Chapter 2257 Poisonous as a Snake and Scorpion, Sinful!
Li Jiande's every wrinkle solidified and turned into a lump of cold and hard fossils. After a long silence, he said, "How dare you do this?"
"Look into my eyes, old man."
Li Linghai moved his face closer, his white and flawless skin was devoid of a trace of blood, but wisps of black air flowed faintly under the skin, and finally condensed into the depths of his eyes, causing two needlepoints to appear in the transparent ice-like eyes. The size of the black dot.
Emphatically, she repeated, "Look me in the eyes and tell me, why wouldn't I dare to do this?
"Don't forget, a month ago in the imperial capital, you just planned an 'empress attack incident', and you have already decided to eradicate me, the disobedient empress of the empire, but my power is far beyond your imagination. It didn't work out.
"Now, everyone is tearing their skins apart. My overall plan and all my strengths have been exposed. If I don't put all my eggs in one basket and fight hard, why don't I wash my neck and wait for death?"
"Even if you dare to do it"
Li Jiande said calmly, "Such a frenzied and inhumane move cannot get the support of all the reformers and soldiers. Without their support, your crazy plan will not succeed at all."
"I don't need the support of all officers and soldiers, at least for now, as long as a small number of backbones can absolutely obey me."
Li Linghai sneered, "Relying on this small group of backbones, we will first destroy Yushen Planet, kill hundreds of millions or billions of people, and completely break with the family.
"The rest of the officers and soldiers are chasing the remnants of the Guyu Fleet in the vast sea of stars in the Guyu Realm with their starships. There is no time to stop me. When they find out, they can only watch countless starry sky battle fortresses and orbital docks burn and fall to the ground. superior.
"When the destruction really happens and the raw rice is cooked, do these officers and soldiers who don't know the truth have any other choice but to follow me and fight to the end? Such a 'sinful crime' will never be forgiven and pardoned, even if You pat your chest and promise to pardon these officers and soldiers who don't know the truth, and they will never believe it.
"What's more, it's impossible for you to make such a pardon, right? Otherwise, how can you be worthy of the hundreds of millions or billions of innocent souls on the Yushen Planet, and how can you face the various hilltops of the families that have a lot of interests in the Yushen Planet?
"Therefore, destroying the Yushen planet will only strengthen our internal cohesion and my dominance over the reformist joint fleet, and carry out the strategy of destroying jade and stone to the end!"
Li Jiande took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the urge to cough, and said, "You also know that you are 'sinful'?"
"Of course my grandson knows."
Li Linghai smiled again, "But my grandson knows better, the truth of 'thief who steals the hook will be punished, and whoever steals the country will be the king', the so-called heinous crimes mean that there is no crime, not even a single sliver.
"What's more, one death is a hundred, the left and right are dead, and the crime is not heinous, what difference does it make?
"Of course, ancestor, you don't have to believe everything your grandson said, and attack the Grain Rain Realm now to see if you can save a few heavy industrial cities that have been painstakingly managed for hundreds of years before your grandson destroys the entire Yushen planet .
"However, even if Sun'er's strategy fails completely, in the worst case, Sun'er can at least lead the remnant soldiers and turn them into rogues, wandering and making noise in the hinterland of the Li family for several years. The Li family coveted him.
"This is not what my grandson wants, but if you insist on not listening to my grandson's heartfelt words, my grandson will have no choice but to go to the dark side!"
Looking at Li Linghai's smiling and charming eyes, Li Jiande was silent for a long time again, sighed a long time, and said slowly: "Good grandson, grandpa agrees with you, your father is indeed a pig, how did Wouldn't see your potential, and choose to send you into the palace to be some kind of princess, what a waste of money!
"If he can discover the ambition and strength hidden in the deepest part of your blood in time, and send you to me to cultivate you well, maybe I won't have to face the embarrassing situation of having no successors and no successors.
"A pig like your father can't die a hundred times!"
"It's not too late for the ancestors to discover it in person."
Li Linghai's face did not have the upper hand, and the unpredictable smile still shrouded the thrilling facial features, and said lightly, "The loss of the family is not too big now, and the reformists have not clearly targeted the four emperors. The Hou family is only aiming at the traitors in the imperial capital, as long as the ancestors are willing to listen carefully to the appeals of their grandsons and reformist fellow Taoists, the situation is still in our hands, in the hands of... the ancestors!"
"The demands of the reformers?"
Li Jiande said noncommittally, "What do you want?"
"It's very simple. I hope that the Li family, one of the four pillars of the empire, can hear the voices of the frontline soldiers and the low-level immortal cultivators in the outer world."
Li Linghai said calmly, "You can support our righteous act of 'respecting the emperor and rebelling against rebellion, and reforming with gods and martial arts', and join us in eradicating the traitors in the senate of the imperial capital, eradicating the cancer parasitic in the flesh and blood of the empire, and building a more beautiful and harmonious society." A mighty new empire!"
Li Jiande's small mung bean eyes rolled around: "Who is the traitor and who is the cancer?"
Li Linghai said in a loud voice: "Dare to overstep the royal family, and the Dongfang family, which calls itself the 'First Family', is a cancer of the empire and even human civilization!
"The elders of the Dongfang family and its vassal families are villains who have committed the most heinous crimes and should be punished by the nine clans!
"For the sake of the empire, for the sake of human civilization, the Dongfang family must be wiped out. We reformers with lofty ideals are gathered under such righteousness. No matter what the price is, we must kill the national traitors and save the empire!
"However, in the face of the Dongfang family's deep roots, wealth and strength, and strong military strength, our reformist power alone is far from enough. My ancestors, please call on the strength of the entire Li family and all vassal families to stand with us." This side, support us!"
Li Jiande didn't dwell on whether the Dongfang family was a "treacherous sycophant" or a "cancerous tumor", but said: "The reformists plus the strength of the Li family can cleanly and quickly solve the Dongfang family, not both sides. Form an embarrassing situation of stalemate, and even drag the empire into the quagmire of civil war?"
Li Linghai said calmly: "The reformists plus the Li family are enough to form an evenly matched balance of power with the Dongfang family. Naturally, it is not enough to completely defeat the Dongfang family with a thunderous force.
"However, if all three of the four major elector families unite together, together with the power of the reformers, it will be enough to destroy and wipe out thousands of troops, and eradicate this cancer in one fell swoop!"
Li Jiande laughed like a crow again, his eyes glowed with interest: "Good grandson, can you convince the other two families to come together to get chestnuts out of the fire?"
"I can't, but I believe my ancestors can."
Li Linghai smiled slightly, "Otherwise, why would I come to my ancestor with such great 'sincerity'?"
Li Jiande said, "What if I can't either?"
"The grandson can only die."
Li Linghai said quietly, "As the empress of a majestic human empire, it's not too much to use a few planets to be buried with her?"
Li Jiande coughed lightly, calculating calmly.
"Grandson absolutely believes in the old ancestor's means, and there must be a way to persuade the other two electors. Most importantly, the three major elector families have long had great dissatisfaction and grudges against the Dongfang family, but they lack a reason to fight. Cooperation It's just an opportunity."
Li Linghai said calmly, "The so-called politics is nothing more than a game of balance. The political ecology of the real human empire in the first five hundred years was a balance between the imperial power and the four major electors; Become the internal balance of the four major families.
"The four major elector families are just like the four legs of a table. Only the same height can ensure the long-term stability of the empire. Any one of the dominant families is equivalent to turning the table and not playing, and wants to reshuffle the cards.
"This was originally a tacit understanding between each other, and everyone has followed the rules for hundreds of years, but in the past one or two hundred years, the Dongfang family has pretended to be stupid, broke the rules, and swelled up wildly. Twice the power of any family.
"Grandson really wants to know what the Dongfang family wants to do with such a rapid expansion of power, and when will the expansion stop? Is it really going to replace the Wuying royal family, subvert the real human empire, and become the well-deserved ruler of the star sea? The 'First Family'?
"One day, what will happen to the Li family, and what will happen to the other two families? Once again, we will be "ministers of the dragon" and kneel down and kowtow to the Dongfang family again? Even if we really want to kneel down and kowtow, Do the Dongfang family have the guts to accept it frankly?"
Li Jiande seemed to be asleep, and even slightly closed his eyes.
But Li Linghai knew clearly that this old and cunning grandfather was listening, analyzing and thinking very seriously.
"Old Ancestor, don't think that your grandson is scaremongering. The principle of 'the strong will always be strong' is an undeniable truth in the cruel competition among cultivators. For the small and medium worlds on the periphery of the empire, the four major elector families are" The strong is always strong', but within the four major families, isn't the Dongfang family also 'the strong is always strong'? The expansion of the Dongfang family is getting faster and faster every day. If you don't want to stop it now, you will never be able to stop it. You can only watch them helplessly Swallow us mouthful!"
Li Linghai raised his voice, looking angry and indisputable, and gritted his teeth, "For the Li family, there is another more deadly hidden danger. The Li family may not be the weakest of the four major elector families, but it just happens to be in the embarrassment of being out of control. stage, now that the ancestor is still there, he can barely deal with the Dongfang family. If he doesn't seize the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow, one day the ancestor can't hold on anymore. Who else can represent the interests of the Li family against the prosperous Dongfang family? , Imperial Prime Minister Dongfang Bo?"
