Chapter 459 Point to point, one person fires

"Oh, Daphne...are you sure?"

The old emperor looked at the middle-aged maid who came back first, who nodded gently.

"Yes, your majesty, I am sure that I will not be mistaken. They have indeed reached that step, and I can feel that Daphne has completely fallen into the arms of your knight commander, and your knight commander is very interested in Daphne."

Although Her Majesty Ni was not that concerned, she accepted Daphne's existence.

"Between them, Daphne is attached to Grand Duke Hanton, but they are indeed a couple."

"That's good."

The old emperor laughed:

"In addition to being good-looking, dancing and singing, does Daphne have any fighting or co-ordinating abilities? No, she is just an ordinary child. Being able to trap an ancient god warrior like White Ghost is already beyond her capabilities.

the maximum value.

"Where are they now?"

"At the door, Your Majesty, according to your request, there will be a simple open-air press conference to convey the news that the White Ghost has arrived on the Emperor Star."

"Oh, thank you for your hard work."

The old emperor pressed a button on his hand and said with a smile:

"I'm going to greet the young couple at the door. Also, I'm going to raise the specifications of the dinner and ask my favorite chef to cook a few more delicacies."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Hehehe, ah," the old emperor's eyes flashed with a sharp light, "This is the best news I have heard in the past few days."

…

As soon as Yang Ming saw the old emperor, he received a bear hug from the emperor.

"Oh, Hanton! You're finally here! How are you these days? There are a few old people who want to suppress your arrogance, and you make them feel uneasy, Hanton."

The emperor could pat him on the back hard, but he didn't dare to pat the emperor on the back hard.

If his spine was shattered and fractured by such a slap, he, the white ghost, would directly become a regicide.

Although becoming a regicide is not a bad thing, but... the time has not yet come.

When the old emperor let go, Yang Ming performed a knight's salute, the badge on his chest shining brightly.

He said warmly: "Your Majesty, I have made you worry. I actually know who is targeting me. What they are afraid of is not my combat effectiveness, but my appeal to grassroots officers and soldiers, and my influence on the people. And among them

So the fear of me is probably due to the concept of judging others by oneself and the jealousy."

"Jealous? Hahaha!"

The old emperor put his hands on his hips, threw his head back and laughed, the exquisite nightgown on his body was shaking constantly, and his saggy-skinned old face smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum.

"Yes, Hanton. They are just jealous of you. Come on, have a cup of tea first. I have already notified a few of them to come over."

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Yang Ming followed with a smile, his hands behind his back.

Daphne, who had been ignored by the emperor, was watching this scene with a smile, and then walked to the corner of the hall, where there was her exclusive rest area in this situation.

Time was running out, so Yang Ming decided to go straight to the topic.

He looked around and whispered: "Your Majesty, the situation is very complicated now, so I won't guess what you are thinking. I'm afraid that I will make a mistake and delay your important event... Earl Guigan's death was arranged by you.

of?"

"How could it be?" the old emperor laughed, "Although I want to torment the empire, but the people I want to torment are the great nobles who have real power. How can I let class conflicts break out in my own empire?"

"Not you?" Yang Ming nodded and asked again, "Then you call me over..."

"It was my brother-in-law, Director Ino, who insisted on calling you over."

The old emperor's eyes flickered slightly, he took Yang Ming for a walk by the pool in the center of the hall, and said with a smile:

"You may not know what happened before, after all, the information is secret and only in a very small circle.

"Sometimes, I, the emperor, do not have the final say in this country. You should already know this. My elders can always impose restrictions on me.

"What happened this time was caused by them. They felt that you had become a threat to the empire, so they wanted to solve this problem... In order to protect you, I wanted to let you go to Domingos Planet to build some military exploits.

"

Yang Ming smiled and said: "You want me to get my hands dirty so they won't be afraid of me?"

"Uh-huh," the old emperor smiled with squinted eyes.

The two seemed to be chatting about yesterday's fishing harvest, and it didn't look like they were talking about anything important.

The old emperor continued:

"Unexpectedly, Hanton, you expressed resistance to this matter and refused the order to plunder slaves. You also strongly reprimanded the military and forced the military to turn to counter-terrorism.

"There are also a group of old guys in the military. They have rooted themselves in the soil of the military through mentoring. Some people still hope to become a presence in that small circle... In short, it is very complicated, and then they

I couldn't get angry, so I held the press conference.

"Here, it can be said that they are considering the stability of the empire. After all, the current order of the empire is made by them, and instability is harmful to them.

"But they were mostly trying to subdue you because you revealed your identity as the Grand Duke of the Empire and reprimanded them... Tsk, this is so cool!"

The old emperor smiled and said: "If you scold them, it is equivalent to me scolding them."

Yang Ming's face showed surprise: "I asked why they used the dreadnought to scare me... I really thought I was scared."

"Now they are coming to beg you again," the old emperor smiled with squinting eyes, "Wait a minute, my six uncles will bring some officials from the Presbytery, the Military Department, the Foreign Affairs Bureau, and the Ministry of Government Affairs over, and they still want to

To put pressure on you, by the way, Ino is here too, he should be able to say a few words for you."

Yang Ming smiled and said: "That's what I want to ask you, Your Majesty... In what direction do you want things to develop, I will work hard to make things develop in that direction."

"Oh," the old emperor raised his hand and patted Yang Ming's arm, "You still have to be considerate, Hanton. In fact, to be honest, if you let the following make a fuss and make a mess, you can also find many problems and avoid bigger ones.

The problem has no impact on me as the emperor, I just need to stand up at the critical moment and deliver a speech to the whole country, that is enough."

"I understand," Yang Ming nodded, "the power they hold is indeed too great."

The old emperor smiled and said nothing.

Yang Ming said: "Your Majesty, I have one more small request."

"Just say it."

"I want an investigation report on the slave population in the empire. The more detailed the better. Give me some time to read this report."

"Okay, I'll ask them to send it over right away," the old emperor said warmly, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, and don't push yourself too hard."

"But Your Majesty," Yang Ming pursed his lips slightly, with a bit of anger in his eyes, "The history books I studied said that the New Calendar Reform bound the imperial power to the Emperor Star, but I didn't expect that the chains that bound the imperial power would actually

It is the existence that oppresses the people."

The old emperor's eyes lit up: "Your description is very appropriate."

"As your knight commander, I will support you unswervingly," Yang Ming whispered, "you have love for the people."

"It's inevitable."

The old emperor opened his hands: "Come, give Hanton a hug, my son-in-law."

Yang Ming rolled his eyes in his heart, but still hugged the emperor seriously.

"Just go ahead and do it."

The old emperor encouraged him by arching the fire.

…

Yang Ming was sitting on a sofa in the corner of a palace hall used for conferences.

Those old men came much slower than he thought.

He held the empire's most official data in hand and was thinking about the next step.

Politics is much more complicated than he originally thought.

Even if one knows what the empire's weaknesses are - the irreconcilable contradiction between the aristocracy and the common people, and the empire's cruel exploitation of slaves - it is still not easy to find opportunities to bring down the empire.

First of all, this is a galactic empire with a population of hundreds of billions. Due to its size, it has extremely strong inertia.

Looking at the commotion outside, it turns out that almost all the anti-imperial forces outside the empire and within the country have gathered together. Catalyzed by the death of Count Yitou, who is suspected of being unreasonable, the current turbulent situation has emerged.

But it is far from enough to rely on this wave to trigger a nationwide revolutionary uprising.

People are dependent on their current lives.

No one takes desperate risks while still being able to survive;

No one is willing to sacrifice their own interests for a political slogan when the future is full of hope.

Of course, it cannot be so absolute. After all, there are many people who have been deceived by politicians.
