Chapter 496

Hosted by the Star Language Institute, as a bridge for exchanges between the empire and foreign civilizations, his wisdom and foresight guide the development of the empire. Admirals guarded the empire's maritime frontiers, and their courage and wisdom added solid strength to the Parliament.

In addition, there are other high-level officials in the empire, such as the finance minister, foreign minister, military adviser, etc., who perform their respective duties and contribute to the prosperity and stability of the empire. These figures gathered in the High Lords Council to jointly decide on major affairs of the empire, forming a diversified and open decision-making system.

In short, the establishment of the High Lords Council marked a major change in the empire's power structure. It not only closely linked elites in various fields, but also achieved a high degree of decentralization and checks and balances of power, laying a solid foundation for the future development of the empire. "

Under the constraints of the emperor and the original system, the Supreme Lords Council can indeed give full play to its functions, properly exercise its power, lead the empire to move forward steadily, and continue to move forward along the right path. However, when the Lord of Mankind ascended the Golden Throne in glory, and the Primarch gradually disappeared into the long river of history, the bad qualities deeply engraved deep in human genes began to be exposed.

In that glorious era, the Supreme Lords Council relied on its high sense of responsibility and wise decision-making to make the empire achieve remarkable achievements in various fields. However, with the death of the Lord of Mankind and the disappearance of the original body, this restrictive power gradually weakened, and the originally suppressed bad nature grew like weeds.

Greed, selfishness, short-sightedness and prejudice in human nature have begun to spread in every corner of society without strong constraints. These bad qualities not only erode people's minds, but also seriously undermine social harmony and stability. The empire, once united, was now mired in division and strife.

In this context, although the Supreme Lords Council still strives to maintain the order of the empire, it has become unable to do so. The bad traits deep in human genes are like stubborn diseases that are difficult to eradicate. This not only makes the future of the empire confusing, but also makes people have endless nostalgia for the glorious past. "

Guilliman shook the goblet in his hand gently, then drank the red wine in one gulp. When he began to talk about politics, his primarch's eyes shone with a complex and awe-inspiring light, as if they were a window to another world, through which the depths of human history could be seen. with twists and turns. His voice is deep and powerful, and every word is like a carefully carved gem, reflecting his deep wisdom and rich experience. The surrounding audience were involuntarily attracted by his charm and listened quietly, as if at this moment they could touch the essence and core of politics.

With his unique perspective and exquisite writing, Konor Guilliman successfully shaped Robert Guilliman into a qualified politician. In the vast and complex arena of the Empire, Robert Guilliman handles various government affairs with ease with his keen insight and outstanding political talents. Whether facing the power struggle within the empire or the changes in the external world, Guilliman was able to respond appropriately with his profound political literacy and extraordinary wisdom, demonstrating his superb skills as a politician. Even in the most difficult moments, he was able to remain calm and use strategies skillfully to ensure the stability and development of the empire. It is this skillful political talent that makes Robert Guilliman unique on the stage of the Empire and becomes the object of admiration by everyone.

"Unrestricted rights are like a slow poison that quietly penetrates into the hearts of mortals. It slowly erodes their dreams and makes those beautiful longings gradually dissipate; it ruthlessly wears away their reason and makes them Become blind in the face of power; it can even corrode their original aspirations and make them forget why they set out.

The temptation of power is extremely huge. It is like a magnifying glass, magnifying mortal desires infinitely. Driven by power, they began to do anything for their own selfish desires, leaving morality and law behind. They trampled the law unscrupulously, trampled the majesty of the law under their feet, and plunged social order into chaos. At the same time, they ruthlessly trampled on the dignity of the people of the empire and ignored people's rights.

This kind of unchecked power is like opening Pandora's box, releasing endless greed and evil. It makes people get lost in the whirlpool of desire, forget their original intentions, and deviate from morality. If things continue like this, the empire will fall into irreversible decline, and its people will live in dire straits.

Therefore, we should be vigilant, restrict power, let it operate in the sun, and ensure that it serves the development of the empire and the happiness of its people, rather than becoming a poison that corrodes people's hearts. ""

Throughout history, power has always been a double-edged sword. When desires swell in the hearts of those mortals who hold power, they often ignore the overall interests of the empire and begin to harm the fundamental interests of the empire. Sometimes, just over a trivial matter, these powerful mortals can start endless arguments, and even continue to quarrel for as long as a month. This kind of inefficient decision-making process is intolerable in the current empire.

In Game of Thrones, selfish desires often blind people and make them forget their original responsibilities and missions. In order to compete for short-term glory and interests, they did not hesitate to sacrifice the long-term development of the empire. In those lengthy quarrels, they may forget that it is unity and wisdom that enable the empire to stand firm through storms.

In this situation, the speed and efficiency of decision-making in the empire became extremely low. As external threats continue to approach, internal conflicts are intensifying day by day, and the mortals who hold power are still indulged in meaningless quarrels. This kind of efficiency is unacceptable to the current empire. The future of the empire needs to be led by leaders who can put aside their selfish desires and put the interests of the country and the nation first in order to regain its vitality and move towards prosperity. "

Guilliman has always been known for his calmness and composure. His emotions are like a hidden iceberg, and only the tip of the iceberg can always be seen. However, in front of the majesty of the imperial regent, this usually calm general showed a rare hint of gaffe. There was an imperceptible fluctuation in his eyes, and his brows trembled slightly. The pressure and tension accumulated over the past few days seemed to have found an outlet at this moment. Although he quickly adjusted his expression in an attempt to hide the gaffe, the subtle changes were enough for people to glimpse his deep passion and determination.

Among many political systems, the alliance system is undoubtedly the most criticized. Not only did it lack vision, it was also slow and ineffective. In this era surrounded by enemies, our empire is facing unprecedented challenges. At this moment, what is needed most is unconditional loyalty and efficient execution. Although the one-man dictatorship has flaws in some aspects, it is currently the most effective and practical governance solution for the empire.

The problem with a coalition system is that it disperses power among individual coalition members, making the decision-making process cumbersome and contentious. In an environment surrounded by enemies, this system made it difficult for the empire to make decisions quickly, thus missing valuable opportunities to respond to crises. Although the power of a one-man dictatorship is highly concentrated, the decision-making is quick and the execution is strong, which helps the empire to respond quickly at critical moments and ensure the security and stability of the country.

One-man dictatorship does have some drawbacks, such as the possibility of abuse of power, but these drawbacks cannot conceal its huge contribution to the empire under the current situation. Compared with the inefficiency and chaos of the alliance system, one-man dictatorship can at least ensure the unity and efficient operation of the empire. At a critical moment of life and death, what the empire needs is stability and strength, not endless arguments and wrangling.

Therefore, in this challenging era, the one-man dictatorship, although imperfect, is the most effective governance solution for the empire. We should weigh the pros and cons and choose the path most suitable for the development of the empire to ensure the prosperity and strength of the country. "The eyes of the Imperial Regent were like an unfathomable pool, silently staring at the emotional Guilliman. The atmosphere seemed to freeze, and time stood still at this moment, until the Imperial Regent slowly spoke, breaking the silence. He gently picked up the hand The exquisite mahogany wine bottle was tilted skillfully, and the mellow red wine slowly flowed into the glass, making a low and pleasant sound. He handed the wine glass to Guilliman, with an unfathomable meaning in his eyes. Hint, and seem to be expecting.

"Guilliman, I noticed that you seem to be a little anxious right now." The Imperial Regent slowly pushed the exquisite wine glass to the hand of the original body, his tone revealing gentleness and care, "Please relax a little. I don’t have any intention to accuse you, nor do I intend to make groundless accusations against you.”

He smiled slightly, his eyes full of comfort: "Our gathering tonight is to discuss important matters, but at the same time, we also hope that we can relax a little. Please put down your worries and let us Communicate with a more relaxed attitude.”

Guilliman looked at the wine glass and felt the regent's kindness. His brows gradually relaxed and the tension in his eyes gradually dissipated. The Imperial Regent continued: "We are all important members of the Empire, and mutual understanding and trust are crucial. Tonight, I just want to have a frank conversation with you, without any intention of blame." "In the fleet. During the long journey across the stars, I met him in the warp and witnessed the majestic appearance of the Emperor, the Lord of Mankind. There, the Emperor showed his profound expression. With an eye for everything, he gave high praise and appreciation to the reform policies you implemented on Terra. The Emperor believed that your actions not only effectively promoted the development of Terran society, but also brought benefits to the entire galaxy. A positive demonstration effect. In the vastness of the stars and the sea, such achievements are particularly precious, and the emperor's recognition is undoubtedly the best recognition of your work."

The deep and concerned words of the Imperial Regent made Guilliman slightly stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his deep eyes. The Imperial Regent seemed to want to give him some kind of comfort, but Guilliman smiled lightly and responded firmly: "Imperial Regent, you don't need to comfort me. This level of pressure is not enough for me. , it is not enough to have any substantial impact on me." Guilliman's voice was calm and powerful, revealing the confidence and calmness deep in his heart.

"I have no interest in comforting a grown man." The Imperial Regent shrugged slightly, with a hint of indifference in his eyes. "These are just words spoken by the Emperor himself. I did not add any modifications."

His voice was calm and indifferent, as if he was narrating something insignificant. The people around him could feel the firmness and disdain in his words, which was a transcendence of power and status, and a profound insight into human nature.

"The emperor's mind is naturally not something that we mortals can easily understand." He continued, with a slight upward curve of his mouth, revealing a subtle irony, "Every word he says carries the future and destiny of the empire."

The people around him nodded silently, knowing that the regent's words were not groundless. In this world full of power and struggle, comfort and sympathy are often the privilege of the weak, while the strong only need to show their strength and determination. ”

Before Guilliman was about to be touched by the subtleties of Imperial politics, the Imperial Regent quickly ended this in-depth discussion on Imperial politics with an unquestionable and decisive attitude. There was an unquestionable firmness in his eyes, and an unquestionable authority in his words, which shocked everyone present and immediately realized that the conversation could no longer continue.

"Change the subject," the Imperial Regent's face was like the sky covered with dark clouds, and suddenly became serious. His eyes revealed an unquestionable majesty, "Guilliman, I want to know, how much do you know about the Battle of Randan that shocked the universe during the Great Crusade? That battle not only changed the course of Imperial history, but also left an indelible mark in the hearts of countless brave warriors. You should know that it was a battle that was related to the survival of the Empire, and every detail is worth our careful consideration. "His words were like a cold blade, irritating Guilliman's nerves and forcing him to take this issue seriously."

When the words "Battle of Randan" reached his ears, the Primarch's expression instantly became solemn, as if time had stopped at this moment, and he fell into deep thought. It was a silence that seemed to transcend time and space, long and heavy.

"Imperial Regent, you should not explore this issue." Guilliman's voice was low and serious, as if every word carried an unquestionable weight, "In those distant years, Dorn and I solemnly exchanged blood oaths under the sacred witness of the magic pattern Malcador. It was an oath, an unforgettable promise. All the details of the Battle of Randan were sealed in the dust of history.
