Chapter 690: The Reform of the Moon Kingdom

Next, while George was eating, he looked at the teahouse. He always feels that this place is very familiar, but although Yue Kingdom has very oriental characteristics, there are still many differences due to historical and cultural differences.

Jasmine's words interrupted George's thoughts.

"Master, don't worry, there are actually some informants here. But they are all members of the royal family." Irene said while quietly glancing at a few swordsmen who were messing with the crows.

The swordsmen were dressed plainly, and their mouths were full of dirty jokes. They look like a bunch of idle mercenaries. George had also seen with his own eyes that a group of businessmen hired several swordsmen away.

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

"Master, although these swordsmen are from the royal family, it doesn't matter much. Because in Dongcheng District, their eyes and ears are all our people." Jasmine said, "In fact, we have always cooperated with each other. ——They think that we are the pro-imperialists in the temple, and in their eyes, Dongcheng District is the territory of the royal family. In their eyes, these pro-imperialists in Dongcheng District are the royal people. Some forces in the temple have always treated the Queen as 'Ariadne'."

George sighed and muttered secretly: ‘Irene’s skill is really good. This girl is completely opposite to Soraya's personality. Soraya could give up her life just to save face. And Erin doesn’t care about anything for the sake of benefit’

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

Jasmine continued: "We have always obeyed their advice. And through the influence of the consortium, our interests tend to be aligned. Over the years, we have joined forces to clean up cultists and vampires. We have even captured a few A possessed lurker."

George nodded, touched his chin, and asked, "What does the Queen think of the identity of 'Ariadne'?"

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

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

In other words, her belief in the Moon Kingdom is not firm.

In these years, Irene's main development has been business. The intelligence network is actually just incidental - the reason why she is integrating internal forces now is precisely because some of her people have completely regarded the Queen as their master.

Therefore, Irene was wary of the queen's power.

‘No wonder Palos said that the Queen’s people will come into contact with us in the past few days – there is no way to avoid it. It seems I was right to ask him to get some vaccinations. If I completely trust Irene's power, I'm afraid there will be misunderstandings later. ’

George somewhat understood why Palos said that it was difficult to avoid the queen in the Moon Kingdom. I also somewhat understood why Irene wanted him to take care of the queen - if Irene wanted to completely turn her back on the guest after showing her miracle. Then the queen must admit in person that she is Ariadne's angel.

Otherwise, if the queen plays a trick and says that the queen's true body has arrived at the temple. That would be interesting.

George actually had another view on this matter - as long as the Queen could deal with the devil resolutely, it didn't matter who controlled 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 her to completely control the entire Moon Kingdom.

After reading it in George, if there is no temple in the Moon Kingdom in the future and all the priests believe in the light of dawn, then it will be the best.

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

He found that although the nobles and the common people were dressed similarly, if you look closely, you will find the difference between the two - knowledge and insight.

At the same time, he found that the nobles were also highly respected by the people.

This made George feel some doubts and couldn't help but ask.

"Those nobles are all well-informed neighbors - most of them are guys with titles but no actual power. And most of the nobles in this street have ancestors who are members of the royal family. It's just that under the ancient system of the Moon Kingdom, If the nobles are not capable, they will often be rich for only a few generations, so by their generation they are completely lonely."

In Jasmine's narration, George learns. The Moon Country is completely different from other countries.

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

The Moon Kingdom has not been a feudal system since ancient times - it was jointly established by several moon gods, and the first generation of kings was a serious archangel. Although the dynasties changed later, each generation of kings claimed to have the power of heaven and claimed to be the sons of the Moon God.

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

The situation like that between Elda and Nanhuang, where eight kings and four princes are in power, does not exist here at all. Although the nobles had fiefs, they had no actual control over the territory. There aren't many private soldiers either. Therefore, civil war among lords does not exist here.

In the Moon Kingdom, there has always been a policy similar to the order of grace.

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

But because each generation of monarchs paid more attention to the development of their own country, this place had become a real empire two centuries ago!

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

And as new ideas gradually emerged, the power of the people continued to awaken. So by the time of the Queen's grandfather, the new aristocracy headed by the academy had grown fully mature - most of them only had titles, not even fiefs, but they were people from various consortiums, and the wealth in their hands was far more than that of the old aristocrats.

They were the first generation of British aristocrats in the true sense. And Palos's student - the Queen's grandfather, was the head of the new school. He was also the real boss of the Royal Consortium.

The consortium discovered the constraints of land annexation on productivity - those damn aristocrats did not allow the consortium to hire too many workers! It also hindered them from developing land!

So, under the influence of the consortium, the new school and the old emperor, the reform began.

In this reform, there is not only support from the consortium and the new faction, but also support from the downtrodden nobles and civilian forces. There are constantly outstanding civilians becoming British nobles, and there are constantly old nobles being deprived of their land.

By the time of the Queen's father, the power of the Parliament reached its peak, and under the emperor's instigation, the royal family also began to lay off staff.

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

Therefore, the monthly salary of the clan members will even be gone - in the eyes of the entire royal family and all the consortiums, those useless people who sit and wait for death can't even start a company, so why should they support them?

Of course, on the surface, these offensive things were 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 policy.

Although things will turn around when they reach the extreme, the current Queen's power is no longer as strong as before because of the gap with the Holy Court. However, the Holy See also fell into an awkward situation because of this - it is easy to invite a god but difficult to send him away. In the beginning, the entire Heaven and the Church recognized this Moon Goddess, but now it is not possible to strip off her halo just by wanting to.
