"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
After Wang Gui left, the Pope angrily smashed everything in the VIP reception room.
However, he still felt that the anger in his heart had not been vented at all!
Li Chengdao's sudden move made him extremely angry, almost losing his rationality from the anger.!
"Making Sophia the pope, and then marrying Anna to suppress Sophia…This is shameless!!”
The Pope gritted his teeth, the fury in his eyes almost spurting out.
He had thought that Li Chengdao's choice of marriage was an opportunity for the Holy See. Who knew that he wanted to seize power from him!
What made him even angrier was that Li Chengdao's method was an open scheme. He could not find a way to counter it at all!
Choose to fight to the death?
If he really did that, the Da Qian Empire would be in big trouble, but the Holy See would definitely be destroyed!
At that time, blood would flow like a river!
The fish died, but the net did not necessarily break!
Thus, just as Wang Gui had said, he simply could not refuse, even if he knew what they were planning.
"How long has it been, and he can't wait to take control of the Church. He won't give us any chance to breathe."
"I can't let Sophia and Anna know the truth about this. Otherwise, they will be in danger in the future.”
The Pope's eyes were gloomy as he slowly accepted this reality.
He suddenly thought of a Chinese saying.
He was the fish on the chopping board, and now he was a dead fish on the chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.
How sad.
.........
After Wang Gui made a trip to the headquarters of the Church, the Pope was forced to accept the order.
Soon, under the influence of the Holy See and the Imperial Court, two shocking pieces of news spread throughout the empire.
The Pope was about to step down, and the new Pope of the Holy See would be Queen Sophia!
Princess Anna was brought into the harem.
Become the concubine of the Holy Emperor!
Of the two pieces of news, the second was still acceptable, but the first was too shocking.
Not only did it cause a huge reaction among the people, but it also caused a huge wave within the Holy See.
Ever since the establishment of the Holy See, all the popes had been male. There had never been a precedent of a female pope.
But now, the first female Pope was about to appear, which completely violated the rules of the Holy See!
However, the imperial court quickly gave an explanation.
"Queen Sophia is the candidate appointed by His Majesty the Holy Emperor. She is blessed by the gods and is fully qualified to be the Pope.”
This was a statement issued by the Imperial Court.
After this statement was released, the opposition and doubts of the Church and the people were much smaller.
Although the rules of the Holy See were deeply rooted in everyone's hearts, Li Chengdao, who had become a new faith, also had a great prestige.
The King of Gods, the God who descended.
With these two halos recognized by the Holy See, no one could question his authority.
Anyone who doubted him would be doubting the Holy See.
.........
Seven days later.
Constantinople, Holy Cathedral.
The Holy Cathedral was the largest church in the Holy See, and it was also the holy land of the Holy See.
Only the most devout believers could come here to pray and worship.
Usually, the ones who supported the Mass here were at least the Red-robed Archbishops. Even the Pope often came here to deliver the Good News to the believers.
Other than that, all the emperors of Byzantine Empire were crowned here.
The previous popes were also crowned here.
One could imagine the status of the Holy Cathedral.
Today was Sunday, the legendary Day of the Resurrection of Jesus. It was also the holiest day.
Queen Sophia's coronation ceremony was to be held today.
In the Holy Church's headquarters, which was only one street away from the Holy Cathedral, Queen Sophia had just changed into the magnificent Pope's robe.
Queen Sophia's appearance was mature and beautiful. When she was paired with the luxurious robe, she gave off an inexplicable sense of holiness, making people want to defile her.
Her figure was extremely good. Even the loose divine robe could not hide her mature and voluptuous figure.
However, when she looked at herself in the mirror wearing the pope's robe, Queen Sophia seemed a little uneasy.
"Father, why did His Majesty the Emperor choose me to be Pope? I-I can't do it."
There was panic in Queen Sophia's beautiful eyes.
She had a weak personality and did not have any opinions. A few days ago, when she heard from the Pope that she was going to become the new Pope, she was very surprised and took a lot of effort to digest the news.
"Don't worry, you can do it."
Seeing his daughter's reaction, the Pope couldn't help but comfort her, but he sighed inwardly.
You guys have really chosen an extremely suitable target to control.
Princess Anna was also present today. She looked at her mother, who was at a loss, with a complicated expression.
She could vaguely guess why Li Chengdao wanted to make her mother the new pope and marry her, but she could do nothing.
"Dang-dang-"
At this moment, two heavy bells rang.
The Pope looked out of the window, took a deep breath, and said to Queen Sophia,""It's almost time. Come with me to the Holy Cathedral in the carriage.”
"Yes."
Queen Sophia nodded and left with the Pope.
.........
Outside the Holy Cathedral.
Carriages were parked all over the empty space. Many people and believers were gathered around the cathedral. They looked at the towering cathedral with reverence.
After the bell rang, a magnificent guard of honor suddenly appeared at the end of the street.
A carriage pulled by four white horses was in front of them. On it stood Queen Sophia and the Pope.
Behind the carriage were the Church's guards, bishops, and other clergymen.
Queen Sophia stood on the carriage, smiling and waving at the people on both sides.
After seeing Queen Sophia, the people and believers on both sides were stunned by her beauty. They lowered their heads and prayed, showing their sincere respect.
"The new Pope, she is as beautiful as the Virgin Mary."
"His Majesty the Holy Emperor's choice is indeed correct. She is a person blessed by God!”
"I offer the highest respect to His Majesty the Holy Emperor and the new Pope.”
"Please give us a gift!"
.........
The guards of honor soon arrived at the Holy Cathedral.
Queen Sophia tried her best to suppress her nervousness and walked into the cathedral. The Pope followed behind her.
In the Holy Cathedral, the old nobles and members of the Holy See filled all the seats. There were more than a thousand people.
Today was the coronation ceremony of the new pope. They were all there to witness the birth of the new pope.
After Queen Sophia entered, her eyes were immediately attracted by the figure on the altar in the middle of the cathedral.
It was Li Chengdao!
