Chapter 6: Revolt against yourself, crazy proposal(1/2)
Under the joint gazes of Qin Yao and Vico, the silver-armored soldier suddenly felt extremely stressed.
"What are you hesitating about?"
Vico said solemnly.
This sentence was like a fuse. The silver-armored soldier suddenly pulled out a gun from his arms and wildly pulled the trigger in the direction of Qin Yao.
A dazzling blue beam of light spurted out from the barrel and arrived in front of Qin Yao in an instant.
"Your Highness, be careful!"
Wei Ke shouted and even stood up suddenly, trying to use his body to block the bullet for Qin Yao.
Then he saw that when the bunches of blue light approached His Highness, they suddenly stopped in a piece of pale golden light and became still in the void.
Vico was stunned.
The silver-armored soldier was dumbfounded.
Qin Yao raised his hand and slowly closed his palms. The blue beams of light quickly disappeared as time passed and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
At this time, a group of soldiers with guns rushed in quickly. After seeing the silver-armored soldiers pointing guns at Qin Yao, they quickly knocked them to the ground and confiscated their weapons.
"Your Highness, are you okay?" one of the leaders asked in fear.
If anything happens to Prince Arthur, their entire escort team will be the first to become the tool for the Queen to vent her anger!
"I'm fine." Qin Yao said calmly.
"Bless me, the first king." The leader exhaled a long breath, feeling like he was surviving a disaster.
Qin Yao pointed to the assassin who was pinned to the ground and said: "Check him carefully. Whether you can get away with it depends on how much you can find out before the queen comes back."
"Thank you, Your Highness." The guard leader said gratefully.
If the other party hadn't said this, if they couldn't atone for their sins, when the queen returned to the Crystal Palace and learned about this matter, although she wouldn't vent her anger on them, a purge would definitely be inevitable.
By then, he, the leader, will bear a large part of the responsibility, and he will be lucky to be laid off safely...
"Arthur, did you awaken that ability just now?" After the guard leader dragged away the assassin, Vico asked with a complicated expression.
He now understood why Prince Arthur was not very interested in learning martial arts. In fact, it was not that he was not interested, but that he was not qualified to teach him.
At least he doesn't know yet what level the opponent's martial arts level has reached. The only thing he knows is that he will definitely be far better than himself.
A ten-year-old child is far better than himself in martial arts...
If he hadn't seen the magic of the other party with his own eyes, he would never have believed it.
"yes."
Qin Yao nodded slightly, staring closely into Vico's eyes: "Teacher, I want to know about the current official system of the kingdom."
Vico was startled, and he didn't even have time to ask about "awakening". He asked confusedly: "Why do you suddenly want to know about this?"
"The king gave me a meeting gift, and of course I want to give him a gift in return." Qin Yao said calmly.
Vico's heart skipped a beat and he hurriedly said: "The current official system is very mature and you can't find any loopholes."
Qin Yao shook his head and said: "I'm not looking for loopholes in the official system, I'm looking for ways to create obstacles for the king. Such empty explanations are too troublesome. You'd better explain the official system to me first, and then I'll tell you.
Just my thoughts."
Vico pondered: "The current official system is an assessment system. The Civil Service Commission regularly organizes examinations. Those who want to be officials must fight their way out among countless candidates before they can enter the official selection process. The so-called official selection,
Instead of letting candidates who pass the exam choose Yousi, Yousi selects them."
"Sounds fair." Qin Yao said.
Vico nodded: "This is a time-tested system that is conducive to the stable development of the kingdom."
"But I think this will also lead to the loss of some talents." Qin Yao said with a smile: "Because there are many talents who are really not proficient in taking exams."
Vico's heart tightened: "What do you mean?"
"Don't avoid enemies when promoting talents, and don't avoid relatives when promoting talents. I think that in addition to the assessment system, a recommendation system should be added. For officials, any talent that is beneficial to their governance can be placed in useful positions through recommendations.
Instead of spending a lot of time and energy on assessment, Qin Yao said.
Being able to become the Queen's think tank, does Vico deserve his fame?
Just hearing this, he guessed what Qin Yao meant, and said with a trembling voice: "Your Highness, this is a move that kills a thousand enemies and damages one thousand.
You are destined to become the King of Neptune in the future, how can you poach yourself?
Once the recommendation system is officially recognized, it will inevitably lead to large-scale nepotism, and the country's political system will be in chaos."
Qin Yao said: "I am destined to become the King of the Sea, but I am not the king of Atlantis now!
When we proposed the recommendation system, the first thing King Ovax had to face was the aristocracy in the country.
Once it is not handled well, the great nobles in the country will alienate him.
But if you want to satisfy the nobles, you must go through the recommendation system.
Through the recommendation system, it will shake his own foundation. If the favor and authority do not come from the king, then the recommended officials will naturally not have awe of the king.
What situation will lead to then, I think it will be very exciting."
Victor stared blankly at the little boy in front of him, as if he were looking at a terrifying devil.
Is this a child?
Is this a question a child should think about?
"My Highness, once this beast is released, it will be difficult to put it in the cage again." After a long time, Vico said earnestly: "Have you ever thought about how to deal with this source of turmoil in the future?"
Qin Yao smiled and said: "When autumn comes on the eighth day of the ninth month, I will kill all the flowers after they have bloomed; the incense array will penetrate Chang'an, and the whole city will be filled with golden armor."
Vico: "..."
It is difficult for English to reflect the beauty of Tang poetry, but Vico felt the murderous intention from this poem.
What on earth is this Your Highness going to do?
"Don't understand?" Qin Yao looked at him and asked.
Vico nodded blankly: "You didn't say a solution."
Qin Yao said leisurely: "You are saying that I am destined to become the King of the Sea, not the King of Atlantis.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The solution is also very simple. After I unify the seven seas, I will implement one country, two systems and macroeconomic control.
Not destroying the recommendation system that was born in the Kingdom of Atlantis, but locking the recommendation system in this land.
At that time, a red line will be drawn, and any big noble who dares to cross the line will be uprooted."
Vico: "..."
He was speechless.
The statement that he was destined to become Neptune came from his mouth. Could it be that now he is asked to say, "I don't think you can do such a great thing?"
Isn’t this a slap in the face?
Yes, from an internal perspective, it is difficult to solve the nepotism and official corruption caused by the recommendation system, but if the Seven Kingdoms are unified and Atlantis is just a city-state, then it will really be useful to kill whoever jumps to kill them.
"The recommendation system should be proposed by the queen." Qin Yao added: "Once she proposes this political concept, she will be supported by the domestic nobles and many senior officials. With the support of these people, it will be difficult for Ovax to
Shake her foundation again."
Vico murmured: "I'll think about it, I'll think about it again."
This kind of queen takes the lead in rebelling against her own family. He needs to think carefully about it.
"You can think about it when you go back." Qin Yao said with a smile: "Your most important task now is to give me history and geography..."
At the same time, inside the Golden Palace.
Ovacs raised his eyebrows and stared at the detective in front of him: "You said you saw a person being dragged out of the Crystal Palace by the guards?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." The agent said, "That man is wearing guard armor. There should be a rebellion within the Crystal Palace."
Ovacs silently clenched his fists and thought to himself: "The assassin was dragged out, so... was the assassination successful?"
In a blink of an eye, it was night, and Atlanna came back and walked into the Crystal Palace alone.
Vico ended the day's teaching with a complicated mood. After hesitating for a moment, he finally did not mention the "rebellion" to the queen, but only talked about the assassins during the day.
Atlanna was particularly angry about the assassin, and immediately summoned the leader of the guard army. From his collar, she learned that someone had bribed the other party's family and used the other party's family to poison and assassinate him.
Without thinking, she knew who did it. But the problem was that the assassin's family could no longer be found. Without evidence, she could not attack the culprit. She could only write it down silently for future settlement.
…
"You look worried."
At the dinner, Qin Yao sat opposite the queen and looked at her frowning face.
Atlanna exhaled softly, hesitated for a moment, and said: "My support rate in the kingdom is not optimistic."
Qin Yao's heart moved and he said: "Except for the former king's old men, others think that your and Ovax's child is more suitable to be the king of Atlantis, right?"
Atlanna's face was full of astonishment. She didn't expect this child to have such a keenness in politics.
To be continued...
