[West Fantasy] The noble lady who was divorced became rich

The person in charge of the Inquisition is not an important position at first glance, but most patriarchs in various countries have served in the Inquisition, so being the person in charge of the Inquisition is very useful for the future evaluation of professional titles. It is no exaggeration to say that the road to the Pope must be passed.

"Is there anything special about the priests sent down by the Pope?" Marianne remembered that the Pope rarely sent down priests, unless it was for personal reasons or for the people who were sent down to accumulate seniority in their own country so that they could push them to more important positions. seat.

"Excellence?" The Minister of the Seal recalled the other party's relevant information, and felt that there was nothing special to pay attention to: "His experience is very ordinary, but he was the guard of the Pope's son before he was sent down."

"The Pope's son?" Marianne's mind flashed Danhill's face, and then she thought of the other's frivolous character, so she sighed: "That's really hard for him..."

It is said that a phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken. This decentralizer is either cutting off with the Pope for self-protection, or with other members of the Papal State... There is a high probability that the Pope’s political opponents made a deal, and then avoided the Pope’s domestic power through decentralization Alternate to obtain safe opportunities to climb upwards.

only……

"It's too impatient." Before the pope's funeral started, someone gathered or cleared his remaining forces, as if... someone, like her, was bound to win the seat of the next pope.

"Your Majesty?" The Keeper of the Seal only heard Mariana muttering "too impatient", and thought she was referring to the reception work of the Holy Maiden, so he explained: "The Holy Maiden's tour group will leave Cantero the day after tomorrow, So it’s too late to discuss the reception work now.”

"No, I'm not referring to the reception work of the saint." Mariana propped her chin up and connected the clues so far in the darkness with her eyes closed: "Everyone, who do you think is the favorable contender for the next pope?"

The members of the council who had been discussing the reception had lost their voices, making the council hall as quiet as a grave at night.

"Why are you silent? Could it be that you can't think of a candidate who meets the requirements?" Mariana opened her eyes and glanced at every member present: "The Pope is dead, and the selection of the next Pope should not be done." Do you want to arrange it immediately?"

"Having said that, but..." The Keeper of the Seals does not think that the Pope's Congress will start the selection of the next pope at this time. After all, the saint is still abroad, and the Adventurer's Guild and the slave market are still asking about the saint's speech. .

"Because now is not the best time to choose the next pope, someone will preempt the layout." Mariana explained: "Everything can't be prepared until someone speaks." Especially when it comes to the selection information of the pope, it is completely slow , step by step slowly.

"Then do you know anything about the people who cleared the Pope's power?" The member of the parliament who responded first asked, "Since everyone has begun to arrange political teams, it is too unreasonable not to take down the Pope."

Although the other party said this in a joking manner, all the members of the council present looked solemn, as if they would go to the battlefield in the next second.

"Is His Majesty the Emperor of Odin recruiting the Pope's remnant team?" The Keeper of the Seals was also considered to be someone who knew Mariana better.Knowing that if the Grand Duchess Aquique or Richard were interested in the Pope's political team, it is estimated that Mariana would not show an expression of facing an enemy.

Only His Majesty the Emperor of Odin...

"How could the Papal State let the Odin people become the Pope?" A certain young councilor said immediately, "Isn't this clearly asking the world to poke the back of the Papal State?"

"But Odin's little emperor doesn't need an Odin-born cardinal to be pope...he just needs to throw a smoke bomb and let his hidden candidate be crowned in secret."

Since others will jump left and right among the major forces, Odin's little emperor is no exception.

"As long as the new Pope favors Odin, then within a few months, Odin will be cleared of his grievances. Maybe in a few years it will turn into a conspiracy against the Pope, and then blame the innocent Emperor Odin."

"As for who this certain country is, everyone must have an opinion."

"Then are you planning to push His Excellency Felipe to the position of Pope?" The Keeper of the Seal keenly sensed that Mariana was bound to win the position of Pope, so he proposed a somewhat crazy but reasonable idea.

The result was a lot of opposition.

"It's too risky." The person closest to the Keeper of the Seal said with embarrassment: "Your Excellency Philippe has not been a cardinal for two years! Moreover, he was promoted from a local bishop to a cardinal. If you let him He became the Pope's candidate..." Let alone Obsta's enemies, even people who were neutral and biased towards Obsta would think that the Papal State had become Obsta's possession.

Undoubtedly, this was putting Obusda on the fire.

"But if you don't mention Cardinal Felipe, who can you mention?" A member of the parliament at the back of the seat interjected: "Cantero has taken the place of the saint and a cardinal, so he won't make such a fuss about eating. It’s ugly, and among the remaining seats, one is a confidant of the pope, two are fixed seats in the Northern Alliance, and the last one is an Odin who will never be pope.”

It stands to reason that under the premise that the next pope is in a stalemate and the next pope should be a southerner, the pope's confidant is the person most likely to become the next pope.Moreover, as soon as he came to power, there would be a vacancy for the position of cardinal promised by the Papal States to Richard, so there was no need for Odin's cardinal to abdicate.Only in this way, the Papal State became a monopoly between Cantero and Odin, which made Obsta's situation very unfavorable.

As for the Northern Alliance... They have established themselves 800 years ago, and now they only maintain superficial efforts with the Pope.

"As far as the current situation is concerned, the Pope's confidants are the most powerful contenders." Mariana knew exactly what the members present were thinking.After all, according to inertial thinking, if you can't choose your own person, then choose someone who remains neutral.

"It's a pity that His Majesty the Emperor of Odin thinks so too."

Mariana guessed that the pope's confidant was also looking for a new home, so she hit it off with Odin's little emperor.

"Working for the Pope, you can also get into the position of Cardinal." Without thinking about it, he knew how much that confidant had blamed the Pope and how many black things he had done.And now, once the pope died, the handle in his hand was also a sharp knife that hurt himself.

To make matters worse, he is not as irreplaceable as Marianne who purged the Britannian nobles back then.

So before the pope's sworn enemies react, he must find a backer.
