Chapter Ninety-Five: Only the Bright Moon Accompanies You
In order to prevent the later empire from oppressing and enslaving the common class as in the church era, the Emperor Xiaotian had issued many policies/policies to restrict the growth of the aristocratic class.
But no matter what kind of social system there will be the emergence of the aristocratic class, this is a situation that no matter how wise and great rulers can not avoid, human society is like this, there are rich and poor, there is power and equality, even the gods of the divine realm are hierarchical, not to mention the red dust mortal world? The ideal paradise can only be an ideal.
As long as the imperial family sits in the Tower of Eternity, there is no need to worry about others attacking, no matter how powerful the world is or the peerless powerhouse can only stop and sigh in front of the Tower of Eternity, but ruling a huge empire cannot be completed by only one tower, no matter how tall it is, it is only a tower that cannot be moved.
With a history of more than 1,400 years, there has not been an incompetent mediocre emperor in the Tower of Eternity, but perhaps the Emperor of the Howling Sky really has a spirit in the sky, these faint monarchs are not continuous, whenever the empire is in decline, there will always be great and amazing people born in the Tower of Eternity, so that the glory of the rose flower blooms again on the earth, for example, the emperor of the previous generation is a useless mediocre king, but he gave birth to an incomparably wise, great and wise leaning on the railing.
In the history of the empire, all the wise monarchs like His Majesty Leaning on the Rails have not forgotten the original intention of the Emperor Xiaotian to establish the empire, and they know very well the truth that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and it is impossible for this world to be completely free of the elite class, and those who lose the hearts of the people lose the world, and the aristocracy is not in chaos? The best way is to enhance the rights of the common people on the basis of ensuring the interests of the nobles.
After the efforts of several generations of Ming monarchs like His Majesty, the current empire has basically achieved the equality of human rights, and there will be no situation where the nobles can kill and take away the commoners at will as they did in the ancient church era, and the so-called nobles and high society are just richer and more powerful than them in the eyes of the commoners.
Nowadays, the commoners of the empire do not have too many complaints about their lives, as long as they work hard, they will not worry about food, clothing, and housing, even if they do not go to the consul exam, they will have the opportunity to live in the northern part of the eternal city, which symbolizes the residence of the richest people in the empire.
As the northern city where the imperial magnates lived, its architectural style is typical of the northern modernist style of the empire, which evolved from the ancient Gothic architectural style, removing the decadent feeling of the ancient Gothic dark walls and the religious sense of the carved god reliefs on the exterior walls, retaining the uniqueness of the towering spires, round windows or semicircular windows, and the reliefs on the exterior walls evolved into floral reliefs with imperial characteristics.
Most of the villas in the whole northern city are the steeple and white-walled villas, most of which were the residences of some wealthy merchants and imperial officials, and between these villas, the magnificent castles are the mansions of the major families.
Among the aristocratic class of the empire, there are five families that can really be called big families, namely the Hoffman family, the Rannster family, the Fanzhuo family, the Yu family and the Shantai family.
These five families have an extremely long history, the Tai family and the Yu family are the families that have been inherited since the founding era, but the long inheritance time does not mean that it is strong or not, there were seven families in the founding era that were far stronger than the Tai family and the Yu family, but in the long river of history, it still fell into the pen that was only sighed and sighed by the history writers.
After the Leaning Column His Majesty ascended the throne, the five great families also restrained their breath in front of this wise and great emperor, the current five major families are very low-key, and even some young imperial people don't know the name of the Fifth Family of Ludao, under the means of Leaning on the Column, the five major families have weighed and restricted, and there is a relatively balanced situation, and there is not much disparity in strength, but if you really want to rank out, Di Xue's friend, the Shantai family where the Lantai Mingjing is located is definitely one of the best.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that the current head of the Tantai family, General Tantaiyu, holds an important position in the military department and holds military power, is a capital that other families do not have, and General Tantaiyu can have the title of general, not only by virtue of his military achievements in the real bloody battles on the border battlefield in the early years, but also that he himself is indeed a god with the talent of a general, and it is useless for other families to secretly envy, jealousy and hate......
The Tantai family is also a military family, and most of the children of the past generations will join the army, and they have always had a deep relationship with the imperial military, which can be seen from the relief on the exterior wall of their family castle.
Although almost all the buildings in Beicheng District are steeped and white, the color of Beicheng District is not a single white, each villa will be equipped with a garden, and most of the owners who live in it will ask florists to plant flowers and plants in it, plus the green belt planted by the imperial government on the left and right of the street, which is decorated with different purple and red colors in all seasons.
The entire city of Eternal City has magical lighting facilities, magic street lamps are all over the streets and alleys, and the magical energy of these public facilities is provided by the Tower of Eternity, without any financial consumption at all.
When night falls, the magic street lights of the whole city are lit up at the same time, and the scenery of the four major cities is different from the daytime.
The glow of the yellowish street lamps mingled with the light from the villas, and the occasional coachman in a top hat drove by in a retro-style open-top carriage, the horse's hooves kicked through the fallen leaves of late autumn and early winter, and the creaking and clattering hooves of the wheels carried the chill of the night in the chaotic light and mist. The night in Beicheng District is far less lively and bustling than other urban areas, it is very quiet, but it is not dead and silent, and it has a sense of isolation and quietness.
In the eastern part of Beicheng District, there is a large empty square, and the villas with gardens seem to have been deliberately bypassed this area to make it vacated, and the magnificent ancient castle of the Shantai family stands in the middle.
The relief on its outer wall is not the common flower relief on other buildings in Beicheng District, but the war scene of iron-blooded killing, and the craftsman of the devil's axe will express the temperament of the golden iron horse to the fullest, so that the ancient castle that is completely located on the bluestone slab and in the center of the empty square feels a solemn momentum when people look at it at a glance.
This ancient castle of slaughter will be attracted to all sight when people look at it from afar, but at this time, in this soft night, if you get closer to the ancient castle, under the cold light in front of the main gate of the ancient castle, there is a person, more eye-catching than those fine and atmospheric battlefield reliefs.
Dressed in a simple and slim black dress, her back leaned against a stone wall as smooth as white jade, her hands were folded in front of her chest, one leg was bent and her foot was on the stone wall, and the whole person was supported by the other slender leg and back, looking extremely chic and lazy.
The long black hair is not tied up, naturally scattered on the chest, with the somewhat thin body and delicate facial features, people may think that she is a beautiful woman when they first see it.
He leaned in front of the high gate of the castle so chic and lazy, one leg was tired of standing and the other leg bent and stepped on the stone wall, and when the guests arrived, he only nodded lightly, and seemed to be stingy or disdainful even with a smile, and those guests seemed to be used to him doing this, and did not think he was rude, and after greeting him, they entered the castle.
The breeze swept through the long hair on his chest, and from time to time a few strands of hair fluttered on his face that made even women jealous, and the slightly squinted dark eyes seemed to be the deepest night that the brightest light could not illuminate.
Because of the angle of light, his slightly lowered face is half bright and half dark, which highlights his own lonely temperament, which is a lonely and lonely that no matter how chic and lazy his posture and no matter how prosperous and noisy the environment can not be driven away, he is obviously a person who has won everyone's attention and is amazing and admirable, but as long as he doesn't say or do anything, people seem to consciously unwilling or unbearable to disturb him.
The clouds are like smoke, covering the moon, the high sky and night wind are always gone, suddenly the clouds disperse and the cold moon sees, lonely and lonely in the sea of stars, he leisurely looks up at the cold moonlight, as if only the lonely moon can accompany him.
When Di Xue's carriage stopped in front of the ancient castle of the Tantai family, and when he stepped out of the carriage, he couldn't help but sigh softly when he saw the independent moon and the brilliant lights and the laughter and noise of the crowd faintly coming from inside the door.
Every time he saw the Tangtai Mirror, he always wanted to sigh for no reason, at this time, after he came back from a trip to Xiyue Province, he saw the Tangtai Mirror for the first time, and the Tangtai Mirror seemed to overlap with a hazy and blurred figure in his mind, and Di Xue himself didn't know where this feeling came from, why it started, but it seemed to have a ...... A touch of sadness?
Seeing Di Xue coming, Tantai Mingjing got up and walked towards Di Xue, Di Xue silently took a deep breath to get rid of the inexplicable sudden feeling, and said to Tantai Mingjing: "Personally greet guests outside?"
When getting along with Di Xue, a close friend, the lonely temperament on the mirror seemed to be a little less, and the mirror pursed his lips and said: "What's the matter, it's just that you are almost up to the time, so I came out to pick you up." ”
Di Xue said, "You are an unpredictable prophet. ”
"I don't know you yet, you're never late." ”
Indeed, Di Xue is a punctual person, and he usually doesn't play big names to go to banquets and deliberately be late, and Mingjing, who has known him for a long time, naturally knows this, so he came out to wait for him.
After a few more words with the Spiegel, Di Xue followed him into the castle of the Tsai family.
Outside the square where the Tangtai Family Castle is located, facing the second-floor window of a small villa at the main entrance of the Tangtai Family Castle, Pan Yun put down a cylindrical object in his hand from his eyes, which is a magic telescopic instrument, with the help of which he can clearly see the details of things far away even at night.
This place is far away from the main gate of the ancient castle of the Tantai family, and Pan Yun naturally can't hear what Di Xue and Tantai Mingjing are saying before, but he can read lips.
Thinking back to the few words that Di Xue had exchanged with the mirror of Tantai before, Lord Pan Yun fell into deep thought.
