The emperor is not easy to be, at least from the current point of view, under this backward political system, the emperor is not easy to be. Of course, if you want to be a faint monarch, then under such a political system, it is enough to be a happy emperor. Because no matter how mediocre and brutal it is, as long as you don't maintain indiscriminate killing, you can be mediocre until the day you die of old age, and even the traitors and nobles will take the initiative to find ways to make the faint monarch live longer for a better political environment.

"Lord Wren......", Imperial Secretary of State - Before the death of the Grace brothers, there was no difference between the Minister of Imperial Defense and the Minister of Military Aircraft, they were all just decorations. Whether it is offensive or defensive, it is up to the two brothers to say anything, and there is no need for them to do anything at all. After the death of the Grace brothers, perhaps they were the happiest, at least they got the power they deserved.

From this point of view, they are also the beneficiaries of Wren's usurpation, so there is naturally a reason to protect Wren's rights and interests.

The number of sitting or standing nobles in the main hall is far less than there was during Pars's reign, and many of them have been completely destroyed physically by Wren to intimidate some unwilling people in the imperial capital. Of course, this might have led some to distort his image into a murderous king, but it worked well, and those who jumped up and down honestly returned home, looking out of the door in fear of suddenly rushing in a group of soldiers, cutting them into seven or eight pieces, and throwing them out of the city.

"Say!", a word, a syllable, but exuding a thick power, he just glanced down at the Secretary of State in the second row under the steps, and the Secretary of State's body trembled imperceptibly, and at the same time lowered his head, avoiding Wren's gaze. Wren himself also faintly felt that since he sat in this position, it seemed that there was a natural attribute bonus, which made his momentum and majesty several steps higher.

In the past, those aristocratic ministers sometimes dared to shake their arms with him, but now, they didn't even dare to make eye contact. These weak chicken-like aristocrats trembled under his gaze, and he suddenly thought that in Pars's eyes, what she saw was the same as what she saw.

No, it won't be the same, and although Pars can lose her temper at times, she can be willful, and she can be irritable, but she rarely kills. Compared to Wren, Pars is like a seemingly terrifying flower growing in a greenhouse. And Wren is a man-eating flower who lives in the jungle and survives on meat, although he is not as rich as Pars, but he really wants to eat people!

The Secretary of State immediately blurted out, "Recently...... Forty-seven nobles in the Empire have publicly stated that they have questioned your legitimacy and refused to pay taxes, saying that they are preparing to ...... independence. ”

This is not good news, but at the same time it is good news, forty-seven nobles, I am afraid they are all die-hard members of the Orlando family. If these people don't jump out, Wren is really not easy to screen them one by one, and whether he can find them out is a problem. But they jumped out in one go, and the problem was solved. A successful lion king, in the face of any provocation, the most powerful counterattack is to bite those provocateurs to death, not to pamper them with a smile, which will only give birth to more provocateurs.

Whether it is politics or life, in fact, it is all a "transaction", and what kind of price to pay and what kind of return to get is the unchanging truth of this world. Once people find that they can reap the rewards for a small price, they will trample on the order of this society. Only by giving them a blow head-on and making them realize the cruelty of the failure to provoke authority can we stop those irrational people from jumping out one after another.

"Make a list and issue an edict to crusade against the unministers, this time the royal family will not participate in the distribution of victory dividends. Wren's words caused a moment of commotion in the hall.

In the long history of the Empire, including the Holy Empire, when the royal family ordered a crusade against a nobleman, the crusader was required to allocate a certain amount of dividends from the spoils of war to the royal family. Even in private battles between nobles and nobles, if they didn't want to make a big deal and attract the attention of the upper echelons of the empire, they would give some of the benefits to the royal family. To put it simply, the royal family has to take it all!

This in itself is an unreasonable request, people bother to crusade for you, and you still have to take the benefits of others, which is not right, so Wren directly changed this rule, and this is also the reason why everyone is talking about it.

Once Wren lets go of this, does it mean that the private war will usher in a period of outbreak? Will the empire be more chaotic?

The Secretary of State nodded yes and sat back.

At this time, the chief of the State Administration of Taxation also stood up, "Your Excellency Rennes, is this year's tax clarified now, or is it waiting for a one-time audit at the end of the year?", the chief of the General Administration of Taxation has already found some gossip through his own channels, and it is said that his position has been favored by the old tyrant of the Cabo Fields family and is preparing to take action against him. The person who can do the position of the head of the State Administration of Taxation is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp.

It looks like he's asking questions about taxes, but he's actually testing Wren's attitude towards the rumors. If Wren says to clarify all the tax accounts now, then he needs to start looking for someone to get the relationship and go through the door, find a way to change the real power department, and give up the position of the chief executive. If Wren asked him to do these things again at the end of the year, he would also move, but not to run away, but to fight the Cabo Field.

With a new emperor supporting him, he can never be a loser in the end, so Wren's attitude is very important.

This guy is also a very interesting person, and he is very knowledgeable, at least he doesn't pretend not to know what is going to happen, or do something before testing Wren's attitude, very smart and sensible. For such people, Wren has always liked them very much, and only when he really becomes a superior can he understand how much the superior loves talents.

Wren didn't answer his question, but raised his hand to sit down, and the guy actually sat down, and sat back, smiling at the spokesperson of the Kapoff family.

Wren quietly changed his sitting position, this throne is a bit of a shit, and I don't know what Orlando I thinks, he actually made this thing so angular, Wren decided to transform it a little, not to mention how comfortable it is to sit, at least it can't be uncomfortable, right, no wonder Pars used to stand up and walk around at every turn, and it is estimated that she also feels uncomfortable.

"I recently heard an interesting thing......", Wren said, and the whole hall was silent, and this is the biggest difference between him and Pars. He relied on victory after victory full of blood and death, step by step stepping on the bones of countless people to climb to this position. The breath he exhales when he breathes is bloody, with a tragic breath, you can not listen to him when he speaks, you can move around, and even run and dance while singing without anyone caring about you.

But you have to think clearly, what you will face next, Wren will never reason with you, he will not talk to you about the law of nobility, he will only give you a knife.

It is precisely because of what Wren has done that has shocked people again and again, so he has won everyone's heartfelt awe, more fear than superficial foolishness.

"I heard of a citizen of the Empire, a Desi, who ran a blacksmith shop. The blacksmith shop is very good, very profitable, there are so many mines in the empire, the ore price is low, but the price of the things created is not very cheap. He made some money, and because of it, someone targeted him, and then conspired with others to take away his blacksmith shop. Wren spoke very slowly, not as fast as usual, and his words were very clear, and everyone could hear and understand his every word.

So the poor blacksmith went to the council chamber, to the garrison, and to the clerk. He can produce enough evidence to prove that his estate has been robbed, but do you know what kind of reply he faces?", the silent hall was silent, no one wanted to show their heads at this time, and they already had a vague idea in their hearts of what Wren was going to say," they told him...... To put it simply, you deserve it. ”

"I'm not sure there's something wrong with the bureaucracy at the grassroots level, but it's obviously not an isolated case. The officials at the bottom, the privileged class, have only a little power in their hands, and they dare to collude together to seize the property of the common people, what is wrong with the privileged class to make it corrupt like this?"

Wren sighed, "Doesn't anyone know what they're doing?Yes, how not, and there must be more than one or two people who know, many people know, including your ......", Wren raised his hand and pointed at the nobles in the hall, where his finger pointed, the nobles bowed their heads one after another, "But you don't say it, don't do it, because it will offend people, who knows if there are other people behind these people, or other forces?" Or you are afraid of trouble, and waste your precious time for a commoner's fortune that adds up to ten gold coins. ”

"But you certainly don't know that when an empire begins to collapse, it starts at this level. "So, I decided to create a new department to supervise the privileged classes and departments at all levels, and sort out this group of pests from top to bottom." At this time, he pressed his hands on the armrests, stood up, and looked down at the many nobles, like a god standing on the high clouds and looking down on the world, "Who is against it?"

At this time, only people with abnormal brains dared to jump out to oppose it, although they couldn't oppose it and couldn't agree, but Wren obviously didn't think so. He nodded, "Very well, since everyone has acquiesced, this matter is over." This newly established department is called the Imperial Discipline and Security Council, and the first chairman ......", he looked at the chief who had performed before that made his eyes shine, and the guy was also an interesting person, and immediately stood up.

Wren raised his hand and nodded at him, "It's you, you are ready to hand over the work in hand and set up a new department for me!"

The man immediately nodded yes, and the representative of the Capofield family smiled and nodded to Wren, he felt that this time the family and Wren were really right to cooperate, and all of a sudden they grabbed such a power department in their hands, and the benefits brought to the family far exceeded the other authorities. In fact, what Wren didn't know was that the Capofield family traded a position as a military minister to Vito in exchange for Vito's support for the matter.

Of course, the old tyrant also knows very well that he has touched the bottom line of Rennes, and if the Capofil family does not want to go to war with the Alcanian family, then the best thing to do now is to shrink his head and be a man. The benefits have already been eaten, and it doesn't matter if he loses some face, as long as he can get enough benefits, even if Wren points to the old tyrant's nose and scolds him, he can face it with a smile.

It's a pity that their gaze is still limited to what they can see, and Wren, who originally wanted to do something to these departments, is just taking some worthless things in exchange for enough time. When Wren cleans up the full moon and the thorns in the country, he will turn his gun at the first time and aim at these greedy gold nobles.

If he doesn't get rid of all the gold aristocrats, how can he sit firmly on his ass?

The morning was spent dealing with one government affair, and Wren's attitude towards these matters was very different from Pars's. Pars is hiding, leaving almost everything to Vito to handle, and only big things will she decide herself. Emperor Orlando VI has always been with the mud, anyway, everyone will see how to solve it, as long as the foundation of the empire and the Orlando family is not shaken, you can toss it as you want.

Only Wren, those small things can be handed over to Vito, and other things that have a little influence are personally involved.

Pars has always said that he does not have enough control over the empire, and how can you strengthen your rule over the empire if you avoid those government affairs every day?

By daydreaming?

After having dinner with several ministers at noon, Wren returned to the dormitory.

He was a little tired and lazy, and some of him was not used to taking off the ornaments on his body and taking off his clothes. In the past, these things were done by Von Cos, and now the chief butler has also risen with the success of Rennes's usurpation and has been promoted to the chief butler of the entire "royal family".

Some people who are not at the level enough want to meet Wren first, they have to go through Vonkos first, and some simple government affairs related to the imperial capital, Wren is also relieved to hand over to Vonkos to deal with. If it weren't for the fact that Phonkos had rejected Rennes' idea of knighting him several times, Vonkos would have been a nobleman of the empire now. 19
