Chapter 340 Full Moon Celebration, Prince of the East Palace

In Terry City, the New Year has just passed, and the joy has not yet ended.

Johnny and others who were ordered to rush back looked around in surprise and found that everything was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, giving them a brand new look.

"Always loyal to Her Majesty the Queen!"

"Celebrate the birth of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"Welcome to Reiner's new look!"

……

On the streets and alleys, various slogans, lanterns, and flower pole decorations are still there. Pedestrians on the road are talking and talking, as if they are still recalling the grand feast during this period.

"Your Excellency Roland is so generous, he just invited the whole city to have a banquet and drinks!"

"More than that, there are so many minstrels, jugglers, singing and dancing performances, and card fighting competitions. Which one is not allowed to cost money?"

"We are so blessed, so lucky."

Since the birth of the prince, Roland waved his hand and the whole country celebrated.

In Tai Rui City, there was a big banquet, food and wine, and artistic performances were arranged one after another, and the carnival lasted for nearly a month.

Not to mention the migrant workers, even the city residents who have really taken root here are full of praise.

This is a grand event that everyone has never experienced before, and it is bound to leave a very pleasant group memory.

"It seems that Lord Roland really loves this heir."

For this reason, Jonis couldn't help but sigh.

This may sound a little strange, but many important people have wives and concubines, and many heirs, so not all of them may be favored.

……

In Terry City, Arkham Palace.

Rosa was looking at the reports on various affairs in recent days and found that the kingdom's expenses increased sharply due to the carnival, but it did not cause a deficit. Instead, it promoted the economic cycle to a certain extent and brought in a lot of taxes.

Many small businesses, vendors, restaurants and pubs are making a lot of money, which has greatly benefited the citizens.

However, the funds used for this carnival did not fall out of thin air, but were cut from the great nobles who had previously jumped out to oppose the rule.

After Roland cut off the Scroll Association's tentacles to control the situation here, those big nobles had no backing, and were easily divided and controlled, becoming turtles in the urn.

Now I am like a grasshopper after autumn, unable to jump around for long.

Many of them were severely fined and their homes were confiscated, and they paid a heavy price.

Roland used their money to win people's hearts, build infrastructure, and fill the treasury, which was essentially a way to strengthen the royal power.

They have no ability to resist at all.

"The nobles and powerful men are the worms of the country. The country only needs a king and a government, not the nobles and powerful men.

The Qin State's reforms were essentially strengthening the centralization of power, and the final product was the emperor's crown that combined all the power in the world! "

While checking the information, Rosa made notes on the notebook next to her, and she roughly sorted out the next governing ideas.

“In the past, kingdoms used clans as vassal barriers, enfeoffed the four directions, and guarded the country’s borders.

But this system has begun to fall behind and cannot keep up with the development of the times.

After the vassal withdrawal, the establishment of counties and counties meant that the authority of the past nobles should be replaced by administrative units at all levels.

But in that case, powerful households and the bourgeoisie will develop.

The rangers represented by the adventurers may also break the law with force.

It’s time to use cultural means to give the concept of country and nation, and promote loyalty to the emperor, patriotism, and loyalty to Lena..."

Political, economic, and cultural fields are all reinforcing each other.

What Rosa was thinking about at this time was to promote more patriotic literary and artistic products that would overthrow the feudal nobles and be loyal to the king, so as to further weaken the power of the domestic nobles.

Of course, the powerful will never die, and the struggle between the king and the nobles will continue.

Lena is gradually opening up and has a tendency to become a world of immigrants.

How to ensure unity of thought and cohesion of strength under the impact of this multiculturalism still has a long way to go and many rivers to cross.

"Rosa, why are you so busy again? Didn't I tell you to take a good rest?"

Not long after, Roland came over and saw Rosa wrapped in a blanket at work, and said slightly reproachfully.

There is no such thing as "confinement" in the magical world, but Roland still suggested that Rosa do this in order to take good care of herself.

Rosa flipped up her hair and said, "I just took a quick look at it. I haven't been in charge of government for several months, so I feel a little unfamiliar looking at these reports and memorials."

Roland said: "The human body is delicate, and the loss of Qi and blood cannot be cured by ordinary healing spells in one go.

Even Sister Arela praised my suggestion and asked Mr. Gatos for his advanced experience in postpartum care. Don’t ignore it. "

While talking, he came to Rosa and sat down.

What came into view was an official document holding a full moon celebration for the prince.

The city hall of Terry City requested a financial fund of [-] yuan and prepared to carry out large-scale operations.

Rosa asked: "I happened to see this, do you need to cut down the expenses and save a little bit?"

“Funds could be saved elsewhere, but this is not necessary.”

Roland thought for a while and said to Rosa.

"This is a good opportunity to highlight the royal family's privilege and lead social awareness."

Rosa was a little confused and said: "But now the country has just emerged from the war, but there are still foreign enemies around and hidden dangers of demons. Won't this lead to extravagance and waste?"

"It will definitely happen, but as long as it's not extravagant and excessive, moderate consumption still has many positive effects."

When Roland said this, he was thinking of electronic products and technology-related consumption in his previous life.

Will buying graphics cards, mobile phones, cars, civilian drones and big toys lead to extravagance and waste?
For many families with poor financial conditions, of course.

But for the entire country's job market, technological development is a positive improvement.

Therefore, the relationship here is not as simple as elementary school arithmetic, which can be clarified by just cutting a muscle.

“Lena has great potential for development, and the shortfall it generates can easily be made up by technological progress.

Therefore, the most fundamental question is not how we are, but how are those nobles and powerful people.

To put it bluntly, one or two people can't finish the work, but hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of people can do it together, which is the root cause of death. "

Roland considered it and said to Rosa.

"The main conflict here right now is still the conflict with the clans and the great nobles. If Reiner wants to innovate, he must follow the example of Atrein and vigorously develop magic technology.

The development of magic requires arcane reform and popularization of education.

Universal education also involves equality and freedom.

Liberating the people of Lena from the land of feudal noble lords and sending them to schools, the army, and workshops is the real work.

It may be too early for Reiner to say this now, but sooner or later, human rights, fairness, and the rule of law are all necessary...

This is not because the rulers are benevolent, but after the development of magic, those who possess magical power will inevitably demand more power.

They will regard themselves as the masters of the country.By then, new conflicts will arise. "

"As rulers, we actually give these to our people. Is this really good?" Rosa had great hesitation about this.

Roland shook his head: "The methods of the ruling class always serve to rule."

For example, emancipating black slaves is essentially preparing for industrial development.

Human rights and freedom are also reforms to adapt to productivity.

He was as confused as Rosa now, why there are so many falsehoods hidden behind these beautiful words such as freedom, democracy, rule of law, and equality, and why there are always many things that are not true in name, or even contradictory to themselves.

But thanks to the previous education, the art of slaying dragons was clearly taught in middle school textbooks...

What economic base determines the superstructure, what law is a tool for one class to rule over another class, what state will eventually wither away...

Roland understood that all the good things were just appearances.

The essence lies in whether these powers are obtained through bloodshed and sacrifice, or whether they are the charity or even fraud of others.

There has never been a fairy emperor, nor a savior.

Through self-reliance and hard work, the results will be natural, real and delicious.

Waiting for others to give you, what falls from the sky, what you pick up on the ground, who knows if the gorgeous packaging is fake or substandard?

Roland said to Rosa: "Royal rule will definitely die in Reiner. If the royal family wants to continue its power, it must imitate Atrein's virtual monarch system and slowly transition to a mage-based society.

But there is a long process, and some of the actual benefits can be replaced by gorgeous packaging and distributed to the people slowly and orderly.

When the royal family has its own high-level mage, or when the high-level mage of Lena World chooses to be loyal to the royal family and support the royal family out of traditional inertia, then the power and wealth can continue to be stable..."

The Dragon Slaying Technique has two sides, and when used in reverse, it is the Imperial Technique.

As a time traveler, he is born with the Emperor Technique, which can be said to be an innate skill.

It's just that each has a higher or lower level of consciousness and different levels of practical implementation.

Roland was originally a little talkative, but thanks to these years of experience, he has gradually put what he has learned into practice, and has integrated knowledge and action.

After all, he was really in charge of the school and the kingdom, and he had great power.

Rosa listened attentively and even took notes.

She knew that these words were actually spoken by Roland to his son, and they were imperial skills left to future generations.

Basically, Reiner's direction for the next few hundred years is also here.

But she herself also benefited a lot. She couldn't help showing an expression of admiration and said with emotion: "Originally, I thought it would be difficult to rule the kingdom, but now it seems that it is not that difficult."

When Roland heard this, he smiled and said nothing.

Rosa is still very talented. She has been trained as an eldest princess since she was a child, but she has made rapid progress in just a few years after assisting her in the mage tower and unexpectedly succeeding to the throne.

If you continue to grow like this, it shouldn't be a problem to be on your own after you return to China.

Reiner World, as an important base for the development of the school, is also guaranteed.

……

February 2th, Arkham Palace.

Ritual music sounded and ceremonial guards marched slowly.

"See Her Majesty!"

The ministers gathered here and saluted Queen Rosa who was sitting at the top.

"Salute to Her Majesty the Queen."

Envoys from all over the world and foreigners also came to pay tribute.

At this time, Rosa was wearing an extremely gorgeous royal robe, a family crown on her head, and holding a scepter.

Now that she is a mother, her whole temperament seems to have completely faded away from youthfulness, becoming graceful, plump and mature.

Because she had just given birth, her body was still full of motherly glory, a bit like the goddess temperament in those religious oil paintings.

If in the past she was still labeled as "Her Royal Highness" and many older nobles and ministers didn't pay much attention to her when they saw her, then at this moment, she is a truly mature woman and a majestic king.

However, when Rosa stood up and gave the order, everyone's attention quickly focused on Rowan Siris who was carried out by the ladies.

This is the truth behind "maturity".

She has an heir, a legal basis for maintaining and continuing the royal power, and a guarantee for the future!
"Thank you all for coming to participate in the full moon celebration of my son Rowan Siris. Now, I announce an important decision, which is to crown Rowan Siris as Crown Prince!"

Prince?

Reiner's world does not have such a vocabulary, nor does it have such a political concept, so he can't help but look a little confused.

There are also people who have read "The Romance of the Gods" and heard about the "Three Princes of Nezha" and suddenly realized it.

I know this word!

Brother understand instantly became angry.

The prince refers to the heir to the throne who is confirmed by the current emperor in accordance with legal procedures. Only in the imperial system is the heir to the throne called a prince.

However, Rosa uses the informal title of "Crown Prince" here.

Anyway, there is no Confucianism in this magical world. Even if there is, it will still have to go through magic reform.

She briefly explained it in her own way, and then said to everyone: "I believe everyone has had doubts about the origin of my son Rowan Siris, but today, I will tell you clearly that his father , is the founder of the Seris School, alternate member of the empire, and high-ranking arcanist, Mr. Roland!"

That's right, it's under.

Roland walked out and stood next to Rosa.

"I see……"

"No wonder, no wonder..."

Everyone pretended to be very hard, and they still had to "suddenly realize" something they knew from the beginning.

After all, not many people like overly smart people.

But it's different now. Your Excellency has come out to admit it, and this is no longer an untouchable topic.

Roland looked around and said: "Since the prince is established, he should hire famous teachers to teach him, as well as guards and advisors...

Ubol, Jonis, Mobron, are you willing to serve the prince? "

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

This is an important minister of the country, and he will be the leader of the future.

Some people also wonder how Prime Minister John Boehner has been surpassed.

But there may also be factors such as Diego's premature death and the imbalance of the younger generation. The appointment of these important ministers is to cultivate the group of cultural elites, foreign legions, and comprador businessmen under them.

The three of them quickly bowed down and said, "What an honor!"

Roland had already been angry with them in private about this matter.

As everyone has guessed, this is indeed an arrangement for the forces behind them.

With the heirs as the hub, all these forces can be connected together and used by one's own school.
