Chapter 1912 Edward Longlegs' Crown

Soon, Ye Tian came up from the secret passage and returned to the big pit that everyone dug hard.

As soon as he came up, the Bishop of Kent who was standing on the edge of the pit asked impatiently before he could stand firm:

"Steven, you guys are counted, hurry up and tell everyone, what is hidden at the end of this secret road, is it the treasure of the Knights Templar we are looking for?"

Not only the Bishop of Kent, but everyone in the confessional cell at the moment, counting one by one, was very concerned about the answer to this question, and looked at Ye Tian with full expectation.

Ye Tian looked up and glanced at those guys above, then nodded with a smile and said:

"Guys, our hard work has finally paid off, hidden in that medieval palace deep underground is the treasure of the Knights Templar that we have been looking for so hard.

There are more treasures hidden here than what was found in the abandoned castle in Larnaca, of course, it is also possible that this is only part of the treasure of the Knights Templar"

Before the words fell, the scene immediately burst into excited cheers.

"It's great! It really is the treasure of the Knights Templar, and it's not in vain for us to be coolies, digging hard here! Everything is worth it!"

"Wow! It's bigger than the treasure in Larnaca! There is no doubt that this must be a major discovery that will shock the world, but who would have thought that the Knights Templar would hide the treasure in England!

The Temple Church has belonged to the British royal family for a long time. It is a miracle that the treasure of the Knights Templar has not been discovered by the British for more than 700 years. We are so lucky! "

While cheering loudly, everyone is also clapping or hugging to celebrate this important discovery, and everyone is ecstatic.

Compared with the rest of the confession cell, Ye Tian was much calmer.

As soon as the cheers started, he immediately raised his right index finger and put it to his mouth, signaling everyone to keep their voices down, so as not to disturb the British guys on the ground. That is not a good thing.

Seeing his actions, everyone immediately came to their senses, and the cheers quickly subsided, only those in the confession cell could hear them.

After the cheers subsided, Ye Tian continued to say:

"After my exploration, I can now confirm that this secret passage and the palace inside were built in the middle and late twelfth century.

It has always been a secret vault of the Knights Templar.

The gold and silver treasures stored here are not only the property of the British branch, but other properties such as the Scottish branch, the Irish branch, and many properties from the European continent are also kept secretly here.

At the beginning of the 14th century, when the handsome man Philip IV, the king of France, began to frantically kill the Knights Templar, some guys from the British branch buried the secret passage for safety reasons and to preserve their strength.

Before filling the secret passage, a batch of treasures smuggled from Paris was also hidden here, which should be part of the legendary treasures of the Knights Templar, ready to be used as capital for a comeback.

Who would have imagined that the turmoil of killing the Knights Templar would soon spread to England, and those guys from the British branch could not escape the fate of being killed. After their death, no one will know about this underground secret vault."

"Why!"

There was a sound of sighs at the scene, and everyone felt sorry for the legendary Templars.

After a short pause, Ye Tianqing's clear voice came from the bottom of the pit again, reaching everyone's ears.

"Afterwards, according to the order of the Pope at the time, the Knights of the Hospitaller took over the Temple Church, and a few years later, the Temple Church fell into the hands of King Henry VIII of England, who then lent it to the Bar Association.

But neither the Knights of the Hospitaller, nor King Henry VIII of England, nor the Middle Temple and the Inner Temple, which have occupied here for more than 700 years, have not discovered this underground vault.

In that medieval palace deep underground, I found several sheepskin documents that recorded relevant information, and they were written in English. It was through those documents that I learned these contents! "

"Whoa! That's twists and turns, the Templars are too unlucky"

"Not only the Templars, but also the Knights of the Hospitaller, the British royal family, and the British lawyers are also unlucky enough to be in Baoshan without knowing it."

There was a sound of emotion at the scene, but this time the sound was much smaller.

Immediately afterwards, the Bishop of Kent asked eagerly:

"Steven, apart from the sheepskin documents that recorded information about this secret passage and its treasures, what else have you found? Have you found any of the legendary Christian relics?"

Ye Tian looked up at the cardinal, glanced at the other guys, then smiled and said:

"Bishop of Kent, I didn't see those legendary Christian relics with my own eyes, but I found a few boxes that were enshrined on the altar. The things that can be enshrined by the Knights Templar must be very important.

When we discovered the crown of King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem and fragments of the "True Cross" in Larnaca, neither of them were enshrined by the Knights Templar due to the importance of those two Christian holy relics.

It is conceivable that the boxes on the altar must contain very important things, and they may be some long-disappeared Christian relics. I am not a Christian, so it is obviously not suitable for me to touch them.

In view of this, I didn't go forward to open the boxes on the altar to see what's inside. The job of opening those mysterious boxes is best left to you, that's more appropriate! "

Hearing this, Bishop Kent's eyes immediately flashed a look of gratitude.

This is likely to be an opportunity to make a name for the ages, but this guy Steven is extremely generous and gave this opportunity to himself. He is so good and good at being a man!

Thinking of this, the Bishop of Kent immediately nodded and said:

"Thank you, Steven, I accept this favor. It's a great pleasure to work with you. Not only can I experience the fun of exploring treasures, but I also have the opportunity to leave a name forever. It's great!"

"Hahaha"

There was a burst of laughter, and everyone in the confessional cell laughed.

After the laughter subsided, Ye Tian continued:

"You're welcome, Bishop of Kent. Since we are partners, and the cooperation is very pleasant, I will certainly consider you as soon as possible if I have this opportunity to leave my name forever."

Hearing this, the Bishop of Kent once again expressed his thanks.

Immediately afterwards, David couldn't wait to ask again:

"Steven, apart from the boxes enshrined on the altar, what else did you find in that medieval palace deep underground? Tell me.

When will everyone be able to enter the secret passage, the underground palace at the end of the secret passage? Behold the treasures of the Knights Templar that have been slumbering in darkness for over seven hundred years"

"In the medieval palace deep underground, there are many boxes of different specifications, as many as dozens of them, each box is covered with moss, and some boxes are rotten.

Due to limited time, I did not open all the boxes, but only opened three boxes with more prominent positions. In those three boxes, I found a crown and two sets of medieval knight equipment.

Moreover, those antique cultural relics have been treated with special anti-rust technology. Although they have been sleeping in the cold and damp underground palace for more than 700 years, they are still as bright as new without any damage."

"Whose crown and knight equipment is that? Could it be another Jerusalem king? Just like the crown and knight equipment of Baldwin IV we found in Larnaca?"

Jason, who was standing at the bottom of the pit, interjected, obviously very curious.

The same goes for David and the Bishop of Kent above the mouth of the pit, and the rest.

Ye Tian shook his head slightly, and then revealed the answer.

"That's not the crown and knightly equipment of the King of Jerusalem, they belong to Edward Longlegs, King Edward I of England, and his brother, the Earl of Lancaster.

Everyone knows that before Edward I became the king of England, he participated in the last Crusade with the Earl of Lancaster and fought side by side with the Knights Templar for a long time.

After returning to England and becoming the king of England, the relationship between him and the Knights Templar remained good until 1307, when Edward I died on the way to conquer Scotland.

I am not surprised that the crusader equipment of Edward I and the Earl of Lancaster is present in this Templar treasure, perhaps a gift from them to the Knights Templar.

However, the appearance of the British crown made me very surprised, because it was not an ordinary crown, but the most important crown of the British Plantagenet Dynasty, which had a special meaning! "

Unsurprisingly, the confession cell immediately boiled.

"My God! Did I hear you right? It's incredible that the most important crown of the Plantagenet dynasty is in this Templar treasure!"

"Wow! If that's really the crown of the Plantagenet Dynasty, once the news of the British is known, those British people will definitely go completely crazy!"

Ye Tian smiled softly, and then continued to say:

"That's right, if the Britons know that the most important crown of the Plantagenet Dynasty is hidden in this underground palace, they will definitely be crazy about it, which is one of the reasons why I keep everyone strictly confidential.

Edward Longlegs was one of the most accomplished and greatest monarchs in British history. He had a very high status and was known as "Britain's Justinian". It was he who finally determined the famous "Magna Carta" system.

The final determination of the "Magna Carta" ensured the continuity of the royal family from William the Conqueror to the Queen Elizabeth II. It is precisely because "the king must obey the law" that the British royal family can continue to this day.

It can be seen from this that once Edward I's crown appears, what kind of sensation it will cause in the UK, especially the British royal family, will definitely be completely crazy about it, there is no doubt about it.

Why did the crown of the Plantagenet Dynasty appear here? Perhaps Edward I entrusted the crown to the Knights Templar because he was worried about his useless son before he set off for Scotland.

Trusteeship is a basic business of the Knights Templar. Many religious and secular nobles and kings in Europe often deposit gold, silver, jewelry, wills, and even treaties in the vaults of the Knights Templar.

At the beginning of the thirteenth century, John the Lost King had deposited the jade seal and the crown gem in the vault of the London branch of the Knights Templar. Edward I was just following his grandfather.

But Edward Longlegs didn't know that he would die on the way to conquer Scotland, and it would be too late to return to London to get his crown back. Since then, the crown has disappeared! "

Everyone at the scene was completely dumbfounded, everyone was stunned, their eyes were full of ecstasy, and their eyes were full of disbelief!
