Chapter 221 Spirit and faith return to God, worldliness and body return to the King! (Please subscribe)
[Hadera Tower] In the royal capital, in a luxurious council hall, after listening to the report of his subordinates, the handsome second prince suddenly and violently threw all the flower pots and oak wine glasses on the table to the ground.
He cursed angrily.
"Damn it...damn it! Damn Harold, damn William!"
All the attendants present lowered their heads fearfully, not daring to respond. Only an old man with white hair and beard remained calm, looking at the glass in his hand, waiting for the prince's anger to be vented, and then he said indifferently.
Said out loud.
"Don't worry so much, Hattar, things are not as bad as you think."
"But, Master Anthony, Harold won the favor of almost all the nobles at that banquet, and of course, my good father King Bazel..."
Having said this, Hattar's expression became distorted.
In order to outshine his brother Harold at this birthday party, he went to great lengths to find a very rare crystal stone and asked a master sculptor to engrave the most glorious image of his father when he conquered the enemy country.
The meritorious deeds are engraved into a lifelike picture of a character.
However, just when he thought he could shine at the banquet, that damn Harold actually presented a rare treasure called a glass mirror, which attracted everyone's attention almost instantly.
So much so that during the entire banquet, he was like a funny clown, being left aside and no one cared about him at all.
How could this not make him feel humiliated!
"Hatar, you need to remember what those people who support you are doing. They will not deviate from their own interests just because of a so-called rare treasure." Anthony said, gently placing the glass in his hand.
on the desktop.
"As for your father, King Bazel, I think Harold's offering of the round mirror will only have the opposite effect..."
Hattar looked at Anthony in confusion.
"Because Harold did something very stupid. Even before the banquet, he couldn't wait to give another round mirror to the cardinal of the kingdom. What do you think your good father would think?" Anthony's expression
reminded calmly.
Hattar paused for a moment and quickly understood what Anthony meant. His father, King Bazel, had devoted his life to the consolidation of royal power.
Harold's act of presenting the round mirror to Cardinal Lossac undoubtedly once again stirred up the thorn in King Bazel's heart.
There are also those nobles who are nominally the controllers of various territories, but in fact the words of the archbishops are far more effective than their decrees. This makes many great nobles extremely resentful, but they dare not speak out in anger.
However, his brother Harold made sure that in order to win the throne for himself, he was extremely courteous to the cardinal. I personally could see that if Harold became king, the power of the Holy See would only be greater than before.
The nobles who supported them simply hoped that after he became king, he would be able to restrict the various privileges of the priests to a certain extent.
Thinking of this, Hattar calmed down again, but there was still some worry on his face. "Master Anthony, what if the cardinal really supports Harold unequivocally?"
This is also the issue that worries him the most. Although they are born with extraordinary power relying on the blood of the royal family, even his father, King Bazel, cannot compete with a cardinal.
The only person in the entire king's capital who can truly compete with the cardinal is Anthony, who is the great wizard, but he obviously cannot take action easily, otherwise it will only attract the siege of the Holy See...
"This is the worst case scenario." Anthony's expression also became a little more solemn.
Although there has always been a saying in the Holy See that the spirit and faith belong to God, and the world and body belong to the king, these are just words to comfort the nobles.
"Then what should we do now?" Hattar asked rather annoyed.
"I heard that the two round mirrors and the glass products that have appeared on the market recently are all the work of Viscount William. Maybe we can start here and find out where the other party obtained this rare ore." Anthony pondered.
He said.
He was also very interested in this kind of glass products. During the research process, he unexpectedly discovered that these things can enlarge or reduce an object under a specific curved surface structure, and can be used to make many useful alchemical items.
instrument.
"Okay, I will send someone to investigate immediately." Hatar nodded in response.
Although William was only a viscount, he controlled a huge fleet and was also a well-known wealthy businessman in the kingdom. He was one of the staunchest supporters of Prince Harold.
If he can be eliminated, then Harold will naturally lose an important helper.
…
At the same moment, in the dean's office of Iyeta College, after listening to the report of the boatman sent by Lauder, Linn tapped the table with his index finger and spoke slowly.
"In other words, that William has not been very peaceful recently, and even wants to re-divide the profit sharing?"
"Yes, William said that these novel glass products can easily arouse the covetousness of others. He needs to spend a lot of thought and energy to deal with the Holy See and the nobles of the kingdom. The benefits we give him are far from enough. He hopes to split them in half...
"The worker reported the truth truthfully.
Lin En sneered. William was just talking like a lion, completely confused about the situation.
Although the other party needs to face some additional pressure, relatively, the most dangerous shipping work is now completely carried out by them, and William does not need to intervene. All the other party has to do is use their own power to cover up and bribe their superiors.
, giving 30% of the benefits is completely considered extremely generous.
According to the investigation by Lauder and others, William perfectly implemented his hunger marketing and product grading system and sold those glass products for a sky-high price. In just two or three days, he earned thousands of imperial gold coins.
, enough to catch up with the trade volume of a whole year in the past!
However, people's greed obviously has no limit. It seems that after learning about Hellram's death, William has become a little inflated.
"Let Laud hold him back first and talk slowly. My bottom line is to give up a layer of benefits to appease the priests and nobles." Linn thought for a while and then made a decision.
William is now the Viscount of the Kingdom of [Haderata], and Lauder has only arrived in the royal capital for a week, and the news has not yet been found out. It is difficult to take over all the other party's power in a short period of time, so it is better to hold off for now.
Let’s do this calculation slowly.
What he needs now are various ore resources and scarce alchemical materials. Simple gold coins don't mean much to Lin En...
