0 first meeting

Jue looked at Cohen for a moment, then said to him, "I'll ...... when I come."

"You already figured out the national situation of Bannanguo when you came, right? And you also know the current situation of Bannanguo. It's really clever to choose the most intuitive route to deal with this problem. ”

"You're not ordinary. Jue said with a smirk.

Looks like Cohen has my intel. But what does his attitude mean? I don't understand......

"Thank you so much. Cohen leaned on his chair, "Jue, the head of the dragon clan, but you are still the first in the hundred soldiers. Do you want to be a civil official even though you have the ability to be a military attaché? As for why the dragon clan declared that your name was 'Yu' when you landed, I don't know. And you also have a relationship with the upper echelons of the Dragon Clan, and you can even be said to have some ambiguous relationships with female members of the important political forces of the Dragon Clan...... You are not to be underestimated. ”

Speaking of this, Jue couldn't help choking up.

It is okay for Cohen to know about the affairs of the director, but how did he know the news of the Hundred Soldiers? The matter of Jue is Yu is only known to the insiders of the Dragon Clan! And the relationship between him and Xia Ni and the others is also known to Cohen.

This guy is not simple!

"Lord?" Ouyang Taxue looked at Jue in surprise, she couldn't believe that the power behind Jue was so powerful.

"Did someone tell you not to check the details of people too carefully?" Jue said coldly, but she still secretly glanced at Ouyang Taxue.

Cohen smiled and clapped his hands and called for an attendant.

"Take this young lady to the room to rest, I want to have a good chat with Jue. ”

The attendant nodded and took Ouyang Taxue away.

After making sure that Ouyang was leaving, Cohen turned his head and said to Jue, "Tell me, what do you think of the current social situation?"

Jue took a stool and sat down, and said, "How can I say it, it's very bad." ”

"That's what I thought. Cohen nodded, "So do you have any good ideas?"

To be honest, I really didn't expect this country to get to where it is. You're not stupid, but why would you carry out such a stupid order?"

"This order is not stupid. Jue said, "It's just too short-sighted, or too advanced." ”

"Is this order ahead of its time? I see, that's what you say. Cohen said casually as he leaned over the table.

"What about you? Do you think such an order is normal?"

"How so...... Personally, I didn't care, at first I thought that this order would be carried out immediately, and I also thought about what to do if something happened. But I didn't expect things to come this far. ”

"Yes, that means things are going better than you expected. ”

"That's right," Cohen sighed, "the speed with which orders are given is disproportionate to the efficiency with which those below them are executed......"

"So, what are you going to do?" Jue asked.

Cohen looked at his phone and said, "There's going to be a meeting later, but you can just take a look later." We will start by summarizing the problems we have encountered here. Some of the nobles will also be present at this meeting, so be careful. ”

"Do the aristocratic faction want to be kings?" Jue said.

"I don't know, but it's possible that they will use some extraordinary means to take power. After all, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too weak now, has no opinions, and does not want to ascend the throne. ”

"What a headache successor......" Jue sighed.

"yes, that's a headache. Cohen also sighed, "I'll take you to meet our Royal Highness the Crown Prince later." ”

"Well, after all, my mission is to bring your country on the right track, and it is necessary to support the royal family. ”

"Yes, and you can also sell a favor to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which will be more beneficial to your rule at that time. Cohen didn't shy away from speaking his mind.

"Are you really at home in politics?" Jue asked with some contempt, for whom Cohen's actions smacked of provocation.

"If you are a fish in water, there will be no such chaos. Cohen shook his head.

Then he approached Jue, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "What kind of results can you bring? Or can you really do it?"

Without waiting for Jue to answer, Cohen moved away, and he said as he walked outside, "Let's go, meet His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Jue gently swept the place where Cohen had moved just now with his hand, and then followed Cohen away.

"Eh, that woman isn't your wife?"

Out of boredom on the way, Cohen took the initiative to chat with Jue. And Jue really admires Cohen for chatting, I didn't expect him to be so chatty.

"Well, no, it's my slave, who picked it up when I came. ”

"Slave? I didn't expect you to be able to pick up this kind of high-end goods, what a good luck!

"Money is still a fart?" Jue said casually.

"Indeed, money is useless now. ”

"But if I run out of that girl, I can give it to you. ”

"Really?!" Cohen said.

"Well, I asked her for one of her things anyway, but I'll have to keep it if I can't use it. If that's the case, don't even think about it. ”

"You're really interesting, no matter where you put it, someone will buy it at a high price, and even if you buy it in a black place, you can make a lot of money. ”

"Really...... It doesn't matter anymore. Jue shrugged unconcernedly.

That's right, for Jue, Ouyang Taxue is just a simple tool. Jue hates the human race, and he also hates Ouyang Taxue, but if it weren't for the fact that Ouyang Taxue had a magic weapon called "Forbidden" in his body, Jue would have abused Ouyang Taxue and thrown his body into the wilderness.

"It's here. Cohen stopped, then opened the door to the room.

As soon as the door opened, Jue saw a well-dressed young man reading a book in front of a large bookshelf.

The young man was clear-eyed and looked very gentle, and he read quite elegantly.

"Your Majesty, the officials of the Dragon Clan are here. Cohen saluted the young man.

"No, Cohen. The young man closed the book and said in a soft voice, "I have not yet ascended the throne, and I am not yet qualified to be called Your Majesty." ”

"But Your Majesty, now the country needs you!"

"But I am too immature to hold the position of king of a country. ”

Jue looked at this rather columsy person, and then shook his head.

What's going on with this guy?!Is this dead attitude looking for a fight?!Can't tell what's important and what's not?

This is the wait, the young man saw Jue.

"Are you an official of the Dragon Clan? I am Lin Fengmian, the crown prince of the Southern Kingdom. ”

Shouldn't you introduce yourself first...... Jue has a headache for this idiot prince and worries about the current situation and future of the country.

"Uh...... I am Jue, the head of the dragon clan, and I have been ordered to come to your aid. After Jue saw such a prince, he casually introduced himself.

"It's very good, I believe that with you, my country will definitely return to its original strength! ”

Jue was a little confused after hearing this, and then whispered to Cohen: "Hey, did your lovely prince think that I would always be in the southern country?"

"Sort of. Cohen also whispered with some embarrassment.

This guy is too naïve, right? Jue complained to the prince in front of him in his heart.

The magistrate himself is an existence that disgusts the ruling class of non-dragon countries, but instead of showing the sense of sovereignty that a leader should have, the prince naively thinks that the magistrate is a friend.

"Your Majesty, the Dragon Clan official Jue is not here to stay with us, but to help us manage the government temporarily. ”

"Is that so? I see, I see. After listening to Cohen's words, Lin Fengmian nodded.

Is this guy a child? Jue felt completely speechless.

"Jue, let's go first, I think we still have a lot of things to work out. Cohen didn't seem to want to spend any more time sleeping with Lin Feng, so he left the room first.

"Goodbye. Lin Fengmian waved his hand and said.

After Jue and Cohen left, the two talked in the hallway.

"Does such a fool make him king?!" Jue said helplessly.

"There's no way, after all, he's the right choice for the royal family. ”

"Are there any other princes? ”

"Don't be like this," Cohen said, "Besides, Bannanguo is monogamous, and the crown prince is just that." ”

"Didn't your former king have a lover, and there will always be illegitimate children, right?"

"Don't slander the character of the former king, he is different from ordinary nobles, he will not secretly keep a lover. Cohen said with some displeasure.

"Is that so......" Jue walked.

Neither of them spoke, and Jue silently followed Cohen, who quietly led the way.

Suddenly, Jue stopped.

Ke Enke, who noticed Jue's stop, stopped and looked back.

"Or ...... How about we make a new king?"

"You mean to abolish Your Majesty?"

"Hmm. Instead of looking for a waste to be the king, it is better to find a strong and powerful person to be the king. What do you think?"

Cohen shook his head and continued walking.

"Isn't it okay to support you as king?" Jue said later.

Cohen slowed down for a moment, then continued on his way.

Looking at Cohen's back, Jue smiled slightly.

It seems that this country can still be saved.

After walking with Cohen for a while, they came to the door of a conference room.

Cohen took a deep breath and said, "Go to court." ”

Cohen pushed the door open, and there were already people waiting inside.

"Prime Minister, you're a little late. "Someone said.

"Ah, I met with the envoys of the dragon clan, so it was a little late. Cohen walked to the seat towards the door, and then sat Jue next to him.

"Let me introduce to you, this is the envoy of the Dragon Clan, the head of the Dragon Clan, Jue. I think you should know the purpose of his visit to Japan. ”

"Do you want to do politics?" someone whispered below, listening to their voices and tones, it seemed that they were a little unhappy.

"Hello, Your Excellency, I am Executive Officer Li Jiang. If you have any orders to give me, I'm the quickest of all the executives. With that, Li Jiang stretched out his hand to shake hands.

"Ah, I'm glad I am. Jue held Li Jiang's hand.

"Huh? There's one less person today. Cohen was paying attention to something else.

"Ah," someone seemed to react, "the head of the Ouyang family has something to do. And then there's the assistant minister, who won't be in attendance. ”

"yes, that's really a lost opportunity to get in touch with the dragon officials. Cohen smiled. "The auxiliary officer doesn't care, he knows everything anyway. ”

After hearing the identity of the person who didn't come, Jue asked curiously: "Ouyang family, is there a nobleman here whose surname is Ouyang?"

"Well," Cohen nodded, "Not long ago, the head of the Ouyang family passed away, and the new head of the family began to take charge of the Ouyang family. But the house leak happened to rain overnight, and the previous head of the family had just passed away, and the cloth family, which was friendly with the Ouyang family, was collapsed, so Ouyang Taxue fell into your hands as a slave. ”

"You know all about it?!" Jue was shocked at first after hearing Cohen's words, but quickly recovered.

"It's all a small thing, it's not a big deal. Cohen said as if he was fine. Then he came a little closer and said, "But the new head of the Ouyang family is a ruthless person, and his ability is not bad, so don't feel disgusted with him because of Ouyang Taxue's matter." ”

Jue nodded slightly.

The report began. The content of this report is mainly about the current national situation. People sat at a circular round table and talked to each other, and from time to time someone came up in the open space in the middle to speak.

Just as Jue was listening to the report, Cohen secretly touched Jue.

Jue looked at Cohen and found that Cohen was handing him a piece of paper.

The paper shows the floor plan of the round table, but the location of some of them is marked.

"The red ones are the aristocratic faction, and the blue ones are the pro-king faction. By the way, the Ouyang family, who did not attend, was a pro-king faction. Cohen whispered.

"What if I'm a supporter of the aristocracy?"

"You don't dare. Cohen said: "The aristocratic faction hopes to split the Bannan Kingdom, so for the Dragon Clan, if the former Bannan Junior Brother is broken from the inside, the Dragon Clan's control over Baiyue Continent will decline, so you don't dare to support the nobles." ”

"Hmph, cunning. Jue put the paper away, and then smiled and said, "But I don't hate it." ”

At this point, the meeting room starts to get noisy.

"So, we need to increase the levy and try to replenish our treasury. ”

"But now that prices are so expensive, if taxes are raised, prices will be even more expensive, and if the people rebel because of prices, what will we do?!

"The country's economy is on the verge of collapse, our material reserves are already crumbling, and if nothing is done, internal strife is inevitable. ”

"What's the solution?! Our country has no money!"

Listening to the quarrel of the people at the round table, Jue could only sigh in his heart, "This kind of scene is the same everywhere." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I think the best way now is to let the people in each place take charge of themselves, and once we find an effective solution, we will notify the rest of the places, and at the same time, we must make sure that the stable side leads the unstable side to stabilize the unstable side. I think that's the best way to do it right now. Said a man with a strange beard.

It is true that this is the best way, but it is not the most correct way. Jue thought in his heart.

"That guy. Cohen whispered, "He is a radical figure of the aristocratic faction, a member of the Tian family, called Tian Yangcheng." Be careful of him, the Bu family was wiped out by him. ”

"He's a troublemaker. Jue whispered in approval.

"Prime Minister, what do you think of my plan?" asked Tian Yangcheng.

"It's very nice. Cohen immediately corrected his attitude and said: "But you must know that now it is not only our internal problems that have arisen, but also the small countries outside want to take a share of our national turmoil, so if we choose your plan, we may cause the possibility of destroying the country due to the time difference in communication between various places." ”

"But if this happens, the local rulers will definitely fight hard to save themselves, and there will be no situation where the rulers will give up resistance because they are lazy or afraid, but the current army is in the capital, and it is difficult to mobilize......

Oh, are you going to directly set up independent military power? Jue saw Tian Yangcheng's purpose.

"You don't have to worry about that. Cohen continued: "The local people can resist for a while, and when has our army ever been lazy? Motorized troops with magic weapons can reach the battlefield in a very short time, and besides, if the local people are going to form an army, do they have the money?"

Cohen's words directly scolded Tian Yangcheng back.

Well done. Jue secretly sighed in his heart.

Finally, the day's meeting was over.

"How?" Cohen asked.

"Wonderful! can only be described as that!" Jue sighed.

"Hehe, today they didn't say too much to give you face. ”

"Well, it looks like we still have a long way to go. ”

"Sounds like you've got a solution? ”

"Well, how to put it, I think we need people. Jue said.

"Cheng, I'll give you a list of trustworthy people with their names and backgrounds. Oh, and by the way, Li Jiang you can trust him completely. ”

"Then please, I'll go first. Jue said.

"Well, you should know where your room is. I won't send it. ”

"Goodbye. ”

With that, Jue left.

Cohen looked at Jue's back and remembered the past-

"Your Excellency, have you seen the wanted Dragons?!" Cohen asked.

"Well, it's a white-haired ...... No, it's a silver-haired guy with blood, who looks quite young, and has a child. ”

"Kid? his kid?"

"No, it doesn't look like it. ”

"What are you going to do?" Cohen asked.

"I've informed the dragons of the matter, and they've told us to leave the city and head south. The task of evacuating the masses is left to you. ”

"Yes!"]
