457. You can sit on the sidelines in peace
Bai Yi faced the emperor's posture, it seemed that he didn't regard the other party as a ruler at all, but more like facing an ordinary commoner, such an arrogant attitude naturally caused the emperor to feel strongly uncomfortable, and he kept complaining about the palace guards, how did he let this guy rush in in a grand manner?
I was angry, but the expression on my face remained very calm, and I even followed Bai Yi's line of sight to look at a painting on the wall, as if nothing had happened, and said: "It seems that I hope that the master and I have similar tastes, and we can talk more about this." With that, he patted it and motioned for the maid waiting in the side of the study to prepare refreshments.
"And I won't use this set." Bai Yi casually pulled over a chair, sat down with a grin, waved his hand to the maid who was rising, motioned for the other party to go back, and continued to say to the emperor: "I know you want to see me very much, but you were busy before and didn't have time to come, you won't be surprised, right?" ”
Isn't it a hell of a strange? This guy doesn't even use the honorific of His Majesty?! Is there still me as an emperor in your eyes?! The emperor roared angrily in his heart, no matter how excellent his cultivation and acting skills were, a green tendon couldn't help but appear on his forehead, but he couldn't express his inner emotions on his mouth, so he could only take a deep breath and say in as peaceful a tone as possible: "After so many years, are you still wearing this armor?" ”..
The shining silver armor ten years ago is no longer brand new, and it has been left with a lot of traces by time, but it has not been replaced, which shows that the other party still cares about this armor given by himself, so maybe there is something to talk about later? He must have just been dissatisfied with my engagement with the church and wanted to be tougher in order to gain an advantage in negotiations, right? The Emperor pondered in his heart.
Who knew that Bai Yi truthfully said his inner thoughts: "In fact, a new and more powerful armor has been developed a long time ago, but many people are used to this image now, and it is not convenient to replace it." ”
These words immediately choked the emperor for a while, what is this guy doing here? Is it really intended to negotiate?
Bai Yi saw that the other party didn't speak, so he took the initiative to express the purpose of this trip, "I have completed the entrustment of the Diga plane, so according to the agreement, I will have a share of this year's armament supply." ”
The emperor was stunned for a moment, the original plan to lure Bai Yi to contribute on the grounds of arms supply was not for him to come forward personally, but to borrow the name of a certain bigwig in the military department, but this kind of thing is quite obvious, and it is not difficult for the other party to think of his instructions, so he replied: "This kind of inconsequential trivial matter can be put aside and talked about later." ”
"No, in my opinion, it's a big deal, it's important." Bai Yi said very seriously.
The emperor was speechless for a moment, stood up suddenly, and asked, "Are you serious?" ”
"I've come to see you in person, isn't it serious enough?" Bai Yi asked in surprise, then looked at the deflated expression on the other party's face, and asked, "Is there anything more important about me in your opinion?" ”
"Hehe, it seems that I hope Your Excellency has been in the laboratory for too long and has not seen the current situation clearly." The emperor finally couldn't bear to show a sneer, and was about to threaten him with a fierce voice, but Bai Yi took the initiative to interrupt him:
"Ahh So you mean the church? That's a big deal, but it's between me and the church, and it has nothing to do with you, right? You just need to wait for the news, don't worry, I will try to avoid affecting the innocent. ”
The emperor was stunned, what does it mean that it has nothing to do with me? Your two major forces are planning to come to my territory to make a full martial arts, and you still tell me to wait for news with peace of mind? What do you think of me? What do you think of the empire?
Bai Yi noticed the other party's gradually distorted expression, shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, and a big black book suddenly appeared in his hand, he opened the book very casually, as if he was looking at the content on it, and muttered: "History has taught us, and sometimes it is a rare happiness to be a spectator with peace of mind, what do you say?" ”
Of course, the emperor knew what this book was, and he also knew what kind of effect this book could play, and the momentum that had just been plucked up suddenly cooled down as if it had been poured cold water, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Do you really think that you can win this war without the support of the Empire?" Even if you can win, but what about afterward? Can your university still exist apart from the Empire? ”
Bai Yi didn't look up, but turned another page of the book, and said: "The book tells us that if we don't die, we won't die, and in addition, the book also says that the emperor is a tempting position, and there are many people who want to be it." ”
This is simply a naked threat, the emperor's face suddenly changed greatly, he could no longer maintain his previous anger, trembling and stretched out his hand to point at Bai Yi, squeezing out a "You!" from between his teeth. Word.
"Take care and wait for the good news." Bai Yi dropped the last words, put away the big black book in his hand, and swaggered away without waiting for the other party to respond.
The emperor behind him was already so angry that his whole body was trembling at this time, and he wanted to give orders to intercept him with all his strength several times, but when the words came to his lips, he was still forcibly pressed back with the last shred of reason.
Finally, the Emperor sat back in his chair and repeated deep breaths until his agitated mood calmed down a little, and then he summoned his attendants and said, "Inform the church, about..."
Saying this, he paused, and a look of hesitation and struggle appeared on his face, which was an expression that the servant who had served him for decades had never seen, and represented the strong struggle in his heart at the moment.
The attendant didn't dare to say much, but just stood beside him with his hands in his hands, waiting for him to make a crucial decision.
After a long time, the emperor clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth: "Inform the church that our previous transaction will be temporarily suspended, and pay attention to the wording when speaking, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." ”
Even though he was extremely angry with Bai Yi in his heart, he finally made a choice to favor Bai Yi, which seems to be very contradictory, but in fact it is not contradictory, no matter how arrogant and rude Bai Yi was before, the deeper meaning of his words The emperor can still hear it - since he asked the emperor to be a spectator at ease, it means that he can make the emperor feel at ease as a spectator.
This is the condition offered by the Void Walker, which may not be as tempting as the conditions promised by the church, but it is so realistic and appropriate, just like Bai Yi said, at this time, it is the greatest happiness for the emperor to be a spectator with peace of mind.
When the attendant heard that the emperor had made such a choice, he couldn't help but show a sad expression on his face, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, we still have three demigod-level powerhouses on hand, are you like this..."
"Hehe, what is a demigod to him? He dared to go to war with the church, which means that the true gods are no longer in his eyes, so what is the use of demigods? The Emperor replied helplessly.
"Understood." The chamberlain replied, bowing deeply to the Emperor as if to pay homage to the humiliation he had done for his country, and turned away.
As for Bai Yi, after visiting the emperor, he could almost go back to the university, and he believed that he was loud enough, so he found a magician and reported the situation to his teacher.
The magician was immersed in a scholarly work on earth, and after silently hearing what he had said, he raised his head and asked, "Didn't I say you should make a louder noise?" ”
"That's not loud enough?!" Bai also asked with some confusion.
"If I had been replaced, I would have replaced the emperor who ate inside and out, and it was best to attack the palace again and clean up the royal family, so that the empire itself would fall into civil strife, and those dukes themselves would fight, and the church would also be implicated, and you don't have to care about their sideline." The magician said casually, "You can also choose to support Vidnina's father, go back and kill him and his sons, and put your lovely little Nina on the throne, so that the country will be more obedient?" ”
Hearing the magician's thoughts, Bai Yi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, he was worthy of being a Demon God Emperor who launched many wars of aggression and established the Immortal Martial Martial Arts, this style of action, he really couldn't learn it at all.
"You really haven't learned me at all, okay, okay, get busy yourself, I still have to complete the technical research here as soon as possible, and play the gacha game as soon as possible." The magician lowered his head again and began to read.
Maybe the reason why he is addicted to gacha games is that he knows that he has different philosophies from his students, so he uses this to distract himself and not want to participate in those things, right?
Leaving from the magician, Bai Yi originally planned to go to Xiao Miya's side to see if she was okay these days when she was away, whether she was cute or not, it was already a little late, so he had to give up, just thinking about the war with the church that was about to start, he wanted to find someone to talk to more, and after thinking, he walked to the missionary's residence.
But before he could knock on the door, he heard the voice of three people talking from behind the door:
"Wow! This girl is so cute! It's comparable to an elf, it is worthy of being a new dark horse on the girls' appearance list, and her body development is also excellent, but it's a pity that this conservative school uniform can't highlight its advantages at all! ”
"Look at this, it's beautiful, isn't it? It's a pretty girl in the literature department, right? Tranquil and elegant. ”
"I care more about this one! The appearance may be a little lower, but these long legs, praise and praise! If you wear black or white stockings, you will be licked until you break your bones! It's that damn Dean of Hope, it's so damning! It's our class enemy!! ”
