The latest chapter of the Crusade of Saints...

After confirming the final disposition of -XIII, Evan Ian and his party were expelled from the lab by Krell under the pretext of "Don't get in the way of research!". Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Leaning against the railing, Evanian looked down from the research building, and the staggering heat of the furnace and molten iron in the distance mixed with the strong smell of sulfuric acid, mixed with the smell of engine oil rising from the production line under his feet, rushed into his nose.

In his previous life, he had been to the factory several times, and the scorching hot air, loud noise, and the pungent smell of sulfur mixed with oil all left a deep impression on him, and he just wanted to subconsciously run away.

But at that time, he never imagined that one day, he would smell and experience this real industrial vitality, but what he experienced again in his heart was a joy that had nothing to do with disgust.

Evan Ian also wondered if this was the pride that those pioneers of the Celestial Empire and thousands of ordinary industrial predecessors felt long before he was born- If industry is the backbone of a country, with strong industry and productivity, it is a sign of the country's strength, then standing in such a place that marks the most powerful place of a country, feeling the burning industrial enthusiasm, smelling the rich industrial atmosphere, listening to the huge roar induced by the rise of industry and civilization, as the founder of these great causes, in addition to incomparable pride, pride and supreme joy, how can you be disgusted?

Industry is the most basic guarantee for a strong country and people's happiness. It's as simple as work, the most basic need for a person's happiness and prosperity.

The hot wind blowing from a distance blew the man's sideburns slightly, and looking at the young and handsome face revealed under the soft short hair, Eddie Hill only had a slight sense that Evanian was just a teenager.

Yes, she was nearly twice as old as Evan Ian, but until he died of old age and illness, she was only just entering middle age, and the marriage between the long-born and the short-born was so unequal, so it was both because of this reality and because of the feelings of both spouses, in the laws of the Old Kingdom, it was strictly forbidden for the long-born and the short-born to marry each other.

But with the fall of the kingdom, such rules were broken, and among those who broke them were even Eddie Hill's parents.

However, in the story, one party dies of old age, while the other party lives with grief, remembrance and memories do not appear. On the day the kingdom fell and the vault of the palace hall was crushed by his mother's corpse, his father, who was a short breed, also died at the hands of the same person.

Can such a result be called happiness for the very loving parents? Can it be called the best ending of the marriage between the two destined for tragedy?

Edhill didn't know, but she knew very well that just like her parents, as an immortal, the union between her and Evan Ian, whether they were in love or not, whether they gave birth to an heir, would inevitably lead to tragedy, and there was no doubt that there was no accident......

What a hopeless future this is.

It's as dark as Evan Ian's black hair, but looking at the broken hair like a crow's wings, Eddie Hill will also have a faint urge in her heart to mix it with her dark gold sè's long hair, the brilliance of the black sè, and the pure gold of the dark sè, when the two are mixed together, what beauty will be exuded, maybe it is something that makes the butterfly pounce on the flame and desire to see.

"Eddie Hill ......" will see enough of the beautiful scenery, not to mention the industrial production line that is still quite boring in nature, so after a short period of excitement, Evan Ian turned around and looked at the dragon princess, "Continue the previous unfinished lesson." ”

Eddie Hill, who stared at Evan Ian's back with complicated eyes, was stunned for a moment, until she was gently pushed by Iofita behind her back, and then she hesitated to take steps, unlike in the morning, now she didn't know how to face Evan Ian. Wanting to assassinate Evan Ian was a momentary anger under her anger and pain, but after calming down, she already understood that her relationship with him could not be resolved by such simple means.

As a victim of a political marriage (both she and Evangel are the same), what she and Evan Ian are carrying is no longer just their own happiness, but the future of all the people in the entire Nanling - this is not something that can be solved by any xin in the arms of her father and queen mother as in the past, it is something that she must judge calmly with reason and her own political cultivation no matter what emotions she has in her heart.

"Put on a mask", she seems to have heard her father's teachings, "hiding her true thoughts." ”

"Be more mature, both outwardly and inwardly. ”

Adehill took a deep breath, opened her eyes, and then she returned to her previous elegance and indifference as a princess of the kingdom.

"Edhill, let's test our past learning a little bit today. Seemingly not noticing the change in the dragon princess's mentality, Evan Ian leaned back against the railing, tilted his head sideways, stared at the other side of the huge and endless cave, and said in a calm tone, "In the past month, I have taught you enough things, so according to the things I have taught, if you were asked to destroy the current South Ridge, what kind of solution would you think of?"

The indifference that Eddie Hill had forced to hold out collapsed in an instant.

The girl was stunned.

The girl was dumbfounded.

"Shshshsh...... What kind of way......" Because of the intense tension, Eddie Hill couldn't even say something for a while, "What kind of way can I destroy the current Southridge ......?"

Evan Ian didn't care about the dragon princess's vacillation, and spread his hands with a smile, "Yes, as you can see, the current Nanling can be said to be very powerful. ”

"With a strong army, a well-developed industry, an active business, and a good agriculture, Nanling is stronger today than in any period of history. ”

"But such strength is bought in exchange for countless crises?!" After calming down, looking at the arrogance on Evangel's face, Eddie Hill couldn't help but retort, she decided that no matter what Evangel's intentions were for this question, she would naturally deal with it.

What's more, she herself wants to know if Nanling can be defeated now.

So the opportunity is difficult, and Edhill also seriously cited an example: "First of all, for the issue of seigniorage, you have offended the rich people of Quannanling, including countless nobles and big merchants, and in addition to Nanling, those people in the empire who control the black silver coins have also suffered tragic losses in the financial war with you, and these people are trying their best to beg for a sigh of relief between you and the Silver Rose family." ”

"Secondly, as a vassal of the empire, your Silver Rose family is too sharp now, especially when Nanling is far away from the empire, and Grand Duke Feldnan, as the Taishou of Nanling and the marshal of the legion, has great military and political power, and the so-called meritorious master is nothing more than that. ”

Evan Ian squinted his eyes slightly, listening to Eddie Hill's analysis one by one, should he be said to be worthy of being a child of the old royal family, but he didn't miss anything out of it.

However, there are some things that Eddie Hill may not be clear, and Evan Ian still took the initiative to add: "Indeed, Nanling is located in the south, at least three harvests a year, which is a huge granary that is difficult to give up in most of the territory is located in the north of Nanling, and there is only one harvest a year for the empire, except for the great plains in the west of the empire, the grain exported by Nanling accounts for more than 70% of the entire food supply of the empire, and now coupled with industrial achievements, anyone who sits in that seat will be uncomfortable." ”

"And the ......church," Eddie Hill was silent for a moment, and then said, "But I can't understand what conflict there is between the church and the Silver Rose family, according to my personal thoughts, as another major church force in the empire that is different from the emperor, in the face of the growing Duke of Nanling, it is right to win over the alliance, but I didn't expect them to suddenly call faster than the others......"

"The heads of the wooden fish in the church ......" Speaking of the church, Evanian couldn't help but have a headache, "I don't know what they think." ”

"Finally......" Edèdie Hill hesitated slightly, and finally said bluntly, "It's the remnants of our Southridge royal family......"

Evan Ian smiled, didn't speak, and motioned for Eddie Hill to continue.

Seeing that Evan Ian didn't say anything, the dragon princess took a faint breath: "But it's said that it's seigniorage, but in fact, the seigniorage issue only shows a small aspect, and what is really reflected is actually the conflict between conservatives and reformers." ”

"No matter what kind of country, what kind of era, changing the existing laws and systems will damage and anger vested interest groups, those vested interests are born conservatives, no matter whether the reformers are doing the right thing or not, they will be attacked and suppressed by this part of the people, and those Nanling aristocrats are actually just a part of the conservatives, am I right?"

Evan Ian applauded with some sincerity, "Well, you're right. ”

Eddie Hill was not complacent, she nodded: "In this case, from my point of view, there are a total of four forces, which are the main promoters who want to overthrow Nanling-"

"Nanling conservatives - including the Nanling nobles whose interests were damaged in the economic reform, the emperors who were damaged in the military reform, and the imperial alchemists and mages who were damaged in the industrial reform. ”

"The Imperial Monarchy faction is mainly the Emperor himself, but since it is impossible for the Emperor to personally participate in the conspiracy to overthrow the Duke of Nanling, then in addition to exerting influence in attitude, the Imperial Faction should have other real executors, and this executor is likely to be related to the Imperial nobles or big businessmen who have suffered losses in the currency war in that part of the Empire, because they are born with a sense of hatred for the Silver Rose family, and they are very suitable executors. ”

"And then there are the remnants of our royal family. Here, Adesil said very bluntly, "There are mainly two groups, the civil resistance group inherited from the Twenty-One War period, and the remnants of our New Dragon Song Dynasty, whose purpose is to restore the country, and—"

Edhill hesitated: "I, and my heirs......"

Evanian didn't speak, nor did she interrupt, so Eddie Hill continued, "Finally, the strangest thing is the church, judging from the current situation, they were repelled by you once, and from the perspective of political motives, they have no absolute need to overthrow Duke Southridge. But should it be said that 'faith'? It is precisely because it is a logical, illogical attack that cannot be measured by political logic and motives, so I think that they will be the most unpredictable of all forces, but if possible, they will definitely be the craziest enemies of the Silver Rose family - they will definitely not send charcoal to Nanling, but they will inevitably add fuel to the fire. ”

"And after knowing what enemies they might have, it's a simple matter to consider what kind of means they have to destroy Nanling. ”
