Blackstone Code Chapter 1259: Everyone has to sacrifice
Early the next morning, everything that people had guessed appeared in the newspapers.
It's also very interesting for the newspapers that dared to report the news to report on this matter.
Lynch bought all the morning newspapers issued by the imperial capital. Most of these morning newspapers reported the fight between nobles in the Privy Council, and also described in detail why the two sides fought and to what extent.
It is surprising that there were some reporters hiding outside the Privy Council at that time, and they took pictures of the time with the cameras in their hands, and these pictures also became the front page of the newspaper.
Some of them are pictures of nobles injured. Kipling curled up on the ground and was kicked by Lynch and the little earl. It has also become a photo that exists in various newspapers.
Lynch looked at himself in the photo and was really handsome, as handsome as ever, even when fighting.
The news that should not appear in the newspapers is so unabashedly leaked by the major newspapers, there must be something hidden behind it!
Maybe it's... a conspiracy.
One of the most basic elements of authority is a sense of distance. If this sense of distance is missing, it will make authority less authoritative.
For example, people have considerable respect for the authority of law enforcement, but lack sufficient respect for their friends, even if their friends are also law enforcement.
That's what distance brings.
Distance does not refer to the distance between people, so a person has a sense of distance from too many things in this world.
The "distance" mentioned here is actually the behavior.
When a wolf sees a dog that looks a lot like a wolf eating shit, it must have a sense of distance, and it knows it's definitely not a wolf.
The reverse is also true. When people find that nobles actually fight because of some contradictions and their heads are broken, the sense of distance and mystery disappears.
Ah, it turns out that the nobles are similar to us ordinary people, and there is no difference!
Here's what these reports bring!
"Has there been any similar reports before?" Lynch asked casually while eating breakfast.
He spent the night at the little earl's manor last night. The main reason was that the little earl was too obsessed with him and always wanted to say something. The child was too excited.
After being bullied for so many years, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. In his world, Lynch is the one who supports the world, great and radiant!
The little earl ate his breakfast with a big mouthful. Gavra's breakfast was a little more special than the federal breakfast. All kinds of fish and cheese became a must-have item on the table.
There are also various side dishes, which are not as simple as the common breakfast in the Federation.
Lynch can see cooked fish, raw fish, pickles and all kinds of things on the table.
The little earl likes to squeeze some lemon juice on a kind of raw fish, and then put the meal bag in his mouth, watching him enjoy it, as if he ate something special.
What a young man who has never seen the world!
Lynch's question got both the former countess and the little earl thinking about it, and both finally shook their heads.
The former countess has been in contact with the nobility longer than the little earl, and she knows some things better here.
"Before aristocratic scandals rarely appeared in the newspapers, only the kind of very special scandals..." She thought for a while, and told Lynch about some of the things that had happened.
From these incidents, Lynch found that the exposure of each aristocratic scandal seemed to have a very clear purpose.
Except for a few that were exposed, the other scandals were basically digested in the Privy Council.
Also, Gefra is a power-based country. What can be reported and what can't be reported is not the publisher's final say.
This is different from the Commonwealth. If people can find out that the President's scandal may send the President to the front page of the newspaper overnight, this is the justice that the Commonwealth society where the press pretends to be free and everyone pretends to be equal gives the federal people.
The president makes mistakes, and he will be punished like us, so in the federal government, from a city councillor to the president will not let the people feel any distance, and they even dare to criticize some political parties in front of these people How naive the idea is.
Someone else took the president to court!
But in Gefra, these are not allowed. Nobles are nobles. Even if nobles make mistakes, it is their own business. Ordinary people don't need to know what happened, and there is no need to know the result.
So these overwhelming reports immediately gave Lynch the idea that someone was behind these things.
"Is there something wrong with these reports?" After the little earl swallowed the food in his mouth, he finally discovered these anomalies.
The mother and son at the table looked at Lynch. Lynch was playing a very important role. He nodded slightly and picked up a newspaper, "I heard that the Privy Council has some concerns about the next rule after the overthrow of the royal family. My own thoughts..."
The former countess was stunned for a moment. She looked at Lynch, "Do you need to warm up the soup?"
She's asking if she needs to get out of the way.
The status of women in Gafra is very low, much lower than that of women in the Commonwealth. Of course, when men talk about important things, women should be properly avoided.
Traditional thinking is that women can't tell what's important and what's not, and society's stereotyped prejudice against women's vanity and ostentation means that women are often the key to leaks.
So the former countess consciously planned to leave, but Lynch stopped her.
He's from the Commonwealth, a place where the feminist movement is highly developed!
"Thank you, but no need." He continued to bring the topic back to the previous question, "The nobles want to firmly rule the country, which is exactly contrary to our overthrow of the royal family."
"What we need is a more enlightened governing body that can keep up with the world, have sufficient leadership, and lead the country to new glory."
"But the aristocracy obviously does not belong to this category. Once the class is solidified and the power is solidified, it will bring absolute corruption and backwardness."
"Some people should have seen this, so they want to break the people's 'dependence' on the nobility. When people no longer think that nobility is unsurpassable, people will take the initiative to take more responsibility."
"Those citizens of the Empire, commoners!"
Lynch's words had so many political elements that both the former countess and the little earl fell into their thoughts.
Lynch hesitantly picked up the meal bag, tore some, grabbed some raw and marinated fish, sandwiched it together, and took a bite.
Just a sip.
To be honest, the taste is not very good. This kind of fish may have no fishy smell itself, or the fishy smell is covered by the spices during the raw marinating process, and there is actually no special fishy smell.
It's like eating a piece of fat that's cooled a little bit, so average.
After waiting for about two minutes, the former countess has recovered.
Through eye contact, Lynch knew she had understood what she meant.
The little earl was a little late, but he almost figured it out. His expression was very subtle, "It's not just the royal family who will be demolished this time..."
Lynch gave him a very positive response, "Yes, even the nobles will be pushed down from the altar, maybe we will soon usher in a system where nobles and commoners govern together!"
As a nobleman, the little earl's mentality is slightly less comfortable, he is a nobleman and proud of his status as a nobleman.
In the past, in order to support this identity and the dignity of a nobleman, he has endured a weight that he should not bear at his age.
Now all of a sudden, he was a little dazed at this moment when he heard Lynch say that the nobles may also suffer a terrible blow.
This is what happens when people lose some kind of support.
Fortunately, he is young and recovers quickly.
"Then...the privilege in our hands..."
Lynch shook his head, "You're mistaken a little bit. Privileges are not innately possessed by nobles. They are given to nobles by the royal family."
"When the royal family becomes a mascot, the privileges in the hands of the nobles will naturally be reclaimed, and the nobles will gradually fade out of the political arena."
“More ordinary people will set foot in the future, and maybe the prime minister will eventually come from ordinary people.”
"But if you are capable enough to be recognized by people, I believe you still have a chance."
Lynch said with a smile, "This is just an extreme idea. It may be a very long process. For now, Gavra is still controlled by the nobles."
"It takes a lot of time to change, and it can't be done in a year or two."
"But...", he threw the newspaper in his hand back on the table, "dilute the value and status of the nobility, it will continue!"
The little earl sighed heavily after hearing this, these things were too heavy, he couldn't do anything but sigh.
It took a while before he asked ~IndoMTL.com~ So is there any good news? "
He looked at the hearty breakfast in front of him, "I'm a little off."
Lynch laughed, "Of course there is good news. For example, after we beat up that group of people, we don't need to pay any price!"
"Fights in the Privy Council will become the norm, and you need to start exercising your body."
"I heard you always play late at night with girls, that's not good for your health, you know what I mean?"
The former countess looked at Lynch gratefully. She was not very open to the little earl's obsession with sex, even though she was the little earl's mother.
She always needs to avoid some things. The little earl is still the head of this family. No one can say what he does.
But Lynch can say that's why she's grateful.
The little earl's face was a little hot, and Lynch's eyes were like knives. He didn't dare to look up and pursed his lips, "I think I understand."
