Chapter 3330 Civil Strife
Who doesn't like to hear good things?
So when Seren praised me in various ways, my expression was bright.
Speaking of which, Selen doesn't always confront me. When it's time to praise, it never hesitates to praise me.
"By the way, where have you been these days?"
I asked curiously.
In the past few days, I couldn't see Salem's shadow almost every day. I thought that the reception was not good enough, which made him feel dissatisfied, so he ran away from home.
But that doesn't seem to be the case.
"I went to Dragon Island." Salem grinned. Its smile was not pretty at all, even a little ferocious: "The construction is good."
"That's it." I sighed and said, "How many days have you been away from home?"
"There's nothing I can do," Seren said: "The sea here is much wider than the Demon Realm, and it's also much more dangerous. I have to be on guard at all times."
That's right, even its majesty, the Tyrannosaurus King Bakar, would lose his life in a daze at sea, not to mention it being far weaker than Bakar.
"How have you been on Long Island these days?" I asked again.
"It's okay, but the variety of food is a little less and the taste is not satisfactory. I have to say that Florence's cooking skills are better."
"Of course." I puffed up my chest and said proudly, "She is the royal chef of the Fearless Guild."
"By the way, what has Spitz been up to lately?"
"Lord Spitz is supervising the construction of the castle," Seren said. "The castle is currently being constructed to the most important part. We cannot neglect it at all."
"That's too much," I said, "The craftsmen I sent are all the craftsmen with the most craftsman spirit. Even if they don't supervise, they will definitely complete the task beautifully."
"I believe this," Seren said, "I believe His Highness Spitz also believes it. However, I think you must have heard about the fact that our Dragon Clan is suspicious."
"If your words of being suspicious of your race reach Bakar's ears, do you believe he will swallow you whole?"
"No," Seren said easily, "Your Majesty will not execute me for such a trivial matter, not to mention that what I said is a fact that even Your Majesty admits."
"Okay, you're right." I curled my lips and said, "However, neither Bakar, Spitz, nor you seem to be on guard against me. I really can't think of any reason why the Dragon Clan is so suspicious. Where did it come from?”
"Not setting up defenses against you doesn't mean we won't put up defenses against other humans," Seren explained: "We don't put up defenses against you because you are an ally of our dragon clan, and everyone from His Majesty to me has chosen to trust you absolutely. This is the most rare thing in the world. You have to be proud of this honor.”
"Well, I'm proud."
He nodded solemnly.
Unexpectedly, Seren burst into laughter: "Forget it, with your expression, you don't look serious."
"What do you mean by not being serious?" I asked back, "I am very serious!"
"Come on," Seren said, "I have seen you look serious when you are serious. In addition to being serious in speech, your demeanor and temperament are also different from the one you have now."
"Then tell me, what is my temperament like at the moment?"
"Well, it's a little cynical."
I:
A week went by in a blink of an eye.
During this period, several major events occurred.
One of the things that surprised me the most was that there were spontaneously organized civilian teams in Dasai City, marching in the capital, and clashing with the city guards.
The conflict was fierce and even caused many casualties.
It can be called the most tragic civil strife in Dashai City in a century.
However, this is just the beginning.
It is said that civil organizations have begun planning, focusing on two aspects. One is to establish a civilian army to launch a vigorous attack on the Qing Dynasty and kill the old Duke and his faction; the other is to directly establish a civilian organization to replace the Fergus family.
The first aspect has received responses from many people among the people, but the second aspect has caused great differences among the people.
Most people believe that the Fergus family to which Tianming belongs is still very friendly to the people, and no unfriendly royal family members such as Airui City have appeared.
Even Fergus Illidan, who is usually the most domineering and arrogant, has a very tolerant attitude towards the people, and this tolerance comes from the bottom of his heart.
A few people think that the emperor takes turns and will come to my house next year. Why has the Fergus family ruled Dashai City for thousands of years? Just because his family's ancestors were the first to propose the establishment of Dashai City, the Fergus family has the permanent control of Dashai. Are you qualified for the city?
Don’t forget, in addition to the Fergus family, there were nearly a hundred other families who established Dasay City. Why should these nearly a hundred families be covered by the dust of history? Only the Fergus family can survive. Perpetuity on the bright side of history?
So people privately started to use slogans like "Princes, generals and ministers would rather have their own kind", and continued to accumulate manpower and material resources, hoping to do something big.
But their behavior is not favored by most people.
But these people don't care. As the saying goes, the truth is in the hands of a few people. They claim that those who hold the truth should turn the truth into a sharp blade and cut off injustice.
But anyone who listens to this slogan will not feel excited. On the contrary, they will feel that this slogan is simply nonsense.
The reason is very simple. Most of the environment in Dasai City under the rule of the Orc King is fair. Basically, everyone has food to eat, clothing to wear, and money to spare.
If such a regime is to be overthrown, then only two countries in the Zephyr Continent, Moonlight City and Fort Witch, will barely survive.
Except for these two countries, the other three countries all have both civilians and poor people. It's just that there are more poor people in Ai Rui City and York Han City, while there are fewer in Dasai City.
But those passionate careerists don't think so. What they see in their eyes are the shortcomings of this country. In their view, this country is simply a representative of the smog that needs to be cleaned up and purified.
And they happen to have the ability to purify this country.
What a self-righteous idea!
When I obtained this information, I couldn't help but be shocked by this theory.
It’s so narcissistic!
However, if you think about it, if any rebel organization does not have similar slogans and declarations, it will lose the charm of recruiting people with the same ideas.
Second only to the civil strife in Dashai City, it is the matter related to the aristocratic groups in Airui City and York Han City.
Due to the ban on trading, the noble group lost tens of thousands of gold coins in their income source in just one week.
This is a huge amount of money, and it is a sustainable fund. It was suddenly banned, and it is not clear how long it will be banned. This incident directly dealt a major blow to the aristocratic group.
