Chapter 351 Oswald Mosley

Mosley left the Prime Minister's Office in anger.

He thinks Ma Wei is too arrogant!

He didn't even listen to his purpose and just let him leave!

It is difficult for such a person to achieve great things!

In the office, Assistant David looked at the closed door and couldn't help but ask: "Prime Minister, although Commissioner Mosley is young, he is a very capable man. He was invited to enter the Conservative Party only two years ago.

He is a rare talent who has joined the cabinet..."

"Oswald Mosley is indeed not a simple person." Mavey nodded and said, "I'm afraid he came today to join the Liberal Party."

"Then you still reject him? If you reject him, people from the Conservative Party may not defect to the Liberal Party in the future..."

"I didn't want them to take refuge in the first place." Ma Wei said: "Dominating one family is not a situation that His Majesty and the Pope want to see. There must be a balance in everything. Without competition, power will be highly concentrated and cause instability.

"

"Is this what the Pope and the King mean?" David showed a surprised expression.

"Leviathan political structures are a thing of the past, David."

Throwing a mint leaf into his mouth, Ma Wei said quietly: "The king is no longer the leader of the kingdom's will, nor is the cabinet. Even the parliament can only be regarded as the embodiment of the people's will."

"Gods need the faith of believers, so they impose the thoughts they create on believers. But believers are independent individuals. They will be affected by the people around them, but they still have the ability to think for themselves."

"Because of self-thinking, believers can distinguish right from wrong. The personal subjectivity in the Leviathan country is difficult to convince them. They have a unique set of moral standards forged through the furnace of society, which is the basis for their judgment of the world."

The more David listened, the more confused he became. He knew what the Leviathan state was. The theory proposed by the famous philosopher Thomas Hobbes three hundred years ago opposed the divine right of kings, advocated autocratic monarchy, and advocated the use of 'state religion' to control the people.

Maintain 'order'.

But Ma Wei’s words undoubtedly mixed believers, people, gods, and power together. This was something David didn’t understand.

Believers - people - gods - power are actually inseparable.

Seeing David's confused look, Ma Wei explained: "To put it simply, the will of the country is no longer the individual will under the autocratic system, but the will of the people and the will of the whole."

"Hobbes believed that the country is a country where the people give part of their rights to the king, and then surrender to the king's will and gain asylum. Under an autocratic system, the people are numb and all obey the king's orders. But in fact, since the Glorious Revolution,

After that, everything was turned upside down, power was redistributed, and capitalism began to develop wildly."

"Now that gods have come, gods need to gain the faith of believers, so they must listen to the voices of believers. This hinders the development of capitalism, because the vast majority of believers come from the lower class people, and capitalism exploits the bottom people. As a representative

The church must protect the interests of believers, which leads to the outbreak of sharp social conflicts."

David understood somewhat: "Prime Minister, do you mean that the emergence of the Labor Party and the decline of the Liberal Party are actually the result of the collision between the church and capital?"

"Your point of view is very novel and goes to the core of the problem."

Ma Wei nodded and said: "Before the advent of the gods, the church was also a type of capital. It gained monopoly and supreme power through the interpretation of doctrines and gods. But since the advent of the gods, the core of the church has changed, and the gods are no longer

They needed to define it, but the real meaning emerged, so they began to convert believers according to the true religion. In the process, they were bound to conflict with capital and even secular power."

"Conflict is a good thing. Conflict often means innovation. Capital and secular power are obviously not opponents of the church, but the church cannot directly eliminate capital. After all, the existence of capital has enabled the rapid development of science and technology and improved the lives of many people."

"Only the church's lack of subjective initiative will lead to stagnation in society. Only by using capital can people live a better life."

"That's why we need balance!" David suddenly realized: "A delicate balance can give both sides an incentive to compete! Prime Minister, you deliberately made Commissioner Mosley angry!"

"That's right."

Ma Wei smiled: "You finally understand what I mean."

Although he said this, Ma Wei didn't think so in his heart.

It is true that he deliberately angered Mosley, but the fundamental purpose was to force Mosley into the camp of the Fourth Prince, not the Liberal Party.

As Prime Minister, he could not explicitly persuade Mosley to join the Labor Party and could only find ways to force him out.

As expected, after the first cabinet meeting, Mosley took the initiative to visit Arthur and said he had something important to discuss.

"Commissioner Mosley, shouldn't you be holding a meeting in No. 9 Downing Street at the moment?"

"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, the meeting is over." Mosley sat across from the desk and lit a cigarette: "The new prime minister is a concise and capable person."

No complaints, no hostility, except for the brief anger when he was rejected, Mosley has returned to his normal state of mind.

Complaining is useless, it will only make people upset, and will not solve the problem at all. Hostility is even more ridiculous. He is the Prime Minister, and revoking your position is just a matter of words. Any outstanding person who is aware of current affairs will not compare his status to himself.

A big shot who can even decide his own life or death expressed his dissatisfaction.

That's what negotiation is like, you put forward your demands and I talk about my conditions. Complaining and explaining will only lead to inferiority.

"You said you have something very important to see me about. What is it?"

Arthur asked his secretary to bring hot tea. Compared with Ma Wei's attitude, he seemed much gentler.

"I have always felt sorry for you, Your Highness." Mosley said straight to the point: "Although Your Highness, you are the youngest of the four princes, your wisdom is no worse than the other three princes. I have always believed that Your Highness,

Your situation is not suitable for your abilities."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking at Mosley, a 22-year-old young man with shiny hair and a middle parting, Arthur asked with interest: "In the Conservative Party, you are already

There are only a handful of them left, why not stick to it?”

"The Conservatives cannot achieve my ambitions."

Mosley said calmly: "Your Highness, my goal is greater than you imagine."

Arthur nodded slowly: "I see ambition in your eyes, and I'm also curious, how many people like you are there in the Conservative Party?"

"If His Highness is willing to accept them, I think there will be more than a dozen people, at least."

"What do you think of the Labor Party?"

"I think the Labor Party's policy is very correct!" Mosley suddenly became excited, his eyes shining: "If we follow the original economic environment, I think it will take at least 30 years or more for the Labor Party to be established. It must have gone through wars.

Only then can similar sprouts of thought appear.”

"But the most powerful thing about you, Your Highness, is that you seize fleeting opportunities... No! It should be said that opportunities are created by you on your own initiative!"

“You used the Education Reform Bill and the women’s unions submitted by the Liberal Party to stand up when workers needed help the most! The emergence of women’s unions and the Education Reform Bill was simply a surprise from heaven! Without them to catalyze the domestic economy,

The Labor Party cannot build up such a huge momentum in a short period of time!"

Mosley spoke quickly: "To be able to do this, either Your Highness has an expert behind you, or Your Highness, you are the expert!"

"You see clearly," Arthur said.

"The only thing I can't understand is that the women's union and the Education Reform Act were both ideological waves initiated by the Liberal Party. But the second prince and you are not on good terms, and he has no reason to help..."

Mosley frowned and said: "I really can't figure out why the Liberal Party would propose a bill that seems to be beneficial to itself, but is actually helping your highness."

What a keen sense of smell!

Arthur narrowed his eyes and then smiled and said: "You can't use the results to deduce the process. As far as I know, Shukri proposed the Education Reform Bill for real estate speculation. As for the female union, it was just an accident.

Product, without Duke Chevalier, the women’s rights movement would have been suppressed long ago, and Duke Chevalier is not a member of the Liberal Party.”

"Maybe it's a coincidence."

Mosley flicked the ash from his cigarette and changed the topic: "Your Highness, do you think I am qualified?"

Without much hesitation, Arthur stood up and stretched out his hand to Mosley:

"Welcome to join."

Mosley also stood up, shook hands with Arthur, and said in a serious tone: "Your Highness, you will not regret today's decision, I promise you."

Mosley was relieved to have defected to the Labor Party. When he was rejected by Mawei, he really panicked. If neither the Liberal Party nor the Labor Party would accept him, then he would have no place to display his ambitions.

Fortunately, everything went well and the Labor Party was willing to accept his surrender. All he had to do next was to find an opportunity to change careers...

"Commissioner Mosley, please stay."

Mosley, who was about to board the carriage and leave, heard a voice behind him and stopped. When he looked back, he saw a young man wearing an octagonal hat and a jacket.

"Who are you?"

"My master invites you to meet and talk."

The young man wearing an octagonal hat pointed to a four-wheel carriage approaching not far away and said with a smile: "Please don't refuse."

Glancing at the young man's slightly bulging waist, Mosley knew he had no choice. After the carriage opened the door, he lowered his head and got in.

The dark carriage was filled with the pungent smell of perfume. What appeared in front of Mosley was a middle-aged man with round cheeks, holding a goblet with half a glass of red wine in it.

Drinking wine in the car?

What freak?

Mosley, who comes from an aristocratic family, does not like drinking red wine on a rocking carriage. The education he received since childhood is elegance. No matter what the situation, situation, or status, he must be elegant.

Smoking in the car is the limit of what he can accept.

"Commissioner Oswald Mosley...the youngest member of Parliament in the Kingdom of Windsor. When you entered the House of Commons, you were only 21 years old. Before that, you also attended the Royal Military Academy for a period of time."

Hearing that the other party knew him so well, Mosley was quite curious and asked: "Who are you? Don't you know that kidnapping a cabinet member is a felony?"

"Kidnapping? No, no, no, you misunderstood." The middle-aged man ordered the driver to stop the carriage, pointed to the unlocked door and said, "This is not a kidnapping, but an invitation. You can leave at any time, at any time."

Mosley was not in a hurry to leave. He did not feel any danger. Naturally, he was curious about what the other party wanted to do with him. When he refused to leave, the middle-aged man ordered the driver to move on, and then said: "I haven't introduced myself yet, you can

Call me Mr. Butler, and if you need anything in London, please feel free to see me."

"Mr. Butler..." Mosley felt that the name sounded familiar, but couldn't remember where he had heard it before: "What do you want from me?"

"Do you know about the Doomsday Party?"

"....Are you a doomsday party?"

"Yes." Mr. Butler nodded slightly: "It seems that you know us, so it will save you a lot of trouble. If you are also a savior who is worried about the fate of mankind, please join our doomsday party...

"

"The Doomsday Party doesn't have a good reputation," Mosley said.

"That's just a rumor spread by some people. What's more, for someone like you, as long as it helps you realize your lofty ambitions, you would even sell your soul to the devil, wouldn't you?"

Mr. Butler said with a smile: "If you need help, our Doomsday Party is your best choice. We don't want your soul or your money, and we won't bear the name of human traitor."

"I have never wanted to be a traitor to mankind." Mosley said quietly: "I do things unscrupulously, but that does not mean that I will surrender to the devil. Besides, I have never seen a devil at all! I don't even know what they look like.

Know!"

What does the devil look like?

Mr. Butler thought of Freya. Her beauty and mature charm were so superb that even he was salivating. Not many men could hold her back.

Mr. Butler has a rough guess about what the devil looks like. He knows that many devils are not as ugly as described in the teachings of various churches. People are devils because of their aesthetic problems.

After thinking about it, Mr. Butler could not tell Mosley about Freya being a devil, and continued to persuade: "Mr. Mosley, please believe me, you will not be willing to sign a contract with the devil. They are a group of devils."

Cunning creatures, rather than cooperate with them, it is better to choose the doomsday party."

"What are the benefits of cooperating with you...?"

"We will help you realize your ambition. Don't you want to be prime minister? It's very simple and not difficult at all."

"Simple?" Mosley sneered: "The new Prime Minister Nicholas is only 27 years old. The Liberal Party, the Democratic Party and even the church support him. The term of office of such a person is terrible. As long as he makes no mistakes, the Prime Minister will always be in his pocket."

thing, the Doomsday Party...why? Do you want to assassinate him?"

"Assassination is too low-level. We have a better way."

Mr. Butler said calmly: "The prime minister is appointed by the king. As long as he gets the support of the king, changing the prime minister is just a piece of cake. Are you right?"

"Can you get the king's support?!"

Mosley's eyes widened:

"How can this be!"
