League of Legends: Chasing Beauty Song
Chapter 296
Rorschach really didn't expect that this damn woman was digging a big hole for herself here. This is a sinkhole, which is equivalent to offending all the nobles at once.
But think about it the other way around. If Rorschach was Cecilia, she would definitely say the same thing. Even if she is Swain's sister, she can't bear the blame for offending everyone. It's better to find a scapegoat. If something goes wrong, just kill him to calm the anger of the nobles.
I'm still writing "Shang Yang". How did Shang Yang die? How did Chao Cuo die? Why didn't I remember it at all? These are all lessons from the past.
Feeling countless sharp gazes, Rorschach stood up and said with a smile: "I am just working for the City Hall. You don't have to look at me like that. I should do my job well."
This is obviously a slap in the face. A middle-aged man smiled sinisterly: "Mr. Hugo means that we are all celibate people?"
"Okay," Swain stared at Rorschach for a long time. When he heard someone questioning him, he helped Rorschach out and said: "The Immortal Bastion City Hall has given its own plan. What do other cities say?"
This is obviously forcing local officials to express their opinions. The meaning is very clear that 520 people have set an example. What are you doing sitting there?
"Sir, our municipal government will definitely cooperate with the parliament's reform," the middle-aged man just now hesitated for a moment and said, "But, should all the nobles also cooperate? After all, there will be fiefs of your families in our jurisdiction, and they do not bear taxes."
As soon as this was said, the nobles present were immediately unhappy. Lord Alyssa said, "We have shed blood for the empire, and I don't think a small fief reward is too much."
"That's the problem," the middle-aged man said sadly, "I admit that your ancestors shed blood and even paid their lives for the empire, but this kind of good news has been passed on to future generations, which is a bit too big to be passed on. At present, the empire is facing internal and external troubles. If someone is given a fiefdom every time he goes on an expedition, how can we, the municipal officials, maintain the operation of the city and pay taxes to the empire? Without taxes, how can the empire maintain a huge military system?"
As soon as this sentence came out, it was unanimously affirmed by all local officials. They are political officials. After all, they have no right to tax the lords under their jurisdiction.
The Faceless Man knocked on the table to stop the buzzing sound and said, "If this policy is abolished, it will shake the foundation of the empire. It is not feasible!"
Rorschach, who had been keeping his head down, suddenly raised his lips slightly and whispered, "There is a way."
The voice was very low, but everyone heard it, and everyone's eyes were on Rorschach.
Swain said, "Then please let Mr. Hugo tell me your way."
"The empire can recognize the fiefs of the old lords, and the empire can also grant fiefs to the descendants of the lords, but it will be based on the original fiefs of the family. As for the newly-promoted lords who want to advance,, it is entirely possible to use external land for enfeoffment. The Empire has new territories in Shurima, Ionia and other places. They can be enfeoffed and let the new lords open up the wasteland. "
"As for the municipal administration, since you are a lord, you should bear the financial expenditure of the municipal administration in the region. After all, you have enjoyed the privileges granted by the Empire, and you should bear the due obligations for this," Rorschach said and sat down directly.
The people in the banquet hall fell silent again, but the expressions on everyone's faces were completely different. Some people looked at Rorschach as if they wanted to eat him alive, some looked at Rorschach as if they were looking at a monster, some looked at Rorschach with admiration, and some looked at Rorschach with very complicated eyes.
Rorschach's idea is very simple. Since you want to trick me, then I will play a big game. You must have never heard of Zhufu Yan's Enfeoffment Order. I will add some ingredients to you so that you can taste something new. .
In fact, when Rorschach thought of Chao Cuo's (adab) just now, he thought of Zhufu Yan. If this move was carried out by an emperor as decisive and cruel as Emperor Wu of Han, he could carry it out, but if it was replaced by a weak emperor, he would have been finished long ago, and the country would have been in turmoil.
Rorschach did not believe that Swain had the courage and means of Emperor Wu of Han. He might not use this method, but as long as these nobles knew about it, they would be vigilant. Who knows when the Trifalli Council will use it.
Then, distrust will appear. The nobles will no longer be in harmony with ordinary civilians, but will be wary of each other and distrust each other. The next step is to fight each other, and the fight from the dark will slowly rise to the surface. We must work together. The situation that has just stabilized will definitely get out of control.
As long as it gets out of control, there will be many opportunities.
Lord Father Yan's end was also miserable, but this was not a big deal for Luo Xia. After all, Lord Father Yan wanted to make a living in the Han Dynasty, and Luo Xia came to Noxus to hang out. When these guys want to unite to deal with him, he can just run away.
But to be honest, this method is a good thing for Swain. The Enfeoffment Order is an effective means to strengthen centralization. The lord's land will be broken down bit by bit, and it may not be as large as the territory of the knights of the white pig ancestors in the Middle Ages. The smaller the territory, the heavier the taxes will be. The final result is that it is better not to have the territory. It would be easier to hand it over to the Empire for jurisdiction.
As for the new fief division, it will be divided into uncultivated places, and the lords will contribute money, effort and manpower to do it, and the Empire can just sit back and enjoy the achievements.
Let these people worry about it, it has nothing to do with you anyway, just watch the show.
Rorschach can watch the show, but everyone who is doing it feels that they can't sit back and watch the show, which completely harms their own interests.
At first, the local officials looked at Rorschach with angry eyes, but now it has become the nobles who look at Rorschach with angry eyes.
There is a hint of gratitude and fear in the eyes of the local officials looking at Rorschach. After all, this guy was born a commoner., more or less on their side. The previous reform proposals were harsh on their side, but they didn't expect that they would be even harsher on the nobles.
The nobles were just watching the show, but they didn't expect that they would become actors on the stage. That damn guy was going to dig up their roots. Didn't they want to enjoy a superior life by bleeding for the empire? If they followed this guy's method, they would enjoy nothing. It would be better not to accept the fiefdom. Wouldn't it be good to let the empire pay for it? (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
"I think this method is feasible," Darius, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said this. In an instant, the whole banquet hall exploded, and a group of gentlemen began to quarrel.
Rorschach achieved his goal. Taking advantage of the gap between the gentlemen's quarrel, he opened his cheeks and started to eat. .
