Chapter 1531: The Nightmare King from the Heart
It may sound a bit dirty, but this is certainly quite a mature political skill.
Anyway, at that time, the ten-year reclamation order had just expired, and the provinces directly under the royal family, such as Sereditir, Britark, and Ilkaran, had been fully developed. The "Imperial Noble Law" has also been fully implemented, and the noble lords of Oakland have been taught not to want to be taught, and they can't help but weaken their knees when they see the banner of the Holy Spring. The bureaucracy of the empire was gradually put on the right track. The bureaucracy under the centralized system can form a solid triangular balance relationship with the local lords and military aristocracy.
Ten years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the royal ruling system of Auckland's Holy Springs has stabilized, and Theodoro's role as the founding prime minister is naturally a meritorious achievement in the annals of history. He has fulfilled his historic mission. Of course, to put it mildly, he has lost his usefulness.
The purple-clothed prime minister was not only the enemy who killed Emperor Knoeus's good friend, but he also offended too many people for ten years, so wouldn't everyone be happy to let him leave naturally? Moreover, it is said to the public that His Excellency the Prime Minister has died with all his might, but I wonder what the Auckland nobles will think, thinking that His Majesty has finally woken up and recognized the true face of this "traitor", so it is possible to "eliminate this great evil for the world".
In addition, it would be much easier for the emperor to directly take control of this new political faction by directly eliminating the head of the central bureaucratic system, which had just become a system at that time.
All in all, it's not just killing two birds with one stone, but killing one stone with N birds, which is really a good skill...... It's a pity that power and trickery to seek the country is never a way to govern the country, which will only appear to be a petty family of people sitting in the supreme high position, and even a little dirty and obscene.
Karin was a little speechless. In fact, it is really difficult for her to accept that the almost perfect image of the king in her mind will have such a side. However, she also understands that a truly qualified king can't care too much about the means. Although it is shameful to use dirty tricks, as long as it is useful, it must be used when necessary.
β¦β¦ However, when it comes to Theodoro's handling of the same, even Her Majesty, the world's No. 1 Empress, who claims to be a politician, feels a little subtle.
Artoria suddenly spoke: "Since it has been done, it is the truth!" But will this affect his greatness? β
Karin looked at the knight princess who spoke in surprise, never expected that it was not Lu Xi or Hurricane who comforted her at first, but this "barbarian little" that she didn't like the most.
"I don't know how much of what the Nightmare King said is true! But even if it's all true, I think...... At least at that time, Knous the Great made what he thought was the most appropriate choice. Sooner or later, we will have to face the same situation as he did back then, do what we think, and then bear all the consequences. Artoria paused, then added, "...... Yes, if it were me, I probably would never have done such a thing. I myself feel that even the most heinous people deserve to be judged above board! However, this is probably just the spiritual cleanliness of a naΓ―ve and immature young man like me. Well, I'm just a newcomer learning how to govern the country, but what qualifications do I have to say anything about the kingship of Knous the Great? β
Lu Xi and his friends looked at Artoria who seemed to have grown up overnight in surprise, not surprised by the other party's knowledge, but surprised that the other party would have such insight.
Feeling everyone's gaze, Artoria was suddenly a little at a loss, and her face turned red: "People, people can't always be the stupid girl who was ignorant before." No, wouldn't everyone in Virgia be bothered? I know that I don't actually have the potential to become a king, what sounds good is integrity, and if it doesn't sound good, it is cherishing my wings and not knowing how to be flexible. However, when I became the crown prince, so many people cheered for me from the bottom of their hearts. Even if it's to meet their expectations, I have to work hard...... Well, isn't that a bit too smug to say that? β
Storm laughed, "No, not at all. Children who work hard are the best children, especially those who work hard to overcome their weaknesses and make themselves better for the sake of their own responsibilities. Your Highness Artoria, although we didn't get along much before, we will definitely become very good friends. β
"Huh...... I have to say, this is the most pleasing time I've ever met you. Karin sneered.
"I have one thing to say, I am above board, and I am not ready to please you." Artoria replied in the same cold tone.
"Woo woo woo, my sister has finally grown up...... Woo woo woo woo, I really hope mom and dad can see this day. Olivier began to weep and weep with tears that weren't there.
Don't say it, as if the two elders have already left, right?
Lu Xi said to Artoria: "Everyone's understanding of the way of kings is different, whether it is upright, impartial law enforcement, or power schemes, they are all means rather than ends. You've started to work hard for your subjects, looking for your own way of kingship, and you've begun to understand that the world isn't black and white, that's fine, at least I don't have to worry about someone saying you don't understand people's hearts in the future. β
Actually, I'm not working for the so-called "subjects...... Artoria lowered her eyelids and touched her lower abdomen.
Lu Xi said to Karin: "You are a descendant of Emperor Knoeus the Great, and now you have inherited his empire. Everyone in Auckland, and all of you and future generations, see him as a perfect example of a saint, but now, knowing that he also has mortal selfishness and resentment, shouldn't you breathe a sigh of relief? β
"Why do you say that?"
It shows that the glorious reign of the world is achieved through the efforts of mortals. Then the kings of today can also create the same great cause, of course, there is no need to be arrogant. Lu Xi smiled: "Perhaps, Auckland will reach the real peak in history in your hands." Isn't this the world's No. 1 Empress? β
"Cluck, cluck, ......," the baby sat on its mother's shoulder and waved its little white and chubby hand.
"Oh, yes, it's probably in Little Airy's hands." He smiled, "Of course, the foundation you laid for him is also very important." The first empress in the history of the Holy Springs royal family to be crowned with the title of 'Great Emperor', Karin, aren't you tempted? β
"Tut-tut...... That's you, it's still so natural to pat your ass so brazenly. If it were someone else, I would have thrown him away to feed the lions. Karin snorted coldly.
Hey, hey, aren't you telling the dark history of your founding ancestors of the Holy Springs Royal? Why did it become a scene of you little guys flirting and spilling dog food? The King of Nightmares probably felt that even if the gods were insulted like this, they were very angry, so he took the initiative to speak for the first time: "Okay, this is everything I know, I am very cooperative with these, to put it bluntly, it is good-looking and lively, but in fact, it is not the legendary big devil." β
Lu Xi glanced at the other party deeply: "Well, the back-handed god of Tianzi No. 1, although I subtly sympathize with you, but considering your character and bad taste, it can only be said that it is self-inflicted." β
"I'm certainly not a big devil, but I've never been in the good camp. Bad taste is also fun, and that's why I can continue to maintain a happy mood forever. Belat Mea smiled noncommittally: "So, is there anything else you want to ask?" β
"Actually, it's quite a lot, for example, what is the relationship between you and the goddess Fin, and the information about the snake of the world, but the time is really limited. So...... Say goodbye. Lu Xi made a farewell gesture to the Nightmare King.
Swift Wind glanced at Belatmea, who was still smiling and groaning, and with a gentle wave of his hand, the dimensional gate stood up next to everyone. In just a moment, her spiritual sense could already feel the spatial path sign of the main plane, so that she could successfully complete the opening of the dimensional gate. However, she knows very well that in the other party's kingdom of God, in a sense, all your senses and even your soul are under the control of the gods. Even if a legendary powerhouse who has reached the realm of the wind may be able to get rid of the coercion and power of the gods to some extent, it is absolutely impossible to feel the signal of the outer realm in this dream corridor to open the dimensional door...... Unless the other party has enabled permissions.
"Let's go, let's go, I had a great time chatting with you today, so there's no need to fight." The Nightmare King smiled and waved his hand: "But, I don't have any good habits for receiving guests, and if you want to stay, it won't do you any good." β
It's strange, if you hadn't (I don't know why) been threatened and confessed by Lu Xi, where would you be so easy to speak. Can't we see when we're all stupid?
The friends secretly slandered, but they were not ready to stay longer, even Karin, who should have a lot of enmity with the King of Nightmares, was not ready to continue to entangle with each other. They have entered the dimensional gate one after another, and Lu Xi, as a "coerc", of course, will stay until the end.
The friends are all neat, not pretentious and not pretentious, and there is a big difference from those bewitching sluts outside, at this time, of course, they will not be hypocritically "you go first", "I stay" so that there is no meaningless bullshit except for delaying time. Soon, only Lu Xi himself was left.
He gave Belat Mea a very businesslike smile and was about to leave, but he heard the latter suddenly say, "By the way, is that world the world you came from?" β
It took Lu Xi more than a second to realize that the other party was talking about his dream world. He was not surprised, since the goddess sisters of the Heavenly Palace knew their origins, it was not surprising that the Nightmare King knew about it, so he replied calmly: "No, it is just the world I imagined, a combination of a lot of brains. Anyway, how many do you see? Could it be that you have observed the whole process to the end? Well, then I'm not being looked down upon......"
As soon as he thought of this, Lu Xi couldn't help but hug his chest, took a step back, stared at the other party viciously, and spitted: "You are a voyeur pervert!" β
"There's no voyeurism! This great god wants to see it, and he always looks at it openly! She retorted loudly, and then said, "Besides, I'm not stupid. For people like you, although it was the influence of Tidlet's crystal illusion that created the so-called dream country, after all, the spiritual power and spiritual sense are beyond the level of mortals. The Dream Nation, built with the spirit and cognition of people like you, is very close to our Divine Realm in nature. The only difference is that one is autonomous and the other is unconscious; One can influence the outside world, and the other can only act on one's own soul. However, the realm is the realm, and that is the world that you yourself dominate. All peeps and intrusions into the realm have the potential to arouse the vigilance and backlash of the owner. If I go too far into it, and you think of it as an invader of the world, it will be too much to do. I, ah, just looked at it a little and then went back, oh hehehehe, the sea of stars? It's a lively world. β
"Yourself...... Dominate the world? Lu Xi muttered to himself.
"Sounds exciting, doesn't it? Moreover, your subconscious mind will influence the world all the time, and its development will also subtly develop in the direction you are most looking forward to. Because of this, it will be even more addictive. No matter how powerful a person is, even if he is a god, he has so many regrets, and he always hopes to make up for them. This is the truly terrifying thing about Tidlet's Crystal Illusion! β
ββ¦β¦ In other words, like Olivier, it is actually quite dangerous for them to penetrate their consciousness into my world. β
"Very dangerous! Once you enter your dream world, their memories will also be affected by your worldview, gradually forgetting everything about themselves and gradually becoming a puppet dominated by your dream world. Of course, it is also possible that your subconscious mind will be destroyed as a foreign body. Either way, it's all erased on the spiritual and spiritual level. If you really get addicted there, that's what happens to them. She smiled and said, "Heh, it's good that you have a group of partners who can trust life and death." It's really good. β
There seemed to be a hint of gloom in her eyes, but it was still replaced by a smile, and she asked with interest: "So, you actually used that kind of game-breaking method, which really opened my eyes." β
"Well, I have to admit that that world is indeed addicted to me, maybe some great universe will really turn it into a real world. However, since it is my dream world, everything depends on my brain, and in that world, if I do a lot of irreparable things, and do a lot of things with consequences that I can't even imagine, the world will not be able to maintain at least the operation of the world. β
"To put it bluntly, it's wanton sabotage, isn't it?"
"Yes! If it weren't for the will of the Great Universe that really didn't want to water anymore, I would probably have done even more. For example, the whole school was blown up. Torture all my dear friends...... But it wasn't just a shot in the head for Olivier. Lu Xi smiled, laughing so hard that the King of Nightmares couldn't help but shudder.
"So, that interesting world is gone. Oh, what a pity. She sighed faintly: "The real world is so immutable, your dream world is obviously much more interesting and energetic." β
"Don't feel sorry for it." Lu Xi paused, and suddenly said, "The real world, maybe one day it will really become like that." That's why I'm so desperate. β
"Oh, that's so interesting. Come on. Belat Mayer narrowed her eyes like a crooked crescent moon and smiled merrily.
Lu Xi was slightly stunned. He had to admit that it was about the most honest and cheerful smile he had ever had ever seen the Nightmare King.
"Well, then, leave it at that."
The Nightmare King watched Lu Xi salute him softly and walked into the light gate of the dimension, until the end, he still had this happy smile on his face. Of course, as Lu Xi's figure disappeared behind the dimensional gate, the mottled starlight surrounding the dream corridor also disappeared, and her smile became more relaxed.
"What a little monster." The Nightmare King wiped the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead and pursed his lips. Only then did he say in one direction: "You see, this little monster is so dangerous, but it is so much with my appetite, I now say that I am ready to withdraw my shares and stop playing, do you have any opinion?" β
