When Su Ya said this, her expression suddenly froze: "Hmph, there is such a deficit within the empire, His Majesty the Emperor is naturally more anxious to take power from the temple, and at the beginning of this year, there was a great drought in the south, and the tax revenue of several southern provinces was greatly reduced, not to mention the central provinces and Lingbei provinces, just to raise the army would almost consume most of the tax revenue."

At this time, His Majesty the Emperor's eyes naturally fell on the sacred provinces in the northeast! You must know that the Papal States have always been in the hinterland of the empire, and the level of economic development and prosperity is no less than that of several provinces in the south. If you can pull out the tax revenue from the Holy Province, it will also relieve some of the pressure on the empire.

But the Papal States are not only unwilling to spend taxes to support the imperial finances, but instead ask the royal family for the cost of repairing the Basilica of St. Maud, which makes our emperors very annoyed!"

Qiao Se also frowned and said nothing, and thought for a moment before looking at Su Ya suspiciously: "Then what do you mean?"

"The Ellios family has always been on the side of the royal family since the founding of the country, and even if His Majesty does not trust the family now, at most it is just to reduce the family's power.

The family has assisted the royal family for hundreds of years, and has experienced dozens of generations of inheritance, which not only has a glorious period of outstanding achievements and deep trust of the emperor, but also encounters some examples of emperors who do not trust the family and suppress and snub the family...... Actually, the last time I came back from the palace, I had already weighed it up.

His Majesty Mondevideo IV was an extremely intelligent man, and even if he was suspicious of the Ellios family, he would not openly attack the family. The Ellios family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and it can be said that it is an ancient family that was established together with the empire. Even if there is no official power in the family, just with this qualification, no one can easily shake it!"

When Su Ya said this, although her voice was very soft, her tone revealed a little bit of pride and confidence.

"Jose, let me tell you this......" Su Ya pondered for a moment, although she knew that she was sitting in the car with herself and would not be eavesdropped by anyone, but she still involuntarily lowered her voice:

"Although His Majesty the Emperor today is a little mediocre, he is by no means a stupid fellow! My grandfather once told me about him when he was alive, and when he said that this Emperor was the Emperor at that time, he commented on him: 'He is extremely proud of his temperament, but his talent and resourcefulness are much worse, and if he were the Emperor, I am afraid that his heart and bearing are far from enough!'

Grandfather rarely looked at the wrong person in his life, so I trust his judgment. And from what I know of His Majesty the Emperor, his mind is extremely intelligent, and his means and scheming are comparable to those of Emperor Mondevia I. Although he will distrust the family, snub the family, and even suppress the family, he will not put the family to death!"

"Oh, you seem to have a lot of confidence...... But I always feel that His Majesty the Emperor is very scheming and the city government, and he is almost the most difficult person I have ever seen through his mind! With such a superior person, I always feel a little uneasy in my heart, Su Ya, I still want to remind you...... There is always a way out!"

José pondered for a moment, and then said these words slowly, with a deep concern and worry in his tone and expression.

"I understand what you said...... Su Ya suddenly sighed, her beautiful eyes showed a little sadness, she glanced at Jose with some hesitation, and then said slowly: "Joseph, do you know, in fact, after I came back from the palace last time, when I went to the military headquarters to report on my work, I saw Uncle Heru......"

"Heru?!" Jose was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered, this is the name of the former governor of Moxi!

"The war in the northwest was calmed down, and General Heru, although he was considered to be unfavorable in the war, removed the governor of Moxi from his post. But after all, he has military rank and qualifications, and even if he loses in battle, the most he can do is to remove the military power of the officer, and unless it causes serious consequences, even if he is held responsible, there will not be many serious consequences.

General Heru told me that he knew that returning to the imperial capital to stand trial would mean handing over all the power in his hands, which would probably never be used again, and would even be suppressed on trumped-up charges. Even if you don't cut off all your positions, I'm afraid you will be casually arranged by the military department for a quiet position, and then thrown into the corner of the military department to slowly retire, unless the northwest is completely under the hands of the empire, otherwise you can only live under house arrest in the imperial capital in this life.

But he didn't choose, even if he had tens of thousands of Northwest Army under his command, he didn't choose to disobey His Majesty's orders or do anything wrong. Let's put it this way, His Majesty the Emperor thought that Heru would rebel, and even arranged for the soldiers of the Central Fortress to be dispatched, intending to use a quick knife to cut off this rotten piece of rotten meat in the northwest, but he surprised everyone!

He gave up the tens of thousands of Northwest Army that could be easily mobilized in his hands, and came to the imperial capital alone to stand trial, and even His Majesty the Emperor himself did not expect that he would really do this! And he did this for only one purpose - to compromise!"

Su Ya's voice was full of bitterness, so that Qiao Se couldn't help but sigh a little when he heard it, he looked at Su Ya's expression, slowly shook his head and said: "What is he doing this for?

"Loyalty, stupidity, I'm afraid there are some!" Su Ya sighed and said with a wry smile: "José, you don't understand, the family has the interests of the family, but there are also the principles of the family. The Ellios family has been inherited for hundreds of years, although it cannot be said that every generation of family heirs is a pillar of the empire, but there will never be any rebellious ministers and thieves who will cause trouble to the empire!

On the contrary, even if His Majesty the Emperor no longer trusts the family, he will never attack the family!Because an ancient family like the Ellios family has always been almost glorious under the glory of the royal family, and the two have almost become a symbol of the empire, a model for the monarch and a model for the courtiers!!

To put it mildly, even if my Ellios family has any disobedience, His Majesty the Emperor will only suppress it with all his might at most, but he will not wipe out the family. Because the Ellios family, as the oldest family in aristocratic politics, is almost a banner among the aristocratic families, and the royal family needs this flag!

Even if Mondevideo IV cultivated a new upstart like the Normans, it was only to suppress and balance the Ellos. His Majesty the Emperor, even if he hates the Ellios family, still needs this banner to stabilize the balance within the empire!!"
