Chapter 19 Blood Stained - The Story of 1589-2

She wrote him unabashedly, saying: "I know very well that if you want to be happy, you have to suffer punishment. But I will never agree to suffer for seeing an old lover who has lost her place in my heart." But I'd like to see you again at night and make sense to you. But I'm not asking you to commit a crime, so don't get delusional thinking I'm going to be like someone asking you to kill an insolent fellow, Here's your pay. You don't want to hurt our enemy's lover so badly that it prevents them from entering the garden, so that the nuns we have specially assembled can't see the good show. Don't make a mistake, or you will cancel the most exciting If you don’t play the show, I will only treat you as a boor, and you will never have the slightest trust in me. You know, it is because of this main problem that you lost my friendship.”

The well-prepared night of revenge finally arrived.Rodriguez and Langsilo, with the help of several companions, monitored the whereabouts of Lauronzo and Pierre Antoinette throughout the day.Because Lauronzo and the others were not tight-lipped, Rodrigue and the others knew for sure that the two were going to climb over the wall of the San Libarada Monastery at night.Near the post where sentinels were sent to guard the gate of the monastery lived a wealthy merchant.That night, the rich businessman married his daughter.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lorenzo and Pierre Antoinette, disguised as servants of the rich merchant, gave the post a barrel of wine in the name of the rich merchant at about ten o'clock in the evening.The soldiers happily accepted the gifts.The night was hazy.The two probably climbed over the wall in the middle of the night.So at eleven o'clock, Rodley and Langsilo ambushed near the wall.They were delighted to see a half-drunk soldier take over.In a few minutes, the soldier will fall asleep.

Inside the monastery Philips and Lordrain had seen their enemies Huapina and Celia hiding under a tree near the wall in the garden.It was nearly twelve o'clock when Philips went to wake the Abbot, and it took a lot of talk to get her here, and a lot of effort to make her understand the possibility of the crime she had just exposed. After waiting for more than half an hour, nothing happened.Later, Philips became restless, fearing that he would have a reputation of spreading rumors and slander.The abbot finally said that even if it was true, it should not violate the rules of the Order of San Benoit in order to prove a crime, because nuns are not allowed to enter the garden after sunset.Fortunately, Philips remembered that it was possible to walk from the monastery to the flat roof of the low orange greenhouse without going through the garden.It was close to the gate guarded by the guards.While Philips was busy convincing the dean, Lordran went to wake her aunt up.The pious old nun was vice-principal of the convent.

Although the dean followed Philips to the platform of the citrus greenhouse, he still didn't believe everything she said.Suddenly, she found two nuns standing nine to ten feet below the flat roof.In such a late night, they actually stood outside the dormitory.Her shock and anger are beyond imagination.In the dark night, she did not recognize the two nuns as Huapina and Celia. The abbot cried in a stern tone: "Unruly girl, poor light-boned! Is this how you serve God? You know, great Saint Benoit, your benefactor watches from heaven. You, he will tremble with rage to see you trampling the law. Go to your rooms, for the bell is tolling for retiring. Go to your rooms and pray! Tomorrow morning I will punish you, Wait."

Celia and Huapina were stupefied with horror when they heard the dean's stern, irritated voice very close overhead.At this time, another thing startled the nuns again: eight or nine steps away from them outside the door, there was suddenly the sound of fierce sword fighting.After a while, someone was injured and screamed in pain.Celia and Huapina recognized the voices of Lauronzo and Pierre Antoinette, and they felt as if they were frying inside!They had private keys to the garden gate, so they ran to unlock it.Although the gate is heavy.They also pushed away.Celia was older and stronger, so she rushed out the door first.After a while, she walked in with her lover, Lao Langzuo. Lao Langzuo seemed to be seriously injured, and he could barely support himself. He moaned every step he took, as if he was about to die.Sure enough, after walking a dozen steps in the garden, despite Celia's support, he fell to the ground and died.Celia didn't care about being cautious, and called out to him loudly. Seeing that he didn't respond, she fell on his body and cried bitterly.

All this happened twenty steps away from the flat roof of the small citrus greenhouse.Philipci knew that Lauronzo was dead or about to die, and felt very sorry. She thought: "I caused all this. Rodrigo went mad and killed Lauronzo. He was cruel by nature. At several masquerade balls Lauronzo's horses and servants' uniforms were more beautiful than his, It offended his vanity. He couldn't bear it." Philips supported the dean who was half fainted from fright. After a while, the unfortunate Huapina also entered the garden, and she supported Pierre Antoinette.He also suffered a few fatal blows, and was about to die soon.Everyone present was terrified by this terrible scene, and no one made a sound.Suddenly, Pierre Antoinette said to Huapina: "It was Caesar of the Knights of Malta. I recognized him. He stabbed me, and my sword was stained with his blood."

Don Caesar was the man who had been friends with Huapina before Pierre Antoinette. The young nun appeared to have no regard for her own reputation as she shouted for help from the Virgin Mary and the patron saint.She also called to her valet, not caring that such a shout would wake the entire convent.She was too attached to Pierre Antoinette. She was busy nursing him, sealing his blood and bandaging his wounds.This sincere feeling aroused the sympathy of many nuns.Someone approached the wounded, someone hurried to find a light.Pierre Antoinette was sitting leaning against a laurel tree.Huapina knelt before him and nursed him carefully.He was still able to speak clearly, and related once more how Don Caesar had stabbed him.But suddenly his arms stiffened and he died.

Celia told Huapina to calm down.Once she was sure that Lauronzo was really dead, she seemed to forget about him, remembering the danger around her and dear Huapina. Huapina fainted on top of her lover, and Celia helped her sit up and shook her vigorously to wake her up. Celia saw the dean leaning against the citrus greenhouse flat roof railing, about twelve or fifteen feet above the garden floor.In order not to let the dean hear, she put her mouth against Huapina's ear and whispered to her: "If you don't cheer up, you and I will definitely die. Wake up, and be careful to keep your reputation and safety!" If you want to wallow in pain at this time, you will be thrown into a dark and smelly dungeon and sit there for many years."

At this moment the Superior, supported by Philips, descended into the garden and approached the two unfortunate nuns. Celia said to the dean reservedly and firmly: "For you, dean, if you want to be safe, if you cherish the reputation of the aristocratic monastery, you must keep silent and don't go to the Grand Duke to make trouble. Loud, you, too, had your own sweethearts in the past. People generally think that you are very chaste, and this is where you are better than us. But if you report this to the Grand Duke, there will be a lot of trouble in the city soon, and people will say , the abbot of St. Libarada Monastery was in love when he was young, so he can't manage this monastery well. Abbot, you will destroy us, but you will also destroy yourself. This is more certain as a result of."

The dean gasped uneasily and let out a low exclamation.Celia continued to say to the dean: "Dean, you have to admit that at this time you probably didn't think of what to do to protect the monastery and yourself!" The dean was still panicked and didn't say anything.Celia said again: "First of all, don't say anything. Then, immediately transport these two corpses to a far away place. If things are revealed, you and I will suffer." The poor dean sighed deeply, confused and didn't know how to answer.Philips was gone from her side.It turned out that after she led the abbot to the two unfortunate nuns, she was afraid that they would recognize her, so she walked away quietly.

"Girls, do what you feel must be done, and do what is appropriate." The unfortunate dean finally said.The dire situation made her voice hoarse. "I know how to minimize our shame. But remember that our sins can never be hidden from the eyes of God." Celia didn't pay any attention to what the dean said. "We have no other request, but please remain silent." She interrupted the dean several times and repeated. Madonna, the dean's confidant, came to her side.Celia turned to her again and said: "Please help me, my dear friend! This concerns the reputation of the whole monastery, the life and the reputation of the abbot, because if she makes it public, not only we will If you hate her, a noble family like ours will not let her go in vain." Leaning against an olive tree, Huapina knelt on the ground and wept, unable to help Celia and Madonna. Celia said to her: "You go back to the house. Take care to get the blood off your clothes first. If you want to cry, we will cry together in an hour." With the help of Madonna, Celia first transported the body of her lover and then Pierre Antoinette to Jinshang Street.It is about ten minutes away from the gate of the garden.Fortunately, Celia and the others didn't bump into anyone.The soldiers guarding the garden gates sat dozing off on distant stones.Otherwise, no matter how good their method is, they will not be able to implement it.But before starting to move the corpses, Celia knew about the soldiers.When they came back from the second trip, Celia and her companions were suddenly taken aback. The night was a little lighter, probably around two o'clock in the morning.Three soldiers stood clearly at the gate of the garden.To make matters worse, the garden gate seemed to be closed. Celia said to Madonna: "It must be the chief fool of the abbot. She must have remembered the canon of St. Benoit, so she closed the garden gate. We had to go back to our parents' house. The Grand Duke is so strict and stubborn." Well, my life may be at stake. As for you, Madonna, you are innocent, and you have come to help me with the body at my request. It would be a disgrace to the monastery if the body were left in the garden. Let's hide behind this rock." Two soldiers passed by them just as they were leaving their posts and going back to the post.Celia was delighted to find that they were almost all drunk.They walked and talked.The tall man who had just stood guard at the door said nothing about what had happened during the night.Later, during the pre-trial, he only said that there were some gorgeously dressed people fighting a few steps away from him.In the darkness, he could see seven or eight people.He refrained from getting involved in their fight.Later these people went into the garden of the monastery. After the two soldiers had passed, Celia and Madonna approached the garden gate, and were surprised to find that it was only ajar.It was Philip's doing.At that time, she didn't want Celia and Huapina to recognize herself, so she left the dean and ran to the garden gate.The door was still open then.She was afraid that Rodley would take the opportunity to sneak into the garden to find her.Philips knew he was rash and reckless, and feared that he would drag her into the water to avenge her infidelity.So she has been hiding behind a tree by the door.She heard everything Celia said to the Dean and later to Madonna.Not long after Celia and Madonna carried the corpse out, she heard soldiers coming to change shifts, and... closed the door.Philips left the garden after seeing Celia re-closed the garden gate with her private key and disappeared into the darkness."I'm so glad it finally came out," she thought, and she and Lordran spent the rest of the time wondering what had happened to bring about this tragic result. Fortunately, early the next morning, Philip's maid returned to the monastery, bringing her a long letter from Rodley.In order to show courage, Rodriguez and Langsilo refused to hire assassins to help, as was the custom in Florence at that time, and they personally attacked Lauronzo and Pierre Antoinette.The two sides fought for a long time.Luo Deli and Lang Siluo faithfully carried out their orders, only wanting to slightly injure their opponents, and they always gave in mostly.In fact.They also only stabbed the opponent's arm a few times, and the opponent would never die from this wound.But just as they were about to withdraw from the fight, they were surprised to see an assassin pounce on Pierre Antoinette.From his roar, it can be recognized that he is Caesar of the Knights of Malta.They saw that there were three people on their side and only two people on the other side, and they were injured, so they ran away in a hurry.On this day, when the bodies of the two young men were discovered, the whole city of Florence was shocked.One must know that these two people are one of the richest sons in the city.Because of the noble birth of these two men, their deaths have attracted such attention. Before Fertiland came to power, Tuscany was no more than a province of Spain under François's licentious rule.There are more than a hundred murders per year alone.Lauronzo and Pierre Antoinne belonged to the upper classes.People in this society talk about their deaths. Some people think that they died after a duel, while others think that they were killed by others in revenge. On the second day after the event, the monastery was very peaceful.The vast majority of nuns have no idea what happened.At dawn, before the gardener started working, Madonna went to dig the soil where the blood was stained, removing all the traces.This girl also had a lover, and she did what Celia asked her to do cleverly, without saying anything to the Abbot.To this end, Celia gave her a beautiful diamond cross.Madonna was a very simple girl.She thanked Celia and said, "There is one thing I like more than all the diamonds in the world. Since the arrival of the new dean, I have devoted myself to serving her in order to gain her favor, but she He never offered me a little convenience, let me meet my beloved Yu Liang for a while. The dean made us all suffer. Counting, I haven’t seen Yu Liang for more than four months. I forgot. Mademoiselle Huapina was one of the eight caretaker nuns. She was a good friend of Mademoiselle. There is always something in return for helping others.On the day when it was Huapina's turn to watch the door, could I go out and have a look at Yu Liang?It's okay if you don't let him in. " Celia said to her: "I will help you as much as possible. But Huapina will give me a problem, that is, I have to hide it from the dean. You are used to guarding the dean. You try to leave for a short time She. I believe that if you are not the dean's maid, Huapina will have no difficulty in meeting your request." Celia's words were not without intention. She said to Huapina: "You only cry about your lover, and you don't think about the terrible danger that threatens us. It is impossible for the dean to remain silent. Sooner or later, the Grand Duke will know what happened here. Bishop, we have not changed our minds since becoming a monarch. From a religious point of view, we have committed the most serious crimes. In short, if the Abbot lives, we must die." Huapina wiped his tears and couldn't help shouting: "What do you want to say?" "I mean, I must go to your friend Victor Amanati to get some poison from Belle. The place is famous for its poison. Her mother was poisoned by her husband, and when she died, she left the poison for her. She. Her mother dragged her away for several months, and few people thought she was poisoned. We had to do the same to the dean." "Your thoughts are terrible," exclaimed the gentle Huapina. "I know you are afraid, and I am also afraid. But I thought, if the dean lives, Huapina and Celia must die. Think about it, it is absolutely impossible for the dean to be silent. She only needs one word to persuade Archduke Cardinal. Poor monastery used to be somewhat democratic, and the Grand Duke abhors the crimes caused by this democracy. Your cousin is closely related to Madonna. Her family fell into decline after bankruptcy in X. Madonna is passionately in love with a handsome The weaver, his name is Yu Liang. You must ask your cousin to give her some medicine, as a sleeping pill, so that the abbot who is in the way will stop watching us. This Beilu poison can cause death within six months. " Count Biedermont once went to the court, and the Archduke Fertiland praised him for managing the Abbey of St. Ribarada very peacefully.The prince's words prompted the earl to look again at the results of his work.When the abbot told him of the two murders she had witnessed, the earl turned pale with horror.He knew full well that it was impossible for Abbot Virglia to give him any information as to the cause of the two murders.He thought: "Philips is the only one with a clear head here, and when I first came here six months ago, she was embarrassing me with her reasoning. She may have some clues about this case. It's just society and family." It's so unfair to nuns like them, will she say so?" The prince's representative came to the monastery.Philips was ecstatic at the news. She was finally able to see this extraordinary man again.Wasn't that what she had been doing for six months?On the contrary, the arrival of the count makes Celia and her friend Huapina panic. Celia said to Huapina: "If you worry about this and that, we will be finished. The dean is very timid and will not keep quiet.Now our fate is in the earl's hands. We have two choices: one is to run away, but what do we live on.Brothers, being miserly by nature, would surely use our suspicion of a crime as an excuse to refuse us bread.In the past, Tuscany was a province of Spain, and persecuted Tuscans could flee to France.But now, the Archduke Cardinal has his eyes fixed on this powerful country, wanting to shake off the shackles of Spain.It is impossible for us to find shelter.Poor friend, you're still like a child making up your mind, and that's what's going to happen to us.We were compelled to commit this crime, since Madonna and the Abbot were dangerous witnesses to that unfortunate event.Lordran's aunt wouldn't say anything.She would cherish the Abbey's reputation.After Madonna gave the dean the so-called sleeping pill, we told her that it was poison and sealed her mouth.Besides, this kind girl is infatuated with Yu Liangli. " As for Philip's wise conversation with the count, it would be a long story.Fritz always remembered that she had been guilty of giving in hastily to the use of two more maids.Because of that kindness, the count did not come to the monastery for six months.Philips made up his mind not to repeat the same mistakes.The count cordially sent for her to meet her in the reception room.Philips was so overjoyed by this invitation that she forgot to remind herself that in order to put on airs she had to postpone the interview until tomorrow.When she reached the reception room, she saw only the count in it.Even though the old iron fence separated them, Philips felt a shyness he had never experienced before.She was amazed, and deeply regretted what she had thought.Previously, she had thought the idea clever and amusing.The idea here is that she expressed her love for the earl to the abbot.She hoped the abbot would pass the word to the earl.At that time, she was far less in love with the earl than she is now.She just thought it would be very interesting to attack the heart of the serious prince.Now her feelings are completely different.It was the need of her happiness to please him; if she could not succeed, she would be unhappy.What would the austere man think if the abbot had told the earl her strange secret?He probably thought her a frivolous woman.Thinking of this, Philips felt as uncomfortable as sitting on pins and needles.Be sure to explain it to him.Did the dean tell him?Philips was preoccupied with this question. Fortunately, what she guessed happened to be true.The abbot, horrified at the sight of the two dead bodies that ill-fated night, completely forgot such a trifle as a nun's wild unrequited love. The count saw it clearly.This beautiful woman was confused, but she didn't know why.He wondered: "Could she have committed a crime?" Thinking of this, he, a very rational person, also became uneasy.With this suspicion, he listened very carefully to Philips' answer.For a long time, he had never paid so much attention to a woman's words.He admired Philips' ingenuity.When he mentioned the unfortunate fight at the garden gate, Philips answered cleverly and flatteringly, but without drawing any conclusions.They talked for an hour and a half, and the count never grew tired of it, with the highest interest.Afterwards he bid Philip farewell and asked her to meet again in a few days.Philips was delighted to hear that. The count came out of the monastery of St. Ribarada, lost in thought.The count thought: "It is of course my duty to report to the Prince the extraordinary circumstances which I have just learned. Those two outstanding children from rich families were very pitiful, their deaths were unknown, and the whole country paid attention to them.On the other hand, the Prince Cardinal has recently appointed a bishop.If word of what happened here reached the ears of that dreadful fellow, it would have brought the brutality of the Spanish Inquisition to this unfortunate monastery.That fellow was going to kill not one but five or six poor girls.I need only a little abuse of the prince's confidence in me to prevent this from happening.If I don't do this, then who is not the murderer who killed them?Even if the prince knows and blames him, I can say to him: 'It is your powerful bishop who frightened me. '" The count dared not expressly admit his motives for keeping silent, since he could not be sure that Philip the Beauty was innocent.He shuddered at the thought of putting a poor girl abused by society and her parents in danger. He thought: "If we marry her, she will be the glory of Florence." The count invited the highest ministers of the court and the wealthiest merchants of Florence to a grand hunt in the Sierna marshes.Half of this swamp is his property.But he asked his guests to forgive him for not being able to hunt with them all. On the third day of his conversation with the count, Philip was surprised to hear the count's horse kicking in the front yard of the monastery.Although the prince's representative did not report to the prince what happened in the abbey, he felt it was his duty to keep the abbey from happening again.In order to do this, it was first necessary to ascertain what responsibility the two nuns were responsible for the death of their lover.He first had a long talk with the dean, and then called eight or nine nuns, including Huapina and Celia.As the dean said, none of these nuns knew what happened that night.He was very surprised.The count had no choice but to ask Celia and Huapina directly, and they also denied it.Celia has a strong attitude and clearly can endure adversity. And the young Huapina, like a poor desperate girl, looked very miserable.She became very thin and seemed to have a tuberculosis.The death of Lauronzo made her extremely sad, and she couldn't get rid of it. She had many long talks with Celia.She always said, "I did him wrong, and I should have spared his pride when I cut off that savage Don Caesar." As soon as Philips entered the reception room, he knew that the abbot had confessed her love for him to the Prince's representative.The clever Earl had a complete change of attitude.This made Philips flush with embarrassment at first.She had a long conversation with the count.She looked very charming, but she didn't realize it herself.But she didn't admit anything. All the dean knew was what she saw with her own eyes that night, and there were signs that she didn't see clearly.Celia and Huapina didn't admit anything either.The count felt very embarrassed. "If you question the maids and servants, it's going to go to the bishop. They would confess to the confessor.Then the monastery would be judged. " The count was very worried, and came to the monastery of St. Ribarada every day.He decided to ask all the nuns first, then the maids, and finally the servants.He finds out the truth about a murder of a baby that happened three years ago.This is the report sent to him by the judge of the church court presided over by the bishop.He learned with great amazement that only the abbot, Celia, Huapina, Philips, and her friend Lordrain knew of the death of the two young men in the garden.Lordrain's aunt was good at disguising and not arousing suspicion.Everyone was afraid of the new bishop, so apart from the abbot and Philips, the testimonies of the other nuns were exactly the same, obviously mixed with lies.After cross-examining everyone, the count had another long talk with Philips.This made Philips happy.In order to increase the chance of meeting, she deliberately told the earl about the death of the two knights, but she only told him a little bit every day.Speaking of herself, she candidly admits that she had three lovers.The count was now almost her friend.She told him all her love experiences in detail.This clever and pretty girl, with her frankness, attracted the count.He also naturally met her sincerely. He said, "I can't tell you anything so interesting in return. I don't know if I'm going to take the liberty of telling you that I've met women in the world whose temperament I despised more than their beauty." The count's frequent visits prevented Celia from getting a good rest.Huapina was more and more wallowing in pain, and he did not refuse his friend's request.When it was her turn to guard the door, she opened the door, turned her head, and let in Yu Liang, the weaver friend of Madonna, the dean's personal maid.Yu Liang stayed in the monastery for eight days, and did not go out until Huapina was on duty again.It seems that Madonna gave the dean the sleeping potion on the last day of hanging out with her lover. On the one hand, the dean asked her to be with her day and night, and on the other hand, he listened to Yu Liang's complaints.Yu Liang was locked in her room, alone, bored. One night, Julie, a young and devout nun, was passing by the big dormitory when she heard someone talking in Madonna's room.She tiptoed over and saw a handsome young man through the keyhole, sitting at the table and eating with Madonna, talking and laughing.Julie knocked on the door a few times, and then thought about it, Madonna would probably open the door, lock her up with this man, and report to the dean.Of course the dean will believe her, because they are always together.Julie panicked for a moment, seeing Madonna chasing her down the dark, empty hallway.Madonna is physically much stronger than she is.Julie was flustered and hurried away.She heard Madonna open the door.Afraid that she would be recognized by Madonna, she ran to the dean and told what she had just seen.The dean was furious when he heard this, and immediately rushed to Madonna's dormitory, but Yu Liang was not found.He has slipped into the garden.But on this night, out of prudence and also considering Madonna's reputation, the abbot left her to sleep in his room and announced to her that the abbot himself and the confessor of the monastery would go to the hospital tomorrow morning. Go and seal up her little room, in case some evil person says it's harboring a man.Madonna was very annoyed. It just so happened that she had some chocolate for the dean for supper at this time, so she mixed a lot of so-called sleeping pills into it. On the second day, Dean Vergelia was particularly nervous.When she looked in the mirror, she saw her face change and thought she was going to die.The initial effect of Bello's poison was to drive the user almost insane.Virglia remembered that one of the privileges of the abbot of the aristocratic monastery of St. Libarada was to see the bishop when he was dying.So she wrote a letter to the prelate.Before long, the bishop came to the monastery.She not only told him about her illness, but also about the two corpses.The Bishop severely reprimanded her for not reporting to him so bizarre and so sinful an event.The abbot replied that the prince, on behalf of the Earl of Biedermont, advised her not to publicize her family scandal. "You strictly perform your duties, how dare this ordinary person say that you are spreading your family ugliness?" Seeing the bishop coming to the monastery, Celia said to Huapina: "We are finished. This fanatic priest will do whatever it takes to implement the reforms stipulated by the Thirty Synods in the monasteries under his jurisdiction. For us, he Not in the same category as the Earl of Biedermont." Huapina threw herself into Celia's arms and burst into tears. "It doesn't matter if I die, but there are two things that make me die with regret. One is that I have troubled you, and the other is that I can't save the dean's life even if I die." Huapina immediately went to the nun's room that night and did not give her a detailed explanation, only saying that Madonna accidentally received a man in the room, and now she must save her life and honor.After much intercession, the nun finally agreed to open the gate after eleven o'clock and leave herself for a few minutes. Meanwhile, Celia had Madonna called to the altar.It was a spacious hall, with soffits forty feet high, like another church.A fence separates it from the outside, which is open to the public, and Madonna kneels in the middle of the altar.Speak in such a low voice that no one can hear you.Celia knelt beside her and said to her, "This is a purse containing Huapina and all my savings. Tonight or tomorrow night, I will make arrangements to keep the door open for a while. You will let Yu Liang Escape. You, too, have to go. You must understand that Abbot Virgeria has told everything to the terrible Bishop. The court will sentence you to fifteen years in prison, or you will be sentenced to death." Madonna moved her body, wanting to kneel down to thank Celia. "You daredevil, what are you doing?" Celia hurriedly stopped her, "You have to think that Yu Liang and you may be arrested at any time. From now until you run away, try to hide, especially be careful of Dean Jin People in the reception room." The next day, the count came to the monastery and found that there had been a lot of changes.Madonna, the dean's personal maid, disappeared at night.The abbot was so weak that she had to be carried to the reception room on a chair in order to receive the Prince's representative.She confessed to the count that she had told the bishop everything. The count couldn't help shouting: "Then, let's wait to see blood and poison!" ...
