Chapter 1140: The Key

In the evening, after work, Kubal returned to Mags's manor, feeling terrible during this time, and he needed to talk to Mags.

During his tenure as Prime Minister of the Reich, Kubal was constantly figuring out what was behind each of his decrees, as well as observing his methods and ideas of governance.

This is not to say that Kubal is a fool, and he is also very politically effective when he can achieve the position of leader of the old party, especially when almost all of his subordinates are aristocratic groups who are proficient in infighting.

It's just that he has never decided something related to the fate of the entire empire as the supreme power wielder of a country, so he needs to learn, keep learning.

In those years when he was not prime minister, power was like a girl who tried in every possible way to please Maggs, and let him do it.

Every move was not carried out with anger, and the empire was easily pushed from a state of overturning to an intercontinental highway all the way away.

However, why is it so troublesome and difficult to do whatever you do?

He needed someone to help him, and it was clear that Maggs was the perfect fit.

There were no surprises to Kubal's visit, and he would come over whenever this guy was free.

Why Kubal came over, in fact, he also knew it, but he didn't say it, even if he said it, it didn't mean anything.

As a prime minister who almost single-handedly changed the fate of the empire, Maggs has a very unique perspective on the problem, which is what Kubal needs.

As soon as Kubal arrived, the two of them went into the study, and did not even eat dinner, except for the butler who brought in some tea during the period.

"I've had some newspapers and magazines shut down, but the problem hasn't gotten any better, and it's given me a more troublesome feeling than before. Kubal lit a cigarette and looked a little sad.

The assassination of Duhrin was originally just a small matter in his eyes, and it was impossible to rise to the national level, but the facts quickly gave him a slap in the face and beat him a little confused.

Three Member States of the IFTO that had already been identified had temporarily withdrawn from the IFTO meeting and had put forward the idea of withdrawing from the IFTO, while some Member States had expressed the need to postpone the meeting.

The reason for their decision was the news related to Doolin's assassination that began to circulate within the empire and in other countries.

In these news, the Empire is portrayed as an evil and terrible country, and extreme racism and religious persecution become two new labels for the Shining Star Empire.

Although many people know that these news are fake and fictional, they can't make everyone know the truth.

Large numbers of people believed the reports, and in some countries they held demonstrations to demand that their leaders quit the evil organization IFTO.

There is nothing Kubar can do to silence foreign press and publishing companies, but he has already sent people from the security committee to shut down some newspapers in China, and the main responsible persons have been arrested.

But a new problem arose, because he arrested these people, shut down these newspapers and media, and made more people wonder if the empire had done the terrible things in the report.

Some people question that there will be a seller's market, and all kinds of inexplicable and even comical and absurd "truths" will appear in society, and there will be this increasingly widespread posture.

Rumors spread throughout the empire, and they have arrested some active social activists, but they cannot stop the current situation.

The only consolation is that they know that behind all this, someone is planning it, not spontaneously.

Maggs thought for a moment in his mind, then shook his head and said, "It's not the right time, it would be better if it was earlier, or later, but definitely not now!"

He was referring to Kubar's search for rumormongers, including the seizure of newspapers and outlets and the arrest of the heads of the companies.

Either these things can be taken decisively at the initial stage of the matter to prevent the possibility of rumors from spreading, and it can also prevent the situation from festering further.

Or at the end of the day, when everything is white-hot, a thunderous blow can cleanly sweep away all the noise, and it can also make people shut their mouths in fear because of the shock.

As a result, Kubal chose the worst time to act, not only did not make people feel afraid, but also could not prevent the spread of rumors and the fermentation of the situation.

In fact, with Kubar's political ability and level, he would not have made such a mistake, he just suddenly became the prime minister of the empire, and he wanted to show himself, plus he had to deal with a lot of things that he had not dealt with before, and for a variety of reasons, he made it a little nondescript.

If he could calm down and deal with it calmly, this would not have happened.

In the final analysis, it is because after becoming the prime minister of the empire, there has been a slight change in mentality.

The embarrassment on Kubal's face made Maggs feel a lot happier, he and Kubal had been good friends since childhood, and the two of them had been comparing and competing with each other from the time they met until they were in their twenties and thirties.

Everyone wanted to prove that they were the best, and they loved and killed each other with their best years, until Mags suddenly rose to overthrow the old feudal dynasty and established a new era, and Kubal had to admit that he was still a little worse than Mags.

Some, just some.

There's nothing more satisfying than the defeat of an old rival, and Maggs laughed for a moment as he began to think about how to deal with the current situation, knowing full well that if it weren't for the fact that Kubal himself couldn't turn everything around in a very short period of time, he might not have been asked of him.

The key word here is "very short-lived", and in fact he was able to solve these problems if he was given enough time.

But the questions now are whether the IFTO meeting will be held, how long will the international face be lost, and some domestic problems.

If these problems cannot be solved in a short period of time, the prestige of the Shining Star Empire in the international arena may drop by a notch.

From this series of events, Maggs smelled the scent of an "old friend".

Breath from the Federation.

If there is one who is happiest in the defeat of the Empire, it must be the Federation.

The Commonwealth, which had just been sacked by the Empire, was facing unprecedented troubles, with domestic livelihood withering, economic regression, and a significant decline in its international status.

It is also said that two rebel groups have also appeared in the Federation, operating in remote areas under the slogan "Save the Federation from the hands of the dictator".

There are many contradictions within the federation, the national strength is declining, the empire is developing rapidly in terms of people's livelihood and economy, and its international status has surpassed the federation and become a first-class power.

Faced with such a situation, even if the Federation can't pull out, it will find a way to make some trouble for the Empire.

For example, in recent years, the problem of arms smuggling has become more and more widespread, and a large number of standard weapons from the Federation have appeared in the underground world of the Empire.

In the past, a gang with two or three pistols was able to dominate a region, but last month in a three-gang fight in a small southern town, fully automatic rifles and grenades appeared.

It is very likely that the passivity of public opinion this time was created by those people in the Federation, even if it is not, it is still the case.

He slowly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly, "Actually, it's not troublesome to solve these things, but we lack a core figure, and with him, other things are not a problem." ”

Kubal also breathed a sigh of relief, took two puffs of his cigarette and snuffed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, "I'm curious who has the power to solve a problem that even you can't solve." ”

Maggs raised an eyebrow, "Dorin!"

Seeing Kubal's surprised expression, Maggs laughed happily again, and without giving Kubal any chance to speak, he directly uncovered the mystery.

"Do you remember Ilorati?"

"What people are fighting for is good, people are always so strange and blind, in fact, they may know that what they are fighting for is worthless, but everyone else is grabbing, then they have to grab it. ”

Ilorati is the name of a noble lady, who was very famous in aristocratic circles when she was young, and many young nobles circled around her every day.

It's also interesting to say, she was definitely not the most beautiful among the nobles at that time, nor the best figure, not the biggest background, everything about her was very ordinary, but people were willing to pursue her.

By pursuing her, he proves that he is the best of this generation!

In the eyes of those people, she is no longer a "person", but a representative of success and status, everyone aspires to success and status, so everyone is fighting.

With Mags's explanation, Kubal immediately reacted, he was one of them back then, and he already understood what Maggs meant.

The real question that affects the empire now is not all visible issues, and it has nothing to do with the assassination of Doolin or anything, but whether the IFTO meeting can be held smoothly and whether enough countries are willing to participate in it.

As long as the IFTO is successfully held, some problems will be solved, and even some people who want to leave the IFTO and are about to leave will come back here.

"But what does this have to do with Durin?", Kubal asked, a little confused, "could he have used some magic to make those people steal their heads for our plans?"

"Magic?", Maggs laughed, "No, of course he can't do any magic, but he's a man who can do miracles, and you need to believe that!"
