Chapter 729 The Cursed King
If you have been to the Vatican, you will find that the pope’s guard is Swiss. The Swiss guard became the guard of the Vatican since the beginning of the 16th century. In June 1505, the then Pope Yulio II brought 200 strong Swiss mercenaries to Rome and decided to let them guard the Vatican.
Switzerland is picturesque, and at the same time traffic is blocked. Good places have long been reclaimed into rural towns. Only places that are not suitable for human habitation can maintain their natural state.
The financial source of Switzerland after independence was men from all over the country who went abroad as mercenaries and sent their money back to the country. In May 1527, the Holy Roman Empire led an army to invade Rome and wreak havoc and killing on the city of Rome. There is a secret passage in the ancient wall connecting the Pope’s Palace and Castel Sant’Angelo—"Passetto". Pope Clemens VII asked the guards to guard the palace and ordered the secret passage to be opened and escape to the city of San Angelo. Take refuge. At that time, in order to protect the life of the Pope, many guards sacrificed. The original 189 guards were left with only 42 guards. Twenty years after this incident, Pope Paul III not only resurrected the guards that were not available at the time, but also increased the number of guards to 225.
Colonel Lupen, the new captain of the guards, reorganized the Swiss Guards. With a passionate and loyal temperament, he formulated a strict guard system and expelled all non-Swiss guards from the guards, including married Italian women and living in Italy. Descendants of the Swiss Guards.
It is well known that Swiss Bank is the safest bank in the world. Guess how much money the Vatican has deposited in Swiss Bank?
Swiss can make the banking and manufacturing industry top-notch because they know that if they do not do well, they have to carry guns on the battlefield like the current Africans and Middle Easterners.
Switzerland had a rare act of justice in the history of the world. At that time, because of the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Liechtenstein, as a dependent country, was left unattended. Switzerland stepped up to form an alliance with Liechtenstein to provide diplomatic and defense protection. Switzerland itself is precarious. It could have been left alone, but they still provide protection to Liechtenstein. As we all know, Liechtenstein is the richest royal family in Europe. Guess how much money they have deposited in Swiss banks?
Switzerland is one of the few permanent neutral countries with no blood debts, and also Venice. Their old enemy Genoa is now owned by France. The French hunting down the Templars is well known.
If Venice protects the lives and property of the Knights Templar, it is also a kind of righteous act. In the past, the League of Christ and the Ottoman Empire also dedicated everything when they were fighting for the supremacy of the Mediterranean. More importantly, the Swiss bank was involved in the ** gold scandal. Inside, this has had a serious impact on their reputation. The Swiss bank not only used anonymous accounts to absorb Jewish deposits, but also used its identity as a neutral country to conduct countless secret transactions with ** Germany. The Bank Secrecy Act made Wealth in a Swiss bank is as reliable as it is in a safe. But another problem immediately arises: if a depositor deposits a large sum of money anonymously in a Swiss bank, and then suddenly passes away, he did not give the bank a will during his lifetime, and he did not have the opportunity to tell his family the deposit password when he died. This deposit of s will stay in the Swiss bank forever and cannot be withdrawn.
Even the devil can't collect debts from the witch who died suddenly at the Devil’s Bridge after making a deal with him.
There are not a few countries that want to become a "Swiss Bank". The New York Bank of the United States is UBS’s biggest competitor. However, the US real estate bubble blows bigger than Venice, a sea-bubble city. The crisis is also a business opportunity. If Venice can once again become a business opportunity Permanently neutral countries, instead of Swiss banks as a financial center, they do not need to rely on tourism and tourists to boost the economy.
European Catholics call the Pope "Papa". As long as he deposits his money in the Bank of Venice, he can call "Papa" as many times as possible.
"Papa", "Papa", "Papa".
European wealthy people like to go to Venice to participate in film festivals. Those flashing lights are like stars in the sky.
Compared with the place in Switzerland, the coquettish charm of Venice is more in line with their tastes. If the Pope’s personal guard is replaced by an Italian, whether he is Naples or Sicily, after all, Italy is now a unified country, that would also be a victory.
The Corsican Napoleon did have reason to be afraid of the lions in the East. How many years ago the Knights Templar happened, who remembers them?
However, the assets transferred by the Knights Templar were all real gold and silver. On the evening of March 22, 1314, on a small island on the Seine in Paris, Jacques de Molay, the head of the Knights Templar, was taken by King Philip IV of France. Tied to the torture frame and slowly burned to death with fire.
Then Count Gichet de Boge set up a "pure architect" organization. He asked the King of France for permission to bury Morlay's body in another place, and the King agreed.
So using the coffin of Jacques de Molay, Boge took the opportunity to take the treasures of gold, silver, and gems from the large pillars of the Knights Templar church and moved them to a safe place. None of these "architects" claimed to be members of the Free Stonemason Alliance, and there is no evidence to prove it.
Shakespeare once said: I wish those rumors were as unreliable as the rumors of an old lady who had nothing to do after eating, chewing ginger, or pretending to be crying for the death of her third husband with a nose and tears.
The rumors stop at the wise. Who wants to be a fool who believes everything?
The Knights Templar has its own unique set of mysterious symbols, which use this symbol and secret religious rituals to hide and retrieve their treasures.
Why do Venetians choose November 21 as a health festival, and even people in the city hold religious ceremonies?
There can be many reasons for this. I was in a good mood that day, or everyone was free, but there is also such a possibility. On November 21, 164 BC, Judas Maccabee rebuilt the temple, and the Jews later designated it as another day. Commemorate the temple festival.
The full name of the Knights Templar is "the poor knights of the Temple of Christ and Solomon", and Judas Maccabee rebuilt the Second Temple in Jerusalem.
The Temple of Jerusalem was the highest place of worship for the ancient Israelites. Since the temple of Solomon was built in Jerusalem in the 10th century, Jerusalem has always been the center of the Jewish faith and the holiest city. It immediately became a place of worship for God and a symbol of the nation of Israel. This temple was the first temple.
On August 16, 586 BC, King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon destroyed Jerusalem and the First Temple was destroyed.
The second time it was destroyed by the Roman Empire General Titus in 70 AD. The most holy place in the Jerusalem Temple before the destruction contained the Ark of the Covenant, which is the most sacred place in Judaism. Only the high priest is qualified once a year. Entering the most holy place, this cabinet is missing.
Napoleon took away the wedding in Ghana, and even if the Louvre returned the paintings later, there was no end to the matter.
He has attacked a permanently neutral country. Who will fight Switzerland now? **None of that!
It’s not a big deal for a Venetian girl to fall in love with an Austrian guy, but because of this relationship, it’s the same as Romeo and Juliet. The guy was killed by the girl’s family. If it wasn’t for the girl to find a witch, she would have committed suicide like Juliet. .
This story happened after the 18th century, only two hundred years ago.
According to legend, the head of the Knights Templar cursed and cursed King Philip IV and Pope Clement V before his death, saying that they would face eternal judgment within a year.
Sure enough, Pope Clement V died of a sudden illness one month later, while another cursed person, the "beautiful man" Philip IV, died suddenly while hunting six months later.
The King of France at the time wanted to attack the Knights Templar and confiscate its wealth to supplement the increasingly embarrassing financial expenditure.
Since the head of Jacques de Molay was killed and the Knights Templar were brutally suppressed by France and other countries, the Knights Templar and France and other countries have become feuds, and the Knights Templar is one of the industries of England, the London Temple Church. It was also transferred to the Ambulance Order.
The Order of Ambulance was a military order that enjoyed great fame with the Templars during the Crusades and had conflicts from time to time. It was also known as the Order of Malta because it stuck to the island of Malta after the fall of Jerusalem.
The Ambulance Order rented the Temple Church to lawyers until Henry VIII took over it.
The three knights who participated in the Crusade had a holy purpose at the beginning, such as poverty-saving, medical care, rescue, etc. They probably didn’t expect that they would really understand what role they were playing when they arrived in the war zone.
They became rich, but they were not redeemed because of this. The gold was all with human blood.
Monica and Ali Sandro’s family is very ordinary, not very rich, but very happy. If they really plan to participate in this game, Pomona has a way to make them win, but they may be very I miss the time when I went to Uncle Fabio's house to eat with my cheeks.
She is not Lily. Lily will protect Severus from being bullied by rich young masters like James Potter and Sirius Black, but the boy who has been protected cannot become stronger.
She is a cruel person, but she is not completely broken, so God made her a woman, thinking a lot but lacking the ability to act, looking for a sense of identity in the wrong people, and finally no recognition, and finally ended up in this End.
On March 5, 2005, she leaned on the pierced glass window to watch Venice bathed in the morning light. Now the city has just woke up, and there are only a few ships sailing on the Grand Canal.
She fully enjoyed her freedom in less than a day, and then was bound by an invisible chain again. She really missed the Slytherin boy who was always bullied.
The well-dressed Severus had birds, snakes and cockroaches piled up on his arms. He still wore a cloak and dressed as a wizard. After putting on the mask, he was no different from the Muggles in the carnival.
"Let's go, don't let them wait long."
She didn’t want to listen to his orders.
"Do you want to stay at home with me all day?"
He didn't threaten her, but she gave up resistance and grabbed his arm.
So they left the bedroom they hadn't left for three days, walked to the atrium, and apparated under the grace of the two house elves.
