Chapter 1128 The Emperor's Ministers, Commoners
"The people are stupid and short-sighted, they won't understand me. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info"In the imperial capital, in the church of the Dharma, in the magnificent space, the emperor complained to C.C. about the ignorance and stupidity of the people of the empire: "They don't know what to do except to eat, and if I hadn't told them what to do, they wouldn't have known how to build houses and build a country, they need leaders." "Leaders can spur them on to accomplish great things, build cities, unify continents, and if it were not for me, they would be nothing more than an insignificant speck in history, but now they will be remembered by posterity as my people. ”
Recently, the emperor has been under a lot of pressure, and many people below have neglected the people's miserable documents, so that the emperor can not bear to hide from C.C. and pour bitter water.
"Today, there are still people who ask me that I should explain my majesty to the people one by one, so that they can understand the great strategy of the empire. If the people could understand my strategy, then they wouldn't be the people. "The king was clearly very disdainful of the people who supported the imperial pedestal.
In his opinion, the people only need to follow him, the emperor, for no reason, and he has completed the grand cause of unifying the continent, which proves that his wisdom and ability are far higher than the people, I don't know how many times, and let him work hard to explain to the people that it is stupid.
C.C. was just listening, and she knew very well that being a leader and being a leader and the people at the bottom were inherently opposites at some point. A good leader doesn't have to be a great achiever sometimes, but he is definitely good at guiding the minds of the people at the bottom.
The easiest way is to channel the vanity of the population, and the usual means is to set an example and give them the best resources. You see that some people are appreciated for their work, and if they have good clothes, good animals, and good houses, other people will work hard, but even if they create enough value, they will no longer get the typical prize. The leader only gives away a few things, and he gets a reward of several times, dozens of times, and hundreds of times, and then the leader can use these rewards to achieve his goals.
Of course, this is already a relatively clever method, and there are still methods that rely on force and class consciousness without any guidance to oppress the peasants to stay on the land and cultivate the land, and to keep the most basic grain surplus and pay taxes. This powerful method is naturally very effective, especially in good weather, but in the event of a natural disaster, the peasants may starve to death.
As a large social group, the empire naturally cannot rely on one or two means alone to complete its rule, and at this time the empire uses the means of inducement in the army, and the second means of suppression in the rule of the people in the country.
Moult can't be said to be unintelligent, but he still can't completely control the people. All he can do is to concentrate a large amount of resources, and then share the spoils with the nobles, so that these people who may challenge him can settle down first, as for whether the people below are dead or alive, sometimes it is really not in the emperor's consideration. What the emperor wants is a stable imperial power, those who are far away from the people, and the people's rebellion is naturally resisted by the generals, and if the generals rebel, the emperor may not be able to stop them.
"When there is a disaster in the Empire, when I have no funds and no relief, why can't they be with me?" the Emperor did not understand.
"You enjoy the most luxurious life in the world, naturally I don't understand their thoughts, in fact, they also want to live like the emperor, eat the best and drink the best, if you can let them live the same life as you, they will naturally recognize you. If not, they will naturally have reason to oppose you, and jealousy is also human nature, just like you were jealous of your brother a few years ago. ”
...... is really too wise, and he scolded the emperor back in a few words. Moult had nothing to say: "Pope, you are wise, but what can I do? I must not endure endless complaints and criticisms just because there is no fighting." "I am the emperor of the empire, I should be the same age as the sun and the moon, the same age as the stars, I am the greatest ruler in the history of the empire, how can I be disliked by these lowly lambs, my wisdom should spread like a breeze on the continent. ”
The emperor of the feelings takes his reputation very seriously, there were wars in the past, and there was money in the account, and the nobles naturally ignored the suffering of the people under their rule, and only cared about their own happiness. Now that they can't beat the other side, the nobles have the possibility of bankruptcy one by one, so they began to express their opinions to the emperor, and even splashed dirty water on the emperor's head, saying that all this is the emperor's fault.
If it weren't for the emperor's reckless military force, how could the economy under the rule of these aristocratic ministers be so bad, and now that there is a truce, even the income that originally belonged to him will be gone, and it is the emperor's fault when you think about it.
Therefore, the relationship between the emperor, the ministers, and the people is also complicated, there are only eternal interests and no eternal enemies, the world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit, these words are really not wrong at all.
The ministers used the power granted by the emperor to directly manage the people, but once the people made a change in order to prevent the people from directly attacking themselves, they would transfer the hatred of the people to the emperor's head, or directly use the emperor's name to kill the people in order to protect their reputation.
And the emperor enjoys the people's fat and ointment collected by officials everywhere, and is extravagant, but he still wants to leave behind the wisdom of the ages, and if something happens, he hopes to let the corrupt officials take the blame. At the same time, the emperor also hoped that the people would serve him with hardships and hard work, without complaints.
And the common people endure the harshest exploitation, but because there is a way to rise, they desperately want to rise to the privileged class, and for this they do not hesitate to use any means, the most common is to let their children have a good life.
Such a country, such a world, all operate for the sake of one profit.
C.C. can see clearly, but can't change it, because the world is the same no matter what. Let's just say that there are gods in this world, but what can it be, it's not the same. Nor can God make humans good.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, you don't have to worry, the war is not over yet. C.C. said with his eyes closed.
"Pope, would you like to dispatch the Knights of the Legion?" the Emperor's expression began to change with joy.
"No, it's not time to attack yet, because we don't know them yet, please bear with me. ”
C.C.'s discussion with the Emperor seems to have little to do with the villages near the Hill of Arnus, but the idea of acting for profit also affects the people of Gota.
Khaki was one of them, and he consulted with a group of young men to kill the SDF members who had come down from the Hill of Arnus to communicate.
The people are not all kind, "kill them, we can go to the Black Castle or enter the city, find the big people in exchange for bounties, maybe we can even be knighted directly." ”
Khaki was also moved, "But they are very powerful, I heard that hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the hill of Arnus were killed by these people, you see that their vehicles are not pulled by wurms, and they may still have weapons." ”
"What's wrong with the weapon, we're just civilians, even the knight lord won't use force against us for no reason. Isn't there a mercenary in your house, and he also has a weapon, and he cut you?"
Khaki shook his head, but it was.
"As long as we plan well, we can kill two of them, and then hide the bodies, and then we will be able to develop. Although the thin young man was dark, he was unusually bold: "How many of you, do you want to do it?"
Bounties and knighthoods, and just a few weirdos on the other side, so do it!
