Interstellar Farmer

Chapter 348: Presbyterian Church

The Presbyterian Church is the family management body, and the emperor has extremely high rights in the family. The supremacy of monarchy is listed as the first article in the supreme principles of the Presbyterian Church. In other words, William XIV is the real head of the family. , the Presbyterian Council must unconditionally support and obey all his orders; of course, the Presbyterian Council will not be just a decoration. If the emperor does something that is extremely contrary to the interests of the family, then the Presbyterian Council will exercise its veto power. The right to cut off the emperor's position, and the most severe punishment can even cut off the entire direct line of the royal family and directly incorporate it into the collateral line! ——The reason why William's branch came to power is because the previous branch made a big mistake. It has been inherited fourteen times so far. This is also the origin of William XIV.

Do not engage in hypocritical democracy and strengthen the imperial power with necessary restrictions. This is one of the reasons why the William family has been able to stand in West until now. Of course, there is a very important issue here, that is, how to ensure the Presbyterian Church Are the elders all dedicated to serving the public good? The William family also has its own method, that is, after selecting candidates who have made significant contributions to the family, they will relax their minds, inject confessions, and record them before they can take up the position. This will happen every other year after that. Come last time. There are no secrets or privacy. Only such people are the best candidates for elders.

For the royal family, the issue of heirs is equally important. In this regard, the William family is both lax and strict. As long as the reigning emperor does not make big mistakes, the established direct line will continue. Pregnancy is naturally a necessary condition, but if there are no heirs within a limited period of time, it will be the turn of the Elders Council to take action. At that time, under the supervision of the elders, the current emperor and the family members selected from the family will The saint performs the union. This is a mandatory rule. No matter you are willing or not, no matter whether you have a good relationship with the queen or not, no one can intervene. As long as there is no heir, you have to go through this process until the saint has blood - in fact, in the universe At this stage in the development of civilization, all genetic diseases and defects have been overcome, and there is still no big problem in leaving blood! However, William XIV is in some danger now, because he has a good relationship with the queen. Although he has many concubines, he only has three sons, and now he only has one son, Ziegler. If something happens to Ziegler again, he will will get into this embarrassing situation. This situation also has a common name, and that is stallion!

Although the name Presbyterian Church is known to the outside world, no one knows its location. William XIV's actions this time were naturally very secretive. The Royal Guards escorted William and Ziegler. They first entered the William family's exclusive family control area. After passing through a large storage planet, the following battleships transformed into The thousands of warships stopped in front of one of the extremely inconspicuous garbage stars; after a communication signal was sent out, the dead garbage star suddenly opened a door, revealing the deep corridor inside. The corridor is very wide, enough for five warships to easily enter side by side. The battleships lined up in order immediately filed in, and then the door was closed again, and the entire area fell silent again.

There are a lot of elders in the Presbyterian Church, usually around 10,000, and they are also graded, from level five to the highest level. There are twelve first-level elders, and above them, there is an unranked great elder, who also has the greatest power. They are all held by the direct abdicated emperor, so they have terms of office.

After arriving, William and Ziegler met with the thirteen elders in the Supreme Resolution Hall of the Presbyterian Church. This hall is not big, because all in all, there are only a few dozen people who can appear here.

William took out the Intelligent Brain, but did not connect to the super brain in the conference hall. He just said nothing and looked at the thirteen elders one by one, over and over again, leaving dozens of people confused. Finally, The First Elder couldn't stand it anymore and scolded with a smile: You're itchy, aren't you? You can't hide something! Do you have some good news to entertain me? Let's see if I can beat you to death!

Only the great elder here dares to scold William like this. Who knows that he is the father of William's fourteenth generation, which is also the thirteenth generation! Although William XIV was also given the title of Old William in Han Zhen's mouth, at this place, this old name was not his turn.

William was in such a happy mood at this time. Even after being scolded by me, the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed. After coughing twice, he connected to the super brain and said: Elders, now you see What will arrive will be extremely shocking news, good news that can truly prove that the family's choice this time is completely correct, it will be..., OK, OK, I say it, I say it! The old man who saw him glared at him fiercely. , already holding Jingmu in his hand, William did not dare to show off, and shouted repeatedly.

Only here will William look like a junior. The thirteen people here are all his father's generation, or even older generations! Seeing William offering the treasure, most people couldn't help but smile. The most shocked person was Ziegler. He had never thought that his father had such a side. Everyone looked there dumbfounded.

The holographic screen opened, and the information inside was none other than some information about the Dragon God and the Dragon God's record in the wilderness brought by the communication fleet secretly dispatched by Han Zhen. At the same time, attached was also the information about the William Family Intelligence Department. The signed authenticity certificate after verification of this information - in Taici Ling, there is a team of liaison officers sent by William to facilitate communication with the Han family.

Elders who may not know enough about satellites may not react strongly to the Dragon God data, but when they heard that Han had captured three extremely complete satellites with just one Dragon God, everyone jumped. stand up.

Is this real!? How is this possible!? Three satellites!? Are you sure it's Mei Jie, Jayne and Baoda!? Really the entire army was wiped out!? The elders lost their composure Behavior is difficult to see. In William's memory, this should be the strongest one. Seeing such a reaction, he had to praise the correctness of his great choice again.

It must be true! So many real images are enough to prove it, there is no doubt at all. The damage to the three captured satellites was not serious. Han Zhen also brought a message to me. It may be as short as one year and up to one and a half years. Among them, A satellite can be activated, and then it will be time to sweep the entire territory of Siger!... William explained with great ease, and the depression he had been holding back for several years was completely overwhelmed by the explanation. All of them were swayed away together.

It is not a simple matter for a family to develop and survive for a long time, and it is not possible to look at one side when considering problems. When William XIV proposed supporting the Han family in the Presbyterian Church, no one knew about the Han family at the time. Under such circumstances, the obstruction encountered was not as great as usual. 30% of the elders directly opposed it, 50% of the elders chose not to participate, and even the remaining 20% ​​did not support it. They just hoped to use this opportunity to benefit both sides!

One can imagine how difficult it would be to get them to support the Han family under such circumstances. Although the Han family came up with a lot of things in the next few years, at least half of the elders still strongly opposed it. If they hadn't taken on the identity of the emperor to ensure that they would bear all the consequences; You must obey this clause if you have not made any mistakes; if it were not for the support of your own son and your own father;...it would be impossible to reach this point! When the clouds clear and the moon shines brightly, everything that happens now can finally prove that my decision back then was not wrong at all!

William pulled his son, and it was up to Ziegler to do the next thing.

Dear elders, Han Zhen, the patriarch of the Han family, has told me privately that when the three satellites are all repaired, one of them, probably the Buda or Jayne, will be given to me unconditionally. Me! Speaking of his pride, Ziegler couldn't hide the pride in his words.

What?! This time not only did all the elders jump up, but most of them fell down. There's no better news than this! An interstellar satellite, something that was unimaginable twenty years ago, could actually be owned by my family a year or two later? Two elders with heart problems have started taking medicine. This news is so shocking that it almost makes people stunned.

After nearly an hour, the resolution hall became quiet. The elder patted Jingmu and said, Well, it seems that we made the right move by supporting the Han family. This news can be brought out in the plenary meeting. I think, It should be that no one will object again, right?

“No!” “Agree!”…. The elders all had red faces, and they answered with unprecedented ease.

It is impossible to be a member of the Council of Elders, especially the highest elder, with selfish motives. In the past, the opposition was for the sake of the family, so it was safe to say that the situation at that time, in the eyes of any Wester person except Ziegler and his son, would feel that the gap between the Han family and the two major seventh-level families was really too big, so big that the elders They couldn't believe that there would be a day of victory; and although they had to agree under William's strong request, was that because there was really no way to object? Definitely not! If all the elders vetoed it, they could impose sanctions based on extreme violation of the family's interests. But in the end, the elders did not move, because although this was risky, it was also an opportunity, an opportunity for the William family to develop rapidly and for thousands of years. A rare opportunity!
