A huge aura that seemed to be able to annihilate a person's soul suddenly emanated from Zhou Hao's body, covering Arthur tightly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhou Hao's breath control was very strong, and there was no trace of breath that disturbed anyone other than Arthur, but Keane, Potter, and even the aristocratic bigwigs in the entire hall all grew up and looked at Zhou Hao blankly after feeling the aura fluctuations, with shock and appreciation in their eyes......

Coercion, the purest and purest coercion!

This coercion directly destroyed all the persistence and pretense in Arthur's heart, and made him fall into a situation where he couldn't breathe and couldn't think.

What are you thinking?

Trade-offs can be a painful thing for everyone.

People always make choices between emotions and reality, being a person and doing things, which is also a kind of torture of their own hearts, and there is no right or wrong choice, the reason why we hesitate and hesitate is because we are considering whether we can bear the consequences of our choice.

Keeping his people shows that Arthur is a little indecisive in valuing affection over profit, and he must withstand the attack of hostile forces against his weakness of affection in the future;

Resolutely exterminate the clansmen shows that Arthur is decisive but a little unkind, and from then on, Arthur is estimated to be unable to get anyone's full trust, including his master - Zhou Hao!

There is no human nature in this world that is the most perfect, especially when considering human nature from a political point of view, what is associated with purity and purity are lambs, holy (dead) people, and so on......

Zhou Hao just asked Arthur to completely stop this trade-off of interests, and let Arthur torture his own heart: Just quit the exit, is it the original intention?

Zhou Hao can accept Arthur's repeated protection of the Bright family, but he definitely can't accept Arthur's tricks for himself. For example: I don't want to kill, but my master has to kill......

The bigwigs of the Bright Empire understood Zhou Hao's intentions, and they were also like this, and they expressed their admiration for Zhou Hao's ability to keenly grasp any opportunity to educate his apprentices.

Compared with Zhou Hao, what the elites care about is whether Arthur can maintain his heart under pressure at this time. This is important because Arthur will inherit the title of Prince Yu and take the helm of the Interstellar Union Bank in the future. A governor who is unable to maintain his true heart under pressure is definitely not in the interests of the empire, nor can he control the greatest authority in the universe other than imperial power - financial power.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!

Another way to understand this sentence is: Want to be a big man? See if you can handle the pressure first......

Whether Arthur really wanted not to kill or was just acting, but if he changed his course when he encountered a little pressure, this person could only hehe, the Empire of Light has never lacked idlers......

The entire hall was silent, and everyone lowered their breathing, everyone waited for Arthur to make his final choice.

"Yes!"

Finally, Arthur's bloodshot lips moved, and a simple word came out of his mouth. Keane and Potter both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and then they looked at each other with complicated expressions. Keane's eyes were slightly disappointed but more relieved, and so was Potter, just a little more glad!

Zhou Hao smiled slightly, and the terrifying aura in the entire hall also dissipated instantly in his smile, "Okay, anyway, this time they are provoking you instead of me, you say spare it!" ”

"But ......," Arthur said suddenly.

"But what? You have to think about it! Zhou Hao's eyes narrowed, his eyes quickly swept around the hall, and then landed on Arthur's eyes.

Zhou Hao's eyes were very sharp, and Arthur was very uncomfortable, but he still stubbornly looked at Zhou Hao's eyes and bowed slightly, "I hope the master will help me, I will block the Bright Ancestral Star." All the members of the family are self-reliant in the ancestral star as ordinary people, and those who are not of excellent moral character are not allowed to leave. ”

"Forbidden area!" After listening to Arthur's words, the word popped out of Zhou Hao's mind almost instantly, but when he saw Keane's suddenly very wonderful face on the other side, Zhou Hao reached out and knocked on Arthur's head a few times, "You are really going to make trouble for me, but you should still ask Your Majesty's opinion on this kind of thing!" ”

"Master, thank you!" Arthur didn't be coquettish this time, but stretched out his hands in front of his eyes with a very serious expression, and quickly turned around after a long bow to the ground, and respectfully saluted Keane's chest.

Potter no longer pretended to be confused at this time, but followed Arthur to do the same to Keane.

Now the Bright family has become a piece of the empire's cake, everyone wants to take a bite of this cake, and only Zhou Hao can come forward to save the Bright family as much as possible. For the Bright family, as long as people are there, there will always be a comeback. If everyone is gone, just relying on Arthur's father and son, it will not be possible to continue the honor of the Bright family.

Kean hesitated, and his eyes couldn't help but turn to the old people who were sitting next to Zhou Hao. It is not the emperor who can really make the final decision on royal affairs, but the royal council. And the people of the Royal Council who can be in charge are the old men sitting at the large round table at the front.

"Let me ask your opinion, what do you think the old man is doing? I remember that the code stipulates that the scope of the powers of the Royal Council is only the power of the crown prince to choose and determine the order, and they have no right to decide the affairs of the empire! Zhou Hao raised his eyebrows, and read out the general outline of the scope of the powers of the Royal Council in the code.

After hearing Zhou Hao's words, the old people of the council changed their faces, and they glared at Zhou Hao angrily one by one.

In the matter of the Roman family and the Bright family, Zhou Hao and the imperial bigwigs did not clash because they tacitly had the same goals, the same interests, so no matter what Zhou Hao did, the members of the council could definitely "tolerate" Zhou Hao with their own cultivation, but Zhou Hao's current practice of extending his hand to the power of the council definitely caused the anger of the council.

To put it bluntly, the Imperial Council is an electoral body set up by the most powerful families in the Bright Empire, and its original purpose is to avoid internal friction in the succession to the throne and ensure that every family has the opportunity to get on the throne.

This idea is good, and it does ensure that the Imperial Inheritance Struggle of the Bright Empire is missing in a relatively stable and fair environment. It's just that with the advancement of science and technology, the human lifespan of the Bright Empire has become longer and longer, and more and more abdicated Emperor Guangming, prime ministers, speakers, marshals and other bigwigs have entered the council, and the council has also become a base camp of conservative forces that can affect everything in the Bright Empire.

In the Bright Empire, whether it is the emperor representing the imperial power, the prime minister representing the executive power, the generalissimo representing the military power, or the parliament representing the legal power, they are all vaguely subject to the imperial council and have become the meeting point of all forces.

If you want to destroy a stable object, then it is better to destroy the intersection of various forces, without which the forces lose their constraints.

"Am I wrong? Now that he is retired, why not honestly find a planet to carefully cultivate an heir, but instead dictate the affairs of the empire every day? ”

Zhou Hao was worried that these old foxes of the Bright Empire were too calm and realistic, so that they couldn't find a reason or excuse to continue to attack. At this time, seeing that someone finally couldn't help it, Zhou Hao laughed a few times in his heart, and more than a dozen runes that amplified the negative emotions of people's hearts were silently pasted on Kean and the people who were sitting in the same row as Kean.

At the same time, Zhou Hao's divine consciousness was divided into thousands of wisps, and he quickly infiltrated the divine consciousness of the council members, imprisoning them firmly in their positions, unable to make a sound, unable to make any movements, and could only sit with a smile on their faces.

Emperor Guangming, Speaker, Prime Minister, Deputy Speaker, Deputy Prime Minister, Ministers...... These people have been raised from birth in the clutches of a group of old men, a lesson learned from Arthur and Joseph's fear of Carey Roman.

You are the emperor, he is the governor, and the other is the prime minister...... The career of the future is chosen by the elderly. If you have a profession, you will learn the corresponding knowledge, and the emperor's art, financial accounting, or military command are taught by the elderly, and even their wives are chosen by the elderly......

When they endured all the torture and reached the pinnacle of life, they found that they still had to obey the guidance of the old people, until they boiled their hair white, loosened their muscles, and softened their plantains......

Is this life meaningful?

No!

Kean and the others seemed to see that they had been judged by an old man with a stiff face since they began to babble, as if they had seen the scene where they had to report to the old man and write a letter of commitment to ensure that they would not have children......

"I agree!"

Keane couldn't resist the urge in his heart, and was the first to say yes to Arthur's request.

He was originally a soldier, and no matter how hard, tenacious, or other characteristics of a soldier's temperament, he had one thing in common - that is, in order to survive on the rapidly changing battlefield, a soldier must be resolute.

As for the emperor, more often than not, he is balancing the interests of all parties, and since it is balance, it needs more trade-offs, communication, and guidance...... Kean, who had just ascended to the throne not long ago, was at the time when the "inner demon" was at its greatest, and under the urging of Zhou Hao's witch talisman, he finally couldn't help it.

"I think this practice of the Bright family can be further promoted!" With Keane's speech, the Speaker also had the audacity to speak his mind.

"The government will make good arrangements for transportation and life!"

"The military will definitely do a good job of protecting it!"

The incumbents also don't know where the courage comes from, and more and more decisions are made...... Zhou Hao opened his body slightly to Arthur's side, put his arm on his shoulder, and looked at Keane and the others with a smile who were getting bolder and bolder.

"I think the term of office of the board of directors also needs to be bound by legislation, and the term of office of the board of directors is only a thousand years at most!"

Because the members of the council smiled at the speeches of themselves and others one by one, and even after seeing the encouragement and praise in the eyes of the biggest bigwigs in a trance, he finally said this sentence by magic.

Seeing this, Zhou Hao smiled slightly, and his mind was relieved to withdraw the confinement of the council members, and at the same time, more witch spells ...... Almost all the magic talismans and magic spells that Zhou Hao could use with the effects of encouragement, excitement, encouragement, and demagogy were all blessed to Kean and the others.

Don't be cowardly at this time!
