Longling Kingdom, Parliament Hall.
This should be the first time that the leader of the Dragon Guard Army, Lord Protector Long Yandao, brought some Dragon Guard generals to attend the parliament to discuss how to allocate resources.
A total of more than 300 people came to the hall.
Among them, the smallest title is Viscount of Longling Kingdom.
Lin Chen was naturally among them.
However, what Lin Chen was wearing today was the clothes of the deputy commander of the Dragon Guard Army.
Yes!
Lin Chen was promoted.
Directly promoted to deputy commander.
Originally, this should be a position that only people of Xiong Nater's level could hold.
However, Xiongnatl did not go to the imperial battlefield.
Even last time, Long Yandao felt something was wrong and asked someone to call him, but Xiong Nater refused because he wanted to go to Lingnan to inspect military affairs.
As a result, in the final battle outside the divine city, it was Alikis who hurriedly came to help Long Yandao deal with Jing Qicang's blow.
Although Long Yandao didn't say anything about this, when he saw Xiong Nater, Long Yandao didn't even look at him.
The position of deputy commander of the Dragon Guard Army was also directly given to Lin Chen.
Xiong Natel's face was very ugly.
The atmosphere in the parliament hall was also slightly depressing.
First, Long Yandao came.
Moreover, it also brought many rewards to the Dragon Guard Army.
Harriet, Pangjia, Big Hade, Little Hade, Jin Mu, Jiang Haihe...all are listed.
Jian Nishang is here.
However, she was standing next to Lin Chen.
In addition, there are also some guards from Long Yandao, arranged on the left and right.
This should be the first time that the Longling Kingdom's parliament has been convened under the eyes of so many soldiers.
However, Shun Guo Gong Long Yanhui didn't speak, and the nobles naturally couldn't object.
Parliament begins.
Long Yanhui, the chief, began to speak: "First of all, this time our Longling Kingdom..."
As soon as he stood up, Long Yandao interrupted him and said: "Let's get straight to the point. I have spread my divine power all over Longling Country, and now it's a question of the distribution of the soul mineral veins. Now, I want to hear what the council is saying. How do you plan to distribute it!”
Long Yandao really didn’t give him any face at all!
Long Yanhui and Long Yandao are both from the same generation.
The two are still cousins.
However, it has long been a friendship of just nodding when we meet.
Long Yanhui gritted his teeth and said: "Since the founding of Longling Country, our ancestors established a parliament in order to protect the merits of conquering the world with him and their descendants. This means that the royal family shares the world with these nobles... As early as During the Ancestors’ time, the rules were set: for everything that belongs to the Longling Kingdom, the royal family will get 40%, the nobles will get 40%, and the people of the world will get 20%.”
"What do you mean, where are our Dragon Guard Army?"
At this time, Jiang Haihe spoke.
Yes, it’s him!
Blue Star people.
Guess, why is Jiang Haihe here?
Moreover, it was Long Yandao who asked him to come in as the commander-in-chief of Long Shengjun.
Yes, after Lin Chen was promoted to deputy head coach of the Dragon Guard Army, he completely handed over Long Shengjun to Jiang Haihe.
What Jiang Haihe said now was what Long Yandao asked him to say.
In the past, Long Yandao only focused on the battlefield and did not distribute the benefits. That was because the cake was so big that he couldn't divide it, and he was too lazy to divide it. Anyway, the military expenses were sufficient.
But this time, the cake was too big.
If a mineral vein as large as the entire Imperial Capital City were separated, a hundred veins could be separated, which are equivalent to the soul mineral veins that stretch over eighteen mountain ranges outside Tianyue City.
Why was it that the rich reward, but the Dragon Guard Army that had worked so hard to get it, didn't get a single point?
Where is Lin Chen?
Didn't he either?
The reward for the first settlement in the imperial battlefield is at least double that of the first-level battlefield.
Pay attention, at least!
In other words, there may be more than one.
But how is it calculated?
Of course it’s based on points!
This time, Long Lingguo was able to obtain such a large soul vein because Lin Chen scored 1,500 points alone.
Unprecedented!
As a result, when it came time to divide the cake, Lin Chen didn't have any of it?
Long Yandao asked Jiang Haihe to come in because he was actually looking for someone to say this.
"Isn't this person a traitor? Lord Protector, should you let him out?" Long Yanhui said with a cold face.
Hearing his words, Long Yandao sneered.
Sure enough, this is still the case.
In the eyes of these nobles, there will always be only vested interests.
They always only care about themselves.
Why do you say this way?
Long Yanhui's opinions alone cannot represent all nobles!
Of course Long Yandao knew the truth behind this.
Before Parliament began, the nobles gathered together for a meeting.
It's impossible not to discuss it.
This time, with such a generous reward, how could the nobles not make up their mind?
Dogs can never change their habit of eating shit!
"This man is now the commander-in-chief of the Dragon Sheng Army under the Imperial Battlefield Dragon Guard Army. He was recommended by Deputy Commander Lin Chen and fully guaranteed. Lin Chen was promoted to deputy commander of the Dragon Guard Army with military merit. You can ask these people, which one Do you have any opinions?" Long Yandao said calmly.
"Without Deputy Commander Lin Chen, how could he be number one in Longling Kingdom?"
Little Harder was the first to speak.
Then, all the officers and soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army all echoed: "This time Longling Kingdom can take the first place, and Deputy Commander Lin Chen deserves the most credit!"
"you!"
Long Yanhui said coldly: "This is the parliament, where do you have the right to speak?"
"Ha ha!"
At this time, Lin Chen stood up. He faced Long Yanhui and asked: "These people are all soldiers and generals who fought for Longling Kingdom on the imperial battlefield. Without them, not to mention the cultivation resources, even The entire Longling Kingdom and even the human race may be wiped out! And now, you actually say that they are not qualified to speak at the meeting to distribute the spoils? "
"Your Majesty, the spoils of war are distributed by the parliament. This is a rule set by our ancestors! What are the Dragon Guards doing now? Are they going to mutiny? Could it be said that they are going to rebel?"
Long Yanhui saw that Lin Chen had stood up, and his voice was sonorous and powerful. With the many officers and soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army, he would definitely not be able to suppress it by himself, but Long Yanhui's eyes were also very fierce.
When he was on the imperial battlefield, he saw Lin Chen enjoying himself like a fish in water, and saw Long Yandao being awarded the title of first-class marshal of the empire on the spot. Long Yanhui was already very dissatisfied!
Ever since he inherited the dukedom of Shun Kingdom, Long Yanhui has been close to the nobles, and he has successfully controlled the parliament... It can be said that he has controlled almost all the nobles in Longling Kingdom!
This is a very huge force.
First of all, with the annexation of land and resources, the nobles have controlled about 40% of the country's cultivation resources since the founding of the country, and now control more than 60% of the land and cultivation resources.
In addition, more than 80% of the casual cultivators in Longling Kingdom have to adhere to these rules in order to have the resources to practice.
What a huge force this is?
Therefore, even though the Dragon Guard Army had just won a great victory and their morale was at a high level, back in Longling Kingdom, Long Yanhui, the Duke of Shun Kingdom, still dared to call the nobles together and then suppress their interests!
After all, the benefits this time are too huge!
Even a 10% reduction would be a huge loss to the noble camp.
In fact, Long Yandao had already expected such a situation.
After all, this is the urine of nobles.
He even discussed it with Lin Chen... However, when Long Yandao and Lin Chen discussed this matter, there was another person beside him.
But this person is not the king of Longling Kingdom.
In Long Yandao's view, although the king currently sitting on the throne seems to want to work hard and even want to take back the land from the nobles, this is actually a very selfish behavior.
A very simple truth... Your king really wants to change the phenomenon of Longling Kingdom being gradually cannibalized by the nobles, then why don't you directly ask for help from the Dragon Guard Army?
Will Long Yandao not support him?
However, Long Yandao has never been questioned by the king.
What did the king do?
He went to dig into the corner of Longyan Road and poached some capable people from the Dragon Guard Army. Xiang Jinqiang was one of them.
Then, let Jin Gunquan cause trouble in the local area and seize the land of the nobles...
Why did the king do this?
Very simple!
Because he doesn't want to reform.
He just wants to be rich!
So he just needs to grab the land and grab the mineral veins.
As for the current chaotic situation in the country, he has nothing to do.
So Long Yandao also saw through him.
So who did Long Yandao come to discuss with Lin Chen?
Long Qingyue!
The eldest princess of Longling Kingdom.
It was also at that time that Lin Chen learned that Long Yandao and Long Qingyue had such a relationship...an alliance of interests.
really.
Long Qingyue has always been responsible for supplying the military expenses of the Dragon Guard Army. She and Long Yandao must have had many opportunities to deal with each other. It must be natural for the two of them to become an alliance of interests.
At that time, Parliament had not yet begun.
The nobles met together.
The king is also discussing with some people.
As for Long Yandao and Long Qingyue, they naturally invited Lin Chen to join them, and the three of them had a meeting together.
At that time, Long Yandao and Long Qingyue were only discussing how to unite to win some benefits for the Dragon Guard Army from the nobles and royal family.
The two of them even discussed for a long time how much they could take.
Until Lin Chen said: "Elder Princess, Lord Protector, if the Dragon Guard Army needs you to plan like this every time in the future to gain benefits, I think we will not be able to go far even if we reach the third level battlefield! Maybe, There is still the risk of destroying the country. On the third-level battlefield, I heard that among the Angel Clan alone, there are several powerful nations such as Bright Angel, Dark Angel, Holy Angel and Fallen Angel, and each country is no weaker than the Fairy Clan!"
Indeed it is.
Every opponent on the third-level battlefield is much stronger than the second-level battlefield!
But, what can be done?
Who makes kings and nobles so selfish?
The Dragon Guard Army has won the benefits by themselves, but due to the stipulations of their ancestors, they can only find ways to fight for it on their own.
Win it from the hands of kings and nobles!
Seeing that Long Yandao and Long Qingyue were both silent, Lin Chen sneered: "You two, don't you think it's ridiculous? These rewards were all won by the Dragon Guard Army. The commander of the battlefield is the Lord Protector. I am the MVP! And now, I even have to kneel down and beg them to give me some rewards. What’s the point of this?”
At this time, Long Yandao finally understood the meaning of Lin Chen's words. He said in a low voice: "Lin Chen, what do you want?"
"Are we, Deputy Commander Lin, planning a military coup?"
Long Qingyue looked at Lin Chen and asked meaningfully.
Lin Chen did mean this.
He originally thought that Long Yandao would at least support him.
But Long Yandao said coldly: "No! In Longling Kingdom, the surname must be Long! Lin Chen, no matter what, I, Long Yandao, will always be a member of the Long family. Do you want me to go against my ancestors?"
Long Yandao is a very principled person.
Although, he is a pretender and likes to pretend.
But above all righteousness, he will never owe anything!
Hearing his words, Lin Chen fell into silence for a while.
But at this time, a man walked in.
Lin Chen still knew him.
"Mr. Winter?" Lin Chen greeted.
Long Yandao frowned, with a strong murderous intent in his eyes, and asked: "Why did you come in... what did you hear?"
"Lord Protector, please be patient!"
Winter smiled slightly and said immediately: "I will not spread what happened today. In fact... I asked the eldest princess to let me eavesdrop. Moreover, I think what City Lord Lin said is not necessarily wrong!"
"What do you mean?"
Long Yandao frowned and said coldly: "Why, are you all going to rebel?"
"No!"
Winter said quickly: "Don't get me wrong, Lord Protector. I just think that the king needs to be changed. The entire system of Longling Kingdom also needs to be changed! You have also seen that the aristocracy cannot rule for Longling Kingdom." Bringing any benefits...If that’s the case, why not replace them all?”
"Haha, replace...who are you going to replace as the king? In the royal family, the princes are still young...if you want me to be the king, forget it, I can't be the king, and I don't want to be!" Long Yan said He seemed to understand what Winter meant.
What he was thinking about was that Winter was going to make him king.
Long Yandao naturally refused.
He belongs to the imperial battlefield!
Being a king... is so tiring.
So Long Yandao scolded: "Come on! If you want to be a king, you must be a direct bloodline of the royal family."
But Winter smiled and said: "Why can't Her Royal Highness be the eldest princess?"
"The eldest princess..."
Long Yandao was stunned.
Winter continued: "In the Ice Kingdom, there is the Queen of the Night; in the Fairy Kingdom, there used to be a princess... Then why can't our Dragon Spirit Kingdom have a queen? The eldest princess is not married, and her bloodline is... Pure, can’t she be the queen?”
"Yes, why not the eldest princess?" Long Yandao looked suddenly enlightened.
Long Qingyue!
This is his staunch ally.
Moreover, Long Qingyue is not just a vase. She has taken care of all the royal family's finances for so many years, and her methods are infinitely better than the current king!
The most important point... Long Qingyue is also opposed to the aristocracy being in power!
"It seems like it can really be done!"
Long Yandao relented, but then he asked: "Princess, what do you think?"
"I..." Long Qingyue was a little panicked, but she quickly calmed down and glanced at Long Yandao and Lin Chen, as well as the loyal servant Winter who wanted to push her to the top. Long Qingyue couldn't help but Asked: "What about my brother?"
Her brother is the current king.
"The king must die and the nobles must be eliminated!" Winter said.
This businessman showed his fangs as a counselor for the first time...
The line that was laid before has been closed.
Winter...
Do you still remember that he once said in Tianyue City that he hoped to push Long Qingyue to ascend to power?
Fourth update today!
In fact, I haven't finished writing this chapter. It should be a big chapter of 8,000 words. I can't help it because I'm afraid everyone will be impatient, so let's do it!
Even the flashback technique failed to bring it back... Only the next chapter can bring it back to the parliament.
(End of chapter)
