Chapter 135: The Prince's Alternative
Han Tianwei suddenly thought of something, and said loudly: "Is it a game?" ”
The old emperor nodded: "At that time, I was still dreaming of adventurers, and my father and emperor didn't care about my future, so I was at ease." ”
The old emperor's face was full of smiles: "At the beginning, I played the battleship combat game "Star Voyage Map", and I found a bull man, so I worshipped this bull man as a teacher, and this bull man is the number one master Lei Zhan in the whole server!" ”
"Later, when the prince's coup failed, and when King Qin's army invaded the imperial capital, the Arda people tried in vain to take advantage of the fire to rob, as a prince who has not been favored, and even more of a sudden emperor, I have no army to be mobilized at all, but Lei Zhan helped me!" The old emperor fell into memories: "At that time, the royal family could only organize a road force of 50,000 people, and there were only three destroyers in space that could be used, but Lei Zhan stood by my side and helped me command the few remaining resources!" ”
"He said, "I'm your master!" The old emperor's eyes moistened a little: "He has always stood by my side, calmly commanding everything, launching skirmishes again and again in my name, and then making my reputation continue to rise!" ”
"He said at that time: Little apprentice, the master only started with a team of 12 people in the game, you are good here!" The old emperor said: "He understands war better than we do, and war in his eyes is but a game." As the victories grew more and greater, I finally stabilized the situation, and one army after another began to swear allegiance to me, and at my disposal, the empire finally expelled the Arda people, and fell into a century of development and reconstruction! ”
"So would the imperial grandfather insist on canonizing Lei Zhan as the Grand Duke at the beginning?" Claire's rare tone softened a little.
"He is my master, and he never regarded me as the emperor's master, he raised troops for me and established prestige, why can't I share half of my wealth with him?" When the old emperor said this, he blew his beard and glared: "It's his son Thunder, isn't he also sitting in the position of the marshal of the empire, but it's a pity that he is still not as powerful as his father!" ”
"Isn't the thunder powerful?" Princess Claire was a little surprised, Thunder can be said to belong to the kind of tiger father without dog son, extremely powerful and domineering on the battlefield, and has ruthless attack methods, is a well-known killing god on the battlefield. If he is not ruthless and powerful enough, how can he inherit his father's career without anyone raising objections?
"Xiao Tianwei, that's a real master you haven't seen, it's like sitting in a well and watching the sky, how big the sky is above your head, you think how big the sky is, in fact, there is often a sky outside the sky!" The old emperor said: "I can say that my master is an existence that can surpass my brother who is the crown prince, and he is a real hero!" ”
The old emperor was full of pride when he said it, maybe in his heart Lei Zhan was his real master, and he also relied on his master's wings to soar into the sky!
"You say that," Princess Claire thought was exaggerating.
The old emperor has already said: "What is my brother, he has been the pride of the sky since he was born, to put it bluntly, he has a good background, he has everything he should have, but what about my master?" He is a man who started from nothing, a man who struggled a little bit on his own rather than the wealth left by his parents, and became a marshal of an empire, who do you say is more powerful? ”
"Only when you have expected to have and have lost can people know how to cherish it!" The old emperor said: "This is what Lei Zhan said, and it is also the words that I enshrine as a wise saying, Xiao Tianwei, when you were imprisoned in the basement, do you know what cherishing is?" ”
"I know" Han Tianwei remembers that time vividly, and he will never forget it in his life.
"Remember the loss, because if you don't want it to happen, go the extra mile!" The old emperor said again: "And you also have to learn the way of life to survive in the cracks!" ”
"Your Majesty, Marshal Thunder has returned to his troops, and Marshal Huo Hening is already waiting in the temporary annex of the Imperial Palace!" At this time, the attendant suddenly stepped forward and said.
The old emperor nodded, motioned for him to stand down, and then said to Han Tianwei: "Do you know that after you were assassinated, I also added fire!" ”
Han Tian shook her head slightly, she was trying her best to digest the news provided by the old emperor. It's like when you always thought that the world was peaceful, and suddenly one day someone told you that "this world is ugly and there will never be peace", and she was trying to accept all this when she came into contact with these dark worlds.
"I've had someone assassinate Lei Luo!" The old emperor said with a triumphant smile: "I believe that this time the thunder will directly settle the account on the third child's head, so that he has no choice but to stand on your side!" ”
Han Tianwei looked at her imperial grandfather in surprise, she didn't expect the old emperor to use such a means in order to seize power for herself. The old emperor said triumphantly: "Even if the third child knows, they will be suspicious of who made the move for a long time, but they will not explain it to Thunder." Even if they explain, will the Thunder believe it? ”
Han Tianwei fell silent again, she was afraid that one day she would become as unscrupulous as the old emperor, but her heart was also telling herself that she was approaching this trend step by step!
"Your Majesty the Emperor, this is the data of the outstanding players in the fighting armor game that was recently retrieved, do you think you need to issue a special move?" Heidier suddenly approached with a pile of papers.
The old emperor said: "Don't touch them yet, when Princess Claire becomes the imperial grandson and officially becomes the prince, send them an invitation letter in the name of the prince, and cultivate them well if they can!" ”
"Yes!" Heidiel said and looked at Princess Claire, but the princess apparently shifted away from her. Hedier turned away with some sadness.
The old emperor said to Princess Claire: "Little Weiwei, you are too immature, any emotions are on your face, and you will be seen through!" ”
Princess Claire whispered, "I know I can't go back, I'll try to change!" ”
The old emperor didn't force her anymore, but said: "Heidier is good at acting and deceiving people, but there is one thing she can't hide, that is, she likes you!" ”
"What?" Princess Claire cried out, "How is that possible? ”
"Even if people can act again, they can't hide their true feelings at any time, Xiao Weiwei, you can take advantage of her liking, but you also have to be careful if this liking will turn into poison to poison yourself!" After speaking, the old emperor changed his tone and said: "That's all for today's lesson, let's go back, tomorrow will announce that you will become the prince, you need to have a good rest, show your best side in front of the world!" ”
In the military of the Alda Federal Empire, a group of bigwigs sat together, and the first commander even brought two councilors to follow behind. Until then, this article has not covered the structure of the Alda Federation. In fact, although the Alda Federal Empire was a federal system, it was ruled by the ideology of chauvinism (racism) and hegemonic politics. This made their federation look more like an empire, an arrogant empire.
The supreme ruler of the Arda people is the First Commander-in-Chief, with six marshals and five important members of the parliament. But they will not be hereditary, as the Titans are in vogue, but elective. The commander-in-chief of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief is twenty years and is not allowed to be re-elected, but can be re-elected by alternate generations. The Arda are completely hostile to the hereditary system, presumably due to a long-standing hatred of the Titans.
However, it is also because of this that their political leaders have always belonged to the young faction, not the situation where the Titans, the old emperors are dying of old age, and they still do not give way. Therefore, the overall work efficiency is relatively high, but it also causes there to always be small political turmoil every twenty years, and falls into a short-term ****, which is different from Titan.
Once the position of the Titan emperor is stable, it will be difficult to change the marshals and courtiers after they are selected, so that the empire will have a long period of stability, which is very suitable for the people to live and work in peace and contentment. However, their titles are hereditary, and their positions are not so old that they must retire, so it's not really that they all occupy the pit and don't.
So both sides have advantages but also disadvantages.
"This is the news that the Titan Empire has just received, the crown prince of the Titan has announced his abdication, and now the most popular candidates are the third prince and the eldest princess, so the Titan is going to change the sky!" The chief of the intelligence department sat at the round table and said to everyone with a blank face.
The first commander flipped through the documents and looked at the intelligence officer: "I just want to know who is more likely to be selected!" ”
The intelligence officer nodded and said: "Based on our analysis, we think that the candidate for the crown prince's abdication should be his eldest daughter, Princess Claire, because the Titans pay attention to hereditary inheritance and inherit their father's business, so I think his candidate should be his own daughter, not his own competitor!" ”
"Then why didn't they just announce their abdication to the princess?" A marshal asked.
"This is their system problem, although the crown prince announced his abdication, but the candidate needs to be approved by the emperor, but we are also very surprised by the sudden abdication of the other prince, so we are not very clear about the specific situation!" The intelligence officer replied.
"Could this Princess Claire be the flower of the empire they call the eldest princess with the image of gentleness and proximity to the people?" The First Commander asked.
"Yes, that's her!"
"It would be nice if she came to be the prince!" The first commander suddenly looked at the picture of the princess and smiled, we Arda people just need such a gentle and kind opponent like a fairy tale!
"Haha" everyone laughed, full of mockery. Because this flower of the empire, like her father, has a kind appearance, and really doesn't show much political talent.
"But will the old emperor choose the third prince as the prince?" Someone suddenly asked after the laughter.
The intelligence officer nodded: "There is this possibility, in the support of the Empress and the Chancellor of the Exchequer in the Three Princes of Titans, coupled with the cowardice of the former crown prince, it can be said that the power has grown wildly." And the silence tendency of the old emperor here behind him can also be seen, and it is still possible that he supports the third prince behind his back! ”
"No matter what, as long as the Titans don't mess up, let's not do it yet!" The First Commander said.
"Understood!"
