Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 608 Political Game
"The church wants to participate in this empire's action?" Perfecto stroked the bear skin under him and put one foot on the bear's head that was specially preserved. His expression was a little playful. "Of course, I can, but I want to know the reason."

Although this is what he said, in fact, Perfect could guess the reason. It was nothing more than that the church hoped to take this opportunity to purge or sort out the heretical sects in the colonies.

After all, in the past, with the official support of the empire, the church has always been the most mainstream religious school in the empire. It has carried out missionary activities both in the empire's homeland and in its colonies, and has accumulated a very deep foundation of faith.

But the arrival of the doomsday winter not only cut off the exchanges between the empire itself and the colonies, but also caused the church to lose control over the colonial branches.

Now that the empire has decided to retake its colonies, how can the church not intervene and retake its own branch church?

"The church hopes to reintegrate the faith of the colonies into the orthodox faith. I beg for permission, Your Excellency the Count." Although Sabelle changed the way she phrased it, the meaning remained the same. The core idea is that the church must regain control of the faith of each colony.

Perfect didn't have any objection to this. She just nodded and asked, "Why do you need my permission? Shouldn't you go directly to the imperial authorities for this kind of thing? I remember that the relationship between the church and the royal family has always been very good, right? Aren't Her Majesty the Queen and Her Royal Highness the Princess more effective than me?"

Faced with Perfectot's question, Sabel suddenly found it difficult to answer.

If we answer from a politically correct perspective, there is no doubt that the Queen and the Princess are more effective in speaking.

But who doesn't know now that the one who really has the final say for the empire is the Northern Earl Perfect?

However, this kind of thing obviously cannot be made public. After all, once this matter is brought up in person, it would undoubtedly be accusing Perfect of being a powerful official.

Although this is now known to everyone, as long as Perfect remains a loyal subject of the empire, he will never say such things in front of her.

So Sabelle could only say at this time: "My Lord, you are a living saint canonized by the Patriarch himself and are blessed by the All-Father. As believers of the Lord, we should seek your opinion."

"It's a smart answer, but also a cunning one." Perfect didn't care at all. He just waved his hand and said, "In that case, you can send someone to go with you! But think carefully about whether you want to go with the people from the North or with the people from the Imperial Center."

After saying this, Perfecto asked the old butler to see the guest off without waiting for Sabel to say anything else.

After Sabel left, Perfect stood up and walked barefoot to the window.

The lord's mansion has perfect heating. There is an energy tower and a constant temperature barrier in the square at the door. When Perfectoct walks barefoot in the house, he will only feel a little cold at most, but he will not be chilled.

But at this time, it was snowing outside the window.

Although the energy tower and the constant temperature barrier keep the temperature within their coverage area within an acceptable range for humans, it is still below freezing.

So when it snows, even within the constant temperature barrier of the energy tower, snowflakes will still fall and form thick snow accumulation.

However, compared with the extreme low temperature of dozens of degrees below zero outside the constant temperature barrier, the temperature inside the constant temperature barrier of less than ten degrees below zero is already very comfortable.

However, the accumulated snow will eventually bring some unnecessary impacts to people's production and life. Therefore, government agencies in various parts of the North have also arranged special personnel to be responsible for cleaning work to ensure the smooth flow of roads.

This job was originally done mainly by robots, just like the robot in front of Perfect was clearing the snow in front of the lord's mansion. However, with the arrival of the doomsday winter, the population of the North has seen a large increase due to the migration of the empire's center, making the employment rate a slightly surprising issue.

So now this job is more done by manual cleaning, and machines are only responsible for clearing the snow-covered road surface and transporting the snow out of the city.

The weather is so cold that it is impossible to wait for the snow to melt, so the snow in the city can only be cleared and transported out truck by truck, and then piled outside the city to slowly form a city wall.

The reason I say this is because the Chernobyl city government actually has a plan to build a city wall using snow.

It is said that they believed this would keep out the wind.

Perfect didn't comment on this, but he didn't stop it either. After all, it was theoretically possible.

And the snow in the city really needed to be cleared away, just like some things were bound to happen even if she didn't do it.

"Aunt Annie, I have paved the way for you and created opportunities for you. Now it depends on whether you can seize them." Perfect sighed, but she really didn't have more energy to focus on these things.

Although she seems to be relaxed and lazy recently, in fact, most people see her as a stand-in doll.

As for herself, she stayed in the laboratory for a long time conducting new research, in order to complete the research topic at hand and meet the requirements of the Emerald Jade Record to turn to the seventh page and thus gain the ability of omniscience.

Perfect knew clearly how powerful the ability of omniscience was and what kind of changes it would bring to the world.

She had to devote most of her energy to this matter. As for the political struggle? She really couldn't be distracted too much, so she could only pretend to be lazy, give a general direction when necessary, and leave the rest to her subordinates.

Fortunately, both the officials from the North and the team left to her by the old prince were very capable, and under the guidance of the general principles given by Perfectcot, they handled things quite well.

While maintaining political suppression over the core of the empire, he did not make things so awkward that it would seem as if Perfect was going to follow the example of Grand Tutor Dong and Prime Minister Cao and use the emperor to control the other lords.

Although with Perfectcot's current power and strength, she could really do so, but she did not intend to do so.

After all, she was not interested in power and politics, and she was able to sit in her current position entirely because of the situation, not to mention that she has more important things to do now.

But, just like she said, there are some things that someone else will do even if she doesn't do them.

There is never a power vacuum. If she doesn't hold the power in her hands, then naturally there will be ambitious people who will emerge and want to seize the power.

Therefore, in order to prevent the power of the empire from being really controlled by some ambitious people, Perfecto could only hold the power in his own hands first, and then hand it over to Princess Anne after she grew up to a qualified level.
