Blue Mercury.

January 6 of the Guangming calendar.

An important and special day.

Today, His Majesty the God King will begin to lay out divine graces in the Temple of Light to reward the people of the Kingdom of God who have made meritorious contributions to the Kingdom of God.

After all the Blue Star people got the news, whether they had a high status or a low status, they were very much looking forward to it, and in private, they were also discussing endlessly.

"What will His Majesty the God-King reward us?"

"Land, money, status, which do you want?"

In one room, one person asked the others.

"I'm a commoner, and I want to be a nobleman, a nobleman who can live in the city."

"I want to have a piece of land of my own, the bigger the better!"

"My teacher said that I have a lot of potential, so I want to become a noble priest of the Kingdom of God and serve His Majesty the God King."

All kinds of wishes, but almost none of the Blue Star people said that they wanted to get a sum of money.

Blue Star people are very smart, they know that a little bit of money does not bring them any sense of security, because no matter how much money there is, there will be a day when it will be spent, if they have the same status as the nobles, with the land that belongs to them, they can live a stable and comfortable life, and they don't have to worry about becoming a slave who controls life and death by others, they don't have to worry about becoming a commoner who is exploited by the nobles at will, and don't worry, their descendants will live the same life as they once did.

Yes, for the ordinary Blue Star people, after returning to land, even if they stepped on solid ground, they did not get the sense of security they imagined. On the contrary, there is a strong sense of crisis that haunts them from time to time, because they are not nobles, nor are they warriors and priests with powerful divine powers, but ordinary believers who can give a little bit of piety, and their future is in the hands of His Majesty the God King and the nobles.

The benevolence of His Majesty the God King is unquestionable, those days at sea. Even if there are some wrongdoers, as long as they are not intentionally committed, His Majesty the God King will forgive them, and after a nobleman once took advantage of his noble status to commit the crime of disregarding human life, he was furious when he learned of the situation, and not only ordered the nobleman to be executed, but also issued an oracle: "The life of every citizen of the Kingdom of God is equal and should be respected." In the future, I will personally inquire about any unnatural death of a citizen of God's kingdom! It must not be allowed to relapse from the arbitrary deprivation of the lives of others! ”

After this sensational case of the Kingdom of God, there have been no similar murders since then, and the love of ordinary Blue Star civilians for His Majesty the God King has risen to the top!

But back on land, the situation is different, there are more Blue Star people, and the place to live is wider. There are even more places that the god king can't control, and if that brutal nobleman is unhappy one day, then they, the commoners, will open the knife, and life and death will all depend on the mood of the nobles.

To know. The legal system of the Blue Star society is not perfect, but the social hierarchy is very clear, nobles are nobles, and commoners are commoners...... There is no reason for such a clear difference. It was just to facilitate the nobles to manage the commoners, and the power of life and death of the commoners was all in the hands of the nobles, and the nobles killed a commoner. At most, you can lose some money.

Ordinary civilians are nervous, for those who have become the aristocratic class by virtue of their ability and merit, it can be said that they are looking forward to the divine grace of His Majesty the God King, some people hope to obtain a noble title that will be inherited for life, some people want to get a large fief, and some people hope to be promoted to become an elder or a higher level of internal affairs officer, all of which are insufficient.

……

10 a.m., inside the Temple of Light.

In the temple, which is more than the size of a football field and has a layout similar to the ancient Roman council chamber, it is full of blue star people wearing all kinds of gorgeous costumes.

These Blue Star people, seated in the two central rows, are the 23 council elders of the Kingdom of God.

Standing behind the council elders were 26 Blue Star generals wearing armor and delicate swords at their waists.

Sitting on the stone steps on either side were more than 800 elders with high status in the kingdom of God, as well as nobles who had won many meritorious services by virtue of their abilities.

In the Kingdom of God, basically all the high-status Blue Star people are here.

Above the center of the temple is an ornate throne inlaid with a large number of gems and crystals, and on the seats, a layer of whale skin blanket is covered - this blanket is very valuable, only obtained from a special species of deep-sea whale, and it has a soft touch, similar to the tiger skin of the earth.

"His Majesty the God King has arrived!"

An announcement sounded, and a tall king wearing a purple royal robe and a crystal crown walked into the temple.

"Woo~~"

The crisp and beautiful sound of the conch horn resounded through this huge temple.

"Meet His Majesty the God King!"

All the Blue Star people in the hall bowed and saluted.

Tianming sat on the throne, straightened his clothes, glanced at the blue stars with anticipation in his eyes below, took out a long silk text from the ability space, put it in his hand, and said:

"Since returning to the mainland, the people of the kingdom of God have been busy with various construction work, and it is my negligence and fault that I have not had time to get the gifts that belong to you...... Now that the City of Light has been built and the people of the Kingdom of God have settled down on the land, today is the day when I fulfill my promises and distribute the divine grace to all those who have made meritorious contributions in the process of defending the Kingdom of God and building the Kingdom of God, and all those who have made meritorious contributions to the Kingdom of God will receive the gifts they deserve. ”

"Thank you for the gift of His Majesty the God King!" All the Blue Star people bowed down and bowed.

Tianming unfolded the text in his hand and read to the text on it:

"First of all, I would like to announce the aristocracy system of the Kingdom of God that I have established, and from now on, the nobility of the Kingdom of God will be divided into three categories: the temple lords, the priest lords, and the civil lords."

"The so-called civil lords, that is, those who do not have divine power, but have outstanding ability in the management of the affairs of the kingdom of God, have made outstanding contributions, a total of six grades: junior civil lords, lower civil lords, middle civil lords, high civil lords, upper civil lords, super civil lords, these six ranks, the first civil lords can get 500 acres of land that will never pay taxes, the lower civil lords can get 1,000 acres, and the middle civil lords can get 2,000 acres, each time the number is doubled...... The highest rank of super-rank civil lord can get 16,000 acres of land that will never pay taxes. ”

"Not only that, but now the feudal lords. His land can be transferred to his descendants, the land that belongs to them will be passed on from generation to generation, and no one can use any means to deprive him! ”

His Highness's Blue Star people began to calculate, and some of them were very excited, because they felt that as long as they had 1,2000 acres of permanent land without paying taxes, they would be very satisfied.

"However," Tianming said in a changed tone, "the title of civil lord cannot be passed on to his descendants, in order to ensure that it is equally fair to all the people of the kingdom of God." Any citizen of the kingdom of God can pass the guò examination to obtain the position of civil magistrate, and then grant this position according to his merits...... This is fair to all, and all people with smart minds have the possibility of getting the title of civil lord. ”

Rumble~

His Royal Highness's Blue Star people immediately discussed, what does His Majesty the God King mean by this? Since he was a nobleman, the title could not be passed on to his descendants. Why do commoners have a chance to get this knighthood?

Some Blue Star people are really difficult to understand, but no one dares to disobey the meaning of His Majesty the God King, so he can only bury his doubts in the bottom of his heart and wait for His Majesty the God King. Go ahead and say what's next.

"The second type of title is the priesthood."

This title is reserved for the priests and elders of the kingdom of God, and is determined by the divine power and ability of the priests and elders. It is divided into six classes: primary priests, lower priests, middle priests, high priests, upper priests, and super priests.

The junior priest must be at least a person above the rank of a priest and obtain a certain amount of merit before he can obtain it, rewarding 3,000 acres of land that will never pay taxes; The lower priests wanted those above the rank of minor priests. and obtain the corresponding meritorious service, and grant 6,000 acres of land that will never pay taxes......

The highest priest, the super-rank priest, can get 96,000 acres of land that will never pay taxes. ”

"In the same way, the priesthood can only be obtained by ability and merit, and the land obtained can be passed on to his descendants, but the title can only last for one generation, not to his descendants."

Rumble~~

At this time, the Blue Star people of His Royal Highness were a little uncalm, and a few anxious Blue Star people had already stood up and said anxiously: "Your Majesty the God King, this kind of title system is not very reasonable, nobles can be passed on to their descendants, and the children of nobles are still nobles, not commoners." ”

"Then I will now remove your title and demote you to a commoner, so that you will lose the opportunity to become a nobleman, and you and your descendants can only be commoners forever, do you think this is reasonable?"

"This ......" The Blue Star man choked suddenly, and some couldn't answer.

Tianming in the palace said: "Nobles will always be nobles, and commoners will always be commoners, which is not fair and reasonable for all beings. When the two mothers were giving birth to life, and the two babies were croaking to the ground at the same time, they did not know whether they were nobles or commoners when they were not familiar with the world, but when they grew up, the child of noble birth, riding a horse and holding a whip in his hand, whipped the commoner-born child in the field, and the flesh and blood were blurred...... How unfortunate is this? ”

"Before the end came, most of you, who were not so-called nobles, but commoners, or even lower slaves, before the end of the world, but now? With your efforts, you have become the nobles of the kingdom of God, but do you want to be the kind of nobles before the end? Don't you feel angry and helpless when you were a commoner and were bullied by that kind of aristocracy? Have you ever begged the gods that you want justice, that you want a chance to get ahead? ”

Most of His Highness's Blue Star people fell silent, and some of them fell into the painful memories that could not be looked back on, and even clenched their fists, and their eyes burst out with hatred and anger.

"I am the one who gives you fairness, and it is I who give you the opportunity to get ahead. Now, when the time comes to re-establish the rules and divide the nobility, then I will give you not only the reward you deserve, but also the millions of ordinary people of God's kingdom, what is this reward? It's fairness, it's a chance to get ahead! From then on, both commoners and nobles had the same chance to get ahead! ”

Tianming is deafening and authentic.

"His Majesty the God King is wise!"

The vast majority of the Blue Star people in the hall understood the good intentions of His Majesty the God King, and while they were ashamed of their selfishness for a while, they also threw themselves to the ground for the insight of His Majesty the God King! Even some of the Blue Star people who disagreed with him were silent at the moment, for fear that His Majesty the God King would deprive him of his noble position.

"Of course, I know that the people of the kingdom of God have no end to their pursuit of glory, and the civil lords and priests are far from satisfying the great contributions made by some people to the kingdom of God in the process of building the kingdom of God...... All the way to the ninth-class gods, the first-class gods can get 20,000 acres of permanent, tax-free land, the second-class gods can get 40,000 acres, which are doubled in turn, and the highest ninth-class gods can get 5.12 million acres of land. ”

"The land obtained by the Divine Lord can also be passed on to your descendants, not only that, but the title of the Divine Lord can also be passed on to more than three descendants at different times in the form of one level reduction from generation to generation...... This is a special reward for those who have made great contributions to the Kingdom of God, and I will not be stingy to give them more rewards! ”

Rumble~~~

His Royal Highness's Blue Star people are really a sensation, it turns out that His Majesty the God King is not allowed to allow real nobles to appear, but it is just that it is more difficult to become a real noble.

The Lord of God is a real nobleman!

"In addition, for the army, I have a special arrangement, the position system is still increased from platoon commander, company commander, battalion commander, regiment commander, brigade commander, division commander, army commander, commander, but the military rank system has been changed to the military knight system, which is the soldier knight, lieutenant (second lieutenant, lieutenant, captain), colonel (major, lieutenant colonel, colonel, colonel), general (brigadier general, major general, lieutenant general, general), marshal (marshal, generalissimo), because of the professional attributes of the army, it does not divide the land, but according to different military lords, different levels of salaries will be issued, After retirement, they can enjoy a high pension treatment, and even according to the merits they have established, they can be promoted from the military lord to the god lord class, and they can get the land belonging to their own ......"

"The same is true for civil lords and priests, as long as the merits have accumulated to a certain level, and when they can no longer be promoted, as long as the conditions are met, they can be promoted to god lords and continue to climb the ......"

…… (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you to Sister Chengcheng, the title system was what she helped me come up with, such a smart and beautiful girl.
