The conversation of the partners attracted George's attention. He looked at the dishes, and his pupils shrank slightly.

It turns out that they are all stewed vegetables and the wine is also rice wine

Although the style is quite different from those he has eaten before, the aroma is very familiar to him

"Master." Jasmine introduced with a smile on her face: "This is a special food that is exclusive to Yue Kingdom, and although this restaurant looks ordinary, the cook here is a retired palace chef. During private visits, I often come here to taste it quietly. The cooking techniques of this restaurant are not only outstanding, but also the ingredients are very unusual. There are cinnamon bark and star anise from Qiongying Tulip County, and peppercorns from Nanhuang , and spices from all over the world, such as Shannai from the Canglan Basin, are the most complete in Yueguo.”

George rubbed off a piece of elbow skin and took a bite.Feeling the familiar taste, he couldn't help but moved and said: "This is the normal cooking method of spices, Lorna, after you study hard, don't stew grapes with pepper and star anise anymore."

Lorna rolled her eyes fiercely: "Y-you can do it yourself in the future"

Next, while eating, George looked at the teahouse.He always felt that this place was very familiar, but although Yueguo had very oriental characteristics, there were still many differences due to the differences in history and culture.

Jasmine's words interrupted George's thoughts.

"Master, don't worry, there are actually some eyeliners here. But they are all from the royal family." As Irene spoke, she quietly glanced at several swordsmen who were gagging with the crows.

Those swordsmen were dressed in plain clothes, and their mouths were full of nasty jokes.Looks like a bunch of idle mercenaries.And George also saw with his own eyes before that a group of businessmen hired several swordsmen away.

Thinking of this, a name suddenly appeared in George's mind - Jin Yiwei.

"Master, although these swordsmen belong to the royal family, it doesn't matter much. Because in Dongcheng District, their eyes and ears are all ours." Jasmine said: "In fact, we have always cooperated They think we are pro-imperialists in the temple. In their eyes, Dongcheng District is the territory of the royal family. In their eyes, these pro-imperial factions in Dongcheng District are royal people-we Some forces in the temple have always treated the queen as 'Ariadne'."

George muttered secretly with some exclamation: "Irene's play is really high.This girl is the complete opposite of Soraya's personality.Soraya can give up her life for the sake of face.And Irene doesn't care about anything for the benefit'

He now somewhat understands how the Public Assistance Society broke into the Royal Consortium.

Jasmine continued: "We have always obeyed their orders. And through the influence of the consortium, our interests tend to converge. Over the years, we have been united to clean up heretics and blood races. We even captured a few A possessed lurker."

George nodded, rubbed his chin, and asked, "How does the queen view the identity of 'Ariadne'?"

"She doesn't reject it—this is beneficial to the rule of the Moon Kingdom, and it can also attack the lurkers."

George nodded, and from Jasmine's words, he heard something strange—Irene was not as reliable as she appeared.

In other words, she did not have a solid grasp of the belief in Yue Kingdom.

Over the years, Irene's main development has been commerce.The intelligence network is actually only incidental—the reason why she is integrating internal forces now is precisely because some of her subordinates have completely regarded the queen as their master.

So Irene is afraid of the queen's power.

’ No wonder Palos said that the Queen’s people will contact us these days—they can’t be avoided at all.Looks like I was right to give him some vaccinations.If you completely trust Irene's power, I'm afraid there will be misunderstandings in the future. '

George somewhat understood why Palos said that it was difficult to avoid the queen in the Moon Kingdom.I also somewhat understand why Irene wants him to deal with the queen—if Irene wants to completely turn against the guest after showing the miracle.Then the queen has to admit that she is Ariadne's angel.

Otherwise, if the queen plays tricks, saying that the queen's real body has descended to the temple.That's interesting.

For this matter, George actually has a different view - as long as the Queen can deal with the devil firmly, it doesn't matter who controls the Moon Kingdom.

And Irene is too smart, it doesn't matter if she is smart, but she has too many thoughts.So if it is true as she said, it may not be a good thing for the entire Yue Kingdom to be completely controlled by her.

According to George, if there is no temple in the future in Yueguo, and all priests believe in the light of dawn, then it is the best

George shook his head, looked at the nobles in the teahouse, and changed the subject.

He found that although the nobles and ordinary people dressed in the same way, if you look carefully, you will find the difference between the two-knowledge and insight.

At the same time, he found that nobles are also very respected by the common people,

This made George feel a little doubtful, so he couldn't help asking.

"Those nobles are all neighbors who know the basics - most of them have titles and no real power. And the nobles in this street, their ancestors are mostly members of the royal family. It's just that under the system of the Moon Kingdom since ancient times, If nobles don’t have the ability, they will often not be rich for a few generations. So by their generation, they are completely lonely.”

In Jasmine's narrative, George learned.Moon Country is completely different from other countries.

Not only the beliefs here are different from other countries, but also the culture and politics are very different.

The Kingdom of the Moon has not been a feudal system since ancient times - it was jointly established by several moon gods, and the first king was a serious archangel.Later, although the dynasties changed, each generation of kings claimed to be the emperor granted by heaven, and claimed to be the son of the moon god.

Therefore, in the history of Yue Kingdom, imperial power and divine power were unified for most of the time.

The situation where eight kings and four princes are in power like Eldar and Nanhuang does not exist here.Although the nobles have fiefs, they have no actual control over the territory.There are not many private soldiers.So the lord civil war does not exist here.

In Yue Kingdom, there has always been a policy similar to the Tweet Order.

The only flaw is that because the Moon Kingdom is relatively close to the Holy Empire, it is restricted.And because of geographical reasons, it is not suitable for expansion from east to west.

But also because the monarchs of all generations paid more attention to the development of their own country, this place has become a real empire two centuries ago!

In the past few hundred years, as the influence of the Forbidden Sanctuary on the Moon Kingdom has grown, domestic politics has become more stable-the magic technology used by the Forbidden Sanctuary to defeat the Holy Court is decisive for the ideological awakening of the Moon Kingdom. of.

And with the gradual rise of new thoughts, the power of the people is also constantly awakening.So in the generation of Grandpa Queen, the new aristocrats headed by the college have grown to full maturity - most of them only have titles, not even fiefs, but they are members of various consortiums, with far more wealth in their hands than the old aristocrats.

They are the first generation of British nobles in the true sense.The student of Palos, the queen's grandfather, is the head of the new school.He is also the real boss of the royal consortium.

The consortium has discovered the restriction of land annexation on productivity—those damn nobles, the consortium is not allowed to hire too many laborers!It also hinders them from developing the land!

Thus, under the influence of the consortium, the new sect, and the old emperor, the Restoration began.

In this reform, there is not only the support of the consortium and the new faction, but also the support of the down-and-out nobles and folk forces.There are constantly outstanding commoners becoming British nobles, and old-school nobles are constantly being stripped of their land.

In the generation of the queen's father, the power of the Congress reached its peak, and with the help of the emperor, the royal family also began to lay off staff.

As for the Queen, she has already become the most powerful king in the history of the Moon Kingdom—her strength is like a god, and she is also the incarnation of the Moon God recognized by the Holy Court, which provides the basis for her drastic reforms.

As a result, the monthly money of the clan's relatives would even be gone—from the point of view of the entire royal family and all the consortiums, those wastes who are sitting and waiting to die can't even start a company, so why should they support them?

Of course, on the surface, these offending things are all done by the queen's lovely uncle the regent. When the queen kicked this dirty glove away, she also secretly dealt with the forces in the country that did not support the New Deal. up.

Although things are always reversed, the current Queen's power is not as good as before because of the gap with the Holy Court.However, the Holy Court also fell into an embarrassing situation because of this—it’s easy to ask God to send God away, and the entire heaven and the Holy See recognized this Moon God, but now it’s not because she wants to strip off her halo, she can strip it off .

Jasmine continued: "After the reform of the Moon Kingdom, the treasury will no longer distribute monthly money to these nobles. But at the same time, after the reform, many down-and-out nobles can make a living. They are allowed to become officials, do business, and enter colleges. But now they have more outlets." Jasmine said, "Most of the nobles who are still in Moon City are nobles who support the New Deal—those who do not support the New Deal. , either they were exiled to the Little Principality of the Moon Kingdom by His Majesty Charles, or they had already been cleaned up. The people who often come to the teahouse are all small bosses, and they are all pro-imperial faction. Many people, because of their higher education, So they are very respected by the people. Some people are still small officials in the city hall elected by the people.”

The concept of being proud of nobles has not been completely eliminated in the Moon Kingdom.Therefore, the people of Yue Kingdom still like to be led by nobles.

But for this era, this is still a great ideological leap.

It can be said that with the efforts of successive kings of the Moon Kingdom, the entire Moon Kingdom has gradually become a British kingdom.

They had achieved the 'English nobility' that George had contemplated.With the continuous liberation of productivity, policies will continue to change.

'Yueguo did social change earlier, and many things can still be learned and referenced. 'George looked at those crows and swordsmen:'Especially their intelligence network.Maybe Martin should follow their example and set up an intelligence network completely belonging to the shelter. '
