Chapter 521: Restricting the Pope, Lu Yun’s Plan



"Lu Yun, please think of a solution for me. You are so smart. As a messenger of the gods, you must know how to curb the power of the Holy See and make it grow stronger again."

Lu Yun smiled calmly. He certainly knew the answer and had already thought of a solution a long time ago.

"I remember telling you about this."

"You should know that when you, as the queen, are crowned, you must obtain the Pope's approval, which is equivalent to obtaining the approval of the gods. I think this is a restriction on you, and your advantages naturally disappear."

"The Pope feels he has an advantage because you have to get his approval when you are crowned king."

"Gradually, your queen's rights will be restricted by the Pope."

After hearing these words, Juliana was stunned. This was indeed the truth, but how should she solve it? How could she prevent the Pope from participating in the process of her coronation as king?

You know, the kings of their Holy Empire have always had to be approved by the Pope before they could become kings. Without this step, it would simply not work.

First, he needs the recognition of the parliament, then the recognition of the Pope, and then the recognition among the nobles. Then he can become a real king. It is still very troublesome.

Moreover, there are various restrictions after becoming a king, which is a natural disadvantage.

"Then tell me how we can prevent the Pope from getting involved in this process, so that I, the king, don't have to be subject to so many restrictions.

I'm really afraid now that the next Pope will make a comeback and affect the other descendants of our Holy Empire. Wouldn't that make all our efforts in vain? "

Lu Yun pondered for a while and couldn't help but recall a historical anecdote. There was a religious leader who, after his death, all the children born on that day would be found and then chosen to become the new leader's successors.

However, if there are many children born on the same day, a drawing of lots must be conducted to determine the winner, which is equivalent to God's will. At this time, the emperor needs to draw lots.

It also represents the emperor's supreme power, and the emperor represents the will of heaven.

Therefore, the development of this leader can be greatly restricted. After all, the leaders are selected by the emperor, so they are naturally different from others.

"It's simple. The next Pope needs your approval, Queen! Or rather, the approval of the gods."

"Isn't there no Pope in the Vatican now? Then we can use this opportunity to choose a new Pope.

Let the selection of the Pope be entirely under the control of you, the Queen, and there will be no problems in the future."

When Zhu Lina heard this, she was thoughtful and still didn't understand what this meant, but she just had to do what Lu Yun said.

"I know I'll feel very safe with you by my side."

“By the way, I heard that after this king promulgated the law of slave freedom, only a small number of nobles were willing to accept this law and were willing to admit it, while others were unwilling.

They didn't take the initiative to look for the slaves, and if the slaves did go to ask for it, they would be beaten!"

"This won't do! I've personally issued a law, and yet they're unwilling to acknowledge or follow it. How can this be allowed?"

Lu Yun nodded gently and explained, "That's right. These nobles are unwilling to admit this matter and are unwilling to follow the law. Otherwise, it proves that they do not approve of the queen."

"They are effectively disobeying the Queen, so you must uphold your authority and dignity as the Queen and let them know the consequences of not following your instructions!"

Zhu Lina agreed with this matter, but she still had to give it a chance. After all, she had been busy dealing with the power transfer in the Holy Empire in recent days. She would only feel at ease after replacing most of the official positions with her own people.

I am really worried that the other party will make a comeback.

However, to be honest, the control of the Knights' Corps is still not in the hands of the Queen, and the Queen cannot obtain this military power since the establishment of the Holy Empire and the existence of the Parliament.

The military power of their Holy Empire has always been in the hands of the Knight Commander!

They believed that once the king took control of the military power, it would have a huge impact, so it should be done by professionals.

Juliana was not in a hurry at all. After all, most of the knight corps were stationed in the east!

Because there are small countries of all sizes on the eastern border. Although those small countries are not strong, they often invade their borders, so the Knight Corps is stationed there.

There is also a small part of the knight legion stationed in the city of Athens. After all, it is the capital of their Holy Empire, so naturally there needs to be military deployment.

At night, Zhu Lina finally finished her busy day. She looked extremely tired, and Lu Yun was always by her side, giving her all kinds of advice.

He did not choose to leave, but seeing that the matter was almost resolved, Lu Yun stood up and prepared to leave the castle. Suddenly, Zhu Lina hugged him from behind.

"It's so late, are you still leaving?"

"Don't forget what kind of relationship we have. Why can't we stay here?"

"Just stay here tonight. Are you afraid of Zhao Yueyao?"

Lu Yun said in a tough tone, "Nonsense, how could I be afraid of her?"

"We..." Zhu Lina suddenly remembered something, her face flushed slightly, and she felt embarrassed, "It seems like we haven't done that kind of thing for a long time."

"Should I do something?"

Lu Yun was extremely embarrassed when he heard this, and he was helpless. "Are you sure, Your Majesty?"

"Call me Juliana!"

"Okay, okay, Nana, are you sure you want me to stay? I'm worried your body can't take it, and you look very tired."

"Or maybe just forget it."

Zhu Lina pouted her lips proudly, her face flushed red, and said in a very tough tone: "Nonsense!"

"I don't!"

"How could my body not be able to handle it?"

"Alright, I'll fight this monster of yours for three hundred rounds."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yun picked up Zhu Lina and came to Changda's side. It must be said that the queen in front of him looked extremely charming, with fair skin, a high nose bridge, and golden hair, which made people feel a kind of holy light.

What's more, the queen's figure is also very perfect, which makes Lu Yun very excited. He smiled and said,

"Nana, tonight I will let you know how powerful I am as your husband!"

"I will make you wish you were dead, but you can't live."

"Really?! This king, I'd love to see if you have the ability."
