Douluo: The First Empire
Chapter 37: Bitter but sweet again (Thanks to Xiao7tang for the reward)
Emperor Xueye, who was enjoying the beautiful scenery in the courtyard and relaxing, thought about the conversation just now.
Lu Yu has a more accurate judgment of the actual situation and is extremely ambitious. His target has always been the surrounding kingdoms and empires. Although he does not understand the finer details, with a little sharpening, he will be the sharpest edge of the Tiandou Empire.
Although Qinghe has only been handling government affairs for more than a month, he can still see some of his methods. After this experience, his methods will definitely become stronger.
But whether we can understand the true meaning of rights is still unknown. Blind killing and purging are not rights. Only pardon is the real right.
From the current point of view, Qinghe must understand this crucial point faster than Lu Yu.
Reason told him that Lu Yu was the best candidate, and only a domineering emperor could win in the ensuing turmoil.
But his selfish desires told him that Qinghe was the best candidate. Only extreme power and tactics could maintain the Tiandou Empire and always stand on the mainland.
In the end, he decided to choose Qinghe. He didn't want to gamble, and he didn't want to gamble, although he did play well against the Balak Kingdom before.
As a general, it is enough for Lu Yu to open up territory for Tiandou. The position of emperor should be left to Qinghe. The Tiandou Empire has the brightest future.
The bright future of the empire are discussing how to remove Emperor Xueye's power before he abdicates.
In the study room of Rensheng Palace, Qian Renxue and Lu Yu were discussing the two crucial lists.
After Lu Yu carefully read the two lists, he said thoughtfully:
"There are 119 people on the execution list, and 34 of them rely on money to buy positions. These are the easiest targets and the first to be eliminated."
"The list of candidate officials only has 56 people, so the idea of clearing out the useless people at once and replacing them with our own people will not work, and these people may not be very loyal."
Qian Renxue also understood this and continued:
"Then the key to the problem is how to win over the support of some senior officials in the DPRK and China, and how to cultivate his own confidants."
Lu Yu raised the corners of his mouth, smiled softly, and said mysteriously:
"Actually, both of these things can be considered the same thing."
"one thing?"
Picking up a cup of tea, Qian Renxue took a sip in a pretentious manner, but Qian Renxue's face turned slightly red. This was what she had just drank, and he took the wrong cup.
Unaware, Lu Yu put down the tea cup with a slight disgust. The tea specially provided by the Tiandou royal family was not that good. It was not as good as the flower and fruit tea.
After moistening his throat, Lu Yu said:
"The so-called loyalty means absolute trust, unreserved trust, and further broken down into certain expectations for you, and the desire for certain benefits that only you can bring them."
"Driven by interests, the most basic trust will be born. They are willing to do anything for you because of trust, or interests."
"And when you have the power to make them completely trust you and bring them benefits they never dreamed of, the originally fragile trust turns into indestructible loyalty."
"This can be referred to Tiandou Bank. Because the bank can bring them excess benefits, they trust the bank and are ultimately loyal to the bank."
Thinking of the Tiandou Bank where people lined up all the way, Qian Renxue gained a new understanding of people's profit-seeking nature.
"Then what benefits do I need to attract the loyalty of those people?"
Lu Yu shook his head and said softly:
"Sometimes the benefits don't just refer to visible benefits like the Golden Soul Coin, but there are many more important but invisible benefits."
"And everyone likes to invest and take risks. The casinos that are repeatedly banned are the most powerful proof. This kind of winning or losing regardless of status, and the joy of harvest deeply attracts them."
"And the biggest and most risky investment in the entire Tiandou Empire is the next Tiandou Emperor, so you are the biggest benefit."
“You just have to show your skills and give them a chance to invest, and they will flock to it.”
Lu Yu stopped talking and gave Qian Renxue time to think. Some things are only useful if they are understood.
After a while, Qian Renxue thought about the key and said with a solemn expression:
"So the emperor gave us this list for this purpose, but he only gave us the list of officials below the fifth rank, just to prevent me from showing my skills prematurely."
Wuhundian's pace is getting faster and faster. If I don't gain a firm foothold quickly, the power of the Tiandou Empire will eventually fall into the hands of Wuhundian.
"If I want to start cultivating my own power now, how should I do it?"
Lu Yu wanted to deliberately create this sense of crisis. Although Bibi Dong has not taken action against him yet, who can guarantee that this love-starved woman will not take action against him in the future?
Seeing that the time was ripe, Lu Yu said:
"Currently, the most suitable candidate to intimidate the court and show off his skills is none other than Cai Shouxu, who is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people."
"But Cai Shoufu is also the most difficult enemy. Although I have evidence that can give him a fatal blow, Emperor Xueye will not want him to fall."
"And the list we have may be his work, so now he is impeccable."
Qian Renxue hurriedly asked:
"So who can we choose now?"
"We can choose an enemy who is no less important and even more suitable. That is the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall of the Heaven Dou Empire, Salas."
Qian Renxue was even a little stunned when the name appeared.
Salas, the only platinum bishop of Wuhun Palace, was only inferior to the pope and elders. He was also the person in charge of the Tiandou Empire's latent plan. He was responsible for all the Wuhun Palace undercovers above the court.
Moreover, this person is extremely arrogant. Qian Renxue once ran into trouble as Xue Qinghe, and even Emperor Xue Ye dared to show his face.
If Salas is killed, then Wuhun Palace will definitely let the lurking undercovers switch to the prince's command. Even if they send another person to take over Salas's position, they dare not recruit too many people because the risk of exposure is too high.
This move really hit the seven inches above the Wuhun Palace. Qian Renxue had never thought of attacking one of her own, but she was a little excited at this moment.
But if you think about it carefully, this move is undoubtedly putting Lu Yu on the fire. He has already been assassinated by Wuhun Palace, and he chooses to kill a platinum bishop, which will inevitably lead to a fight to the death with Wuhun Palace.
But Lu Yu had already expected it. He held down Qian Renxue who was about to get up and said seriously:
"Don't worry, this is an action I have already prepared for, just to kill a little Salas, and Wuhundian will definitely not choose revenge this time."
Qian Renxue, who knew the strength of Wuhun Palace, would not allow Lu Yu to take such a big risk, so she immediately spoke up to stop his death-seeking behavior.
But Lu Yu pressed his index finger on Qian Renxue's lips and said in a delicate but firm voice:
"You are willing to poison the Third Prince for me, then I will kill the Platinum Bishop for your sake."
After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Qian Renxue to refuse. The tea they drank together at the table still radiated residual warmth, just like Qian Renxue's rapidly warming heart, which tasted bitter at first but then returned to sweetness.
