Chapter 1202: Empire Chaos
When Viscount Gwillis drove back a deacon of a great nobleman, he knew he had no way out.
Or rather, he was 'no way back' from the beginning!
Choosing the leader of a movement is a very tiring thing, especially since this movement also involves many nobles who only want to make money in the early stage, but in the middle and late stages, they have to continue to do these things because Viscount Gerwill wants to curry favor with the elves.
They had squeezed a lot of wealth out of many nobles on trumped-up charges, and it seemed like a lot, but if everyone shared the profits, the money was soon gone, but except for the mastermind, the others got very little, which made those people very unhappy, and this forced them to oppress the next family.
Soon after the campaign began, Viscount Gerwell understood that this could not be good.
The chief maid of the Principality of the Wailing Wind is right, 'wealth moves people's hearts', with more wealth in their hands and no corresponding strength in their hands, they will be targeted sooner or later, and they are now being targeted, and those who have set their eyes on them are still the 'great nobles' that they can hardly resist.
Many people chose to give in, and a few did not, and overnight because of the spread of the plague in the territory or the blood sacrifice of the devil, demons, and cultists, the entire family died, and then some illegitimate children who didn't know whether it was true or false came out and took over the property of those families.
At this time, he understood that there were those big nobles behind this matter, and maybe the royal family was also involved, otherwise, the emperor would not be able to ignore it.
And the family of Chief Charlemagne, if it were not for the protection of the ancestors, would probably be like those who refused to give in, and the whole family would die.
But even so, a lot of benefits were conceded, otherwise, those big nobles would not have been able to give up.
Viscount Gerwell can see that they are a group of 'scapegoats' pushed out by those big nobles, and all the notoriety is carried by those who are hungry for profit, and those big nobles just need to watch the profits gather into their hands like a trickle, and take the wealth away from them at the right time.
Those big nobles are more terrible than the monsters that eat people, because those monsters can only eat a few people at most, while the big nobles eat people and don't spit out bones.
The other nobles who were robbed of their wealth wanted to regain their wealth, they could only increase their efforts to oppress the commoners, and the oppressed commoners naturally needed an outlet to vent their anger, and these people were the 'targets' erected by the great nobles, as long as they took away the wealth they had collected, they didn't even need to bear any infamy.
It was only now that he realized how lucky he was.
If it weren't for the hard work to build a good image in order to please the elves, he would probably be one of the targets of abuse and hatred by the civilians now.
But now, his good name has spread, and with a little operation, it can even make people think that he was coerced by other nobles.
The elves were the only thing he could rely on now, and the only hope that could free him from the control of those great nobles, so now he didn't dare to act rashly and do something that would disgust his elven guards.
Now he has understood very well that the big nobles and the royal family oppress them, the small and medium-sized nobles, and they then oppress the commoners, which has become a complete biological chain in this empire, and those 'upper echelons' will never allow them to resist, even if it is only a sign.
Viscount Gerwell was deeply aware of this, so he chose to rebel against those great nobles.
Only by doing so can he become a great nobleman, and his family can be more prosperous, otherwise, they are just some 'food' that may be chosen by the great nobles at any time and then eaten alive by the great nobles!
"Don't worry, Sir Gwill, we'll be on your side. At this time, Luo Ze Shanlan finally showed a satisfied smile.
How did Viscount Gwell not know that he had now become a pawn of the elves in the game with the great nobles of the empire?
But he is willing to do so, only in this way can he open the door called 'promotion' that was closed by all the great nobles, and make his family one of the top families in this empire."
There is no doubt that the elves are full of disgust for humans, and when his elven guards first came to his territory, he often saw the disgust in the eyes of those elves, although it is no longer there recently, but the elves' hatred for the 'Kurkut Empire' is difficult to resolve.
The Elven King made an alliance with the former chief of their empire to protect his people, however, the elves still had a lot of disgust and hatred for their empire, especially nobles like him.
Luckily, he created a good image for himself and won this opportunity.
"Of course, I've always believed in you......" Viscount Gwillis squeezed a reluctant smile on his face and bowed slightly to his captain of the guard.
At this time, even if he didn't want to believe them, it was useless, he and his family were already desperate, and they could only fight hard and fight for a way to survive by themselves.
When the elf left the reception room, Viscount Gwillis was like a deflated ball, and he went limp at once.
He stared blankly at the ceiling, and there was a thought lingering in his head, he couldn't believe it was true, but there was plenty of evidence to show that it was most likely true.
The whole empire is in chaos, it is a mess, and after tasting the taste of 'wealth', do you expect other people who are as insatiable as him to return to the 'poor' life they once had?
Artistic paintings, fascinating gemstones, magical objects of great power, and so on, they all once had, and with them many, many beautiful and alluring coins...... But now, it's all gone!
The nobles who chose to give in to the great nobles soon became, like the nobles they had plundered, and began to exploit the commoners.
Because of this, the entire Kurkut Empire is now in chaos!
People who don't look at oppression have chosen to rebel, and now not many people use the word 'rebellion' to describe them, but the word 'uprising'.
All at once, the legitimacy of those rebels was established, and they even gained a lot of support for it.
The flames of war burned within the empire - they had been laughing at the Kurt kingdom before, but now they had become like this, and the few were just a legendary paladin who supported the rebels.
The empire is in chaos, and if he thinks correctly, those big nobles should want to use these things to divide the empire and establish themselves as kings.
If this is the case, their next step should be to unite to murder the emperor, and then kill the princes who are most likely to ascend the throne by the way, and because of the long-term intermarriage, the families of the big nobles have royal blood, as long as the prince is killed, they can naturally compete for the throne.
Until then, they will definitely carry out a wave of harvest of the small and medium-sized nobles, and at that time, they will have the opportunity to overthrow the current disgruntled imperial family.
Although these are two completely different routes, no matter which method is used, they can let the great nobles sit in that position, and if they can really sit on the throne, the great nobles will definitely not give up this opportunity.
Now that the opportunity is in front of them, they can get a chance with a few small means, so will they do it?
They're sure to do it, so they need an empire that's even more chaotic!
Maybe it's not just them, but even the nobles who believe in the goddess of progress are in their calculations.
Viscount Gwill raised his hand to cover his eyes, took a deep breath, and strengthened his belief that he must become a great nobleman.
