But it must be said that the other party's conditions are actually not bad, at least for ordinary people. Of course, this is just a condition. If it is really implemented, I am afraid it will be a different situation.
You have to know that this is the "outsider" who took away your meat!
The Hebo nobles who spoke afterwards also made similar comments:
"We also believe that Lord Mozo Klein should be given the title of Lord. At the same time, we are willing to allocate a small dock in our territory as compensation to Lord Mozo!"
After this round, almost all the major aristocratic circles in the empire had spoken.
Seeing this, Mozo also sighed. The empire has really changed. Before he dispersed the House of Representatives and even launched the purge of the aristocracy, the aristocratic circles in the House of Representatives and within the empire were still divided into seven countries, but now they are divided according to the attributes of the territory.
It seems that his great purge back then really cleansed out the remnants of the Seven Kingdoms, so that the subsequent aristocratic circles directly jumped out of the division of the Seven Kingdoms aristocracy.
Of course, this should also be due to the good governance of Her Majesty the Queen. After all, Mozo remembered that he should have killed some of the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms who were still relatively obedient. And the new nobles who were subsequently granted the old lands of the Seven Kingdoms did not form an alliance with this circle.
Well, thinking about it this way, he was right to choose Queen Isabelle.
Ah, but in this case, doesn't it mean that I can only choose among them for my territory
Obviously, the northern border is the most suitable for me.
Should I take the initiative to make concessions and ask Her Majesty the Queen to send me to the North
Mozo began to think about his next move.
At the same time, just when everyone thought the dust had settled, the Duke of Windsor stood up.
"Everyone, I have a suggestion!"
In an instant, all the nobles and even the three queens looked at the Grand Duke of Windsor.
The Grand Duke of Windsor is the only remaining Duke with real power in the Empire. He is also the current head of the Angel Family. In addition, he is the direct descendant of the Queen of the Rose Family, so even the Queen cannot ignore his words.
Originally, there were nine powerful dukes in the empire, but Cromwell, the butcher, killed seven of them, leaving only the Rose family, which had been following the royal family since the founding of the country.
Then, when the Northern Duke Cromwell was successfully suppressed by the Queen in the Second Twilight Incident, naturally only the Rose Family, the leader of the royal party, was left among the nine dukes of the empire.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Grand Duke Windsor laughed and said gently:
"I think that Lord Mozo Klein should be promoted to baron and granted a rich territory corresponding to the title! At the same time, he should also be given more preferential treatment in terms of finance to demonstrate the empire's demeanor!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar.
The nobles from all the noble circles looked at the Grand Duke in surprise, thinking, what do you mean? To confer a title is to cede our land!
But what surprised them or relieved them even more was that soon after the Duke of Windsor spoke, a new noble stood up and said:
"I agree with the Duke's proposal. I am willing to cede a suitable piece of territory within my territory!"
The nobles looked at him again, and were speechless again. It was Earl Tyron, who was also a distant relative of the Rose Family and a member of the Rose Family system.
So, the Duke is going to pay for it himself? !
After thinking about this, the nobles relaxed immediately and said yes.
There's no problem with cutting other people's flesh. The reason they were so fussy was just so they could give up less territory, right
Now that someone else has taken over the full responsibility, who would be stupid enough to say anything
Mozo fell into deep thought again. The Rose family's territory was a good place for him to go. After all, he saved their eldest daughter.
Moreover, he has a good relationship with Miss Knight. Although the future in the Rose family's territory is not as bright as in the North, it is much better than other aristocratic circles.
Furthermore, he is now a powerless person, and even if he wants to take the initiative to make concessions and go to the North, most people will not agree. Moreover, doing so would be tantamount to offending the Duke.
What does it mean when others want to help you with good intentions but you don’t appreciate it
So, I can only go to Rose's house?!
Well, that's fine. The old bastard Grand Duke of Windsor has screwed me over so badly, I'd feel unbalanced if I don't take him down!
But the truth is always so unexpected, just when Mozo was ready to go to Rose's house.
Bai Zhou, one of the three queens, suddenly stood up. Immediately, the discussion in the room stopped. Everyone stood up in a rush.
The emperor was standing, so there was no reason for his subjects to sit.
The Queen of Daylight looked around the House of Representatives, then swung her scepter and said in a stern voice:
"I am very dissatisfied with the opinions of the nobles!"
The crisp sound of the scepter hitting the ground, along with the Queen's anger, instantly spread throughout the House of Representatives.
A large number of nobles couldn't help but shiver and quickly lowered their heads.
They knew they were a bit stingy, but since the Duke had already stepped forward, why should he scold them
The title of baron and the equivalent territory are very reasonable rewards considering Mozo's age!
67 The nobles who added money and the queen who made a big move
What went wrong in this link? !
The nobles were somewhat confused. They did not think that there was something wrong with Mozo's reward, so perhaps Her Majesty the Queen felt that their prior proposal was too shabby and did not give her face
Ah, that must be it!
The nobles kept calculating the cause and effect in their minds.
But at this time, Queen Bai Zhou suddenly dropped a bombshell:
"Sir Mozo Klein, your contribution to Loran is the greatest in a hundred years! I absolutely do not agree that the title of a baron is enough. Not to mention the so-called lordship and knight! Humph!"
After saying the last two sentences, the Queen could not help but slam her scepter, shocking everyone present so much that they shuddered and shrank their heads.
At the same time, everyone and even the Duke himself thought it was a bit unbelievable. Could it be that Her Majesty the Queen wanted to make Mozo a viscount
Then everyone was shocked. Who would give up the Viscount's territory? !
Thanks to the grand opera that Mozo performed that year, the Queen had an incredible say in the empire. If the Queen wanted to nominate Mozo as a viscount, the other nobles would have no power to refuse and could only discuss who would provide the land and who would provide the money.
But they were unwilling to give even the land of a baron, let alone a viscount.
But what frightened the nobles even more was that Her Majesty the Queen actually said:
"Sir Mozo Klein, your actions saved hundreds of thousands of citizens in Cromwell. I must reward you accordingly. Therefore, I have decided to confer you the title of Viscount!"
"At the same time, in order to demonstrate the empire's demeanor and to encourage young people to work hard, I have decided to make an exception and raise the standard of your territory to the quasi-earl level!"
After these words came out, even Mozo himself began to doubt whether he was dreaming. The other nobles were instantly furious.
The viscount's territory had already made them vomit blood, and now they were given a quasi-earl's territory? !
How can I tolerate this!
Immediately, there was a noble who wanted to speak up to dissuade them, but when he looked up and saw the scepter in the hand of the Queen of Daylight, he immediately retracted his head.
This reward was so great that the nobles were very excited, but it was not enough to make them openly refute the Queen, even if it was just a small dissuasion.
However, there were still some nobles who looked at the two queens, Eternal Night and Dawn, with a unwillingness to give up. The empire was jointly ruled by three queens, although the three emperors were actually one person.
But in some cases, there will still be times when the three queens have different opinions. In this case, the queen's decree can be discussed.
Unfortunately, after they looked up, they all found with some despair that no matter it was Dawn or Eternal Night, the expressions of the two Majesties showed support for this matter.
It was when many nobles had already accepted this tragic fact that the Duke spoke again.
The difference is that this time the Duke of Windsor seems to be on the side of their nobles:
"Your Majesty, is this too much? It is true that Mo Zuoqing has made great contributions, but such a generous reward, can we discuss it again? How about changing it to a generous gift of silk and other valuables?"
This time, the Duke actually did it for Mozo's own good, because according to his political understanding, this might be a kind of warning from the Queen to the local nobles.
But if this is the case, Mozo's territory will most likely not be transferred from him. In that case, how can Mozo, who has taken away a quasi-earldom from the local nobles, gain favor with the local people
At the same time, the Duke also knew that for these wealthy nobles, giving money was far more palatable than ceding land, even if the money given was the money that the ceded land would take hundreds of years to earn back.
Preserving territory for the family seems to have always been a desire and persistence engraved in the bones of the nobles.
Following the Duke's opening words, the nobles from all the aristocratic circles began a new round of bids. As the Duke said, they were more willing to give money than to cede land.
"Your Majesty, we, the nobles of the valley, are willing to transfer a medium-sized silver mine to Mo Zuoqing!"
"We, the forest nobles, are willing to give you a 20-acre beeswax forest (one of the mid-level extraordinary materials)!"
"Your Majesties, we Highland nobles can give Lord Mo Zuo three thousand pure-blooded, top-quality war horses!"
"I, our Haitian nobles are willing to give one-tenth of the shares of a medium-sized port!"
"We, the nobles of Hebo, are willing to give Mo Zuoqing a medium-sized dock and a medium-sized fleet!"
"Your Majesty, we mountain nobles can give Mo Zuoqing a small gold mine!"
It was difficult to make the nobles spit out gold pounds, but it was definitely much easier than ceding land, because the former would hurt their hearts, while the latter would cost their lives.
Seeing this, the Duke also said quickly:
"Your Majesty, I personally think this is the best choice!"
However, the three queens who had already decided where Mozo was going stood up and shouted fiercely:
"presumptuous!"
The three queens all spoke, but they did not immediately ask the ministers to bow their heads. Instead, they were too shocked, causing the ministers to be stunned for a while before they all bowed and shouted:
"I am guilty!"
Bai Zhou, who had successfully taken control of the situation, glared at the many nobles with angry eyes. Everyone whose eyes touched shrank their heads in fear.
After looking around, Queen Bai Zhou raised her lips slightly for a moment, then quickly calmed down and said:
"This is my opinion, no need to discuss further!"
Under such circumstances, no noble dared to speak, so they all bowed and shouted again:
"Your Highness, I respectfully obey your command!"
Mozo thought with some regret:
This was indeed the House of Representatives he had originally envisioned for Isabel - the supremacy of the royal power, but to be honest, this was a bit of a deviation from the original intention of the parliamentary system.
However, Mozo also knew what kind of a mess the parliamentary system that seemed to be fair and just for all people would become in this world. So he didn't think this was a loss worth lamenting.
After all, among all the attempts or dream operas, only the elves were relatively successful. The rest, haha, are not worth mentioning.
Moreover, even the success of the elves was more due to their very peaceful racial characteristics, as well as their all-important longevity and immutability!
It is even because of this that the elves have become arrogant and self-satisfied.
But what I'm saying now is just a sudden inspiration.
Well, now let me look forward to the fact that the respected Majesty Isabel is going to put me into that aristocratic circle.
But what surprised Mozo and many nobles was that
Her Majesty the Queen actually has no intention of ceding the nobles' territories this time? !
"In order to commend Sir Mozo Klein's outstanding achievements and to inspire future young people to forge ahead, I have decided to select a rich land from the royal territory as Sir Mozo Klein's fiefdom!"
68 Sincerely Mozo!
Hearing this, Mozo, who had already given up on the North, pricked up his ears. If the territory directly under the royal family was ceded, the possibility of the North would skyrocket!
The other nobles looked at Her Majesty in disbelief. This, this means she is not going to cede our land? !
Immediately, the whole audience burst into joy! They all shouted "Long live the emperor!" "Long live the queen!"
It can be said that for the first time in a hundred years, the House of Representatives, which was full of intrigue, had such a lively atmosphere.
But as they shouted, the nobles came back to their senses from their surprise.
Why did Her Majesty cede land from the royal territory? And she also said that it was to encourage young people to continue to strive for progress? Could it be that there will be some big moves in the future? !
Are we going to go to war with our neighboring country
But didn’t the Empire just lose a quasi-angel?! Wait, could it be that the unknown big shot actually succeeded
Your Majesty, everything you did yesterday was just a cover-up? !
The nobles' thoughts began to diverge amid the roars. They felt the pressure of the coming storm, but they could not figure out where the storm would come from.
At the same time, the Queen of Daylight also raised her hands, and the cheers from the audience stopped immediately.
Queen Bai Zhou looked at Mozo in the audience with smiling eyes and said softly:
