Chapter 109: Moral Pillars
What Edlaide is doing now is completely beyond the scope of a local marquis's concern, and his ambition is obvious!
Gavin would never believe that his father would find out about something he was already aware of. Thinking of what his father had taught him today, Gavin's heart moved and he crossed over to the topic.
As for the Jihua book sent by Edlaide today, it is a supplement and continuation of the previous policies. This war is about the face of Heller and even the entire Monlin Empire, and Heller will definitely do his best to mobilize the elites in his hands as much as possible to encircle us and the Marquis of Edlaide, especially the Marquis of Edlaide! Originally, this idea was understandable to Heller, and under normal circumstances, there was a great possibility of success, but he completely ignored other people's opinions on this matter!"
"This is also Heller's fatal malaise! He always thinks that he will calculate everything, but he tends to ignore the important determinants of events, which also makes it difficult for Zuihou to achieve his goals, and even goes against his previous wishes in many cases!
"Just as this time Heller thought that we and the Marquis of Edredde would at least look at each other angrily, and he would never have thought that we could cooperate with each other, and not only that, but he was also unstable, and Empress Athena jumped out first, and she wanted to finally determine the status of the eldest princess Jima Munlin as the heir through this matter, which changed the nature of the matter drastically. It also caused most of the real power in Monlin to hang themselves on the high and avoid getting involved until the situation became clear. This also made Heller, who had a big advantage, become a person who dealt with us and the Marquis of Edlaide alone, one advancing and one retreating, although Heller still had the advantage, but it has become less obvious!"
"In this way, Heller is tantamount to giving the Marquis of Edlaide a chance to counterattack him, and for a person like the Marquis of Edlaide, who is good at seizing opportunities, he will never give up easily!
"The arson of the mansion is the marquis's reminder to us, in fact, it is also jihua outside jihua! We will never be willing to be framed at will, we will try our best to teach each other a lesson. The arson of the house is an opportunity, as long as the time of arson is properly adjusted, they will never be able to get out of the way!"
"And at the same time, we only need to cooperate with Jihua and Edlaide, and Heller will suffer the most tragic disaster!And Edlaide will easily flee into the mountains after hitting Heller's high-end Liliang hard, and there is no need to worry too much about being pursued too strongly!" Gavin saw a relieved smile on his father's lips, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became.
Once Edlaide escaped from the Monlin Empire, he would definitely make a big deal about his escape and achieve the goal of angering Heller. This will make Heller suspicious of the people involved in the entire operation, and it will be difficult for them to continue to be reused, and the loss of talent will further weaken the strength of the Monlin Empire!"
"By the time Heller realizes that he has been fooled, he will probably have no power to return to heaven, as long as Edlaide successfully completes his escape, the Monlin Empire will probably collapse!" Gavin didn't expect to come to such a conclusion, he was stunned by his own reasoning!
"It's finally like a little bit, since you mentioned Jihua, what do you think of this Jihua book?"
"Although this jihua doesn't seem to be a problem on the surface, I always have a question?"
"Oh, tell me about it!"
"Would the Marquis of Edlaide be so subjective as to set the location of the other party's ambush on Rochester Street?" Gavin asked as he looked at Yule with a puzzled face.
Yule didn't answer him immediately, but smiled and waited for him to find an answer on his own.
"Could it be that someone in Edlaide has already penetrated Heller's interior and knows all about Heller's Jihua, otherwise how could he be so sure that Heller will do it on Rochester Street?"
"What we haven't done in more than ten years, Edlaide can't do it in a few days, you're kind of lifting him up too high!" Yule said with a smile, and then he continued to look at Gavin, who made it clear that he was letting Gavin find the answer himself.
Gavin tried for a while, but couldn't figure out the trick, and he looked at Yule with some embarrassment and shook his head.
"It seems that you have been with me for too long, and you are too unfamiliar with those methods that cannot be used on the stage!" Yule smiled wryly and waved his hand, Gavin was a flower he placed in the greenhouse, it was already good to be able to behave like this, and he couldn't be too Gavin.
Edlaide couldn't put his hand on Heller's desk, but that didn't stop Heller from finding a way into his room! ”
"And if I'm the commander of the pick-up team, I'm going to try to add some vague elements to the team so I can let my enemies know what I want them to know. I'll put 'my thoughts' in a beautiful brocade box, or put a rose on top of a random box, and just get the attention of those elements, and the rest will be ridiculously easy!"
"As far as this Jihua is concerned, Edlaide is already doing this, and the other party must have seen the contents of the box, and with the annotations of the people around Edlaide, Heller will definitely get an answer that excites him, and this answer will continue to play with his fragile mind afterwards!"
"As long as it is used properly, the other party's people often play a greater role than their own people!"
"This bureau is just the beginning, and it was the people who really helped him perfect it later!" Yule said, nodding to the jihua book on the table.
"You say there's someone around Edlaide who is advising him?"
"There is such a person, but he is not by Edlaide's side at the moment!"
"Father, do you know this man?" asked Gavin, surprised.
"If he does come to Khauerfekhan, I'd love to see him in person!
"Who the hell is this guy?" Gavin didn't expect his father to hold this man in high esteem, and he was already starting to be a little curious.
"Fred, the son of General Sean of the Dongyu Empire!"
"The cripple?"
"You've heard of this guy too?"
"Every year, the Dongyu military holds horse races on the outskirts of Filano City, and Fred is always able to come up with some bizarre ways to help Dongyu's gentlemen win! Gavin is actually a gentleman of Meng Lin, and their attention to the phenomenon of the Dongyu Empire is just to add some novelty to their nonsense, but there is no capable person like Fred among them, so this kind of attention can only turn into envy. But it was for this reason that Gavin had heard of Fred's name.
"It's just that I've heard that Fred is a very withdrawn person, and rarely meets outsiders except for relatives and friends in the family. As far as I know, the Marquis has nothing to do with him, how could they get together?"
"Not many people know how they got together, but they did become good friends. After I had withdrawn from outside Wimbleton, I had a special person to investigate Edlaide, who had met with Fred a few times before the reinforcements departed. While our men haven't been able to figure out what they talked about during the meeting, I think it must have something to do with the battle that followed. Maybe by then, Fred was already giving advice to Edlaide!"
"Fred is characterized by his unique ideas, his imagination, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is whimsical. Although ordinary people also admire his talents, few really dare to put his jihua into practice. ”
And Edlaide's character happens to be bold and ruthless, like arson and burying wells, but in fact, few people really have the courage to do it. You know, all the things he did were on his own territory, and when the battle ahead was not completely clear, I can't think of anyone in the entire Dongyu Empire who would be so bold except for him!"
"One dares to think, the other dares to do! Both of them are geniuses, they are definitely a golden pair! The future of the Dongyu Empire belongs to them!" Yule glanced at Gavin meaningfully as he said this.
Gavin immediately understood that this was his father's answer to the question he had just asked, and he also understood why his father chose to join Edlaide for him!
"Since this jihua is so important to the Marquis, aren't we?" Gavin tried to plead with Edlaide to help transfer the rest of the family.
"Don't! Edlaide is a very good leader, he may not give you as much as you expect, but it will definitely exceed your dedication and ability!
"You study this Jihua carefully, take into account all the objective situations that may occur, and be sure not to have any problems on our side! If there is any haode suggestion, you can also talk to Edlaide at that time, and you must fully express the sincerity of our cooperation. ”
"You?" Gavin listened to his father's meaning, as if he wasn't going to attend the midnight meeting with Edlaide, and he looked at his father with questioning eyes.
"You young people go talk to each other, and I'm not going to go!" Yule said, as if he was already a little sleepy, and he waved Gavin away.
"My father completely agrees with your Jihua book!" Gavin said as he respectfully handed the Jihua book back to Li Zijun. With the previous analysis, Gavin no longer dared to treat Li Zijun with his original attitude, he behaved very humbly and completely put himself in the position of a subordinate.
Seeing that Yule did not appear, and Gavin had this attitude, Li Zijun understood that Yule had let the family switch to his own door. It was only because Yule himself wanted to keep something that he was absent from today's meeting.
Li Zijun was able to understand Yule's thoughts, so he didn't care, and tried his best to discuss the details of Jihua with Gavin on an equal footing. But Li Zijun soon found that the determination of the identities of the two parties made Gavin no longer able to face himself with a relaxed attitude, and although Jihua's entire finalization process went unusually smoothly, he still felt that something was missing. With the continuous rise of status, it is difficult for Li Zijun to find the happiness in the argument as before!
When the two parties were about to break up, Gavin couldn't hold back the question in his heart anymore, he hesitated, looked at Li Zijun and asked:
"Marquis, you didn't ask about my father from beginning to end?" Gavin had actually guessed some of his father's intentions, but he always felt that he still had something he hadn't discovered.
"Actually, seeing you come alone, I already understand General Yule's intentions, there is really no need to ask more, I will respect the old general's choice!" Li Zijun had already gotten up, and when he heard Gavin ask, he sighed and said.
"My father's choice?" Gavin always thought that his father asked him to come over alone in order to show Li Zijun an attitude, an attitude of loyalty and surrender! But listening to Li Zijun's words, there were other meanings, he asked a little puzzled.
"Actually, I had prepared a set of rhetoric before I came today, and I originally hoped to persuade the old general to leave the Monlin Empire with me. On the one hand, it is to prevent the old general from losing his life in Khorfekan, and on the other hand, I also hope to get the guidance and help of the old general in the future!"
"But the old general has obviously seen through my thoughts, and he has politely rejected me in the way he is now!" Li Zijun said with a sigh.
Because he has been preparing for cooperation with Li Zijun during this time, Gavin has ignored his father's matter, and when he heard Li Zijun mention it again, he realized that his father had made up his mind, so it was no wonder that he would spend so much time talking to himself about today's words, and he was actually explaining the aftermath to himself. All of a sudden, Gavin felt that his shijie had collapsed, he felt that the world was spinning, and his expression began to be in a trance.
"Gavin!" Li Zijun immediately whispered when he saw Gavin like this.
"What?" Gavin's heart was shocked, looking at Li Zijun who didn't know what had just happened, he hadn't fully woken up from the confusion just now.
"The old general let you come here alone today also means that he has completely believed that you can represent the interests of the family! Are you ready to repay his trust with this look?" Li Zijun knew that this time was very crucial for Gavin, if he couldn't wake Gavin quickly at this time, he was afraid that he would be decadent in an instant, or even sink. Li Zijun asked Gavin in an unusually stern tone.
"But father?"
"I hope you don't blaspheme the old general's loyalty to the Monlin Empire! Note that it is the loyalty to the Monlin Empire, not the Heller Bixia who abandoned the old general!" This matter has always been the place that Gavin dare not touch, after Yule leaves, Li Zijun must open Gavin's inner demon and set up a moral pillar for him from scratch!
Gavin looked at Li Zijun with shocked eyes, he had always thought that what he was doing was a betrayal, and it was actually so!
It's just that Li Zijun doesn't want Gavin to plant such a thought in his heart, so that he will feel sorry when facing the Monlin Empire in the future, and he must find a way to change Gavin's mind. As a result, he made a spin-off of the Heller and Monlin empires.
"The old general was able to choose to cooperate with me, not because he wanted to betray the interests of the Monlin Empire, he was just a kind of resistance to Heller giving up himself!"
"The old general is dedicated to the public, but Zuihou ends up with a rabbit and a dead dog! This shows that Heller is ruthless at the same time, and more interprets his incompetence!"
"But it is based on these reasons that the old general is unwilling to leave this land to which he has been loyal all his life, he wants to stay, even if it is death, he wants to stay, he has already looked down on life and death, he wants to use his death to make a silent cry, shouting out the injustice of Heller to him!"
"What should I do if my father leaves?" asked Gavin, almost unconsciously.
At this moment, Li Zijun suddenly had a little more ambition in his heart, he felt that maybe only if he became the one who guided the country, would he reduce the appearance of such a tragedy as Yuer, and there was more wild desire in his eyes from now on!
"The Monlin Empire doesn't have any chance in the hands of people like Heller, and the eldest prince and eldest princess have no personal feelings, what do you think they can do better than Heller?"
"No, nothing! One of them is weak and incompetent, the other is ambitious and talented, and no matter which of them inherits the great cause of the future Monlin Empire, the future of Monlin will not be better than the present. If I'm not wrong, it's only worse!"
"You are the hope for the future of the Monlin Empire, and I believe this is also the reason why the old general asked you to leave here temporarily. He doesn't want you to be a traitor to Monlin, he wants you to change the fate of Monlin!"
Li Zijun feels that he is becoming more and more like a politician, and the level of gibberish seems to have improved a lot. But no matter what, Gavin's eyes have flashed with light, and he has finally overcome his inner demons, and he is no longer the lifeless appearance he was just now!
Li Zijun patted Gavin on the shoulder fiercely, like all powerful superiors, Gavin nodded, and walked out of the room with strong steps.
Looking at the back of Gavin leaving, Li Zijun was ambitious, he was ready to meet all challenges, but at this moment, he suddenly heard a cough behind him.
This cough was very close to Li Zijun, and he was startled, and immediately turned around and acted on guard. Seeing that the person behind him was Camilla, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Grandma, why are you here?" It was Catherine who accompanied Li Zijun today, and this is why Li Zijun asked at this moment.
"Some people don't seem to want me to visit the palace, find someone to talk to me in advance!" Camila said, casting her eyes on Li Zijun's back. Li Zijun immediately noticed the abnormality, he pretended to be casual and took two steps towards Camilla, and then slowly turned around, and then a strong man with a foot of two meters appeared in his sight.
"Lynn?" Li Zijun really couldn't figure out how such a crude figure could carve such a detailed pavilion! But in the Menglin Empire, apart from Lynn, Li Zijun couldn't think of anyone else who could appear by his side silently, so he turned his head and asked Camilla in a low voice.
"It's probably called 'Don't be a man!'" Camila said with a chuckle as she stepped forward.
"Edlaide really deserves its reputation! A father and son who eat inside and outside have become heroes of the Menglin Empire in your mouth, and I have to admire your eloquence as a kid!" In Li Zijun's eyes, Lynn was simply a giant bear that could walk upright, and his ears buzzed when he tried to speak.
"If Heller hadn't abandoned them, how would they have chosen to cooperate with me? This is the simplest rule of survival, don't you do it?" Li Zijun saw Lynn appear in the direction Gavin left, he was worried about Gavin's safety, and looked back at Camilla with a frown.
"Yule and Gavin are like ants in Master Lynn's eyes, he wouldn't do anything for such a little person!" Camila said as she smiled at Li Zijun, seeing Camilla's expression, Li Zijun finally relaxed a little.
"Camilla, you don't have to talk to me, I wasn't interested in their messy things in the first place, and nothing will change today!"
"My only purpose in appearing here was to find you and settle our undivided battle!
"What do you want to do?" Camila couldn't help but get a little nervous when she heard Lynn say this, and she reached out and pulled Li Zijun behind her.
"You don't have to be so nervous, I'm not at the point of using your juniors to threaten you, I just want to make a bet with you, how about it, do you have the guts?"
"What do you want to bet on?"
With a "whew", an extra sword appeared in Lynn's hand, and he casually threw it at Camilla.
The sword shot like lightning towards Camila's chest, but Camila only smiled faintly and didn't make any moves.
Li Zijun didn't know that Camilla Weishenme would behave like this, and he was about to step forward to block Camilla, but was pressed in place by Camilla.
Li Zijun wanted to make any more moves, it was too late in time, his fear had reached the limit, staring directly at the sword, his hands trembling slightly uncontrollably.
But just when the sword was still half a meter away from Camilla, it suddenly turned a ninety degree bend against common sense, fell lightly to the ground, and stood upright in front of Camilla!
