The Tammy Imperial Palace Council, due to the health of Neckeron XI, the three-day court meeting has gradually evolved into a seven-day or even ten-day meeting in the past ten years, and in the last two years, it has become a monthly meeting once a month. However, in the past few days, the court meeting has been held every day, which makes the nobles and ministers who could have been able to sleep comfortably suddenly complain, because the founding emperor of the Tammy Empire set the time of the court meeting when the star rises, according to the time of the star of Is, that is, around four o'clock in the morning.

But in spite of this, no nobleman or minister dared to be late, for Cameron XI's temper had been getting more and more violent lately, and anything could happen if he was upset. Just three days ago, the Minister of Imperial Energy lost his official position because of a trivial matter in the eyes of the nobles, such as the ransacking of a resource star on the edge of the empire by interstellar pirates, and even his marquis title was stripped away.

Deprivation of titles, which is an extremely sensitive issue among the nobility, Cameron XI generally does not touch it, because the emperors of the Tammy Empire have always weakened the power of the nobles and made the nobles everyone in danger, but because no hereditary nobles have been stripped of their titles, the nobles can still bear it, but now that Cameron XI has opened this head, how can their future status be guaranteed?

But no one dared to intercede for him, and in the face of Cameron XI, who had almost lost his mind, they were not stupid enough to confront each other until now. In their eyes, Cameron XI can't be crazy for a few years, and when the new emperor ascends the throne, in order to stabilize his throne, he will definitely not be able to do such a thing, it can be said that all the nobles are now waiting for Cameron XI to ascend to heaven. And such a situation Cameron XI was not ignorant of it. So he's even more violent now.

With the rise of the star of Li, the nobles and ministers wearing blue aristocratic dresses and blue patterned ministers' costumes have all entered the council hall one after another, and the shape of the entire council hall is like a huge semicircle. A floor of Roman theater-like seating surrounds the entire hall.

The council hall is divided into four floors, and the lowest level has 1,700 seats, which is the seat of the 1,700 founding nobles of the original Tammy Empire, which was divided by Emperor Cameron XI. Nowadays, with the change of times, some nobles still occupy high positions and others have long since declined, but in any case they will have a place here, that is, the emperors have suppressed the nobles, but this rule has never changed, because the emperors know that only these vested interests are the best guarantee to support their dictatorship.

The second floor has 400 seats, and this is where the palace ministers are located. If you have both a palace minister and a founding title, you can also sit here, but usually it is not full, because some of them are the positions of the feudal officials. They usually don't stay in the Capital Star, and naturally they don't attend the court meeting every time, only those governors who return to the Capital Star on business will sit in this position to participate in the court meeting.

On the third floor, on the east side of the council chamber, there are six jeweled and gold-edged seats, which are the seats of the six marshals of the Empire. To the west, there are fourteen blue-black backrests with extremely high backs. Sitting there were the Fourteen Ministers of the Empire.

And on the top floor, there was only one throne erected alone in the northernmost part of the council hall, which was the throne of the successive emperors of the Tammy Empire, and no one dared to desecrate it except the emperor himself. Even the entire fourth floor is a forbidden area, and apart from Cameron XI, only two S-class biochemical ghosts who keep him safe at all times can set foot foot.

"Father, the ministers are already in place, you should go to the court." A middle-aged man in a bright red court gown with an extremely luxurious gold pattern was holding Cameron XI, the current emperor of the Tammy Empire, in one hand, and his body fell almost completely into the arms of this middle-aged but extremely handsome man with short blond hair and beard. It is clear that Cameron XI is now too weak to walk on his own.

"No hurry!" Cameron trembled and took the golden scepter representing imperial power from the hand of the ceremonial officer, and wore the crown that was only worn on formal occasions under the service of the ceremonial officer. The crown, which had been intoxicated in his youth, was now worn on his head, but it made him feel extremely heavy.

"Father ......" saw the appearance of Cameron XI, the middle-aged man's eyes were a little red, and he choked up and said: "I know that this sentence is very contradictory, but I still have to say it, you don't have to worry about it, let the sons share your worries for you." ”

"Kelifin, you are still too young, there are some things that you can't handle well, I want to lay everything in order for you while I'm still alive, otherwise I can't trust this empire into your hands." Cameron XI did not become as angry as the already terrified court courtiers imagined, and the emperor, who was more power-hungry than any other emperor, surprisingly did not reprimand the thirteen princes for their rebellious words and deeds.

After hearing the words of the old man in his arms, Keliffin, who had actually been shocked into a cold sweat, secretly rejoiced: "Sure enough, as Andrea's old fox said, playing the family card at this time will definitely be able to impress this old thing, if I dare to say this in normal times, it must be a reprimand, but today this old thing surprisingly did not reprimand me, but still looked relieved......"

Cameron XI was not actually a son-in-law, but he was helped by fate to ascend to the throne by his father at a young age of more than 900, and then in order to stabilize his position, he assassinated two brothers who had promised his father his father his life when he ascended the throne, and then imprisoned the two imperial uncles who had helped him secure the throne.

When he got old, he dismissed the prince many times because of his suspicions, which caused the eldest prince to die of depression, and he didn't have a good face for the other princes. Now that his twelve sons have passed away, only his youngest son, Kellyfin, is still alive, and he is about to die, but at this moment, he suddenly has a trace of illusion about the family affection that he originally felt was false, imagining that his filial son will remember him after his death, so that he will not become a lonely person after death, so this scene will appear today.

"Is the father talking about cutting the knight? Didn't the ancestors say that the aristocracy was the foundation of the empire, so don't let us dig our own graves? Moreover, when his father was in power, he also divided many titles, and Marshal Seymour was even named a duke from a commoner, since he wanted to cut the knighthood, why should he be knighted? Prince Kelifen asked with some puzzlement.

"You're still too young...... Cameron XI looked at Kelifin with some disappointment, then shook his head and sighed.

After hearing this, Kellyfin's heart was cold, and he knew that he had said the wrong thing again, no wonder Andrea's old fox had warned him not to ask too much about the political affairs of the court. Now it seems that this old thing sees himself too young and not old enough, am I still young at 20,000 years old? Keliffin was screaming in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on the surface.

"The old aristocracy has long forgotten the favor of our ancestors because it has been hereditary for too long, they take everything we have given them for granted, and once we touch their interests, we will resist desperately like stepping on our tails, what is the use of such nobles? The new nobles are grateful to our Cameron family because they have recently been divided and they are originally commoners, and the corruption in the empire has been extremely serious recently, and the new nobles can let those civilians who are already on the verge of breaking out see the hope of being promoted to the top and then relieve some of the contradictions, and you can also use the power of the new nobles to get rid of the tumors of the old nobles to reduce corruption, which is a double thing! Cameron XI patiently explained.

"Erchen understands......" Kelifin had a teachable expression, and Cameron XI finally nodded with satisfaction: "You have to learn too much, I didn't have much time to care about you before, I will hand over some political affairs to you in the future, I hope you can really grow up." ”

Kelifin humbly lowered his head, but the joy in his eyes couldn't be concealed no matter what, "Are you finally willing to let go?" I've been waiting for this day for a long time......"

"The strength of the old aristocracy is still too large, so I was always afraid of it in the past. But I know my time is running out, and I must put the Empire's hidden dangers to rest before you ascend the throne, or ......" Cameron XI shook his head again, but this time he broke free of Kellyfin's embrace, took a pill from the court official's hand, and swallowed it in one gulp, and after a moment he was suddenly refreshed, and then he took the scepter and walked up the steps of the council hall step by step......

He used to swallow this fast-acting medicine only when his body was extremely uncomfortable, but now he did it almost every time he went to court, because he didn't want the nobles and ministers to see him weak, even though everyone knew he was dying.

There has always been a hidden crisis in the Tammy Empire, the emperor has always weakened the power of the nobles, so that the nobles can only find spiritual sustenance in other aspects, and then these nobles have abandoned the humility and etiquette of the nobles in the past, and become greedy and excessive for money, which eventually leads to rampant corruption.

However, the emperors of the past dynasties were afraid of further stimulating these nobles whose interests were constantly violated, so they turned a blind eye to this, and these evil consequences have accumulated until now they have grown into a huge cancer, once he thought that he could control it with his own ability, but now he is about to die but he does not have this confidence in his son. That's why he started the first step of cutting the knight with the help of pretending to be crazy and stupid, all so that his son could get a revitalized Tammy Empire. (To be continued......)
