Chapter 3400 Parents and Children Meet
I informed Cagalli of my specific thoughts.
After hearing my plan, Cagalli neither agreed nor objected, but just looked at me with strange eyes.
It seems to be asking me: Is it really possible?
To be honest, I don’t know if it’s possible or not. I can only say give it a try, it’s best if it works.
Cagalli asked me again, what should I do if it doesn't work?
I thought about it and told her: "If it doesn't succeed, I will take everyone to escape to a foreign country and find an isolated island to enjoy the rest of my life."
A week passed quickly.
I took Cagalli and boarded the magic airship and headed towards Dashai City.
After landing a few kilometers away from the border of Dashai City, he met up with the dwarf guild members who came quickly and established a temporary stronghold.
An hour later, an army formed by the orcs came towards this direction in a mighty manner. The leader was the old duke. Next to him, there was the orc king and the orc queen.
From a distance, you can't see anything. When you look closer, you suddenly realize that the Beastman King and the Beastman Queen are much more haggard than before.
But his mental state is very good.
As soon as Cagalli saw her parents, she couldn't hold back her tears and excitement. She cried and threw herself into her parents' arms.
At the same time, I stepped forward and stopped when I was still a few meters away from the old Duke. I said in a deep voice: "It's so boring to watch family reunions. How about walking around?"
The old Duke said "hmm" and walked away from me alone without any guards.
"You said you are the same. How old are you? You are still greedy for power and you are not afraid of being eaten by power?"
"Power is an addictive thing. The more you have it, the more you crave it."
This time, the old Duke did not defend himself, but said to himself: "Don't you have the desire and pursuit of power?"
"No." I shook my head and said, "You should know that even if I am deprived of my position as prime minister, won't I still live happily?"
The old Duke snorted and said leisurely: "You still have the position of an elder of a foreign race, and you are also the adopted son of Master Dewey. These two identities alone have put you at the pinnacle of power."
"My happiest time was not when I became an elder of a foreign tribe, nor when I was named the prime minister, nor when I was recognized as my adopted son by Master Dewey, but when I was in Airui City."
"Haha" the old Duke chuckled twice, his laughter full of ridicule.
"You do not believe?"
I asked.
The old Duke grinned and asked, "Do you believe it?"
"I believe it," I said, "because this is what I say, because this is what I say in my heart."
"Okay, let's leave it at that," the old Duke said, "but now, don't you still need power to protect your woman?"
After the old Duke finished speaking, he glanced specifically in Cagalli's direction.
"Yes," I said, "but not absolutely. Even if I don't have the right and the Dwarf Guild doesn't help me, I still have a way to prevent you from taking away my Cagalli."
After pondering for a moment, the old Duke asked: "Are you referring to the apostle?"
"That's right," I said, "This time, I contacted the apostles and they will be here shortly."
Hearing this, the old Duke looked solemn and said with a gloomy face: "You called the apostle here, do you want to kill me, or do you intend to destroy Dashai City?"
"Obviously, neither of these situations exist," I said. "I called the apostle here to protect my father-in-law and mother-in-law. After all, the distance from here to the Cyber City territory is not short."
When the old Duke heard this, his expression became even more gloomy.
It seems that I was right.
Not long after, another magic airship landed slowly, and two people in robes got off the airship.
Although the person who came was wearing a robe, she had a slim figure and looked like a woman.
They got off the airship and walked towards me immediately.
As they walked towards them, some adventurers from Sai City wanted to stop drinking. However, after opening their mouths for a long time, they suddenly found that no sound came out. What made them even more horrified was that they could not even move.
The old Duke's face was as gloomy as ink, his old eyes stared at the visitor closely, and his body was trembling continuously.
"Coming?" I asked.
"Coming" a clear voice sounded, it was Shilok's voice.
Di Ruiji didn't make a sound, but followed Sherlock closely like a follower.
I smiled, turned to look at the old Duke, and said, "Look, the temporary bodyguard I hired is here."
The old Duke was silent for a long time, then raised his feet to leave.
"Wait a minute," I said, "It won't delay you much if you let your parents and children get together, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the old Duke's face full of horror - he was also unable to speak or move like the adventurers who blocked him.
"Let's talk some more, let's talk some more" I said with a smile: "Actually, I quite admire you. Really, as a hero, you really meet all the conditions for a hero, but as a minister, You are not a qualified official."
"In my opinion, a truly powerful minister should not usurp the throne, but should persuade and impress the monarch with his own ideas. It is best to make the monarch identify with him or even regard him as a confidant."
"Maybe you will say that monarchs are lonely and have no confidants at all, but I want to say that you are wrong, you are really wrong, and your wrong is quite outrageous."
Looking at the old Duke with a look of resentment, I continued: "A monarch needs a confidant, and a monarch with a confidant will be gentler than a monarch without a confidant. In addition, if the monarch's confidant is a wise person, then the monarch will His rule will also become wise, and the people under his command will also become rational and clear."
"Actually, you only need to think about it for a moment to figure out the key," I said. "After all, you have been in politics for so many years, and you should be able to sum up many different types of political methods."
"But you did not choose to be a powerful minister, but chose to be a tycoon. You wanted to replace him. You even planned to take this opportunity to eradicate His Majesty and his wife. This is no longer a simple tyrant. You have He has been promoted to a heart-rending hero."
Smiling, I squatted down, picked up a few grasses from the ground, and said, "Actually, I knew your thoughts from the very beginning. You planned to use the miserable current situation in Sai City to coax Cagalli to return to the country. After all, she is a She is a straightforward girl with a kind and warm-hearted personality and a stubborn personality. Once she is identified, no matter how much I try to persuade her, she will definitely return to Dasai City. As long as you step into Dasai City with your front foot, you can catch her with your back foot. and imprisoned.”
"For Ye Long Meng Duo, if I am not wrong, after being imprisoned, you will threaten her to marry one of your juniors in the shortest possible time based on your reputation, directly cut off the relationship between me and Cajiali, and send me to the rescue card Carrie’s reasons have been completely cut off, isn’t it, Lord Regent?”
