After Old Cowen left the palace, he said to Redotan earnestly, "I know you still have some concerns in your heart, but since you have decided to be loyal to Her Majesty, don't waver. If you try to please both sides, you will not please both sides. When Her Majesty was the lord of the Dark Moon, there were 2 major families in the Dark Moon. The Saiful Family, who had always followed her, was now the top family of the Dark Moon. The Mellon Family, who opposed her, first surrendered, then they wavered. As a result, they were suppressed to the end and finally disappeared. Now Her Majesty is obviously restricted. In this case, the earlier we stand on the side, the better, even if we become the enemy of all the elder families. As long as Her Majesty can fully control the capital, then the Toro Family's position will become more and more solid, and their interests will become greater and greater. Otherwise, there will be the danger of destruction. "
Redotan frowned, "Father, do you think Her Majesty can fully control the capital? Even Prince Obsidian can't … "
"So, now that Obsidian is dead, Her Majesty Jía is still alive, and she has been recognized by the Sword of Fallen Angel." Old Cowen said solemnly, "From the rise of the Dark Moon, it can be seen that although Her Majesty is young, her courage and means are far from comparable to Obsidian. I don't know why, I have a hunch that maybe Her Majesty Jía can really recreate the glory of the Lord of Midnight Sun and make the Fallen Angel Empire the top powerhouse. "
Redotan nodded. His father, Cowen, has always had a very accurate vision. This was the case when he married Obsidian back then. Now, he has a clear view of the new empress, Jía. He also attended the meeting during the day today. Jía's first proposal suffered a huge setback, but then she quietly transferred several representatives with the highest opposition to the front line to deal with the foreign enemy. This was an open conspiracy.
After pledging allegiance today, Jía personally confirmed that she wanted to reshuffle the capital's forces at this critical time. Then, behind the open conspiracy would be the ruthless means and conspiracy.
From this perspective, the timing of the Toro Family's choice of side was quite good. Providing timely help and adding icing on the cake were two different concepts. What's more, the fate of his wife and a pair of children was still in the hands of Her Majesty the Empress. Whether it was for public or private reasons, he must side with Jía.
"Understood, father. From now on, the Toro Family will follow Her Majesty Jía wholeheartedly. This is worth the gamble." Redotan nodded.
Imperial Palace Hall.
"The Toro Family will be a starting point. Our next plan must be carried out quickly." Chen Rui saw that Jía's purple eyes were a little absent-minded. Thinking of her previous emotional changes, he thought of something. "What are you thinking about? That little girl? "
Jía raised her eyes and looked at the mask. There was a hint of gentleness in her purple eyes. "I'm wondering if it's a good thing to keep a guy who can feel my heart by my side."
"If I didn't have this person by my side, it would be a pity." Chen Rui said cheekily, "Does that little girl remind you of your past self?"
Jía was silent for a moment. "Actually, I once had a younger brother. In order to protect him, my father concealed everything after he was born, but I still couldn't hide it from the people with ulterior motives. Shortly after Alice was born, my mother and brother died in an accident. Even Alice didn't know this secret. Later, my father died of grief and indignation. "
Chen Rui only knew that there was such a secret past. It turned out that Jía's father, Crown Prince Grimm, had been using Jía as a cover to secretly conceal and cultivate his son. He planned to be the true heir of the Dark Moon Estate and the desire to recapture the empire, but he was still discovered. The so-called "accident" should be man-made. The mastermind behind it should be Obsidian.
Under the pressure of General George and others, Obsidian couldn't directly attack Crown Prince Grimm and Jía. He could only control and suppress them, but the son born in secret was different- Since you keep it a secret, then I will destroy him secretly so that you can't say anything.
In a sense, the eldest daughter, Jía, was a "victim" to attract the enemy's attention. Therefore, when Old Cowen and Redotan thought of sacrificing the little girl, Ling, to save the baby boy, Jía's always hidden emotions showed a strange fluctuation. More murderous intent was born from this.
"I don't know if I will really kill this pair of children. In fact, I'm weaker than I thought." Jía sighed, "Sometimes, some kind of kindness will only bring more trouble in the future. An emperor must be ruthless."
"People have their own bottom line and persistence. It is because of this persistence that someone once said that I am 'stupid'. They said that the kind of boring kindness will only make me weaker and weaker, and I will never become a real powerhouse. My answer is that I can become stronger and fearless because of some weaknesses. Not only that, but I also do the same. I have persisted until today, and I will continue to be so persistent in the future. "
Jía's eyes were a little more hazy, "Fearless persistence …"
Chen Rui scratched his head, "I'm talking about myself. As for the emperor … I have heard of the emperor's technique and the way of the emperor, but I don't understand it very well. The emperor's technique should be a means of controlling and checking, manipulating people's hearts, manipulating power, and continuously consolidating the imperial power in the process of subordinates fighting with each other. The way of the emperor means that the emperor must judge the situation, make the best use of everything, make the best use of people, be broad-minded, and accept all kinds of things. He doesn't have to take care of everything personally, but he must achieve 'taking the impossible as the possible'. "
Jía's eyes flashed as she listened. Although she didn't understand some of the words, she understood the general meaning. It was the first time she heard such a detailed theory about the emperor. After thinking for a long time, she said, "You mean, with the way of the emperor as the foundation and the emperor's technique as the supplement, don't just focus on small details and ignore the overall situation? As long as the entire empire becomes stronger, the people will support, the army will serve, the officials and nobles will surrender, and those thieves will naturally be deterred and dare not act rashly. Then the emperor will truly have the will and supreme authority of the entire empire? "
"I didn't say that … but, you are right." Chen Rui sighed in his heart. This is the truth of "one's position determines one's brain." You don't have to think about politics if you are not in the position. The emperor's technique and the way of the emperor are just some theories copied from his memory. But in the ears of a real emperor like Jía, she can derive her own personal experience and understanding.
"A grand master shouldn't be an emperor, right?" A gentle smile appeared on Jía's face. The beauty of an iceberg melting made people's eyes light up. "I'm a little suspicious of you now."
Chen Rui replied with a straight face, "Actually, I'm a traveler from the 'Earth World.' What I told you is the knowledge I got from another world. This secret has been hidden in my heart for a long time, and it's much better to say it now."
A strange look flashed across Jía's face, "Is Earth another name for the surface world? Or should I call you His Royal Highness or His Majesty? "
Chen Rui shrugged, "It's not Arthur, it's Chen Rui. Chen Rui's Chen, Chen Rui's Rui. Also, just call me Your Royal Highness, Royal Highness. "
"So, Your Royal Highness." Jía said with a smile, "Can you answer a question for me? Who was the one who said that you were 'stupid' and made you answer that way? Is it a beautiful lady? Do I know her? Or … I don't know her? "
A drop of sweat slid down Chen Rui's face behind the mask. A woman's intuition is sometimes more terrifying than wisdom.
"I want to know too." Another voice also sounded in the hall. Chen Rui's back began to sweat. A certain Ms. Fake Natural Daze whom he found had been invisible and silent after releasing her magic power to frighten Old Cowen. When she heard this topic, she immediately joined in excitedly.
Jía nodded thoughtfully, "So … both Rolla and I can be excluded?"
"That tone shouldn't be like Athena and Kia." Beside Jía, Rolla's beautiful figure gradually became clear. Although the fairy Miss Long and the new Her Majesty Empress had little contact in the Dark Moon, and their relationship was average, when encountering a situation that might be related to a "foreign enemy", they coincidentally had a feeling of being united against a common enemy.
The fairy Miss Long added, "I remember that Athena said that there was a stupid man who had a woman in the Shadow Empire a long time ago."
Chen Rui burst into tears. Can your memory be any worse?
Jía looked suspicious, "Shadow Empire? This was an interesting piece of news. Could it be a big shot from the Shadow Empire? "
Chen Rui broke out in a cold sweat. Feeling the 4 scrutinizing eyes, he wanted to imitate the fairy Miss Long and pretend to be stupid, "What?"
"I will definitely tell you about this in the future." Chen Rui immediately shifted the target, "What we need to do now is to buy time. Rolla, you protect Jía. I will go back to the Dark Moon immediately and bring a group of people over. "
"Hmph!" Rolla answered him with a snort.
Jía nodded and said, "Rolla, we need to communicate more to see how many secrets this guy still has to hide, especially about some women we don't know. For example, I have heard a song called "The End of the World". Have you heard it? "
"The End of the World?" Rolla glanced at the guy who was already sweating profusely and shook her head, "I haven't heard of it. I have heard of a top magic called 'Judgment Day'. "
The fairy Miss Long deliberately emphasized the word "judgment", and the profusely sweaty man immediately evolved into the Genghis Khan man.
"Let's go and find a more pleasing place to talk." Jía ignored the Genghis Khan man. She took Rolla's hand and walked inside.
Chen Rui was dumbfounded as he watched the 2 women walk away intimately while holding hands. His first reaction was that he was caught in a trap of his own making. Her Majesty Jía applied the emperor's skill that she had just learned to his harem battlefield, attacking from afar and befriending close ones …
I'm afraid that the future crystal palace will not be peaceful. The male protagonist must always be prepared for the worst-case scenario of blood sacrifice.
This palace is too dangerous. Let's go back to … the Dark Moon.
Jía was too weak in the capital now. Even the guards were temporarily arranged by General George, so some of the imperial guards must be mobilized. Now the capital's intelligence agency also urgently needed the Dark Moon's people to master, and Isabella was the most suitable candidate. Skye and Tetenis had promised to come and help, so they should also leave as soon as possible. It was just that Rolla's Rainbow Valley's space teleportation was not unlimited. The number of people who could pass at one time could not be too many.
If Catherine was not hot-headed, the Shadow Empire would definitely send a new envoy to negotiate peace as soon as possible. There would definitely be demands, but it would never be as outrageous as what Lilith and Terdila proposed. Once the war ceased, Baroco and others who went out to support would also return to the capital. Therefore, Jía did not have much time left, so she must speed up the process.
