Chapter 580: Epilogue: The Best Choice
There is a saying that individual interests must be subordinated to collective interests, but this is not absolute. The threat of Minos I has been eliminated, and the Ma Empire has also been unified, and everyone should have shared a peaceful time, but the contradiction between the Holy See of Light and the Goddess of Nature Cult has gradually worsened, and examples of people who can share hardships and hardships and cannot share prosperity abound, and there are many more of them, and there are not many of them, and there are many of them.
But those who can become the pinnacle powerhouses are of course less constrained, no matter what happens to the people below, the real controllers are deliberately suppressing the radical emotions in the sect, and they don't want these bad things to affect each other's feelings.
In a tavern in the Holy City, which had become an archbishop, Stan pushed open the door of a box and entered, while Mangshu was already waiting inside.
"You've always been very punctual, and today is a bit unusual. Mangshu laughed.
"Don't mention it. Stan sat on the chair opposite Mangshu with a helpless expression: "His Royal Highness the eldest prince Vest personally came to give me a wedding sticker and had to deal with him for a while." ”
"I received it too. Manshu paused: "Are you going?"
"Will you go??" Stan asked faintly.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and a figure appeared in their minds at the same time. After An Fei killed Minos I that day, he left them and the whole world with a lonely back, and there has been no news since then, but disappearing and not existing are two completely different things, not to mention that An Fei must have stepped into the Holy Order, who dares to guarantee that An Fei will not suddenly appear?
Therefore, on the issue of the successor of Yoland, whether it is the Holy See of Light or the Goddess of Nature, or the military represented by Beriery and Mioriich, they are deliberately maintaining an attitude of avoidance, even if they do not support Christin, they must not support the other two princes, otherwise something big will happen!
And Chris's advantage is becoming more and more obvious. Alice has become the uncrowned king of the eight provinces of Shining Sand, even if it is a decree from the holy city, Alice can only be implemented with a nod from Alice, and if Alice does not nod, it is a dead letter, and the management of several years has allowed her to accumulate immeasurable prestige in the eight provinces. In fact, Alice has a great advantage, and the eight provinces of Shining Sand are almost broken and standing. The originally bloated aristocratic official class was destroyed by Alice, and the rebuilt management system was not only lean, but also operated tremblingly under Alice's supervision, and no one dared to do evil. And the people of Shining Sand, whose heavy burden has been completely removed, that sense of happiness and lightness is indescribable in words, their thoughts are simple, whoever can make them live a good life is their benefactor, whoever wants to hurt Alice is to ruin their happy life. They risked their lives to protect Alice's people, and this is not empty talk!
Some people think that Alice's influence on the empire is getting bigger and bigger, and the potential threat to them is naturally becoming more and more serious, so they run to Yolander and speak ill of Alice all the time. It's a pity that Yolande implemented the restructuring in the early days. It is to alleviate social contradictions so that civilians can live a good life. In the end, due to various pressures, he had to stop what he had done to Alice. In addition to appreciating and appreciating, because Alice has done it, and Alice has done it, it will be difficult for him to do it in his whole life, at least he can't sweep all the nobles and officials in the country, and draw on white paper, of course, it is much easier, but in front of him is a piece of straw paper covered with graffiti, and it takes countless energy to change every place. In fact, reform is just as dangerous as war!
Chris has more than just a political advantage. Compared to the influence of the second prince Grandon in the Northern Front Army, he had a more trusted army. It would be interesting to see if Yolander and Granden had given the opposite order, and the Northern Front Corps would have obeyed the former, and the Kumorogo Sand Army would obey.
There are also Anthony and Huiwei who have become the big bosses and second masters in the mercenary world, monopolizing the magic crystal trade, making them rich and invincible in just a few years, and the mercenary group of the Grand Alliance has become an iron plate in the wind and rain again and again, no one wants to get involved, there are people who want to use tricks, there are people who make tricks, but there are no people who get benefits. There was even a farce that affected a lot, the merchants united and tried to force Anthony and Huiwei to bow their heads by striking food and other daily necessities, which made people feel sad that Alice, who was sitting in the eight provinces of Shansha, had a steady stream of materials at a very low price from the eight provinces of Shansha to the free province, which was the original country of mercenaries, and Yolande hinted at his promise in the name of freedom.
It turns out that no matter what plane the official * business * collude * is an invincible and powerful combination, it is almost impossible to defeat Alice and Anthony, unless a rich man and Yolande collude together, with Yoland's power can carry out a comprehensive suppression of Alice, the problem is that Yolande to make money... The novel is published in BSP; Political, military, and economic advantages aside, Anfei is for some people a sharp blade hanging over their heads or an invisible blade. If Anfei lived in the sun, they might be better, at this moment, they don't know when Anfei will appear, they don't know what Anfei is doing behind his back, they can't see or touch, but the threat that does exist is real, and it makes it difficult to sleep. As for An Fei's strength, no one questioned it anymore, the peak powerhouses who came to Greenwich Island that day were not people who sold their reputations, they openly admitted that if An Fei did not appear in the God of War Forbidden Demon Realm, it would be enough to plunge the whole world into the abyss. Is it difficult for a Holy Rank to kill a person? The answer is very clear, it is not difficult at all, Minos can fight against many peak powerhouses on his own, and An Fei, who killed Minos, can naturally do it.
While Manshul was talking to Stan, Yolande sat on the throne and looked at Chris with kind eyes, and Chriss's face was full of bitterness and his brow furrowed.
"Say what is in your heart. Yolande whispered.
Chris Ling let out a long sigh: "Father's conquest of the Shining Sand Empire and the Ellison Empire is not long, and now what the empire needs is stability......, and it only needs one voice! Fate really chose me, and I will let the eldest brother and second brother go to a place to retire. ”
"You're talking about house arrest, right?"
"Father, is my answer very dissatisfying?" Christing smiled bitterly, "After all, we are brothers...... They had always wanted to get the inheritance to the throne and I defeated them. They will never be reconciled, their presence will make the country very unstable, for the sake of the Mao Empire, I must control them. ”
Yolande was silent.
"Father, can I go?" Christianity suddenly showed a relaxed look on his face, regardless of the consequences. He had no guilt in his heart.
Yolande nodded, then slowly leaned back in his chair, he looked a little tired, and when Christine's back disappeared at the temple gate, the old man who was inseparable from Yolande quietly appeared behind Yolande.
A smile bloomed at the corner of Yoland's mouth, and then he laughed: "Do you remember what Grandon replied just now?"
"His Royal Highness the Second Prince said that he would work with His Highness and His Royal Highness to govern the Maao Empire prosperously. "Actually, Chris is right, an empire only needs one voice!"
"Your Majesty, I think ...... His Royal Highness the Second Prince is pleasing you. The old man laughed.
"I gave birth to him and raised him. It is also possible to make him the supreme king!He can lie in front of me, so who can be sincere in front of me?" Yolande said calmly, "If Grandon is telling the truth, it is not advisable, if he is telling a lie, it is even more undesirable!"
"Your Majesty, this is just a white lie. Your Royal Highness is also afraid of making you sad. ”
"Sad......" Yolande shook his head slightly, "When was Grandon the first time he sent flowers to Niya?"
"You're almost fourteen years old, and you've been laughing for a long time. The old man laughed.
"Do you think a fourteen-year-old knows love?"
"This ...... I don't think so. ”
"Isn't Chrissy stupid?"
He ...... How can you be stupid?!" The old man didn't understand the sublimination of Yoland's words. Stunned, he asked rhetorically.
"Then you say that Chrissey understands or not. What kind of benefits will it bring to him if he marries Niya?"
"Of course I do. The old man whispered.
"But Chrissy didn't do anything, he never did anything!" Yolande said slowly: "He used to learn magic from Thor, and he had a much better chance of getting along with Nia day and night than Granden, and the reason why he didn't do anything or even deliberately messed with Glendon was not because he couldn't see the gains and losses in it, but because he didn't want to take advantage of anyone." ”
"Did you notice the look on Chris's face when he left? Yolande paused. He continued: "He showed his thoughts to me without concealment. It's up to me to decide whether he is qualified to be the heir or not, and not to win my favor with some hypocritical kindness and justice. Hehe...... Compared to West, Granddon. I appreciate Chriss' sincerity even more!"
The old man sighed lightly, he already understood what Yolande was thinking, in fact, this is the best result, compared to West and Grandon, Christing's wings are the fullest, and he can enter the throne and retreat, and if he chooses someone else, it is very likely to set off a bloody storm! Alice can't be replaced, otherwise the eight provinces of Shining Sand will immediately become a mess, and the free provinces will be firmly controlled by the mercenary group of the Grand Alliance, and the most terrifying thing is that An Fei doesn't know where to hide, if he really wants to do something, the anger of a holy order is unimaginable, even if West or Grandon becomes king, then they will live in fear for the rest of their lives, is this for their good or harmful?
