1153 Before the Storm

Lynch did not believe that Mr. Trueman did not know what happened. Considering that this was a public place where confidentiality was not confidential, he shook his head and said, "I hope God will bless Gaevra and everything will pass."

Mr. Trueman smiled and nodded, "Yes, no matter what kind of disaster it is, it will pass one day."

Not long after, the owner of the restaurant delivered the food for the two of them.

Beef ribs are deboned ribs, a large piece weighing about a pound, and you can clearly see the signs of bone removal.

The fascia that tightly wraps the bones has not completely shrunk, and there is a certain space left in the middle, which should be the bones that have just been removed.

There is also a pork sausage on top of the plate, about one-half pound. If you are dining in a roadside ordinary restaurant like this, if the meal is not cheap, then the boss better give more.

Ordinary people have only two demands for eating, either it is cheap or it is full.

This is the kind of place where you can eat enough to eat. It is not cheap, but you can eat meat to fill up your stomach. This kind of restaurant is also very popular, especially suitable for those who are engaged in labor force.

They need a good meal once in a while!

Ordinary sauce is paired with ordinary vegetables and an ordinary but solid pork sausage. The two of them didn't seem to think these ingredients were low-grade at all, and they ate them deliciously.

On the other side of the strait, His Majesty the Emperor of Gefra was standing by the window looking at the stars in the sky.

The weather is good today. The sky at night is densely covered with stars. It is like a curtain in an opera house. There is something bright shining on it after this darkness, so that those little stars can make people feel themselves. of insignificance.

It was a nice night, with a gentle wind and a suitable temperature, but His Majesty the Emperor of Gaevra did not seem to feel at all comfortable because of this.

His face was ugly, and his eldest son and second son were standing not far behind him.

He still had a daughter, but she didn't come over. After he personally killed those brothers and sisters who threatened him, he understood a truth.

When you are an emperor, you don't need to have too many children, and you don't need to give a little hope to those who have no hope. It will not make them motivated, it will only destroy them.

So there were only his two sons in the room, but among these two sons, there was also an idiot.

The eldest prince looked at his younger brother worriedly, with some dissatisfaction in his eyes.

Just now, the second prince actually said that he believed that the royal family's withdrawal from the core of power was the inevitable direction of social development.

This completely angered His Majesty the Emperor. Even those ministers who betrayed him did not make him so angry and dissatisfied.

He knew that the royal family and the aristocratic group would never stand together, so whether it was the prime minister or other ministers, their seizure of power was an inevitable process of the alternate development of Gaevra's political system.

The royal family held power for a while, and then the ministers held power for a while.

Only this time, the Prime Minister seemed to want to flip the table and actually proposed the idea of ​​a constitutional monarchy.

The royal family needs to give up enough power to become a mascot.

The reason is that authoritarian regimes can no longer keep up with the rapid development of the international community. In order to keep up with such rapid development, backward systems such as monarchy must be eliminated.

During the confrontation between the two sides, he did not expect that his second son would also stand in the noble camp.

His Majesty the Emperor turned and looked at the second prince, "I asked you to go to the Royal Academy because I hope you can make more friends, outstanding talents, and top scientists in society."

"These people can provide you with all kinds of help in your future life journey, but I am definitely not asking you to go against me."

He looked at the chief steward of the royal family, who was also his form, "Take this trash down and don't let him come out without my consent..."

The steward bowed slightly and walked to the second prince's side, "Please follow me..."

There is a special place for people under house arrest in the palace. The internal fighting in the royal family of Gefra has almost never stopped. The previous emperors built many rooms with special functions to confine people, punish or even abuse those who had used them. competitors.

On the way to the solitary room, the second prince was walking and suddenly asked, "Uncle, do you think I was wrong?"

He just faced his father, and His Majesty the Emperor told him about the various drawbacks of the monarchy and the benefits of the constitutional monarchy.

They can ensure the specialness of the royal family to the greatest extent and control some amendment powers, such as the power to deny and impeach the prime minister.

It seems as if more power has fallen into the hands of the aristocratic group and the royal family, but in fact this is not entirely the case.

The royal family still has considerable power and does not need to be responsible for the failure of any policy. They will only enjoy the results.

If someone wants to enter politics, they can take power through elections.

The Federal Congress and the president's methods of play have made this remote place that once only had indigenous people and exiles now become a force that can compete with Gaevra.

This further illustrates that monarchs...or dictatorships no longer have a market.

No one has omniscience and omnipotence, not even God. In this case, the concentration of power on one person is the greatest dereliction of duty to all citizens!

So the second prince knew that he was also a beneficiary of imperial power, but he still sided with the aristocratic group.

He does not want to betray or overthrow his father, but simply hopes that this country will become stronger.

The steward walked slowly without speaking. The long corridor leading to the solitary room became more and more depressing, and the second prince felt a little desperate.

Once he is imprisoned, it means... it may be difficult for him to leave. He knows what his father's character is like, and he knows that he will not admit his failure until the last moment.

Seeing the solitary room right in front of him, the steward suddenly stopped. He turned and looked at the second prince, "I very much support your statement. If a civil war breaks out between the aristocratic group and the royal family, maybe... we will lose everything."

"I will tell His Majesty that you have been locked up..."

The second prince looked at his uncle, the steward of the royal family, with some confusion. The latter smiled and said, "Do what you want to do. I will help you hide it first, so don't expose yourself prematurely."

The second prince's already desperate heart was instantly illuminated by light. He nodded vigorously, hesitated for a moment, then held the steward's hand with both hands and said sincerely, "Thank you!"

Then, he left without looking back.

After watching the second prince leave, the steward returned to the study. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor was discussing with the eldest prince how to strengthen the security of the palace and mobilize some elite royal guards.

His Majesty the Emperor saw the steward, and their eyes exchanged in a very brief moment, probably like

"Has it be done?"

"it is done!"

With such simplicity, His Majesty the Emperor lowered his head and continued to deal with the work in his hands. As a dictator, an emperor who killed all his brothers and sisters who threatened him and ascended the throne as a "bastard".

His control over the royal family and the palace far exceeds that of any imperial emperor, so there is no such thing as a "defection" that was not authorized by him.

To put it more clearly, he asked the steward to let the second prince go.

As an emperor and a politician, he knew the value of leaving himself a way out.

Compared with the second prince's slightly "naive" ideas, the eldest prince stood firmly on the side of His Majesty the Emperor.

The emperor did not have many children. Unlike his stallion father, he could grab any girl in the palace and take off her pants, whether she was a maid or a servant, to carry out the great cause of the race.

Of course, he also has to thank his stallion father. It was his stallion behavior at no time or occasion that made him the emperor he is today.

His Majesty the Emperor hated the feeling of brothers and sisters fighting each other. He knew that as an emperor, he was not the best.

He did not receive the most professional education as an emperor. His pure-blood brothers could always accompany his father, watching the old emperor handle various government affairs, and even make some decisions on his behalf.

He couldn't, he was a mongrel, and besides having an impure bloodline, he lacked a powerful relative.

Unlike the Third Prince who put the greatest pressure on him, his mother was the daughter of a certain Grand Duke of Gefra. Even if he could not inherit the throne here, he could still go back and inherit the principality.

At the same time, the principality was an aid to his fight for the throne.

The current Emperor has nothing. He takes every step very carefully. He is an excellent executioner. On a stormy night, with a few people loyal to him, he attacked and killed all the brothers who threatened him. sisters.

In a certain respect, he is a qualified emperor, at least he is a capable and courageous emperor.

He hoped that his children would not be so stupid as to fight and kill each other, so he restrained his desire and only gave birth to a few children.

At this time, he was thinking about the next countermeasures. The phone in the room rang. He walked to one side and picked it up. The manager took the initiative to stand in another corner of the room to ensure that he would not eavesdrop inadvertently. To what.

After a while, the emperor returned to the table expressionlessly and continued to study some countermeasures with his eldest prince.

This call was not only made to His Majesty the Emperor, the Prime Minister also received it.

He had been asleep for a while. As people get older, it is difficult to stay up late.

It’s not that they can’t survive it, they can go to bed later, but as long as it’s a little later, there’s a high chance they’ll suffer from insomnia.

He has a lot of complicated work every day. He can't sleep too late or even stay awake. He has to be responsible for his own work.

At this time, the ringing of the phone woke him up. After he opened his eyes, he lay there for more than ten seconds, then put the pillow behind his waist, sat up and answered the phone.
