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

The place where the Grand Duchess Aquique's insider asked Mariana to meet was a temple in the royal city of Obstar.

Since then, Botis has never expected that a thing that can barely be called a stone building is actually a temple that "belongs" to the Pope.

It is undoubtedly too harsh to call the temple in front of us "things". After all, after approaching, we can still vaguely see the statues that were almost smoothed by the wind and sand, and some small stone pits for inlaying the Ryan stone. (Ryan stone: man-made diamond, very cheap.)

"They didn't even let the Ryan stone go." Botis couldn't help but marveled after getting closer: "That thing is not worth three apples, and someone wants it."

"What's even more bizarre is yet to come." Mariana made a half-circle deliberately, and then saw the dilapidated side of the temple: "These corridors have been abandoned, and even some stone materials have been used to build cowsheds and sheepsheds."

Through the weak fence, Mariana saw some children in shabby clothes running around in the yard.Most of them are malnourished and lack nuns to take care of them, so they can only be disciplined by some older children who are working in the fields.

"Hello, ma'am." A child who was milking a goat accidentally caught a glimpse of Mariana, and then hurriedly bowed to her, almost kicking over the goat milk bucket at his feet.

Seeing this, Mariana also nodded to him seriously, and then walked towards Botis, but when she was about to reach the gate, she tripped over the uneven stone road.

"Be careful." Botis held Marianna's arm firmly, but due to the cumbersome skirt and the too thin heels, Marianna still fell half of her body to Botis, and was almost caught by the other's too hard breastplate. Hit the nose hurt.

"If this was the Principality of Britannia or the Grand Principality of Aquiquie, then I would never fall." Marianne lifted the hem of her skirt, motioned for Botis to pinch a corner for her, and then used the tip of the parasol to remove the stuck corner. Pebbles between the heels: "You know what? Some people claim that noble ladies like us carry a pair of high heels from the womb."

"I know." Botis remembered that this was similar to "If you don't have bread, why don't you eat cake." It was also a classic speech used by liberals to attack the nobility and the church.

And Mariana, as a vested beneficiary, cannot avoid the attacks of these people.

"Maybe they should see what I look like now." Marianne, who picked out the pebbles, threw the parasol to the maid, and then patted the skirt: "Aren't you coming in?"

Before Marianna finished speaking, Botis rolled his eyes at her: "Do you think I can go in?"

"That's right." Mariana made a look of sudden realization, and then stretched out her hand to Botis: "Come here."

"Do you not understand human speech?"

"Aren't you good at talking?"

"..."

Botis felt that during the time he spent with Marianna, even though he had a good knowledge of black magic, he was still more than ten years old in mind and body like a human being.

Facing Mariana's outstretched right hand, Botis held it after a little hesitation.

"I said, you don't know what happens to the devil after entering the temple."

Unlike Botis's slightly cold, rough hands, Mariana's hands were not only smaller than Botis's, but also incredibly soft and warm.

Even if a ring touched Botis' hand bone, he still slid along Mariana's tiger's jaw to the protruding veins of his wrist like a demon, and was finally interrupted by Mariana's joint movement.

"What do you want to do?" Marianna's folded right hand stopped Botis from further actions, interrupting him from his confusion.

"I don't know if the devil has worldly desires, but the price you pay for sleeping with me is quite high." Mariana stood on the second step, looking at Botis at the same level.

"Are you crazy?" Botis narrowed his eyes and asked after recovering, "Talking about worldly desires with the devil outside the gate of the temple, aren't you afraid that the gods will come to you in the middle of the night.

"If the gods really exist, then he should go to those who beg him more than me." Mariana tilted her head in the direction of the temple: "For example, the little poor people here."

"Besides, don't you know if I'm crazy?"

Botis remembered what Lena had warned him, and guessed that the other party must have said something to Mariana.

"Before entering the temple, let me remind you that if I receive damage from the temple during the contract period, then you, as my contractor, will not be able to escape unscathed."

"Don't worry, I regret my life more than you think." Mariana held Botis's hand, and the backs of the two looked like young people who secretly married behind their parents' backs.

The head of the nuns of the temple is responsible for the support. Because King Obstar cuts the support funds for the Temple every year, and the sponsorship from the Papal State has also been intercepted by King Obstar. The temple had to find a way out under the premise that the fixed income was cut by more than half.

However, most of the nuns here are abandoned babies adopted by the temple since childhood, or simple people whose parents are priests, so their awareness of making money is limited to the small-scale peasant economy model, or they bring the adopted children Go to the streets and pray for the help of rich people.

When Mariana met the head nun, the other party tried their best to entertain this noble lady who was difficult to appear in the temple, trying not to show her embarrassment in front of Mariana.

"Your Highness, thousands of words can't describe my gratitude to the Grand Duchess Aquique." The elderly nun in charge was thin and thin, but his words and deeds revealed a serious and proud taste: "Without your mother's Help, many children here will starve to death."

"I think you have asked someone to say this in my mother's ear a thousand times, and then you have confessed to the gods a thousand times." Mariana noticed that the head nun's movements were a little unnatural, and contacted her Marianna could guess the reason for the extremely pale complexion and the faintly visible scars under the sleeves.

"Your Highness, I have no intention of complaining in front of you or acting unyielding, because I firmly believe that a person's virtue depends on her actions rather than her words." The head nun who noticed Mariana's gaze tugged at her sleeves , tried to calm down and said: "I know very well that the help you and the Grand Duchess Aquiquie gave is not free, so I just hope that if someone pursues this matter in the future, please don't involve anyone other than me."

"Of course." Mariana replied very simply: "You are the one who makes the decision, and you are the one who accepts the things, so everyone else here will be safe."

After hearing this, the head nun finally drew a religious symbol on her chest with relief, and then muttered to herself: "All Gods bless." "All Gods bless."

Mariana quietly waited for the head nun to calm down, and after the other party stopped murmuring, she asked, "Who is the leader of the nobles who oppose King Obsta in the country?"

"Your father." The head nun gave a surprising answer: "After all, those fools will not admit their intentions until the last moment, and if they want to pull a banner to resist the king, they must take A corresponding successor to the throne."

"And in the whole world, who else is more suitable than your father to be this banner."

"It's a pity that they only want this big banner, and they don't want the accessories of this big banner." Mariana pointed out: "Do you know that they want to clear me in one fell swoop before my father inherits the throne, And Sierra's idea."

Marianna leaned forward and said in a low voice, "I've only heard of shameless people who pick up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl to scold mothers, but their actions are far worse than shameless people."

"Using our family, and then after my father was pushed to the throne, he borrowed a knife to kill me, as well as the mother and daughter Agnès."

With a pig's brain, if there is something wrong with Mariana in Obsta, the Grand Duchess Aquique will definitely kill Agnès and her son, and then those ambitious people will have the power to control Count Calda and even the whole country. good way.

"This kind of idea is so stupid that it shouldn't even exist." The head nun retorted coldly: "Without you, the Grand Duchess Aquique still holds the big card of Lucius in her hand. Maybe she can be in the With the support of the Papal Kingdom, they launched a war for the throne against Obstar, and at that time, Cantero, Odin, and even Solins, who has not made any major moves, will attack Obstar."

Thinking of the flames of war that Obstar might face, the head nun just wanted to pry open the brains of these people and see what was inside: "I never expect you, these people will show mercy to the world, let alone I don't want to label my actions as 'righteous'. But the civil war in Obstar is something no one wants to see, so..."

"So you chose me." Mariana interjected, "Then you figure out who is instigating the separatists in the country?"

"There are two people, one is the transparent Prince Abel, your second cousin." The head nun replied: "Since he was poisoned, neither conservatives nor radicals want to choose a disabled king, even In some ways, Princess Innes is more competitive for the throne than the transparent Prince Abel."

"The second one?"

"Odin's Little Emperor and Cantero King."

"..."

"Sorry, say it again." Mariana thought she had heard it wrong.

"Odin's little emperor and Cantero's king also want to take this opportunity to dismantle Obstar." The head nun is also very clear about how unbelievable this matter is, but the fact is that she can't change anything.

"King Cantero needless to say, as for Odin's little emperor."

It was the first time that the head nun encountered this kind of poisonous snake: "In his words, no matter who sits on the throne, he will not lose."

"What do you mean?" It was the first time Mariana encountered a situation that confused her.
