The king had indeed wanted to suppress the prestige of the temple in the Dalita Kingdom for a long time. In a place where the common people respected it more than he did, its existence would only be an eyesore, so he was happy to see Bev's complaint come to fruition.
However, the king saw the jealousy in Bev's eyes and smiled lovingly on her face, but in his heart he kicked her out of Cyril's future wife's choice.
A woman who wants to hold down another woman just because her lover pays more attention to her without giving her any chance to get up is not suitable to be a duchess.
"Thanks to Miss Bev this time, otherwise I wouldn't have known that the saint in the temple was bewitched by the devil."
Yes, what Bev told the king was that Yu Shu was bewitched by the devil. After all, Yu Shu is a noble or a saint. If she is said to be a devil, does it mean that the king and the bishop are both blind and cannot even distinguish the devil? come out?
Bev didn't know that the king was going to use her to deal with the temple, so she thought she believed her words, and loosened her tense hands.
"That's my job."
Bev is a member of the temple, and now she has to deal with the saint of the temple, which is not what she should do.
The king smiled, and then a knight came in and signaled to him. After the king asked Bev to be sent out of the palace, the knight brought a man in.
That person was Cyril.
"If you were just a step slower, you would have met Bev." The king's tone was relaxed, as if he was very close to Cyril.
Cyril didn't pay attention to the king's teasing, he spoke eagerly.
"King, please don't listen to Bev's nonsense. Yu Shu has divine power and is in the temple. How could she be bewitched by the devil?"
Divine messengers have the ability to purify demons, not to mention that as a saint, Yu Shu's divine power is much stronger than ordinary divine messengers. No matter how daring the devil is, he will not attack her.
The king naturally knows this, but is it important?
What he wants is to subvert the status of the temple. Does it matter whether he is wronged or not?
"The Temple of Cyril should not be above the royal family." The king said this calmly while sitting on the throne.
Cyril knew that the king would not change his determination to take the opportunity to renovate the temple, so his face turned pale and he murmured.
"She is innocent."
The king's eyes were indifferent, "Bev has already let many nobles know about this matter. Is Cyril going to abandon the royal family's face for a woman?"
Cyril was silent, not daring to say another word.
That night, with Cyril feeling guilty and Bev waiting anxiously, the bishop entered the palace.
No one knew what deal the bishop and the king had reached that night. They only knew that the matter of Yu Shu was quietly suppressed. The king did not force the temple to deal with Yu Shu, and the bishop announced the time for the selection of the God's Favored Ones.
The news of the selection of God's Favored Ones made the Dalita Kingdom lively. Except for a few people who were confused, everyone else was waiting for this day to arrive with anticipation.
Cyril was glad that the king gave up this plan. However, Cyril was alienated from Bev due to her previous behavior. In addition, the king had arranged many things for him recently, so Cyril did not go to see Bev.
So much so that she didn't know that Bev was beaten on the night of the meeting between the bishop and the king, and she lay in bed for several days, unable to get down.
The day of selection for the God's Favored Ones came soon with everyone's expectations. Both nobles and commoners cherished this opportunity and came to the square where the selection was held early. After paying a sum of gold coins, they lined up to wait in line to touch the crystal ball for the test.
Yu Shu arrived neither early nor late. She lined up with the envoys wearing a holy robe. Even though she wore the same robe as them, she could not hide her beautiful face of white jade under the holy robe.
