"The king wants to knight me?"

Zhou Li was wearing a long robe and holding a cup of wolfberry black tea. He looked at Ah Zi in shock and asked with a black line on his face: "Is he crazy?"

It’s no wonder that Zhou Li lost his composure. After all, the last time the king’s plot against him was revealed, he was ruthlessly plotted by Zhou Li. Not even three months had passed since today. The king suddenly convened a parliament and announced that he would be knighted, and

Invite yourself to the royal city to discuss the matter. You must know that being knighted in the Magnum Kingdom is a very serious and important matter. After all, the title of Magnum has real power, and the earl and above must be granted land.

What surprised Zhou Li the most was that Magnum III wanted to make himself a duke.

Duke!

That is a marquis with a rich salary and hundreds of miles of territory. He is a high-ranking noble who can exercise one-vote veto power among the sixty-six people in the parliament. That is the title that the old nobles have spent their whole lives pursuing. Even powerful men with a holy level

An existence that no one can hope for.

Now, the king is going to give Zhou Li, who has the title of real power second only to him, to Zhou Li, who just sat on his head and killed him. Some people think that the king wants to please the brave man. Anyone who knows the inside story will think that the king is

He has been controlled by Zhou Li for a long time and has become Zhou Li's slave to do such a thing.

"Driving away wolves and devouring tigers?"

Zhou Li frowned slightly and said thoughtfully: "That shouldn't be the case. This stupid move can only make him lose a lot of wealth and territory. I don't know if I am a tiger, but he doesn't have wolves under his hands. Those dogs

How can you still have the courage to deal with me?"

"I don't know either."

Ah Zi helplessly spread her hands. She was also shocked after getting the news. She reported the matter to Zhou Li immediately, hoping that Zhou Li could see something wrong. But now it seems that Zhou Li doesn't understand Magnum either.

What is the purpose of this move?

Just when the two were confused, a message was delivered to them from the Haiyin carrier pigeon. It was a letter from the Ayr Chamber of Commerce. The content of the letter was very simple, with only one sentence.

"The upper and lower parliaments have passed a vote to implement the Muchi Bill and prepare to encroach on the Muchi Republic."

After seeing this briefing, Zhou Li's expression immediately condensed, and a look of confusion gradually appeared on his face. After burning the briefing, Zhou Li sneered, looked in the direction of the royal capital, and raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.

"It seems like you are going to use me as a knife."

*************************************

The Republic of Muqi, a standard small country template.

The territory is only one percent of the size of the Magnum Kingdom, and the population is one thousandth less than Magnum. The territory is rich in "charcoal" used to provide energy, and the mineral resources are also quite rich. The Muqi Kingdom's

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and they look like a paradise. At the same time, the Republic of Muqi has a completely pollution-free natural environment and the world's best "Wanlin" scenic spot, which makes this small and beautiful country continuously rated as the No. 2 "Livable Country"

One person.

However, even in such a paradise-like country, the Muqi Republic has never developed its own magical technology. Even though it has charcoal, it does not have the ability to process the charcoal into high-grade energy fuel. Until now, the Muqi Republic has not

It cannot be called a developed country, and the reason is very simple and can be summarized in one sentence.

It is too far from heaven and too close to Magnum.

As one of the few indigenous peoples in the Northern Continent, the Muqi Republic was the first country to establish a republican system. But just when they acquired knowledge and assistance from the Eastern countries, the country was booming.

Magnum is here.

With an advanced trade union system, tens of thousands of powerful professionals controlled magical artillery to slaughter all the "savages" in the entire northern continent. Although the Muqi Republic has become a country, it has been "restricted" by the establishment of the Twelve Churches.

However, Muqi, who has always advocated symbiosis with nature, has never expanded the land and has always lived on the land they prayed to nature for.

Therefore, Magnum directly bypassed the Muqi Republic and directly expanded its territory to the northernmost part of the Northern Continent in less than five years. It directly occupied 70% of the Northern Continent that had never been reclaimed by anyone.

Occupied all the land. After fighting a war with the original suzerain country, Magnum directly established the country and established "good" diplomatic relations with the Muqi Republic.

The good natural conditions and rich resources of the Republic of Muqi made Magnum very coveted, but because of the existence of the Twelve Hours, Magnum has never directly invaded the Republic of Muqi.

However, those who are familiar with history know that the so-called inability to directly invade is just a fig leaf for a big country to be weak. Soon, Magnum used economic means to block Muqi’s external technological channels. The Eastern Kingdom was too far away

Being so far away, there was nothing they could do to help. Within a few years, the Muqi Republic, which was about to establish its own magic system, plummeted, and the magic system collapsed.

"However, what the Magnum Kingdom did not expect was that their cultural invasion was ineffective in the Muqi Republic and even backfired."

In the conference room, everyone gathered around the round table. Azi, who had been working hard on the relationship between the two countries all night, had round eyes and a cute look in a white uniform, which made the hearts of those around him ripple.

"Although the Republic of Muqi has not established its own magic system, they have a complete professional union. In the Republic of Muqi, one profession has the highest status."

Azi paused for a moment, then she clicked on the whiteboard, and a badge symbol appeared on the whiteboard. The badge was not the familiar bow and arrow or sword, but a figure holding a book. Azi pointed at the badge and told everyone

said:

"This profession is called teaching."

"The Republic of Muqi has a very high level of education. Every child in the Republic of Muqi enjoys free education from birth to the age of 22. The teachers union of the Republic of Muqi is the highest level in the world. The teachers who come out of here are

The worst is also gold level.”

"Wow, is it so powerful?"

Eluma on the side made a cry of surprise. You know, in this world, it is difficult for non-combat professions to advance.

"That's it." Azi nodded, then adjusted the frame of the mirror and continued: "What's even more amazing is that three teachers in the Muqi Republic have reached the brilliant level, and one teacher has become a saint. It is these four worthy

The existence of the unparalleled national warriors hindered the Magnum Kingdom's plan to invade Muqi with culture and allowed Muqi to be preserved."

"Three brilliant teachers have become the Minister of Economics, Culture and Political Affairs of the Republic of Muqi. In addition to their daily work, they use the power of the teaching profession to teach the new generation of students and make them become Muchi.

The mainstay of the Republic of Qi. And that saintly teacher is the Prime Minister of the Republic of Muqi."

Zhou Li stood up and said to everyone: "The Prime Minister has given up his name, so people call him Mr. Muqi. Mr. Muqi rarely participates in politics. What he wants to do is to use the Prime Minister's name."

Identity directly teaches the people of Muqi Republic to pursue the right path and not to submit to power."

"Although these four people in Rangmuqi are poor, they have all received a good education. Their cultural level is the best in the world, and their moral level is even higher than Magnum. It can be said that it is these four pillars that

It existed and preserved the Muqi Republic for more than a hundred years."

"But just yesterday."

Azi stood next to Zhou Li, like a father and daughter. She looked at everyone and said in a deep voice:
Chapter completed!
