Chapter 300: The Storm of Atiro (1)

"Believe me, okay? Believe me......" - (Believe me, I'm still the same me, I haven't changed.) So, I came up with something that would attract these princes, and I attracted them all. But ......"

"Therefore he who is good at moving the enemy, the enemy will follow him, and if he gives it, the enemy will take it." Move it with profit, treat it with pawn...... Are you familiar with this passage? From a quote from your "On Chess?"

"Well...... When I said goodbye to the old emperor, I had the holy decree in my hand. Then I was guarded by a kind of secret guard, and returned to my little palace in the palace. ”

"Well...... The old emperor died the next day. And at the last moment, he took my hand and said to me, 'I'm sorry, my child, I never gave you anything...... I hope you will be happy'—but to the princes, my brothers, what they value is not this sentence, but the fact that the old emperor said something to me before he died. ”

―――――――――――――――― dividing line

After hearing what Chloe said, Eco basically had some clues in his mind.

First of all, it is about the sentence "Therefore, he who is good at moving the enemy, the form of the enemy, the enemy will follow it, and give it, the enemy will take it." Move it with profit, treat it with a pawn" - this sentence was quoted by Eco and written into the "Analects of Chess", which originally came from the "Art of War" chapter of "The Art of War", and this sentence was translated. It is "a man who is good at mobilizing enemy forces." Show the enemy a real or false military situation. The enemy army will inevitably follow according to this judgment, and if the enemy army is given a little practical benefit as bait, the enemy army will inevitably come to us in favor of profit, and thus listen to our maneuver. On the one hand, these methods should be used to mobilize the enemy's troops, and on the other hand, it is necessary to be vigilant. ".

And here, what Chloe means by this is that she has attracted the princes with something that is attractive enough, or at least "in the eyes of the princes". Although it is not known how Chloe brought them down at this time, there is no doubt about it. "Give the enemy a little practical benefit as bait, and the enemy will inevitably come to the advantage", Chloe did.

As for how to "build momentum" and the so-called "actual benefits", Eco has basically guessed it. However, after Eco told Chloe about his conjecture, he was told by Chloe that he still overlooked a small detail.

This detail is the point of "showing the enemy a true or false military situation, and the enemy will inevitably judge and follow according to it...... And according to Chloe's "practical operation" and "translation", it is to show weakness and make people look down on themselves.

"Me...... It's your own. There are only two men and four women around him, such a poor guard, and a few maids as attendants, such an auraless lineup. Return to this imperial capital and come to the old man's funeral. Sending him off for the last ride?" Chloe seemed a little happy when talking about his "weakness" process, "And then, after I entered the capital, I was dressed as an ordinary aristocratic lady......? To put it simply, it looks like a vase in both horizontal and vertical directions, and there are not many guards and maids around, but in short, she is a girl who has no characteristics other than her good looks--this is the impression I want to leave on my brothers. ”

"And after entering the palace and staying in the palace arranged for me by the palace attendants, I also left the impression that 'the little princess hardly leaves the house'?" Chloe took a leisurely sip of tea, "although because of this face, it is impossible for me to be completely ignored, and it is impossible for no one to visit, or in fact, basically every brother and sister has been here once or twice." But with a little bit of language skills, and a little bit of language to the other party, so that the other party can make a long speech and then echo it, it is easy to make the brothers and sisters who don't know much about me think that I am just a teenage girl - by the way, in these receptions, I think I must have basically achieved the appearance of a 'quiet sister'. ”

…… Eco could understand what Chloe meant. Although it was very simple to listen to Chloe, it sounded as if she had not done anything at all, just closed the door and waited for someone to come to the door. And when I receive others, I only listen more than I speak. However, it is precisely because of this that it is even more despised.

Taking advantage of his natural beauty, and then deliberately dressing up to be beautiful and weak, it is very likely that people will define Chloe as the weak party. And because Chloe is beautiful enough, this "first impression" will probably be remembered quite firmly by the brothers and sisters, right? Then, the second impression is set when Chloe "stays at home" and receives her brothers and sisters. Because of Chloe's good conversation skills, and everyone's first impression of Chloe's "weak and beautiful" is relatively deep, as long as Chloe is a little quieter, these visitors, especially the boys, will consciously start to brag, right? After all, it is in front of beautiful girls, after all, in front of their "quiet sister".

-- Perhaps, sometimes, it turns out that listening is more important than simply talking.

You must know that in the current Luoyin Academy, students above the third grade basically know the name of Chloe, the secretary of the student union (now the secretary is correct), and they all know that she is not a character to be underestimated. Labels such as "vase" and "weakness", but basically no one would think that these are suitable for this secretary.

In addition, Chloe was born as the "youngest princess", and it was not easy to be considered a strong contender for the throne. Therefore, after the combination of many factors, Chloe showed weakness...... Not to say that it has achieved 100 points, but 90 points is definitely worth it. This is also Chloe's first step to "build momentum".

Then, after showing weakness, it is the second step of "inducement".

- "Give it." The enemy will take it". That's what Eco guessed. Chloe succeeded in her first step of "showing weakness". The next thing is to take advantage of the fact that he is "the last heir to see the old emperor" - of course. Originally, according to Chloe's plan, this step may have been intended to be otherwise, but after a day-long meeting with the old emperor, Chloe made some changes to this plan.

At such a sensitive moment, Chloe was so unexpectedly dragged by the old emperor to talk all day, she would definitely be suspicious of her brothers and sisters. However, because the first step of "showing weakness" is better, everyone is suspicious no matter what. It was absolutely impossible to think that the old emperor would let Eco succeed to the throne - this thought was completely extinguished in the minds of every prince as soon as it appeared.

And the old emperor, of course, did not say such a thing to Chloe (let her inherit the throne). The old emperor only said that after his death, after his funeral, Chloe should hurry out of this place, escorted by his secret guards, far away from here, from this place of right and wrong. Then wait until the new emperor succeeds to the throne before coming up - here I will not go into detail about the various methods that the old emperor came up with in order to protect Chloe, but such an old emperor also made Chloe rarely moved.

However, while moving, Chloe also thought of the second step of "building momentum".

Especially the old emperor "gave me a whole bunch of things." Even a beautiful town and a decree that no one of the emperor's successors would ever touch my hair. After that, the above is not to mention, the point is the "Divine Decree". At the end of receiving the holy decree. Chloe's action was "When I said goodbye to the old emperor, I had the holy decree in my hand. Then I was guarded by a kind of secret guard, and returned to my little palace in the palace. "—Of course, this is for the brothers.

In his hand, Chloe held the holy decree given to him by the old emperor, and Chloe was accompanied by the escort of the secret guards, as well as the subsequent protection. When such a scene was seen by those princes, what would they think in their hearts?

First of all, no matter how suspicious they were, they would not think that Chloe was going to succeed to the throne.

And then Chloe is not going to succeed to the throne, but is there anyone who will say...... Is there a holy decree that Chloe did not have before he went in, but "suddenly" appeared after he came out, and there was a description of the identity of the "heir to the throne"?

It's hard to say. Especially after the old emperor's secret guards escorted Chloe all the way back to his own palace and protected him - Chloe did not need the princes to be "convinced" of this, it was enough for them to be suspicious and suspicious.

Or rather, it is precisely because of suspicion that it is easier for them to take the bait.

Then, then, after Chloe's plan had already been implemented, the icing on the cake was that when the old emperor returned to the light, because he was thinking about his youngest and most beautiful daughter, he called Chloe in and told him something on his deathbed, and said some very warm words.

The problem is that the princes don't necessarily think that the old emperor called Chloe in to say these things. Especially the old emperor originally had the impression of the princes as a hard-liner style.

So, when the old emperor died, Chloe was once again escorted back to his own palace by the secret guards, closing the door and pretending to be mysterious - this is also the so-called "keeping all the qiē in an atmosphere of suspense"...... But apparently it works well, at least everyone pays attention to it.

"And then?" Although she already had a rough idea in her mind, Eco really wanted to hear from Chloe herself, about how she had tricked her brothers into getting there and managed to bring them down.

"And then, of course, it's just a way to get all my brothers together...... As for what to use, of course it is this holy decree in my hand?" Chloe raised the holy decree in his own hand, which was originally used by the old emperor to save Chloe's life and prevent her from being bullied or even persecuted by the rest of the princes. A big smile was revealed.
