Chapter Ninety-Eight: Yang Mou
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The Liszt family is indeed very calculating, and the plot is also very big!
As things stand, the Gothic is in line to the throne and is actually second only to the prince.
And the goal of the Liszt family is to climb to a future emperor and make the family get a substantial take-off.
The prince rejected the marriage of the Liszt family, so the Goth became the target of the Liszt family!
The most delicate part of this matter is that all the links of the matter are pinned on Rodelle's marriage!
If Rodelle can marry Goth and this matter becomes a fact, then the Liszt family will use their century-old family wealth and all their connections, as well as their influence in all aspects of the empire, to start this war for succession!
This is by no means a phenomenon that Du Weiwei wants to see.
As the helmsman of the Tulip family, Du Weiwei's sense of mission and responsibility makes the duke of the Tulip family naturally have a sense of responsibility for the empire.
What Du Weiwei asked for is very clear: even if there is a change of throne, even if the emperor has no queen, if he wants to choose another heir to the crown prince, this matter must be smooth and excessive, and there must be no civil strife or internal friction!
This kind of thing is related to the struggle for the throne, and it has always been the most cruel, bloody, and darkest and dirtiest struggle in any world!
The struggle for the throne is by no means a personal war, but will pull all the families and forces involved in the entire group of the two sides into this whirlpool.
And the consequences of this kind of war are also extremely tragic! Whoever is on the victorious side will do the first thing to do after taking the throne is: purge!
Cleanse the defeated side once and for all!
"The most crucial part of the Liszt family's ambitious plan is that by doing so, they will involve my tulip family in this dangerous whirlpool! This is their most proud hand! It can even be regarded as a conspiracy. â
Du sighed slightly.
"Why do you say that?" asked Chen Daolin.
"Because. As normal. Even if the Liszt family leaned on the Gothic. They did their best to help the Goths fight for the throne, but they were still at a disadvantage, after all, the prince was the recognized first in line to the throne, and he would gather a group of supporters around him. My tulip family has always been reluctant to participate in any struggle for the throne. Because the struggle for the throne is actually a kind of political speculation, and if you lose the bet, it is likely that the whole family will be wiped out! If you win the bet, you will gain a lot! But my tulip family is already the first wealthy family in the empire" "No matter who takes the throne as emperor, the position of my tulip family has been solidified. Think about it, it is already the first wealthy family in the empire, what room is there to go up? If you want to go up, unless it is ...... Rebel. â
Speaking of this, Du Wei smiled bitterly: "But my family has never had such an idea, if my Tulip family wants to be the emperor, it can be done in the era of His Royal Highness the First Duke Du Wei, so why wait until today." Since I don't want to usurp the throne. Anyway, there is no room to go up, so there is no need to participate in this kind of dangerous political gambling. Anyway, whoever becomes the emperor will come to win over our tulip family. Therefore, in the process of the change of emperors in previous generations, the Tulip family has always kept a distance from the princes and will not get involved in this kind of thing. â
Du sighed slightly, and said with a wry smile: "The patriarch of the Liszt family, that old gentleman is also an extraordinary person, but this time his plan happened to count my tulip family! Hmph...... Once they take down the Goths, after the marriage, and do their best to help the Goths fight for the throne, then my Tulip family will no longer be able to stay out of it......! The most vicious part of this strategy is that my tulip family will probably have to help the Goths ascend to the throne! This is definitely against the principles of my tulip family!"
"Why?" Chen Daolin didn't understand: "Why do you Tulip Family have to support Goth if you push the Goth out......?"
"Because he is a Goth!" Du Wei's eyes flashed slightly, and his tone was very solemn: "He is a descendant of the great Lion Knight Lord Hussein! His ancestor is the closest comrade-in-arms of Lord Du Wei, the first Duke of my Tulip Family, the most trusted general, and the greatest meritorious person in the legendary era created by my Tulip Family!"
Hussein.
This name Chen Daolin is very unfamiliar and unfamiliar.
But for the Roland Empire, the name is thunderous!
In the era of the Tulip Family, pioneered by Du Wei, the Demon Knights swept the world and became invincible. Hussein is the chief knight of the Demon Knights, and it can be said that he is the most relied on by the Tulip family!
Moreover, this man had a very deep personal relationship with Du Wei, the first duke of the Tulip family, which is enough to show according to various existing legends.
Legend has it that in the past, that Hussein knight was born and died for the Tulip family countless times, and made great contributions, and his feats were extremely prominent! He was the most powerful and trusted general beside Du Wei, the first Duke of the Tulip family, and also had a very high influence and appeal in the army!
And most importantly...... He's the chief grand knight of the Demon Knights!
Although the Demon Knights were founded by Du Wei, the first duke of the Tulip family, and it was also led by Du Wei. But Du Wei is a commander after all, and most of the time he is in charge of the overall situation, and the one who directly leads the Demon Knights is the Grand Knight Hussein.
This is very important!
Although a hundred years have passed since that era, the thunderous names of the past have long since become history.
Although those legendary demon knights have gone into hiding with Du Wei, their descendants still remain in the Roland Empire and are active in various fields!
Especially in the army of the Empire, the descendants of the Demon Knights occupy an important position in many places, and have extensive influence and connections!
"The Kaman you know, this guy is still young, but he is already considered to be the rising star of the emperor's ** team, although he is still only being thrown into the army of the eastern fortress to experience, but his files are directly stored in the zĂ i emperor's ** department! The high-level bigwigs are very concerned about him! The most important thing is that Kaman's father is still in power! His father is the chief general of the defense line of the western fortress of the empire, commanding the 'Thor's Whip' army of 100,000 people! That is one of the ace legions of the empire! And Rodriguez IV. His father has stepped down though. But he used to be the commander of my Tulip Family's private army! His command of my Tulip Family's private army was his command!"
Du sighed slightly. continued: "The descendants of the Demon Knights have always maintained a very deep personal relationship, and they are all in the same breath with each other, and their friendship is irreversible! Don't look at the two guys Kaman and Luo Puppy who are jealous of the Lodel people, but they are really going to be fatal. The two are definitely a life-and-death friendship!
The Gothic guy was in a special situation, his ancestors died very young, and he became an orphan very early. Because of this, it has aroused everyone's sympathy. The descendants of the Demon Knight treat him as if he were their own nephew. When Goth was very young, everyone took great care of him. All the way he grew up, he was noticed by the descendants of the Demon Knights, because he had no parents, so everyone took special care of him, even better than their own children. In addition to his own talent, a large part of the reason why Goth was able to achieve so much at such a young age was because of the care of all parties. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and even my father personally taught him martial arts! When he joined the army, the bigwigs of the descendants of the Demon Knights in the army were extremely optimistic about him. Grow all the way, take care of it......
Imagine. So many bigwigs treat him as if he is their own nephew, such a deep feeling, once the Goths openly launch a competition for the status of the crown prince, will those bigwigs sit idly by?
And the most important thing is that Goth is a descendant of the Demon Knights! And the Demon Knights belong to my tulip family! In any case, the name has been deeply branded with the Demon Knights!
Those bigwigs of the Demon Knights have always been the staunchest supporters of my Tulip Family's "Heavenly Pride Peerless Chapter Ninety-Eight", once they make it clear that they want to support Goth, my Tulip Family, although as the sect master, will not be able to refuse their request to support Goth!
If those bigwigs ask for support for the Goths, what will I, the patriarch of the Tulip family, do?
I can't refuse! Because if I refuse, I will be considered cold-blooded and disregard for old feelings! I will be ungrateful! Even those bigwigs of the descendants of the Demon Knights, those uncles and uncles who are still in power, will have a grudge against me, the head of the young Tulip family!
My father has retired, this is my biggest weakness! I am too young, if my father is here, he can naturally use his prestige to subdue those uncles and uncles, but after all, I am just a young woman, although I am the orthodox heir of the Tulip family, but if I want those uncles and uncles to completely surrender to me, I always need to wait for me to grow up slowly, get older, and make a few convincing contributions, in order to truly convince people's hearts!
And at this stage, once everyone asks to support the Goths, I, the patriarch of the Tulip family, can't refuse the public's will!
This is the calculation and planning of the Liszt family! Once they marry the Goths, once they push the Goths out to compete for the throne, with the identity of the 'descendants of the Demon Knights', the Goths will be supported by a large number of descendants of the Demon Knights!
Moreover, even I, the head of the Tulip family, will have to succumb to the expectations of the public and be kidnapped to support the Goths together!"
Chen Daolin understood!
What a weight the tulip family is!
If in the battle for the throne, once the Tulip family makes it clear that it supports a certain side, it will definitely be a qualitative change! To exaggerate, it can almost completely lay the tide of the war!
"And, most importantly, ...... Even if I did do it against my will, even if I did support the Goths ascending to the throne as the future emperor of the empire...... In this matter, it is the Liszt family that will benefit the most! They can become the wives of the future emperor of the empire, and with the foundation accumulated over the past hundred years, they will become the political and wealthy families of the empire! But my tulip family will not get any benefits at all!
My Tulip family is already the number one wealthy family in the empire, and doing this kind of thing will ruin our goodwill in the hearts of those neutral families, and we will destroy the rules we have established!
What's more, once the Goth ascends to the throne and becomes the emperor, it will be even more dangerous to my tulip family!"
"Danger, where does the danger come from?" After all, Chen Daolin didn't know much about politics.
"Hmph, the patriarch of the Liszt family thinks that I am a young woman, and I must not have thought of this, but I have already seen his calculations! That's the arrival of the crisis of my tulip family!" Du Weiwei's face was solemn: "This patriarch of the Liszt family. It's really calculating!"
"I ...... Don't understand. Chen Daolin shook his head: "Miss." Please, can you be clear?"
Du looked at Chen Daolin with wide eyes, frowned, and said, "Darling, you and I talked all night, and you were martial arts." Talking about the past and the present, I think you are a very knowledgeable person and have a sensitive sense of smell for politics. Why can't you see through this?"
Chen Daolin spread his hands and blinked his eyes: "I didn't expect that Lord Duke would have such a high opinion of me, which will disappoint you." I really don't understand this. â
"......" Du frowned slightly and looked at Chen Daolin, and sighed: "Actually, it's not difficult to see clearly, the biggest key is ...... The natural opposition between the imperial power and the tulip family!"
Chen Daolin's heart moved!
Although he is not the kind of genius who is extremely intelligent, after all, he has received a complete system of modern education in the real world, and he has also studied politics and philosophy.
And most importantly, in the modern world. All kinds of historical documents are casually read, and all kinds of official and wild histories are everywhere. There are also all kinds of movies and television, novels, and palace fights.
So this kind of political conspiracy or something, although it is not his strong point, but he doesn't know how much he has seen, the so-called familiar with 300 Tang poems, he can't compose poems and can chant.
Chen Daolin himself is also quite smart, and he understands it at a glance!
The natural opposition between the imperial power and the tulip family!
Yes!!
The Tulip family is too strong to be indifferent to the subjects of the empire, but for the imperial power, the survival of a courtier who is too powerful is by no means a blessing for the royal family!
The most important reason why the current emperor of the empire can coexist peacefully with the tulip family, and that several generations can be safe, is that the current emperor of the empire has been with the tulip family from the ancestors!
The emperor and the duke of Tulip are both descendants of Du Wei and are considered brothers.
This kind of blood closeness can resolve many contradictions on a large scale.
But...... Gothic is not!
The ancestor of the Goth is the Hussein knight! Not Du Wei's son! He is Du Wei's deployment, a war general, and a close comrade-in-arms!!
Once the Goth ascends to the throne, what does it represent? The "Entertainment Show" represents the emperor of the empire, and there will be no more Du Wei's blood in the future!!
In terms of blood, the future emperor and the Tulip family are no longer related by blood!!
This directly severed an important bond between the emperor and the tulip family!!
This is a hidden danger!
In addition, there is a second one! Moreover, this second hidden danger is even deeper!!
If Goth really became emperor, then ...... The antagonism between the imperial power and the tulip family will never go away!!
Even if Goth himself will not suppress the Tulip family, even if Goth himself will continue to coexist peacefully with the Tulip family because of his feelings for the Tulip family......
But don't go there, there's a saying in this world called "the ass decides the head!"
Whatever position you sit, you have to do something! Whatever your identity is, you have to assume whatever responsibility!
Who can guarantee that after Goth became emperor, he would not think about things from the emperor's standpoint?
As an emperor, a qualified emperor, you must consolidate the imperial power!
If the emperor wants to centralize power, he must cut power from the tulip family! This is a contradiction that is impossible to reconcile!
Once the Goth became the emperor, even if the Goth didn't do it, the descendants of the Goths would do it!
Once the Goths, the new royal family, had a conflict with the Tulip family......
Well, things are really troublesome!
Why?
Or the phrase "descendants of the Demon Knights"!!
Goth himself is a descendant of the Demon Knights, and everyone who votes for the descendants of the Demon Knights naturally has close feelings and affection for him!
And the power of the descendants of the Demon Knights is also the backbone of the Tulip family!!
At that time, once there was friction between the royal family represented by the Goths and the tulip family......
So, how will the group of descendants of the Demon Knights react?
On the other hand, there is the Tulip family, the suzerain that everyone has supported for generations.
On the one hand, it is the generations that have formed a deep friendship, and they are the descendants of the bloody comradeship that fought on the battlefield!!
When the time comes......
It is likely that the group of descendants of the Demon Knights will split! Some will remain loyal to the Tulip family, and some will support the Gothic royal family out of personal feelings......
This is tantamount to a split within the tulip family's power group!
This is the foundation of the Tulip family dug from within!!
"Good calculation!"
Chen Daolin figured out all these links, and he also let out a long sigh, admired it very much in his heart, and exclaimed: "That patriarch of the Liszt family is not an ordinary person! How did you come up with such a huge and far-reaching plan! The best thing is that once this plan is carried out, you, the patriarch of the Tulip family, have almost no good way to stop it, this is a yang scheme! Even if you know it, I am afraid that you will be pushed to go step by step according to the steps calculated by the other party!! And the biggest key is whether Rodelle can marry Goth!"
Du nodded solemnly, and then her face was a little helpless:
"As far as I know, that goth guy loves Rodelle very much!
"Huh, is Goth really in love with that girl from Lordelle, but I hear he seems to have refused......"
