Chapter 308 Six months later(1/2)

The saint coughed a little embarrassedly when she saw this. Because of her habits, she basically looked for her in the main hall for someone else, and she didn't have to knock on the door and came in directly without knocking on the door.

After all, the real private matter in her heart is her relationship with Shinia, and no one else is afraid of being seen.

However, at this time, the personal servant saw that he was playing with his former childhood friend, and he still felt a little shy.

Betina quickly sat down.

The servant of the god respectfully said, "Sorry, Saint, Miss Betina... Something happened outside the temple, so I came down to ask Saint, but I don't know what to do."

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

"There are people outside the temple asking for a visit, saying that they are guilty and want to enter the temple to pray for you."

The Saint frowned: "Didn't I say that the temple will not be officially opened today?"

"I told her the same thing, but she didn't want to leave. I advised her many times, but she still didn't want to. She also said that she knew you... Seeing that her face was a little depressed and sad, it was snowing outside, and she couldn't bear it, so she came in and asked you."

The servant of God did not say that the other party knew the saint, but said that the saint knew her, and the meaning was different.

The Saint was puzzled: "What's the name of that person?"

"She said that her name is Ai Lu, and said that you have seen her in the capital."

"Ai Lu?!"

Betina, the saint exclaimed in unison.

This surprised the divine servant. It seemed that Betina knew Ailu too.

The saint immediately ordered: "Let Ai Lu enter... No, take her to the side hall and don't let her catch a cold."

The servant of God responded and left.

The saint looked sad, his eyes were a little sloppy, and he murmured: "I originally wanted to wait until Princess Shiniyyi's business before looking for Ailu, but I didn't expect her to come to me directly..."

Betina didn't hear clearly: "Sister Saint, what did you say?"

"Ah... nothing." The saint shook his head with pursed his lips, "You should have known Ai Lu for a while, right?"

"It's more than just meeting her...I've become friends with her."

"Become a friend?" The saint was stunned.

That means Betina has become a girl who is in the corner of others?

If Betina and Ailu are not particularly familiar with each other, even if Betina and Xu Mu are married and Ailu is forced to leave, it will not be blamed on Betina. After all, Betina is considered to be the king's order.

But...if the two of them are friends, that means another word.

Betina smiled bitterly: "Yes... I was here to look for you today, and the last question was about Ailu... If I marry Xu Mu, what will Ailu do?"

The saint's face was in a difficult position, and she felt that the difficulty of handling Ai Lu's matters had reached a higher level.

Seeing that the Saint did not answer, Betina asked again: "Article said that she came to pray for sin. Did she do anything wrong? But it's impossible. She didn't do anything out of the way in the academy, and she is gentle and kind, and her personality is similar to that of the Saint Sister, unless..."

Betina didn't continue to say that because this happened a few days ago, Ai Lu killed more than ten guild hunters' lives, but she felt that it would be better not to say it out for now, so she stopped talking.

"Praying for sin is just a saying... If she said she did not do anything wrong, it may not be." The Saint sighed, "Isn't Hinia wrong just because of the thing she did wrong?"

Betina couldn't help but be surprised: "What happened between Shinia and Ailu?"

"The engagement between you and Xu Mu was signed by Shinia before Xu Mu came to the Magic Academy."

Betina wondered: "No, shouldn't Xu Mu hides it from me? He doesn't look like that. He doesn't seem to know about it since the beginning."

"It's not Xu Mu who hides it from you..." The saint gritted his teeth slightly, "It's Ai Lu who hides it from you, Xu Mu, and everyone!"

"What?"

"This may be the reason why Ai Lu said she was coming to pray for sin..." The saint sighed, "I carved a magic seal for Xu Mu at that time, and I didn't know about it, otherwise I would stop it... Shinya talked to Ai Lu in private, indicating that she wanted you to get engaged with Xu Mu, and promised Ai Lu the benefits and let her leave Xu Mu."

"Shinia...how could she do this?"

Betina's pale blue pupils were trembling, and her face was full of disbelief.

She never thought that there were many hidden details behind her marriage with Xu Mu.

"Ai Lu agreed... She fled from the Kingdom of Kailie until now, and always thought she could live with Xu Mu with peace of mind. Unexpectedly, when she arrived in the Kingdom of Heine, she and Xu Mu would be forcibly separated by Shinia before she could live together..."

"Did Ailu flee from Kailie Kingdom?"

There are many sayings about the down-and-out nobles. Not every down-and-out noble is a fugitive, which surprised Bettena.

"Because of all kinds of things..." The Saint looked at Betina and said seriously: "It seems that you are not angry that Ai Lu hides you."

Betina pursed her lips and shook her head: "No, Saint Sister... I don't know what other people think about it, but with this time when I spend with Ailu, I know her kindness. She is a kind and faithful girl. She always cares about others when doing things. She would rather suffer losses than deliberately trouble others..."

"But now you really deceived Hiniya and the king of Hiniya. Take a step back and say how bad Chiniya's decision was at that time, but Ailu really accepted Hiniya's deal."

"Does the Saint Sister think Ai Lu is willing? Love can't become a bargaining chip for trading!" Betina bit her lower lip, feeling sad: "When Ai Lu was by Xu Mu, she looked at Xu Mu's eyes. I kept paying attention. It was trust and satisfaction, as if as long as she stood by Xu Mu, she felt that everything in the world was beautiful! I understand how much Ai Lu liked Xu Mu!"

The saint sighed, pulled up the sacrificial ceremonial obedience to the bench, and slowly walked to the palace platform.

She stretched out her white little hand and gently put on a white silk sacrificial hat for herself, straightened it, and then picked up the temple scepter from the shelf on the temple platform.

"I understand, Betina, I understand what you said... without any concealment, the reason why Ai Lu takes up half of me when the first stop of the Temple Tour was the Magic Academy."

The other half is Princess Shiniy, and the Saint added silently in her heart.

"Half for Ailu?" Betina was slightly surprised.

"Yes... the tea party of the capital aristocrats ended. All the nobles in the basic kingdom knew that Xu Mu was a man with the seven-type magic seals innate awakening. There was no need to explain too much what they represented. The Heine Palace had been harmonious for many days because of this."

The Saint paused for a moment when talking about Heine's court affairs. After all, the Temple should not be interrogated in this matter, nor should it be discussed too deeply.

"After all, it is a fact that Xu Mu has not fully grown up. The reason why Shinia has been concealing the position of Xu Mu as the captain of the Cavaliers was finally revealed. At the end of the tea party, Shinia had already issued a command to spread the matters about his talent before Xu Mu returned to the capital after returning to the academy."

Betina nodded and then asked, "What does this have to do with Ailu?"

"The marriage between you and Xu Mu is certain, and this is something that cannot be changed. However, during these times, Shinia always thought that Xu Mu knew about this and that you were getting along well in the academy. But until the nobles of the Kingdom gathered in the capital, someone brought out news from the academy to Shinia, and immediately learned that Ailu was deliberately concealing it, which was a deception."

Betina couldn't help but subconsciously thought of Mel, guessing whether it was Mel's words to Shinia.

The saint looked at Betina and said lightly: "Shinia is very angry."

Seeing this, Betina was about to speak for Ai Lu, but was interrupted by the saint.

"Most of the blame for Ailu's mistakes is to Shinia."

This is the Saint who said this, and if Betina hadn't dared to say that.

"Betina, you're right. Love cannot be used as a bargaining chip for trading. That day after she confessed to me, I explained her attitude to her... But you also know that I and Shinia are people of two identities after all, and her ideas are completely different from mine."

Betina was not surprised. Although the three of them were childhood friends and were intimate, they could not understand the idea of ​​being in their position without being in their position.

"Shinia listened to my persuasion and was worried about Xu Mu's loyalty."

Betina wondered: "Not it? You must know that Xu Mu was led by Shinia to become a nobleman. Not many people have had such an honor since the founding of the country..."

"Indeed, even if Shinia knew that the nobles of the kingdom would get close to Xu Mu, those who knew Tora would definitely win over Xu Mu, but she was not worried about Xu Mu's rebellion..." The saint sighed slowly, "But if Ai Lu's matter is not handled well now, this might indirectly affect Xu Mu."

"This..." The Saint said nothing.

The Saint is emotional. She values ​​the relationship between Xu Mu and Ailu, while Betina is rational. She knows that Xu Mu and Ailu are people who are suffering from difficulties together. How deep the relationship is in it is self-evident.

Betina also deeply understands how much Xu Mu attaches importance to Ai Lu.

If Ai Lu's departure is improperly handled, it will indirectly affect Xu Mu's allegiance to Shinia, it is not surprising...

"But that's all about Shinia's thoughts, I'm different." The saint stroked the temple scepter in his hand and said seriously: "Love is sacred and a treasure worthy of the people's swearing to protect. From the beginning, Shinia was wrong. But even if she was wrong, Shinia was the king. Her identity cannot make her apologize to Ailu, so I will come to comfort Ailu in person..."

In fact, the matter of appeasement of Ai Lu was imposed on her by the saint herself, not by Shinia.

Her relationship with Shinia is a taboo. Even if her relationship is like this, how can she treat other people's feelings like this? This is something that the emotional saint cannot accept, so she wants to come to the Magic Academy to try to give Ai Lu a chance and also to herself a chance...

"Then...Sister Saint, what are you going to do later? How do you say to Ai Lu?"

"We have to know this after meeting..." The saint sighed and shook his head.

"Betina, you leave first. When I'm busy with all the things, we still have time to tell our old memories."

Seeing this, Betina couldn't say anything else. She slowly stood up, her face full of wasted hesitation. In fact, she seemed to be secretly staying in the main hall and eavesdropping on the conversation between the two, but she knew that such things could not be done.

After all, this is in the temple...

Betina said goodbye to the Saint, and left the main hall. By time, Ailu is in the side hall now and will not collide with her.

Seeing Betina leave, the main hall became empty again, and the Saint's expression was a little depressed, and no one understood her persistence and care about feelings.

"Love means not jealousy, love means not boasting, not arrogant, not doing shameful things, not seeking one's own benefit, not getting angry easily, not counting human evil, not liking to be unrighteous, only like truth..."

The saint silently recited the temple dogma again and sorted out his emotions.

After adjusting her condition, she called the divine servant who served outside the door and invited Ailu to the main hall.

...

Ai Lu was wearing a slim uniform in the Magic Academy, with a lonely expression. When she walked, she felt like she was confused and like a soul-lost person.

When she came to the main hall, what caught her eye was the most eye-catching statue of the god in the hall and the saint with a gentle smile.

Under the light, the colorful glazed windows spread beautiful light.

The saint held the temple scepter, and the white sacrificial garments on her body made people look sacred. She raised her hand slightly and called softly.
