Chapter 578 While you are still looking at the present, some people have already begun to think about the future

On the way back, as he walked, Wren thought about what was next. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The Grand Duke of Joan of Arc did not die, he hid it, and his purpose in doing so was not to admire the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc or to have a good impression of the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc, but purely to use the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc to restrain another person in the future.

A man so powerful that his enemies call him the god of war, Grace.

The empire has two "gods", Grace, the god of war who is never defeated, and Joan of Arc, who never retreats. There has not been a single battle between two people, and if you have to say who is stronger and who is weaker, it is difficult to find perfect evidence for a while to prove who is stronger than whom, and who is weaker than whom.

Grace has participated in battles and campaigns, except for minor local flaws, has not really lost a single time. Dozens of times he used troops against the full moon, and in the end they all ended in victory, and it was this eternal undefeat that made him a banner of the empire, a living myth. Emperor Orlando VI himself said that as long as there were two brothers, Grace and Green, the empire would never need to think about defeat.

Joan of Arc was roughly the same, in the late civil war of Emperor Orlando V, Joan of Arc, a girl who had just completed the New Year's ceremony, led 2,000 knights to escort Orlando V, and ensured the safety of Emperor Orlando V in several extremely dangerous situations. In the latter stages of the Civil War, she gained the trust of the then Emperor Orlando V and was solely responsible for suppressing the rebellion, holding the restless nobles of the entire empire under her hands in an absolutely monstrous and hard-line style.

Counting the battles in which the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc participated in his life, they were equally impressive, and almost never lost. The only defeat was also because the commander was not her, and at the same time, her personal style, which led the charge first in every battle, made everyone who knew her surrender to her unique charm.

When Emperor Orlando V passed the throne to Emperor Orlando VI, he took his hand and told him that if you want the empire to be peaceful, you must give Joan of Arc enough trust, as long as she is in one day, the empire will not change.

Since then, Joan of Arc, who has been crowned Grand Duke, has been honored as Valkyrie!

The two great military gods of the empire are the sorrow of the full moon and Byron, and at the same time the sorrow of the empire. There were no large-scale foreign wars, and there was no place for the gods of war, especially the Archduke Joan of Arc, who was not trusted by the Empress of Pars, and his status plummeted.

Archduke Joan of Arc had been saying that she had to guard the surroundings of Emperor Orlando VI, but after Empress Pars ascended the throne, she was driven back to her fiefdom, and she had to rack her brains about how to ensure that the title and fief would not be dismantled with her death, and finally came up with a bad idea.

Since Wren has set his goal on the throne, he will inevitably face a mountain that must be climbed over in the future - the Grace brothers.

He was not proficient in the art of commanding war, nor was he going to spend a lot of time learning how to command battle. So he had to have someone who could handle it and at the same time be able to stand up to the Grace brothers. This person will not be Blair, it will not be Jasmine, it will not be a nobleman he knows and has good relations with, or a commoner, but only the Grand Duke of Joan of Arc.

As long as they can withstand the attack of the Grace brothers and have room to fight back, then this matter is basically nine out of ten.

With the construction of the teleportation array completed and the war materials gradually completed, and the political environment within the empire that seemed to be about to be smooth sailing, but in fact became more and more dangerous, Wren believed that this day would not be too far off.

This is not alarmist, the current situation in the empire does look good from Pars's point of view. A large number of nobles were completely wiped out by the Northern Expedition, and some of the wealth accumulated by these people over several generations would be collected into the treasury and become a sharp sword in the hands of Empress Pars. At the same time, the nobles who made their fortunes because of the Northern Expedition had to share the power of their families to other places because of the chassis they had beaten down, and the nobles no longer had the ability to lift the table!

At that time, she only needs to push lightly, and the reform of the political system will be completely settled, and the nobles who have suffered dumb losses will have no power to fight back, and they will be knocked to the ground by her, and then stomped on a few feet.

Once the political system reform is successful, the operation of the empire will completely shake off the interference of the nobles, and operate exactly as Empress Pars wants, and she will also do what previous generations of emperors wanted to do, but could not do, and achieve the prestige of a generation of female saint emperors, and become the most powerful empress in history.

Of course, this is the trend of the whole situation from the perspective of the Empress of Pars, but on the other hand, it is a different situation. It can't be said that Empress Pars is stupid, just because she was born in the palace, grew up in the palace, and ascended the throne in the palace, so she doesn't know the situation in the imperial capital, or even outside the palace.

Nothing can be done in absolute steps that people have planned, and there are a lot of complex changes.

After the Northern Expedition, the nobles gained a lot of resources and wealth, including political resources, and had greater political power. Although they are inferior to the Queen of Pars in fists, they do not have to use their fists to speak in everything.

Okay, even if the nobles shut up, but are they willing?

They have changed from kings and emperors in fiefdoms to outsiders all of a sudden, and they can no longer interfere in the government affairs of the fiefdoms, they can't influence the affairs of the fiefdoms, and their privileges will be reclaimed.

The answer is no, the nobles who have just received a lot of manpower and material resources will definitely not sit still. Even if they can't resist the political system reform pushed by Empress Pals, there is another group of people who can do it, and that group is the major parties!

In addition to the most loyal party of the royal family, whether it is the Labour Party, the Merchant Party, the Peasant Party, and other parties, they will not miss this rare opportunity. They will do everything they can to extract enough benefits from this change, and even begin to really interfere in politics to a certain extent. They may, no, be bound to become a new "aristocratic clique", and when the aristocracy had to collude with the partisans, they had so much power that even the Empress of Pars had to concede.

You want to reform the political system, okay, no problem, we will listen to you how the big framework changes, but in terms of details, we have the final say.

Empress Pars's fantasy of relying on the central policy will become particularly ridiculous, and the so-called new plebeian rulers who have been elected can never really come from the plebeians. These people will be contracted by the various parties, and the empire will be ruled by the aristocracy and will become ruled by parties, which is no different from the previous one, and in some respects, even inferior to the old system.

Once a party controls the politics and economy of a city, and once a party tastes the distorted power of power, then the party will become the vanguard of the overthrow.

Because they are a more united group, rather than aristocrats fighting for the interests of their respective families. They have been twisted into a rope, with common ideals, pursuits, goals, and desires, and they will possess far more destructive power than the aristocracy.

At this time, the royal family became a stone blocking their way, and if they wanted to go further, they had to move this stone - revolution!

At that time, it will not be a matter that can be resolved by lip service, but must be resolved by another simple, direct and crude way, that is, war.

The special bill on the formation of armed forces by parties to maintain local law and order, which has just been passed with the outbreak of the rebellion, has given the parties enough confidence to turn a large number of staunch party members into fighters anytime and anywhere as long as they have the money and as long as they can afford it.

Think about why Kent wants to get rid of Wren's control and pursue independence? Is it not because he has four million working class people standing behind him? The Labour Party does not need to pull in many people, 500,000 people, 500,000 fighters, it is enough to shake the foundation of the royal family. What's more, the other parties will not watch the benefits being taken away by the Labor Party, especially the Industrial and Commercial Party, they have money and people, and getting 50,000 elite knights is enough to sweep most of the empire.

When the day came, the Empress Pars would find out that she had dug a pit for herself, a deep, deep one.

The aristocracy did have a deep impact on the rule of the royal family, and the limelight of the aristocratic group once overshadowed the royal family, but everyone should be clear that if the nobles were not in a hurry, they would not overthrow the royal family, and even their interests and the interests of the royal family have been tightly combined and cannot distinguish each other.

But those common people are different, they have nothing to give up, and no matter what they do, there are only two endings, either maintain the status quo or change the day.

When that day comes, the Empress of Pars will realize that what she has done is actually dealing with herself. She dug up the roots that the royal family relied on for her own livelihood, and buried herself with her own hands!

When that day comes, even if she finds out, it won't be too late.

Wren won't take the initiative to change anything, he will let everything happen naturally, and then find the right time to get what he needs in one fell swoop.

The Labor Party and the Merchant Party are his wings, and when the time comes, his power will absolutely override the other forces, and he only needs to move his own steps, and he will be able to sit in that position and reign over the world from now on.

Until then, he just needs to hide himself.

As for the rest of the work, it is only natural that the parties, the nobles, and even the Empress of Pars will move the whole situation forward for him to the point where he wishes to need it.

Now, all he needs to do is hide himself, and that's it!
