The King of Knights in a Different World

Unfortunately it failed”

no.362 The French First Republic?

Lucifer fell into deep thought on the side, Pepin was assassinated but failed, this seemed like a trivial matter on the surface, but it also explained some problems invisibly.

The interior of France has begun to be unstable, and it only takes one flame to ignite it.

As for the marriage proposal, it is only part of the strategy, and it will definitely be used formally.

And what Mira wants to do is... light this pile of firewood.

"permit.

Since they have internal problems, we also help them push.

Whoever tries to kill Pepin, we shall take this opportunity to disturb the situation in France."

"No problem, leave it to me."

"However, that alone is not enough."

"not enough..."

"Although Rome and Macedonia are not France's troubles for the time being, Britain is still.

The truce is coming to an end, and I need to do something to make them feel that I am not paying attention to France for the time being."

"do what"

"Didn't Helen send us an invitation before? I'm going to accept the invitation."

"They didn't... just send an invitation to us, they sent an invitation to the mainland.

But judging from the current situation, except for...Britain, no other country should pay attention to their Olympic Games."

"Olympic Games!"

There are still Olympic Games in this world, Lucifer said that he feels very delicate about it.

Unlike the Olympic Games in the previous world, which were held regularly, the Olympic Games in this world seem to require the so-called divine revelation, and they will only be held when the holy flame emerges from Mount Olympus.

In this era where the gods have disappeared, people don't know why there is a holy fire there.

It is said that although the sacred mountain can be seen, ordinary people can never reach the top of the mountain.

Regarding... this secret, Lucifer was a little curious.

"What's the matter, you look nostalgic."

"Nothing, just wanted something fun.

For me, this may be the last leisure time."

"Britain now has enough support for you to fight a war.

And our first goal is to..."

"France."

While Lucifer and Semiramis were talking about the strategy of France, Robespierre, Count of Balia in France, was holding a secret meeting.

There were more than a dozen people participating in the meeting, most of them were nobles, and there were only three businessmen.

They were divided into two factions, the Girondin faction with the Marquis of Condorcet as the head, and the Jacobin faction with Robespierre as the head.

Most of them are disaffected by the situation in France in recent years. Driven by this force, they want to build a new France.

And call himself a revolutionary.

In fact, although the situation in France has been bad in recent years, the top beneficiaries have not been harmed by it. Instead, they have taken the opportunity to make a fortune. ......Little nobleman.

For... small nobles, once the territory loses vitality due to taxation, the people will leave automatically, and then the ruin of the territory will be accelerated.

It's fine if it's just like this, and everyone can pass along, but Britain, which was in a very difficult situation before, has recovered under Lucifer's governance.

Most of them have been to Britain and seen the prosperity there.

This has further...accelerated the imbalance in their hearts, and they also want a rich life like that in Britain.

In the dark secret room, magic lights flickered.

Everyone sits around a long table.

"Everyone, the purpose of inviting you here today must be clear to everyone, so I won't say much here.

Our purpose of this trip is only one, to overthrow the king and establish a France of our own."

Robespierre spoke first.

"Count Robespierre, can we all really build a new France?"

Condorcet hesitated at this.

After all, their enemies are very powerful, and their forces are too weak.

"Of course! Five years ago, the situation in Britain was not much better than ours, but their king spent five years building a new Britain and clearing away the moths in the country. Since they can do it, we can do it too. able."

Robespierre's voice was very confident at this time.

"However, the institutional aspects of Britain are quite different from those of France."

The Marguerite woman in red, the count is still a little worried, she is a member of the Girondists.

"Facts have proved that the aristocratic system with the head of the king is already suitable for the current era.

We want to build a country of the people."

After Robespierre finished speaking, Baron Marat, who belonged to the Jacobins, asked a probing question.

"You mean, we study the British system"

This...a person who is proficient in law is curious about Lucifer's system, but also wary.

"This is not a bad idea. After completing the reforms, Britain is recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, a central system centered on the king is no different from a dictatorship, the king of France loses control and the nobles restrain him, but the king of Britain loses control and the result will be."

Count Hébert, who was dressed in blue, also spoke at this time, and he was also a member of the Jacobins.

"Why should we adopt a completely British system.

Although Britain is doing well, it is because they have an excellent king, and they can use the system to maximize their potential, but unfortunately, we don't have such a king."

Robespierre continued.

"Then what do you mean?"

"Knight King's ability as a king is very good, we don't need to doubt this, none of us can surpass him, but on the other hand, why should we compare with him alone.

No matter how strong he is, he is only one person. There are thirty of us here.

Thirty to one, the odds are with us."

Having said that, Robespierre gestured to the people around him.

Yes, just from the point of view of numbers, if there are 30 of them gathered here, both in terms of strength and wisdom, they should surpass one person.

There is strength in numbers, and they believe so firmly.

"Say what you think"

Hearing this Condorcet said calmly.

He is now a little curious about the new system that Robespierre is talking about.

Condorcet's words seemed to turn on a switch, and Robespierre's expression was very excited at this time.

He opened his arms, as if calling for something.

"Compared to Britain's extreme dictatorship, I want to build a republic that is dominated by the people and everyone can get fair and free.

We will have a parliament, a parliament to lead the country, whose members are elected by the people."

"Oh! That sounds good."

Mara is very interested in this, handing over the country to the people, just listening to it feels very wonderful.

Most of the others felt similarly, with one exception.

His name was Tocqueville, he was a wealthy merchant, not a nobleman, and he was introduced to this meeting by Marat because of his mastery of the law.

There are only three businessmen like him, accounting for one-tenth of 10% of the meeting.

no.363 The tyranny of the majority

There were only three businessmen participating in this meeting, which also shows their own excellence.

Otherwise, they won't be fancy. After all, if this kind of thing gets out, waiting for them is the result of... exterminating the family.

"It feels a bit like the Senate in Rome."

Tocqueville thought for a moment and said.

"No, the Roman Senate was born among the nobles, but our parliament is elected from all the people."

Robespierre spelled out the difference between the two.

The Senate was born among the nobles, but what Robespierre said was to choose representatives from all.

This means that ordinary people also have the opportunity to enter parliament.

Just this point alone is... a huge temptation for those who are frustrated.

"What about the choice?"

Tocqueville continued asking.

"Representatives are elected according to the situation of the region, and everyone living in this land can have the right to vote.

This is our country, and we all enjoy the power that comes with it."

"Are all resolutions like this?"

"Of course, the next thing can only happen if there is a parliamentary vote.

That way, we can prevent a repeat of today's tragedy."

"It sounds like a great idea, but..."

This time, Tocqueville was interrupted by Robespierre before he finished speaking. He was not very satisfied with this...not even a nobleman who had stupid questions about the perfect plan in his heart.

"Such a perfect system, do you have any doubts about it, Tocqueville?"

"No...nothing."

Hearing this, Tocqueville also chose not to ask any further questions in a very sensible way.

"If you have no doubts, we are here to sign a declaration, and we swear that we will dedicate ourselves to a respectful France."

"For the respected France!"

For a time, such voices appeared on everyone's lips at the same time, because they were full of confidence in the future because of the new system, as long as the royal family was overthrown and let them take power, France would be reborn, they firmly believed.

These people signed their names on a French declaration one after another as if they had beaten chicken blood.

After that, they discussed many plans on how to overthrow the royal family and perfected them.

Finally, they left here in batches.

After the merchant named Tocqueville returned to his home, he asked his servants to wait outside the study, while he entered a dark room inside the study.

Unlocking many layers of magic mechanism, he came to a tunnel.

Through this tunnel, he came to the farm in disguise, and after showing the password, he entered the basement of the farm, where he saw a man who was biased toward women.

"Master Milan!"

The man from Tocqueville saluted, and at the same time, there was already a crescent moon ring on his finger.

That's a token of allegiance to Darkmoon.

"Tocqueville, what needs you to come and report to me in person."

Milan looked at Tocqueville and felt that something big had happened.
