...

Wu Hui immediately walked out of the Grand Master's Tower, and found a quiet place in the forest outside to stop. Then, with a thought, a picture suddenly appeared in his mind.

In the solemn and solemn temple, Catherine, the Holy Maiden of Light, was kneeling in front of the statue and praying in a low voice, with a hint of anger in her expression.

The Holy Maiden of Light has become more and more introverted recently, and if she can be angered, it seems that the matter should be quite serious.

With a thought in Wu Hui's mind, the statue of Guangming on the shrine suddenly emitted a faint white radiance. At the same time, a magnificent divine voice also appeared in the mind of the Holy Maiden of Guangming: "What's the matter?"

"Report to my lord."

The holy goddess of light was overjoyed, and hurriedly prostrated herself in front of the shrine respectfully, her blue eyes were full of enthusiasm: "It's like this..."

After listening to the narration of the Holy Maiden of Light, Wu Hui finally understood what happened.

It turned out that the Holy See's preaching in the Thorn Territory encountered problems.

The Territory of Thorns is an earldom, with 3 viscounty territories, 21 baronial territories, and 92 knightly territories under its jurisdiction. It covers a vast area and has a population close to 300,000.

However, there are many people and many lords, which means that the lords have more thoughts.

As Black Leighton succeeded the Earl of Thornland, he promulgated a series of policies beneficial to the Holy See. At the same time, he opened up the entire Thornland and allowed the Holy See to preach within the Thornland. Holy See missionary.

But there are so many lords in the Thorn Territory, and there are only a few who really welcome the Holy See from the bottom of their hearts. Most noble lords do not want the Holy See to preach in their territory for their own authority and interests.

They didn't dare to reject the new Earl Black's executive order, but it was unavoidable to obey.

It has happened before that noble lords hired people to attend the preaching meeting of the Holy See. A bunch of extras performed enthusiastically, coaxing the priest who went to preach to think that the preaching effect was very good, and left happily Anything related to the Holy See.

If the pastor hadn't noticed something strange when he went to the countryside to care for the common people and popularized the knowledge of plague prevention, he probably wouldn't have discovered this matter.

Although examples like this are rare, overt and covert obstructions abound.

However, these are all expected things, and the Holy Maiden of Light is fully capable of handling them, so naturally she will not use them to disturb the God of Light. What really angered the Holy Maiden of Light was another thing that happened afterwards.

Just today, a pastor was attacked on his way back from preaching in the countryside!

If it wasn't for the fact that the priest had the magic scrolls and magic items bestowed by God in his hands, and he could heal himself with divine magic, he probably wouldn't be able to come back.

"My lord, those nobles are used to being superior. If you don't teach them a lesson, I'm afraid they won't remember it long. I don't know how many troubles they will cause in the future."

Recalling the bloody and dying appearance of the pastor when he came back just now, her heart seemed to be on fire, and the anger rose up slowly: "My lord, I apply, and the noble lord who shot Arrest them and parade them in the streets, and burn them to the stake in public, so as to make an example of others.”

"These noble lords should indeed be taught a lesson."

Wu Hui also felt annoyed.

After taking down the earldom this time, the reason why he didn't forcefully suppress it by force was because he wanted to give these little nobles a chance. If they were sensible, it would save him a little trouble.

Unfortunately, it turned out that he still underestimated the arrogance of these nobles.

How could the nobles, who are used to controlling the wind and rain in the territory, allow the Holy See to shake their authority?

Today it was just a sneak attack. Next time, maybe it will be a blatant attack.

This wind must not last long!

"Thank you, my lord." The Holy Maiden of Light took a deep breath and calmed down a little, "I have already sent someone to investigate, and I believe we will soon find out who did it. When someone is caught, immediately There will be a public trial.”

"Can."

Wu Hui stood with his back against the big tree, squinting at the shadow of the whirling tree shaking in front of him, his mind was racing, and a few thoughts flashed quickly.

He knew that the idea of ​​the Holy Maiden of Light was correct. Killing chickens to scare monkeys is a very effective means at this time.

But he felt that was not enough.

Since chickens are to be killed, it is natural to maximize the effect, and a public trial is not enough.

Anyway, he is also a person who traveled from the earth. The biggest advantage of Earthlings over local natives is that even ordinary Earthlings have far more education than ordinary nobles.

What's more, the earth is still in the era of information explosion, many people have never eaten pork, and have seen pigs run. It is enough to use some tricks and imitate one or two tricks from previous historical dramas.

With his thoughts flying, the thoughts in Wu Hui's mind quickly became clear, and he immediately issued an oracle to the Holy Maiden of Light: "Notify Black, send an invitation letter to all the nobles in Thorn Leader, and say three days later The god-tainted statue in the monastery will be settled in the Bright Cathedral of Thorn City, and they are invited to go to the cathedral to watch the ceremony. If someone does not come, they will be punished as despising the power of the gods and despising the authority of the nobility."

"I understand. Follow the oracle of my lord."

The Holy Maiden of Light's eyes lit up, and she understood the beauty of this move almost instantly.

To kill chickens to scare monkeys, of course monkeys have to watch on the spot.

...

A few days later, Thorn City.

There used to be a fountain square in the north of the city, and beside the square stood a magnificent Cathedral of Light.

According to the specifications of the main city of thorns, the Holy See has already established a bishop-level branch here. Before the fall of the Bright Holy See, there were a lot of people here, and there were like clouds of pilgrims.

However, since the decline of the Bright Holy See, the population here has gradually become scarcer.

Following the emperor's abolished decree, all places began to encircle and suppress the believers of the light. Ordinary civilians did not even dare to get close because they were afraid of being mistaken for the remnants of the light, and detoured away from a distance.

After that, the Guangming Cathedral gradually disappeared, completely reduced to a playground for snakes, rats and ants.

However, with the resurgence of the Holy See of Light and the issuance of the first decree of the fanatic Blake, this place that had been occupied by snakes, insects, rats and ants was once again full of vitality.

The tall arches and columns have been carefully repaired, the exquisite statues and murals have also been restored by skilled craftsmen, and the inside and outside of the church have been thoroughly cleaned over and over again, and there is no half spider web to be found.

At this moment, the entire cathedral has taken on a new look, majestic and solemn, just like in the past.

The long stone steps are white and smooth, and every step, every step, seems to be imprinted with the traces of the years, and there are silent vicissitudes.

The towering spire pierces into the sky, and every piece of exquisite stone carving and every piece of the most common stone tile on it seems to have holy light flowing, telling the glory and glory of the past.

This bright cathedral is the place where the lawless nobles will be judged this time. At the same time, it is also the place where all the invited nobles gather.

early morning.

The clear morning light enveloped the entire Cathedral of Light. The fountain on the square starts working on time. When the sun shines, the splashing water droplets will reflect a clear colorful halo, setting up mini rainbows one after another among the white angel stone carvings with wings, dreamy and holy.

At this moment, the sound of "wheels" rolling ruts sounded, and one carriage after another slowly drove into the square.

Immediately afterwards, aristocratic lords wearing noble uniforms got off the carriage and gathered in the square.

Some of these aristocratic gentlemen were acquainted with each other, and some had bad relations. They unknowingly divided into many small circles, gathered together, and secretly communicated with each other.

Marcus Jeffrey is the only Viscount in Thorn Territory other than members of the Raymond family. He has been a retainer of the Raymond family since a hundred years ago. He usually guards the viscount land handed down by his family and lives like an emperor, not to mention how carefree he is.

He is also one of the most unhappy people about the series of new policies promulgated by the new Earl.

Originally, as the lord, he had the right to be the first night of all the girls in the territory, and no matter how beautiful a girl was, she had to wait for him to enjoy it before getting her husband. If she felt satisfied after enjoying it, she would stay and be his lover, and her husband would not dare to say anything.

As a result, the Holy See of Light directly abolished the right of the first night when it came, and took part of his tax revenue to dedicate to the God of Light, which directly affected his quality of life. How could he bear it?

Over the past few days, relying on his own strength, he has over a thousand private soldiers, and he has done many things, such as detaining taxes that should be dedicated to God.

He also didn't take the Earl's call this time at all.

The new Earl has no foundation in the Thorn Territory, and it is impossible to fully control the Raymond family's army in a short period of time. He thinks that he has no need to be afraid of him.

However, considering that he is an earl after all, and the Duke of St. Violet is behind him, he reluctantly gave him a little face and came here for a formality.

Just as Marcus Jeffrey glanced around after getting off the carriage, a group of little nobles had already surrounded him.

"Viscount Marcus, may the Lord of Light bless you."

The little nobles surrounded Marcus with obsequious smiles, speaking in praise of the God of Light, but with a tacit expression on their faces.

These little nobles, like Marcus, do not welcome the lords of the Holy See of Light. They usually discuss in secret how to fool the priests of the Holy See of Light, or discuss how to make trouble secretly.

"My lord, Viscount Marcus, in my opinion, there is probably a reason why the Holy See of Guangming made this statue settlement ceremony this time. People in the Holy See are always good at superficial tricks, so maybe they are planning something secretly~" A person who had already The elderly nobleman suddenly approached Marcus Jeffrey and said meaningfully.

"Heh~ it's just some remnants. If you make a fuss again, can it turn the world upside down?" Marcus snorted disapprovingly, "Don't worry, they will suffer the consequences sooner or later if they preach so recklessly. As long as you don't jump Come out and take the initiative to pick things up, and after a while, someone will naturally clean them up."

"Yes yes yes~ Viscount Marcus has a great plan, we listen to you."

A group of little nobles immediately felt relieved when they heard the words, and there was a burst of flattery around them.

Listening to their fancy flattery, Marcus casually stroked the two mustaches on his mouth, and inadvertently remembered his previous arrangement.

The Holy See must have known about the attack on the little pastor, but there has been no movement until now. There must be other plans. This time it was obvious that they were invited to watch the ceremony, maybe it was for this matter.

I don't know, has the thing that I deliberately asked people to leave at the scene been found? How does the Holy See plan to deal with it?

If everything is as expected, then today will be lively~

While speaking, there was a sudden exclamation from a distance.

Marcus Jeffrey turned his head and looked, his eyes lit up instantly.

On the side of the square, there was a squad of knights with only ten people riding in a neat queue. Those knights were all young girls aged sixteen or seventeen, with good looks and graceful figures, and the light armor on their bodies completely highlighted their proud curves. From a distance, they looked heroic and valiant, which made people's hearts flutter endlessly.

Not only that, the horses they ride on are not ordinary horses, but winged flying horses, tall and straight, with strong muscles, snow-white manes that are as translucent as frost and snow in the sun, and white pierced ears The wings exude wisps of holy light, an indescribable steed.

Riding on such a Pegasus, those girl knights seemed to be shrouded in a layer of holy light, and there was a little more holy flavor out of thin air, making them look even more attractive.
