Chapter 443
"Of course I can."
Su Yi had almost no hesitation.
I don't know why, but at this time, he inexplicably remembered the jokes about the magical success tutor.
I will give millions to anyone who betrays me. Needless to say, anyone who trusts me.
Of course, this is just a joke that comes to mind for no reason, and he is not the one who was taken advantage of.
Most of the people who really betrayed him were crushed by him.
Others don't even need to be very loyal, as long as they play their roles well by his side, they are basically getting good rewards now.
Not to mention Weiwei.
Su Yi is not a person who forgets his roots. Although it is inevitable for him to start a career after gaining a platform, without Weiwei's help in the early days, he certainly would not have been able to rise so quickly.
Although in his early days, his friendship with Weiwei was based on transactions, in many cases the benefits obtained from others cannot be regarded as a simple exchange of interests.
I think that if I pay the money and deliver the goods, that's it.
There is some emotion in it.
So as long as Weiwei didn't do anything too outrageous in the future, Su Yi would protect her no matter what. Even considering that she might not be suitable to be the emperor of a huge classical empire, he had even considered how to handle future government affairs for her.
Of course, as a member of the trading platform, Weiwei herself is not a vase, and she doesn't actually need anyone to keep it.
She has mastered a world's resources and is fully qualified to trade with Su Yi normally.
"Are you so confident that you can protect her under any circumstances?"
Su Yi's decisive answer seemed to make Bai Yu feel a little lonely.
It is true that he is obsessed with power, but he still has feelings for this sister who is truly a sibling from the same mother.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the only relative in the world.
But under the constraints of the current situation, when Mengchuan City was besieged, it was really difficult for him to help Weiwei.
It's okay to help if you really want to, but it will affect your status and prestige within the faction.
So he could only watch with cold eyes.
Mainly because Bai Yu knew very well that even if those aliens really captured Mengchuan City and slaughtered the entire city and even several provinces in the north, they would never dare to touch Weiwei's hair.
As the eldest princess of the Blazing Sun Empire's generation, Weiwei's life would never be in danger.
At most, it would be the loss of one territory.
That's why he was so determined to sit back and watch.
"Your vision is too low. I'm afraid it's hard to imagine the scenery we can see."
"The magical world is, after all, just a speck of dust in the universe. Keeping her safe in this world is nothing to me."
Su Yi's answer was very simple. He didn't save much face, and he was more or less bragging.
"This puts me at ease." Bai Yu let out a long breath:
"I hope you can fulfill your promise and treat her well."
"After today, you will probably be the only one she can rely on."
"Huh?" Su Yi raised his eyebrows.
"Didn't I tell you that I should have been killed along with several royal brothers a long time ago. I am alive today just to see you. For the sake of the brothers and sisters, Weiwei is going online to let me live longer. Half a month."
Bai Yu smiled and seemed not to care about this.
As he spoke, he slowly stood up from his seat, walked to the window sill of the attic, looked at the bustling imperial capital outside, and said with some emotion:
"In recent times, I have not only learned your language from the people of Kyushu, but I have also learned a lot about your governance concepts and social patterns."
"It will definitely be better for the empire to be in Weiwei's hands than to be in the hands of just a few of us."
"The great rivers and mountains... are so fascinating."
...
The conversation, which was similar to a brother-in-law explaining his funeral affairs, ended.
Weiwei never came back after leaving the attic. Su Yi only saw her when he went down.
At this time, the dusk had fallen, but in the dim light, he could vaguely see that Weiwei's eyes seemed to be a little red, and she had obviously cried secretly.
But in front of him, Weiwei still tried to maintain the calmness that an empress who was about to ascend to the throne should have:
"Are you done talking?"
"Yes." Su Yi was not polite and stepped directly onto her carriage.
Under the surprised gazes of all the guards and maids, he sat down next to her.
"He will be taken back to the sky prison later and will be executed soon. At the same time, we will completely declare that the previous civil war was an unjust war started by a few princes for their own selfish interests, and we will provide justice for the innocent people who were killed in this war. Hold a memorial service.”
She briefly talked about her treatment plan for Bai Yu.
"If you don't want to kill him, it's okay to leave him alive."
Su Yi shook his head.
He was not stupid. Since Weiwei had acquiesced to him meeting Bai Yu and specifically said this in front of him, she was obviously still a little reluctant and wanted him to come up with an idea.
"But this will be a bad start." Weiwei shook her head and said:
"The crimes he committed are countless. No matter how many civilians were affected by previous wars between nobles, they would not be punished. Even if the losers in various struggles were eventually executed, the reason had nothing to do with harming ordinary people."
"The reason why I execute them this time is that they have brought great suffering to the innocent people of the empire, and their crimes are unpardonable."
"The purpose is to tell everyone that even if a prince breaks the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and to strip away the privileges of the nobility to a certain extent at the legal level."
"Executing them will set a good example for the next reform. If we pardon them at this time, it will backfire."
"I am about to ascend the throne. If I can't set an example for the world, how can I convince people?"
To put it bluntly, she and these princes certainly don't have any life-and-death feud.
The execution of these princes is actually to set an example for the world.
It is the first step to break the original order framework of this world.
For this, she has actually been under a lot of pressure.
For those nobles, it is a small matter for the queen who is about to ascend the throne to execute several of her brothers, but they cannot agree with the reason of harming civilians.
Although no one dared to oppose it openly with the support of the ancestor Chiyang, there was a lot of criticism in private.
If they give up halfway and leave Bai Yu alive, then the reform will not change.
"No one asks you to be an excellent queen, just do what you want."
Feeling the sway of the sedan chair, Su Yi directly reached out and held Weiwei's slender waist, leaning close to her ear and said:
"Changing people's hearts is not a matter of one day or one night, nor can you set an example alone."
"This is a long process. Without the power to control everything, personal behavior is actually insignificant in it."
"Compared to the rulers of the magic world before, you can empathize with ordinary people at the bottom, which is much better than them. There is no need to rush to make drastic changes. We still have a lot of time."
