Chapter 335: The Vigorous Young Man (Two in One, Ask for Subscription!! )
Asis took two gems and stepped on land, one of which was the Siren's Tear that had fallen into his hands, and the other, Ma Wei had been secretly looking for, and now he knew where it was, and even had it at his fingertips, but
Ma Wei feels that he is not a person with a fluke mentality, and he always has to ask why when he encounters a pie-in-the-sky good thing.
Why did Freya give him such a precious gem?
Because of love?
Stop it.
The possibility that Asmodeus, the great demon in charge of lust, is a love brain, is too low.
While you can't rule out this possibility, you can't magnify the possibility of a small probability event and think it's inevitable.
"I still firmly believe in my own judgment and don't accept the devil's gift lightly."
Seeing that Ma Wei had made up his mind, Baji shook his head and didn't persuade him much.
The other side.
Rhodes IV had already ordered his servants to pack their belongings, and this time he went to Frederick's kingdom, he did not make a big fanfare, knowing that his time was short, he valued speed more than enjoyment.
The day after Mavi's visit to Freya, Rhodes IV and the Archbishop of Liviu set out by boat, faster than anyone expected.
On the dockside, the four princes looked at the distant steamer, with different expressions, the second prince kept exchanging glances with the eldest prince, and only breathed a sigh of relief after receiving a positive answer, the third prince stood in place with a tense face, like a wooden man, Arthur was expressionless, and was the first to board the carriage and leave.
The commander of the Royal Navy fleet, who was in charge of escorting Rhodes IV, was a man from Toure and an acquaintance of Mavi, and Mavi could receive news of anything he encountered on the way, but with his current position in the church, he also had the right to know the news sent back by the Archbishop of Liviu.
With the king gone, the Kingdom of Windsor was not greatly affected, and most of the government affairs were handled by the cabinet, but now the power was more centralized.
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, please stay."
The second prince, who saw off Rhodes IV and was about to board the carriage and leave, heard a sound behind him, stopped, turned around, and said in surprise: "Archbishop of Canbury? Are you looking for me? ”
"Your Highness, let's take a walk."
At the invitation of the Archbishop of Cambury, the second prince could only take a walk by the dock, looking back at Ma Wei and Archbishop Brandon not far away as he walked, but surprisingly, Archbishop Brandon did not seem to want to interfere.
Seeing this, Ma Wei had a rough idea in his heart.
Archbishop Brandon and Archbishop Cumbury are internal hostile, if it is a personal problem, Archbishop Brandon certainly supports the second prince without hesitation, and now he chooses to stand by and watch, which shows that the problem is very big.
And in the recent events in London, the church can come forward in person.
It seems that there is only a strike.
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, in terms of secular affairs, the kingdom is God's agent, and the church should not interfere in the affairs of the kingdom originally, but if it encounters a difficult situation, it still has to intervene."
Hearing this opening sentence, the second prince chuckled in his heart, and immediately understood what Archbishop Cambury meant.
"Recently, there have been two general strikes in London in a short period of time, the first was perfectly resolved under the auspices of Parliament, but it was not long before the second general strike began with a bang"
The Archbishop of Cambury said slowly: "The second general strike has been going on for a whole week, and there is no sign of easing so far. The Church believes that the general strike represents the meaning of the workers, who in turn are loyal believers in the goddess, and the goddess of course protects them. Are you right? ”
"Right"
The Archbishop of Cambury nodded with satisfaction: "Since you agree with my logic, it will be much easier next, according to the agreement reached between the church and the kingdom, the Holy See will not easily interfere in the affairs of the kingdom, except in special circumstances, and the general strike is one of the special circumstances." ”
"I see what you mean."
Taking a deep breath, the second prince gritted his teeth and said, "I will resolve the strike as soon as possible and not cause trouble to the church." ”
"It's so easy to talk to you." Archbishop Cambury smiled slightly: "It's not early, let's go back." ”
"Okay."
The second prince who came back was like a chicken in the water, listless, Archbishop Brandon patted Mavi on the shoulder and sighed: "Nicholas, I can't do anything about the Holy See's decision, you can help me talk to His Highness." ”
Nodding slightly, Ma Wei hugged Yunia to stop the second prince's coachman, got into the carriage, and as soon as he saw Ma Wei, the second prince immediately said: "Just now, the Archbishop of Camberley asked me to settle the strike as soon as possible, which is knocking me and implying that I agree to the workers' demands. ”
"I understand."
"But don't you think that's unreasonable?" The second prince was a little angry, pointed out the window and said, "Those workers! Once they get a taste of the sweetness, they will ask for it endlessly! Man's greed knows no bounds! One step back today, two steps back tomorrow, when is it a head? ”
"I can understand that the church supports believers, but it also needs to be a degree, isn't it? What's the difference between this and spoiling! ”
“.”
After a short silence, Ma Wei spoke: "Fighting for rights as much as possible is what everyone wants to do, and the church should be tolerant rather than conniving with believers. ”
The golden gods are too doting on their believers that they have lost everything.
With the lessons of the past, the Odin god system will discipline believers with severity and make human beings fearful.
It is true that the Odin god system did not follow in the footsteps of the golden gods, but their strict control also aroused the resistance of many human beings, and the gods of the apocalypse overthrew the Odin god system under the banner of liberation.
"That's right!" The second prince said excitedly: "The church is too indulgent to that group of workers!" I will definitely reap the consequences in the future! ”
"But the demands of the workers are not greedy." "I think that's one of the reasons why the church came forward, because the emergence of women's unions has obviously inspired a lot of people's ideological awareness, and their success has also opened the door to a new world for many people," Ma Wei said. ”
"So there's no hope?"
The second prince lowered his head and said in frustration: "Is it really going to make Arthur rise?" ”
"Your Highness, are you afraid of the rising fourth prince, or the supporters who are disappointed in you because of this?"
"Supporters, of course!" The second prince said without hesitation: "I don't want to see Arthur's rise is a fact, but even if he rises, I don't care very much, the key is that he wants to step on me to rise!" Who can stand this! ”
From beginning to end, the second prince didn't dislike or like Arthur, everyone was separated since childhood, and they were still half-siblings, and they had no emotional foundation at all.
Arthur took a seat in the council with his own efforts, and the second prince didn't care.
But Arthur stepped on the Liberal Party to take power.
What would the supporters of the second prince have to be if they knew that the second prince had compromised with Arthur and that their interests would have been harmed?
In less than a month, Rhodes IV will fall on the sickbed, and will the parliamentarians who originally supported the second prince have a different heart?
"The church has come forward, Your Highness, you must compromise, or you will definitely be punished."
The Archbishop of Cambury interviewed the second prince and had a private conversation, which already gave the second prince a lot of face, and the second prince could only catch it.
"I'm afraid that the supporters will run to Charles's camp." The second prince said quietly: "If this is the case, I will have no hope at all. ”
"It's okay, Your Highness, we can transfer the conflict."
"Divert contradictions?"
"Yes." Ma Wei smiled and said, "Since the decline here is unstoppable, it is better to change the track to ensure that your supporters will not defect to the eldest prince." ”
"Is there any good idea?"
"My third brother, Jonas, do you remember?"
"Of course, didn't he go to Eton College?"
"Eton College is an aristocratic school, and the students are all the children of the upper class, whether it is the Conservative Party or the Liberal Party, there are many people who send their children to study, and the children who play together in the school are also divided into factions, the children of the Liberal Party play with the children of the Liberal Party, and the children of the Conservative Party play with the children of the Conservative Party, if Jonas takes the children of the Liberal Party to attack the children of the Conservative Party."
The second prince opened his mouth wide, his eyes were surprised and delighted: "Stir up contradictions!" Let the Liberals and the Conservatives turn against each other! ”
"That's right, because of the emergence of Labour, the rivalry between the Conservatives and the Liberals is showing signs of subsidence, so it would be nice to add fuel to the fire."
"Good!"
The second prince slapped his thigh and agreed to Ma Wei's proposal on the spot.
He thought it was a great idea!
Now is not the time to pay attention to 'martial virtues', big things are imminent, who can take care of these?
Surely at all costs!
That night, Mavi had Levine send a message to Daniel, telling him what had happened in London.
"It's finally here."
In the luxurious single dormitory, Daniel rubbed his hands and looked eager to try.
In the six months that he has been at Eton College, he is almost growing hair, and he has already learned the knowledge taught in Berlin, at most he knows more about the education model of the Windsor Kingdom, and has been waiting for news from Ma Wei
Now, here's the opportunity.
"Big brother means to let you provoke conflicts, but you also have to pay attention to safety and don't let people beat you."
Daniel was instantly unhappy: "You say this is the biggest insult to me, I am also the first crown prince who has practiced palace swordsmanship since I was a child, dealing with this group of rich children, not to mention that it is no problem to fight ten with one enemy and hundred, right?" I'm older than them, too! ”
According to his actual age, Daniel is indeed two or three years older than the students around him, and his physique is more robust, coupled with the fact that Frederick's kingdom has always pursued militarism, Daniel has been conservative since he was a child, and he is not ambiguous at all when he fights.
When he was Levin's sparring partner, he beat Levine well, if it weren't for Levine's use of street tricks such as flirting, eye insertion, and guerrilla, he would really not be Daniel's opponent!
But in the same way, Daniel also learned a lot of street fighting habits in sparring.
Tolevin's blessing, Daniel also completely put down the shelf of the first crown prince.
The next day, Friday.
The sun was shining on campus, and during lunch break, Daniel and a few students sat on the rocks outside the school building, squinting at the students coming and going.
"Jonas, what are we doing here?" Anton, who is the main shareholder of Thames Bank at home, fanned the wind with his hands, and from time to time glanced up at the sun in the sky, and his heart was flustered.
At this time, they should sit in the cool cafeteria and eat, and run to sit in the sun in the summer
Isn't there nothing to find guilt for?
"I'll be gone in a moment."
Daniel took out a stack of vouchers from his pocket and handed them out to several people behind him, as a way to delay time: "This is earned by selling sleeping toast, Anton, you 15, Palmer, you 9, Red"
At this moment, a group of male students who looked older than Jonas and others walked out of the teaching building, talking and laughing towards the cafeteria.
"I don't have long eyes!"
Several companions screamed instantly, and no one helped the boss who fell, only caring about the schoolgirl.
The boss got up with his buttocks covered, and while baring his teeth, he suddenly noticed that the schoolgirl was a little familiar, as if it was Sarah, the adopted daughter of General Toure.
"Oops, stop screaming, I'm fine"
"Hey! Xibei! Why are you bullying schoolgirls here? ”
There was a loud shout behind him, which attracted everyone's attention, and when he turned around, he found that it was Daniel and his party.
Daniel stepped forward to help Sara up, glanced at Xibei, who looked confused, and said coldly: "You don't apologize for hitting someone?" ”
"I apologize? I apologize? ”
Xibei was full of question marks: "It's obvious that she hit me!" I'm going to apologize to her? If you apologize, apologize. ”
In view of the fact that Sara was born in the noble and famous Crowley family, Xibei, who was born in the Earl's family, decided to apologize, gentleman, and apologize to the lady elegantly without shame!
Xibei, who thought that this was the end of the matter, didn't expect Daniel to hit the snake with a stick: "So simply apologize, Xibei, when did you become a soft bone?" Oh! You like Sarah, don't you? ”
"Jonas! I've put up with you long enough! Don't go too far! ”
"I'm not just going to go too far, I'm going to beat you up!"
After speaking, Daniel flew up with a kick, from the bottom up, right under Xibei's crotch, Xibei lay on the ground on the spot, cold sweat, and his face was blue.
As soon as several of the surrounding companions saw that the boss was being beaten, they immediately rushed up with their fists and scuffled with Daniel, and Sarah, the initiator of all this, had long since disappeared.
9 Downing Street.
Cabinet Prime Minister Winston Churchill looked at the two princes in front of him who had finally reached an agreement, and nodded with satisfaction: "Since an agreement has been reached, it must be implemented immediately, Your Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, you can't mess around with strikes in the near future, if there is anything, let's discuss it." ”
"Your Excellency the Prime Minister said so." Arthur was humble.
"There is also His Royal Highness the Second Prince, we must implement the welfare conditions as soon as possible."
"Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister."
Suddenly, a waiter hurriedly walked in and said with a nervous expression: "Prime Minister, just now there is news from Eton College, saying that the children of the Manstein family and the children of the Earl of Austin have been fighting."
"Oh?"
Winston frowned, and quickly stretched: "It's normal for children to fight, who hasn't fought when they were young?" There's nothing wrong with being a little more youthful."
"Coco, your son Robertson was also beaten."
"Huh?!"
