Chapter 41 Fortunately, I have accomplished my mission!

Yvesette is angry now.

As the third princess of the Saint Laurent Empire, she had not felt threatened for a long time.

Although she was the least popular one, she had rarely encountered such a situation due to her innate powerful strength.

The most common reaction is actually fear.

But today, a blind insect actually ran up to her and shamelessly tried to threaten her.

But that bug came from the Tenli Church.

As one of the three major churches in the Saint Laurent Empire, the Tianli Church has become increasingly autocratic in recent years.

There is even a tendency for it to surpass the Church of Silence and the Church of Abundance.

In terms of the number and power of extraordinary people, the Star Knights they founded within their group is almost catching up with the Royal Guards in terms of size.

Even the top extraordinary people are not much behind.

There are a total of six fifth-level legends, including the newly promoted daughter of the Snow Eagle family.

As for the more powerful sixth-order demigod, it is rumored that a former archbishop of the Tianli Church has been lying in a coffin, relying on various means to maintain his life, and will only show up when the church encounters a catastrophic disaster.

When it comes to sealed objects, the Tenli Church is also terrifyingly terrifying.

There are as many as four Level 0 sealed objects registered, not to mention those that are hidden from the public.

Let’s put aside the extraordinary people and the sealed objects.

Judging from the number of believers alone, the Tianli Church is truly the number one church in the Saint Laurent Empire.

Take the city of Orne for example.

As a border city, it has a population of 800,000, about a quarter of whom are followers of the Tenli Church.

No wonder they are no longer as humble as they once were.

But the problem is that Ivester is a member of the royal family, and now they dare to disrespect even the royal family.

She sneered when she thought of the conditions proposed by the clergyman.

By the way, the guy came to see her today and what he wanted was related to Duke Tyrus.

As governor of the southern provinces, he had grown increasingly dissatisfied with these churches in recent years.

Due to the empire's weak control over the south, coupled with its proximity to the border and the demon battlefield, wars have occurred frequently over the years. Many cities lack control and deterrence, and there is a tendency for them to become lawless areas.

The more this happens, the harder life becomes for ordinary civilians.

The harder life is, the more we need some spiritual sustenance.

Therefore, the faith of various major churches began to grow wildly in such fertile soil.

Tenli Church is one of them.

Because this force is so huge, even official institutions such as the city council and the Public Security Bureau in places like Orne City dare not act rashly.

Or perhaps, because of the complicated relationships and the temptation of interests, they choose to stand on the same side as the church.

Let me tell you something very funny.

The royal family has not received population taxes from these border cities for several years, and the total amount is a huge sum.

Those churches often band together to fool people with tax breaks.

But the lives of ordinary people did not become better because they paid less taxes.

In fact, they donated five or six times as much money to the church in order to be true to their faith.

As the governor of the southern province, Duke Tyreus came to Orne to deal with these trivial matters.

Collect taxes!

Collect taxes!

It's still collecting taxes! This is also one of the reasons why Duke Tyrus doesn't want to see Yvesette.

It's really too busy.

This is not a battlefield. We can't allow the army to force its way through just because those parishes don't pay taxes.

If he really did this, he would be dismissed as governor tomorrow.

Perhaps they had sensed something, and after learning that Duke Tyrus had personally come to the city of Orne, the churches began to get restless.

So the Tianli Church sent someone to meet Yvesette.

In the end, they parted on bad terms.

It's ridiculous.

Those idiots actually wanted her, a princess, to fight Duke Tyrus on behalf of the church.

Or, they could stir up some trouble to muddy the waters in Orne City, delaying the tax inspection for a while and making it easier for them to transfer their property.

In return, they will "generously" provide Yvesthe with 50,000 gold coins of royal selection funds.

This princess is only worth 50,000 gold coins? Yvesette felt that her intelligence was insulted.

What's more, everyone knew that she came to Orne City this time to make friends with Duke Tyrus.

The fact that such conditions can be proposed can only mean that the person behind the scenes is either stupid or evil.

Yvesette was already very unhappy, but who knew that guy would dare to threaten her.

"Your Highness, if you need help with the more than 300 innocent people outside the city, the church will definitely support you. I hope you will consider it carefully. Otherwise, if it takes too long, something unexpected might happen."

On the surface he seemed very sincere, but his last sentence gave away his true colors.

Whatever they were thinking, Yvestre took that as a threat.

I have already sentenced the guy in front of me and those idiots to death in my heart.

She actually wanted to kill the guy on the spot, which was in line with her character.

But on second thought, are those people in the Tianli Church really that stupid?

Knowing that such a condition would make her angry, he still sent such a fool to meet her? Could it be that he hoped that she would kill someone here, make the matter worse, and confuse the public by pretending to be a victim?

With this thought in mind, Iviste temporarily suppressed the murderous intent in her heart.

But no matter what, the more than 300 civilians stranded outside the city are indeed a big trouble.

After all, this might be the trap set for her by the Tenli Church and the City Council.

But she had to fall into the trap.

This gave her a growing headache.

I don't know if that guy has any solution, so I'm just trying anything desperate.

After all, this is a major matter concerning the people's livelihood, and it cannot be resolved by relying on quick wits and scheming.

But now, it seems that we have no choice but to believe.

Trust that guy to create another surprise.

But three days is still too short. Even if we deal with fifty people a day, it will take about a week.

So in fact, Iveste had already prepared herself mentally for their temporary failure.

If Lynn came and begged her for a few days' grace, Yvesette would not refuse.

But I will take this opportunity to give him a good beating and completely suppress his arrogance.

Yvesette picked up the teacup with a cold expression and took a sip.

Then he caught a glimpse of Lynn sneaking in from the door, looking very stealthy.

After seeing this guy, Yvesette's mood eased a lot.

I don’t know exactly why.

"What's up?"

As if she had guessed the purpose of his visit, Yvesette said with dignity.

The next second, Lin En knelt on one knee and presented a stack of papers in his hand.

"Your Highness, these are the extraordinary contracts signed by the refugees stranded outside the city." Lin En said solemnly, "There are 312 people in total, and 311 people have signed."

"Except for one villain who resisted stubbornly and was shot dead on the spot by me, the rest are all here. Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission!"

His voice was so loud that it seemed as if he wanted the entire manor to hear it.

Even the maid passing by the door subconsciously stopped to look, thinking that something happy had happened.

Yvesette looked at him in a bit of surprise.

"What did you say?"
