Chapter 496: Original Sin
It's one thing to keep a rumor under control, but it's another thing for people to know about it, and how would they react if the target mentioned in the rumor was right in front of the people's eyes?
Qiu Shuangyue still had the impression in his mind that before he returned to Moon Song City, Jin Yu had told him that the recent power pipeline project was about to be opened to China, and she also informed him of the city that was about to lead.
If things go well now, then Jinyu should have already arrived in the city.
I always feel that the situation is not optimistic.
Qiu Shuangyue frowned.
"You just said that His Majesty Jinyu is in the country?" Liv was also extremely shocked when she heard this, she didn't know what kind of impact those rumors would have on Jinyu.
"That'...... In which city is His Majesty Jinyu in? Liv's tone trembled, she was very nervous right now.
"Do you have a map of the country?" Qiu Shuangyue asked, "Give me a map of the whole country, maybe I can find it for you." ”
"A map of the whole country, yes? Yes, yes. Liv immediately got up and returned to her desk, then pulled out a large piece of paper folded in all directions and placed it in front of Autumn Frost Moon.
When the map of the whole country was displayed in front of Autumn Frost Moon, he immediately began to search for the location of the Manyo area.
However, this map is obviously a bit old, and there is no location of the Kazuha region on this map, but Kazuha Country does.
"If you let Jinyu see this map, it's no wonder she can't beat you to death." While looking for the location of the city on the map, Autumn Frost Moon said to Liv next to her without looking back.
"Ah, this, I can't help it." Liv whispered, "Our map here hasn't been updated for a long time, and as you know, His Majesty Jinyu rarely returns to China, so we only keep the expansion of the border in mind. ”
"That's it, that's not the point." Qiu Shuangyue waved her hand and continued to look for it on the map.
Finally, he found the location of the nearest city on the border with Manyo Country.
"Chin Ye City...... Is it. "Autumn Frost Moon drew a circle with her finger on the location of that city.
"Is His Majesty Jinyu here now?" Liv looked at the location of the Autumn Frost Moon painting, and her face changed greatly, "Here...... Here, this is our blind spot. ”
Autumn Frost understood what Liv was talking about.
Their heretical inquisitors don't have jurisdiction over that area yet.
But rumors must be faster than human legs, and that place must be full of panic by now.
Something had to be done.
"I want to ask." Autumn Frost Moon suddenly asked Liv, "How old are you now?" ”
Suddenly asked about her age, Liv was a little confused.
"This year, I'll be twenty-eight years old." Liv looked at Autumn Frost Moon and thought for a moment.
"Twenty-eight...... Qiu Shuangyue chewed on the number, "That means that when Jinyu ascended the throne, you should have only been twelve years old." ”
"Hmm." Liv nodded.
"Well, then you've been through Craft's rule, right?" Autumn Frost Moon then asked.
"yes." Liv replied again.
She didn't know what the person in front of her wanted to know, but she always felt that it was inextricably linked to what was happening right now.
"Okay, then let me ask you, what do you think of the popularity of Craft's reign?" The Autumn Frost Moon throws up this crucial question.
"People's hearts?" Liv chewed on the word, always feeling a little obscure.
In her childhood, it seemed that Craft's rule was characterless, and that the whole country was like a machine with two drops of lube once in a while, barely keeping afloat and living a mediocre and self-sufficient life.
Except, of course, for the Great Purge of Heresy two years before his abdication.
Liv still can't figure out why a country that is always calm needs such a hot purge?
"Average." Eventually, she came to this conclusion, "I think he was quite ordinary in his reign." ”
Ordinary, that is, mediocre.
"So, what do you think of Jinyu's reign?" Qiu Shuangyue asked again.
"Huh." Liv listened to this question and spread her hands, "Save it, it's useless for you to ask us people, because the Jinyu we come into contact with and the Jinyu that the people come into contact with are two completely different people, and I think you should ask ordinary people these questions." ”
That's right, too.
Qiu Shuangyue secretly thought to herself, the opinions of these people who were similar to Jin Yu's personal guards must be biased, and even if they were asked, they would not get a fair result.
"However, if I were a citizen, I think Jinyu's rating would not be too high, even lower than Clafde." Liv shook her head.
"Why do you say that?" Qiu Shuangyue couldn't help but ask.
"Because the people here have become accustomed to a life of inaction under the rule of Kraft, and this leisurely and ordinary life has transformed them, and it is impossible for them to cater to Jinyu's rule anymore." Liv sighed, "Think about what His Majesty Jinyu has done since he ascended the throne." ”
"I won't talk about starting a war." Liv spread her hands, "You all know this, and it is also an indisputable fact that Jinyu used a large amount of the treasury to buy weapons and equipment from Gear City, and now she doesn't care about the government and politics, and goes outside to do some science." ”
"Science is something that the people of this religious-dominated country don't understand and despise, and the new Pope Jin Yu doesn't like to get close to the Light, so this group of people who believe in the Halo Church can't feel the resonance from their rulers." Liv shook her head, "And I haven't said anything crucial yet." ”
"The most important thing?" Qiu Shuangyue frowned, he didn't know what was more important than those just now.
"Our country is built on religion." Liv smiled wryly, "And what this religion emphasizes is a patriarchal society. ”
Before Liv could finish speaking, Autumn Frost Moon instantly understood.
This is a country where the status of women is not high.
So.
"The fact that Jin Yu is a woman as a pope is already her original sin in the eyes of the people." Autumn Frost Moon said slowly, "Am I right? ”
Liv nodded with a wry smile, "Not bad, exactly." ”
Now Autumn Frost finally understood what Liv had said before.
In fact, it doesn't matter what Jinyu has done, as long as the fact that she is a woman is true, it is enough.
In a narrow sexist country, it is completely understandable that something like this is happening.
