Chapter 629 Royal Cabinet
The news that Princess Anne had pacified the Mauvo colony soon spread back to the North.

This news was like a shot in the arm for the royalists, making them feel that there was still hope for the royal family.

Although it sounds a bit against the trend of the times, for the royalists, ensuring the survival of the royal family has a different meaning to them, and it can even be said to be the meaning of their existence.

After all, this was still an era where the feudal lord system existed and people's hearts were bound by loyalty and oaths. It had not evolved to the point where people could easily sell their souls for money and benefits.

Although the royalists are filled with various interests, it has to be admitted that there are indeed people among them who are loyal to the royal family. They only want the royal family to continue to exist and ensure that the royal family's interests are not affected.

But now that the Imperial Council has reached a resolution, and the National Assembly system and the Prime Minister's Cabinet system have also been approved by the Queen, they can no longer go back to the feudal model.

So these people settled for the second best and put forward a proposal that sounded a bit bizarre, which was to nominate Princess Anne as Prime Minister of the Empire and form a royal cabinet.

When he heard the news, Perfect rolled off his chair with laughter.

"What on earth are these people thinking? They actually want to mess with the royal cabinet?" Perfectot laughed so hard that he was out of breath, and asked incomprehensible questions to the old butler beside him.

Although Perfect laughed so inappropriately, the old butler Foster did not remind Perfect to be polite.

The old housekeeper just looked at his young lady lovingly, lamenting that she had not laughed so heartily for a long time.

From this point of view, Foster felt that these royalists did something commendable, at least they made Perfecto happy for a while.

However, the loyal old butler explained to Perfectcott: "They are not stupid, but they are loyal to the royal family. Just like my loyalty to you and the Brandelis family, no matter what the situation, this loyalty will never waver.

Even though they knew they were doing something stupid, they still hoped to maintain the royal family's rule over the empire and maintain the royal family's supreme status."

On this point, the old butler could understand those royalists. Just like when Perfectcott's grandfather died, her parents also passed away one after another, the entire Brandlis family was in turmoil, and Perfectcott dismissed all the servants. At this time, he was the only one who supported the family.

But even during those struggling years, the old butler never wavered in his loyalty to the Brandelis family.

"Loyalty really shouldn't be laughed at, but these people's actions make me doubt their intelligence." Perfect seemed to have laughed enough, but he didn't get up from the ground. Instead, he still lay lazily on his fur carpet and said casually: "If they are smart enough, they will understand that with the progress of the Industrial Revolution, the emerging bourgeoisie itself is going to seize power from the old aristocracy.

This is no longer the feudal era, and the royal family can no longer hold on to the highest power of the entire empire. In the past few decades, both the royal family and the aristocratic parliament have been constantly ceding power.

Centralization and parliamentary power have become an irreversible trend. The reason why the empire did not become a democratic country like France was largely because the royal family gave up power in exchange for a compromise between the feudal aristocracy and the bourgeoisie.

I was able to go against the trend of the times and once again become a powerful landed noble because of the special circumstances caused by the special background of the times.

In the flood of doomsday, only I can save this world and this country, so I became a powerful nobleman with a fiefdom that will never appear again in this era, and I also controlled the armed forces that can threaten the existence of the empire.

If they use me as a reference and think that the times have returned, it will only give them an illusion. A royal cabinet is absolutely impossible. No matter which force it is, it is impossible for a royal cabinet to really exist. "

As Perfect said this, he looked up at his old butler and said to him, "Spread the word that I will not participate in the prime minister election."

"Yes, miss." The old butler did not ask Perfect why she did this, but just faithfully carried out her orders.

After the old butler left the room, Perfect rolled on the ground, then got up and sat at his desk.

On the table was an unfinished document. It was a new law drafted by Perfectot for the empire, which contained a lot of content on improving the working environment of workers and improving their treatment.

Originally, she planned to become the Prime Minister of the Empire after being persuaded by the Queen, and this law was also prepared by her for her term as Prime Minister.

But now she has been influenced by the royalist idea of ​​establishing a royal cabinet and feels that perhaps it would be best for her not to stand for election.

As a result, this half-written draft law seemed to have lost its meaning.

However, Perfecto did not intend to give up on it. Instead, he planned to finish writing the draft and then throw it to the elected members of the Northern faction, who would propose the draft law to cause trouble for the future new prime minister and the National Assembly.

Of course, what is more important is to promote the improvement of workers' treatment and the improvement of the lives of the grassroots people.

Although Perfect has been doing its best to improve workers' treatment in the North, it will be difficult for the North alone to lead the way without the protection of imperial law.

Moreover, the North is suppressed by the prestige of Perfecto himself, rather than by laws and social progress.

Originally, Perfect had planned to do it herself, but now it seemed that if she became prime minister, she would have to compete with a bunch of idiots. She suddenly felt that it would be better for her to be a behind-the-scenes manipulator. Being prime minister was somewhat inconsistent with her.

After all, at heart, Perfecto doesn't think of herself as a politician. Manipulating politics is neither her forte nor what she wants to do.

It would be better to leave things to professionals, and she can control these people behind the scenes to implement her will.

And there is another benefit to doing this, which is that she will not become a target in public.

After all, the memories of the original world had already told her that when the electoral system developed to a certain stage, politicians would do anything dirty to win elections.

Even though it was only the initial stages, Perfecto didn't really believe that those political animals would have any moral integrity.
