Proof of the Sun King

Vol 2 Chapter 958: , the old aristocracy and the new aristocracy

PS: 155,000 words have been updated this month, and the task has been seriously exceeded, so it shouldn’t be too much for everyone to give a guaranteed monthly pass for next month, right? hahaha~

PS2: This chapter is 5400 words, and the amount is large enough. I beg the gentlemen to give a reward for the tickets mentioned in this chapter. The emperor is here to thank you.

An important lesson that Lane learned from Macado is that for a large country (here, the emphasis is on sufficient size), no policy is so-called "completely reasonable", "completely healthy" and "long-term stability". For a big country, a policy has only short-term pros and cons and long-term pros and cons. Macado's knowledge told Lane that after considering immediate interests, long-term interests, and problems that urgently need to be solved now, as long as it is beneficial Policies that outweigh the disadvantages can be tried.

It doesn't matter how much the lower ranks of the bureaucracy and the civilians live and die, and it doesn't matter how many sacrifices the civilians need to make, as long as they think it's beneficial to the country as a whole, it can be implemented.

This is the Machado thinking.

To a certain extent, Mageweave Malcador deserves to be the culmination of the bureaucratic system of the human empire for tens of thousands of years. In the eyes of the prime minister of the empire, the founder of the human empire system and the emperor's most loyal servant, maintaining the political situation And the stable operation of the bureaucracy, controlling everything, mastering everything, using systems and personnel arrangements to maintain balance and allowing everyone to finally dedicate their loyalty to the supreme emperor is the purpose of the existence of the human empire.

"If the system and the creator of the system exist at the same time, people who are eager to fight will try to resist the creator and destroy the system, but if the creator is no longer there or unknown, people will be willing to obey, and use and rely on the system to mutually support each other. Fight and become the champion and enforcer of the system.”

"This is the system. At first you fight against it, you abuse it, you hate it, and slowly you get used to it, you rely on it, and eventually you find that you can't leave it anymore."

——The Prime Minister of the Human Empire, the High Lord of the Supreme Lord Council of Terra, the Emperor's personal hero, the most loyal servant and friend and confidant of the Lord of Humans, the magic mark of the palm print - Malcador.

This is why the Primarchs and the Prime Minister are destined to be on opposite sides, just as the enfeoffment system, the mandate system, and the centralized system are destined to be opposites. This is an irreconcilable contradiction. No matter who the Primarchs are, they are destined not to, nor will they Willing to be a cog or bearing in the bureaucratic system, and in Malcador's view, the primarchs have not learned to obey, and the prime minister even uses a lot of spies and psionic detection to spy on the inner thoughts and secrets of the primarchs, and at the same time constantly Involved in the "emotional exchanges" between the primarchs and the Emperor, most of the primarchs hated the pawprints, and a few better-tempered ones like Guilliman or Vulkan lacked affection.

But the facts finally proved whose method was more useful. 10K years after the Emperor entered the Golden Throne, two vital legacy of Malcador are still in play, including the Inquisition, including the Grey Knight and its primarch, Lane. - Macado.

The power of the handprinter echoed in Ryan's mind, and the grey knight primarch was thinking about how to deal with this.

In the short term, the disadvantages of receiving this Kisler army outweigh the advantages, including but not limited to diplomatic troubles, the supply of military salaries and the arrangement of the garrison, differences in beliefs, and whether this group of Mrs. Kisler is willing to Allegiance question.

But in the long run, there is no need to say what the benefits are. Everyone understands that it is the last and most effective army of countless industrialized talents and this ice and snow kingdom!

"Tsar, does she still have the face? If it wasn't for her, we wouldn't be here now!" Morgiana took the envelope and looked at it, and her good mood disappeared instantly, she said sharply: "In order to save Erlenguera Germany's army, we have paid more than 3,000 losses, and Karad is also seriously injured, all military expenses are paid by ourselves, and she has the face to ask us for someone now?"

"Haha." Ryan smiled and said nothing. He stretched out his hand and stroked the golden crescent of the lake **** witch, just looking at her like this.

The originally twisted eyebrows gradually subsided, and Morgiana was a little embarrassed by Ryan's gaze, and even felt that her body was beginning to become strange. What? You still think Catalin's request is reasonable?"

"The reason is unreasonable." In the hall, Ryan and Morgiana were not too good and too close, the Knight King quickly withdrew his hand, he just sighed: "But she has the law, this is It's really not easy to handle this matter, and if it's not handled well, it can easily lead to disputes and affect our image of Brittany in the old world."

Morgiana nodded, this is true, no matter what, Catalin still retains her identity as a tsar, and this identity is also recognized by Brittany, the Erlengrad Silavik Group declared independence It means self-government and self-determination, but there is no public announcement of separation from Kislev, and the conditions at the time did not allow it.

"So I feel disgusting, very disgusting, our Majesty Katarin obviously doesn't intend to be embarrassed." Ryan held the letter that was both requesting and questioning, and the King of Knights' face was full of disgust 's expression: "This is also in line with her situation. She has no ability to change the status quo, and can only hope for external forces."

"Then what should we do? I don't know? Or refuse?" Morgiana simply pulled Ryan away from the banquet hall. The sound of the lake **** witch's high heels and the sound of Ryan's boots resounded on the floor of the less luxurious earl's castle. After thinking about it for a while, he rejected these two methods angrily: "It's definitely not possible to say you don't know, the old world knows that it's a lie for us to say you don't know, and it's not very good to refuse, now both the Empire and the Bretons are In the full fight against Chaos, refusal is both reckless and absurd, why should we stop Mrs Keesler from going back to save their country?"

"Hahahaha! That's right, that's right." Ryan laughed, and the king of knights picked up the letter with a cold tone: "So it's really disgusting, this is a conspiracy, indeed, I don't even want to face , it's getting really tricky."

"Then what to do now?" Morgiana became worried, and the Lake God Witch was a little worried about it.

Ryan couldn't help but smile when he heard the words. As a sanctuary powerhouse who had accepted the centuries-old inheritance of the Lake God witch, Mogiana had countless experiences to learn from in dealing with politics, the court, and various religious affairs. I am so worried, but once something is related to Ryan, Morgiana can't keep calm. It can only be said that women who are in love will become blind, and Talleyrand sees through this and grabs a meal. A compliment, and successfully left a good impression on Morgiana.

"What should I do? Reply and tell Catalin that she has the wrong person for this matter. I am now busy fighting against Chaos, and I have no time or responsibility for the withdrawal of Kislev's army to Britannia. Let her go to Suria." Ryan smiled: "As for Suria, there is Olika, she is the best at this, and Beria who knows about Kislev's situation."

"That dark elf is really good at this." Morgiana seemed to remember something, she looked at the left and right of no one: "Well, it's not too early, let's just go back to the room first?"

"Going back to the room? Going back to the room so early?" Ryan's face changed slightly, and the King of Knights quickly changed the subject: "It's too early, Morgiana, shall we go shopping?"

"Wandering around, there are people everywhere, and there is no place in the whole town where there is no one." Morgiana's expression was displeased, she thought about it and said shyly in Ryan's ear: "After thinking about it, I also It's quietest in the room, Ryan, what kind of skirt and stockings do you like, I'll show you, okay?"

At that time, the room is full of your uvula, where is it quiet? When Ryan thought about it, the King of Knights shook his head and said that it was too early. Morgiana was a little dissatisfied, so she had to follow Ryan back to the banquet hall.

"Darling, where have you been?" Veronica came over with a glass of wine, and behind her were a group of Garland witches dressed in fancy dress: "I'm looking for you everywhere."

"What's the matter with me, my dear." Ryan raised his glass and touched Veronica.

"Looking for you... go back to the room!" Veronica said maliciously on her sweet and charming face: "You fought such a big victory, do you want to show something? Let's go back to the room, dear Yes, I can't wait."

Ryan: "..."

"Ryan, you are here." At this moment, Teresa also came. The sorceress saw that Veronica and Morgiana were both there, and immediately came up. She put her waist-deep black hair back. Putting it up high, the black full-frame butterfly pattern glasses exudes the brilliance of magic: "It's too noisy here, I'm a little annoyed, why don't we find a quiet place to play cards or do something else?"

Ryan: "???"

The King of Knights realized that the situation was not good and immediately planned to run away, but Morgiana had already reached out and grabbed his sleeve: "I'm glad we have reached an agreement, now it's time to act."

The witch of the lake god, the female speaker of Jialan, and the sorceress completed the synchronization in an instant!

First trick the pig into it and then kill it!

Just like that, the King of Knights was half-pushed and half-pulled away from the banquet.

Everyone at the banquet basically noticed the departure of Ryan and Morgiana, but most of them blamed the letter the king received. There should be something to deal with, so they didn't care too much.

The kingdom's regent, Lawn, came a little late. He ate something casually, had a few glasses of wine, and celebrated together.

"Sir Baldwin?" The regent of the kingdom felt the glory of the battle of the three kings. He regretted that he did not destroy such a large number of frontal battlefields. When he saw a kingdom knight surrounded by a large group of ranger knights eating and drinking, he took the initiative to walk over. : "Why is it you again?"

"His Royal Highness Raun!" All the knights saluted, and Baldwin from Le-Angoulan quickly greeted Raun: "Madam, it's great to see you come back with nothing to do!"

"Ma'am, Baldwin, what have you achieved in this battle?" The Regent of the Kingdom laughed. He and Baldwin had a cup of tea. When they saw the two of them wanting to talk, the crowd dispersed with interest.

"Without the victory, I didn't even kill a single goblin." Baldwin is a rather frail-looking, with some extravagance of traditional noble children, but his face is obviously weathered. His temperament is different. Just looking at his temperament, he is no different from many children of the great nobles who eat, drink and play all day, but judging from the wrinkles and scars on his face, everyone knows that this is a veteran of the battlefield.

Lawn knew that Baldwin was born in the Principality of Le-Angoulan and was a son of the Count of Clements. Before the Knight King Ryan announced that he would not provide knights for the kingdom within four generations, the title crisis! So Baldwin was enlisted as a knight for the Araby expedition. A lot of people thought that a dude like Baldwin wouldn't survive more than three months in Araby.

In fact, most of the rangers and knights who went to Arabian expedition did not survive for three months, but Sir Baldwin was an exception. No matter how he usually eats, drinks and plays, he has not lost his training in martial arts and riding. After arriving in the Arabian Desert, Baldwin participated in the Battle of Mongiza and the Battle of Spring Valley. He won a big victory in the battle, made military exploits, and miraculously survived. In the end, he received an "excellent" evaluation in the comprehensive evaluation. He returned to China and was awarded the Kingdom Knight by Lawn. title.

Lawn knew something about Baldwin in general, and the kingdom regent became interested: "Then why do they worship you so much? You are not a flag captain or a general."

"Ha." Baldwin smiled helplessly, pointing at the young knights: "I just have a lot of battlefield knowledge and life-saving knowledge, which I impart to this group, although I have received a lot of professional military skills, but I have never gone to school. Rookies on the battlefield."

"Rookie? Well, it's very vivid. No matter who it is, it starts with a rookie, and I am no exception." Raun laughed.

"Yes, for a rookie, at the beginning of the battle, it's not about killing many enemies, but how to ensure that you survive, not killing your life as soon as you get up. For example, when I instruct them, the goblin bow and arrow boy shoots arrows at you. , rushing forward, not reckless, contacting the enemy at the fastest speed is the safest." Baldwin also sneered: "This is not bravery, this is wisdom, we are not those Ugol people, the knights just want to rush up , but safe."

"Oh? I never thought that Dreadnought Charge could be explained in this way. Who taught you?" Lawn used a fork to fork a steak soaked in juice, and the Kingdom Regent asked with interest.

"It was taught by the knight instructor of the Oerrig Knights." Baldwin nibbled at a large cucumber: "In the Arabian Desert, we have many enemies, undead, greenskin, Skaven, pirates. , we have very few friends, only the imperial people and a small number of dwarf exploration teams, the rest are only sand and camels, survival is more important than killing more enemies, the boss said, the important thing is to experience first, feel first , survive."

"You are really talented." Lawn considered it for a while, and said slowly, "Where is he now?"

"Still in Araby."

"Still in Araby? How long has he served?"

"It's been a long time, he just didn't want to go home, it's boring, I was homesick and wanted crazy, and I didn't understand it at all, until after I went home, I looked at my father who was immersed in the glorious past of the family and didn't want to wake up, looked at my father A few brothers and mothers who have nothing to do all day, boring, really boring." Baldwin said helplessly: "As a lady's honorable knight, life should not be wasted like that."

"So you're here again this time?" Lawn was amused.

"Yes, I'm here again." Baldwin said with a smile: "The Great Crusade of the Road of Knights, won softly, under the leadership of His Majesty Ryan, he has been winning all the time, but it is no more interesting than being at home, wealth, glory, even It's the Holy Grail, I'm ready."

"Come on, Baldwin, you will win the glory that belongs to you." Lawn shook hands with Baldwin, said hello and walked away: "The back waves of the kingdom!"

The regent of the kingdom was filled with emotion, and he felt that the king of knights was even more incomprehensible.

Lawn knows very well that a knight aristocrat like Baldwin is a typical old aristocrat and a territorial aristocrat. Logically speaking, he should be the one who hates the behavior and counter-reformation of the knight king Lane the most. These people hate Lane's emphasis on "incompetence is "Sin", "If I can't provide knights, I will confiscate the title and fief", "If the nobles can't do it, I will let the mud-legged people go to the top" policy, which has been an enemy of Ryan more than once.

Why can't my family's accumulation of hundreds of years be comparable to the ten years of **** battles of the mud-legged people?

And whether it is Lawn or Behemond, they are typical representatives of the old nobles, but to most of the old nobles, whether it is Lawn, Hagen, and Behemond, they are all Holy Grail Knights , For the Holy Grail Knights, none of the above three are valid for them, and they will not harm their interests. On the contrary, they have tasted enough sweetness and benefited by following Ryan. They also have enough benefits for many reforms that harm their interests. Being able to be rewarded in the long run and elsewhere was naturally difficult to resist, and in the end, under the ideological work of François, he completely fell to Ryan's side.

Therefore, these middle-level old nobles are bitter in their hearts. They can't reach the sky, and they can't reach the ground. They are half-dead by Ryan.

However, the appearance of people like Baldwin made Lawn realize that even the old nobles have begun to undergo great changes~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The fresh blood in the old nobles is rising rapidly, and they have become Ryan. supporters, because many people of insight in the old nobles also realize that if they do not change, they will be eliminated with the torrent of the times, and as long as they follow Ryan, they will also have the opportunity to get countless wealth and glory. .

What about the new nobles? Lawn turned his attention to the other group.

It was the old guard under the king's command. The coach Bertrand was drinking and eating meat with Davout, Raymond, and Raymond's brother engineer Thomas. They were the new nobles and the representatives of the mud-legged people. Now One by one, with great achievements and honor, the civilians respected the old guard even more than ordinary knights.

This is identity recognition. Compared with the knights, the serfs of course recognize the old guard as their own.

Of course, the old nobles hate the old guards, because in their opinion, this group of old guards is a new group to seize their interests, and they are the swords in Ryan's hands.

But from another point of view, the old guards are all born and bred in Brittany. At the national level and at the national level, the old guards and the old nobles have the same position. They are brothers and sisters. Compatriots and allies, so it is impossible for the old nobles to completely break the hostility with this group of new nobles, not to mention that the fairies in the lake have recognized the status of the old guards second only to the Holy Grail Knights.

Is this His Majesty's power? No one can completely oppose him? Unconsciously, he has completely controlled the entire kingdom?

After thinking for a long time, for the first time, Raun stepped forward and took the initiative to greet Bertrand and others.

"Congratulations, Baron Nottingham, our Lord Bertrand!"

The representatives of the old nobles and the representatives of the new nobles had their first equal talks at the banquet after the Battle of the Three Kings.
