Chapter 1232: Communicating with each other
Feroni searched around and didn't find anyone else, so his confidence was inevitably a little lacking. Therefore, when he heard Wang Luochen say this, in order to prevent arousing Wende's anger, he hurriedly softened his tone a little and said, "Your Highness is right, everything can be solved through communication. Don't get excited, just sit down and talk slowly. ”
Seeing that Feroni didn't reprimand him anymore, Wende hurriedly found a step down and said to Wang Luochen and Feroni: "Because it is related to the interests of the family, as the head of the family, I was indeed a little impatient just now. Maybe the tone is not right for a while, and I ask Your Highness and Your Excellency not to blame. You're both right, anything can be solved through communication. Our Lorni family is in business itself, so naturally we understand this truth better. Therefore, I would like to express my attitude that our family is willing to maintain communication with the royal family and resolve our differences through negotiations. ”
"That's right. It's nothing more than a matter of interests, and it's not a matter of life and death, so what should we not talk about? Your Majesty and I have no intention of purging you or anything. All we ask is for you to break into pieces and leave the Blood Capital. Of course, it would be unfair to you to ask you to leave your homeland and the places you are familiar with, but we have to do it for the sake of the long-term peace and stability of the blood capital. To this end, we have put in place a set of measures to compensate you for the losses you have suffered as a result of the relocation of the blood. These rules will soon be sent to you by the relevant authorities, and if you have any comments on this, you can do so directly to me or explain them to me through the relevant personnel. I'll do my best to accommodate your requests. But only if you agree in principle to do what the royal family wants. What do you think?"
Wang Luochen saw that Wende was willing to communicate, so he smiled and briefly explained to them the content of yesterday's plan.
After hearing this, Wende groaned for a while and said, "So, Your Highness only wants to weaken our power by doing this, and has no intention of killing us all, right?"
"Ming people don't talk darkly, everyone is smart, that's what I mean. To be honest, I think you yourself should be able to feel that you big families are too conspicuous in blood, aren't they?" Wang Luochen said unabashedly.
"As you said, we do have some forces and some resources. However, Your Highness, we have no second thoughts about the royal family. Why do you have to drive us away?" asked Wende, somewhat reluctantly.
"Your question, I answer in two words, is 'balance'. I want the whole blood to be under the rule of the king, and I don't want the existence of a power that affects the king's power. That's my answer. Of course, this sounds like a pretty unreasonable statement. This is because I am telling you the truth. The truth is often unlikeable. Sometimes it still feels very unreasonable. But if you think about it, you will feel that it is actually the most reasonable. Because, it reflects the most real and objective truth. Can you understand me when I say that?" Wang Luochen said his truest thoughts.
By doing this, he was telling them his bottom line, and he was also showing them that with such a bottom line, he didn't want them to bargain with him over the matter of moving away from the blood capital.
Hearing his words, Wende and the other family heads were all silent.
Obviously, they all understood Wang Luochen's words.
Their stay has always been a threat to the royal power. This threat does not mean that the number of words they say and the amount of loyalty they show can make it disappear.
For this threat to go away, they have to leave. It's their only option. The so-called negotiations can only be conducted under this premise.
But at the same time, they also knew that leaving the blood capital was equivalent to giving up the connections they had been operating for many years, losing the biggest stage of the blood clan, and losing the sweetest and tallest cake. Their family's income will never be as rich as it used to be.
If there is a change in the internal strife within the family at this time, their family is likely to decline in the future. Therefore, they were 10,000 unwilling in their hearts to Wang Luochen's request for them to move away from the blood capital.
Whether they are unwilling or not, they have already understood Wang Luochen's bottom line, and understand that even if they are unwilling, he will implement this policy. If they objected, they would inevitably be at odds with him and the royal family he represented.
But as the saying goes, the arm can't twist the thigh. It is naturally very unwise to use their power to oppose the royal family.
With so many thoughts in their minds, of course these people don't know what to say.
Wang Luochen saw that they were silent, and their faces were cloudy, and he knew that they must be thinking about how to answer themselves. He waited for a while and said, "Guys, have you thought about it, and if you do, please be the first to stand up and tell me what you think." Tell me if you're for or against. Of course, I welcome everyone to approve of it, and for the first one who agrees with my idea, I will give more benefits than other families. As for the first one to oppose, hehe, then think about the consequences yourself. ”
Hearing Wang Luochen's words, Carlos, the head of the Ganluo family, who was short but had a very strong physique, replied unhappily: "Your Highness, are you threatening us? I advise you not to forget that our five major families are not soft persimmons that anyone can pinch in blood. ”
"Master Carlos, I think you're right. Your five major families are indeed not soft persimmons in blood, and not everyone can pinch them. Except for me and Your Majesty. And that's why we're having this conversation today. Isn't it?" Ignoring the unhappiness on his face, Wang Luochen directly counterattacked.
"Your Highness, are you really going to pinch us? This is a bit deceitful, isn't it? Aren't you afraid that we will unite against it?" Carlos couldn't help but be a little angry when he heard that he didn't care about his attitude, and immediately said something even tougher.
"Alliance? Are you sure that people will join forces with you? I advise you that before you say this, it is best to communicate with them. Wang Luochen scoffed.
Laughed at by Wang Luochen, Carlos hurriedly turned his head and said to the rest of the family heads: "What do you say?
The rest of the family heads did not respond to his question. This embarrassed him. Therefore, he snorted angrily, pointed at the rest of the family heads, and said, "You are too cowardly, aren't you? What did you say when we had a meeting earlier? Why are you all silent at this point? What are you afraid of?"
"Hey, Carlos, don't talk nonsense. We didn't say anything during the meeting. Besides, didn't we know that His Royal Highness would compensate us at that time? Since the royal family would compensate us, I don't think we can't consider doing what the royal family asks. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the bearded old man of the Neil family immediately denied his statement and said something in favor of Wang Luochen.
