Chapter 65: The Critical Call
"The most important thing is that politics is not static, the royal family is outrageously strong now, but it will not always be strong, there will always be a process from strong to weak, in the process of growing from weak to strong, in a few decades, we may not need to worry, but what about in the future? When the royal family is weak and other factions are in power, how will they look at the royal family? Look at this province with an army of nearly 300,000 people, countless cutting-edge weapons and equipment, and the secretary of the provincial party committee is a member of the decision-making bureau, but the candidate needs the land designated by the royal family?"
"If I were in power, I would do everything possible to completely crush the royal family at all costs, the empire does not need a behemoth that is strong enough to control the situation in the empire, but not by the empire, of course, such a thing will not happen in a short time, but people are born, old, sick and die, the emperor will die, you will also die, I will also die, and after we are all dead, who are you going to leave a powerful imperial family to control? Wang Bolong can, but the powerful inertia of the royal family obviously won't stop at Wang Bolong's generation, who will your grandchildren be? At that time, the royal family will be divided into several branches, unless you Wang Fuyu do not want children, otherwise your children and grandchildren, in the future royal family territory, will also be a branch that holds part of the power of the royal family, Wang Bolong, Wang Tongtian, Wang Kongqun, Wang Zhulu, their children and grandchildren are also one of the branches, the current strong feelings, after two or three generations, what will change, who can say clearly? If your grandchildren, great-grandchildren will still have such feelings for you and the emperor now, second uncle, do you believe it yourself?"
This is the first time that Lin Xuanyuan has called Wang Fuyu's second uncle.
At this moment, he is undoubtedly standing in the position of a junior, looking at the future and future of the royal family.
Wang Fuyu smiled helplessly, shook his head and didn't speak, Lin Xuanyuan's words were a question he had always deliberately avoided.
Will his children and grandchildren and the emperor's children and grandchildren still be united?
Will the children and grandchildren of Wang Bolong and Wang Tongtian be as united as they are now?
The answer is absolutely impossible.
It's nature, but it's more accurate, it's not the kind of environment that unites them.
At that time, the imperial family, unlike the rapid rise now, had already reached its peak, and even if they wanted to unite, they could not live and die together like Wang Fuyu and the emperor now.
It is inevitable that individuals have their own ideas and intentions, and intrigue is inevitable.
It's spicy, but it's realistic.
This is a process that any force has to go through.
"It seems that you don't believe it yourself. β
Lin Xuanyuan glanced at him and said softly: " In this case, have you ever thought that an extremely powerful royal family left behind by you will develop with inertia, and even become more powerful after a hundred years, and a hundred years later, the royal family will officially enter the peak period, but it is also a period when the unity is likely to be divided into several branches, and more importantly, at that time, it is estimated that the people in power have long been fed up with the royal family, a behemoth that can cause an uproar in the empire with a casual move, and other forces in the world are also spying on the interests of the royal family, and then the royal family will be more dangerous than before the return, and the whole world will even be the enemy of the royal family, internal and external troublesIn this complicated situation, the imperial family has not yet been able to centralize power, and how much ability and wisdom do the patriarchs of that generation of the imperial family need to ensure that the imperial family can continue to develop? Even if the emperor can live for a hundred years, he is afraid that he will be powerless in such a situation. β
Wang Fuyu was still silent and didn't say a word.
"So my suggestion is to cancel this conscription, at the very least, to reduce the scale of the conscription, 80,000, this number can already be completed here, in addition, economic assistance can also be less, the royal family wants to inherit for a long time in the future, it is necessary to create a situation of interdependence between the imperial family and the Shenzhou Empire, at the very least, but also to let the imperial authorities realize that the imperial family is reliable, because the imperial family needs their support, otherwise once the imperial family has nothing to ask for the empire, why will the other party let the imperial family continue to existIn the eyes of those in power, uncontrolled means absolute danger. β
Lin Xuanyuan said slowly.
"You mean, it's best for us to retain a certain amount of strength for ourselves, which is enough to be feared, and at the same time give the empire a certain amount of space to hold us hostage?"
Wang Fuyu frowned, lit a cigarette, and asked.
"Yes. β
Lin Xuanyuan nodded: "It is necessary to retain strength, if all the strength is handed over, when the royal family's right to speak is weakened, no one can guarantee that the people in power in the empire at that time will not want to completely take the territory of the imperial family to themselves, we reserve the strength that some people with ulterior motives are afraid of, that is, tell them, don't act rashly, otherwise the price is something they can't afford, from this point of view, preserving strength is a responsible approach for ourselves and the empire." β
"But this kind of strength can't be too strong, we have the strength, it is a reminder to the people in power, but the strength is too strong, that is a threat, in my opinion, the future army of the imperial family, the number of people is about 150,000, is the most ideal state, you don't forget, once we return, this will become the new province of the empire, and the secretary of the provincial party committee will enter the decision-making bureau, and this candidate is determined by ourselves, in this way, the military and government have been firmly grasped by us, and the retention of 150,000 troops is basically close to the limit of the people in power, if there is more, Lin Qingtian can endure it, but other strong people may not be able to bear itγ β
"You do have a point. β
Wang Fuyu nodded, and then said: "However, my brother and sister-in-law should also understand these things, they still did this, they should have other plans, right?"
"What are you going to do?"
Lin Xuanyuan asked casually.
"I don't know. β
Wang Fuyu shook his head: "I didn't think much about the conscription, anyway, I think my brother should take this into account, alas, let me tell you, last time..."
"Stop, stop!"
Lin Xuanyuan had a headache and thought about Wang Fuyu's words, and said directly: "Then guess, what will the emperor plan?"
"Guess what? Go back and video call him directly, just ask if it's okay? I'll go with you. β
Wang Fuyu said casually.
Lin Xuanyuan nodded and snorted.
Wang Fuyu sped up the car again, and when the Porsche passed halfway up the mountain, he suddenly spoke: " But if I guess, it should have something to do with the phone call my brother made to Lin Qingtian, it is said that this conscription plan, Lin Qingtian did not accept it at first, he thought that the number of conscripts was too much, if the number of people was reduced, he could consider it, but then my brother personally called him, and then Lin Qingtian strongly supported this conscription plan, and ah, it is said that this plan, Xu Shangfeng and Xu Dongping of the southwest faction also disagreed, but failed to convince Lin Qingtian, tsk, on their side, the internal differences seem to be getting bigger and biggerγ β
"If that's the case, then the content of the call is extremely critical. β
Lin Xuanyuan lit a cigarette again and said thoughtfully.
