Everyone has an imperial dream, and Xiao Lotian is no exception. It is good to be an emperor, the son of God, to rule all the people on behalf of heaven, and all the people within the territory must submit to him.

Endless power, limited constraints, subordinates are like rain, fierce generals are like clouds! Endless delicacies from the mountains and seas, endless silk and satin, and there are character beauties in the harem who can't sleep for a lifetime.

Doing the best of the people of the world to support one person, talking and laughing can decide the life and death of millions of people, and with a wave of the hand, countless small countries can be destroyed.

This is the pinnacle of the human world, and who else can compare to this blessing except the heaven or the paradise depicted by religion?

Not tempted is fake, Xiao Lotian is also a layman in the red dust, he wants to eat two more bites when he sees food and wine, he wants to enjoy it when he sees the gorgeous palace, and he has to flutter and flutter when he sees the beautiful character.

But the biggest difference between a hero and a bear is that he knows how to advance and retreat, and he knows how to introspect! When a hero sees honey, he can also see a knife stained with honey, while a bear doesn't care about anything when he sees honey.

Knowing how to advance and not knowing how to retreat, this is a huge watershed between the mediocre and the capable, when greed and stupidity blind people's hearts, the higher you climb, the worse you fall in the end.

When mankind entered the second industrial revolution, the power of war began to increase exponentially with the addition of scientific and technological power, and the birth of more new industries forced countries to start extensive compulsory education, otherwise there would not be so many qualified workers to work.

Education has opened up the wisdom of the people, high-tech weapons have armed the hands of the weak, and ancient soldiers who want to play well with swords, guns, swords and halberds cannot do without more than ten years of hard training.

But when the workers' movement began, any worker could learn to operate a rifle in a matter of minutes, and a martial arts master could be killed with the pull of the trigger.

Chaos, it was a great era of extreme chaos, all kinds of ideas began to collide violently, all kinds of forces began to expand rapidly, when the productivity continued to increase, when industrial products could be obtained more easily.

Humanity has suddenly discovered that it is so simple to seize power by force, and as long as you have enough resources and productivity, your empire will continue to resemble a frenzied expansion of armies.

The strangulation of millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of people has finally appeared, the god is singing, the gods are crying, the sharp double-edged sword is not something that children can play with, and eventually the crown of blood will roll into the dust.

Not even the mighty German Empire, and little Wilhelm, who is now living with his grandmother at Buckingham Palace, the future Wilhelm II, lost at the hands of that era.

The last Tsar of Russia was even more miserable, and he was directly exterminated!

Xiao Letian knows very well that even if he ascends the throne, with his own ability and the memory of the two lives in his heart, he can mix the whole thing from beginning to end, and it is no problem to control the Chinese and even overthrow the Manchu Qing.

He is still sure that he will maintain the prosperity of the Chinese people for thirty or forty years. But what about after death? People can't be too selfish, they can't always think about the flood behind them! Remember that it is your own children and grandchildren who drown, and you can't be unkind to this extent.

Thinking about all this, Xiao Letian's tone became firm again: "Old Wang, we are not immortals, sooner or later we will go to see Lord Yama...... When we are alive, we can suppress all internal friction, but what about when we die?"

"The king is not me, Xiao Letian, and the courtiers are not you, Wang Huaiyuan...... Once a son of heaven and a courtier, at that time, it will not be our friendship after crawling on the battlefield!"

"You're afraid of internal friction? Yes, I'm afraid too! But you can't force me to be emperor because you're afraid of internal friction and civil war, right? Even if I can suppress internal friction, what about after I die?"

"At that time, internal friction will break out in a more violent way, and at that time, once my children and grandchildren can't hold it down, I'm afraid that civil war will be inevitable!"

"That's why I don't take that last step, the Chinese make us take the child with one hand, and the child will always learn to walk by himself, we can't hold him forever!"

"Now if I take a step back, maybe the child will fall a few big heels, which is the kind of internal friction, infighting, and civil war you are talking about...... But you also have to remember that a child can only really learn to walk after a setback and a fall!"

"The Chinese have to learn to solve their own internal conflicts, and when these people get together, they have to find a way to fight but not break!"

"This is the only way for the Chinese to mature, and it is the setback that he must experience!"

Xiao Letian grabbed Wang Huaiyuan's hand and said sincerely: "Lao Wang, I have heard all your hard work, I really remember, let's not mention these things again today, okay? It's half past two in the morning, and there is really no time to talk about it anymore!"

"Don't force me, let alone force me to death! You dare to commit suicide, you don't dare to commit suicide when I am Xiao Letian? You hurry up and tell Xiao Hexin to go, as long as you dare to die, I, Xiao Letian, will die immediately after you...... I don't care what happens to the Chinese people in the future, it's a big deal!"

"You ......" Wang Huaiyuan was so angry that he couldn't speak, he snorted and panted, "You ......don't stingy!

Xiao Lotian sneered, "Okay, Lao Wang, don't blow your beard and stare at your eyes...... I'm not an unreasonable person, and the number of factions you said is really a problem......"

"Well, how about you and I give way to this?"

"What do you mean by that?" Wang Huaiyuan asked.

"Don't force me to ascend the throne and become the emperor, okay, let me fight with peace of mind and lead the development of the Chinese people with peace of mind...... And I, taking a step back, I'm not going to talk about the 10-year term of the prime minister, okay? If you need me to work for a few more years, I can think about it......"

"If I stay in town for a few more years, maybe we'll be able to find a better way!"

The words have come to this, Wang Huaiyuan can only pinch his nose and admit it, although he did not achieve his expected goal, but it can make Xiao Letian promise not to take the initiative to retire and be able to control the Chinese family for a longer time, which is also a big gain for the emperor faction.

Things in the future, let's talk about it in the future, since Xiao Letian has loosened up, then he will act at the opportunity in the future, if he really can't do it, he will engage in military advice, and the yellow robe will also have to let Xiao Letian take the position.

"Okay! I won't force you in Europe during this time...... Do you really promise not to retire in 10 years?"

"A gentleman's words are quick and a whip! I, Xiao Letian, am also a big husband, why are I lying to you? Besides, if I lie to you, won't you still let me go when the time comes?"

"But then again, this name you gave yourself is really ugly! Emperor Faction......?

Wang Huaiyuan's eyes blinked, and he suddenly smiled and said, "Why don't you give us a name?"

"Shit! I'll give you a name? You just force me like this, if I don't put you in prison, it's worthy of our old friendship, hurry up and get out of work...... Also, don't bother Fang Guan, you machismo! Lay out the layout well, and use women as pathfinders!"

Wang Huaiyuan rubbed his temples and said extremely tiredly, "It's just a woman, you have given her so much power, this is already an exception!

"I still have the same old saying, after the end of this European mission, Fang Guan and the old prince must return to China! Even if you go to Nanyang, you can't stay in one place for a long time......
