majesty also knew that the Divine Blessing Knights had a great advantage over the priests. Of course, the Temple hoped that there would be as few Divine Blessing Knights as possible." Right Supplement replied: "So, the four gods
There are three members of the royal family among the Blessed Knights. They are all very likely to become emperors. When they ascend the throne, they will hand over the power of the Divine Blessed Knights. The reason why three members of the royal family are given is because the minimum quota for each term is four.
If all of them are given to the heir to the imperial power, the temple’s intentions will be known to all passers-by.”
"I understand." Cohen nodded: "I, a divine knight who is not a royal family, have become the one who attracts firepower invisibly? So the demons came to me?"
"Not necessarily. It's just that considering His Majesty's character at that time, he would probably be revoked from the title of Divine Blessing Knight due to his bad behavior." Unexpectedly, the two relics shook their heads: "If this title is awarded to someone else, it will be very difficult for him to do so."
Years, twenty years later, the Divine Blessing Knights who have developed power will be a great threat to the Temple of Light..."
"That's why I was assigned to the Ninth Legion and why I encountered so many vomiting of blood?" Cohen was quite surprised: "All of this is because the Temple of Light wants me to cause trouble so that I can be caught.
My pigtails and then strip me of my title?”
"I'm afraid... that's it..." Zuo Shiyi nodded awkwardly: "As for how the Dark Demon Clan chose Your Majesty, and how the Light God Clan has always tolerated Your Majesty, we can't know... not even us.
The two men were not sentenced to death after their crimes were exposed, but were assigned to His Majesty for disposal. This is unprecedented."
"Banana, you watermelon, it turns out the truth is like this!" Cohen cursed bitterly: "I really love everyone, and flowers bloom when they see you!"
"Your Majesty, there is one thing, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to deal with it carefully." Seeing that Cohen's evil fire was rising and might burn to the head of himself, who was once a red priest, Zuo Shiyi quickly changed the topic: "Towards the dark demon clan
Generally speaking, once the target of demonization is selected, no matter what happens, they will carry out the demonization to the end..."
"Continue to be demonized?" Cohen, who was spinning in circles, suddenly turned around: "I am already the emperor!"
"Even if you become the emperor, it's... the same..." After looking at Cohen's face, You Shiyi finished the second half of the sentence with a sad face: "Your Majesty, this matter is... there is a precedent!"
Hearing this, Cohen was stunned for a moment, then sneered.
Cold laughter echoed in the empty hall, making people pick up leftovers and tremble with fear. (To be continued)
