Refusing Love As A Queen

Hearing his footsteps, the queen raised her head.

"I just wondered if you would come," Adele said. "After all, I just sent some of your brothers from the Knights to the Wyhall Prison."

"What are you looking for me for?"

As soon as he spoke, the archbishop regretted it, and it sounded like a young knight who came to the appointment. After noticing this, his tone hardened.

"They will make you pay."

Adele closed the book and stood up.

She did not wear the usual Chinese clothes, and the pure white taffeta dress was close to the waist, which outlined the lines of the willow branches in the early spring. The sunlight coated her skirt and hair with a light gold, and they looked like Saint Catherine on the dome of the church.

Archbishop Rodry realized why he sometimes felt that the Queen gave him a sense of familiarity.

On the dome of the cathedral in Gelt, the capital of Roland, the famous painter Bilust took three years to complete an enlightened picture. On the mural, many dead saints gathered together to testify how God saved the world. Among them, Saint Catherine wore a white linen skirt, and her face was not as beautiful as the world.

The archbishop hadn't noticed before, but the contact with the queen during this period made him realize that the face of Saint Catherine on the mural was clearly the queen of the princess period.

This is not uncommon.

From the past to the present, many religious themes have been created by painters based on the armor of princes or people from the royal family. When the cathedral was being repaired, Adele had just finished her exile and was called back to the palace by his brother James. In terms of time, Bilust might indeed have seen Adele, and his impression of her was left in the church frescoes.

"So, I want to know," Adele said, "How much power do you have in the Knights of the Temple?"

"Don't you think I betrayed my brother."

The archbishop replied hard.

"I need your help, Rodri." Adele said directly, "otherwise the turbulence cannot be subdued."

"Do you dare to say something like this to me?" The archbishop couldn't believe it. "Do you think I would still believe you? After you took advantage of my kindness and slaughtered the old gods?"

Yes, he was used.

The vague hunch along the way was confirmed at this moment, she was indeed using him, and he turned out to be like an idiot, ridiculously worried about her safety.

"The gods are on!" The archbishop couldn't restrain his anger, he blurted out, "I should really let them do it! Let you be put on the fire."

"You know better than me what is going on! Why am I targeting them? I don't care if they hate me. Whoever is an enemy of Roland is an enemy of me. Assuming you haven't forgotten that you are Roland People, then please answer me, is it me or are they betraying Roland's interests?"

The queen's tone also became tough.

"Answer me! Rodri!"

"But you are also causing new turmoil and chaos. Do you want a new "spiritual war"? Like in 1552."

The archbishop questioned.

In 1552.

The first large-scale conflict broke out between the Protestant Church and the Old Church in the Roland Empire, and it was later called the "Spiritual War". In the "Spiritual War", the two sides sacrificed many people, and finally had to take a step back, but the hatred did not disappear, but intensified.

Up to now, the two factions have been in force.

"I said, I don't care whether you believe in the new gods or the old gods, as long as you are Roland's people and follow Roland's laws." The queen said sharply, "I want everyone to let go of hatred and let people who believe in different gods. People can treat each other as brothers and sisters, don’t you understand—"

"The new and the old don't matter!"

"As long as it is friendly, it is Roland's."

"You must be crazy, you are not even a heresy!" Archbishop Rodri looked at the queen, as if she was the viper that seduce humans, "Only the devil can dare to say such things to you."

No one, no one can say such a thing.

Belief should be pious, and it should not be profanity.

God is the only one. If not, how can mortals wash away their original sin? How to get your soul saved? Even pagans have unquestionable gods they worship.

"No, you are wrong."

The queen's voice seemed to come from a distant country.

"I am the chosen one."

"You are crazy." The archbishop took a step back.

"What if I can prove it?"

The queen watched him, her face overlapping with the saint on the church fresco.

The wind blew the curtains, and the sun poured into this dusty room, sweeping away all the darkness. The queen was shrouded in molten gold-like brilliance.

Sharp, fierce, high above.

"Then..." The archbishop could hardly hear his own voice, "Prove it to me."

……………………

Countless sharp irons/guns pointed at the sky.

The immediate competition was not cancelled due to the Queen's poisoning incident, but the time was changed. This is what the queen and the marshal of the empire meant-the royal family and the government need a brilliant performance to wipe out the anxious atmosphere that has shrouded the capital since the July rebellion.

On the Baihe River, gorgeous tents with various family crests were set up, and various flags and emblems were dizzying. The young knights entered the arena in the dust from their horseshoes, wearing iron armor, shining in the sun. The ladies and ladies who were sitting on the high platform in costumes were given a rare opportunity to look at them upright.

The petals were spilled into the White River, matching the reflection of the flag.

Everything looks great.

If not for those riders/guns, those heavily armed guards in the colorful flags.

"You are taking a risk."

Prince Arthur sat next to the queen and said softly to the cheers.

I don’t know if it was intentional. Prince Arthur wore a vermilion jacket today. The dress was embroidered with royal iris flowers of the Royal family with gold thread. The neckline and cuffs were laced with diamonds, and the silver buckles were sparkling in the sun. . Of course this kind of dress is blameless, but the problem is...

The problem is that the queen's dress is also scarlet.

The Earl of the Ruth Empire, who was sitting on the other side, looked at them, feeling anxious in his heart.

——I don’t know, I thought Prince Arthur and Queen Roland were the couple about to get married.

It was not a safe signal, but the thin sword that passed by the neck took away the courage of the earl. He seemed to finally realize the other side of Prince Arthur who was mocked for "like a woman", the dangerous and vicious side, so that he could only watch all this.

The earl could only look away.

At this moment, the earl suddenly noticed a person not far away who seemed out of place with his surroundings. He was wearing a black monk's robe, his brow bones were like eagle wings, and his steel-blue eyes stared at the queen and prince on the high platform with a bit of displeasure.

The count thought for a while, and recognized him as the youngest archbishop ever, Rodri.

"I heard that you also prepared armor." Adele avoided Prince Arthur's question lightly. She half-covered her face with the exquisite gold-embroidered fan in her hand. "Your brother once defeated twelve people in a match. Knight, no one can be his opponent, you must be there at that time?"

"It's too unfair for you to be like this. I have been here these days, but I dare not pray for you for a minute or a second. Apart from you, no one else can occupy my thoughts. And you?"

Prince Arthur laughed and stared at Adele intently.

"When you are with me, you still think of Brother Wang? I assure you, he is not as handsome as me."

His tone was filled with grievances and complaints, and his handsome face, like an angel, was replaced by an ordinary lady here, and he must be annoyed by his gaffe.

It is a pity that he met Adele Roland.

The glamorous and iron-hearted Queen Roland.

She chuckled and pushed the face of Prince Arthur who was too close with her fan a little further: "Have you heard the recent rumors? They all said that I was overwhelmed for you and wanted to change the marriage partner. What about me? The lovers in the legend line up and can walk along the White River to the gate of the city. And you? You have not had a marriage contract so far, unlike a notorious person like me."

"Are they blind?" Prince Arthur showed a look of disbelief, "Isn't it me that I was fascinated by you?"

Adele smiled and covered her face with a fan.

Prince Arthur, the "Prince of Sin" who is good at conspiracy, poison and tricks, can indeed make himself extraordinarily likable when he wants to.

After a while.

"Actually, there is no difference between a prince and a king in an alliance, do they?"

He said slowly, the blue of his eyes seemed extremely dangerous.

"This is the most touching thing I've ever heard." The queen put down her fan and smiled.

She had a sincere tone, but calmly moved past the dangerous topic.

At this time, there was thunderous applause in the venue.

The queen cast her gaze over.

I saw a knight with cold armor passing by, his cloak as dark as night, without any family patterns on it. The enemy rolled to the ground behind him, throwing up a cloud of dust. The test ended as fast as lightning, because the knight in the black cloak was like a saber, beheading his enemy the moment he was unsheathed.

The ceremonial officer told everyone in a loud voice that this was his eleventh victory.

The onlookers cheered, and the noble ladies threw their flowers into the venue.

At any time, the winner is always worthy of worship.

Prince Arthur squinted his eyes and recognized him as the damned civilian, Robert Dalton. When the ceremonial officer was about to read his next opponent, Prince Arthur suddenly stood up and interrupted him loudly.

"I will be this gentleman's opponent."

The nobles with keen sense of smell exchanged their eyes, and the civilians who don't know their inside information shouted louder for the more intense episode. Force, challenge, this is the charm of the competition.

The ceremonial officer cast his gaze on Dalton in the field. He raised the visor of his helmet and nodded without any expression.

The prince left to put on his armor. When he appeared on the other side of the venue, the faces of the noble ladies could not help but blush. General Dalton is handsome, but his handsomeness is as cold and sharp as a blade. Prince Arthur perfectly fits all the girls' fantasy about Prince Charming.

Dalton bypassed most of the venue.

Finally he stopped in front of the queen's high platform and leaned towards the queen: "Do I have the honor to take your blessings to the battlefield? Your Majesty."

The queen smiled slightly, stood up gracefully, and took a step down.

At this moment, another war horse arrived, and Prince Arthur took the reins and stopped in front of the high platform. He stretched out his hand to the queen like Dalton who hadn't seen one side:

"Can you protect me?"
