Chapter 403: Great Benefit
Lin Ye was ecstatic about Gatlin's arrival, although he didn't have much contact with Gatlin when he visited Gomez. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Gatlin only did a basic welcome, but in the few words, Gatlin revealed a conversation and knowledge that amazed him.
Even with Gomez's vicious gaze, when he looked at his grandson, he was very satisfied, and Lin Ye had reason to believe it.
Gatling is definitely a man with the strength of a prime minister, and his arrival here will solve the political deficiencies in the Far East to a great extent.
But Lin Ye did not relax his vigilance because of this, after all, maybe he was sent by Rhaegar to infiltrate the Far East, and even Lan Ma Luo killed Marshal Landau.
It was hard for Lin Ye not to wonder if these people who came from the royal capital were really desperate to come to the Far East to serve their lives, after all, this was different from ordinary eyes and ears.
It was to go directly to the center of power in the Far East, and he had to be cautious about this.
Gatlin declined Lin Ye's banquet and hospitality, but gave a secret letter to Yufy, but such an act alone was still not enough to make Lin Ye trust.
It wasn't until Yuffie read the secret letter that he burst into tears and told Lin Ye Gatlin that he could definitely be trusted, which made him feel a little more at ease.
Lin Ye was not curious about what was written on the secret letter, if necessary, Yu Fei would let him know, and he trusted Yu Fei 100%.
If it weren't for her, he wouldn't even be able to leave Undercurrent Island, and when he went to the royal capital, the entire Far East was presided over by her.
The three of them ate in the cafeteria, and Gatlin told Lin Ye a lot about the royal capital, including the situation in the royal capital and the situation of several princes.
The death of the former prime minister, his grandfather Gomez, has made Lin Ye and Yuffie very emotional, especially the latter.
For Yufe, although Gomez has never met, he has been struggling to support the overall situation of the old party, if it were not for Gomez in the first place.
Her parents had no way to escape the royal capital, and the letter Gomez had written to her made her have mixed feelings and a difficult choice.
"So now it can be said that the eldest prince Leo and the second prince Leighton have gone to the end, and in the end, it will be the fourth prince Rhaega who will have the last laugh?"
Lin Ye skipped the passage of Gomez, no matter what, it was an old man worthy of respect, and it was better to mention it no longer as a man.
"On the surface, it seems that this is true, but it is not necessarily His Highness Rhaegar who has the last laugh. Gatlin shook his head, disagreeing.
Yuffie got up and went to the cafeteria to serve them food, not disturbing the conversation between them.
"It's not Rhaegar, who else could it be, could it be ......" Lin Ye quickly remembered a guess, which made him suddenly a little moved.
If it's that guy, it's not impossible to think about it carefully, but wouldn't the situation be more complicated and unpredictable?
"Yes, if there are no other distractions to join in, I'm afraid the last one to laugh is probably the third prince Rennes. Gatlin confirmed his guess.
Lin Ye, whose guess was confirmed, took a deep breath, the third prince Ren was originally the least favored, and he himself had no intention of competing for the throne.
But with the outbreak of war, sure enough, even he showed his ambition to seize the world, which made Lin Ye really a little surprised.
However, in addition to having a certain influence in the army, Wren did not have any nobles to support him, and he did not have the conditions for coronation. ”
Lin Ye quickly shook his head, it is true that Wren is powerful, but to seize the throne, he must get the support and response of all parties.
For example, when Raymond was able to be successfully crowned, it was because he had the support of the major families of the old dynasty and was strong.
Whether it is the eldest prince Leo, the second prince Leighton, or the fourth prince Lega, there is a group of nobles behind them waving their flags and shouting.
These nobles contributed money and strength to help the princes seize the world, and ultimately consolidate the interests of their families.
But only the third prince Ren has always been silent and has never participated in the political struggle, and without the support of the big nobles, it is really difficult to succeed.
"The Rose Family in the South and the Black Fire Family in the North aren't they famous families?"
Gatling's stone stirred up a thousand waves, which suddenly made the still harmonious atmosphere tense, and Lin Ye's expression changed sharply.
"Sir, is he here to help His Highness Wren as a lobbyist?" Lin Ye's unstable trust in Gatling suddenly waved.
Gatling made it clear that he wanted him to support Wren on the throne, and because of him, he also wanted to pull the southern Rose family into the water.
"No, whether it is from my grandfather's instructions or my own wishes, this new soil of the Far East is the best place for me to be, and choosing His Royal Highness the Third Prince Rennes as the object of support is the best choice for the Far East. Gatlin shook his head.
He was not angry at Lin Ye's suspicious and hostile gaze, after all, this was a normal reaction.
"I'm afraid I don't know, Sir, the third prince Wren once sent someone to assassinate me on the road, why should I help someone who assassinated me?"
Lin Ye's expression turned cold, he remembered this matter clearly, when he was assassinated on the way to the royal capital.
It was the person sent by the third prince Rennes, and he still couldn't figure out the reason.
"The reason why His Highness Wren did that is because he knows that once you enter the royal capital, you will become a sacrifice to His Majesty Raymond, or the church, and it is better to let you fall on the road before you enter the royal capital. Gatlin explained.
He knew far more than Lin Ye expected.
"Do I have to thank him for it? This alone can't convince me to help him, there is no reason for me to do it, and given the current situation, wouldn't it be the best option for me to sit on the sidelines?" Lin Ye did not agree with Gatling's words.
At first, he did go to the royal capital with the mentality of investing in a certain prince, but in the end he found that none of the three princes was a suitable candidate.
Since there is no suitable investment target, it is better for him to stay honestly in the Far East and develop his own, wouldn't it be happy?
"Now that the empire is in civil strife, the Blue Frost Kingdom in the north and the Dermok Federation in the south are all ready to move, and there are even rumors that the two of them are going to unite and divide the entire empire, in this case, if you are not sure who the emperor will be, and end the civil strife, the situation will be very bad. ”
Gatlin shook his head, once the north and south sides flanked the empire, this would definitely be a very fatal result.
"What's the loss of this for me?" Lin Ye smiled coldly, leaving aside his relationship with the Empire.
Anyway, several princes intended to put him to death, so why did he bother with this?
"There is no loss, but do you want to miss this opportunity to expand in vain? Once the overall situation has been decided, it will not be so easy to expand again, but if you support the third prince Rennes, your lord will get great benefits. Gatling said slowly.
"What's the benefit?" Lin Ye stared at him.
"Half of the empire has been divided, the old party has been restored, and your lordship will be crowned emperor as the husband of His Royal Highness Yufie. Gatlin said word for word. (To be continued.) )
