Chapter 554: Freedom? Equality?

Mobley was originally just a teacher in a small town near Marlow City, teaching children in the town day after day

That day, the town suffered a serious plague, and Papalia, as the inspector of the parliament at that time, happened to come to the town to investigate the situation.

It happened that Mobley led the townspeople to implement various prevention and control measures. Papalia saw that Mobley did a good job, so he kept him with him. After curbing the plague, he thought he was useful and brought him back together.

Mobley has been cared for and promoted by Papalia over the years, which is why he has his current status.

Because of this relationship, he is willing to take the blame for Papalia.

Seeing that Ethan seemed to want to blame Papalia, he was frightened and took the blame: "This is all my fault and has nothing to do with Knight Papalia.

Lord, you also know that Knight Papalia has always been loyal. If the lady has an order, he must follow it.

On the contrary, I knew that the situation was not right, but I didn't dare to report it directly. Everything is my fault. I am willing to accept any punishment."

"Haha!" Ethan was a little amused: "From what you said, everything is Angelina's fault?"

"No, no!" Mobley waved his hands repeatedly: "Of course it's not the lady's fault! If you have to find someone responsible for this, the first one must be me, and the second one is those foreign nobles!"

"Foreign nobles? What do you mean?"

"Lord, according to what we know, this organization was originally called [Ladies Association], which was founded by those foreign noble ladies, and the members in it are also foreign nobles."

As he said, Mobley pointed to the toy in Nicole's hand: "Nicole, little The toy in the sister's hand is the emblem of their organization. The venue is right opposite the parliament building.

Originally, it was just a place for noble ladies to drink tea and chat. Later, I don't know when, they invited the lady to participate. The lady was reluctant to go at first, but she couldn't resist their repeated invitations and finally agreed.

With the participation of the lady, they changed the name of the organization to [First Lady], and then all kinds of things happened.

At first, they were quite honest, just gathering, drinking tea, and at most organizing some small activities, such as doing charity, giving bread to the poor.

Later, I don't know what happened, they took more and more actions. They collectively arrested the mistress of a member's husband, and gave speeches at schools, and finally gradually evolved into an organization for women's rights.

They held the slogan of women's equality and openly demanded that the parliament must recruit an equal proportion of female members, and also intervened in various departments of authority..."

"Okay!" Hearing this, Ethan probably understood what happened.

If I guessed correctly, the group of outsiders began to be restless.

Think about it, they are all nobles, but the treatment is very different. How can they be content?

They were used to enjoying a powerful life in their original place of residence, but now they came to Maro City and found that they had less money and no power!

The local nobles occupied the parliament and various departments of authority, and the various power organizations were fully arranged, leaving no gap for them.

In addition to power, the local nobles also had bank shares, which could be said to be making money while lying down. Such good treatment would make anyone jealous.

If ordinary people were jealous, they could only watch, just like those goddesses, who could be admired from a distance but not played with.

But for this group of nobles, the goddesses in the eyes of the common people used to be their toys. Now they find that the toys they used to have become a luxury. The gap in their hearts can be imagined, so how can they be content?

However, these people are also smart. They know that the local nobles in Maro City are not easy to bully, so they play this kind of despicable trick.

If I guess correctly, this [First Lady] organization is just testing the bottom line of Maro City.

What students demand equal entry into the public sector, what female parliamentarians, everything is just a trick.

Ethan was sure that as long as this group of civilian students pried open the door of the power organization, the group of foreign nobles hiding behind the scenes would swarm in.

With their number, it would not take long for them to control all administrative departments of Maro City.

By then, Maro City would have to start reshuffling again.

"Ah..." Ethan sighed heavily.

Nowadays, the matter of [Ancient Eye] and the matter of orcs are already enough to give people a headache, but I didn't expect that there would be no peace in the rear.

The most important thing is that this group of outsiders is not easy to deal with. Not to mention their military strength, they have brought a lot of investment, added a lot of jobs, and played a huge role in promoting the economy of Maro City.

If you move them rashly, the consequences will be very serious. In professional terms, it is to destroy the business environment!

But you can't just ignore it. If you don't solve the minor problem, it may eventually become a major problem.

If it was before, you can still have fun with this group of people, let them do it, and wait for them to get into trouble and play big, and then take the opportunity to deal with them. It was reasonable and there would be no sequelae at that time.

But it is no longer possible now. The orcs are coming. Now we need a stable rear. Any factors that may cause unrest must be nipped in the bud as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Ethan smiled and said to Mobley: "I know, I will solve this matter. You go and do your own thing!

Keep an eye on public security recently and don't make trouble. If someone makes trouble, we will deal with it decisively if we can deal with it. If we can't deal with it, we will arrest them first and don't let the matter escalate. Understand?"

"Yes! Lord! I will arrange it now!"

"Go!"

After Mobley left, Ethan called Lanchester.

"Master, what are your orders?"

"Go to the Holy Light Sect and find Caputo." Ethan said slowly: "Tell him that the recent dancing of those outsiders has seriously affected the original order of Maro City. We need a typical example , kill the chicken to scare the monkey!”

"Yes!" Lanchester responded and was about to leave.

But Ethan stopped him: "Wait a minute, when talking to Caputo, pay attention to politeness and word choice. Be sure to emphasize that this matter is related to everyone's interests, not my personal interests.

In addition, it must not be conveyed through other people. You must meet Capudo in person before you can say this. "

Lanchester was stunned when he heard Ethan's instructions being so detailed.

The master's instructions to others only stated the purpose, and let others perform the rest on their own, but he gave his instructions so carefully, and even explained how to use the words. Do you think he is a three-year-old child?

Thinking of this, Lanchester's face suddenly started to feel hot, because he felt that he was being cared for like a child by Ethan, and he felt a little embarrassed. So he hurriedly responded and went out to do errands.

After Lanchester left, Ethan teased Nicole, then took a piece of paper and folded a paper airplane, and exchanged the emblem from Nicole.

This is a piece of white jade, with a female figure wearing an elegant long skirt and holding a torch engraved on the front. The woman looks confidently and firmly towards the sky, and releases a white dove with her other hand, as if she is yearning for a better future.

Turn over the back, and there are a few small words engraved on it in copperplate handwriting: Equality, Liberty, Fraternity.

"Tch!" Ethan couldn't help but snorted coldly, and then used his hand to crush the emblem to pieces in an instant.
