Magic Tower Starry Sky

Chapter 1476: accelerated progress

If it's just unilateral goodwill from Dragon God, maybe it's not too surprising. After all, given the relationship between Long Island and the Empire as both an enemy and a friend, it is not a big news that the high-level officials of the two sides exchange gifts. roundabout

On the surface, they call each other brothers, but they secretly make a series of stabs in the back; or when they are cooperating and trading, they speak sour words in their mouths. These are the daily routines of Longdao and the empire.

The reason is that only those who have a deep understanding of Longdao know the reason. There are two distinct forces on Longdao. If one party cooperates, the other party will definitely hinder it. Or disdain for the arbitrary shifting of the empire's position.

The Dragon Emperor and the Dragon God behind him are in the same camp, and the Dragon Mother of all things is in another camp. Although the confrontation between the two sides has not erupted into a substantive conflict, various stumbling blocks and small tricks are emerging in an endless stream.

Generally speaking, if the Dragon Emperor and Dragon God show their favor, the Dragon Mother of all things should jump out and sing the opposite. But this time, as soon as the gift from the Dragon God arrived, the gift from the Dragon Mother of All Things followed.

What was sent was a young female dragon that had been born for a period of time. The golden dragon race, in terms of blood relationship, also belongs to the aristocratic class in the dragon race of Dragon Island.

The growth curve of dragons is completely different from that of humans.

If human beings are used as the standard, Midi's average lifespan is about fifty years old today, and fifteen years old is considered an adult; dragons have an average lifespan of five hundred years, wouldn't it take one hundred and fifty years to be considered an adult dragon? In fact, the infancy of the Dragon Clan is not that long. roundabout

Infants are weak among all creatures, so they need their parents to take care of them at all times. The longer the infancy, the longer the weak time.

As the creatures at the top of the Midi ecosystem, how could the dragon race have such a long period of weakness. It's not much to say that the parents of the Dragon Clan are super irresponsible models.

In fact, this is also the normal state of oviparous animals. The responsibility of the parents probably goes as far as hatching the child from the egg. Even if it is a bird, it is time to live in separate nests after taking care of the young birds to fly.

Due to various factors, the juvenile period of the Dragon Clan is doomed not to be too long. Because if it remains weak for too long, it is easy to be killed by other creatures.

Under normal circumstances, after the giant dragon hatches from the egg, the juvenile period will last for about twenty years. Next will be adolescence of more than 100 years, adulthood of more than 200 years, and then old age of more than 100 years.

If you don't take that critical step, you can enter the Dragon Tomb by yourself and wait to die.

The Dragon Mother of All Things sent it, nominally a female golden dragon serving as the prince's guard, who was just a baby born more than ten years ago. In theory, she would be out of childhood at about the same time as the prince. roundabout

Judging from Jinlong's status and her adulthood time. The feeling of everyone is that instead of sending guards, the Dragon Mother of all things sent a hostage and a child bride.

The attitude is also the same, if the two little ones get along in the future, let them become husband and wife. If you don't get along, you can be a guard or a follower, and you don't accept returns anyway.

This is no different from an alliance between the two parties.

Moreover, the two camps on Long Island show favor to one side at the same time, and there is no hostility or competition between the camps, this is an unprecedented situation.

Regardless of whether it is possible for the expelled magician to turn back into a sharp blade in the hands of the empress because of the child. The attitude of Longdao side as the empress' backer is very obvious.

Under such circumstances, because they are afraid of the possible consequences of the constitutional monarchy, the nobles who intend to overthrow everything have to consider another thing.

That is, after losing the constraints of the constitutional system and regaining power, will the empress still be a powerless vase that was **** a few years ago and played by the nobles in their hands. roundabout

Compared with the harm of the lower council, the empress who regained the power of life and death, and has the support of Long Island and the magician as the backing, is not only more dangerous than that, but the harm is more likely to be immediate and fatal .

On the one hand, there is a fight, and maybe there is still a chance to win; on the other hand, there is no choice but to kneel unconditionally, or to be buried. So it seems that it is not difficult to decide which way to go down.

The status of the Empress is as immovable as a mountain. Now that the constitutional monarchy is being promoted smoothly, no one hopes, and no one dares to invite the emperor who has been put on the pavilion to the world again.

The name of the emperor does not become a past tense, but a sleeping lion-like existence. No one dares to disturb easily.

A small incident that was not taken seriously by many people. Not long after the late emperor's son, Duke Behar, died suddenly in the tower where he was under house arrest.

It was declared to be a sudden illness, but in fact it was the kindness of the royal family members. Because if a member of the royal family dies, his territory and title will of course return to the emperor.

Such an ending was not what the Empress hoped to see. Others, however, acted wisely, thinking they had shown their loyalty. Such behavior not only made Alegria feel speechless, but also most of the nobles who knew the truth. roundabout

It can only be said that this group of people would be deprived of the right to inherit the throne in the first place, not without reason. Doing things so recklessly and leaving no room for leeway, I don't know how to do it self-righteously with a greeting first, and then take credit for it at the end.

Seeing this, the other old nobles thought that if there were such idiots in their family, they would have been strangled to death on the spot. To avoid adding chaos to the family and leaving handles for other families.

The empress didn't do that, she didn't even look straight at the clowns. Alegria just admired how deep despair a group of people would fall into when they lost their power and gradually lost their control.

Originally, the little Duke Behar would also be one of them, and his life was even more difficult. Because he is under house arrest, no one is willing to help. Even the vassals of his territory happily became part of the perpetrators. Then people die.

Another thing happened in the Karlsruhe Empire. Although its influence has not yet spread to other places, many people are paying attention to it. The Lord of Justice has changed his job!

It's not right to say that it's a job change, but the Lord of Justice has an extra title of Dharma Guardian.

What law to protect? roundabout

Constitution of the Karlsruhe Empire.

The empress didn't know about this at first. Because the Lord of Justice went directly to the Grand Dukes to discuss it according to a magician's suggestion.

The situation is similar to what someone predicted.

The grand dukes held the principle that they would rather die together than let this matter go unchecked when a **** jumped on their heads. But if they were equals and became colleagues in the name of Dharma protectors, everyone would not be so repulsive.

Some people may worry about whether it will be like boiling a frog in warm water. If the gods have an excuse to intervene in politics, then they will have other reasons to intervene step by step, and in the end they will return to the old way of theocracy over imperial power.

But those who do those things have always been the church of the gods in the mortal world, and the gods themselves are still very principled.

This is also a religious war more than two hundred years ago. The reason why the secular regime can win is because the gods can't stand what the church is doing and let them lose. If the gods really intervened at that time, even if the secular regime had not failed, the war would probably continue to this day. roundabout

In any case, theocracy changed from being isolated from the political arena.

The upper council, that is, the aristocratic council that can form a cabinet, of course has no room for theocracy to intervene. This is also one of the reasons why the Grand Dukes agree that people with church status can run for election to the lower parliament.

No matter how the power of the church expanded, the administrative power of the empire was still in the hands of the nobles.

Just like congressional candidates with outstanding military achievements, people with religious backgrounds can easily gain the favor of regional voters. Especially in the case of the same belief, or at least belong to the camp of good gods.

Compared with other Churches of God, the Lord of Justice, one of the Three Holy Light Churches, is the most active and has the most clear direction.

When other members of parliament were hesitating about why they ran for election and why voters should support them, the priests of the Lord of Justice already knew how to use the slogan of "ensure that the law can be implemented justly and equitably" to win the majority of the voters. consent and support.

In the confusion of this era, people still can't tell the good from the bad. In other words, after each law is enacted, what direction will people develop in, maybe even the person who made the law does not know. roundabout

But the law is not being enforced fairly, which is what happens everywhere.

The Church of the Lord of Justice reached out into the political circle, and they did not create some positions by themselves and began to preach the teachings in a witch-hunt style. It seems that some law enforcers and adjudicators are brought out.

The Church of the Three Holy Lights is very cautious from top to bottom, not to go beyond the legal regulations that have been established and announced. This is the great principle of cooperation between theocracy and government.

However, those who have become members of the council and have the identity of the church will always stand up and communicate with the nobles and lords when encountering injustice against the common people.

At first, of course, I didn't get a good response. Even those high-ranking people are not regarded by ordinary people or churches at all.

But as these councilors 'run votes' in the lower parliament, the UU Reading www.uukanshu.com lords found that their influence was declining. Only then did I realize that something was wrong.

Who is a member of parliament from a certain territory, there is no legal requirement that they must obey the orders of the lord! roundabout

Then it is reasonable for members of parliament to make the best and most correct choice for the voters they have elected.

In someone's plan, the process of depriving the aristocracy of power would have waited until the constitutional government had matured and the people had become more familiar with the use of the power in their hands. Unexpectedly, with the help of the church, the whole process happened so early!

The church is not without capable people. Priests and bishops who can operate in a diocese are not idiots who can easily rise to power by blood relationship.

They just didn't have the opportunity to intervene in the political arena before. Now that they have the opportunity, who else knows how to buy people's hearts better than them!

Not to mention that the Lord of Justice is still in touch with a certain magician. As the messenger of justice, the pandaren Bibi often travels between the southern empire and the holy city of Estali in the north of the center.

If it had been in the past, a year would have passed on such a journey. Although the teleportation magic circle can be used, the expensive price cannot withstand frequent use.

However, the popularization of fast airships has improved such problems. The current Midi can be said to have skipped the railway personnel transportation and directly used the means of air transportation. This is another major change in the past twelve years. Lanben website:
