‘Tsk… This isn’t good.’
Cardinal Andrea, who is receiving the attention of all the people gathered in the hall, expresses such dissatisfaction inwardly.
‘They knew that if they revealed their proposal from the beginning, it would be rejected, so it seems they set up a big hurdle from the beginning, but unfortunately, this side didn’t. I’ll have to change my plan.’
The characteristics of the majority of clerics can be said to be pure in a good way, and petty in a bad way, but these characteristics were extremely unfavorable in negotiations.
Because the negotiation method of bending one’s argument in such a way that one shouts loudly and then compromises little by little, even if the goal is to get what one wants in its entirety, even if the goal is to bend it in itself is a huge loss of face.
In a word, the proposal brought by Seonghwangcheong is a non-negotiable minimum condition.
If the Seonghwangcheong side did not compromise at all, only the imperial side would continue to compromise and defeat the claim? It’s nonsense. If this happens, the Empire will be outraged, the negotiations will end, and the war will continue.
Then the way to overcome this…
“As the representative of His Holiness Leo, I, Andrea, ask the Empire to ban heresy from electoral succession, to deprive the emperor of the right to vote, to completely restore the church that was destroyed, and to ensure that all church decrees currently existing within the empire are not abolished for any reason. We also want the relationship between the Empire and the Holy Emperor to be restored to the pre-Catholic period.”
This side has no choice but to greatly inflate the proposal.
The prohibition of the heretic post-electoral post means that the Seonghwangcheong, a foreign power, will control the privilege inherent in the electorate that has been passed down for hundreds of years, the deprivation of the right to be elected as an emperor of the heretical faith, and the desire to return the relationship between the empire and the Seonghwangcheong to the pre-war period. It means that they will still interfere with the empire, that the complete restoration of the destroyed church will be covered by the goods of the empire, and that the prohibition of the abolition of the church decree will guarantee the privilege of the church power.
Of course, there are only things that are difficult for an empire to accept easily. If you accept something in exchange for a price, you can handle it, but if you accept it without any price, the political system within the empire will be completely distorted.
“?!”
“…Hmm.”
The requirements agreed upon in advance are far too strong, so the clergy of the Seonghwangcheong looked at Andrea’s back in bewilderment.
In this way, if both sides make irrational proposals to each other, they can agree and cut the other person’s mood, and they can also take care of what they originally wanted, so they have something to say to their forces even after returning.
The empire’s envoys, who were a little uneasy about whether the ladies knew about this negotiation method, looked at Andrea, the representative of the Seonghwangcheong, with an expression of surprise.
“Wait! What is this now—”
“Enough, you didn’t get a say, so please be silent.”
Some of the clergy who were taken aback tried to argue with Andrea despite their rudeness, but they were blocked in an instant by Claude, who was watching their faces, wary of what the priests would do.
Originally, Claude was in a position where there was no need to treat clergy with such a low level of respect, but now Claude has to prioritize his status as an arbitrator rather than a king, and his authority as an arbitrator over his authority as a king. Restrain
“Keukheum, thank you for your opinion. Now all that remains is to narrow each other’s opinions through an appropriate agreement.”
“…Yes, I hope an amicable agreement can be reached.”
Damn it…
I wish I had kept my mouth shut for the back guys who had been unnecessarily following me, but the recent commotion made it clear that this proposal was arbitrary.
The imperial side will pretend not to see anything good when it presses me, but it’s not good to have obvious weaknesses. Wasn’t it a negotiation anyway? Hopefully this shouldn’t be a hindrance.
…………
“Ahhh…”
“You must have been very tired today. Now, please lie down here.”
“Thank you, there is only Chloe after all…”
Aww, crazy stuff.
I knew that negotiations were originally like this, but my head hurts when I experienced it myself.
Since we inflate each other’s demands several times over, when we look at it from the outside, things are so annoying that we stick out our tongues. It was to the extent that it looked like a bragging showdown between patients suffering from hypocrisy.
[Then, after carefully estimating the amount that will go into reparation for the damage caused to the temple and rebuilding the church that was destroyed, how about splitting the stake 70:100?]
[No. The temple was started by Seonghwangcheong first, and it was not a surrender treaty ceremony, so if the amount was the same, we couldn’t pay more. Must be at least 100:100.]
[Umm… I don’t like the statement that it started first, but I admit that it wasn’t a surrender treaty ceremony. In fairness, what do you think of 100:100?]
[Good.]
The negotiations went roughly like this.
One side pretended to be sincere and moderately revised the proposal, and the other side accepted the moderate correction and at the same time, feigned sincerity and moderately revised their own proposal.
It was as if I already knew the correct answer, and put the solutions together so that the correct answer came out. Would a professor or teacher feel like this when they see a cheating student?
Uduk- Ududuk-
“Ahhhhh…”
It’s been a long time since I’ve been sitting in a chair for a long time. The muscles and bones of her whole body pounded and spread coolness all over her body, even as Chloe was only pushing her with her weight.
“Wow… It’s been a while since I’ve heard this loud… hehehe, have a good rest today.”
Saying that, Chloe gradually moves the hand that was pressing down on his upper back. The coolness that started from her neck slowly spreads down her spine.
Ah… Cool… It’s a very moderate weight, enough to hurt a little bit.
It feels as if it has been optimized to ride on top of me.
“Ugh… Thank you, Chloe. As expected, you’re the only one—?!”
What is it, take a good rest and go.
Chloe’s hand, which started at her neck and went down her back, suddenly moves forward as soon as it passes through his tailbone.
“That… It’s been a long time since I gave birth… They said it’s possible again from today… So… That’s…”
Have a good rest…
Chloe leans against my back, clutching it with both her hands, and whispers in my ear.
No, this is not a break… Oops…
…………
“Then… I will resume the negotiations on the treaty ending the war between the Holy Empire and the Holy Emperor Qingdao, which were suspended yesterday…”
“…?”
Negotiations resumed at 9 am. Others look at me with a tired face and make a questioning expression, but soon they hurriedly look away, as if they thought it was not a matter of caling.
“The issues agreed upon by both sides until yesterday… The cost of restoring the plundered imperial territory and rebuilding the church should be borne equally 1:1, and the imperial side would not massacre or punish the nobles who had joined the crusade. If the plunder was not excessive, the crime should not be asked, the official faith of the territory of the empire should follow the owner of the territory, the Holy Hwangcheong side should recognize heresy within the empire as the faith of a brother, and the church territories within the empire are exempted from immunity and tax exemption All privileges except for will be maintained, the excommunication of Emperor Frederick will be canceled, and finally, only those who have the Canaanite faith can become emperors of the Holy Empire, and the emperor’s coronation will still be performed by the current emperor… Is there anything wrong?”
“”No.””
If one side had been even a little naive, there would have been a doctrinal dispute and a fuss saying that the other side was more wrong, but the representatives of both sides deliberately ignored and turned away from them, making it difficult to know what to give and what to receive in the negotiations ending the war. Took over the main content.
‘Well, they’re all just idiots.’
The official faith of the imperial territory follows the owner of the territory, and the emperor of the Holy Empire can only be the emperor of the Canaanite religion. This means that Seonghwangcheong could be seen as barely maintaining the superiority of Canaanism in the empire, but as you know, the feudal system can not be touched by any means as a lord as long as the subject keeps his duty.
In the direct jurisdiction of the emperor, you must officially believe in Canaanism, but you cannot have any influence on the vassals who follow the emperor or their domains. In a word, it means a bright apricot.
The same goes for the Empire side. Corrupt ecclesiastical states could be punished, and taxes could now be extorted from them, but still the ecclesiastical states themselves could not be abolished, and no punishment could be imposed on the apparently revolting nobles. Of course, it is not defeat, but the end of the war by negotiation, but it is clear that he rebelled against his lord, but the fact that he cannot be punished will in itself greatly undermine the authority of the emperor.
But neither side can say anything about this. Asking the other person for more means that you have to give that much value too, but you give back as much as you get, plus or minus zero. Because there is no lower benefit.
“Then, the overall content was discussed yesterday, so today we will fine-tune the overall content. The plundered estates and churches, the minimum conditions for the nobles to be able to ask for a crime, etc.”
“”Yes, Your Majesty.””
After several hours of discussing the details, the Holy Empire and the Holy Emperor finally came to a gentle agreement and signed an oath to end the document. This ended the civil war of the Holy Empire, which had been going on for over a year.
