"It depends on what you think is justice." Panakeria Road.

"This war is destined to cause countless casualties, but the benefits of great unification for the future of mankind are visible.

The integration of resources, technology, and economy will accelerate the development of mankind and even allow mankind to go out of the galaxy.

It is the choice of justice in the present or justice in the future. ”

"I don't choose any of these, I only choose the interests of the principality." Saul is fair.

"From the perspective of the interests of the principality, after the success of the great unification, the principality will gain a larger land, more resources, and more population. ”

"But what if it fails?"

After a pause, Duke Panakia looked at Xia Lian, "Duke Helios, what do you think?" Although the Emperor is not the direct murderer of your father, he is also an indirect murderer. ”

"Why do you ask this question when you know that?" Xia Liandao.

"The status of the Principality of Helios in the Empire is no lower than that of the Principality of Bahram, so your opinion is important to us."

"I want to ask a question." Xia Lian spoke quietly, "Do you think so confidently that after the war is over, the Emperor will definitely let you go?" ”

"If he wasn't going to let us go, he could have killed us from the beginning instead of imprisoning us here."

"That only means that we are useful to him, but it does not mean that he will release us, probably for fear that the identities of those transigants disguised as us will be discovered.

And our presence is the last bargaining chip to appease the principality. Xia Lian continued.

"Even after the victory of the war, he gave us more land and resources, and let us selectively forget all the unhappiness of the past.

But from the moment he imprisoned us here, the seeds of doubt were planted.

I ask you, if the war is won and you succeed in returning, and if one day after that, the Emperor re-organizes such a feast of kings, will you go? ”

They were silent, but silence was, in a sense, also an answer.

"That's the answer." Xia Lian said with a smile.

"You and I are not the hounds of the Emperor, and after being beaten, I will continue to wag my tail and beg for mercy at his feet when I give him a bone.

Conversely, the same is true of the Emperor, and from the moment you oppose his decision, there will be no trust between the kings and ministers.

Although I have always believed that the world is based on profit, I also believe that loyalty supported by profit alone is not secure.

I don't think the Emperor would have failed to understand this.

Taking 10,000 steps back, if the Great Emperor really lets us go back, the possibility that we will be able to divide the resources of the new federation and the sea of stars is actually not very large.

If I were the Emperor, I would never allow such a group of disobedient Grand Dukes who have no respect for me to continue to grow.

War will cost countless lives and displacement, but it is also undeniable that it is also the fastest shortcut to class progress.

Countless new nobles will be born in this war.

Rather than giving land to the old aristocracy, it is better to use the land to support a new group of nobles.

Moreover, it is also possible that these nobles are from the New Federation and from the Star Sea.

Because they have hatred for us, the old nobles, because it is we who destroy their homeland, and the new nobles will form a force that binds us.

As he has done in the past, he put the two feuding families of the Bahram family and the Helios family together to contain each other.

When needed, it is used to create an obstacle and amplify the conflict between the two.

Of course, this is the best outcome.

I'm more inclined that he won't let us go back.

"We" will be assassinated by the New Federation or the Star Sea on the eve of the end of the war.

He then selected an obedient man from the clan to succeed him as Grand Duke. ”

This is contrary to what Xia Lian chatted with the queen before, in fact, Xia Lian didn't believe a word of what the queen said, but the chat with high emotional intelligence naturally had to follow the other party's words.

Xia Lian's words silenced several grand dukes present, and the entire restaurant fell silent.

Then, Duke Panakya continued, "From the perspective of interests, what the Duke of Helios said may be the most in the interests of the Emperor. ”

"I don't think you'll leave your fate in the hands of anyone else." Xia Liandao.

"But there's nothing we can do right now." Saul is fair.

Xia Lian glanced at the people who were serious in the scene, and used the encrypted channel of AS to communicate with them, "What if, I have a way? ’

They all shifted their gaze to Xia Lian.

'You convinced the queen?' Solgong was amazed and said, 'How do you feel?' ’

'You say this.... Is it a polyphonic word? Xia Lian complained, "It has nothing to do with the queen, I have the rest of the way to let you leave and return to your principality."

But .....'

Xia Lian's words paused, and he looked at the Grand Duke present, "What can I gain?" ’

You're so direct. Panachea complained.

But after a pause, he continued, 'If you can really get us out of here, the Duchy of Panakea will always be the most loyal ally of the Duchy of Helios.

This is my promise, you can record it in your as, you should know that a grand duke, will not make such a promise easily. ’

I also made the same promise, I have long been tired of staying in the palace, or my palace is comfortable. 'Sol justice.

'Even if, let you join me in the rebellion against the Empire?' Xia Lian asked again.

Once again, the Grand Dukes fell silent.

"Of course, this is not something that will happen, an empire that is torn apart, no one will like it.

It's just that in this world, fate doesn't usually act on our will, just as we don't want to stay here. Xia Lian continued.

"If that time comes, Panakya will still be by Helios' side." Panakia said.

"Seconded." Hestia justice.

"I also agree that if that day comes, I don't think any of us will be able to do it alone."

Xia Lian slowly hooked the corners of his mouth.

Then he got up from his seat, 'Go find the rest of the trusted Grand Dukes to join us, and send me the list then.' ’

"No problem." Panachea bowed, "However, you haven't told us how you will take us away." ”

"You'll know when the time comes."

With that, Xia Lian slowly left the restaurant, but met an unexpected person on the way.

In the garden leading to his room, the Emperor was watching the starry sky with the Empress, and in the garden there was a table with some pastries and tea, and several Transhuman guards on each of them.

As if sensing Xia Lian's arrival, the Emperor turned his gaze to Xia Lian, and those unique eyes full of time met Xia Lian's eyes...
