MTL - I Am Louis XIV-Chapter 568 Tanabata Extravaganza (continued)

   Chapter 568 Tanabata Extra Story (Continued)

Mary was stunned for a moment. Although she was born in the inner world, the Mancini family's education for her was no different from that of the family in the outer world at that time. They made her into a docile lamb and a silent flower wholeheartedly. She has never been sensitive enough to politics, so she would do things like blackmail and put Louis under house arrest. Now that Louis said this, she could feel that Louis was very happy, but she didn't know exactly why she was so happy.

Louis didn't get a response, and when he saw Mary's bewildered look, he immediately understood, "Kings and churches often refer to people as beasts, but this name, my dear, is not all contempt. Disgust and disgust are more similar to a practical statement, because when the wisdom of the people has not been enlightened, they have not received education, they cannot think for themselves, and all the wisdom is used in survival and reproduction. Kings, lords and priests deliberately condone this, because animals are better than humans at a time when human technology has not yet developed to such an extent."

   "For example," he said, "you've seen a farmer clear new land, haven't you?"

  Mary nodded.

"When farmers want to reclaim a new field, before the ploughshare and ox yoke have not been invented, they have to use manpower and sticks to knock, smash and dig the clods. This way of working is inefficient and laborious. It will also cause various diseases, and it is not impossible to cause death, and human beings are naturally fond of leisure, and if they cannot be forced to use punishment and the threat of death, they will never be willing to work.”

   "I heard that Mancini used serfs in the earliest days, and there were still many overseers in our castle at that time, but later..."

"Well, it's not your fault." Louie knew that Mary was talking about those revived corpses, and it was clear that the wizards had their own way of ensuring a group of hard-working slaves: "But this method obviously cannot be used in a Fifteen million or more black slaves, so the method adopted by the British is to use various means to kill their humanity, enhance their animality, and make their uneducated minds simpler and duller , they can't do anything but the most basic conditioned reflexes. For this reason, they even abandoned advanced machinery and iron and steel agricultural tools - you probably can't imagine that after five hundred years, in the fields and cotton fields, they will appear again slaves and wooden tools."

"so…"

"Well, what I did was to lift the black cloth covering their eyes, so that they could see the outside world and their own miserable situation, but, Mary, this is really a cruel thing. I have served many Irish people, but how could the English allow their former slaves to share their 'property'? Besides, there are very few children among the black slaves except those born of slaves. In order to hide from the public, my subordinates can't either. Give them too many privileges - they still have to work, age, experience, energy, all destined that not many people can come out."

"But will it be a good thing for them to come out?" Louis said as if to himself: "A mule, a cow will always live very leisurely and at ease, in their small minds People who have been living in the dark will never know what is freedom and what is life, and they will never find themselves dirty and scarred."

Louis still remembered how that black man, who was only half his age, but who looked twice his age, staggered in, fell to the ground in disbelief, and fell to the ground—even though he had already left Paris. After graduating from college, when he was frightened and oppressed, his first reaction was to kneel—not etiquette, but fear.

   After being allowed to stand up, he looked left and right in a daze, tears streaming down his face…

"They... almost all went back, and then there was war, with the Ansa people, and with their compatriots." During the slave trade, the British used to hire black tribal leaders to fight for them and loot slaves. Tricks, of course, will not be stingy with dividing black slaves hundreds of times their size. In English manors, slaves are used for several grades, from the most "proud" black housekeeper to the master's valet, The wet nurses and maids around the lady, and then to help in the kitchen, small laborers, blacksmiths, cattle herders, gardeners in the manor... The slaves who work in the fields are better than those who work in the cotton fields and sugarcane fields. You can use Tool slaves are better than ordinary slaves, and ordinary slaves despise those slaves with shackles and handcuffs...

It's ridiculous, isn't it, but really, when those black people who tasted true freedom and dignity returned to Africa, they were more painful and terrified than white people. The black army, they treat their "rebellious" compatriots even more cruelly and fiercely than the British.

   "So did they succeed in the end?"

"I didn't see it," said Louie, "but when I woke up I had the kids show me a map of the world—Africa is now divided into a dozen countries, some still British provinces, some The Commonwealth of Nations, and some are republics, or the Commonwealth of Liberty, and it seems that those worthy men have won a place for their descendants."

  Marie wanted to ask something, but suddenly stopped, Louis looked at her, "What do you want to ask?"

   "I don't know anything," Marie whispered. "Louis, I've caused you a lot of trouble."

"It's not a sin that you don't understand, there is no one born to know," Louis lowered his head, showing a rare look of pain: "Marie, I should have taught you, but at that time..." He was just a reckless young man Man, ambitious, looking into the distant future, but ignoring the people around him, Mary did not follow him, but he should have stretched out a hand and held her tightly.

"So ask whatever you want, it's my debt to you, Mary," said Louis, "you can always ask me, and I'll answer you, every question, no matter how many times, just don't let it go Me." He put Mary's hand on his chest - how lifelike the picture was, but there were only a few things missing, breath, temperature and heartbeat - Mary snuggled up with a sigh, her The body is incredibly soft, like a flower bud stained with morning dew.

   "So what kind of a dream is this?" she murmured, "It's not a dream, Louis, I know, because I'm not so lucky to have such a dream."

   "I'm a fool."

   This sentence made Mary laugh, "That's the fool I love the most."

She was about to say something--probably the same question just now, when she heard a soft knock on the door, and Mary jumped up suddenly--nearly fell, and Louie held her up, dumbfounded, and turned her to sit on the side. Next, before the children came in, she had already sorted her clothes and looked straight, with only a slight smile, no different from the noble ladies in those portraits.

  Before Louis allowed them in, she had time to reach out and straighten Louis's crooked shoulder straps.

  Louis held back his laughter. He didn't know why. After Marie woke up, she paid great attention to her image, especially in front of the children.

   "It seems that there is already a result." Louis looked at it and pointed to one of the children: "Uh, Louis, tell me."

   "You'd better call me Alain," said the kid—in fact he was in his thirties. "There's a dozen louis here."

The name Louis is quite favored by the French. After Saint-Louis, the Bourbon royal family has often adopted this name. Saint-Louis is Louis IX, and Louis XIV is the fifth, and later because of the relationship of the Sun King Louis XIV. , the proportion of this name among French men is 30%, and it is as high as 70% among the Bourbon royal family...

People say that in Paris, Versailles, Bourbon-dense places, you can be treated like a king for a few seconds with a shout of Louis - hundreds of people saluting at the same time... Most of them have excellent Face, tall and straight body, extraordinary temperament.

Alain is even the best among these people. He is often called the "Little Sun King". He also played the role of the Sun King in the university theatre company. Stopped: "By the way, I have to answer a question to my wife first."

Alain looked at Marie and was a little helpless. Of course they were descendants of Louis and Theresa, but this was a portrait of a wizard. In short, it was proof of the marriage of Louis Bourbon and Marie Mancini, that Said that in the inner world, they are a legal and reasonable couple - ah, anyway, Queen Teresa not only accompanied the king to the end, but also went to heaven hundreds of years ago...

   This painting was given to them by the descendants of Luciano.

"Mary, I know what you're asking," said Louis patiently, "and this starts with the end of Africa, when the British started to use black people against black people, they also had to give some power. , weapons and positions are given to their former bulls, horses and tools, but they should also think that those who are still human after all, not animals who will never learn conspiracy and strife, those black people who learn from them will eventually be returned to Without them—even in those lands that still belonged to the King of England, the Negroes could still secure their power by virtue of their numbers and the shamelessness and inferiority they inherited.

The most ridiculous thing is that as time goes by, some young British people forget where their ancestors' assets came from - they lie on the piles of black people's bones, taste the wine made of black blood, and have nothing to do all day- After all, in their clean and beautiful cities, they couldn't even find a single homeless person to show mercy, so they said, why don't we go to the black people, those former slaves, to show mercy?

   They don't know that those who are trudging through the dark and lingering on, as long as they give them a gap, they will do everything to tear the iron barrier to shreds. "

He looked at Alan, Alan nodded knowingly, and continued: "It was only 70 years ago that black people got the right to vote. Except for those 'good people' who are really unsophisticated, it is some candidates who cannot get the support of voters. this matter.

You probably don't know much about elections now, ma'am, so you can imagine a well-dressed politician coming out and saying, gentlemen and ladies, please choose me, I am the kindest, the most tolerant, and the most Empathically, as long as you choose me, I will make all your pain go away - of course, that's impossible. "

He suppressed a trace of contempt: "The suffering of the commoners was originally caused by them, high medical costs, employment-based security and fire brigade, inflation, monopoly, war, etc... But they can't raise wages and shorten working hours. , universal higher education, lower hospital charges...but black voters have a much easier time getting what they want than white voters, and they're more vulnerable to being deceived..."

"In the beginning," Louie said. "If black people are still so gullible, now..." He didn't know what to say. squatted."

   "It takes more money and support to put a black hero in a movie than to do anything useful for black or white civilians," Allan said.

   "But so," Mary now fully understood: "Isn't he feeding his hunger with painted bread?"

   "Some black people really like it." Alan said: "You can think of them as alcohol to numb their spirits, ma'am."

   "And some black people?"

"They can see clearly and feel disgusted. Your Majesty, you are right," Alan said. "They don't think that the little black mermaid, the brown Snow White, and the black Anne Boleyn are compliments and admirations for dark skin. A bit snarky and vulgar - it's just playing monkeys, those Brits still treat black people as animals without thoughts and memories, like a dog or a mule, a ball will make them happy for a long time, give Putting the wheat will make them forget the whips of the past."

   "It's a bit vulgar, but it's correct." Louis XIV nodded and said, "But this time, in addition to flattering the black people, the British also want to make fun of us."

   "They are getting carried away, Your Majesty." Alan said: "Now the director and producer has been arrested."

  Louis smiled slightly.

   "This gentleman's geographical and historical achievements have never been very good," Alan also smiled: "But there are really not many people who can clearly understand all the territories and territorial waters of Poland, Italy, Spain and France."

The blood of the Bourbon royal family in Poland, Italy, Spain and France has never been cut off from the beginning to the end. Except for the territories and colonies developed during the period of Louis XIV, these Bourbons, who have continuous blood ties with each other, have also traded. Over a small part of the country, it may be just an island, or it may be just a valley, and the only people who can thoroughly understand it are military scientists, geographers, and historians who specialize in this.

This director and producer is still cautious, but he can't stay in England forever, so he went to America, maybe in his mind, there was never a king of America, although it was founded by the French and the Indians Yes, but probably not going to fight over the Bourbons' Sun King.

Alas, they really didn't make a big deal, they just sent someone to break down the director-producer's yacht during the night, and then pushed it gently - and pushed it along with the people above it to the only French in South America. A territory - an island.

"Now he is charged with three counts of promoting kongbuism, insulting the royal family and state institutions," said Alain. "There may also be trespassing on private property, illegal possession of qiangxie, dupin, etc.," he raised with Louis XIV X. Similar blue eyes: "Your Majesty, I will shut him up for a hundred years."

"The people involved have also been blacklisted by Bourbon," he continued. "They'll find it hard to move in Europa...and America." Alain said in a complex tone: "They Probably won't understand - what your grandson, Louis XVI's signing of the 'Liberty Act' means to the people of America."

   "They'll just laugh at him for being hypocritical and ignorant," Louie said.

Alain originally wanted to ask—whether Louis XVI's actions were inspired by his grandfather Louis XIV, but when he saw those blue eyes with a smile, he was suddenly relieved, why did he have to get an answer, even if It was not at the behest of the great king, but also because of his words and deeds, that Louis XVI had such a noble and generous act.

   "One more thing," Alan asked: "Someone wants permission to make a movie of you and your wife... Generally speaking, we refuse..."

   "Then continue to refuse." Louis said: "Now is a good ending."

   A little late.
