Section 48
The old duke woke up from his contemplation when he heard his son's call, he looked at Pedi and whispered: "His Majesty the Emperor trusts Gus El...... very much" He looked at his son, thought for a while and said frankly: "He is a pawn of His Majesty's control of the guard, and a person's one-sided words are not enough to threaten him, you must come up with ironclad evidence!"
Pei Di was stunned when he heard this, and his father's words made him think of many things in an instant.
His Majesty the Emperor wants to take control of the Guards?
A lazy middle-aged fat man came to his mind, and that was Pedi's impression of the Emperor. After thinking for a moment, he said in a tone of disbelief: "But this chess piece may have changed sides, father!"
"It's not as simple as you think. Duke Nick chuckled.
Peidi retorted: "But it's not as complicated as imagined, the position of chief of security seems to be important, but in fact, everyone does the same." β
"But now it's different, His Majesty the Emperor needs Gusel, at least temporarily. Duke Nick smiled kindly, "His Majesty the Emperor is more stubborn than expected, and he has already shown his attitude, a clear attitude. If I mention this matter again, or even directly mention the identity of Gusel, what do you think His Majesty the Emperor will do?"
Pei Di frowned when he heard this, and subconsciously wanted to speak, but suddenly found that he had nothing to say.
"This matter may be a top priority in your eyes, but in the eyes of our Emperor Majesty, it is a troublesome matter, he has his plan, and this matter is an eyesore in His Majesty's plan, he will subconsciously ignore it... Or obliterate!"
Duke Nick leaned forward slightly against the edge of the table, intending to have a good conversation with his youngest son.
"You haven't proven the identity of Gus El, and you can't prove it in a short time, if I go to tell Your Majesty the so-called truth in your mouth now, not only will he not take it seriously, but he will think that we are selfish and stingy, and he will think that I want to frame Gus El..."
"Butβ" Pedi wanted to speak, but Duke Nick suddenly raised his voice, "Of course, if the cabinet forcibly intervenes, it is also possible to prevent Gus El from being at the guard, or even let him step down." However, it will not benefit us, and we will lose the trust of His Majesty the Emperor. β
Pedi said stubbornly: "As long as Gus El steps down, I believe that the truth of this series of cases from the assassination of Baron Gordon El to the present will soon be clarified...... When the truth is in front of His Majesty, he has to believe us. β
"What do you think? It seems that you didn't understand me at all. Duke Nick smiled noncommittally, and he pointed to himself: "I can't do this matter. Then he pointed at Pedi, "You can't either..."
"Is it all you have to watch and be indifferent like this?" Pedi frowned, "What if everything Sean said is true?
"It's just the assistant's words now, Pedi, the truth of the matter still needs to be dug up, Gus El has a lot of problems with this matter, but..."Nick smiled and didn't continue, "The internal struggle of the guard has always been cruel, you don't want to be taken advantage of." β
Exploited?
Pedi was stunned, and his mind instantly came to mind with Sean, then Gus El and Bernie.
Then, there were the other high-ranking members of the Security Service.
These people are the root cause of the infighting in the Guards.
Of course, this is only the superficial roots.
Duke Nick continued: "When someone tells you the truth of something, in fact, it doesn't matter whether it's true or not, what matters is whether you want him to be true or false...... If the guard named Sean says or does something that works in your favor, you might as well try to work with him, it's a win-win. β
These words, though harsh and completely different from what the Petdy Knight Instructor taught, were very practical.
"I see, father!" Pedi was a little disappointed in his heart, but he looked sensible on the surface, he stared at the file bag in his hand and asked, "So, what about this file bag?"
"You can keep it, although it is a bit troublesome, these people are still very useful to us, but it is best not to contact these people in the near future!" Duke Nick instructed.
"Okay. Pedi put away his file bag, he didn't want to stay any longer, "If it's okay, I'll go first, Gus El has a so-called high-level meeting in two hours." β
"Remember, you'd better be on the sidelines of the current infighting in the Guards, I know your character best, although you seem to be indisputable, sometimes your heart is rarely full of justice, but this time is extraordinary, you'd better remember my words!" Duke Nick said earnestly.
"I'll take notice!" The embarrassment on Pedy's face flashed, he knew what his father was talking about about the sense of justice, it was a fight a few years ago.
......
......
In the private rest area of Lionburg Laubert, Duke Nick had just left when Gus El hurried over.
"It's over, isn't it?" Laubert was not so polite when facing Gus El, he lay casually in a chair, his tone majestic and unsentimental.
"It's going to be over soon, and the Supervision Section has no power to impeach me at this afternoon's high-level meeting!" Gus El replied cautiously as he stood next to the couch, the cool smell of the room making him a little uncomfortable after experiencing the sun outside.
"Yes. Laubert rolled over, he turned his face to Gus El, and said lazily, "You can do the specific things yourself." Remember, don't make that big moves, and if the cabinet forcibly asks you, I can't do anything about it. β
"They can't ask or find out the problem, Your Majesty!"
"That's the best!"
Gus Elle said: "Bernie has pleaded guilty to bribery, I don't know..."
"Embezzlement, what kind of crime is this?" Laubert turned and stared at Gus El, "You want to let him go?" Gus Air obviously didn't want to confront the people of the Supervision Section, which would not be beneficial for him to take control of the Security Service in the future.
But how could Emperor Laubert let him get his wish, in his eyes, the guard office only needs to be obedient, and it does not need to be too stable, because the more internal contradictions it has, the easier it is to control.
"With his position, to commit corruption is to be exiled to the border. Gus El continued.
"Immediately after his public confession, he will be hanged!" said Emperor Laubert, in a tone that did not question.
"This..."Gusel's heart froze, looked at the emperor who was pretending to sleep, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes!"
Laughbot was pleased with Gus El's usual obedience to orders, and he lay comfortably on the soft sofa.
In fact, when he was crowned emperor, his desire to control the guard department diminished every day. After all, the Guard Service is able to effectively divert and direct the contradictions that exist in the empire now.
It's really not a good thing to keep the guard in your hands at this time.
But who would refuse to be given authority?
"What else?" said Laubert, looking at the group of women frolicking in the room next to him, his eyes revealing a hint of impatience.
"What is going to happen to Sheriff Pedy, heβ" Gus El whispered.
Laubert suddenly opened his half-squinted eyes and glanced at Gus Ai, "What, you want to move him?"
