Chapter 337 Twin Cities (2)
Phyllis insisted: "Ensure everyone's right to survive is the foundation of all civilizations."
Danica said coldly: "The existence of civilization itself is not natural. If a civilization is regarded as a creature, she also needs to live with all her might. A weak civilization has no right to survive, which has been widely recognized."
Phyllis has never gained much advantage in this debate, but she still stubbornly defends her point of view: "According to your opinion, everyone in the Twin Cities needs to work hard to survive?"
"This doesn't need to be, they are lucky." Danica smiled and said proudly, "As the Twin Cities, including the queen of the Gemini Kingdom in the future, I will give them the right to survive! Be loyal to me, I will guarantee that they can enjoy a life of food and clothing!"
"You gave their right to survive?" Phyllis said disgustedly, "This is a disgusting theory."
"It doesn't matter whether it's disgusting or not, it's fine." Danica didn't care. The so-called usefulness means that she wants to use this theory to strengthen her absolute dominance over the city.
"Will anyone believe it?" Phyllis said suspiciously.
"Don't worry, they will accept this theory." Danica was very confident. "There are too many strange subjective ideas in history, and my theory is nothing."
In some places in the human race, becoming a god prostitute is a glorious thing, as if no matter what dirty behavior is added to the word "for the God of Light". The other extreme is that being sneaked into the body, or even just a part of the body - such as arms, or something - will marry the other party, even if the girl is a noble lady, while the man is a gangster and a gangster. It is common for absurd theories to become the subject of society in history. In Danica's opinion, this theory is really nothing, and to a certain extent, it is indeed a fact. It is her queen who protects the people of the entire city, so they should listen to their own words.
"There are always people who won't be willing to be your slave." Phyllis muttered. This sentence is already a bit quarrel, but she is really unwilling to lose every time she debates.
Danica chuckled and said, "Phyris, you should know that the ancient meaning of the word 'sen' is slave, but now, only those who have political rights are qualified to call the king "sen". Ordinary civilians cannot be called this 'sen'! So you don't have to worry, most people will be willing. As for those unwilling people, I will take back the right to survive."
"massacre?"
"No, it's cleaning." Danica corrected a mistake by Philis. "Massacre is an act of indiscriminate and wanton killing, while cleaning is a purification of the dregs of society. Massacre will be opposed by everyone, but cleaning is different and everyone will support it."
"But what social scum is is up to you," Phyllis said sarcastically.
"It is determined by the subjective thoughts of this society."
After a moment of silence, Phyllis sighed: "Why do you do this?"
Danica said: "Didn't we talk about it before? If I own a country, I would concentrate all the rights of the entire country in my own hands, completely and completely in my own hands."
Phyllis said sincerely: "Do you need some advice? Believe me, the Elf Royal Court has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, has experienced it, and has seen a lot. This extremely centralized political structure is not conducive to the long-term stability of a country. At most, it will be more stable when you rule, once you leave..."
"Once I leave, whether it's death or breaking through this world..." Danica smiled a cruel smile on her lips, "The life and death of this kingdom is nothing to do with me. I just need to ensure that this country can be obedient when I am in power."
Phyllis was stunned, then could only smile bitterly: "You will be scolded to death in history books."
Danica smiled and said, "Maybe, but no one dares to scold me in front of me. Besides, I really may not be scolded... Don't shake your head first, tell me who will scold me in history books?"
Phyllis thought for a while and said, "Those nobles, according to your phalanx of governing the country, the entire class of nobles will be eradicated, and they are most likely unwilling to give up. This mentality can easily make them the 'social dregs' you speak of and then be cleaned up. Moreover, the aristocrats can speak in this world." How can ordinary civilians speak out without knowing one of the big words? The knowledge in this world is not only those knowledge that can bring powerful power, but also ordinary knowledge is monopolized in the hands of the nobles.
"But what if it was not only the nobles who spoke in this world, but not even those nobles anymore?" Danica said with a smile.
"You want to..."
Danica said: "After eliminating the aristocratic class, I will support a new class, bureaucratic class. They are the beneficiaries of this social structure change, and the new masters of knowledge. They will speak for me. In the Gemini Kingdom, there will be no more nobles who have been passed down for thousands of years, have strong political rights and vast fiefs, but only scholarly families who have loyalty to Her Majesty the Queen for generations."
After hearing Danica's words, Phyllis didn't know what she felt. After all, she was the kind of noble family with strong political rights. What kind of country would her friend build!
"But it might be a little trouble at the beginning." Danica added
"You will also be in trouble?" Phyllis replied, but asked, "What's the trouble?"
Danica said: "In this world, nobility is not only officials, scholars, merchants, but also part of middle and low-level professions. It is not difficult to eradicate the aristocratic class. After all, the Twin Cities are just a city, but after losing middle and low-level professions, there will be big problems in national defense."
A healthy army requires a large number of middle-level professionals as middle-level officers. Only such an army can maintain the safety of the Twin Cities. Danica did not forget that this is a chaotic central area. Those bandits who hide in the valley do not care about the middle council. If they cannot withstand their impact, Danica will not be able to sit steadily. There are also lawless mercenaries, if they do not have the ability to suppress them, the mercenaries will rebel.
"This is indeed a problem," said Phyllis. "If you completely eradicate the aristocratic class, the military potential of the entire Twin Cities will collapse. It would be best if you can go through it step by step. Don't be so rushing. You can wait until you cultivate the bureaucratic class before talking about it."
"Impossible." Danica directly rejected Phyllis' proposal, "The best opportunity now is that those nobles have too deep foundation in this city. This time it is equivalent to caught them off guard. Once they are relieved, they don't know what to do." If they really want to put the knife around their necks, those nobles will also fight desperately. What should we do then? Launch a civil war in this city? Twin Cities can't withstand such torture. It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the entire aristocratic class simply.
"What do you think you should do?"
"I need to use external forces." Danica said to Phyllis, "I want to second two hundred intermediate professionals from you."
"This..." Philis was a little hesitant. Two hundred intermediate professions are not a small number. She also has to bear considerable political pressure to transfer so many intermediate professions to the Twin Cities. Philis doesn't like the current stalemate, but she doesn't want to see her defeated.
Seeing that Philis was a little embarrassed, Danica added: "You are the queen of the Gemini Kingdom after all, and the entry of two hundred elves is also conducive to building a good relationship between the Gemini Kingdom and you, the princess of the Elf Court." This is the exchange condition offered by Danica. The Gemini Kingdom will in fact completely turn towards the Elf Court, and to be precise, turn towards Philis Yuelan.
Phyllis weighed the matter in his heart, and suddenly thought of a question: "Are you afraid of attracting revenge from the Holy See in this way?"
Although the human race is a bit disintegrating now, it looks like a mess of sand, at least no one has publicly rebelled against the Holy See of Light. Even in the three major magic academies, everyone's catchphrase is "praise the Holy See". If Danica's Gemini Kingdom really enlists to the Elf Court, it will be the first human race kingdom to truly break away from the Holy See of Light and join the Elf Court power.
"No," said Danica, "Now our city-state is called the Gemini Kingdom. You are one of the kings. There will be no problem with some elves joining you."
Phyllis said hesitantly: "I need to think about it, this matter is too wide."
Danica nodded and said, "No problem, this matter is not very urgent."
The two were chatting, and Catherine walked in with a piece of paper, greeted Phyllis, handed the paper to Danica, and said, "Your Majesty, this is the list of the last few days."
Since Danica owned this city and became the king of the Gemini Kingdom, Catherine has called her Her Majesty the Queen. When facing Philes, she has always called her Princess, all for the sake of identity. This is different from Aishi. Aishi calls Danica "master" and Philes "Miss Yuelan". Compared to Catherine, Aishi's name is closer.
Danica took it over and looked at it, ticked it with a few strokes, and then returned it to Catherine.
After Catherine left, Phyllis asked curiously: "What's the list?" Danica did not avoid it at all, and directly spread the paper on the table, so Phyllis also saw it, with the names of several people written on it, and there were some notes behind it. Danica checked a few and then gave it to Catherine.
Danica explained: "Those guys have been harassing the residents of the Twin Cities, and I don't care about the nobles, but some people are very important to the construction of this city, so I need to arrange for Catherine to protect it."
"They give Katherine face so much?"
Danica said: "When they first arrived, Catherine had a duel with several of them and killed two of them, which was also recognized by them."
Phyllis smiled and said, "Didn't you think you could kill a few of them and establish your own power?"
Danica shook her head and said, "No need, I don't need to get their recognition."
It was already late at this time. Danica and Phyllis chatted for a while, and Aishi came over and said that supper was ready.
When she got up to eat, Phyllis remembered something: "Danica, what's the matter with the girl in the cage on the street?"
Danica said as she walked, "That, I heard that it was the solution they thought of. It was said that it had a deterrent effect, and the effect was quite obvious. Now the girls in the city don't dare to go out if they have nothing to do."
Phyllis frowned and said, "That's too embarrassing the nobles' demeanor, right? Even if you don't care about the nobles' face, you should think about the 'landscape' all over the streets. The face of your city lord looks good. This is a commercial city with a large number of foreign populations."
Danica stopped, thought for a while and said, "That's right. I just hoped to use this method to attack the prestige of those nobles, but I didn't consider that this would damage my own face."
Phyllis asked, "Why are you trying to attack the nobles' prestige?"
Danica explained: "I plan to choose people from the civilian class to manage the city, but because of the deep-rooted concept, which civilian dares to manage the nobles now? I need to let those civilians know that the so-called noble nobles are no big deal and can also be knocked down to the ground. This is called emancipation of the mind."
Phyllis gave her a blank look and said, "Are you afraid that they will learn from it? I think you, the king, are no big deal?"
Danica said lightly: "Blood will tell them that this is a wrong idea." After saying this bloody sentence, Danica ordered Ai Xue who was following him: "Appoint it and kill those girls."
"Yes, master." Ai Xue responded and quickly left.
Phyllis frowned slightly, but said nothing. She cared about the dignity of the nobles, not how kind-hearted she was. Compared to being locked in a cage and being visited by someone, she would rather those noble girls die.
Danica's dinner for chewing Philis was very rich. She fully considered Philis' taste and deliberately prepared many elves dishes. Since then, Philis and Philis have lived here. Philis had written to tell her that she would stay in Twin Cities for a while to relax. But she probably didn't expect that she would not relax at all after coming here.
