"Oh?" Qian Yeming raised an eyebrow: "Tell me about it!"
******************The dispute over the throne*****************
Inside the Temple of the Gods in the Nanyue Imperial Palace, everything had already been cleaned up, waiting for the arrival of the Great Priest of Light.
Although the Divine Religion has many followers, its membership has always been small, and it has always maintained an extremely mysterious veil. Even the Queens of various countries, the Saints of the Divine Religion, are probably not familiar with the Divine Religion.
Some of these saints came from official families, while others came from ordinary families, but they all grew up in their own circles of life and were no different from ordinary people.
Once they were chosen by the Archbishop of the Divine Religion, they would immediately become saints, enter the Eastern Palace, and be promoted to empress. Their only mission was to serve the emperor well.
Every year on the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, the Archbishop would come to them bearing a shimmering bottle, and they would lose consciousness during that time. When they regained consciousness, the Archbishop had departed, and the High Priest of Light would return to the cult with the nation's prayer tablets. Soon after, their wishes—praying for rain, the immediate end of the plague, and a good harvest in the coming year—would generally be granted.
The Divine Religion rarely interferes in the exchanges and wars between nations. According to the Divine Religion, desire and war are the driving forces behind humanity's rapid growth and development. As a Divine Religion, it is inconvenient for it to interfere too much.
However, if anyone is found to be detrimental to the religion or disrespectful to it, they will be severely punished by the High Priest, such as disease, flood, drought, plague, poverty, etc.
The Northern Wei Dynasty was a typical example of punishing high priests with torture.
The Northern Wei Dynasty had very little rainfall in a year, and the crop yields were poor. In the summer, there were either floods or extreme droughts, and in the winter there were severe ice and snow. It can be said that the Northern Wei Dynasty was a place abandoned by God.
In order to obtain the blessing of the Divine Religion, the emperors of various countries were not stingy in canonizing the saint chosen by the Divine Religion as queen and built the Divine Religion Temple in the imperial palace.
Although the Saint can only see the Archbishop once a year, and the Archbishop never stays in the palace for long, the High Priest of Light can see him two or three times more often, so this Divine Hall is where the High Priest of Light resides.
The Five Nations Chamber of Commerce is a biennial event of great importance, and the Grand Priest of Light is also invited to attend. This time, the Five Nations Chamber of Commerce was held in South Vietnam, and the Grand Priest of Light arrived at the Divine Temple two days before the Chamber of Commerce officially began.
As a saint, Queen Xia Muwan had been waiting at the Meridian Gate with the saints early in the morning. After the High Priest of Light arrived at the Nanyue Palace, he moved into the Temple of the Gods under the personal greeting and guidance of the Queen.
After entering the Divine Religion Temple, the High Priest of Light popularized the Divine Religion's doctrine of compassion for all living beings to all the saints, and then asked about the Emperor of Nanyue and the situation of the court.
After a brief greeting, the High Priest of Light prepared to practice, and the Queen immediately dismissed everyone.
"High Priest, Wan'er has an unwelcome request."
"You are the saint of the Divine Religion. Unless you do anything detrimental to the Divine Religion, the Divine Religion will protect you. Just say it." The High Priest of Light spoke while meditating with his eyes closed. He looked quite like an immortal.
After hearing the High Priest's words, the Queen's eyes lit up and she asked, "What if Wan'er wants her son to be the Emperor?"
The High Priest of Light frowned slightly, opened his eyes, and stared at the Queen fiercely.
