Dayan Kingdom, a super country located in the eastern part of the mainland, is different from its neighbor Ursus, which is also a superpower. Its territory is not as vast as Ursus, and its soldiers are not as brave as Ursus, but its wealth is that of Ursus. No matter how hard Si tried his best, he couldn't compare to it.
In this country, you can even see people infected with Originium Disease walking on the streets and living like normal people.
Of course, the premise is that the infection symptoms of those infected are not serious and there is no record of committing any crime.
In the imperial city, the capital of the Yan Kingdom, the emperor of the Yan Kingdom was sitting in a high position, listening to the officials next to him reporting on the government affairs reported in various places.
"Your Majesty, the situation in Inner Wuzhou City is quite stable, and there are consuls from all sides guarding Outer City City, so there is no need to worry too much."
The internal official leaned down slightly, and after finishing all the important government affairs for today, he said to the middle-aged man in the high position.
The other party looks somewhat similar to Wei Yanwu, with dragon horns and a furry animal face. This is an atavistic appearance that only the royal family of the Yan Kingdom with pure dragon blood can have.
"Um."
The man in the high position responded lightly and suddenly asked the other party: "How are the negotiations between Qilu and Ursus going? Is there any new progress?"
"Your Majesty, Lord Qilu is still in a stalemate. The Ursus Empire is not letting up. The cooperation between Longmen and Ursus has brought great benefits. It is just opening up the supply of some important materials. It is difficult for Ursus to let go. Saas promised to give up..."
At this point, the internal officer stopped and kept his words to himself and did not say any more.
"Wei Yanwu, Wei Yanwu, you are really a person who makes me uneasy. Why don't you just live your life of glory and wealth as a courtier in an independent city on the border?
You said, now that the situation has come to an end, why does the other party, who has no heirs, come to rebel against me? "
The internal officials did not dare to speak to His Majesty the Emperor's words. He just lowered his head, like a wooden man standing aside, like a deaf person who cannot hear any sound.
"Since it is a matter of interests, then you can send me a message to Qilu. The most I can do is allow him to sacrifice the interests of the Northern Three States as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Ursus."
The internal officer was stunned for a moment and wanted to say something, but seemed to be thinking of his own identity, so he did not say any words of advice.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The internal officer agreed, then backed away to do his work.
. . . .
"Our Emperor dares to give the interests of the three northern states!"
"Master Qi, please watch your words."
The Imperial Guards of Yan State, who were responsible for protecting the personal safety of the members of the envoy and were dressed in black and wearing bamboo hats, had no choice but to remind them.
"Originally, the conditions proposed by the Medical Research Institute in Ursus were very favorable and would benefit the country and the people. However, because of his own personal feelings, His Majesty made an unwise decision and regarded this matter as Political bargaining chips have now put the interests of Beisanzhou on the negotiation table, so I can make some complaints here, isn't that okay?"
The old goat man stared at the black-clothed guard and asked.
"I am the imperial guard of the Yan Kingdom."
The black-clothed guard said.
"Then tell the master behind you exactly what I said later. The Yan Kingdom has been open to public opinion since the time of the True Dragon Emperor.
If Wei Xianming doesn't want to hear what he doesn't like, I can resign immediately and go home to live in retirement. And if that's not enough, and he wants to convict me for his words, I can also go to jail to accept his injustice. punishment..."
"Mr. Qi, Mr. Qi, there is no need to be like this. You were once His Majesty's tutor..."
When the people around heard this, they quickly stood up and started to persuade.
But the guard in black next to him was still sprayed bloody by the old man.
But it was just one sentence, and I no longer dared to say more.
"Okay, help me contact the emperor of Ursus. It's time for us to give a new price."
The old goat said this after he finished venting.
Although he was rude to His Majesty the Emperor, he was the strongest supporter of the current emperor of Yan Kingdom.
"Also, don't let the spies below stop and continue to fan the flames and create opposition.
Let the ordinary people who are infected in Ursus know that the northern government, which has the special medicine to suppress Originium Disease, is unwilling to let go and reap the opportunity to manufacture cheap special medicine for the sake of an outsider who is not from its own country..."
The old goat's eyes were a little gloomy. Rather than Emperor Yan's worry about Wei Yanwu seizing the throne, the old minister was more concerned about some ideas that were gradually emerging among the people at the bottom of Ursus.
[The rights and obligations of rulers, the rights and obligations of working people...]
Those are some dangerous ideas. As a figure from the perspective of the feudal dynasty, Qi Lu feels that those northern Ursus political groups who master red ideas are the more threatening existence to the Yan Kingdom in the future.
That could change the political structure of the Yan Kingdom, which could cause a disaster even more serious than seizing the throne.
But fortunately, that regime has a weakness, that is, it cares too much about the conditions of the people at the bottom, and the people at the bottom are mostly ignorant people. Those people are short-sighted and can easily be exploited, and they can counterattack.
As far as the current situation is concerned, whoever cares more about the infected people at the bottom will be at a disadvantage at the negotiation table.
Although this method is a bit despicable, and even I feel a little shameful, but who calls this politics.
He, Qi Lu, is a qualified politician and a shrewd diplomatic negotiator.
. . . .
"The Yan Kingdom is willing to open up the cities on its northern border and establish a closer commercial and trade cooperation relationship with the Ursus Empire?"
"Yes, I wonder what your Majesty Fyodor thinks?"
"Of course I agree with things that are beneficial to the country, but I have to discuss it with the ministers as to whether we can reach a specific consensus with your Majesty. Please allow me to think about it for a while before giving an answer."
"Waiting for your good news."
After the communication ended, Emperor Feodor of Ursus sat on his throne, habitually tapping the armrest with his left index finger when thinking.
"If Yanguo fully opens the trade channels of border cities to Ursus, the value it will bring will far exceed the value that Longmen can provide to Ursus now."
Fyodor said suddenly.
"But the premise is that Emperor Yan can keep his promise."
Speaker Witte, who was standing nearby and listened to the communication, opened his mouth and said.
"I know that there is no such thing as a commitment between countries, there is only a naked interest relationship, and I cannot believe that kind of empty guarantee.
Even if the emperor of the Yan Kingdom put that kind of guarantee on paper, after all, promises like that are meant to be torn up. "
"But Your Majesty, you can't be too decisive and refuse the proposal from the Yan Kingdom. Nowadays, the Northern Regime Group has a huge influence on the people of the country.
Some of their thoughts are too hostile to the original aristocratic class, and even have a certain impact on your Majesty's rights. "
Speaker Witte represents the aristocratic class, and his relationship with some congressmen who are from common people in the north can be said to be very bad.
"I understand, but it is impossible for me to abandon the northern people of Ursus."
This is a beautiful saying.
The real reason is the northern regime, which is also the power group that supports him as the emperor.
Feodor's current real power is inseparable from the support of the northern regime.
But therefore, Fyodor also allowed his imperial power to be restricted by the civil rights represented by the northern regime.
The Ursus emperor knew very well that in his external stance, he must stand with the northern regime.
However, in terms of internal stance, he must lean towards the aristocratic regime represented by Speaker Witte.
The biggest reason for this situation is undoubtedly the imbalance of power controlled by different regimes.
Although the Northern Territory regime is a relatively moderate party, it has not experienced the previous internal strife of power and the murder of politicians with different opinions.
However, the military power controlled by the northern regime has exceeded the bottom line that he, the emperor, can tolerate.
Today, most of the troops in the Ursus Empire are, directly or indirectly, in the hands of the northern political group.
The person who constituted this situation has to be mentioned, that is, after Bodrokas retired and Wu Ke left the world of Terra, he was the leader of the military force that took over the northern regime - the wolf-eared Xiboril. .
The other party, who was born in the Lupo tribe, knew the importance of mastering power. When the entire Ursus force was reshuffled six years ago, he teamed up with Tallulah to create a combination of military and political fists, and took advantage of the situation to win over Ursus. He expanded the influence of the northern regime among Sri Lanka's other armies.
It’s hard to say, but it was because the northern regime had mastered military power that Fyodor, who held the imperial power, became wary and wanted to suppress the balance.
It was the northern regime that anticipated the current restlessness of Emperor Ursus, so it took control of the army in advance, so that the Emperor of Ursus lost the ability to put bad ideas into action.
In short, this is how Feodor, the Emperor of Ursus, now leans towards the aristocratic regime in his heart, but has to rely on the northern regime.
Speaker Witte knew this, but he knew more about the true thoughts of His Majesty the Emperor, so he said: "Your Majesty, I don't want you to abandon the people in the north, I just want you to bring out the truth and make the country of Yan better." Tell the conditions.
You don't need to hurt your feelings with the northern government, you just need to reveal to the lower-class people there and the country that Yan Guo has given better conditions.
As far as I know, Talulah, the former political representative of the Northern Regime, has a blood relationship with Wei Yanwu, the supreme governor of Longmen. We may be able to do something about this to separate the hearts and minds of the Northern Regime. At the same time, it can also put a certain amount of pressure on the northern regime group as a whole..."
Chancellor Witte gave effective suggestions, and Emperor Ursus nodded repeatedly. He felt that the emperor's rights should be freer. He should not be controlled by Cosiche before, but now he does not need to be controlled by the Northern Territory who supports him. The coercion of the political power.
"Your idea is a good one, but it's a pity that Queen Theresa of Cazdale is in power on Victoria's side, and the other party is on good terms with the northern government."
Listening to these words, Speaker Witte next to him also had a toothache. The patron saint suddenly appeared from the northern border of Ursus. However, when solving their internal problems in Ursus, he also solved Kazdel in the meantime. The problem.
However, this situation where unrelated interests intersect and naturally become allies just because they are helped by the same being is very helpless.
Even if there are still some enemies of Drak's blood on Victoria's side, facing Queen Kazdel, who is now in great power and controls the super-powerful Sarkaz Corps, there is a high probability that she can only shrink her head. turtle.
It is simply impossible to emerge and specifically cross the border to deal with the northern Ursus regime forces with the remnants of Drak's blood.
. . . .
Nowadays, regarding the newly developed special medicine for Originium Disease and the large-volume procurement of some raw materials unique to the Yan Kingdom, it seems that the price cannot be negotiated on the surface, but in fact it is the contradiction between the four major forces behind it. , thus playing an invisible game.
Emperor Yan wants to eliminate the threat of Longmen Wei Yanwu to seize the throne. Emperor Ursus wants to get rid of the influence of the Northern Territory regime. Longmen Wei Yanwu is determined to settle old scores and settle things in the past. From the perspective of a low-level infected person, conducting commercial espionage operations...
And if it is more detailed, it can even involve more grievances and conflicts of interest between forces. For this reason, people and ghosts are all ready to show off in this matter to achieve the goal of meeting the interest groups they represent. the goal of.
Only Wu Ke, who had come out of Wenrou Township and spent the whole morning reading all the intelligence files, was ready to make a simple and crude push.
"First get the raw materials to cultivate technology, then capture the current emperor of the Yan Kingdom, and then call Feodor over. Let's gather all the people involved in the raw material procurement game in your uncle's Longmen City. Right there Figure out all the grudges, and finally figure out what happened to your mother."
After a pause, Wu Ke asked the beautiful person behind him: "Tallulah, do you think my plan is okay?"
"Others may not be able to do it, but you should be able to do it. As I know you, you are very strong. I think that you who are stronger now should be able to fight against a country.
However, I don't want you to do this, because there may be some dangers in it. The Great Yan Kingdom can be said to be the only country that has a record of killing gods. "
"Kill the gods?"
“I don’t know if it’s true or not, but that’s what is written in Yanguo’s history books.
Once upon a time, a certain True Dragon Emperor led the Yan Kingdom's army to hunt down and expel the divine beings who dared to go against their own will and do evil to the Yan Kingdom's people within the territory of the country..."
Tallulah put her arms around Wu Ke's neck and breathed softly into his ear.
Hearing this, Wu Ke was a little shocked.
Following the war between gods, there was also a war between humans and gods on land?
