Chapter 591: Justice and Evil
readx;
When Han Jin slowly walked to the end of the corridor, more than a dozen knights immediately straightened up and made a standard and neat knightly salute, and then the team leader pushed open the door of the conference room respectfully, Han Jin smiled and strode in. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
At this moment, Thorn Tiannan had already made a decision, and quickly chased in the direction of Han Jin, and all the patriarchs also swarmed up, but it was impossible for the knights at the gate to let these inexplicable people break in, they stopped in the middle, and they had firmly blocked the way.
"My lord......" Thorne Tiannan waved his arm, trying to call back Han Jin, and happened to see through the crack in the door that the conference room was full of people, Guevara, Gobin, Chief Gail, Jaydis and others were all seated, and they also saw seven or eight tall Titan giants, and the female Titan Domini, who was sitting on the side, obviously, those Titan giants were all heavyweight representatives of the Titan family.
Thorne Tiannan's arm stiffened in the air, and he continued to shout, disturbing the atmosphere of the meeting, that was a bit rude, don't shout, they stayed outside, in case Han Jin misunderstood that they really wanted to leave, the result would be even more troublesome.
At this moment, Han Jin's voice suddenly sounded in the ears of the knight squad leader: "Let them in." ā
The squad leader was startled and hurriedly glanced at his companions, and a dozen knights quickly split to the sides to make way for them.
And Han Jin, who had already walked into the conference room, was given a cold reception, and Guevara, Jaydis and others pretended not to see Han Jin when they saw him come in, and they were expressing their protests in this way.
However, Chesem, the owner of Cold Cinema City, felt a little uneasy, and stood up first, and said with a smile: "Lord Raphael, it's been a long time. ā
"It's an honor for you to be here. Han Jin replied with a smile: "Please take a seat, you're welcome." ā
Grand Duke Solomon, who was talking, stopped talking, and the two smiled at each other, everything was silent.
And the generals of the younger generation, including Lang Ning, Winston, etc., did not dare to learn from the old characters, and after being stunned for a while, they stood up one after another, as for Celeste, who was slaughtered, they even wanted to rush to Han Jin's side immediately and tell their grievances, but fortunately, Qi Fanke sat beside him and grabbed him.
Today's protagonist is not Celeste, and the theme is not the business of Elysium, so you must not mess around.
At this time, Soon Tiannan walked into the conference room with all the patriarchs, Soen Tiannan has a very powerful ability, if necessary, he can immediately become a self-cooked, although there are many people here he doesn't know, and although he is very nervous in his heart, he can still greet everyone with a smile, looking very bold and generous.
Han Jin glanced around, then found a corner and sat down gently, and Han Jin's actions made the huge conference room instantly silent, and even Mo Xinke showed a surprised look, scratching his head while looking at Han Jin with puzzled eyes.
Jaydis looked sideways at Guevara, he was silently questioning the other party, didn't you say that Raphael would not have made such a foolish decision?
Guevara glanced at Jaydis out of the corner of his eye, and he meant to say, don't be impatient.
Chesem felt incomprehensible, and he looked at Han Jin for a while, and then at Solomon, his eyes full of surprise.
This doesn't require any ability to see subtleties, Han Jin's movements are too obvious, at this moment, Han Jin voluntarily retreats, he is not the protagonist, so who is the protagonist?!
Solomon's eyes flickered with a twinkle as usual, as if he didn't realize the subtlety of his position, nor did he see the complicated lines of sight.
"Now that Raphael is here, I won't talk nonsense. Solomon coughed lightly and said slowly, because Han Jin had not yet married Yalina, and because some of his eyes had already revealed obvious hostility, so Solomon specially used the honorific title: "I can sit here today, all of them are my own people, I think...... We all know as well as I do why we're here. ā
No one responded, and it seemed a little cold, but Solomon didn't care in the slightest, and continued: "First, we will witness the rise of a vibrant, great empire, and secondly, and more importantly, we will dictate the future direction of this great empire, as well as ...... All the connotations of the Great Empire, these need to be decided by all of us!"
"Speaking of which, there's a question I have to ask. Solomon paused and said slowly, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you know what a country is?" or...... What is the meaning of the state?"
Everyone in the audience looked at each other, the country is just an image concept, they all understand, but if they want to say it specifically, they don't know where to start.
"A long, long time ago, the lives of various races came out of the forest and the wilderness, gathered together to form villages, towns, and finally condensed into a nation, what was their purpose? Quite simply, they hoped to use the power of the collective to ensure the protection of everyone's life and the inviolability of everyone's interests!" Solomon took a breath and said word by word: "This ...... is the most fundamental meaning of the country!"
The people looked at each other, and they did not understand why Solomon was talking about this.
"However, for countless years, the state has long since deviated from its original purpose, and has become a tool for one person, or a few people, or a group of people, to force the majority of people to selflessly dedicate and obey unconditionally from generation to generation!" Solomon's gaze suddenly became extremely sharp, and swept over people's faces like steel needles: "If those intelligent beings who first came out of the wilderness heard the painful cries of their descendants, they would definitely disperse, and they would rather let the long river of history flow backwards than see a large, A national beast that can crush everything that fights has appeared!"
"In my eyes, the history of the mainland is a history that has been completely distorted, and of course, I know that there will be many people who disagree with me, and I know why. Solomon smiled and said, "For all of you are enjoying and squandering the offerings of the people...... The strong, because the existence of the country, is the guarantee of your noble life. ā
Solomon's words undoubtedly stabbed a hornet's nest, and there was an uproar below, and Solomon scolded himself and everyone present, including Han Jin.
"Quiet. Han Jin said lightly.
The uproar stopped abruptly, if Han Jin would be angry at Solomon's inappropriate remarks, it would be one thing for them to express their opposition, and if Han Jin had already spoken to Solomon and agreed with Solomon's opinion, then their opposition was another matter.
"It seems that your opinions are very large, so I will not talk about these empty things. Solomon was silent for a moment, and then said, "Let me give you an interesting example, if Lord Raphael meets an old man one day, and the old man likes Lord Raphael very much and is willing to hand over all the wealth he has to Lord Raphael to inherit, then after Lord Raphael gets this wealth, he is obliged to give proper care to the old man when he is lonely and sick. For at the time he accepted the wealth, a kind of pact had been made between them. ā
The people below talked for a moment, and Solomon's words were normal.
"But Master Raphael ran out into the square and shouted to the passers-by, 'I have just received a fortune, come here, and I will give it to you in its entirety. Solomon looked around, "What kind of man is this?"
"Isn't that a fool?" Thorne Tiannan couldn't help laughing: "It's obviously his money, why should he share it with others?"
No one answered, only Thorne Tiannan was laughing, so his laughter seemed very abrupt, don't talk about others, even he himself felt bad, hurriedly closed his mouth, and lowered his head in panic.
"Yes!" replied Solomon, "This is ...... The Great Leader of the Tribal Alliance, Lord Thorne Tiannan, is he's so right, if there is such a person in reality, then he must be a fool!"
Thorn Tiannan never imagined that the other party would agree with him, he couldn't help but glance at Han Jin from the corner of his eye, obviously he was using Han Jin as an example, he said that person was a fool, and he inevitably had the taste of pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.
Han Jin noticed Thorn Tiannan's gaze, turned his neck sideways, and smiled slightly at Thorn Tiannan.
Thorn Tiannan immediately lowered his head as if he was reflexive, and then a strange feeling floated in his heart, because Han Jin's smile was very clear and soft, and it didn't seem to be as hideous and terrifying as he imagined, he couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Han Jin again, but Han Jin had already turned away.
"Why don't you give the wealth to someone else, because the contract is only between Raphael and the old man, and no one else is in a position to ask Raphael to divide the wealth. Solomon said slowly: "When you are thirsty, someone pours you a glass of water, and you should also help him when he is in trouble." In fact, this kind of contract is ubiquitous in reality, parents and children, husbands and wives, comrades-in-arms, partners, etc., will find similar contracts between them, which is a kind of invisible potential rule of society. Obeying the rules will at least prove that you are a trustworthy person, and you will not want to follow the rules, if Raphael is in the old man's ...... Kicking the other person out of the door mercilessly, of course, can get some convenience, but he can never deny the dirtiness in his heart!"
Some people want to laugh, but they don't dare to really laugh, and some people feel shocked, this Grand Duke Solomon is too bold, and even uses Han Jin as an example?!
"Whether you can abide by the rules or not, in fact, is you, me, him, everyone present, the nobles on the continent and countless civilians, the yardstick that divides justice and evil. Solomon said slowly, "This also means that everyone has his own righteousness in his heart, and when your righteousness conflicts violently with his righteousness, what will determine your right and wrong?
The people in the field became silent, the strong are respected, this is a unique law in the troubled times, everyone has their own feelings in their hearts, especially Thorn Tiannan, he came here, isn't it because his justice is not as strong as Han Jin's justice?!
"yes...... Strength. There was some vicissitudes and some pain in Solomon's voice: "But ...... This is not right, just as the state, a monster with great power, has long since deviated from its original purpose and made the mistake of the fundamental surname. ā
"So...... Let me give you another example. Solomon said slowly, "Moshinko, if Lord Raphael appoints you as the lord of the Holy Crown City today, what will you do in the future?"
"Me?" said Moshinko, startled.
"Yes, that's you. Solomon said, "Tell me how you will realize your ideals and ambitions in the position of lord." ā
"I ......" Mo Xinke held back his face and blushed, let him gag, let him quarrel with Saseo and Lei Zhe, Solomon let him talk about his ideals and ambitions, it was too embarrassing, but being stared at by countless pairs of eyes, he always had to say something: "I...... I will do my best to ensure that all the people of the Holy Crown City live a peaceful and happy life. ā
"You're lying!" Solomon snapped.
"I didn't!!!" roared Moshinko.
"Then let me ask you, who made you the lord of the Holy Crown? Lord Raphael! Who agreed to make you the lord of the Holy Crown? Who did you make an invisible social contract with? It was Lord Raphael, it was us!" Solomon said coldly: "What you must do is to remain loyal to Lord Raphael and repay us friends!"
"I ...... I didn't say I wouldn't treat you as friends!"
"But what did you just say, trying to make all the people of Crown City live a peaceful and happy life??Joke, your social contract is here, and you don't even have a copper plate relationship with those civilians, why do you care about them?" Solomon said, "What is the difference between you and the fool who has just received a fortune and wants to give it to others?"
Where was Moshinko Solomon's opponent? He was so choked that he couldn't spit out a word.
"This is our justice!" Solomon said: "Where the benefits come from, the return will be fed back to where, whether you can be loyal to Lord Raphael, whether you can bring benefits to our friends, this is the most important factor in evaluating Moxinko, if he can do it, then Mosinko is a good friend, we can continue to trust him, or we can promote him to a more important position, if we disappoint, Mosinko is a bad guy, we will kick him down mercilessly." If Moshinko did something to oppress the good during his tenure as a lord, it would be harmless and completely forgivable. ā
"Perhaps, some people will say that it is the duty of every lord to make the people under his rule live well, but ...... I think you know as well as I do that what we are more willing to keep is an invisible contract!" Solomon said: "When one day there is a conflict between allegiance to Lord Raphael and the good life of others, what will we choose?
"In this way, the empire we have built that seems to be full of life is not substantially different from those of the dynasties of the past. Solomon smiled and said, "One day, the happy and noble word will be overturned in a catastrophe, hehe...... While we raise a glass to celebrate, it also sows the seeds of our future. ā
"Lord Solomon, are you cursing us?!" Lang Ning couldn't listen anymore and stood up angrily.
"No, I'm just warning you. Solomon shook his head slightly.
Guevara, Jadis, Zenglin, and Gobin all showed solemn expressions, and the shallow people, of course, would think that Solomon's words were too inauspicious and caused harm to the people present, but those who had reached a certain height, such as Guevara, could hear that this was Solomon's denunciation of the entire old civilization.
"Solomon, what do you say...... What should we do?" Guevara asked softly.
"I think we should create a self-healing mechanism that is good. Solomon paused: "The Free Federation has done a good job, and the establishment of the parliament represents that they have taken the first step." ā
The figures of Kemorazzi and Honduras both trembled, and Solomon pointed out them, although there was a meaning of praise, but who knows what attitude Han Jin had in his heart?
"It's a pity that their council representatives are elected by the major families, which is wrong again. Solomon said slowly: "I repeat again, where the benefits come from, the rewards will also be fed back. The parliamentary representatives of the Free Federation are desperately defending the rights and interests of their families, otherwise, they are evil people and will be abandoned by their families, who wants to become the embodiment of evil?!"
"Beating in our chests, is a heart full of **, don't deny it, I just walked into the conference room, I heard someone say a word, Jiangshan......! The state belongs to everyone, and the country belongs to only one person, or some people, what does it mean to replace the state with the country?" Solomon said softly.
"Lord Solomon, ...... you" Guevara smiled wryly and looked at Han Jin seriously, the subtext in Solomon's words was too sensational, even rebellious, if it wasn't for Han Jin's tacit approval, he knew that Solomon would never say this in public!
Except for Che Guevara, no one spoke, who could understand, felt as uncomfortable as a boulder in his heart, and those who didn't understand thought that Solomon seemed to be targeting Han Jin every word, where the benefits came from, and where the rewards would be fed back, wouldn't this be against Han Jin's appointment of lords everywhere? Could it be that it was chosen by the commoners themselves?? It's crazy...... It's crazy...... "The atmosphere seems to be a little heavy...... Solomon laughed: "You have misunderstood me, every change in old habits will cost people dearly, and I will not do it." The people Raphael likes, the people he trusts, can still be happy to be his own lord, everyone follows Raphael to this day, and is qualified to claim their own rights and interests, isn't it? What I really want to say is to add something else in addition to these, at least, so that our ** can be controlled, at least, so that those poor and vulnerable people, after being wronged, can find a reasonable and fair channel to vent their grievances. ā
"Alright, that's it. Han Jin suddenly interjected: "Lord Solomon has come from afar, and I am already very tired, and I have some things to talk about with Lord Solomon alone. ā
Although Han Jin hadn't shown his face for a long time, and although he was sitting in the corner at the moment, no one denied that Han Jin had the power of his word in the Holy Crown City, and people stood up one after another.
