Wang’s teacher, they think it’s impossible just by thinking about it. In case their pursuit of failure is also exposed to rumors such as entanglement, even if Wang does not blame, they themselves will feel guilty and want to commit suicide.

After the problem of the Demon Eye was solved, Lucifer personally took Scati to the palace. Inside the palace, they chatted idly while also asking Scati to choose the right rest palace.

They walked together for a long time, and finally Scati took a fancy to the courtyard of one of the deepest parts of the palace, and she liked the quietness here. Originally, Lucifer wanted to help her clean up, but after a while, he realized that there was no need for that.

Because with the spread of ice crystals at Scati’s feet, the palace in front of him had turned into an ice palace, and Scati nodded with satisfaction and entered it. Lucifer and Artoria also followed, but after walking around, they found that there was actually no need for them to do it.

After finally explaining some related things, Lucifer left here. Back at his palace, Lucifer was preparing to rest for a while and relax. He subconsciously wanted to hug his exclusive pillow, but suddenly found that it seemed like it was still morning.

During the day, it was official time, and Knight Ji fulfilled his duties very dutifully, guarding the safety of the palace, and now he probably went out on patrol. This inevitably made Lucifer feel a little regretful.

There isn’t much to deal with today, so are you going to see Joan of Arc? By the way, take Isabella over and teach them to read?

Just as Lucifer was thinking this, the door to the room was opened. Semiramis walked in. She also had a document in her hand.

“Are your eyes all right? This pair of glasses has a good taste and suits you well. ”

Just sat down, and she said the problem that Lucifer had before. This somewhat surprised Lucifer, because only a few people knew about it before. A few of them obviously wouldn’t say anything about it, which meant that Semiramis saw the problem in Lucifer in his own way.

“You’ve actually discovered my eye problem! Mira, are you also a legendary magic master? Lucifer was a little surprised.

Before Semiramis had always regarded himself as a duchess, Lucifer didn’t think much about it. Now it seems that she has always been hidden?

“I’m not a magician, I’m a schemer. I only know ‘a little’ about magic. Semiramis smiled slightly, not acknowledging his magical strength.

And this also made Lucifer more and more curious. He couldn’t help but think of a joke circulating on the Internet in his previous life: Semiramis who can do a little magic?

“To satisfy my curiosity, what is the ‘point’ in your mouth?”

“To know a little is to know a little is to know a little, that is, literally, no. Don’t expect too much from my magic, King. When it comes to magic, shouldn’t you ask your own teacher? Or do you not ask, master! ”

Speaking of this, Samirami handed the document in his hand to Lucifer. Her tone was mostly teasing. This is also the communicator when they discuss things in private. It has become a habit to laugh at each other.

Faced with the ridicule of the Prime Minister in front of him, Lucifer felt a little unbearable on his face. This title comes out of someone else’s mouth, as if it is really shameful.

“Ahem! Recent changes in France? “He symbolically took the initiative to put the topic on the paper.

But the more I look at it, the more I feel that something is wrong.

“Because of the impact of the previous defeat, coupled with the war reparations you proposed, France has been internally unstable in the past two years. Originally, the taxes in France were high enough, but now the tax increase has caused several rebellions, and Pepin the Short thought of this method in order to quickly pacify the country. Semiramis spoke quietly about France’s internal problems.

The previous defeat made France pay a huge amount of war money, and the state naturally had to recover this money from somewhere else. Of course, there were many ways to recover it, such as raiding the homes of some offending nobles, which Pepin had already done.

Unfortunately, the effect was not very satisfactory, and most of the money went into the pockets of the royal family rather than the treasury. In order to make up for this part of the deficit, he chose the simplest and clearest method. Tax Plus!

This practice will have the most visible effect in a short period of time, but the impact may not be eliminated for several years. After all, for a country with an aristocratic system, raising taxes may be a word of the king, but reducing taxes is to face the entire aristocratic system.

Naturally, Pepin the Short, his approach aroused the dissatisfaction of the lower classes, and many people who could not survive directly chose to rebel. Not surprisingly, these people must have been suppressed in the end, but this also made the already shaky domestic situation even more shaken.

In order to calm the current turmoil, Pepin the Short came up with another trick. That is…

“Huh? What the hell is this operation? Divide part of the territory to form a religious sphere? Also declared the church the state religion of France? Isn’t Pepin the Shorty playing like this worried that theocracy will be above royal power in the future? Lucifer let go of the document and felt that the brain of the goods on the other side was broken.

For a country, there is only so much power. Once the nobles gained more power, the king reduced his power. Similarly, once the church has some power, it means that some power elsewhere will be reduced. From now on, Pepin’s actions will undoubtedly weaken his royal power.

It may not be visible in a short time, but it will definitely not end up in time. This is also the strange thing about Lucifer. His current practice in Britain is to centralize power, while the other side is dividing power?

What the heck? Is this even a domestic problem solved, so that it has to turn to the church? I hadn’t heard of him being a devout believer before. Or was he lame by those who were in the church?

In a previous life, as a person who had heard the chronicles of the world, Lucifer could naturally predict the consequences of theocracy, and at the same time understood what to do in this era, which is the most likely way to make Britain stronger.

So when he saw this, he subconsciously thought that Pepin’s brain was broken. But if you think about it, maybe it’s just because the other party is subject to the times, or believes in himself too much.

“Maybe he wants to follow the same path as Ramses II, the sun king of [Esia], and the unity of church and state. Put kingship and divine power in your hands. Even if you are as wise as you, you cannot deny that the combination of royal power and divine power will give birth to extraordinary power. Especially now, when France is in turmoil, the more desperate it is, the more people yearn for a miracle or faith. Not only that, but Pepin’s approach undoubtedly pulled the church to his side. It can be said that it is, killing three birds with one stone. Semiramis continued to analyze Pepin’s approach. _
