"For the sake of my communication with His Highness and the others, can I ask everyone behind me to avoid it first, please rest assured, if I really have any unfavorable intentions against His Highness Constantine, I believe that His Excellency Roland alone in the field will be enough to make me die a few times. The Dragon Warlock tilted his head and suggested.

Constantine did not hesitate, and glanced behind him, and the knowing Roland glanced at the people around him, signaling them to leave the scene first, leaving the space for dialogue between Rudis and Constantine.

The people present were all strong men who could take charge of themselves, but they had no interest in the political aspects of power and politics, so they dispersed, except for Mordred to glance at Constantine more.

Seeing that there was no one around, Rudis's expression relaxed, and he said to Constantine very sincerely: "The rebels have all been killed now, even Your Highness, it is impossible for you to fight against the dynasty on your own, especially when the Marquis of Caulfield is now killed in battle, the dynasty will pay more attention to you in the future." ”

Constantine did not deny this.

Killing Caulfield was a remarkable feat, but an inevitable consequence was that it would infuriate the Dragonlance Dynasty.

"It is impossible to reassure His Majesty the Emperor by handing over Azeroa to other Dragon Vein Clans, no monarch would sit idly by and watch a single family enjoy such a great benefit, and right now, our Red Dragon Clan is the best choice. ”

Rudis said, "It's a bit ashamed to say, because the Uther family is the weakest of the eight dragon vein families, and our family hasn't had a dragon knight in nearly a hundred years, which is our disadvantage, but now, it's the biggest advantage." ”

"For the sake of balance, no wise monarch would hand over such a large kingdom to a powerful family, which would greatly upset the balance of power. Constantine said lightly, "I understand this truth, tell me your conditions." ”

Rudis was stunned for a moment, "So, do you really plan to cooperate with us?"

"Why not?" Constantine asked rhetorically, his eyes drifting into the distance, "In fact, from a very early start, I have figured it out that Azeroa simply does not have the strength to fight the dynasty, so I say that the strategy that Rhaegar has carried out over the years is wrong. ”

Constantine continued: "In fact, it is irrational to use force against the Vismal family in order to achieve maximum independence for Azeroria, because war is just a continuation of politics, and the right thing to do is to unite the forces within the dynasty that are dissatisfied with the Silver Dragons. ”

"Only a few people can see this clearly, that is: behind the Dragon Lance Dynasty's hundreds of years of territorial expansion, is the Dragon Vein family's appeal and struggle for each other's interests. ”

"Victory in the war will bring more land, and with land there will be more titles to be divided, and on this basis, more young and strong people will be trained to serve the family and bring more resources, so as to gain an advantage in the family competition and pave the way for the next war. ”

Constantine said: "Another great effect of war is that it can also greatly mobilize the feelings of the people and increase the cohesion of the whole country." ”

"The people are very simple animals, for the victory of the country and the pride in their hearts, in order to be able to get the opportunity to become nobles in the occupied territory in the future, so that they and their children can get ahead, the people of the dragon lance are willing to serve as the war cannon fodder of the dragon vein family, willing to bear the harsh tax burden and low living standards, and it is precisely because of this that the dragon lance dynasty, a huge country established by force since ancient times, can continue to maintain. ”

This is the essence of the centuries-old dynasty's pioneering wars, and slogans such as what the strong are respected are just medicines used to anesthetize the people. Constantine said lightly.

Rudis was speechless, "Your Highness, you have seen it very thoroughly, so why didn't you agree to the request of the Marquis of Caulfield on the lakeside that day, and instead chose to cooperate with our Yusel family?"

"Because Caulfield has the ability and the leeway to go back at any time, but you don't. ”

Constantine smiled secretly, "He said that he was cooperating with me, but the status between me and him is unequal, and his actual intention is to make me a vassal of the Silver Dragon Family, in that case, there will be no improvement in the current situation of Azeroa in the end." ”

"But you are different, I believe that Elder Rudis does not have the ambition and appetite to monopolize the entire duchy, and in fact, your Uther family is not capable of doing so, what you want is an Azeroya who can continue to convey benefits to the family, not to exploit it completely. ”

"Indeed, in our opinion, there is a great hidden danger in the governance of the Azeroya Province by the Silver Dragon Family. Seeing that Constantine had so easily pointed out his intentions, Elder Rudis breathed a sigh of relief, "So, Your Highness, what are your requests?"

"Abolish most of the unjust policies and decrees against the people of Azerolia, including land, taxes, servitude, etc., so that the Golden Clover Chamber of Commerce can return to normal business, and all merchants in Azeroya can compete fairly with the Chamber of Commerce of the Dragonlance Dynasty and no longer be treated unfairly. "Constantine did not say a word of superfluous nonsense, and every proposal hit the nail on the head.

"These are very reasonable demands, and in the long run, they are very beneficial to the re-prosperity of Azero. Elder Rudis nodded.

"In addition, at the educational level, all schools in Azeroya can be reserved for the Azeroan people, and the children of the local nobles of the dynasty cannot arbitrarily deprive Azeroya children of the opportunity to go to school, and allow the Golden Clover Chamber of Commerce to fund the establishment of schools in the cities and villages of Azeroa. ”

"I hope that the next generation of Azerotans will know the history of the principality, and that it is their freedom to choose what they want in the future, but please give them that right. Constantine's tone was very tough.

"This ...... It's a bit difficult, but it's not without discussion. Rudis hesitated for a moment, knowing that there would be considerable resistance to the implementation of this policy.

"That's all I have for now, and you can negotiate the details with President Brillouin in the future. Constantine said lightly, "And I will leave Azeroa as you wish, and will no longer participate in the rebellion." ”

Constantine knew very well that there were no more than two main reasons why Rudis cooperated with him.

On the one hand, Rudis needs the strength and prestige of the Golden Clover Chamber of Commerce to stabilize the situation in Azeroa after Calfield's death, and on the other hand, he is worried that he will take advantage of Calfield's death to reveal his identity, which will greatly shake the dynasty's rule over Azeroa and be detrimental to the succession of the Yusel family.

At the end of the day, it's all about profit.

A look of admiration flashed in Rudis's eyes, and he hadn't even mentioned a single condition, while Constantine saw through all his thoughts at a glance.

The other party's delicate mind and far-reaching layout made the old and spicy Rudis feel amazed, is it really just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young man in front of him?

Although he was still jealous of Constantine, Rudis was very happy with the result.

In this way, this conversation, which was never recorded on paper but changed the history of the mainland in the future, was quietly completed in the night.
