MTL - Magic Tower Starry Sky-Chapter 1436 concern
"Do you think it's appropriate to go to church?"
Before the imperial meeting started, Lin stayed in the emperor's study and faced the empress with such questions.
Today he is different from before. Deeply involved in state affairs, Lin already has an additional title of advisor. There is no compensation, just some convenience.
And one of these conveniences is that you don't have to wait outside the palace to be summoned, but you can stay in the palace and participate in the imperial meeting together as the empress' advisor. Of course, there are no seats.
In fact, he had explained this problem to the empress before Lin Xun acted, and only after receiving approval did he take any follow-up actions. But this time, the reaction among the nobles was so great that even those big nobles who supported the formation of the parliament were quite critical, so it was only then that a certain magician was summoned to the imperial council again.
Otherwise, before today, Grand Duke Frias had repeatedly requested to summon the magician Gabrash Tripwood. Of course, the intention is to ask this magician who is making troubles in the empire to go away, so that those inconsequential New Deals can be calmed down.
Such a request was rejected time and time again by the empress and other grand dukes. Until this time, the other grand dukes did not help, but just watched with cold eyes. The weak and weak empress could no longer protect someone, so she had no choice but to let someone come to this dragon pool and tiger's lair again.
Before the meeting started, Alegria asked again worriedly. Lin's previous explanation convinced her, which is why she would agree to someone's action. But when it comes to the introduction of theocracy, this has always been a taboo for nobles. Therefore, in the face of voices of doubt, the empress inevitably brought up the worries she had let go.
According to my past experience in life, when faced with the continuous bombardment of the same person and the same question, you must never reply with the same answer. Because the other party will do this, it doesn't mean that the original answer can't completely convince him, he just wants to hear if there are other answers. And if you keep using the same reply, it will be considered perfunctory and you will be blamed.
If you can't shake your head at this time and walk away, you can only answer in different ways. Lin explained helplessly: "The new situation in the future lies in finding ways to increase people's participation. Only when the participation increases can the number of support increase. Therefore, when dealing with the public, even if the result does not meet people's demands, we must Pretend to be open-minded and teachable, and listen to other people's opinions and voices. As long as this sense of respect is in place, no one will care even if it goes in the left ear and out the right ear. Those who have faith Aren't these people the people of the empire? They don't live on this land? They don't contribute to the affairs of the empire? Of course they are a group of people worth fighting for."
"According to your new statement, what did the magician say?" the empress asked.
"Magicians have an agreement in black and white with the noble lords. And they just have another way of ruling, rather than enjoying extraterritorial rights. In contrast, people in the church are only unilaterally rejected by the nobles. Jurisprudential basis.—”
Speaking of this, Lin couldn't help repeating the old tune,
"—And I have also said that from the perspective of the new structure, even if the people of the church join, they are only in the lower council. No matter what they do, they only have a chance to make a voice, and it is impossible to override the cabinet. Even if the gods come in person , and there is no legal basis for the empire to obey the will of the gods. Not to mention that it is impossible for the gods to surrender their status and join the 'lower' council."
Seeing the empress still looking worried, Lin had no choice but to say in relief: "In short, you only need to treat the people of the church as ordinary citizens of the empire, and you don't need to be afraid of them like snakes and scorpions. And in terms of practical benefits, religious Faith as a bond, the speed of finding and connecting supporters is very impressive, isn’t it. I think people who have opinions on me are just afraid of the speed of this kind of momentum.”
"Afraid of such a speed of connection?" Alegria seriously thought about the recent situation, and found that the growth rate of her folk supporters was indeed much faster than that of other nobles. They couldn't help being unafraid, so they sighed: "It's true."
Lin said again: "It's still just the beginning, and everyone is still getting used to it, so I don't dare to come up with too many new things. Otherwise, let alone religious quotas, I still want to develop quotas for women and race. That’s what it’s really called to fight big with small things.”
"Guaranteed quota, what is that?" Alegria asked puzzled by a new term that popped up suddenly.
Lin simply explained: "In fact, it is to ensure that the minority groups within the empire, because of the scattered population, they cannot have representatives of their own groups to enter the parliament, and a guaranteed number of members is given. It is still my old idea, which is to give them A pipe for sound, not even the last bit of use. But..."
Facing the worry suddenly displayed by the magician, Alegria asked, "But what?"
Looking at the list of people who participated in the imperial meeting this time, Lin looked slightly worried, and said, "I think this time, the focus is not on religious issues."
The empress also looked at the sorted list. There are a bunch of people's names specially marked with red pen on it. Many of these people are members of the royal family who are not qualified to participate in politics. Regardless of whether they have ever had the right to inherit the throne, or who still have the right to inherit the order now, all of them appeared.
"Several things are making trouble together." The empress complained, "The other old guys are not afraid to let the water go this time, and let the old man Frias mess things up. Everyone is doing nothing. You can be sure." Get through this one?"
The last question, of course, was asked by the empress to a magician.
Lin spread his hands helplessly, and said, "When I was in the holy city, although I had dealt with the big shots of the Gwana Empire, I really didn't have such experience of being targeted. So I don't know what moves the other party will make." , let alone precautions. There is absolutely no assurance of successfully passing through this test, and we can only do our best and obey the destiny."
Hearing such weak words, Alegria showed hesitation, and said: "For this matter, I almost bet everything on me. You have such an attitude of indifference now, have you considered me?" .”
...Is this a sign of an explosion?
Lin quickly realized his mistake. Perhaps I, as well as those who have been by my side for a long time, have become accustomed to someone's safe style of not counting victory, but counting defeat first, and pay attention to the spirit of letting him take a step in everything. But for a person who is ambitious and strongly wants to accomplish something, it is not too much to say that he is not aggressive.
Just imagine, I was trying to fight a turnaround, but the counselors around me poured a bucket of cold water on me first, and I would be considered a kind and righteous person if I didn't chop off the dog's head and go out to sacrifice the flag.
So-and-so is not a novice who doesn't understand the world, or who encounters such problems and turns his mind into an elm head. So what else can I do, find a way to coax. Lin tried to put on a serious expression and said:
"Your Majesty, in fact, think in a good direction. Even if we are forced to have no choice today, it is only temporary. As long as people still covet power, what we do today will become a seed and be buried in everyone's heart. And it has become an undercurrent, brewing in unknown places. One day in the future, it will surely sweep over with a more ferocious momentum. Everything we do is meaningful and will definitely work. "
It's just someone's attempt to remedy it, and it didn't work as it should. Alegria reclined on the comfortable couch, shook his hands in a dispirited manner, and said, "Forget it, don't care about my thoughts. Just think about how to deal with the next thing."
After finishing speaking, the empress only cared about playing with the green onion-like fingers of the calamus beside her. For a while, there was silence in the study.
The physical injury of the mixed-race sea woman has long been healed under the effect of divine grace, but the spiritual trauma is not so easy to heal. Not only does she have a startled performance from time to time, but she also becomes more silent than before.
It meant that the pistachio among them was the little round face who couldn't be saved. Without such a person, the laughter beside the empress seemed to have disappeared, never to be seen again.
Faced with such a situation, a certain time traveler is helpless. If you were a social cow in the past, it would be easy to amuse people and have a lively atmosphere; but will the social cow be mixed into a fat house? Not to mention dealing with a woman who claims to be a different kind of creature. This is something unimaginable before time travel.
So even if someone has the heart, he is actually powerless~ www.novelbuddy.com~ can only be quiet and not break the peaceful and peaceful atmosphere of this moment.
After that incident, wherever Alegria went, she always took calamus with her. Even on formal occasions, she will be kept within his sight.
This kind of action is quite helpful to the Hai Clan girl who has not recovered from her trauma. Of course, it was impossible for Lin to defend himself forcefully with a thick neck at such a time. This only irritates and scares the calamus.
Thinking back to the night a few days ago, under the gesture of the empress, even though she only reached out to the calamus without touching anyone, she was still so frightened that her whole body shrank.
Although the mixed-race beauty still suppressed her emotions and forced herself to accept the man in front of her, Lin was not the kind of person who only cared about her own needs. After a little reassurance, the events of that night were over.
So looking at the tranquility in front of him, Lin didn't want to break it, and he didn't dare to break it.
It means that the necromancer who did the corpse explosion has not been found yet. Although Lin can use the flash technique, he is as if he is in the land of no one in any confidential location. But when looking for a specific target, you still have to know who the other party is.
In the case of mental arithmetic but not intentional, I can scare those nobles who think they are in a relatively safe situation. But if the other party deliberately hides, and someone has no idea who to look for, it is quite difficult to find this necromancer who has not appeared before without making a fuss. It's like finding a needle in a haystack.
Moreover, Lin's recent energy has also been devoted to handling the affairs of the representatives of the empress, and he has not been able to concentrate on digging out the mouse that is still hiding in the dark. So the thorn in the heart of this horizontal stem has not been removed, which is one of the reasons why everyone is not in a good mood.
In this tranquility with different thoughts, it was time for the imperial meeting to start.
