Archbishop Matthew led the monks and the church knights to the lecture hall next door before he began to recite his adventures in the past few hours.
"The Holy Mother cut her flesh to feed the eagle, and the white dove became holy …"
Everyone was almost as shocked as Old Matthew at that time, and they all had the same realization.
However, there was still a gap between them, so it was not as good as listening to the Holy Mother's sermon. It was like watching a movie could not compare.
Their piety had greatly increased, and many of them even condensed the Holy Mother's Seal on the spot. However, no monk's soul was refined and became a divine priest.
Even so, Archbishop Matthew was greatly comforted when he saw the faint golden light on the foreheads of the pastors below him. He sighed and said, "We should recompile the Seven Stars Bible. Apart from adding a foreword, we should also adjust the interpretation of mercy in the Gospel of the Blessed Virgin so that all believers can understand the great spirit of the Blessed Virgin Mary."
The cultivators all nodded in agreement.
After discussing the Holy Mother's Path of Mercy for a while, Archbishop Matthew began to talk about his mission.
"By the way, the invasion of the Andals … Ahem, it's westward. During the Andals' westward invasion of Westeros, there was a saint named Moses who was also forgotten by history. We should at least write a biography of him."
After the story of Saint Moses was told, everyone gasped in amazement.
Not long after, the history books of the Westerners had a new king named Egypt, Saint Moses who saved twenty-seven thousand believers of the Seven Gods.
The so-called history was more or less like this.
"Now that the King of Egypt is coming, I will imitate Saint Moses and lead the people of King's Landing to migrate to Storm's End Castle in the south. This is the mission given to me by the Holy Mother, "Old Matthew said.
Lancel suddenly remembered the message from the Dragon Queen. She quickly took out the letter and handed it to the archbishop. "Before Stannis entered the city, he began to call for the seven kingdoms and other countries to come to King's Landing to fight against the Otherworldly Demons.
The Dragon Queen believes that the battle at King's Landing will be tragic. She wants us to arrange for the ordinary monks and refugees to leave immediately. "
Lord Theodore Wales agreed and said, "I participated in the Battle of Winterfell. The White Blade River outside Winterfell has as much water as the Green Fork River, but it was frozen.
Therefore, the Neck Swamp and the Trident River, which could block the living, were like a level road for the deviant ghosts. A great battle at the King's Landing was inevitable.
Unless the warriors of the seven kingdoms gathered at King's Landing, the pressure on King's Landing's defenses would be greater than Winterfell's. King's Landing is too big. "
This middle-aged man was the commander of the Warrior's Sons. His position was even higher than that of Lancer.
Matthew handed the letter to the archbishop beside him and said, "There is no doubt that the Holy Mother has also conveyed an edict to the Pope."
Lansel asked curiously, "Archbishop, your soul seemed to have left your body and grown wings. What happened?"
Old Matthew was intrigued by her words. He smiled and said, "Thanks to the teachings of the Holy Mother, I have gained some enlightenment. My soul has been sublimated, and I have become an angel."
"What is an angel?" Everyone looked at him in confusion.
Old Matthew smiled and said, "Before the appearance of the Atonement Scroll, those who could go to heaven were all saints. There was a higher realm above the saints. The Guardian Angel was the first level above the saints.
Originally, only after death could one be blessed by the Holy Mother and transformed from a saint soul into an angel. But when the long night came and the world was in danger, the Holy Mother gave me the power of heaven in advance. "
Seeing that the people around him were still confused and did not have a direct understanding of angels, Old Matthew raised his hand and stopped Theodore from asking questions. He said, "The power that the Holy Mother gave me is not to show off. Just like I will not tell you that the Holy Mother also taught me three moves of the 'Holy Mother Palm'.
I will not show off the peerless power of the Holy Mother Palm and the Holy Mother Palm in public. "
Holy Mother Palm? Peerless power?
The monks and knights' expressions were a little distorted. If you did not tell us, we would not have known that you had the three moves of the Holy Mother Palm. As soon as you said it, we became more and more impatient, but you only told us half the story.
But then, they heard Chief Bishop Matthew say, "The Holy Mother asked me to lead the people of King's Landing to the south, but I don't have the prestige of Saint Moses. I have to show my divine might and let the believers know that I am the angel of the Holy Mother."
That evening, the bells on the seven towers of the Holy Church rang. The sound of the bells echoed throughout King's Landing, and hundreds of thousands of people in the city heard it.
The bells on the towers only rang at the same time on important occasions, such as the death of a king or the ascension of the throne. At this time, the seven bells rang at the same time, which meant that something important was about to happen.
For a moment, the Visania Hills became a huge magnet. All the people and believers in King's Landing were like rusty iron shavings, rushing to the place where the bells rang.
Cersei, who was in the Empress Dowager's tower of the Red Keep, also woke up from her daze because of the bells.
There was only a wooden bed in the stone tower, which made the room of nearly 150 square meters look particularly empty.
If Sansa had come to take a look, she would have thought that she had gone the wrong way.
But this was indeed the Empress Dowager's tower, the Empress Dowager's tower that the cruel Maegor had built for her mother.
The Empress Dowager's tower was the tower with the best natural environment in the Red Keep.
Open the window and face the sea, a row of egrets in the blue sky and thousands of white sails in the blue water. Go to the balcony and look down at King's Landing, the Nine Heavens Gates, the open palace, and the clothes of thousands of countries.
The interior of the Empress Dowager's tower was extremely luxurious. The floor was covered with a Myrish carpet that made people feel like they were falling into the clouds. The walls were hung with colorful brocades embroidered with exotic landscapes. A screen in the middle of summer separated the tea room near the balcony from the bedroom. The sandalwood table and chairs were filled with exquisite golden pots and jade cups that looked like works of art.
Now, except for the statue of the Holy Mother that Cersei had bought years ago, which was half the height of a man, in the corner, everything was gone.
The French doors to the balcony were bricked up, and the windows facing the sea were boarded up.
This was You Lun's request. He said it was to protect his wife. Cersei thought that You Lun wanted to torture her. At most, the others thought that You Lun was worried that Cersei would not be able to bear the hardships and jump off the building to commit suicide.
You Lun was telling the truth.
Before the Battle of Winterfell, Arya had been spying on Cersei at King's Landing for months!
The carpet, screen, brocades, and all the other furniture had been removed. Even the down quilt on the bed had been replaced with straw curtains and coarse linen sheets.
The dark and cold stone room was filled with the smell of fermented excrement.
"The bells of the Holy Church are ringing. Why?" The greasy straw quilt was lifted, revealing a furry head that looked like a messy grain grass. On the dirty and bruised cheeks, one could vaguely make out the shadow of the Color Queen.
She blinks her eyes and tilts her head to listen carefully. After confirming that it is the Seven Great Bells of the Holy Church, she suddenly lifts the heavy and moldy quilt with an unknown strength. She changes from a pitiful shrimp into a rampaging crab with its fangs and claws.
She waved her arms that were like sticks of reeds, stomped her feet and shouted, "Someone, someone, tell me what happened outside. Did that bastard You Lun usurp the throne and be crowned the King of Eunuchs?"
No one answered her.
Cersei was not discouraged. Wrapping herself in an old sheepskin jacket, she ran to the door and slammed the oak door that was as thick as the wall of the world.
Beyond the oak door was another world.
"Why aren't you sleeping after dinner? Why are you yelling at ghosts?" The old woman's stern voice came from outside the door.
"Sister Maule, why are the bells ringing in the Holy Church? Did You Lun usurp the throne? How can you allow an evil heretic to become the king? "Cersei shouted.
Crack! A small window 20 centimeters long and wide cracked open on the top of the wooden door. Immediately, yellow light and the pungent smell of smoke mixed with kerosene came in.
Then, an old woman's sharp face that looked like an axe blocked most of the light.
"You Lun did not usurp your throne. Go back to sleep," the old nun said coldly.
Cersei heard and let out a long sigh of relief.
Her pale and dirty little dry face showed the peaceful smile of a country wife who watched her husband return with a cow in satisfaction on a summer's evening.
The anger in her heart dissipated. Her body quickly felt the cold air from the long night. Cersei shivered and asked, "What happened outside?"
"I want to know too," Sister Maule said impatiently.
"You're the only one outside. Everyone else went to the Holy Church? If that's the case, let me talk to you to relieve your boredom. Later, we can ask Sister Alanthine about what happened in the Holy Church. "Cersei handed over a maid's humble smile.
The old nun outside the door turned her face away. She did not speak, but she did not close the window. The yellow light shone in again. Cersei moved her face closer, greedily feeling the brightness and heat of the light.
"Have the Other Ghosts reached the King's Landing?" Cersei asked expectantly.
If the Other Ghosts besieged the King's Landing, You Lun would have to guard the wall. If you encountered the Other Ghosts …
"Hehehe …" Thinking of the beauty, Cersei could not help but crack a dry smile, like a dried orange that had been exposed to the sun for a few days.
"What are you laughing at?"
The sudden and inexplicable laughter startled the old nanny outside the door.
Cersei stopped laughing and said, "What's the big news in the Westeros recently? Tell me. I'm just fasting and training. I didn't join the Silence sisters. Even the Silence sisters can ask about outside news, right? "
"The church only asked you to repent and atone for your sins. They did not block your news. As long as it's not prayer time, your husband and the Grand Chamberlain can visit you at any time. You can ask them, "Sister Maule said.
Cersei stroked the bruises on her face and gritted her teeth. "Are you playing dumb? Can't you see that they have betrayed me?
You Lun used the Church of the Seven Gods to bind me and steal the queen's power.
You call yourselves the servants of the Seven Gods in the mortal world, but you actually helped an evil heretic to torture the Holy Mother's lamb. "
"You first murdered the Holy Sparrow, and then voluntarily confessed to the Holy Mother as an ascetic to atone for your sins. The church only supervised you to fulfill your vows, and did not participate in the power struggle of the Seven Kingdoms.
You Lun is your lawful husband, Lady Tanya is the Grand Chamberlain you chose, and even the Red Keep's guard commander was appointed by you.
When did the church interfere in the Red Keep's internal affairs other than to ensure that you repent on time? "The nun with the pointed chin said sharply.
Cersei was speechless.
The old nun was despicable, but she was right. In this game of power, the church did not interfere at all.
It was only because she had made a holy vow to the people and sparrows in King's Landing that the Church had sent someone to help her fulfill her vow. She had used five years of penance to atone for the death of the Great Sparrow.
"It was You Lun, he was the one who recruited the Winged Dragon mercenaries. He was also the one who suggested that the Winged Dragon knights could be used to murder the sparrow, and then let the Winged Dragon knights take the blame.
He was the one who made me swear, who made me cultivate! It's all You Lun's fault, he plotted against me! "Cersei howled.
