Politics is probably the noblest thing in the world.

But also the dirtiest.

For the sake of noble ideals and aspirations, many people can sacrifice their lives and be generous and righteous in order to realize their ideals.

can also drag the whole country to bury himself for his own selfish interests and desires.

The imperial capital has become a pot of porridge, but for the common people, it is as lively as the New Year.

At the end of February, the Imperial Diet staged another all-out military exercise, and Alfred was thrown out of his boots, grabbing the inkwell on the table and throwing it back, smashing the head of one of the councillors. If you want to be a big man these days, you really can't do it without a little effort. In an instant, everyone forgot about the parliamentary bills, rolled up their sleeves and went to work, and it was as lively as a bathhouse.

Someone was pulling the rack, holding that impulsive nobleman, but using words to appease Alfred. The old fellow kicked the man in front of him, and he fell on his back. Then the nobleman, who had a good relationship with him, became angry and punched Alfred in the old face. Don't think that if you are the speaker of the Imperial Diet, I will not dare to beat you.

What, you dare to hit the speaker of the Imperial Parliament? What a leopard guts of an ambitious leopard, and the brothers beat him together!

I beat you, you beat him, he came and beat me, and at last he hit someone.

This is known as the minister of the humerus of the empire.

But it is undeniable that this trick is really customary, and the organs of the entire empire have almost come to a standstill, just for the sake of fighting.

"I really didn't expect these big people to be so ...... Wayward?", Tina couldn't help but sigh as she bit her bread and drank the corn soup.

She has always lived in the remote countryside of Greenland, and has always been in awe of the imperial ruling class, because it is this group of people who have suppressed the church for more than 300 years, and it is very difficult for the church to breathe. In her mind, these nobles should be very decent, educated and upper-class people, perhaps with hooked noses, yin owl eyes, and make people shudder when their eyes roll. But they are very cultured, slow to speak, and some of their movements can be very contrived, but they are all civilized people.

But their performance in the past few days is not as good as that of the little ruffians in the countryside.

At least when the ruffians can't beat people, they don't spit on others.

If you want to talk about spitting, it also happened in the Imperial Diet. Several parliamentarians found an opportunity to drag Speaker Hussein to a corner and beat him violently, and spat on him after the beating, which made Speaker Hussein almost jump up in anger, and also made him so disgusted that he vomited in the auditorium of the Imperial Assembly.

The people at the table, Rosie laughed twice and scratched his head, "Teacher, don't think too highly of the nobles, but don't underestimate them either." The silver cutlery in his hand shimmered dazzlingly in the light, "Actually, these are all acting." ”

Tina stopped eating and frowned at Rosie, "Does it mean anything to spit?

Rossi shook his head, "It's acting, and it's also to further anger Hussein. Speaker Hussein is the only speaker in the Imperial Diet who is a staunch supporter of Prince Heinsses, and the advantage of provoking him is that he will 'oppose'. Sometimes people will go against their hearts and make some compromises, but this is where Speaker Hussein comes in, and he will help you to deny things. Take His Majesty the Emperor's request to investigate the matter of the nobles colluding with the thieves to murder other nobles as soon as possible, in fact, it can be found out by mobilizing some officials and garrisons of the Investigation Department, if Speaker Alfred first proposed this bill, no matter whether the bill is good or bad, Speaker Hussein will directly oppose it.

For His Majesty the Emperor, Alfred was not wrong to stand on his side. But Speaker Hussein is not wrong, he has been insulted, there will definitely be personal emotions, and the empire must also take care of his personal emotions, and he is not wrong, but this matter will be dragged down indefinitely.

I'm just using an analogy, but that's politics, in order to achieve the end, the means will be unscrupulous. ”

After hearing this, Tina only felt that she was too naïve, the world was too complicated, and she couldn't help but smack her tongue: "Forget it, I'd better be honest and be my ordinary people." By the way, Rosie, I found that you didn't settle down to pray or read the Bible during this time. It's not good, Archbishop Rodian asked me to keep an eye on you, and I can't let you waste any longer. ”

Rosie put down his knife and fork and coughed lightly, and everyone sitting around the table got up, saluted, and left. Unconsciously, Rosie, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old young man, actually has such exaggerated power and energy.

He looked directly at Tina, "Teacher, I have some questions, I hope you can answer them for me." ”

Tina also put down her knife and fork, her expression extremely serious. She suddenly found that this little guy who had lived with her for thirteen years was so strange, and there was a special pressure that made her feel heavy.

"You say. ”

Rosie pursed her lips and tilted her head slightly, "Do you believe that there really is a god in this world?"

Tina nodded, "Yes, I'm convinced. ”

Her tone was a little excited, and Rosie hurriedly raised her hand to reassure: "Don't be nervous, Teacher Tina, this is just a casual chat." After a pause, "Have you ever seen a god?"

She hesitated for a moment before shaking her head and saying, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes, to be exact, but I can feel it." And you've seen the literature inside the church that God did exist. ”

"Then what do you think made the gods leave us? Leaving us alone under this sky, no longer caring for us, and even depriving us of the ability to cultivate the Holy Power? I have read some records and conjectures, maybe in less than two hundred years, there will be no one in this world who can cultivate the Holy Power anymore. ”

Tina was silent for a moment, "Maybe we've grieved God. ”

Rosie smiled, "God is all-knowing and all-powerful, and he has an all-encompassing mind, and he is high above and looks down on all things in the world. He is our Father and our Mother, so how can we break His heart?"

Tina stopped talking, in fact, the church did not understand why God left, and many people blamed Copernicus's theory and model for God's departure, thinking that Copernicus hurt God. This is nonsense, whether or not Copernicus exists, whether he published that article or not, and whether the original model in the federal collection still exists. The stars are there, and they will not change because of what Copernicus did, whether God is there or not.

In fact, in the final analysis, this is the function of the laws of the universe. The universe is like a living thing, and in the initial stage of its growth, it needs to have a top-down will to serve as nourishment and protection for it to thrive and grow. When it grows to a certain extent, it does not need this primitive nourishment and protection, so the laws of the universe change, and it becomes the most suitable element for the growth of the universe at the current stage. What was once has been discarded and become old.

The ones who can really catch up with the changes of the times are actually the guys from the Truth Society.

In the past, they were magicians, in the present, they are scientists. They are the ones who truly understand the world and truly touch the edge of the mysteries of the universe.

As for the church?

To put it bluntly, it is a loser who is immersed in the past and cannot extricate himself.

Rossi's question Tina can't answer, the whole church can't answer it, maybe someone understands it very well, but they will pretend to be confused. Because once they say it, it means that they have negated all the efforts of the past, and even though they know that they are in the wrong direction, they can only go on with their heads.

"Times are changing, and the church needs to change," Rossi said. ”

Tina's eyes suddenly widened and looked at Rosie, as if she had noticed the difference between this guy for the first time, and he was no longer the same person as the guy in her memory.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm telling the truth. ”

After a moment, Rossi changed the subject, "I heard that the church has found a holy woman?"

Tina hesitated, but nodded, "Galle, but no one knows where she is, the cardinals and ascetics hid her. ”

Rosie was curious: "It used to take at least twenty years to coronate a saint, but now how long does it take for her to be crowned a saint?"

There is a coronation ceremony for the Holy Maiden, and when this ceremony takes place, the name of the Holy Maiden is preceded by the honorific title of "Saint", such as St. Galle.

"I don't know ....... ”

Rosie smiled and sighed, took out a napkin and wiped his mouth, "You eat slowly, I'll go first." ”

Looking at Rosie's back, Tina felt for the first time that he was so strange.
