”Sire, Rumors have been spreading of Pope Gregory’s sudden rise and power, and some have even said he will become mightier than you, and has gained a large following”
Yes, he also disapproves of your recent choice of bishop
WHAT KIND OF TREASON IS THIS!, please send a message to Germany’s Bishops and tell them that Gregory is to be exiled, IMMEDIATLY!”
What?! Outrageous, that simply cannot do, I know what will serve him right
What do you mean excommunicated, I AM YOUR KING YOU MEASLY NOBLES.... The Popes orders? Why that...
EXCOMMUNICATED!!!
Some Time Later.......

Please, all I ask of you is your forgiveness for my foolish actions.
Fine, I hereby accept your apology, you may now get off of my property.
*whispers* Is he still here?
My lord, he's been here for the past three days, you should end his suffering
1122, New pope, and emperor
So what we've agreed on is that church officials get to pick Bishops, but they still obey me.
Well, that's simplifying it but yeah, I think it sounds great, I mean, what could possibly go wrong?
