Chapter 162 I'm Going To Go

The entry of Pope Innocent IV finally ended in the former Byzantine Empire Palace, where there were already new Templars, providing the strongest protection for the Pope. The "New Templars" will be the new city defense force in Constantinople, and at this time the army of the Chinese Empire had begun to board the ship. This made the locals in Constantinople breathe a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately these guys are leaving!"

The people of Constantinople don’t like the “Chinese Army” very much. Although they did not have more conflicts with the locals when they were in the city except for arresting some people. Even those people were the “Chinese Army” holding the list provided by Bishop Bardoromai, and took the orders one by one to arrest people in late at night. Those who obeyed the orders naturally loaded them into the carriage and politely invited the people to the ship. Those who disobeyed naturally captured the whole family at one time. Although this would make the arrested people feel scared, I believe that when they came to Huaxia Island in the future, they would understand that this was not a bad thing.

Bishop Bardoromai's view of the people also includes another meaning, that is, because these "Chinese Army" are atheists. Strictly speaking, in traditional Chinese culture, especially in Confucianism, the theory of ghosts and gods is not believed. Moreover, in the "Chinese Yulin Army", most of them are recruits supplemented by young and strong men from the Song Dynasty. As for veterans, the military academy should be entered, and the military officers should be appointed to other troops as officers.

In the army with more people in the Song Dynasty, there were naturally more people who did not believe in ghosts and gods, and they did not have much interest in religion. Although the "Huaxia Empire" could enjoy considerable freedom as long as religion did not affect social fairness and did not interfere with national policies under any circumstances.

It is precisely because they are not Christians that even if the people of Constantinople face their strict and fair management, they still don’t have much to accept them easily. However, this is not a matter of the “Chinese Army”. After all, this is not a territory of the “Chinese Empire” and has little to do with them.

The people of Constantinople did not know what they had missed. Perhaps when the "Huaxia Empire" was in the world in the future and implemented a high welfare system in the country, they knew what they had missed.

"Hmph, let these fools go stupid. Anyway, the people we want have already taken the boat away. The rest will do whatever they want, as long as they don't delay our affairs! As for us, our family affairs are enough for us!"

The soldiers of the "Huaxia Yulin Army" all had such an idea when boarding the ship. They would then take a boat to Alexandria. Then take a carriage to Suez City from there, and then take a boat back to "Huaxia Island" from there.

After completing this, Zhao Fubo brought his strength back to China. With this goal, staying here at this moment naturally would not be much attractive to Zhao Fubo. But Zhao Fubo cannot leave now. This place is a very important and critical place for the "Huaxia Empire" to dump goods and purchase raw materials into the world. If the matter here is not completed, unexpected changes may occur in a few years.

After the army of the "Huaxia Yulin Army" boarded the ship, Pope Innocent IV also quietly breathed a sigh of relief. As the saying goes, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs and they don't know what they do. He has been quietly worried in his heart that if the emperor of the "Huaxia Empire" did not keep his word, what would happen? Pope Innocent IV would not consider it with the combat ability of the "New Templars".

When he had just arrived here, he had heard everything from his envoy, Bishop Bardoromay, his special envoy. When he heard this, Pope Innocent IV had already sat on the double chair in the palace, but he was sitting in the middle, with those noble "holy objects" placed beside him. In front of him was Bishop Bardoromay who was kissing his hand.

"Your Majesty, if you hadn't had a pair of wise eyes, I would have been worried that the souls of the Chinese would betrayed the devil. Their cannons could be shot far, far away. I have seen them personally on the towers when they were dealing with the Syrian warships..."

Bishop Bardoromai made Pope Innocent IV somewhat unhappy and impatient. After all, the "Huaxia Empire" was a powerful force he invited. If they were the devil, would he be the pope who cooperated with the devil? Moreover, the power of the "Huaxia Empire" large "Hanwu"-class warships was not clear about the power of the "Huaxia Empire" naval guns.

"Well, Your Excellency Bishop, as my special envoy, your mission has been accomplished very well. Not only has you protected this city, but you have also helped me clear out the people in this city who are disloyal to Jesus Christ. In order to commend your achievements, I plan to let you return to your diocese importantly. After all, if the bishop in a diocese is not present, it will definitely affect the work there!"

Pope Innocent IV made Bishop Bardoromay realize that he had just said the wrong thing. In fact, he just described it just now, and had no other intention. But if you think about it, you will find that his words just now seemed to be accusing Pope Innocent IV in front of you, as if colluding with the devil. The color on his face changed a little, and the regret in his heart was hard to describe in words.

When I returned to my diocese, I obviously had to continue to compete with the secular management power of the Holy Roman Emperor Frederick II. Although there was obviously a transaction between the top leaders, I believed that the benefits brought by that transaction would not fall on me. I wanted to say a few words to retain my current status. As long as the status of this special envoy can be retained, there may be a better future in the future.

Unfortunately, Pope Innocent IV had already begun to appease the nobles of Constantinople and did not give him a chance to interrupt.

"You have endured the attack of the Syrians and also been robbed by him, but your loyalty has already shown everything. Now, none of the royal families of the Byzantine Empire remain, and in order to prevent the pagan devils from invading again, I declare that at this time it will become the seat of the Holy Church. Because as the Pope, I have the obligation to treat others with preferential treatment, and this is the duty given to me by God!"

In a gentle passage, Constantinople, including the entire Byzantine Empire, became the territory of the Holy See. This made some nobles loyal to the Byzantine Empire feel dissatisfied. So how would Pope Innocent IV treat them?
