Chapter 488 Everyone in the Salvation Army knows about it, but Paslik thinks we don’t know
As the bell rang, the originally pouring rain became heavier and heavier.
The rain hit the wooden gear paneling of the Holy Hall and collided with the colored glass, making a crisp crackling sound.
Groups of senior monks in black poured out of the doorway of the Holy Advent Hall of Castle Joan of Arc.
Looking up at the rain lines hanging from the eaves, they did not leave, but hid under the eaves and stood in a dark row.
These senior monks wore hoods and cloaks, revealing the leather boots under their feet. They held the "Plan" and other documents in the red patent leather suitcases in their hands.
This kind of brown-red portable patent leather case and standard filing cabinet were distributed by Horn to these senior monks, and they were required not to randomly place the documents after reading them.
Because when he visited Madelan's house last time, he found that he had placed confidential documents in the toilet of his villa.
And Jeshka next door placed confidential documents in the doghouse in the courtyard.
Horn couldn't bear it anymore, so he issued this order.
The senior monks standing in a row under the eaves were worried about the rain that was getting heavier, but Jeanne quickly walked out of the back room and announced: "Everyone, please wait a moment, Your Majesty has sent someone to inform the horse and carriage team. , I will send a carriage to take everyone back later.”
“Your Excellency!” The monks who were still hesitant to rush into the rain cheered.
After cheering, this group of idle people gathered together and started chatting.
But among the chattering people, Halkin gritted his teeth, raised the red patent leather box, put it on his head, and prepared to rush into the rain.
“Hey, hey, hey.” Grampwin grabbed Halkin by the back of his neck and pulled him back, “Why are you in a hurry? Your Majesty said, didn’t you send someone to pick him up? ? Be careful of getting cold. ”
"Of course you are not in a hurry. You live in a luxurious villa area. There will be a carriage with a fixed route to pick you up." Halkin pulled the collar of his cloak and lost the courage to rush into the rain again. "I went back late. The army's Those beasts won’t even leave me a piece of meat.”
According to Horn’s current distribution principles, each cardinal is equipped with a townhouse.
This difference in treatment has long been apparent, but the "Plan" just raised it from underwater to the surface.
In the "Plan", starting from the traveling monks, there are rank distinctions. From low to high, they are attendant, reciter, exorcist, sect, and apostle. Each level is divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. .
In "The Plan", Grampwin belongs to the lower class of apostolic monks and can be allocated a townhouse.
Halkin, on the other hand, is a superior exorcist monk and can theoretically be assigned a single apartment.
However, there are currently many townhouses and the promised single apartments are still being built.
So Halkin still had to live with Gilo, Das and others in the dormitory [Monk Palace] separated from the bedroom of the lord's palace.
Although there is a cafeteria in the monk's palace and you can eat unlimited meals, after that time, the kitchen will not cook any more.
In addition, Halkin, Chilvis, Colebo and others made an appointment for a card game, and they would play cards until nine o'clock every day after dinner.
Halkin was in such a hurry because he didn't want to miss it. This was one of his few hobbies.
"What's the hurry? Do you still have a carriage that can run fast?" Grampwin said with a smile, "How about you get into my carriage later and I'll drop it off for you at the Monk's Palace. "
Grampwen and Halkin are old acquaintances. They were also partners who fought side by side in the Battle of Long Bridge.
Although Halkin is not as qualified as Grampwin, the two have always had a good personal relationship.
"That's good." Halkin stopped, "I have a card game tonight, do you want to come with me?"
"You still play cards?" Grampwin asked in surprise, "Didn't you say that monks are not allowed to gamble?"
"A handful of coppers, what kind of gambling is this? It's just a joke..." Look Seeing the melancholy hidden in Grampwin's eyebrows, Halkin suppressed his smile and said, "Are you still thinking about Dia?"
"What do you think, I'm about to give birth, and I'm still crying He's acting outside." Grampwin glared at Halkin. It's been ten months since the couple parted ways.
Dia was originally sent to Changdi City, the base of the Ruoan Party, just on the edge of Chimao Town.
The wife is now in labor, but the two parties cannot be reunited.
Grampwin took the troupe around the edge of the Red Copper Fortress several times, but still failed to pass.
Some time ago, the situation was complicated, with various wars and narrow escapes. Grampwin did not dare to call Dia back. Now that the situation is temporarily stable, Diya is pregnant again and is prone to miscarriage due to the long journey, so she cannot come over.
This made him so anxious that he wished he could fly directly to Dia to accompany her.
Halkin jumped up and patted him on the back, comforting him: "Don't worry, for your Majesty's sake, Changdi City will definitely bring out the best witch doctors to deliver the baby. It will be fine."
"I have been thinking these past few days, if I am not with Dia when she gives birth...Holy Lord, please bless..."
"Don't think about it, I'll tell you some inside information. ." Halkin lowered his voice, "Jinhe Township and Kasha County have cut off the food supply of the Red Copper Fortress, and it is currently surrounded by the forces of the Salvation Army.
The old lady of the Arko family will soon be dead. The Kush nobles will be taken to Fort Joan of Arc, and Cardinal Paslik has already led the way.
Believe it or not, there must be members of the Black Snake Bay Secret Party in the old lady's delegation, they said. It's a meeting with Dean Ludwick, but we will definitely discuss the issue of the Red Copper Fortress.
You take the troupe there in advance and wait. As soon as the Red Copper Fortress falls, you can ride over. I think it's 80% possible. Can catch up.”
Grampwin stared at Halkin's face for several seconds before smiling bitterly: "Thank you, Halkin."
"It's okay, we are friends, friends don't ask for anything in return...cough cough , but if I arrange someone to join your troupe in the future, you are not allowed to refuse." Halkin joked.
"Okay, I will definitely leave a place for you as a dwarf in my circus from now on."
Halkin was stunned and could hardly believe his ears.
Amidst the snickers of the other young priests in black around him, he jumped up in anger: "I am not a dwarf, I am a dwarf. Only humans have dwarfs, but we dwarves do not have dwarfs.
< br>
Thank you for my kindness in comforting you. Is this how you repay your friend's comfort? "
"Hahahaha, okay, okay, I was wrong, I apologize to you. "Grampwen turned sideways to avoid Halkin's angrily beating him.
Amidst the laughter and applause of many monks and the sound of fire-fighting, the two of them quarreled for a while before chatting again.
>Leaning against the damp wall, Grampwin rubbed his lower back: "I have always been curious, why is it Cardinal Paslik who receives the Kush people from Jinhe Township every time? ”
“Don’t you know? Halkin was surprised, "Paslik and the old grandmother are lovers." ”
"What?!" Now Grampwin was shocked, and he quickly covered Halkin's mouth, "How can such a thing be said in public?"
You know, from then on In terms of status, these two are both high-ranking officials of the Salvation Papal State, and their identities are quite sensitive. Their relationship is not something that can be discussed casually.
"Your Excellency Grampwin, you must have been out on tour for a long time." Another young monk smiled, "Everyone in the Salvation Army knows about this. Only Paslik thinks we don't I know."
Pushing away Grampwin's hand, Halkin sighed on the ground a few times before saying, "Can't you see that the old man was drunk last time? When I was talking, I let it slip that he was in charge of the grain trade between the south of Jinhe Township and Black Snake Bay, and the lady he was dealing with was named Vivian.
Later we talked with Perini and Domenico. The lady who tipped us off last time was the grandmother who had an affair with Paslik. The grandmother’s name was Vivian. .
The two of them got along well when they were in their thirties. To be honest, among the younger generations of the Arco family, I can’t tell whose bloodline they are. ”
“My Holy Lord. "Grampwen thought this was an ordinary conversation in the rain, but he didn't expect such explosive gossip news.
But just from the way the monks around him were not surprised, he knew that this was the case. I'm afraid everyone knows it, but Paslik said firmly that he didn't.
"You only have your unborn child in your mind. "Halkin patted Grampwin's arm, "Don't be too closed-minded, come out for a walk. ”
"How can I have such thoughts... You are quite concerned. You are already thirty this year, aren't you getting married yet?" Grampwin asked, looking at the carriages passing by in the rain.
“Why are you like my father?” Halkin patted his crotch vulgarly, “A dwarf’s cock can be hard even at fifty years old, but at thirty?
Not to mention thirty years old, like my father, who is sixty-five, he is still in his early years.”
Grampwen was about to speak, but his movements stopped and he stopped Halkin’s shoulder. : "Good boy, I really thought you didn't care about the personal relationship between your children. That's okay. Which wealthy businessman's daughter is this?"
"What kind of wealthy businessman's daughter is this?" Hal Jin, still confused, turned his head. , but saw a beautifully decorated carriage parked next to the Holy Advent Hall.
The carriage door opened, revealing the warm and soft decoration inside, and a masked woman was sitting sideways, waving to him.
Halkin's eyes lit up, and he quickly knocked away Grampwin's hand: "Don't talk nonsense, this will be our big customer in the future, this is not a woman, this is a Pile gold.”
