Chapter 2291 Unambitious Queen!
Li Linghai showed a sneer of disdain, and said slowly: "Our Emperor Shenwu, at best, is a naive idealist; at worst, he is ambitious, self-willed, and indulges in his own fantasies. In the movie, he thought that the glorious victory of the Empire Strikes Back was really due to him, and that he could really restore the glory of the Black Star Emperor era, and make all the soldiers and nobles surrender under his feet.
"In short, this is a guy who has not accomplished enough and has more than failed, so even if it falls into the hands of Dongfang Wang, it doesn't matter."
Li Yao rolled his eyes and said, "Uh, no matter what, he is Her Royal Highness's...husband, and you have more than a dozen children."
A flash of loathing and hatred flashed across Li Linghai's face, and he said coldly: "You should know that being the wife of this pig is the thing I hate the most in my life, and if I follow my will, I would like to see him die with my own eyes.
"However, considering the overall situation that the human empire lasts for thousands of years, a nominal emperor is needed no matter what. As long as he does not commit stupid acts of self-destruction, after saving him, it is also my responsibility to continue to respect him as His Majesty." promise.
"Speaking of which, Li Yao, I think what you really want to ask is not Emperor Shenwu, but me? You want to know what kind of position I will be in after the mission of 'renovating the empire' is really completed. Is it going to be some kind of dictator, a 'generation queen' kind of thing, right?"
Li Yao smiled awkwardly, as a tacit consent.
Li Linghai snorted softly, and said indifferently: "I told you long ago that everything I do is to save the empire, not just to gain power for myself, even if one day I really control the supreme power, It will definitely do better than the four major electors.
"Our reformists have also discussed several sets of solutions to the political situation of the empire after the partial collapse of the four major elector families. One plan is to join at least 250 reformers among the 500 elders of the Senate Members, checks and balances old interest groups.
"However, the operation of this set of plans is too difficult, and it is very easy to trigger strong resistance from the old senators and intensify the contradictions completely. Therefore, there is another set of new plans, which divide the Senate into upper and lower chambers. The current Senate will become the upper and lower chambers. In the House of Representatives, the revered status and favorable treatment of all the elders remain unchanged, but there is another House of Commons with 3,000 members, and the elders of the House of Commons are selected by a wider interest group to represent the interests of the vast majority of people and control them. real power.
"These two plans, including other plans on how to divide, check and balance power, and form a truly just, clean, and efficient big government, have been circulated among the reformers for a long time. Everyone actively participated in the discussion and agreed with it. In any case, they all It is much better than the current oligopoly and powerful family rule of the four major elector families, do you think it is possible to have a cruel, tyrannical, life-and-death dictator based on such an idea?"
Li Yao's eyes rolled around and around, but he didn't speak.
"I can understand your concerns as a cultivator, but these concerns are all unfounded."
Li Linghai's tone was softer, as if he was talking, "Which two elements are most important in creating an iron-blooded dictator? The first is the army, the second is prestige, and these two The two elements are combined into one again, that is, countless powerful people should swear allegiance to me personally, and be loyal to me, Li Linghai.
"But is this the case now?
"In terms of the army, the Deep Sea Fleet is entirely under the command of General Dongfang Sheng. I never ask about the slightest details, let alone interfere with his personnel selection and promotion, not to mention the Thunder Fleet of General Lei Chenghu. The independence is so strong that it cannot be added. , can only be said to be my ally, not my subordinate.
"In terms of prestige, I have never thought of cultivating personality in the Reform Sect. No matter Dongfang Sheng, Yue Wushuang or Jin Yuyan, they did not worship or be loyal to me. They all have their own reasons for joining the Reform Sect. , and agree with the ideas of the reformers, everyone can come together.
"This is especially the case with you and General Lei Chenghu, tell the truth, do I have any 'prestige' in front of you?
"In short, I am the leader of the reformers, but I am by no means the only leader of the reformers. If I really want to become a dictator, as you say about the vulgar 'generation queen', I will not build the reformers at all. To become what it is today, it is even more necessary to firmly control the military power in your own hands, right?
"After all, no matter how powerful my individual combat power is, it is useless to face overwhelming starships and overwhelming troops.
"From the very beginning, I didn't do this. When the reformers swelled to today and fully possessed their own will, it was even more impossible for me to control military power and establish personal prestige, but these are not important. The leader of the empire is not important, as long as a stronger and eternal new empire can be created, that is enough!"
Under Li Linghai's impassioned enthusiasm, Li Yao was stunned for a long time but couldn't find too many loopholes, so he could only say: "It seems to be true."
"Then what are you worried about?"
Li Linghai smiled slightly, "Stop thinking about it, go get ready, believe me, what you are doing is maintaining the balance and stability in the center of the Star Sea, and more lives will be saved because of you!"
Li Linghai cut off the communication screen.
Leaving Li Yao alone in the thick and dark mist.
His worries got worse.
The bloody demon said in the back of his mind: "Have you noticed that Her Royal Highness's tone today is very gentle, and she is eager to defend herself, for fear that we may misunderstand her. The appearance is completely different from the first time I met her."
"Naturally discovered."
Li Yao said, "Anomaly is a monster, a person who has always been as cold as ice, suddenly becomes so gentle, it is definitely not a good phenomenon."
However, Li Yao and the bloody demon thought over and over again, but they couldn't figure out what the problem was.
What Li Linghai said is true, no matter what kind of conspiracy, ambitious plan, or crazy idea, in the final analysis, it depends on the army to implement it.
But Li Linghai did let go of all the military power, and even the deep sea fleet he had built was fully commanded by Dongfang Sheng, an "outsider", with extreme magnanimity and selflessness.
Li Yao had been in contact with Dongfang Sheng a few times, but he couldn't tell that this fleet commander of the God Transformation rank had any absolutely loyal admiration for Li Linghai personally.
Not to mention Lei Chenghu, if Li Linghai really changes, Lei Chenghu will be the first to stand up and kill her.
Including the political structure of the new empire in the ideals of the reformers, it is indeed much more advanced than the smoky rule of the four major elector families. Most members of the reformers are inspired by the idea to join the great cause of the "revolutionary empire". It was the word "innovation", not Li Linghai himself.
So, assuming that Li Linghai really has some kind of ambition, and there is a huge conspiracy operating behind the scenes, how can he realize it, so that hundreds of thousands of soldiers from hundreds of worlds in Xinghai will obey her? It's impossible!
Just relying on her strength at the peak of transformation, even at the stage of distraction, she is still lonely after all, and it is impossible to swallow the entire empire.
Li Yao couldn't think of the key to this, but what Long Yangjun said that day seemed very reasonable, and his head was about to explode.
He simply called Li Jialing in: "Come here, little brother, come here, brother Yao will help you check your body, how is your recent progress in cultivating the Emperor Flame Orb?"
At this moment, Li Jialing, although his head was still full of golden hair, had a faint layer of light golden flames at the ends of his hair, and his whole person's demeanor was fierce and gorgeous, really like a majestic golden lion.
However, in front of Li Yao, who was half master and half mentor, the golden lion was as docile as a little cat, obediently took out the small half of the Emperor Flame Bead fragment and spread it in the palm of his hand.
"Wow, so fast!"
Li Yao was taken aback. He saw that the fragments of the Emperor Flame Bead in Li Jialing's palm were dim, and there were pinprick-like holes on the surface that was originally smooth as a mirror. The texture was like ordinary rocks, faintly flowing inside. All his strength was dried up, no, it was sucked dry by Li Jialing!
Li Yao had a series of adventures for hundreds of years, reborn again and again, washed the marrow and cut the scriptures. His flesh and blood body has long been so tyrannical that it cannot be described in words. He thought his cultivation speed was fast enough, but he did not expect Li Jialing's cultivation speed to be so fast. Even better than him, in just one month, he swallowed up all the "kingdom and domineering aura" contained in the fragments of the Emperor Flame Bead!
Although Li Jialing's fragment is a little smaller than his fragment, but the efficiency of this cultivation is too...depressing!
"Come on, try your current skills."
Li Yao stretched out his hand towards Li Jialing, and the two held their palms tightly together.
"boom!"
Around the two of them, two equally pale golden flames rose up, forming crackling electric arcs all over their bodies. Thick veins also continuously bulged on their chests and arms, and the terrifying power in the deepest part of their cells was constantly flowing. Transfers to the palm of the hand.
After a while, the palms of both of them became crystal clear, and the muscle fibers, blood vessels, nerves and bones inside were all clear.
After another ten seconds, the palms of both of them turned bright white, like steel that was heated to the point of melting!
Until now, Li Jialing showed a painful expression on his face, he snorted, and wanted to let go.
But Li Yao didn't let go, the power from the blood vessels in his arm rushed towards Li Jialing's arm and body like a tide, really touching the other's limbs, eight meridians and even the dantian thoroughly.
But no matter how much he groped, he didn't find any strange power that invaded Li Jialing's body.
