"Nope." Maier looked at He Yan Zhiheng in front of him expressionlessly, "The law does not tolerate mercy, even if you are a friend, you have to do business if you break the law." ”

He Yan Zhiheng was entrusted by Alan to intercede for him this time. The Royal Bank and the Royal Chamber of Commerce have created a great deal of wealth for the Kingdom of Byron and its people, and have greatly narrowed the gap between the rich and the poor in the Kingdom of Byrons. Many people see the business opportunities in the banking industry and have opened banks in various ways to attract liquidity.

Alain was the first to open a private bank. He opened up the mortgage business and openly lent usury, which was illegal in the kingdom of Byrons. He Yan Ruizhi did not immediately suppress Alain, but waited for everyone to open the bank and learn from Alain's way of lending usury, so that Yu Mingli could wipe them out.

All bills are voided, and lenders are subject to a hefty fine, which is a minimum of five years in prison. All the people who opened the bank lost all their money, and they had to sell their houses and land to pay fines. The Royal Bank seized the opportunity to take possession of the property and land of these men at a fair price, and the land went directly to the Crown, while the property was sold or rented out to those who needed it, as appropriate.

He Yan knew that this hand had dealt a heavy blow to the merchants, landlords, gentry and old nobles of the Byronic Kingdom, and the people of these classes hated him to the core, and the common people applauded. All people hated usury, and it was immoral to make money by taking advantage of people's dangers, and the people would naturally be happy when usurers were severely punished.

He Yan Ruizhi thought it was a good thing, but he didn't dare to tell Maier about his plan. He knew Mel well and knew that he didn't like it. When he reported this to Myer, he was very worried, but to his surprise, Maier actually praised his behavior, and openly stated that he had just been thinking about how to get rid of these kingdom scum recently.

Maier also briefly talked to Kazuyan Ruizhi about his views on the Kingdom of Tayrong. He felt that it was necessary for him to engage in a war of public opinion in the kingdom of Taeyong to push those selfish local forces against the people. He hoped that He Yan Ruizhi could come up with a good way, and it was best to force them to rebel directly.

This kind of trap, which is obviously malicious, is what Maier hates the most. But now Maier wants to use this trap to kill his enemies, and he doesn't feel guilty at all, much to the shock of Kazuyan.

Actually, Maier didn't want to do that either. But apart from this method, he couldn't find any way to solve the problems that existed in the Tajon Kingdom. There is no doubt that the rebellion will cause a lot of casualties, but in order to uproot the corrupt forces of the Tajon Kingdom, Mel can only do this.

Before he sent Wei Xu to the Tairong Kingdom, he had already written a letter to Tengyuan. Xin went to Yaolin City before Wei Xu, he explained his thoughts in the letter, and Teng Yuan was also surprised by Meier's change, but then came a warm sense of relief. In fact, when faced with the same situation, rational rulers will choose to do so. They must lure the rebels into rebellion while they can suppress them, and put them out once and for all.

On the issue of the Tengzi generation, Xiaohu Connect has done just that. Although Xiaohu Connect is notoriously mean, in this matter, no one will call him despicable. Because Xiaohu is connected to the head of the Xiaohu family, the split family sent someone to assassinate the head of the family, which is a rebellion. Xiaohu Connectivity's design to lure the Assassin into his actions shows that he was aware of the enemy's intentions in advance, and his subsequent actions were calculated rather than framed.

Although the local forces of the Tairong Kingdom did not send anyone to assassinate Mair, their rebellious intentions were already obvious. Mel couldn't wait for them to actually raise the flag against them, when it was too late. If the enemy does not give up the rebellion, Mel can only find a way to push the enemy against the masses, and then unite the masses to destroy them completely, because this is the only way out.

Teng Yuan is an upright man, but he is a nobleman and a ruler. Rulers should be merciful and fair, but this does not mean that rulers should only allow their enemies to grow and be replaced. A man who wants to replace a benevolent and just monarch is definitely not a good man, and if the country falls into the hands of such a man, the people will certainly have no good fruit to eat. If the ruler really loves the people like a son, he should strangle such people in infancy, so that the people can truly live a happy and stable life.

On the day that Mel finished his meditations, Gray and Cloudheart went to visit him. Yun Xin was very distressed because of Maier's weight loss, and tears fell down. Gray was very happy, and he said that Mel had grown up again, and that it was a happy event, so what was there to cry about? Yun Xin didn't listen to Gray's words, and blamed him for not feeling sorry for his son.

The next day, Maier calmly took the women's clothes and went to the temporary Taerong fairy settlement. This time, he didn't have any sense of resistance, and naturally showed a women's posture in front of the Taeyong goblins. His natural smile made the Taeyong goblins stand for a long time, and after the display, all the Taeyong goblins present became his followers.

After arriving at the Taeyong Fairy Settlement, Maier simply changed into women's clothes. It was the first time Liu Xiu saw Maier wearing women's clothes, and he couldn't see that he was so bad that he even forgot that he was brought by Maier to develop new equipment. Mel didn't care, after completing the negotiations and completely conquering the entire settlement with his beauty, he took Liu Xiu back to Byron City directly.

The first thing Liu Xiu did when she got home was to hug Herin and say to her in the tone of the rest of her life: "Dear...... Trust me, I love you alone! I'm never going to like a man! ”

After Xiaoxiao found that Maier was no longer resistant to women's clothing, she immediately came to the door excitedly with women's clothing, and wanted to do something embarrassing with Meier, who was in a women's posture, which made him very embarrassed. He didn't refuse Xiaoxiao's request, but before changing clothes, he said to Xiaoxiao very seriously that this kind of thing can happen at most once a month, and it depends on how he feels, if he is in a bad mood, he will not cooperate.

In the past, Maier would also speak to Xiaoxiao like this, he didn't show any change in front of Xiaoxiao, but Xiaoxiao still noticed his change. Maier also felt the change in himself, but he didn't know where the change was. He asked Xiaoxiao if he had changed or not, and Xiaoxiao replied that he had changed, but he hadn't changed either.

Laughing, he said that in the past, Maier seemed to be jogging leisurely, and now Maier seems to be jogging, but he is not running casually like before, but moving in a fixed direction. Maier thought the analogy of Xiaoxiao was appropriate, and in order to reward Xiaoxiao, Mel wore women's clothes one more time that month.

The wives also noticed the change in Myer. In the past, Maier would only be genuinely kind to Xiaoxiao, but now Maier loves a lot, and in his spare time, he will take the initiative to find a wife, or chat and walk, or play chess. His change has greatly eased the tension in the side hall, and there are still jealous feelings, but the contradictions between several camps have faded a lot.

Yun Xin saw the change in Myer, and then realized that what her husband said earlier was not to comfort herself. She asks Gray what had changed in Mayer. Gray thought for a while, and replied with a wry smile that he had probably learned to work hard and give.

Back to business.

Maier did not pardon Alain because of his intercession, so Alain could only pay the fine honestly. Since Alain was the largest in his lending, he was also punished the heaviest. Fortunately, Alain has enough savings to not have to sell his property or even borrow money from others like everyone else.

Why is Alain so rich?

As we mentioned before, Xiaohu connected and instigated Chao Xin to buy grain from the Kingdom of Byron and its surrounding forces, driving up the price of grain. At first, the kingdom of Byron was severely short of food, and Alain saw this opportunity to hoard food for profit. When the Kingdom of Byron got rid of the food problem, Alan was still buying food. He sold the grain to Chao Xinguo and made a lot of money.

Some people may wonder why Alain, an upright person who refuses to cheat in exams, has become the way he is now. When everyone was still at the Leting-Sackin Academy of Magic, he and Yan Xinye saw that Alain was a person who despised life. A person who despises life, no matter how upright he behaves, his heart is twisted.

Alain doesn't care how others are doing, and doesn't even care about the lives of others. He went through hardships with Maier and the others at the Leting-Sackin Academy of Magic, but he was a bystander throughout, enjoying the protection and care of others in vain, without even the slightest thought of giving to others.

There is no doubt that such people are selfish, and a selfish person can stick to certain tenets and make himself look like a good person, but their hearts are always rotten. When you tear open their shells of hypocrisy, the stench that emanates from the depths of their hearts can smoke you to death.

The huge loss made Alain decadent. He left the business of the Chamber of Commerce to a trusted fellow, and every day he either drank at home or went to a tavern or something like that to get drunk. Prostitution and gambling were illegal in the Kingdom of Byrons, and in order to vent his dissatisfaction, Alan actually managed to find several underground casinos and an underground brothel where he could have fun.

On August 15, 138 AH, Maier was officially betrothed to Yu Mingli, Ista, and Lulu. After that, the royal family became in-laws with Yu Changnian, Minister of Administration, and Pershing, Minister of Finance, and Tar, the captain of the personal guard, also became Maier's brother-in-law.

In Meir's cabinet, the prime minister was his princess, and the ministers of administration and finance were his fathers-in-law, which meant that most of the cabinet was related to the royal family by marriage. Liu Xiu pondered that she might want to go with the trend and let her son get engaged to the daughter of the Maier family.

Gray's unauthorized engagement to Maier caused him a lot of trouble, so Maier strongly disapproved of his parents' unauthorized engagement to their children. However, when Liu Xiu came to him to discuss this matter, he did not directly refuse, but euphemistically said that if the children like each other when they grow up, he will not block the children's marriage.

Salin also thought about this, but as an Ilibi, he didn't want his introverted twin daughter to marry a man with many wives, so he didn't take action.

After getting engaged, Maier directly asked the three of them to move to the side hall to live, wanting them to adapt to the status of the princess in advance. However, Maier did not have sex with them in advance, because his wedding with the three was scheduled for April 139 in the new calendar, and Maier did not want the three to attend the wedding with a big belly.

Some people may ask, why didn't Mel get married to these three as soon as possible?

The answer is simple, because Meier's schedule for April 139 is already full, and he simply can't find time for the wedding. During the border battle, Maier, Salin and Wei Xu designed a wedge between the Chaoxin people and the Xiaohu family, and as soon as the caravan of the Chaoxin country returned home, the Chaoxin country used this as an excuse to declare war on the Xiaohu family.

Chaoxin and Xiaohu are not bordered, and now the Xiaohu family has lost half of the country, which further widens the distance between Chaoxin and Xiaohujia's territory. After the declaration of war, Chao Xin sent envoys to the city of Byrons, hoping to use the money earned from the Xiaohu family to buy the military access rights of the Byrons Kingdom and the Tairong Kingdom.

This is not a good thing for the kingdoms of Byron and Tajon. The Mingji are the most difficult major race to deal with in the New World, and there is no one, even the notorious Anwick are easier to get along with.

Anwick is fierce in life, worshipping only the strong and the brave, and they will only wantonly bully the weak. But if you show enough courage, you'll earn the respect of the people of Anwick. The paranoid Mingji people have no intention of respecting foreigners, and they wishfully believe that their faith is the only correct faith in the world, and that those who do not convert to their faith should go to hell and deserve to suffer in hell.

In other words, as long as you don't convert to the beliefs of the Mingji people, you will be a damned person in the eyes of the Mingji people. No matter how much they respect you on the surface, they look down on you in their hearts. If you make them feel upset, they may do something very extreme to you.

In the unlikely event that the enemy pretends to be a locals and clashes with the Chaoxin army when it passes through the lands of the Byrons Kingdom or the Taeyong Kingdom, then the Chaoxin army is likely to directly turn their guns and attack the Byrons Kingdom and the Taeyong Kingdom. If Maier does not give them military access, he will offend the kingdom of Chaoxin.

Directly across the territory of the Byron Kingdom and the Tairong Kingdom all the way to the south, it is the fastest road from the Chaoxin Kingdom to the current Xiaohu family. It is impossible for the Chaoxin State of the Labor Division to go on an expedition and make a detour to attack the Xiaohu family. Maier sent Foreign Minister Bolton to deal with the envoys of the state of Korea, hoping that the matter would be resolved peacefully.

Burton tried his best, but failed. Chao Xin insisted on passing through the territories of the Byronic Kingdom and the Tairong Kingdom, and said that if Mel did not give them military access, they would directly declare war on the Byronic Kingdom and the Tairong Kingdom.

Chao Xin seemed to forget when he said that their country was bordered by the Kingdom of Byron to the south and the Republic of Bukin to the east, and if they declared war on the Kingdom of Byrons, the Republic of Bjin would also join the war, and they would face a two-sided attack at that time. Because of this, Maier ignored the threat of Chaoxin.

On August 10, 138 of the new calendar, the state of Chaoxin declared war on the kingdoms of Byron and Tairong.

That is, the kingdom of Byron is going to war again.
