- #208 - Chapter 209 Embarrassed Zelen
Zelen: “Let me tell you, Qin, the intelligence sent by your father did not write the wrong number, right? What was the reason for those rebels to come up with such a heavy machine gun that they could hardly carry? And the rate of fire was so low that every It shoots less than 400 rounds per minute, and it uses a bullet plate… If you ask me, they might as well use a magazine to feed the ammunition, which is the same as a rifle.
Qin: “Their skills are basically stolen or robbed. The units of weights and measures alone are enough for them to learn for a while.”
Zelen: “Wait? I can understand the stealing technology. After all, how much equipment can these rebels have? But weights and measures? The Takagi Kingdom doesn’t even teach this?”
Qin: “No. The successive kings of the Takagi Kingdom did not allow the people below to receive education. They also explicitly required that only designated persons, especially male family members of the bureaucratic aristocracy, have the right to receive education.”
Zelen: “Raising pigs.”
Qin: “After all, not every monarch is like you and will take the initiative to care about the education of female people.”
Regarding Qin’s evaluation, Zelen himself shook his head. Such a thing is not worthy of being a reason to praise him, and even in Zelen’s own eyes, it is a kind of failure.
He does not need a country whose people are ignorant, stupid and barbaric. This will only destroy a country. In particular, as an archipelago empire, the Krorod Empire was inherently in danger of being easily divided. Therefore, education, both men and women, must start from childhood.
Zelen: “I’m not the first emperor to raise this matter. At least I was more than ten years old, or the emperors dozens of times ago were very concerned about it. Moreover, Qin, your father also gave me some fax photos. Although the above are all Black and white picture, but is the king of Takagi Kingdom mentally ill? He directly ordered all the female people on the southern border to be arrested for public interrogation, and even whipped each one…”
Looking at the photo in his hand, Zelen felt pity for every black-haired kobold woman who was hung up and whipped. And this is stripping off clothes and publicly flogging them…
King Jungo didn’t want to let these women rebel collectively, right?
Nowadays, there are various resistance organizations in the southern region of Takagi Kingdom and they are in need of all kinds of talents to work for them. You, King Shungo, are whipping them out without thinking about anything. Even if these women who were whipped did not know the resistance at all, or even who was a member of the resistance or worked for the resistance, they would definitely join the resistance collectively to avoid being whipped again. arrival.
Qin: “I can only say that they…sooner or later will be like us, preparing themselves with guns and ammunition anytime and anywhere just in case.”
Zelen: “Do you think it’s possible?”
Jean: “The men around them don’t give them easy access to guns and ammunition.”
Zelen: “So this is a very serious conflict. Indeed, the Krolod Empire is also a country where men and women are unequal. As a male and an emperor with ten wives, it is difficult for me to take the initiative to talk about them. But as long as I can, I will do my best to help you. But in other aspects, I can’t continue to help you. After all, you and Paula are the only two of you. They already represent the two major interest groups of the Crurod Empire.”
Jean: “Uh.”
Zelen: “In short, I won’t say too much, and I don’t want trouble to come out of my mouth. You know the reason.”
Qin: “I understand.”
Zelen: “Actually, according to tradition, I, His Majesty, the Emperor, made a mistake by not marrying a widow.”
Qin: “Pfft… Felicity is a widow, but her originally scheduled husband didn’t come back from the first battle, so this gives you an advantage.”
Zelen: “What? No…it doesn’t mean that you can only legally get married when you are 16…”
Qin: “We nobles have one thing, which you know very well, and we are married with our fingertips. The higher the status of the nobles, the more they like this kind of thing. But after the emergence of the Pa-O Republic, we These nobles have temporarily suspended the matter of fingertip marriage and the forced designation of which divorced men and women will marry whom. “
Zelen: “But it’s still very frequent in private?”
Qin: “So, just enjoy it. Our ten red flowers will definitely stay on the big bed as a sign of your complete conquest of us. Of course, don’t touch me now.”
Zelen: “I know. Anyway, just work hard at Lymington Arms Company.”
Qin: “Yes.”
Zelen looked at the back of Qin who went back to the company’s workshop to continue working. He felt helpless for being a guy doing nothing in the boss’s room.
The biggest reason why he married so many wives was to balance the distribution of interests among all parties in the empire. Therefore, he knew in his heart that it was simply impossible to have freedom of marriage and love while being an emperor.
What’s more, all the emperors of the Crurod Empire have a tradition, that is, they must marry widows as one of their wives and concubines.
Therefore, Zelen is the type who breaks the rules. But as an emperor who basically delegated political affairs to the Congress, he actually made the Krorod Empire a republican empire.
It’s just that compared to the Orchid Republic, the Krurod Empire just has a mask called the Emperor.
Anyway… Then again, the widows of the Crurod Empire are a sought-after resource. Zelen himself probably didn’t even say a word, and the people below probably wouldn’t leave any words for him.
no way.
In the Crurod Empire, widows, especially young widows who have given birth to children, not only have relevant legal provisions prohibiting widowhood and must remarry as soon as possible, but more importantly, if many men want their families to prosper, then widows There is certainly no escape.
Why?
Women who have given birth are more likely to go on to produce healthy offspring.
It’s that simple.
Zelen himself sometimes finds this funny. Although the Krorod Empire is obviously a country where men are superior to women, compared to the Takagi Kingdom, which directly flogs women in public and does not regard female people as citizens at all, no, contempt, Zelen dares to say that Krorod The Empire is definitely paradise. Therefore, in order to create a paradise for the Japanese and Mai people, Zelen needs the invading pig-headed people and other damn invaders to die quickly.
The current Krolod Empire has managed to survive the food crisis with great difficulty, and there are still many things to do next.
So when the time came under the rule of night, Zelena continued to secretly visit various facilities in the city to find out many of the people’s thoughts. For this reason, he continued to sit at his desk and continued to write relevant articles for newspaper submission.
Paula: “He…”
Jane: “After he went to Lymington Arms Company today, he deliberately disguised himself and walked to many places. So, Paula, don’t look for him.”
Paula: “It seems that he still hasn’t forgotten his identity.”
Jane: “Isn’t that bad? At least he didn’t write his name in any of the articles he published in the newspaper.”
Paula: “Whose name is he writing? Create a pen name yourself?”
Jane: “His father’s name.”
Paula: “What’s the difference between this and using his own name? People who know the royal family will immediately know who is contributing, right?”
Jane: “But how many people now know the names of the royal family members? Especially the names of the previous royal family members. This is not a professional historian, so I guess not many people know it.”
Paula: “Okay. Anyway, I definitely don’t believe that the editor who received the article doesn’t know who wrote the article for the newspaper.”
Jane: “You don’t care what he writes?”
Paula: “How influential can what he writes have? And he didn’t use his real name to publish the article. At most, it’s just a family opinion, and everyone can just listen. What’s more, simply publishing an article in a newspaper will not do anything to the public. What role do we have?”
Jane: “Because you have the ability to shut down the newspaper immediately?”
Paula: “Absolutely. Moreover, as long as you are willing, you also have the ability to make every member of the newspaper disappear immediately, and they will never continue to exist.”
