And what aroused Nicholas's interest was that even though he had obviously put pressure on the truth, when he answered, the truth looked firmly into his eyes and whispered with no guilt at all, obviously sincere answering his question.

"There are so many books that want to know about war, why do you want to read this book?" Nicholas said with a slight frown, honestly, he didn't quite agree with the truth's response.

"Your Majesty, that's because the data in other books are inaccurate."

However, this sentence of truth immediately caught Nicholas' attention. He clearly remembered that these books that recorded the war were planned and released by the religious academy, so there was no reason for them to be accurate.

"In the history of the Ursas war published by the Academy of Religion, both the data and the casualties have always been different from those recorded by other countries. There are even insults to the soldiers and generals who have failed the war. It is bold to say the truth. Inappropriate, but this book read by Truth reflects on Ursus’s wars over the years, and also praises the soldiers who fought for Ursus, so Truth reads it.”

Even the explanation that the truth followed immediately made Nicholas' eyes widen in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, with a sullen face, he got up and casually picked out a book about the Ursus war to browse and read. Nicholas found that it was true as the truth said. On the bright side, he writes satire on the generals and soldiers who have been defeated, and frantically blames those generals and soldiers who have participated in the war. The comparison with the book written by Nasibia is obvious.

In fact, through the encounter between Herag and the patriots, Nicholas knew that he had thought about the poor treatment of the soldiers of Ursus, but he never thought about it. Whether he is an educator, the country has such a big problem in the education of soldiers, or the religious academy that holds the highest educational authority in Ursus, Nicholas really has nothing to say.

Damn, this group of pedantic keyboard warriors, speaking clearly and logically, they are going to fight by themselves!Fuck, victory or defeat is commonplace for military strategists. You don’t brag when you win a war, and you sneer at it when you lose a war. How can you say that soldiers would rather sacrifice for the country? If you win a war, you may still be a hero. If you lose a war, you’re a piece of shit.Still lazy, fooling around with data casually, making bad money casually! ?

"The truth, you know this Sibia, then I ask you, why was this Sibia exiled to Letania?"

Afterwards, thinking about this question, Nicholas put the book back and sat next to Truth again to ask questions, looking at the pupil of Truth with a solemn expression.

"Return to Your Majesty, Truth heard that he was expelled by the Religious Academy because he offended Your Majesty in the book." Truth replied softly, perhaps because the topic was a little sensitive, her voice was inadvertently much softer.

Little did he know that Nicholas who heard it was so angry that he wanted to laugh. It could be said that he had to open his eyes again. First, he looked down on the soldiers with his pen, and then he used his name to engage in literary inquisition, using this to mutilate a large number of dissidents. Intellectuals to stabilize their rule in the literary world and ensure their own interests.

This Ursas, political corruption, did not expect education to be so corrupt!

At this moment, Nicholas' heart was full of anger. Soldiers were persecuted and despised, civilians were deprived of unlimited capital, and even education had problems. Isn't this washing over his emperor's heart? For the lamp, for the money, for the power, for the profit, you can do anything!

What makes Nicholas feel even more distressed is that a large number of intellectuals who dare to speak and write like Sibia have been persecuted abroad. There is no talent in this intellectual circle and they are all "rotten scholars". There is no hope for this country. When rice was invented, it was estimated that it was fed to a group of selfish Sabbies. If there is a chicken feather to use, let him starve to death, wasting resources alive and wasting land dead.

Sooner or later, he will rectify and ask those 'rotten scholars' to step down!

"That's it... that's indeed my fault. I ignored the intellectuals who think about the country. You can continue to read this book. It doesn't matter if others find out. You have me behind you. I will take care of you and I will find a way to get rid of it. When these people are recruited back to the country, you will be able to read their books in a legitimate way, and you don’t have to be so sneaky anymore.”

But he didn't want the girl to worry for nothing in front of the truth, and shook his head depressedly. Nicholas' tone was full of helplessness, and he also comforted the truth. He didn't want the girl to pay too much attention to the fact that he found out that he was reading banned books.

"But the truth, can you and Lindong be a little more at ease with me, Gumi is fine, why do you and Lindong always like to turn their backs to me and do secret things, so you can't trust me? Ah!?"

Thinking of this again at the end, Nicholas narrowed his eyes and suddenly grabbed Truth's cheeks and kneaded them vigorously on both sides. In fact, he also had a little dissatisfaction. He opened his heart to Lin Dong and Truth, but the two little girls were in a private relationship. It's really not worrying for him to be clever and read banned books.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Yes, I'm sorry, Truth will never do this again..."

And murmured in a low voice, the tender cheeks were pinched by Nicholas faintly flushed, a few strands of crystals flashed in the aura of truth, full of grievances, and the teary little face looked full of grievances. cute.

"...This is more or less~"

Nicholas couldn't help raising the corner of his mouth when he heard it, let go of the truth's little face, and "tasted" the truth's face in a certain way, and it really felt good.

"Remember to be careful in the future, do you hear me? Otherwise, next time I will not only pinch your face, but also scratch your little place~"

At the same time, he did not forget to tease the truth. Nicholas kneaded the little nose of the truth that was covering his blushing face, and smiled even more. How to say a joke that ridicules the truth after careful consideration.

It's a pity that the truth doesn't think so. Manli's jade feet are brought together at once, and her little hands are placed in the middle of the skirt, showing inexplicable anxiety. Suddenly, she recalls the little pornographic book she and Lin Dong curled up under the blanket to read when they took a nap in the academy. In the plot, the pure white face was instantly stained with a blush, and he lowered his head shyly for a moment and did not reply to Nicholas.

{No, scratch there...}

Truth thought with a blushing face.

...

"Fuck! How dare this Divsky do it! You're playing tricks on me, and you're doing such an amazing job!?"

At the same time, on the other side, in Rasputin's home, Rasputin was pacing back and forth in the living room, screaming, full of endless resentment towards Divsky.

"Father, I have told you that Diffsky is unreliable. If you don't listen, you have to do some small tricks of bribing the companies he cooperates with to do bean curd projects instead of making big moves. Now Diffsky is more than Let's take a big step ahead, I'm afraid we won't even have time to catch up~"

Talking leisurely, a young man standing beside Rasputin was wearing an inappropriate and casual smile in front of him. His personal mood seemed to be completely different from that of the restless Rasputin.

He is an important director of the committee in Ursas today, that is, Rasputin's son Laplace, who is only one step away from the chairman of the committee. In Ursas, nepotism has long been seen in officialdom. It's a common thing, if one person is an official, almost a whole family can be an official, no matter your ability is enough or not, you can eat this royal meal, and if you are greedy and make some money, you basically don't have to worry about it for the rest of your life.

"Then tell me what to do?" Rasputin replied angrily. He was not in a hurry to kill his own son. Looking at Rasputin, he was in a bad mood.

"Isn't it very simple, father, since Divsky has done so badly to us, why don't we do worse than him?"

Following that, Laplace gave a playful sneer as he handed over the sermon.

"Then what are you going to do? Use dynamite to blow up his road? It's a good idea! Can the road be the same as our factory? When the emperor finds out, we will be finished!" Rasputin snorted coldly, thinking naturally He tried retaliation, but he couldn't think of how to retaliate in the past few days. Once the road was built, he would have no chance of turning back.

"Father, don't worry. Look, I've been preparing this for a long time. I've been waiting for this moment. It took me a month to search through many contacts. Please take a look~"

Greeted by Laplace's sneer, he took out a note and handed it to Rasputin. It seemed that such a situation had been expected long ago, and everything was expected.

And looking at it, what made Rasputin dumbfounded was that what he saw in this notebook was a series of criminal evidence that Diffsky helped many companies evade taxes. It cannot be said that there are many, but a large part of Rasputin is sure Recorded in this notebook, the meaning is self-evident.

"...You!" Pointing at Laplace, he said in a deep voice, knowing his son's intentions of course, Rasputin trembled all over.

"Father, why are you still hesitating? Isn't this an opportunity? A chance to bring down Divsky!"

It's a pity that Laplace didn't take it seriously. Seeing that his father was still hesitating, his expression became much calmer.

"No way! If you do this, wouldn't Divsky be finished? He's finished, do you think we can feel better?"

Then, as Laplace thought, he quickly closed the notebook, and Rasputin spoke worriedly, obviously disagreeing with Laplace's plan.

"Father, what else are you thinking about!"

Laplace yelled one after another, secretly cursing his father for being stubborn, for not refusing to fall out with Divsky until now.

"Think about it for yourself, Divsky has been so terrific with you, has he considered the feelings of our father and son!? He can burn your factory because of the general prosecutor today, and maybe burn it tomorrow because we know his secret. Our family! When he gains power, what else can we do except to be his dog? But do you think he will want us? Want a dog who knows all his secrets!?"

So, after earnestly persuading, Laplace's successive words impacted Rasputin's heart, making Rasputin even more hesitant.

"Father, think again, if Divsky loses His Majesty's favor, wouldn't His Majesty only favor you more!? At the same time, Divsky wants to find our criminal evidence, and it will take him half a month to find it. At that time, you have become the chief prosecutor! What are you afraid of at that time, you don’t have to be afraid of anything! You can kill Divsky with one finger! Why do you have to be so passive now.”

In particular, Laplace's words immediately reached Rasputin's mind, yes, the speaker of His Majesty the Emperor is only him and Divsky, and this is a very critical moment for power transfer, Divsky In addition, the emperor had not imposed Divsky's favor on him. It cannot be said that it is simply unrealistic to find someone to replace him as the chief prosecutor.

However, is it really that simple?Can you really become Attorney General just by removing Divsky?For some reason, Rasputin felt a strong sense of disobedience. He frowned and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Father, believe me once! I have never disappointed you, and I told you that Divsky would turn against us, but you didn't listen to me. If you don't believe me this time, our family will be ruined." ! All efforts will be taken by Diffsky, and we will lose our lives in the end!"

Laplace could undoubtedly see it, and shouted anxiously, with a little crying intentionally mixed in his speech, playing the emotional card with his father.

That's exactly what only Laplace knows. He has worked so hard to investigate so many of Diffsky's criminals. He wanted his father to be the Chief Prosecutor. Once the Chief Prosecutor was appointed, he would be the Speaker of the House of Representatives one day, and his career path would be smooth.

Maybe, if he can also be the chief inspector one day, he can also be the "emperor" of Ursas. On the surface, the emperor leads the real power, but in fact everything is up to him, and he will let him order, no matter what. If he is obedient, he will change to another one. After all, there are too many people.

Hmph, a man named Nicholas who is about his age can be, why can't he be?It's just that the blood of a royal family is special, what else is different from him! ?When he comes to be emperor, he must be better than Nicholas!At that time, he will have all women, wealth, etc., and become the most luxurious man in the world!

"..."

Rasputin, who was listening, clenched his hands into balls unconsciously. This was not only persuaded by his own son, but also aware of the grief of his own son who was not recognized by him. List.

"...Hey, if you want to do it, just do it."

In the end, due to personal factors and the influence of his own son, Rasputin made a decision to fight Divsky to the end, for his right to be the prosecutor general, and because of his feelings for Divsky. Extreme distrust.

"I will ask the chief inspector I know to show this notebook to His Majesty the Emperor later in the evening, and in the past few days, you must remember to behave well, and don't go to nightclubs every day to fool around and get caught. The speaker position must be yours, did you hear that!?"

By the way, I would like to warn Laplace with a serious face. For Laplace, Rasputin knows that his son is good at everything, and his ability to do things is not bad, but his personality is too arrogant and unrestrained. Just stay out with some women every night, too immersed in the forest of wine, food and meat.

"Yes, Father!"

Laplace, who had heard about it, immediately bowed and replied, grinning involuntarily, as if he had seen his bright future.

"I will strictly discipline myself according to what your father said, and I will never make trouble for you, father!"

It's more like seeing the day when I am about to become the 'Emperor' of Ursus!

Chapter 42 Chapter 38: Dog bites dog

At night, after being reminded of the truth, Nicholas specially sent Boris to collect all the banned books banned by the religious academy and sent them to the room to read them one by one. His expression gradually became a little dignified.

There are many banned books, divided into many categories, such as education, military affairs, culture, and books on the study of materialist dialectics, but after a rough reading, Nicholas found that these banned books basically did not have much content related to imperial power , and some were banned without even mentioning the imperial power. The reasons were almost all related to insulting him. It was obvious that there was something wrong with it.

Therefore, out of novelty, Nicholas took the time to explore the religious academy system created by his dead father, and couldn't help but notice a very interesting thing.

It turned out that under the religious academy system, the religious academy implemented a strict bureaucratic supervisory system for scholars and teachers, which was close to completely monopolizing the educational rights of the Ursus Empire. Many intellectuals like Sibia did not offend him at all. Instead, he believed that the religious institute system was no longer suitable for the times and threatened the interests of the religious institute, and was finally expelled by the religious institute.

As for why his majestic emperor has never been questioned once, Nicholas concluded that there must be a considerable chain of interests in it. Regardless of the fact that education is teaching and educating people, in fact there is a lot of oil and water.

To use the most appropriate analogy, an exam must require a lot of auxiliary books and some educational institutions. It will naturally cost money to purchase and provide services. This is the industrial chain of education layer by layer. Gula can already imagine how much money the religious academy has made. He constantly slanders the pillars of the country for his own selfishness, and even inexplicably arrogantly satirizes the soldiers. He really doesn't know what to do.

In a certain way, this is indeed to ensure the sole respect of the imperial power in education. Why the Ursus people worship him extremely, and even why there are many people who blindly worship the emperor in his original world is the problem of education. The subconscious idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor forms a kind of blind worship consciousness, and many religions also rely on this method to grow, even if there is no connotation in it at all.

However, in Nicholas's cognition, this is tantamount to destroying the foundation of the country. It is not wrong to cultivate the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor. What is wrong is that the method is too extreme. Affect rock, beer, and group fights, isn't it just too repressed? What young people always pursue is freedom, not listening to a group of old men talking nonsense every day.

"Hey…"

With a distressed sigh, Nicholas, whose father died, stretched out in distress and sat on the seat looking up at the ceiling, thinking about how to get rid of the black sheep of the religious academy.

Perhaps because of the original stone disease, the exploitation chain of the Terra world can't help but have its own characteristics. Even if the objects of exploitation are all of the same class, the interests between them are not related.

The aristocrats exploited the common people in the territory, the capitalists exploited the infected and workers all over Ursas, and the religious academy occupied the monopoly on education, and the three bribed officials to form the so-called "official-business collusion", that is to say Give him the opportunity to break through separately, so that he will not be besieged by other forces if he touches one side.

Although among them, the religious academy is the weakest.

Coincidentally, these days, the world is in need of emergency and the country needs money. Nicholas thinks it would be a good idea to take the old men of the religious institute for surgery.

By the way, he can also show the persecuted intellectuals to see if these people are willing to return to Ursus. At the same time, he directly rectifies the education of Ursas, laying a foundation for eliminating social discrimination against infected people. Regardless of how much discrimination can be reduced in this generation, as long as we have the leadership over the education of future generations, discrimination will naturally decrease gradually, and peaceful coexistence will be realized one day.

Nicholas believed that he would be able to do this.

Just when Nicholas put the forbidden book by the table and was about to turn off the light and go to sleep, Nicholas suddenly heard a 'dong dong' knocking on his door.

"Your Majesty, Vasily, the inspector outside the door, asks to see His Majesty."

It was the voice of a maid, telling him such information, and Nicholas who heard it raised an inexplicable smile, playing with a pen on the table.

It's time to come, come back sooner or later!

He waited for this day, but he couldn't wait for a long time!

"I agree." Nicholas agreed without hesitation.

"Sir, see Your Majesty."

And after Nicholas gave permission, as the door of Nicholas' room was slightly pushed open, a middle-aged man walked into Nicholas' room and knelt down on one knee and said to him, it was an Ursus Empire The Inspector General manages the issue of official corruption. If there is any problem, Augusta must have told him, so when Varys came, Nicholas didn't want to meet him in secret.

"Excuse me, tell me, what's the important thing to come to see me so late?" asked in a cold voice, Nicholas was very indifferent on the surface, but very excited in his heart.
