Ji Aojian was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "The revolutionary movement is a high-risk cause, how can the ninth sister be allowed to enter such a dangerous field at such a young age?"

"What's small?" Ji Shengdian waved his hand disapplausively, "She's two years older than you." ”

"Third sister, the age is based on the age of the appearance. Ji Aojian said seriously, "It's like you're only sixteen years old, and you definitely won't admit that you're a Bensi person, right?"

Ji Shengdian's face darkened, "Who did you say ran to four?"

"Since you are only sixteen years old, how can the ninth sister be more than twenty years old?" Ji Aojian smiled, "Third sister, with the growth rate of the ninth sister in the past two years and one year, the current appearance is about twelve or thirteen years old, which is about the same as you before you came to Europe, right?"

"Twelve years old is not young, ambition is not old, since ancient times, at this age, the young heroes who worship the generals are endless. Ji Shengdian snorted, "Don't underestimate your ninth sister, she has also entered the heart of heaven and earth, and it is no big deal to walk on the European continent with her ability." ”

"Is the ninth sister already a generation of grandmasters?" Ji Aojian was surprised and delighted, and then sighed again, "It's a pity that the weight is a hard injury." ”

"It's okay, can't she run if she can't beat her, how many people in this world can compare to her body?"

"That's ......" Ji Aojian just nodded, and suddenly felt bad again, "But with the temper of the ninth sister, if the revolutionary movement enters a critical juncture, I am afraid that she will take the lead in the charge, so what is good?"

"Hey, after all, those are revolutions among Europeans, and she shouldn't be too involved. ”

"Also, why did you instigate that Spaniard to suppress the revolution just now?" Ji Aojian complained. "He's a master, if he meets the ninth sister. It will put a lot of pressure on the ninth sister. ”

"What's the pressure, is it possible that the two of them will face each other?" Ji Shengdian said lazily. "When Wellington defeated Napoleon at Waterloo, could it be that these two men were dueling one-on-one in front of the two armies?"

Ji Aojian stiffened his face and stared straight at her.

"Okay, don't stare at it. Let me tell you, in fact, the outbreak nodes of the revolutionary movement are controllable, and there are few unpredictable risks. ”

Ji Aojian asked curiously, "How to control it?"

"The suppression of the revolution requires funds, and the outbreak of the revolution also requires funds. Ji Shengdian replied, "You can't do anything without money." And the operation and circulation of money, that can be grasped. ”

Ji Aojian gasped, "You mean to say that all the revolutions in Europe, big and small, were manipulated?"

"In this age of firearms, the cost of equipment is far more expensive than in ancient times. Ji Shengdian said with a smile, "Don't you think that a group of people can make a revolution by casually going out for a walk on the street with their bare hands? If you want to compete with the regular army, you must be armed." You have to burn a lot of money. ”

Ji Aojian said unconvinced, "If the soldiers also join the revolution, the problem of weapons will be solved smoothly." ”

"The army joined the revolution because the government could not pay it. Ji Shengdian still smiled. "If the flow of military spending is not stopped, why should the soldiers rebel?"

Ji Aojian said abruptly, "It seems that it will be after a large-scale war." The collapse of government finances is the most ripe time for revolution. ”

"There will be no fierce fighting in Europe for the time being. ”

"If that's what you say. The ninth sister is still relatively safe. Ji Aojian lowered his head and thought about it, and remembered something again. "By the way, third sister, when you said that you wanted to contact Avalon Island when you came to Europe, did you have any contact?"

Ji Shengdian smiled lightly, "Avalon, that's actually an organization. ”

"What kind of organization is it?"

"In every geopolitical plate in this world, there must be a desire to integrate itself, and we can call this kind of thinking the way of hegemony. Ji Shengdian said, "And the group of Avalon is a group of strong people who have the ideal of hegemony and are committed to unifying the European continent gathered together. ”

"It's not easy for Europe to be united. Ji Aojian said, "There are too many nationalities, too many languages, too many cultures, and it is too difficult to integrate." ”

"Yes, these strong men fought in the north and south to establish a unified country, but because of the lack of a foundation for integration, no matter what kind of kingdom or empire it is, it will fall into division again soon after it is built, and even the illustrious Charlemagne Empire cannot escape such a short-lived fate. ”

"There's really no future for doing this kind of thing. Ji Ao Kendao, "And there is a pope in Europe, and he is even more unhappy to see that Europe has a unified royal power." ”

"Yes, but on the other hand, in the Middle Ages, at least the Christian faith gradually spread across Europe, and that became a unifying force. ”

Ji Aojian asked, "Then the people of Avalon, do they want to unify Europe through the Holy See?"

"Nope. Ji Shengdian shook his head, "The people of Avalon are strong men with the ambition of being a king, they will not succumb to the feet of the Holy See, they just want to use the power of religion. ”

"And how do they take advantage of it?"

"The strong men of Avalon reflected on their past actions and felt that force alone could not conquer people's hearts, and that the legitimacy of a united Europe should be found in the moral model of religion. Ji Shengdian paused for a moment and said, "So, the story of King Arthur in history, after Avalon's careful packaging, was born. ”

Ji Aojian knew that the point was coming, "What is the substantive meaning of this story after it is packaged?"

"There is an honest and upright king, and there is a group of honest and upright knights. This group of honest and upright people never wanted to expand their territory, but were busy looking for a relic, a cup of relic, to be rewarded and blessed by God. The only person who can really get the Holy Grail is the most holy and innocent knight. After the knight received the Holy Grail, he was elected king wherever he went. ”

Ji Shengdian smiled, "Do you understand?"

This story is about convincing people with virtue and constantly strengthening one's own moral cultivation. Ji Aojian replied while pondering, "When the moral cultivation reaches the perfect state, you can find the Holy Grail, that is, God's approval, through hard work." And the one who gets the Holy Grail. This, in turn, proves that he is morally pure and immaculate, and he can be elected king by the people. ”

"Not bad. This is exactly what Avalon wants to tell people: a saint who is a perfect moral model, plus a token that represents God's approval. is qualified to be the king of all Christians. ”

Ji Shengdian said, "In our Chinese words, it is called the inner saint and the outer king. ”

Ji Aojian asked, "Since this legend uses the Christian faith, why has it nothing to do with the Holy See?"

"Don't you notice that there is nothing in this story about the clergy?" said Ji Shengdian, "noble knights can achieve the royal cause through self-moral perfection, without the approval and help of the church. ”

"I think it's a really beautiful story. Ji Aojian thought for a moment. "But to become the king of Europe by such means can only be said to be too idealistic, too naïve. The core idea of this story has not been able to be generalized. ”

"If we want to unify Europe, we will naturally have to explore and try all kinds of things, and failure is inevitable. "After the tenth century, they did another great thing, that is, they instigated the crusade of the Crusades. ”

Ji Aojian asked. "Could it be that the Crusades also helped to unify Europe?"

Their purpose was to hope that a distinguished man would establish great religious feats by conquering the pagans, and thus become leaders of supreme prestige. Return to Europe to unite the hearts and minds of the people and establish a united nation. ”

"It sounds like a good plan, but it doesn't seem to have come to fruition at all. ”

"I just said that. Nothing can be done without money. Ji Shengdian smiled, "Avalon Island can certainly promote the knights of Europe to the east. But the army could not be fed without the financial support of Italian merchants, and the pope could also exert influence in this ranks. Therefore, the whole plan and action of the Eastern Crusade became a farce of competing with each other. In the end, instead of repelling the Muslims, the Crusaders sacked Constantinople, also a Christian world, dealing a serious blow to the foundation of the Byzantine Empire and laying the foundation for the future death of the Ottoman Empire. ”

Ji Aojian sighed, "The crusade of the Crusaders did turn into a joke in the end. ”

"So you have to know that there are three major powers in Europe today, Avalon who wants to establish a strong royal power, the Holy See who wants to maintain religious influence, and the capital groups that oppose political power and religious power. Ji Shengdian clapped his hands and said, "The entire history of Europe is composed of these three intertwined parties. ”

"In other words, this is a game between royal power, religious power, and financial power, right?"

"Not bad, not bad. Ji Shengdian smiled, "Do you know who the supporters of the Holy Alliance are now?"

"That's Avalon, of course. "I heard that they helped overthrow Napoleon. ”

Ji Shengdian said with a smile, "Napoleon implemented the Civil Code, and the money group was willing to support him behind his back. But he actually has the tendency to unify Europe, which will deprive transnational capital of the strategic space to dominate, so he has to abandon him in the end. ”

Ji Aojian couldn't help asking, "Since Napoleon has the potential to establish a unified European state, why doesn't Avalon support him?"

"That's because the French Revolution had destroyed the old aristocracy, and Avalon had already formed an inseparable whole with the royal aristocracy throughout Europe. Ji Shengdian said, "The European unity that Avalon wants is the unification under the leadership of the aristocratic elite, and he is not willing to give up power to those low-level mud legs." ”

"In that case, the Holy Alliance is indeed their best choice right now. ”

"That Spaniard is also a master of Avalon. Ji Shengdian said, "I suggested that he go to serve the Holy Alliance, and naturally it would be easy to help him establish his ambition." ”

Ji Aojian was puzzled, "Third Sister, when you say that, why do I think you seem to be doing the Holy Alliance a favor?"

"Because I've been exposed to Avalon, I'm already a part of it. Ji Shengdian said casually, "They also let me break into the Jewish group." ”

"This," Ji Aojian tensed, "won't you be known by the Jews?"

"The Jews have known for a long time. ”

"Didn't they react?"

"Avalon knew that I had become a prophet to the Jews and felt that I had succeeded. The Jews knew that I was into the heart of Avalon and felt that I was successful. Ji Shengdian spread out his hand, "Look, it's that simple. ”

“...... Third sister, you double agent is too powerful. ”

Ji Aojian didn't know what to say, he made up his mind, and remembered that the purpose of this trip was to talk about a transaction, so he quickly took out a document, "Third sister, I have a listing plan here, you can take a look." ”

"Oh, the Trans-American Canal?"

Ji Shengdian took it and flipped through it, looked up and smiled, "You just want to cheat money, you don't have to make it up so seriously, right?"

"I really want to dig this canal, not a made-up project. Ji Aojian hurriedly explained, "Third sister, do you think this business can be successful?"

"Didn't I just tell you about the triple realm of money operation, why are you still stuck in this kind of thinking of making more money?"

Ji Shengdian casually threw the plan book on the table and said, "I see that you have made a lot of progress over the years, and the most important thing for you now is to cultivate yourself and understand the way of heaven." If you are busy with these mundane things, your life level will become lower and lower. ”

Ji Aojian asked nervously, "Then what should I do?"

"That's a long story, I'll have to teach you slowly. ”

"I've long wanted to get your personal guidance, third sister. Ji Aojian rejoiced, "Third sister, when will you teach me?"

"You seem to have a lot going on. Ji Shengdian calculated, "That's it, you come over every weekend, and then I will continue to talk to you about life, about the realm or something." ”

Ji Aojian agreed and stepped back.

"Come back. ”

"Third sister, what's the matter?"

Ji Shengdian didn't speak, just looked at the top of his head.

Ji Aojian had no choice but to obediently put his head up, "Third sister, please do it." ”

After rubbing his head and heart for a while, Ji Shengdian's hand moved to his face again, twisted it fiercely, and finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted his cheek, "Okay, let's go." (To be continued......)
