Chapter 499: Father's Banner and Faith (I)

No matter how Lin Hai thought about the content of the Earl's conversation with him alone in advance, maybe he would reproach him for concealing the matter of the Order of Bath, maybe he would probe the details of the queen's meeting with him, maybe he would ask about the content of the Knights, and maybe there would be a lot of gossip, but Lin Hai could never have imagined that it would be such a sentence - "Nie Feng cannot be defeated!" ”

It is himself who competes with Nie Feng, if Nie Feng can't be defeated, then he has to lose himself?

He was in the final trial of the Knights, and this mission exercise was also a sign of whether he could truly enter the service, and if he was eliminated, Lin Hai had no doubt that he would really leave the Knights. Don't say that he was secretly sent by the queen, through the swearing-in banquet, Lin Hai has a new understanding of this woman who holds the constitutional power of the monarchy of the entire empire.

What she is concerned about is no longer at his level, the gains and losses of a person or a group of people are not important to her, what matters is what will happen at the height of the empire.

Lin Hai was sent to the Knights by her, which actually carried the role of a Bass Medal in the world. And the Empress wants to use this incident to set the tone of the Garnathan affair in a roundabout way.

It is inconvenient for her to express her attitude directly, or to let the Imperial Investigation Department make a public announcement, which is tantamount to setting a degree on the cusp of public opinion, which will bring unpredictable public anger and doubts about the current system.

It even caused a chain reaction, threatening the councils of the planet and star districts of all the planets and regions of the whole empire, causing an imbalance in the management of the empire, and this is the most unacceptable internal friction in this war.

It can be said that Lin Hai played his role.

The queen would never have been expelled from the Order because he had not passed the trial, and would intervene to force him to join the Order, only to blame him for not even having the ability to stay. And His Royal Highness Nolan, the daughter of the duke, who has been so gracious to him, does not know how disappointed she will be.

Moreover, the Knights pinned their hopes on Gu Xiaobei, Zhang Chengsi, Wang San, these instructors and sergeants, Shaohao beside him, and Redier, who used him as a benchmark for dependents...... The consequences of the end of the trial failure, Lin Hai only needed to think about it, it was a disaster.

As their hope and sustenance, Lin Hai could not let these people down.

Because there have been too many things that have disappointed him in this world, he understands very well what it is like to feel uncomfortable. And recently at the swearing-in banquet, he felt even more deeply.

So Lin Hai stared at his father, Earl Lin Wei.

The gaze is hard and solemn.

Lin Wei sighed and said, "Lin Hai, I never seem to have mentioned your mother to you?" ”

Lin Hai's back and his entire scalp tightened.

From the moment he went to the riverside star, he looked at the man in front of him, who was called a strange man to his father, and talked about his mother's past......

Because his mother was a gate in his heart, closing all the most impulsive emotions in his heart, and fearing to open them, he would never touch them himself. But he hoped that the man in front of him would speak. Make a convincing explanation.

Now, it seems, has finally arrived.

"The manor of the riverside star, there are photos of the Great Pioneer period, you should be able to see it. In fact, the development of Riverside Star, that is, the last century, began with your grandfather Lin Lei, landing Riverside Star as a pioneer......"

Lin Wei's voice seems to be able to penetrate history in such a study.

Lin Hai also remembered the black-and-white photos displayed in the exhibition room of the promenade of the Star Manor by the Riverside. It's not because of photographic skills, it's a modern retro trend. All the photos related to the deceased are processed in black and white, reminding people that "the deceased is gone, and the coming can be traced".

In this world, all the photos related to the deceased are black and white.

Lin Hai could see that it was a young and vivid face, it was a resolute face, Lin Wei and Lin Hai both had the same breath in the eyebrows on that face, it was elegant, tenacious, and the tension of the mind.

At that time, Lin Lei in the photo, some of them stood on the barren land holding a mountain opening robotic arm. Some stood next to the construction machinery, wearing old-fashioned uniforms, with dirty faces but clear smiles. Some were in the starry sky, he stood alone, looking into the distance, it was a crisis that the family had endured, and he calmly dealt with the scene. There are many such photos.

And he inspired a generation like that, inspired Riverside Star, and even why Lin Wei was willing to dedicate her youth and body to the whole family with a girl with a foreign surname, because it was not only the grace of nurturing, but also Lin Lei's role model for her, and even her expectation of achieving Lin Lei's dream.

"It was an unusually difficult past, and I remember when I was younger, I had a difficult and tumultuous childhood with your grandfather...... I've almost never experienced the childhood that a normal person can have, and even my teenage years, I had to go into the construction sites of the planet as a man to help out...... I once wondered if your grandfather was really an earl nobleman. Because the nobles who settled in the Warring Star District with their families and servants lived completely different lives from us, we were more like commoners, peasants. Even some of the sons of the Baron and Viscount still look down on me at all. ”

"At that time, I gradually understood the ins and outs, and I learned that your grandfather, we came from the most noble Round Table family in the empire, and I originally had a life and circumstances that were envied by ordinary nobles, and I had a position that easily made all the creatures of a planet bow their heads...... However, because my grandfather broke away from the Lily Family, my family was in a very different situation, and even your grandmother died of overwork. I had a grudge against your grandfather at that time...... I also deeply understand that it turns out that a person being swayed by dangerous thoughts will bring such a big gap to himself, and even countless people in future generations. Since then, I have placed great emphasis on the power of thought and thought. When I was young, I traveled everywhere...... Until we came to this planet. The capital of the Empire. ”

Lin Hai looked at Lin Wei in surprise, this was the first time he had heard of his past. Lin Hai can imagine his father's past.

"I traveled everywhere, went to many places, and even learned a lot of life lessons from the conceited that when I came to the Capital Star, I did two things. The first is to join an organization, the "Teutonic faction" that originally existed to promote the idea of Freemasonry. The second is to fall in love. ”

"These two events, since then, have profoundly affected my life for the rest of my life."

"The Teutons?" Lin Hai heard the name for the first time, and then said, "Fall in love...... What do you mean...... My mother? ”

Lin Wei continued, "At that time, I deeply hated your grandfather's adventurist thinking of breaking away from the big family and bringing endless troubles and risks to himself and his family, and hated the statement that 'I would rather die if I am not free', because in my opinion this is simply unrealistic and contradictory, because death is precisely the greatest unfreedom. How can a person who truly advocates freedom and loves life be willing to die? …… This is nothing more than the cry of a hypocrite who contradicts himself. ”

It was at that time that the theory of solidarity proclaimed by the "Teutonic faction" was the path that I think was more correct than the great exploration of individual heroism, and it was also the path that your grandfather should have taken. The core is to build a framework in which everyone can form an ecosystem of complementary resources, take what they need, tide over difficulties, or survive better, and get real freedom and equality in it. Based on my experience, I don't think your grandfather's move away from the lily nobility was unwise, but at least he was wrong in the way he focused on fighting alone like a lone ranger...... I was able to grow my family through the Teutonic faction. ”

"So, you've been a member of the Teutonic faction since then, until now?" Lin Hai stared at Lin Wei.

Lin Wei nodded, "Otherwise, how can Brother Jinxing and Xu Yang fully support us in dealing with Luo Minglong and Zhang Juxiong's political staff?" If it's just to balance Luo Minglong, why pay such a big price...... Luo Minglong's Pan Taxing was investigated and purged by us, but three powerful subordinates of senior councilors under Brother Jinxing were also arrested and put into the Supervision Yuan. How could Luo Minglong let himself suffer such a big loss, of course he would take a bite back, which is also a certain price and rule. ”

"They...... Are you a Teuton? Lin Hai couldn't have imagined that the Teutonic faction that Lin Wei joined was already extremely powerful in the House of Commons. And I got in touch with Lin Wei here. So it makes sense, their Lin family entered the House of Commons, this is not what the queen meant, but some people in the House of Commons are pushing ...... These promoters were the Teutonic members of the House of Commons.

For this unfamiliar faction, and even the organization in front of him, where his father Earl is a member, Lin Hai is specifically a feeling that in a forest, their entire family is being spied on, but they can't see each other's mystery equally.

This feeling made him very bad, so he said coldly, "Teutonic faction? Milan star district Garnathan when he was in power...... Where are they? ”

Lin Wei sighed, "...... More specifically, it is an institution established by a group of people to achieve the faith of Freemasonry...... At that time, Garnathan had no direct evidence of evil, and it was unlikely that because I was a member of the Teutonic faction, he would retaliate against me because the other party targeted me. I joined the Teutonic faction...... Not an evil gangster. It's just a sustenance of faith. The essence of the reason why the Teutonic faction's brother Jinxing and others contained Luo Minglong was to curb the Assas Chen family, who had an undercurrent of conspiracy behind them, to implement the "New Republic Act". ”

Lin Haizhi said that what is in the middle of the storm in Congress now is the promotion of the "New Republic Act", and the biggest key to the new Republic Act is to use a seemingly righteous reason, such as opening up the private resources of the aristocracy to obtain public opinion, and then promote deep social reform, and the direction of this reform is in the hands of the people who promote it. So specifically, whether it's a gift from the Creator or a Pandora's box that has swept everything upside down in the existing empire, the New Republic Act is the key to it all. The Chen family is intent on obtaining this key.

In this way, they actually had the same purpose as the Teutons. It is to prevent the Chen family from obtaining this key, to prevent them from launching some secret conspiracy that no one knows about under the pretext of change.

Lin Hai pondered for a moment, and then said, "What does the Teutonic faction have to do with my mother?" ”

"Your mother...... Lin Wei looked up at him, then said, "She's from the distant Star Alliance." The first thing the Teutonic members should abide by was ...... No members are allowed to admit Star Covenant members. ”

******

******

"Star Alliance......" Lin Hai heard his voice tremble.

This is the most shocking message he has ever heard in his life.

So he tried hard to calm down, and then said, "That's it...... During the last World War, it was established to gather the strength of the entire universe civilization country to fight against the super empire Eagle Empire...... Human Interstellar Alliance? ”

"The Covenant is a shadow over our heads, and the Teutonic faction longed for the strength of the past empire, but believed that it was the emergence of the Covenant that stopped the unification of the Eagle Empire and caused the decline of the great civilization. And now, the Human Star Covenant still puts a lot of shackles on the empire with its residual influence......"

"Therefore, the Teutonic faction believes that the Covenant is the greatest evil in the world, and based on this existence, the first principle of the Teutonic faction with the purpose of reviving the empire in freedom and equality is - not to allow members to accept any Covenant people."

Ahhh Today there is only one change.

You can't guess what's behind!
