Chapter 288 Jealousy does not bring happiness, but the goose is deceiving, and the driving force is the source of progress
"Absolutely not!"
When Wren came back to his senses, the nobles present at the Diet had already begun to speak enthusiastically, and the greatest contributor to the progress of society was not who did what, but through communication to reach the final decision. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The aristocratic who stood up had a powdered face, powdered his face, and put on lipstick. Male aristocrats were not unfamiliar with makeup, and during the Holy Empire, nobles were happy to smear their faces. The practice can begin with the worship of gods and nature, where people tattoo their faces or draw certain patterns, totems, or runes to express their reverence for the gods during sacrifices. This habit soon became the exclusive privilege of high society, and only those who were "closest to God" had the power to make up this makeup.
To this day, many aristocrats still like to wear makeup, and when Wren sometimes doesn't look good, Funkos will also make up for him. Men's makeup should not be seen as a sign of femininity, it is a very orthodox social etiquette these days.
The nobleman's voice was loud, awakening Wren from his contemplation, and he looked up, and the man said eloquently: "Untouchables are like dogs, when they wag their tails at you and beg for mercy, you may reward him with a bone for soft-heartedness, but when he has a bone, he will want more bones, even well-cooked pieces of meat." The greed of these lowly people is as bottomless as the abyss, today we have agreed to their terms, tomorrow they will make other more excessive demands, should we still satisfy them?", the nobleman straightened up, patting his clothes crumpled by waving his arms in excitement, "Therefore, I think there must be no soft-heartedness and charity for them, we have given them what should be given to them, and what they should not get, do not expect to get." ā
"I'm done talking!", he bowed to the Quartet and sat down again.
The entire hall of Congress was buzzing, and a large part of the nobles still had a positive attitude towards this nobleman's speech. Once someone from outside the aristocratic class enters the Imperial Diet, it will inevitably turn the Imperial Parliament into a miasma, and how can these commoners, who do not know the major affairs of the state, do not know the great truths, and only think about some trivial matters of life every day, govern the country well?
The three leaders of the aristocratic group sitting at the front smiled and did not show any obvious agreement or disapproval, they were all preoccupied with the trinkets in their hands, and turned a deaf ear to the speeches and comments of the other nobles.
They would certainly not have made any comments at this time, and as the final nobles, they would have to end the discussion with a concluding statement at the end when the situation was clear. Having been at the center of politics for a long time, these bigwigs have long known how to make themselves more authoritative.
Someone stood up and began to talk eloquently, saying nothing more than the idea that the power belonging to the aristocracy should not be divided and ceded to the commoners. This statement is undoubtedly very correct in terms of the route, as a real ruler, of course, you don't want some rats to get into your house, but sometimes you can't do what you want. Prime Minister Gamwen has not stopped inquiring, and Empress Pars is like a stone statue, and the atmosphere gradually becomes delicate, and some sensitive people seem to find that there is something not quite right in today's parliament.
Something wasn't quite right, and it finally reached its peak when Baron Tria stood up.
Tria and Wren also had a meal in the first half of this year, when Empress Pars was officially crowned Emperor of Orlando VII, and Wren came back to watch the ceremony, and happened to run into Tria in the process. In the first half of the year, Tria was just an ordinary nobleman without a title, but he has now inherited his father's title and officially become a baron of the Orlando Empire.
When summer comes, Tria and his father and family return to their hometown in the north to escape the heat, the weather in the north is cool, and the family thinks about hunting when they have nothing to do, and there are relatively few entertainment activities in this era, and the north is relatively barren and has no fun to do. Compared to the bustling south, the northern suburbs have more prey and a more complex environment, which is also more suitable for hunting. The journey at the beginning was indeed smooth sailing, and a group of noble lords were basically not in any danger under the protection of a bunch of guards and knights.
On the sixth day, Tria's father shot a horned deer with his own hands, which was the first time that the old man had shot his prey completely independently on this hunting trip, and he was so excited that he had to skin the deer himself - the fur can isolate the temperature, it doesn't matter when the animal is alive, once the animal is dead and not skinned as soon as possible, the continuous heat preservation and blood circulation are likely to cause a large number of bacteria in the animal's body, causing corruption from the inside out, so that the whole prey is inedible.
It was in the process of peeling that there was a little accident, the knife used for peeling was too sharp, and it cut the little finger of the unskilled aristocratic lord. Of course, as the head of the family, the noble lord with the title of viscount will not show it even if it is really painful. He washed the wound with water very generously and said that it didn't matter, this small injury could not knock him down as a warrior.
After another four days, the noble lord began to have a fever and was soon bedridden. The number of hunters is indeed quite large, and almost the whole family goes out, and it takes some time to turn back immediately. Soon Tria's father, the hapless aristocratic lord, began to have a confused consciousness and fell into a coma from time to time. Although they eventually returned to the fiefdom, the priest still told them that they had come too late.
Tria's father was cursed by the devil, and this curse could only be dissolved when it had just been applied, and it was useless even if the cardinal came after falling into a coma.
The noble lord eventually died tragically, and the cause of death was a curse of the devil...... Wren thinks tetanus is more likely.
So Tria inherited the title and became a young nobleman. Originally, Tria could not attend the Congress, after all, a national meeting of this level was not something that Tria, a young man who had not established even the slightest meritorious service, could attend. But who told him that his whole family was a staunch royalist? Empress Pars gave him a special decree allowing him to sit in Parliament. Parliament has always been the home of Empress Pars, and if she asks for this, it is natural that no one will oppose her demand.
Tria stood up and bowed, and then uttered the first words of the day in Congress that surprised everyone.
"I think that we can make concessions to the needs of the common people as appropriate!", this sentence is really groundbreaking, and for a moment everyone's eyes are focused on this young man. Tria didn't have the slightest stage fright, and he was mentally prepared long before he was about to say this. As a young raider, it is absolutely impossible to go far if you simply rely on the grace of your father. Her Majesty the Empress Pars's affection for him will also be worn out by his repeated mediocre and incompetent performances, and then he will be completely abandoned.
So he has to show a different side, and this side, this sentence to unveil.
Gan Wen lowered his head slightly, raised his eyes to look at Tria, but his eyes drifted to Ren on the side, Ren shook his head slightly, this is not the person he arranged, Gan Wen immediately retracted his gaze, knowing it. There are three main players in the whole thing, Wren is the formulator, he is the executor, and there is an insider and beneficiary, which is the Queen of Pars behind her. While Wren and Gampon were outside, Empress Pars did not stop, and Tria obviously obeyed Empress Pars's secret order to dare to make a big statement on such an occasion.
It's just that this young man is too young, and youth is both a capital and a shortcoming. Gampon had spent his entire life at the heart of imperial politics, and his gaze was unmatched. Today, Tria may stand up as a vanguard officer at the request of Empress Pars, but it will also become a target because of this. If he has been favored in his life, he will naturally have nothing to worry about, but as long as one day the Empress Pars loses interest and care for him, these nobles who can remember their grudges for a lifetime will pounce on him and tear him alive.
But then again, everyone's path is their own choice, and even if someone else chokes you, you can't take a path you don't want to take.
"I don't know if you have noticed that the Self-Salvation Association, which played a disgraceful role in the Balatan tragedy, is such a non-governmental organization. In fact, in many places, there are similar groups or organizations. The fact that these groups and organizations are now discredited cannot be ignored. In the ...... of Na Ul Chen", Tria glanced at Wren, the governor of Na Woo Le Chen, the Marquis of Rhine, who had stepped down, and as the premier "tyrant" of the Au Le Chan during Orlando VI, the role of the Rhine was enormous.
After Empress Pars ascended the throne, she did not know what her considerations were, so she transferred Twright to become the governor of Nawu Lechen, and transferred Rhine to the Western Front to run the province of Reynolds. It may be that Rhine is too capable in political affairs, so the Empress Pars wants him to stabilize Reynolds, a place where the people are strong. Of course, it is not excluded that the Marquis of Rhine was an important minister during the period of Orlando VI, and he had the huge weapon of destruction in the granary of the empire, so he had to be taken away to avoid accidents.
Tria glanced at Wren because both the Marquis of Rhine and the Count of Twright were inextricably linked. The Count of Terlet was a close friend of Wren's father, and the Marquis of Rhine and Wren's father were also very close. There's an inexplicable emotion in Tria's eyes, as well as envy and jealousy.
There is no way, who made Wren a golden nobleman? He has an absolute advantage that others can't have, and even if he is down, he will be sent to the big nobles.
