Wandering Knight Start: I have a simple data panel

Just after the New Year, the Earl and his wife took their son to participate in various activities to get close to the people.

This is a tradition that has continued for ten years.

Although Plan City is one of the most prosperous cities in the world, its rapid development has also brought many problems, such as the gap between the rich and the poor.

Poor people are inevitable, and various natural and man-made disasters will also bring a lot of poor people.

In the past, such lower-class people died and died, and no one died one day.

But at least in the Northern Principality, the Duke and his wife would ask about similar things every year, so that there would not be large-scale deaths.

Slums, dilapidated streets, and stinking gutters, even if officials sent people to clean them in advance, they could not cover up all traces.

When the Duke and his wife's carriage arrived here, a group of internal guards began to be on alert in advance, and reporters from various official newspapers gathered.

"Let's start from here."

Derek took a deep breath, and the rotten smell made his stomach churn faintly.

He knew that the officials below had cleaned it in advance, but the floor under his feet was bumpy, and the stench soaked in the gutter could not be washed away.

Compared with the previous life, at least the river channel was covered with marble and the action of redecorating it one day in advance was not available.

The two little guys looked around curiously, and the unfamiliar and harsh environment made them quieter.

The official in charge of this area had cold sweat on his forehead and took all the blame on himself: "Duke, it's all our fault that we failed to settle the citizens."

"No, it's my fault. I can't let everyone live a good life." Derek held Qin's hand in front of everyone: "You two brothers must remember what this world looks like."

There are more reasons that children can't understand, but at least let them see the whole world, so that there will be no jokes about why not eat meat.

Then, the Duke and his wife began to send food and oil to poor families.

This year's people-friendly activities have gone a step further, and extreme examples have been selected.

Tiona couldn't stand it. If it weren't for Derek in front, she would have left long ago.

Inside the house, Derek held the hand of the bedridden old man without disdain and listened to his complaints.

Continuously listening, no promises made.

One family after another, a day passed like this.

At first, everyone thought it was just a show, but when the show was done to this extent, it was hard to tell the truth from the false.

Some of the suggestions heard were reasonable and some were unreasonable. Derek did not express any opinion, but he would continue to follow up and solve them.

Before the end, all the accompanying personnel were gathered together to listen to the Duke's lecture.

"I know that many people are eager to change the country's name recently, but for us grassroots officials, we should pay more attention to the voices of the common people. This country does not belong to me or you, but to everyone.

I will watch you, and I will remember all your efforts.

..."

The next day, the newspaper began a series of reports.

The nobles in this world will also show their people-friendly side to win people's hearts.

But Derek is undoubtedly the one who did the most detailed work, coupled with overwhelming publicity, to create the personality of the Duke's family.

And this is also a kind of education, so as not to raise a bunch of idiots.

This is still the first step. Next, go to the fields to farm and visit various places as usual.

In the two months after the New Year, the Duke's family frequently appeared in the headlines of newspapers, and the situation of various classes in the country was appropriately introduced.

This move worked very well. With the promotion of newspapers, the reputation of the Duke's family has reached its peak.

At the same time, the process of changing the country's name is also continuing.

Archbishop John also left the church again and came to Plan City.

He has been running back and forth in recent years, traveling between churches and monasteries in various places, assisting the unification of national religious ideas and stabilizing the religious situation.

This kind of work is equivalent to struggling in a field where no credit can be seen.

But for Archbishop John, it is very happy.

Because he is too busy, he has little time to come to Plan City.

But every time he comes, he will go to Hadley University to have a look.

At the entrance of the university, it is not the Duke's sculpture, but his.

The bronze sculpture is well protected and there are not many traces.

Archbishop John stopped to watch. Everyone has needs. There are no material needs, but spiritual needs.

After watching for a while, he stepped into Hadley University.

The university, which is expanding every year, is already extremely large.

Archbishop John can't even understand what is being taught in the various colleges inside.

But he is still happy.

After visiting the seminary, Archbishop John left with satisfaction.

He came here to change the name of the country.

After submitting the request for an audience, Archbishop John soon met Derek.

The newspaper on the table happened to be a photo of the Duke's family in the field, and Archbishop John had read all the recent newspapers.

Looking at Derek again, his face was much more mature, and his stubble was already blue.

Compared with ten years ago, the years have not left too many traces.

"Duke!"

"Archbishop John, I haven't seen you for a long time."

The two sat down, and their relationship was more special than that of others.

Derek rarely smoked and maintained a certain respect.

Archbishop John was a selfless person, an admirable person, and Derek also recognized him.

After the two chatted for a few words, Archbishop John explained his purpose: "I heard that you are going to become the emperor, and I came to send you my blessings.

And I have an idea, you are the lord of the mortal world and the incarnation of the divine, why don’t you wear two crowns? "

Derek seemed to understand what he meant and asked seriously: "You mean to let me wear the papal crown again?"

"Yes, divine power and royal power are unified. You are the most noble person on earth, the master who rules everything. This is what should be done."

Archbishop John truly felt that Derek should rule everything on earth.

In these years, he had the most confidence in Derek, believing that other kingdoms would end sooner or later.

From a consequentialist perspective, Archbishop John’s guess is correct.

Now, of course, everything that belongs to God must be attributed to Derek, and by the way, he can complete the ideological unification of religion.

This is a good thing.

Derek understood that there were benefits to this.

There are also hidden dangers. The pope's position has been reduced long ago, and now there is only the pope.

Now, do you want to restore divine power?

He thought for a while, at least he wasn't afraid.

But can Qin handle it?

After thinking for a moment, Derek decided to accept.

Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. I have never seen a policy that can last for thousands of years. It mainly depends on people.

It's best if you can defend it. If you can't defend it, it won't be less troublesome.

Therefore, he agreed with Archbishop John's idea.

"Then we will be crowned together. I will be the unique emperor." Derek did not hide his ambition at all.

Archbishop John didn’t think it was ambition, he was clearly complying with destiny.
