The Rotten Nobles Have All Been Beheaded, So There's No Problem with Them / Enshiodis: Meet Master Huang?

Ya'er opened the door with a hint of fatigue on her face, but she was clearly in good spirits.

"Ya'er, didn't you go to see the Doctor half a month ago? Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to buy the medicine."

Snowflake squeezed herself inside and found an Utopia brand television set and various books bearing the logo of the Utopia Publishing Company.

"Ya'er, what exactly is this...?"

Ya'er placed the plate on the table and held her Saintess's hands tightly with both of her own.

"Give me a little more time, I'm almost done learning."

"Learn... learn what?"

Snowflake picked up a book from the bed and flipped through it a few times.

Isn't this just a fairy tale book? And the writing style is quite simple; the author only wrote about a utopia.

Some of the tone is quite childish, but that's not necessarily a bad thing for a children's book.

But fairy tales can never change the state of the country.

Reality is not a fairy tale; the power struggles among adults are far more complex than this.

"Perhaps we can trust Miss Doctor..." Ya'er didn't say this aloud.

She is still struggling; accepting utopia is tantamount to giving up the ability to resist. Do we still have a voice in this land?

Doctor: You're half right. If you don't pay, you're powerless to resist. But if you want to participate in politics, you can take the civil service exam! It's not like we're forbidding you from taking it.

Can the supreme ruler of the Great Emperor truly build a successful small nation Siergrag? Do the scenarios depicted in these books actually exist?

Master Huang's speech was inspiring and highly engaging.

He spoke to slaves, he spoke to nobles, he spoke to all those who needed change.

From the distant Victoria to the wild Sargon Rainforest, the freedom Huang Cao spoke of transformed into a hard iron hammer, smashing all that was corrupt and unjust into dust.

Throughout that week, day and night, Ya'er seemed to see a powerful giant.

So gentle, so brave, so majestic.

Among the many videotapes of Huang Cao's speeches, one sentence struck Ya'er's heart directly.

I came, I changed, I have reshaped.

It is neither conquest nor slaughter, but change and reshaping.

After the transformation is complete, I will not deprive you of your sovereignty, because under the radiance of utopia, you will surely embark on the same path as me.

Because it is the nature of living beings, the pursuit of happiness is endless, and utopia is now synonymous with happiness.

To follow an ideal is far more powerful than any form of coercion; this is why the warriors of Utopia fight.

This was never just a slogan, because a slogan alone could not mobilize everyone in this the Great Emperor, much less unleash such powerful administrative efficiency.

Utopias conquer a region or country by first doing practical things and then promoting their ideas, because facts precede ideas and are more convincing.

Siergrag is too small, and the vision of the major families is too narrow.

In the countries conquered by Utopia, each country underwent a dramatic transformation. Kazidel was completely freed from its former poverty and chaos, Sargon no longer had slaves, and wealth was distributed evenly.

This is not a small favor for a select few, but a change for everyone.

"Enia, I hope we can understand Utopia. Becoming enemies will only lead to mutual destruction. I am trying to understand, I am thinking, and Miss Doctor is definitely hiding something from us, hiding some of the deeper workings of Utopia, but I believe she must have a reason."

The Miss Doctor did indeed conceal the fact that, as long as the exam is passed, locals can continue to contribute to their country.

Why not say? Of course, it's for the purpose of selection.

Because only by completely cutting off all hope will the nobles who truly want to rebel emerge.

If announced directly, Siergrag could join Utopia very quickly.

Of course, some people will inevitably take notice of Utopia's examination channels, preventing more talented people without resources from receiving the treatment they deserve.

Greedy and corrupt nobles certainly wouldn't pass the exam, but they would extract resources to prevent future candidates from even taking it.

Not telling them was also to make these nobles willingly turn against Utopia, so that Huang Cao could settle scores in the future and have a reason to take action.

"Ya'er... I believe in you. Without you, Siergrag wouldn't exist. You love this land."

Since it was Yelagond's choice, as Saintess, she would resolutely continue down that path.

Ya'er extended an invitation. "Enia... would you like to watch the videotape with me?"

Enia walked to the television and took a videotape from the cabinet. The videotape was labeled. "A videotape of the Lord's speech in the capital during the conquest of Gaul."

Gaul...

Enia had previously read about Terra Calendar; this once most powerful nation was destroyed by Utopia.

The two pushed the videotape into the player; the image quality was already quite good at the time, and Huang Cao's expressions during his speech were clearly visible.

Confident, without a trace of guilt, possessing a kingly demeanor.

On the television screen, the Utopia's Lord stood on a high platform, delivering a speech to all the Gaul, his voice loud and firm.

"Without a doubt, this is a war between emperors, a war entirely started by us emperors, a war of the strong preying on the weak, and you are the weaker party."

"You are certainly losers, but I have never considered it a failure. Your creativity and your nation will not perish because of this defeat. Therefore, I will become the new ruler of Gaul, bringing you new morality, new systems, and new ideas."

"I allow you to resist, I allow you to resist the oppression and injustice I bring, but I believe you will never do so, because I am perfect."

"Behold, the future will fulfill everything I have said today, for I am the one and only king of this land."

After the videotape finished playing, Snowflake and Ya'er were shocked by Huang Cao's honesty.

I am the King of Terra, therefore I am not responsible to anyone, but you are all my people, so I will love you.

This is war, a war between emperors. If you lose, you have to accept your fate.

As for moral condemnation of my war-making? Ask the millions of slaves I've freed.

There's no need to dwell on those trivial matters. I'm the King of Terra now, why should I worry about laws and morals?

What's the point of talking about morality with a feudal emperor like me? If you dare to say that, just drag me out and behead me!

Enia couldn't help but ponder, "What exactly does Siergrag want? Can the promises of utopia be truly fulfilled? We only have one chance to choose... There's no going back in this world."

"I'd like to speak with Miss Doctor, Ya'er. Can you get in touch with her?"

At this moment, the snow leopard's voice trembled slightly, for this was about to be a conversation that would determine the future fate of the nation.

Chapter 710 Because the corrupt nobles have all been beheaded, they have no problem.

A few days later, the Snowflake fell from the small house.

She didn't know much about this vast empire before, only that, according to Enshiodis, the country was basically a place where people were rich but foolish.

It's not exactly slander, after all, which empire would be willing to spend money on development in a conquered region?

Master Huang is the emperor of Utopia. As everyone knows, the supreme rulers of this land are all pretty much the same.

For this kind of emperor, war is about plundering resources and fulfilling his own ambitions; not draining the conquered territories dry is already considered a great act of kindness.

Unlike Utopia, they wouldn't focus on development. To the locals, wouldn't they just be seen as "foolish and rich"?

In reality, it was a "misunderstanding" with a touch of dark humor.

As is well known, every time Utopia conquers a region, it completely eliminates the oppressive class and saves ordinary people who were previously oppressed. After receiving the benefits of Utopia, these people may travel all over the world.

Over time, only the positive aspects came out; after all, for these ordinary people, wasn't this just happiness suddenly arriving?

As for the bloody side... since the nobles were all killed, no one mentioned it anymore, because there was no one left to speak out, so it was as if there was no voice.

It treats both the root cause and the underlying problem, and my ears are much quieter now.

"Saintess Excellency, I am truly sorry for not welcoming you properly as an envoy of Utopia. I hope you will forgive me. May I ask what brings you here? As long as you have Utopia's currency, anything is negotiable."

The Miss Doctor's sarcastic remarks did not annoy Snowflake, and Ya'er, who was standing next to her, did not dare to interrupt.

As the party who lost credibility, Siergrag naturally did not earn Miss Doctor's respect.

This is actually quite good. If Silver Ash had come to her, the Doctor would have already used his giant hand to throw him off the cliff.

Why did you have to lie to my man?

Although Ah Cao had contingency plans, and even Silver Ash's breach of trust was part of multiple plans, you still disappointed him.

Only Ya'er could ease the Miss Doctor a little. The Doctor also had control over the Abundance spores in Siergrag, so she had been watching Ya'er's actions these past few days.

Snowflake spoke in a very official tone, "I'm very sorry, but our country may not be able to condemn Enshiodis's breach of trust with your country. However... perhaps we can seek a suitable path. I would like to hear your thoughts."

The Doctor asked, "Can you represent Siergrag?"

Ya'er then walked over to Enia's side, saying, "We can represent you."

"I almost forgot, you are a predominantly religious country, where Saintess and gods are the highest authority. In that case, let's have a proper talk."

The Doctor also put away his earlier playful antics and began to deal with the two people in front of him in a formal diplomatic manner.

First, they used diplomacy before resorting to force, with Utopia making its most crucial demands.

"Release all military power in Siergrag, and supreme sovereignty over the area will belong to Utopia. No second military force other than Utopia's forces will be permitted. Furthermore, in the coming years, Siergrag's welfare benefits will gradually catch up with those of Utopia, and she will be granted Utopia citizenship."

"When exactly?" Snowflake asked.

The Doctor, "It will take at least ten years, because there are educational and cultural implications. What if you give all the benefits at once and then go back on your word? Therefore, we must make changes at a deeper level."

The Doctor, "Furthermore... religion must be tailored. The Manzhuyuan on the snowy mountain can become a cultural attraction, but it absolutely cannot become a spiritual refuge. Utopia does not need a second god, even if that god exists."

Religion must be abolished. It may become part of the culture, but it must never be worshipped, and no one should exercise certain privileges in the name of religion.

"I know what you're worried about. I will take care of arranging jobs for the unemployed believers, and we won't burn the scriptures. On the contrary, we will preserve them properly so that anyone can read them and we will not make any modifications, because I believe that the system and culture of Utopia are more advanced than those of Siergrag."

"Culture is the foundation and basis of every nation. We are not here to destroy. I will separate the two, and at the same time, we will crack down on those who use this culture to satisfy their own greed."

The Doctor wouldn't engage in nihilism; preserving history allows people to understand how bad the past was, thus making them cherish the present more.

This is why the cultures throughout Utopia are so vibrant, each contributing its unique energy in their faith in the Lord.

With the Miss Doctor finished speaking, the only remaining question was about Siergrag's side.

"Yelagond, I want to hear your holy words." Snowflake knelt before Ya'er, like the most devout Saintess.

Now Ya'er is no longer her handmaid Ya'er, but Yelagond of Siergrag.

Ya'er sighed deeply, "This is really a difficult decision... Enia, we came together, but in the end you still left the problem to me."

Then she turned to him, "Miss Doctor., if I agree to abolish the faith of the Manzhuyuan, how will Utopia replace it?"

Without a moment's hesitation, the Doctor replied, "If you wish, I can grant Enia the supreme authority in this region, bestowed upon her by Utopia."

"At the same time, the law stipulates that Enia's power is greater in Siergrag than in Yelagond."

The concept of divine right of kings, or the granting of divine authority by the monarch, places the law above faith and is the first step in dismantling religion.

Enia suddenly opened her eyes, pointed at herself, and exclaimed, "Huh?"

No, after Utopia arrives, shouldn't I be sent directly to farm and live a normal life as a woman from an ordinary family?

Why do I still have to go to work? That's not what Master Huang in the videotape said...

The Doctor seemed to have mind-reading abilities. "Because you haven't watched all the videotapes. A single speech by Master Huang often lasts one or two hours. Utopia has fought countless wars throughout its history. What you've seen is only a small part of the videotapes, not to mention that a speech is also held when new policies are promulgated."

After all, the newly freed slaves had limited knowledge and cognitive abilities, so Master Huang had to explain the meaning carefully on the podium, which took even longer.

"You can't understand the whole picture of Utopia in just half a month. In the countries that Utopia conquers, the good people will be protected."

"A very small number of capable and kind-hearted nobles are also protected. After all, the limitations of class are hard to overcome, and utopia is not a black-and-white world where indiscriminate killing is allowed."

"Kill those who deserve to die, but not indiscriminately. Don't become killing machines. We'll also make use of talented people. I didn't say this before because I didn't want you to have any illusions, but you seized this opportunity."

Chapter 711 Enshiodis: Shall we meet Master Huang?

"Take Victoria for example. After hundreds of years of selection, most of the nobles who originally had the merit of serving the emperor have survived. Although they no longer have their former status, they still dedicate themselves to the lord in various fields."

"This is the power of guidance."

The older generation in Victoria has long since retired and is enjoying their retirement. They live well in a specially designated area, eating, drinking, and having fun every day. As long as they don't break the law, they basically have everything they need.

This group's idea was: let the young people try their luck in the utopian bureaucracy; if they can succeed, that's a real skill.
