To Four Thousand Years Later

The evening light is dim, but the light is deep. Galeazzo leaned on the golden railing with swallows or diamonds, staring at the setting sun in the distance and remained silent.

"Sir Galea.

A steady voice sounded behind him: "What are you thinking?"

"I'm watching the sunset, my lord

Hearing the sound, Galeazzo turned his head away, knelt down and said in a low voice: "The sunset is beautiful. The man in his thirties is very energetic. The man with blond hair and golden pupils shook his hand, and came to Galeazzo, squinting his eyes vigorously. He held the gear lever. His lion-like golden eyes stared at the crimson sunset for a long time, but he didn't evade at all, he just asked in a low voice: "Is it the Teutonic sunset? Teutonic at sunset? Galeazzo was stunned, and suddenly terrified. He immediately bowed down to Kreed VIII, respectfully and silently.

"Nothing to say.

Klein VIII shook his head, didn't say anything, just sighed with some disappointment: "This is not only the sunset of Teutonic, but also the Teutonic sunset.

"Times have changed, Sir Galea. I can see it, and you can too.

He turned his head, Galeazzo, who was kneeling on the ground, said peacefully: "I know, you can see it. In front of these eyes, there is nothing that I cannot discern.

Galeazzo hesitated for a moment, then replied in a low voice. Since ancient times, generations of lion-heart kings have relied on the lion's eye to discriminate evil, and they only need to constantly temper their righteous hearts to rule their own country smoothly. There are ghosts in the heart, but there is no king and no country. They are so repetitive. You can shave all disloyal courtiers. The rest are always loyal ministers. Then consider their political achievements, the sage is the best. Then the best ministers can be selected. And his people will always trust and tolerate local officials because they believe in the eyes of the Lion King and the people the Lion King believes in—at least they will never do anything evil even if they do something stupid , At most, I didn't think it through at the time, or I had some difficulties as a last resort. It can be said that the entire Teutonic is built on this kind of trust from top to bottom. This is another kind of theocratic state.

They don't believe in gods, but they have an infallible "pope" and a "bishop" who has a place to serve. 02

Tiao has always governed the country in this way. From the Holy Roman Empire founded by St. Leonardo I until hundreds of years now, Teutonic's rule of the country has never changed, but Klein VIII is different. At the very beginning, he thought that this was a faint king, a tyrant, and he was brought up to silence him, or he was worried that he would block his business. But when he came to Zurich, in the royal court, he gradually felt the deep and immeasurable thoughts of Klein VIII. He is by no means a faint king or a tyrant. He was thinking about Teutonic, and he cared more about the people of Liming.

But such a him, why did he start a foreign war a year ago? Why do you want to reuse the fake Minister of Agriculture who knows he is a spy and a villain again and again? Why not investigate and deal with his corruption. Don't seek justice for the real Minister of Agriculture?

"You're guessing again, Sir Galeazzo. Galeazzo was silent for a while, and replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, too, huh? Ha ha ha ha! "Hearing this, Kret VIII was taken aback for a moment, but smiled happily: "Well said, well said! I do have a smart head, and I don't need to be in the right place. That's why we're here talking, and that's why I want you to stay here. He stretched out his hand to hold Galeazzo's shoulder, stretched out his hand to him, and replied briefly: "Get up, Sir Galeazzo. Watch the sunset with me."

"Yes, thank you Your Majesty.

Galeazzo replied, taking Kled's hand and pulling himself to his feet.

He patted the dust on his knees, imitating the posture of Kreed VIII holding a lever, staring at the setting sun that was gradually sinking. It's just that his hands are slender and white, and they are not as big and powerful as the hands of Klein VIII. They are always firmly and firmly held tightly, as if they were resting on the keys of the piano. Noticing Galeazzo's gaze, Creat VIII turned his head slightly: "What do you think my hand should hold?"

"Is it a sword? Or a shield." Galeazzo said softly, "Your Majesty, your hand is very steady and very strong. It looks like it came off the battlefield.

"You're wrong, I've never been on a battlefield. But my hands are steady.

Creed VIII shook his head: "Because what I hold is a pen and a seal.

"That is the wealth and lives of thousands of people, the past and future of Teutonic.

Saying so, the powerful young king turned his head to stare at the setting sun that was gradually sinking.

His bright golden eyes stared straight ahead. As if to see if the setting sun will panic and flee in front of the eyes of the lion.

"You asked me last year, why should I keep those corrupt ministers and unrighteous lands," Klein VIII said suddenly, "Do you still want to know? Galea Zuojian 9 and powerful Pipeline. If Kret VIII had asked him this question a year ago, he would have been shocked and dared not answer. But now, he has realized in his heart that in front of Kret VIII, he only needs to tell the truth. Needless to say, it is useless to say.

Hearing this, Kret VIII didn't show any expression on his face, just nodded: "Then I'll tell you.

He paused before saying: "I use those foolish officials, those treacherous officials and sinners, not for anything else, but to let them block for me those people I don't want to see the most."

"The person you least want to see?

heard the words. Galeazzo hesitated. In Teutonic no one could stand against him. With a single word, he can kill someone else's official position, and with a single raise of his hand, he can kill someone else. For more than a hundred years, Kret VIII has the most control over the political situation. Will there be people he doesn't want to meet?

"You said it well before, but why are you confused now?"

Creed VIII sighed, and asked instead: You know that the Bank of Turin scraped those people's money layer by layer, so I pretended not to see it, but I don't know why I left that hagfish alone. ? Isn't that the reason? "Galea Zuobo frowned deeply.

He really couldn't figure it out. He didn't see the "Turin scam" at first, and he just relayed Leonardo's words to Creed VIII. So he sighed again at Kret VIII.

The bright golden light in his eyes remained firm forever, but dimmed a little: "He looked at Galeazzo and shook his head: "It's not your fault. You can't see it because you're not in my position. Hearing this, Galeazzo was startled—the crackling cold light seemed to rise from the bottom of his spine, and was about to hit the back of his head straight!

Before he said "dare not", Kreed VIII directly revealed the answer: I can't collect money from the people, because it is extortionate. Those people turned their backs, and what they turned against was Teutonic, the traditions and creeds of the past five years. But I can copy those idiots at any time - if I kill their whole family, only people will applaud.

"Placing this money in their hands is no different from mine. Now that Teutonic is short of money, it is time for them to pay their debts.

He looked at the terrified Galeazzo, and asked, "Then do you know why Teutonic is short of money?" Kreit VIII just stared at him: Then tell me, why did I break up this war? ? "
