Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 273 The Council of Nobles
The aristocratic parliament representing the aristocratic class is actually not far from the imperial palace representing the imperial power, only separated by a wall.

But just like the relationship between the two parties, it seems that they complement each other, but in fact there is a high wall that cannot be crossed between the two parties, and they both like to throw garbage, knives and mines at the opposite side. Imperial nobles are one of the most disgusting means of traditional nobles, second only to royal marriage.

There is no way, whoever makes the two sides are naturally enemies, and both want to push the wall to the opposite side and monopolize all the territory.

This is a conflict of interests that cannot be resolved at all.

Owen also got some secrets about the noble council from Earl Dekla. For example, there was no noble council at first, only the temple of the noble goddess.

Later, the nobles discovered that the emperor's power was too great. After the empire stabilized, they began to find reasons to kill people and take back the enfeoffed territories.

There are only so many land rights, there are more royal families, and there are fewer aristocrats. Who would want to, this has touched the root of the survival of traditional aristocrats, so they naturally launched a resistance.

But the nobles soon found that their resistance was too weak, which made the emperor even more excited.

When the aristocrats understood that there would be no room for resistance if they did not hold together, the aristocratic council appeared.

The original aristocratic council was a secret organization, illegal, and the emperor severely cracked down on it, because the emperor knew very well how much the existence of the aristocratic council was a threat to imperial power.

It's a pity that not every emperor is wise and powerful, especially the emperor who was supported by the nobles. Without the support of the royal family, he lacked resistance to certain demands of the nobles. Yes, it was also magnificently built outside the palace, next to the Temple of the Noble Goddess.

Later, the royal family realized that the emperor who agreed to the establishment of the aristocratic council fell off his horse and died. Facing the danger of the empire splitting hands.

In the end, it is natural that the tail is too big to lose. The noble council has gradually become a behemoth second only to the imperial power. Even the imperial nobles conferred by the emperor also need to be registered in the noble council step by step. If the noble council does not give the face card process, the emperor will feel a headache.

Thinking of this, Owen looked up and understood why the noble council had the confidence to fight against the emperor and the royal family.

Because of the space of authority, the temples seen in Owen's vision are different, not as simple as ancient buildings.

For thousands of years, every brick and stone in every building here has been permeated by faith, and then converted into divine light by the statues and projected over the temple, forming the image of a graceful noble goddess, sheltering the temple and believers.

Owen could clearly see the noble goddess formed by the divine light standing above the temple. Although the divine light radiating from her body stopped under the high wall of the palace, the meaning of warning was very obvious.

The noble goddess is not a god of faith. As the patron saint of the nobles, her status is not low. Although she is not good at fighting, as long as the class exists, there will be no lack of faith, let alone the god of knights and the god of guards. Belonging to God, the combat effectiveness of trained war knights is not inferior to that of real guards.

The strength of the war knights may not be considered top-notch, but each one is an officer who is good at commanding battles.

The real guards have keen observation skills and tough bodies, and it is difficult for ordinary people to hide them from their eyes. At the same time, they are good at defense, and they are also opponents that any enemy hates.

When the two sides unite, even the royal knights will feel a headache.

No wonder the emperor was often restrained when facing the nobles, especially the traditional nobles. Apart from too many restrictions, the existence of the noble goddess was the biggest threat.

But this also made Owen understand that the emperor, at least the royal family also has a lot of cards, otherwise the divine light of the noble goddess would not stop outside the palace.

There is no kindness without reason, and the only reason to know how to measure is to have been hurt.

Owen rubbed his chin, feeling that the water inside was too deep for him to grasp, so he didn't plan to learn more about it, so as not to increase his troubles.

The Marquis of Bogasus introduced it to everyone like a qualified tour guide. The main body of the complex is a temple dedicated to the noble goddess. On both sides are the temples of the God of Knights and the God of Guards. The war knights and real guards are in charge. Security and inspection, followed by the aristocratic arbitration office and the aristocratic council.

Needless to say, the temple and the noble council, it doesn't sound like the noble arbitration office in a good place is a place to punish the nobles, but it is rarely used, because the nobles themselves belong to the privileged class, and there is no need to use them to kill people and destroy their families. The Arbitration Office is not as bad as the failure to repay the debt. Speaking of this, Marquis Borgasos's expression is strangely stiff. It seems that he owes a lot of money to buy a house and is under a lot of pressure.

What's interesting is that from the conversation of the Marquis of Borgasos, Owen did not find that the believers have a devout belief in the gods, which means that he is not loyal to the gods.

In fact, this has something to do with the priesthood of the noble goddess.

As a noble goddess, there will be no commoner believers at all. The problem is that noble believers are simply unreliable.

Because it is purely instinctive for the nobles to intrigue and hide their true thoughts, so how could it be possible to completely open up their hearts and dedicate their faith to the gods? Simply, any existence is just a tool for them to use, and the same is true for gods.

In this case, even if the nobles forcibly hypnotize themselves, their true inner thoughts will be exposed in front of the gods, which will make the situation worse. non-interference.

As for the Goddess of Nobility, as a true God with priesthood, as long as the class and nobility still exist, the faith will continue to flow. In addition, she knows what kind of thing the nobility is, so she never insists on it.

Even so, when approaching the temple, Owen still restrained all abnormalities. After all, this place can be regarded as the domain of a true god. After the Marquis of Si, go to the Noble Registry of the Noble Council.

What is surprising is that all the staff here are young and beautiful women and handsome men, and they all come from noble families and have received a good education, but they have no inheritance rights.

But Owen always has the feeling that he has strayed into a blind date club, because their eyes are too direct, and how on earth did they wear clothes with so much fabric out of uniforms to seduce this effect?
In fact, Owen's feeling was not wrong, because most of the people who came here to register were young nobles who had inherited titles. These girls knew very well what this meant.

They have no inheritance rights, and they have to marry after all, so why not find a reliable one while they are new.

Therefore, the reception work of the noble council is quite sought-after. Even Ferrier was surrounded by a few handsome guys who didn't want to work hard, making her laugh. The first-class Owen was surrounded by a group of people, making him Very uncomfortable.
