Chapter 807

    Because Chechen and Natalie went into the palace to meet the king, viscount Hesse didn''t see him, which disappointed the viscount. However, these disappointments soon dissipated, because Pedro told him that he would be included again as a servant regiment and serve as a deputy head attendant.


    Although it was not the original command of Hessian mercenaries, the Viscount Hessian was easy to meet at this time. In other words, he has no bargaining power.


    Taking Pedro''s hand, viscount Hesse kissed again and again.


    "Thank you, deputy Colonel Pedro. I will serve you faithfully and wisely."


    "You don''t have to be wise, as long as you are loyal," said Pedro. "Besides, you don''t play under my command."


    Viscount Hesse raised his head in surprise.


    If it''s not under Pedro, it''s under bachit. Because the mercenary regiment has only these two deputy heads.


    Viscount Hesse was embarrassed.


    "Deputy commander, you know, I don''t deal with deputy commander bachit," said Viscount Hesse in embarrassment. With that, he held his two fists in front of his chest and twisted them off each other.


    "It''s not bachit. I''ll tell you the truth. My nephew Cherchen''s wife Natalie will be the deputy head of the mercenary regiment soon. I''ll arrange you under her command to help her get familiar with the things of the mercenary regiment. You know, this is also the old man''s care for young people."


    Contact Pedro just now, viscount Hesse immediately understood Pedro''s intention. But he is also a sensible man. He sees through but doesn''t say through.


    "Please rest assured, deputy commander Pedro. I will work well for deputy commander Natalie."


    After hearing Viscount Hesse''s words and seeing his expression that knew everything, Pedro laughed. He was about to praise Viscount Hesse, but suddenly he heard a passionate slogan outside.


    "Safeguard golden freedom!"


    "Poland is a noble Poland."


    "Down with the scum of the aristocracy."


    Pedro went to the window and opened the curtains. On the street downstairs, hundreds of nobles in all kinds of clothes walked by shouting slogans, holding high flags and sabers.


    Their goal is obviously the Jan kazimi Japanese palace, the political center of Warsaw city.


    "What happened?" asked Pedro strangely.


    He and Che Chen had just returned to Warsaw and did not know anything about the city.


    Viscount Hesse saw Pedro ask himself and went to the window door.


    For the Viscount who has lived in Warsaw for several months, the scene downstairs has long been commonplace.


    "Deputy commander, this is a demonstration by the aristocratic alliance against the power given to clay legs by King Jan kazimiz."


    Then Viscount Hesse further explained the cause of the matter.


    It turned out that in order to resist the invasion of the Republic by the powerful kingdom of Sweden and unite all forces that can be united, when King Jan kachmidge re ascended the throne in Lvov and begged the goddess of national protection to bless the Republic, he made a solemn commitment to all Li Shu participating in the ceremony: "At the same time, we also open a broad world to the people to serve the Republic. According to the articles of association of the league, we show and provide every common people a great opportunity to make achievements and win reputation, privileges and welfare. For this, the aristocracy should also be pleased..." In other words, when the people make contributions to the war against the Swedish invaders, they will be rewarded.


    At this time, Pedro interrupted: "what? Is our kind king ready to break the contract again?"


    Pedro thought that King Jan kazimiz broke his promise again, so he was "armed for salary".


    But unexpectedly, viscount Hesse told Pedro that King Jan kachmidge was surprisingly trustworthy this time, and the people downstairs didn''t come to beg for anything. They came to oppose the king''s granting of aristocratic rights to the people.


    "These people downstairs are aristocrats. They worry that once those farmers and small citizens get the aristocratic power, they will be on an equal footing with themselves. This is unbearable for their aristocratic dignity."


    "They?"


    Pedro opened the curtains again. He looked downstairs and sniffed at the demonstrators who began to walk away.


    Although Pedro is now a member of this huge aristocracy, which accounts for 10% - 15% of the Republic, he does not feel the same as the following people.


    Look at these guys downstairs. What''s the difference between what they wear and mud legs? Many of them are real people who are good for nothing, worthless and meaningful except one origin.


    Is this country better off without a group of little nobles who are just like them, good for nothing, worthless and meaningless except one origin?


    Pedro said jokingly, "Hessen, I really can''t understand them. Even if you say big nobles like me and Chechen make trouble. What are these poor people doing? Aren''t they poor, but people like us?"


    When Pedro said this, he didn''t want Viscount Hesse to say anything unique. He just felt it. But he didn''t expect Viscount Hesse to say something that made Pedro impressed.


    "Deputy head, you think they are stupid, but in fact they are very smart. These little nobles have a large number in this country, and their origins are different. They often fake their origins, and their quality is unclear. Some poor people can''t even afford to get married wine, but one thing is that they enjoy almost the same political privileges as the big nobles. Hey! A control In a wealthy and important governor''s area, the representatives of the great nobility have one vote of veto, and so do the small nobility in a remote village. Therefore, when the great nobility wants to pass a resolution in parliament, they have to buy the little nobility with money and other benefits. But now, those mud legs who are inferior to them on weekdays also have the right of nobility. They are also nobility, so the great nobility Isn''t the money used to buy them shared among everyone? Also, as long as you are a noble and you borrow from the Jews, the Jews can''t take your things as collateral when you can''t repay them. But how many of these loan Jews are not the white gloves of the great nobility? If the farmers become nobility, it''s not a disaster for them? He said In the future, we can''t rob the farmers'' land by debt. So don''t look at the people below. In fact, there are the shadows of great nobles behind them. "


    The words of viscount Hesse really refreshed Pedro. At this time, Pedro really felt that his political sensitivity was not as good as a poor Viscount Hesse.


    "Hesse, let''s have a drink. Have a good talk." Pedro put his arms around Viscount Hesse''s shoulder.


    He recalled that Viscount Hesse had made the same comment.


    In the distance, a group of dragon cavalry was marching out of the open gate of kazimi RI palace and rushed to the oncoming demonstrators.
