Chapter 209: Amazing Reward
At night, An Fei, Suzanne and others quietly left the hotel, this time Chang was relieved that there would be no more major accidents when they returned to their homeland, and there was nothing to do in the group, only those rescued slave girls needed to be arranged, and Chris could handle this little thing. [Full text reading]
Compared with the rest of the team, most of the female slaves have a feeling of homesickness, after passing through the pass, the smiles on their faces are significantly reduced, and they always gather together in groups to talk in a low voice, the experience of becoming female slaves is very disgraceful, and they have no way to hide it, because they are all captured by the soldiers of the Shining Sand Empire under the noses of their families and fellow villagers, God knows what awaits them, maybe it is tolerance, cordiality, maybe ridicule and ridicule!
In fact, this time An Fei decided to sneak to Violet City, which was inseparable from the cowardice in his heart, just like an unconfident candidate who handed in the test paper, he was inevitably uneasy in his heart, and subconsciously hoped that he would know his score later.
In White Mountain City and Blackwater City, Black Eleven's energy is not big or small, but in this place, Black Eleven's efficiency is surprising. A lot of things An Fei didn't expect, Black Eleven had been arranged in an orderly manner in advance, a fast train pulled by eight horses, an official document that left the city late at night, and a file nearly half a foot high, everything An Fei wanted to know was in it, from the appearance and situation of Violet City after the war, the origin and recent situation of various large and small nobles, to the household registration and beliefs of residents, etc.
When the sky was just dawning, the gate of Violet City opened, and the carriage that had been waiting outside the city for a while slowly galloped into Violet City, although everyone did not sleep all night, but the four of them were not ordinary people, and their spirits showed no signs of malaise.
"Anfei, shall we go directly to see your Earl's Palace?" asked Suzanne as she looked curiously at the view of the city.
"No, ma'am, I have sent someone to inform the sheriff of Violet City, who will be waiting for us in the flower garden today. Appa said with a smile. Maybe he hasn't forgotten what happened to Suzanne in the past, or maybe it's because Suzanne has reached the peak stage of a high-level swordsman and will become a great swordsman one step further, and he has always been respectful to Susanna.
"Flower beds?"
"It's the name of a hotel and it's also the most beautiful garden in Violet City. Appa pondered: "But it's still early, we might as well walk around the city, so that the adults and the lady can understand Violet City, there are some things that can't be seen by looking at the archives." ”
"Violet City is huge?" An Fei asked softly.
"Not small, my lord, take a look at this map. Appa tapped his finger and said, "If we walk every main road once, it will probably be noon after we turn around." ”
An Fei looked at the map carefully, there are a total of six so-called main roads, three horizontal and three vertical, and each main road runs through the entire city, but ...... It was noon in a circle, and Amphi could imagine the scale of Violet City.
"It's all mine, such a big city?" asked Anfei in a voice full of suspicion. When he heard that Yuland canonized Violet to himself that day, he was not much moved, but today he walked into Violet and felt a great visual impact, looking out from the gap in the car curtain, the straight main road could not be seen at all, such a big city is his own?!
Although An Fei is well-informed, his foundation is that he is a person who can only enjoy the right to use it for 70 years after buying an inch of land, and he is really shocked to see such a huge city of his own.
I have to admit that Yolande is a character, and the reward must be rewarded to make the hearts of the people bloom and satisfied! Only by doing a good job of affection can the courtiers be grateful and serve the country or for him. An Fei couldn't help but think of Xiang Yu, who was reluctant to let go of the princes when the Chu and Han wars divided the princes, and he was reluctant to let go of the corners of the seal of the princes, yes, he was very chivalrous and brave, he could shed tears for the soldiers, and he was unstoppable on the battlefield, but he only had the power of an overlord, not the degree of an overlord, and lacked magnificent personality charm. If Xiang Yu only wants to be a general, being stingy is not a problem, but he just wants to become a generation of emperors, and what awaits him can only be betrayal one after another.
For Yoland's reward, An Fei was not only shocked, but also admired.
"Yes, sir. Appa laughed.
"Forever mine?"
"This ...... Your lordship, your title is not hereditary. ”
An Fei's enthusiasm was immediately dispelled, this is not as good as the seventy years of usufruction! He is already in his twenties, can he live to be a hundred years old?!
"Unless, you have made another contribution to the empire, Your Majesty is never stingy in rewards. Appa added.
"What kind of power do I have?"
Apashen
An Fei explained, as the master of Violet City, his power is extremely powerful, and he can be the city lord by himself, and he can change all the rules and regulations of the city by himself, but there is only one place that cannot be touched, and that is the law. Even if he is a city lord, if he kills someone in the street, he will be punished by the law. After Yolander ascended the throne, it took more than ten years to abolish the exoneration rules of hereditary nobles and nobles by means of iron and blood, and lit a bright light in this increasingly dark country. Of course, if the nobles commit a crime, the sentence will be much looser, and a king will have to consider the emotions of the nobles, so as not to intensify the contradictions, in fact, his purpose is only to restrain the nobles, and he cannot let the nobles unscrupulously mess around.
In a longitudinal comparison, the benefits of Yoland's successful reform are not obvious, the only difference is that Yolande has won the fanatical support of the people of the Mao Empire, and if anyone dares to speak ill of Yolande in the streets and alleys, it is very likely that he will be beaten to death by the angry crowd, no matter what his identity is. But if you compare horizontally, the benefits of the reform are obvious, the domestic situation of the Alison Empire and the Shining Sand Empire is not stable, and this time the Shining Sand Empire only sent a griffin flying squadron to participate in the war, because there were a large number of civilians and slaves on the Eastern Front. The class contradictions of the Maao Empire have been eased, in fact, no matter which world or dynasty, the people are the most simple, as long as they have food to eat and can live, they will never hang their heads on their belts to make trouble.
Seeing Apa repeatedly emphasizing the sanctity and seriousness of the law, An Fei snickered in his heart, he saw it farther than ordinary people, in previous years, the great nobles had legislative power, so that the laws of various cities were extremely chaotic, such as stealing, some thieves would be executed, some would be cut off, some would be put in prison, and they could be redeemed if they spent money. Turning chaos into unity, on the one hand, made the country clearer and put an end to the misdeeds of the aristocracy, and on the other hand, it was a harbinger of centralization.
As for whether the law is extremely serious, An Fei knows it in his heart, from a shameless point of view, if he can't be caught, he doesn't break the law, An Fei is an assassin in that world, his hands are covered with blood, although he thinks that everyone he kills has a way to die, but blood is blood after all! From the perspective of hypocrisy, the law has too many flaws, if the law is not flawed, the so-called lawyers will starve to death. For example, he Anfei, he killed Philip's grandson, killed a dozen people, and now he has become a hero? Even if the Mao Empire has the concept of legitimate defense, but ...... More than a dozen people! Why should you be judged to be overly defensive?
As long as there is the factor of power, the law will never be sacred, the key depends on the level of the individual's game, and whether there is someone behind it, even if all the nobles dare not influence the law, but Yolande can still be, because he has supreme power!
If Yolande knew that after he had worked hard to suppress Philip's backlash and drop the charges for Anfei, Anfei would have been touched here, he would definitely jump to his feet and curse.
While Appa was tirelessly explaining, the carriage had already walked from the north wall to the south wall, and An Fei poked his head out to look at the sun, and suddenly asked, "Apa, if I'm not mistaken, the color of blood should be based on action, right?"
"Yes. Appa nodded.
"You're an Assassin?"
"Hmm...... So to speak. ”
"Not really. ”
"What do you mean, sir?" asked Appa for some reason.
"You're well disguised, and you can't really tell what you're doing when you're talking to you. An Fei laughed. He's smiling on his face, but he's slandering in his heart, what else does he mean? It's implying that you're too verbose!
"Adults can really joke. Appa smiled bitterly and shook his head: "If I had been shown to be who I am, I would have died a long time ago." ”
"Black Eleven, you're intelligence-oriented, right?"
"Hmm. ”
"Actually, you two should be replaced, one is laughing and talking, and looks like he's doing intelligence, and the other always has a dead face, and looks like an assassin. ”
"I, when am I going to be dead...... No, you're a dead man's face!" Black Eleven said aura.
"When I first met you, I came out covered with a black cloth, but fortunately I was bolder, otherwise I would have been scared to death by you. ”
"Didn't we just know each other then? I don't know you at all. Black Eleven explained with embarrassment: "Besides, I have a scar on my face, which is easily recognized." ”
"Speaking is also a word-by-word spit, you look at Apa, your mouth is like a river, you have to learn from others!"
"Okay, okay, I'll change the line, right?" Black Eleven said helplessly.
Appa laughed as Ann Fei praised him for his ability to speak, to say many, many things, but he was embarrassed to continue.
