Summon civilian system

Chapter 193

When Li Lin followed the strong man to his home, the system suddenly said, "Li Lin, your luck is a bit too much, you met this kind of person so soon."

Li Lin smiled, and then said: "Good luck, there is no way."

System: "Li Lin, how long do you want to procrastinate, just kill him, and then go back to enjoy the blessings, don't waste time here."

Li Lin shook his head, and then said: "It was agreed to go back in November, but it's too early to go back now, I'm waiting, I met some big shots."

System: "What you think is so beautiful."

This strong man did not tell Li Lin what his name was. Li Lin only knew that he was the commander of a thousand-man army, also called the Thousand-man Commander.

Along the way, many people who knew the strong man saluted him, and then the strong man greeted them.

Listening to the fragmentary conversations they had, Li Lin probably knew that this strong man was called: "Shit Thiessen."

That's right, the surname is "shit", not "shi". Knowing this, Li Lin almost laughed out loud.

This Mingyan Kingdom is different from the Teyi Kingdom where Li Lin is located. The status here is related to the position in the kingdom and has nothing to do with the title. Therefore, there is no aristocratic district, but there are still ordinary people and wealthy people. People deserve it.

On the contrary, it is like a hybrid of ancient China and western ancient times. Everyone wants to be an official. Why do you say that, because there is a nobleman on the road saluting this thousand-man commander, which is impossible in the Kingdom of Tei.

According to the law, nobles have no fiefs, and their salaries are distributed by the state every year.

But this does not mean that the power of the nobles is not strong. On the contrary, the power of the nobles here is quite strong. Although the king tries to weaken the power of the nobles every year and cultivate the power of the country, these nobles are all local snakes after all. And he is very smart and has never been weakened effectively.

In fact, the nobles still return to the fiefs handed over by their ancestors to collect taxes, recruit soldiers, and regard everything in the fiefs as their own private property, exactly the same as the nobles of the Kingdom of Tei, except that there is no law and the support of custom only.

I forgot to mention that the Kingdom of Teyi split from the Kingdom of Mingyan because of an order long ago, which asked the nobles to hand over their fiefdoms and troops.

As a result, a large number of nobles united to split a country, and another group of self-righteous nobles handed over their fiefs.

In this way, the former most powerful empire in this area was split into two kingdoms.

The system of the Mingyan Kingdom has become a bit deformed. On the one hand, the king hopes that this country will be similar to the centralized power system in ancient China. On the other hand, he must rely on the nobles born and raised in each region to control these nobles. Turn a blind eye to the collection of taxes.

On the one hand, they want to deprive them of everything, but on the other hand, they dare not.

However, this country has still done some things, such as giving surnames to government personnel and military personnel to shorten the distance with the nobles, so people with surnames here are all officials or nobles.

System: "This country is really deformed. It seems to be a county system, but the power of the nobles can compete with the country."

To put it bluntly, the power of this country is divided into two parts, one part is the national system, and the other part is the private soldiers of the nobles. Why this embarrassing situation is caused is because the Kingdom of Tei is watching, and the country needs nobles Only with their help can we compete.

This also led to the fact that the nobles handed down from the ancestors despised the officials in the government and the army very much. The natural arrogance of the nobles and the behavior of treating the surrounding areas as their own fiefs made the government and the army deeply angry.

No, after walking for a while, something happened that everyone around was used to.

As soon as Thiessen was able to see the door of the house from a distance, he found a few people standing at the door. These people all looked angry, and it seemed that they had been waiting for a long time.

"The yard is quite big."

Li Lin sighed, the area of ​​this courtyard looks very large from the outside, and this man is a member of the army, not a nobleman, and he would definitely not be able to afford the salary given to him by the state, so how did he come here? That's all there is to say.

System: "It must be corruption, otherwise, with the salary of a small military officer, I can't afford it in my life."

Then Thiessen ran over, and Li Lin quickly followed.

Shitison and the leader looked at each other for a while, and finally Shitison lowered his head and shouted: "Sir Knight Fengte."

The chivalrous man nodded, and then said with a smile, "Little Thyssen, should you pay this month's tax?"

Thiessen said: "My lord, what tax? My tax is all handed over to the country."

Feng Te said: "Don't pretend to be a fool, the yard you bought last month is the fiefdom of my family's ancestors, and this is yours, so you have to pay taxes to our family every month, no one is an exception."

Shitison knew the temperament of these nobles. It turned out that he paid money every year for his old house, and what happened this time was within his expectation.

After all, if you don't pay the money, you may die, and the army will not fight against the entire noble group just for you.

So Thiessen nodded, and then said: "Master Fengte, can I raise some money until the day after tomorrow, and I will send it to you personally."

Who would have thought that as soon as he finished speaking, there was a strange-sounding voice coming from the side.

"Give it to him, my lord? Have you forgotten the rules of the army?"

Hearing this, Li Lin noticed that Shitison's brows wrinkled at first, and then relaxed again, as if he remembered something good.

"Military rules? What rules? Tell me and let my lord listen."

Feng Te was not angry when he heard this, he turned his head and said to the person who came, "Where did this guy come from?"

The person who came said proudly: "I am Shitison's trusted superior, why don't you hurry up and salute me."

Feng Te laughed when he heard this, and said, "I dare to salute, do you dare to accept it?"

The visitor said proudly: "If you dare to salute, I dare to accept it."

At this time, Li Lin heard Thiessen talking to himself: "This idiot, let me see how he lives this time."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Te graciously bowed to the visitor, and then the visitor graciously accepted it.

Just when the visitor was proud, one of Fengte's servants who kept his head down and said nothing sneaked up on the back of the visitor, and then wiped his neck directly while he was unawares.
