Chapter 250: The System of the Kingdom
After Cecil finished talking to the earl, he left the earl's room and walked into the hall of the earl's suit, in the middle of the hall sat the earl's daughter Ophelina, who had not seen her for a few months, Ophelina's appearance became more and more beautiful, and with the improvement of her cultivation, Ophelina's expression became more and more majestic. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Cecil stepped forward to greet Ophelina, who had not seen her for a few months, and Ophelina saw Cecil very enthusiastically: "Hello Cecil, no, Baron Cecil, you have been famous in a few months, I have heard your name in the royal capital, and you have faintly threatened the center of Reela City in Samara Province even in the northern border towns, you are a bit too much, it is said that the Blood Eagle Knights have a little opinion of you, and Reela City itself is a remote and savage place." As a result, the development of your city has caused some merchants to move to your town, and they seem to be very unhappy. “
Cecil smiled shyly, the royal power of the Soloran Kingdom is strong, under the acting official system, the territory of the nobles is generally only farms, and the cities are not developed, on the contrary, the territory of the direct garrisons of the kingdoms is commercially developed, and the people are prosperous, and the scale effect of the population is gradually formed, which further strengthens the strength of the king and consolidates the royal power. And Cecil's Bone Tooth City obviously broke this convention, and there was a move of merchants from Reela City to Bone Tooth City, which of course made the Blood Eagle Knights dissatisfied.
Cecil smiled and said, "This is only a temporary situation, isn't there peace with the Orc Empire?" With the progress of the mutual market, not only will the population of my Bone Tooth City flow back, but also the inland merchants will move to Reela City because of trade, and the Blood Eagle Knights not only have not lost anything, but have become even stronger. “
Ophelina smiled: "That's true, because the population here will continue to increase, and our Temple of Life has considered building a temple to attract believers, I think Reela City will be more prosperous in the future, but if it is purely from the geographical environment, it is still your small city that is more suitable as a location for mutual markets." Of course, the kingdom will not give this opportunity to you little lords. “
"Even if I really give me the policy of mutual market, I don't dare to accept it, in that case, I'm afraid I will be changed by the king." Cecil said helplessly.
As the two men talked, they talked about the king's sensitivity to the relationship between the lords, and both of them realized that it was not appropriate to go any further. Ophelina persuaded Cecil: "Don't be too sad, for a lord of a lord of a baron title, what you have done has exceeded people's imagination, this is already a very good achievement, you can be completely proud of yourself, you might as well focus on how to please the king, if you can continue to work hard, you may be able to be like my father in the future." Become the Count in control of a province.
Cecil smiled silently, and said in his heart that such a result would be good, if you knew that I used the Ultimate Seven-Headed Serpent to severely damage the orc army and make the war disappear invisibly, if you knew that I defeated your beloved Prince Maisar and obtained the inheritance of Lantellus that many paladins dreamed of, would you be shocked. Of course, the current Cecil will not say these things, before he has absolute strength, casually exposing these things may lead to death for himself, so this matter is just a small secret between him and the Grand Priest Alonso, almost all the paladins feel the inheritance of Lantellos, but few people know that person is Cecil. Perhaps more people thought that Prince Maisar had received that inheritance.
Thinking of this, Cecil said to Ophelina, "It seems that this can only be the case, the various conflicts of interest in the kingdom are really intertwined, and it is difficult for me to see clearly. I can only rely on my own efforts, and I continue to be appreciated by the king. “
"Yes, in the kingdom, the king is the greatest, and his will cannot be changed, so I advise you not to go the wrong way, your territory has developed well enough, if you want better, I am afraid that you will go astray, there is a saying called too much, I hope you can understand what he means." Ophelina said with a smile.
Cecil's heart thumped when he heard this, Ophelina's words were not said for no reason, he meant to make me obey the king's will, honestly be an ordinary baron, and then promote by establishing merit for the king?
Ophelina seemed to see Cecil's thoughts, and said with a smile, "There is actually nothing wrong with this path I pointed out to you, although the disadvantage is that sooner or later you will encounter the ceiling of promotion, just like my father, it is difficult to rise to this position and take another step to be promoted." But it is also clearly the only way to go in a society with a stable system. ”
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and Cecil immediately heard the off-strings. What's more, the speaker may not be unintentional, when Ophelina said the last sentence, she focused on "stable system" very seriously, how could a smart person like Cecil not hear what she meant? Cecil also had to admit that what Ophelina said was not wrong, under the current system of the Sauroran Kingdom, the nobles have almost no possibility of breaking through the existing system, this system was created by the founding emperor of the Sauroran Kingdom with his life, the previous generations of emperors have worked hard to continuously kill countless nobles, after countless times of blood and fire purge, the system that was finally established was centralized, and it is also a guarantee that the small Sauroran Kingdom can be in front of the human kingdom loyalty, where is it so easy to break through, It's not easy to break through him.
Cecil thought of this and said with a smile: "Where is this system so easy to break through, I think I still try to get the approval of the king, and try to keep up with the earl." Of course, this sentence is a bit insincere. Becoming a great nobleman like Count Cassikud may have been Cecil's dream more than a year ago, or even a delusion, but in the past year or so, he has grown rapidly, has come into contact with so many high-end people and things, and is even about to become an enemy of an abyss lord.
