Chapter 120 Plantagenet Dynasty

Eastern Continent Luojing.

A room in the Nandou Academy.

The curtains of the round windows were closed and finally opened after nearly two weeks. Slim fingers pulled open the light-colored curtains on both sides and pushed open the window, allowing the wind to pour into the room, swirl and play in it, bringing in the fresh air of early autumn.

Roland Hill put on a light white dress with blue embellishments on the collar and corners, and a waistband tied around the waist to outline a beautiful figure.

Drying the water droplets on her cheeks with a towel, the silver-haired girl combed her hair in front of the bronze mirror, and then tied a light blue hairband. , fastened to the hairline behind the ear. This way it doesn't seem too monotonous.

After simply tidying up, Loren Hill pushed open the door, ready to go out for a walk.

At this moment, there was a sound of wings flapping from behind, and then the girl felt her right shoulder sink slightly, and a fat bird with an orange-red crown plume landed on her side.

"Are you going out too?" Roland Hill touched the feathers of the daisy-wearing bird.

"啾啾~" (to eat delicious food)

It seemed that he was starving recently, and Roland Hill turned around again and looked at the blue jay who hadn't moved in the room.

"What about you, you must have been hungry recently." The two little guys seemed to have slept with them for a while, so I didn't know if they were hungry anymore.

The blue jay uttered a tweet, expressing that he did not want to go out for the time being, but also expressed the hope that the girl would come back with some delicious food.

"Well, I'll remember." Roland Hill nodded slightly, then walked downstairs with Dai Ju beside him.

The buildings in the Academy are similar to the Huizi type, with a courtyard in the middle, a water pool and a rockery, surrounded by seven-story pavilions, which are all rooms for students to live in, and are generally used to house students from all over the dynasty.

Unlike the West, Eastern dynasties did not adopt the practice of dividing feudal lords, but a highly centralized model. It is said that its administrative model was first learned from the Mercury Dynasty.

The Mercury Dynasty is quite special. It adopts a multi-consul co-governance model. The highest-ranking consuls even have the name of kings. These consuls rely on the tacit understanding of fighting together for many years to form a mechanism similar to a parliament or a cabinet. Negotiate and decide national affairs together, and formulate unified laws and policies.

However, unlike the Western model in the girl's memory, these consuls were not born through elections, but came to this position purely by strength or merit.

As for the judging criteria of strength and merit, it is actually very crude and simple, that is, under your leadership, how many people can be guaranteed to survive and how many enemies can be killed.

If an ancient creature was used to describe the Mercury Dynasty, it would be a giant with many heads. There is a complete system under each consul. Even if the Mercury Dynasty suffers a major defeat and a consul dies, there are still multiple consuls in the dynasty, and they can still rush in. And every consul is a dynastic orthodoxy, and there is no such thing as a death that will change people's hearts.

They use a highly unified combat manual and command system. Even if the upper-level officers and necromancers are defeated, other officers and necromancers receive the defeated army and can unite the army in a short period of time.

The successor Archon would quickly absorb the army of the dead Archon and then combine it to fight again, burning like wildfire.

Although the elven kingdom and the orcs have crushed the army of the Mercurial Dynasty time and time again, killing one archon after another, there will always be a new archon in the rear who will take over the banner and authority, and then continue to lead the battle.

At the height of the war in the Mercurial Dynasty, there were 7 high-level consuls fighting against the three kingdoms of elves at the same time, 4 high-level consuls blocking the orc empire, and 2 high-level consuls strangling the remnants of the ogre kingdom.

Most of these high-level consuls are Necromancer series 9 existences, or simply witches. They have lived a long time, deal with common enemies, and have extremely deep friendship with each other. They come together every few years to negotiate the dynasty's next move, while sharing the latest technological achievements. It is also for this reason that although the Mercury Dynasty has been fighting for years, the technology and system are also rapidly progressing and iterating.

Year after year, year after year, until finally the deep-rooted orc and elf kingdoms were uprooted, the center of the continent was driven out, and they could only survive in the corners.

However, such a magnificent and passionate era is finally over.

When the Quicksilver Dynasty was no longer invincible, the internal quarrel between different voices became more and more intense, until it completely fell apart.

The Plantagenet Dynasty was supported by Chifeng, who had also experienced the glorious era of the Quicksilver Dynasty with Dorothy, so when the Plantagenet Dynasty was established, it also absorbed and adopted many systems of the Quicksilver Dynasty.

That is to set up various professional institutions to deal with various problems. However, in terms of the top-level ruling candidates, Chifeng adopted a more conservative bloodline inheritance, rather than relying on strength.

This is actually very understandable, that is, the person who can kill the most and fight the most is not necessarily suitable for being a ruler. Besides, there are also many problems in the law. Could it be that because of his strong personal strength, the whole world should listen to his words? If a tournament is held every day, does it mean that the rulers have to be changed every day.

Considering that the environment and scenes that the Mercury Dynasty faced in the past could not be replicated, Chifeng finally adopted the ancient blood inheritance. In this way, at least in a peaceful and prosperous age, the entire social system can be stabilized, and there will be no major chaos. However, in many institutions that enforce rights, the talent selection and assessment mechanism is activated, and a large number of screenings are carried out.

Of course, in order to make the ruler who succeeded the throne not too bad, Chifeng sometimes teaches himself and observes his actions, words and deeds.

Walking among the high-rise buildings in the Academy, Loren Hill recalled the books and books about the Orient that he had read in Emenas, most of which described the huge dynasty of the Orient in a tone of admiration, and envied such a vast empire. Land, people and environment.

In fact, the Plantagenet Dynasty in the East is indeed very strong, and many of its skills are slightly better than those of the West. Walking on the streets of Luojing, you can feel an open and proud temperament.

On the central street, the ground is covered with light gray and blue slate, which can roughly support eight carriages at the same time. There should have been some patterns carved on the slate, but after years of trampling and rain, it has long become round and smooth, and there are still residues in it. There are a lot of small potholes, these are the traces left after the horseshoes and wheels rolled.

Shops of different sizes and shapes and styles of different heights are opened on both sides of the street, which are dazzling and dazzling.

Some of them are from the Sixteen Continents in the southwest, with ancient vines and purple flowers on both sides of the shop door, and a lot of brown-red and dark-purple lacquerware inside. There are few sculptures, oil paintings, poetry collections, etc. Some of them come from green at first glance, with red and green rose vines intertwined, and many intricate and exquisite dresses are placed inside, and some oriental girls will also go in and try them on.

There are also ice sculptures on the ice wall, ice elf shops decorated with crystal pendants, lily spider plants, forest elf shops selling fragrant fruit wine and accessories, and many people in the remote berry islands also set up shops here, selling all kinds of colorful shells. Goldfish, glassware, etc.

Walking on the main street of Luojing, it was like visiting the World Exposition. Roland Hill looked at the surrounding buildings with curiosity and surprise. She originally thought that fewer foreigners could be seen everywhere in Luojing. Among them, people from the Western Continent who wore dresses, mage robes, and western-style skirts aside, she also met several forest elves and ice elves that were hard to see.

Looking at the reactions of the surrounding people, it seems that they have long been surprised, so I won't be too surprised.

"Welcome~ What do you need?"

Pushing open the door made of cyan glass and yellow wood, Loren Hill walked into a bookstore, and the clerk in the store walked over quickly.

She was wearing an oriental-style frosted white cross-collar skirt with blue prints on the collar and sleeves, but her pale red eyes and golden hair showed that she should be from the Western Continent, or perhaps from the verdant land.

"I want to find some books to read." Roland Hill looked at the store. There were already several customers visiting, but everyone was relatively quiet.

"Okay, if you're looking for what type of book you're looking for, you can ask me." Seeing Roland Hill speak, the clerk nodded with a smile, and then did not follow, but let him tour on his own.

"Tweet." (Hungry)

Dai Ju expressed her dissatisfaction with the silver-haired girl's behavior of visiting the bookstore instead of going to eat first. She squatted on Loren Hill's shoulder and tweeted a few times, attracting some people's attention.

"So cute~" A young girl seemed to like such fluffy birds.

"It looks very powerful?" The older man next to him nodded slightly, as if he noticed that this bird had the strength of Sequence 4.

"It's probably very expensive, and I don't know where to buy it. Why haven't I heard of it before?" a nobleman wearing a blue background and gold embroidered brocade robes muttered, this person seems to be a frequent visitor to flower and bird shops.

Walking between the layers of bookcases, Roland Hill swept them one by one, then stopped in front of a bookshelf, bent over and took out a thick-shell book.

Open the thick book, flip it gently, stroke the clear and deposited handwriting on it, and the delicate touch of the page also comes from your fingertips.

"The Blue Bird Holds the Branch, Falls and Lives in the Country"

This book tells the history of the rise and fall of five countries on the Wulian Mountains. Among them, the blue bird refers to Qingluan, the phoenix of the five virtues. These five countries were more or less influenced by the blue bird in the process of birth. , their customs, culture, and practice methods are quite similar.

Under the influence of the witch of the phoenix, the Eastern Continent gradually changed from a barren civilization to a civilization, and the five witches she nurtured, that is, the Phoenix of the Five Virtues, also deeply influenced the establishment of these countries on the continent.

After flipping through it for a while, Roland Hill temporarily closed the book, held it in front of him, and continued to walk.

The book will be unfinished for a while, so it is better to buy a few first, go back and study it carefully, and she also noticed that the Dai Ju on her shoulder is a little bit unable to sit still, and she walks around on both feet, reminding her all the time. Girl, it's time to eat.

"How much are these books?"

After a rough walk, Loren Hill picked out 4 books and placed them in front of the counter for inquiries.

"Wait a minute, I'll take a look." The clerk who greeted him just now stood at the counter, wrote down the title of the book, and then flipped through the booklet on the side to find the price recorded in it.

"A total of 4 gold dishes and 62 silver rings."

The price is not cheap, Roland Hill thought to himself, and then took out five golden gorilla pans from the small cloth bag at his waist and placed them on the table.

"Okay, I'll find the money for you." The girl also seemed to have the strength of a natural sequence 3. After a quick inspection of the golden dish, a slight smile appeared on her face, then she opened the drawer, took out the 38 silver rings for change, and placed it on the in front of the girl.

Afterwards, she packed these silver rings with a small gray velvet cloth bag and handed them to Loren Hill together with the book.

"Welcome to come again~"

"Well. Can you ask why the price is so expensive, it's my first time here."

"It's really surprising to come here for the first time, but many things in Luojing will be more expensive. In addition, the price of these books is not only the production cost, but also the compensation cost of our bookstore to the writers."

"Although the book is very good,

However, there are not many people who buy each single species. If the price is lower, the income of the people who write the book will be very small. Over time, it will be difficult to find good-looking books. "The clerk briefly explained the reason.

"No wonder..." Lorraine Hill expressed understanding.

Seeing that the silver-haired girl was so reasonable, the clerk seemed to be quite happy, and then he talked about some other things.

"Actually, some books related to cultivation will be cheaper, because there are more people who buy them, so they can share the cost. And some books that are not related to cultivation, less people will buy them. Although the author has also put a lot of effort into it, the money earned It didn’t cost much, and to keep it going, we had to raise the price.”

"As a matter of fact, our Golden Leaf Bookstore also has branches in several big cities. It's hard to do it in other small towns. That's why." The blonde girl lightly touched her chin with her finger, thinking about what happened to the bookstore.

....

"Maybe one day everyone will not worry about cultivating, they will be able to eat and wear warm clothes, and have free time to read these 'useless' books, so that the price will gradually become cheaper."

......

"Isn't it true that you said that such a scene is a peaceful and prosperous world? But it's impossible now. Many parts of the world are still suffering from disasters. Many people can't even eat enough to eat, so naturally they don't have the heart to read books. "

....

"Are you asking me, my parents used to be from the Cang Cui Empire, but I grew up in the East, but I am familiar with this place. I studied in Dongchan Academy, and now I am a student of Qingxiu. If you take a job, you have to be admitted to the silver embroidery at least, which is still far from the blue embroidery and the purple embroidery."

....

"Giggle, thank you for your encouragement. But Jinxiu is still too far away from me. With that kind of ability, I guess it's not a problem to join the door-to-door faction, and it will be more free than public office."

In this way, Roland Hill did not leave immediately, but communicated with the girl who grew up near Luojing for a long time, and learned a lot of things in the Plantagenet Dynasty.
