Sinan Pei broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this. This is what this world Shinji Nanpei has experienced, what does it have to do with him, a fake earl? He had to pretend to be heartbroken: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, this matter...... I don't really want to remember it anymore. ”

Theresa grabbed his hand and clenched it very tightly, which made Sinampei feel a warmth in his heart.

She must have thought that she was very sad now, right? Unfortunately, her own experience was all fake. He is not a Seris of this world, but a Celestial Empire of another world.

"I'm sorry, kid, but I mentioned your sadness. The Pope comforted Sinampei, "Let's talk about the Selman Empire again." As far as I know, they have gone through a total of eight generations of Ming monarchs from the founding of the country to the present, and I don't see them one day having a mediocre monarch. What do you think is going on?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. Si Nanpei nodded, "For this, I think I can give a reasonably reasonable explanation." The main ethnic group of the Selman Empire, the Tukh people, still retains the genes of the nomadic people until now, and until now, they have not produced a clear rule of succession to the throne like the Litian world, and every time a sultan dies, his sons have to experience a bloody battle. ”

"I know this, you're right, go on. The Pope nodded yes.

"This serves as a selection of heirs in a certain process. "Just like nature, natural selection and survival of the fittest." ”

"Oh, what does that mean?" the Pope looked at Sinampe with a smile.

Sinan Pei considered his words, of course, this sentence came from Yan Fu's compilation of Darwin's theory of evolution, but Sinan Pei knew. On Earth, when the theory of evolution first appeared, it was violently attacked by the church, so he decided to put it mildly.

"It's very simple, Your Majesty. Sinan Pei said, "In nature." Only the strong can survive, and the weak can only die helplessly. This is true for both herbivores and carnivores. Herbivores that can't run fast will be eaten by predators, while carnivores that run slower may starve to death because they can't catch their prey. In the same way, only the strong can gain the power to mate and give birth to more robust offspring. And so on. One generation begins with survival more than the next. ”

"You don't seem to be hiding something. The Pope looked at Sinampe with a smile, "For example, everything in this world created by God is not static, but changes over time?"

Sinan Pei didn't expect the Pope to take the initiative to talk about this, so he could only bite the bullet and say, "I think so, Your Majesty." But I don't deny the greatness of the Creator, and even more so than people think. Only the power of the Creator can create such a dynamic and ever-changing world. People make it. In any case, it is a dead thing, but what God created is a living thing, something that changes and thinks on its own. ”

"That's a good point. The Pope laughed, "Son, compared to some old pedants. You are really good at talking, and you not only have more knowledge than they do, but you also have a much smarter brain than they do. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment. If it were in the Celestial Empire, Sinampei would only be able to say, "You are falsely praised", but in Eugenia. has to admit it generously, this cultural difference also made Sinampei suffer at the beginning, but now he is basically adapted.

Sinampei then continued the topic about the Selman Empire just now: "In the early days of the Selman Empire, strong enemies were around, and this method could effectively select a wise heir to make the Selman Empire stronger step by step, but when his territory expanded to an amazing point, it would become a fatal flaw. ”

"Where there are people, there will be strife, and where there will be strife, there will be factions, and this may not be so obvious when Selman is a small country, but when he becomes a big country, then there will be countless factions within the country because of different interests, such as liberals who support the selection of pagan talents, conservatives who oppose this, mercantilists who support trade with the Recheon world, and militarists who oppose this...... This is only a matter of considering the interests of the country, and it is even more confusing if it involves personal interests. Sinampei smiled slightly, "As far as I know, the Hajd cultists do not want to practice strict monogamy like the Litian cultists, but one person can marry many wives, so that behind every sultan's heir, there will be ......"

"There is a family representing different interests, and we want him to take the position of Sultan, right?" asked the old man Clemman, who had not spoken for a long time.

"That's right. And this may even turn into a civil war. "Sinampei is too familiar with these, on earth, not only Ottoman Turkey, but also the Celestial Empire? Although the Son of Heaven can choose the heir according to his own wishes, he will face opposition from the government and the opposition.

Even the Celestial Empire, which has rules and regulations, is like this, so the Selman Empire has to be in chaos like this?

"When I refer to the history of the Selman Empire, I find that no wise king has been able to solve this problem, such as the current Selman Sultan, when he came to the throne, didn't he kill all his brothers, even if he was still in his infancy. It was only because he was quick enough to kill all the brothers who had the ability to compete with him for the position that he did not cause even greater trouble. But sooner or later, there will be problems with such a system. Sinampei deliberately laughed heroically, once to show his confidence and the accuracy of his judgment, "If one day, a guy does not kill his brother, but allows him to find reinforcements, and the two of them fight on their own side, then will the glory of the Selman Empire continue?"

"Brilliant argument. The Pope and Old Man Clemand looked at each other and nodded, "It seems that both me and Clemand used to underestimate you. You have the insight and abilities to match your knowledge. ”

"......" Sinan Pei almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood. What did you think before? (To be continued......
