"Quick, send the score to the archbishop!”A maid took out a crumpled piece of paper from her inner lining and stuffed it into the hands of a cavalryman.
The cavalryman glanced at the scribbled staff on the paper and revealed a rare smile.
" Don't worry, the bishop will like it very much. Maybe he will reward you with a few rubles..." The knight whispered and kissed the maid's face.
" Alright, go quickly. Whether you can buy a farm in the countryside depends on whether you can seize the opportunity. Go quickly..." The maid urged.
"Alright, wait for my good news!" The cavalryman slapped the maid's buttocks hard, and in the midst of laughter, he mounted his horse and galloped out of the castle.
Gatley Monastery.
This ancient monastery had stood on the shore of Lake Gatley for several centuries.
As the most famous monastery in St. Petersburg, there were many ascetics living here. At the same time, the bishop who managed this place was also the supreme monk who was in charge of the theocracy of the entire St. Petersburg Orthodox Church.
"Sir, a cavalryman from Lake Gartry Castle has brought a piece of news!”Father Anton said to the bishop.
"What news?"
"His Majesty arrived at Lake Gatley Castle last night. Baron Wester was with him!”
"Oh? This is the first time that His Majesty has gone to Lake Gatley Castle this year. Interesting…Is there any other news?”Bishop Vasily was curious.
"Yes, he said that there's a piano score that he wanted to give to you personally. It was played by Baron Wester to please His Majesty. His Majesty likes it very much!”
"Is that so? Quickly bring that cavalryman in. I want to see what kind of song can move His Majesty. Hehe, I have always liked music!”
Bishop Vasily looked expectant.
He already had all of Yang Yin's music works in his hands.
For example," Fate "," For Dolores "," The Blue Danube "," Women are Fickle "…
As a music maniac, he collected almost all the works of famous musicians in Europe and Asia. He even collected the minor tunes sung by the villagers in the countryside.
"Sir, please allow me to dedicate this score to you. May God bless everyone!”The cavalrymen came in and immediately presented the score attentively.
Bishop Vassily took it and unfolded it. At first, he was not satisfied with the crumpled paper.
However!
However…
When he saw the score and started humming, he fell into a wonderful ecstasy and intoxication, completely unable to extricate himself.
"Quick, help me to my piano. I want to play it immediately!”Bishop Vassily shouted.
"Yes, sir!" Father Anton immediately supported the bishop and walked quickly to a piano.
Beautiful notes flowed out from Bishop Vasily's fingertips, like a flowing stream, like a dreamy dream, like the sound of spring...
It was simply wonderful!
After a while, the music ended.
Vasily stood up and danced excitedly.
"Awesome, wonderful, and amazing. I dare say that this song will soon become a world-famous song. Baron Wester is really an angel!”
"Yes, yes, yes, the bishop is right. Baron Wester is an angel in the sky. Only an angel is worthy of his great talent!”The cavalryman flattered.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Father Anton, give this cavalryman twenty rubles…no, thirty rubles.”The bishop laughed.
"Thank you, Lord Bishop. May God bless you!”The cavalryman took the 30 rubles and left.
Thirty rubles was already the price of a ticket for the opera " Jester ". He had only sent a letter and received thirty rubles. If this money was placed in the countryside, it would be a huge sum of money!
Hehe, the money of nobles and monks was so easy to earn!
"Father Anton, prepare the carriage. We're going to Gatley Lake Castle!”the bishop said excitedly.
"Yes, sir!"
A low-key and gorgeous carriage drove out of the monastery and headed towards Lake Gatley Castle. Soon, the carriage arrived at the castle.
"What? Bishop Vassily came personally?!”Catherine II jumped up in surprise.
Bishop Vasily was the one who led the way for his baptism as an Orthodox believer!
In the coup that overthrew Emperor Peter, although Bishop Vasily did not directly intervene, he secretly supported his coup.
It turned out that he had received a lot of help from Bishop Vasily. Otherwise, the entire theocracy would have scolded him to death.
"Immediately gather everyone and follow me to welcome the archbishop!”Catherine II said.
After a while, she led everyone to meet the old bishop. As the leader of the Orthodox Church in St. Petersburg, Vassily's power and status were no lower than those of the dukes and archdukes.
"Bishop Vasily, welcome…What brings you here?”Catherine smiled.
"It's His Majesty and Baron Wester. I heard that the baron was injured because of His Majesty?”The bishop glanced at Yang Yin's bandaged arm.
It was unbelievable that he could still play the piano with such injuries!
"It's my honor, Lord Vassily!”Yang Yin quickly took off his hat and bowed in greeting!
"Very good young man. Can I call you Wester?”
"Sure, it's my honor!”Yang Yin said humbly.
"Alright, Wester. I've heard your piano performance and watched your opera at the St. Petersburg Grand Ring Theater. I like all your works. If I'm lucky enough to ask you to compose a piece for St. Petersburg's Eastern Orthodox Church, it would be an honor for the entire Orthodox Church!”
