Quadruple split

at the same time

Phantom Town

Kunda Bohe, who had slept until the afternoon, slowly woke up from his deep sleep. It can be seen that His Highness the Prince has been a little too tired recently, whether it was the news of the death of the God of Law, the attitude of the Duke and the Marshal, or the testimony of the two armies of the empire. There was an indescribable weirdness about them all, and the decision of the royal brother William was completely incomprehensible to Kunda. Although the other party did give him a reason to convict Farah, Kunda always felt that that was not all...

He knew his brother, and he knew that William was not an emperor who was enthusiastic about opening up territories. Compared with those famous emperors throughout the ages, William Bohe did not seem to have such a scornful aura. Although he unknowingly increased the overall national strength of the Chauvin Empire several times, there are still many people who feel that His Majesty's actions are not perfect and that His Majesty's behavior is too conservative...

[But that is wrong, our emperor is very powerful! 】

Kunta raised the corners of his mouth proudly. He glanced down at the golden pendant with the thorn flower totem on his chest, and held it in his hand with great care. It was William's sixteenth birthday gift to him. , the ultimate magic prop created by Farah Ossis.

His brother was an excellent emperor, Kunta had always thought so.

As one of the only legitimate sons of the previous emperor, no one understood his brother better than Kunda, who seemed to be obsessed with business rather than royal ways.

William Boho was very self-aware, both of himself and of his empire.

The emperor knew that he was not a ruler who could lead the empire to great achievements in the northwest continent, and he also knew that Shavin was not a country strong enough to sweep Liuhe, let alone "unify the entire northwest and establish a great dynasty." It was a far-fetched dream. In fact, before William inherited the throne, Chauvin, who had never made full use of his advantages, had gradually declined.

It was he who supported those merchants who were scorned by most nobles against all opinions. It was he who single-handedly established the coastal commercial system that now brings huge fortunes to Chauvin every year. It was he who insisted on converting those merchants who were already too large to be considered reasonable. The military expansion expenditure turned into large cargo ships with no war function, which were leased to those businessmen without interest, and gave them a crazy price list to sell them to other continents.

So Chauvin had money.

A few years later, he began to reduce the bloated military system, leaving only a few core legions headed by the Knights of the Tsar's Sword and the Hurricane Mage Corps. He spent a lot of savings on construction and worship. In the end, Qian Cheng even This impressed the Pope of the Kaguya Sect, who finally announced after three days and three nights of communication with his goddess that the Kaguya Sect was willing to become the state religion of the Chauvin Empire, and built a second church in a religious territory designated by William alone. Kaguya Cathedral, of course, the latter paid for it...

But with the strong support of these clergy, the military strength of the Chauvin Empire suddenly rose to a higher level. Not only was it not weaker than before the disarmament, but it also received a large number of Kaguya priests, officiants, and knights, which shocked the surrounding territories, countries, and settlements. The strength is several times stronger than before.

Was this done with money?

Perhaps ninety out of a hundred people would think so, but Kunta, who was already famous as the 'Prince of Good-for-nothing' at that time, knew very well that because of the previous large-scale disarmament, after settling the accounts completely The conclusion is... not only did William not spend any money, he even saved a small sum!

After winning over the relatively influential Kaguya Sect in the Southwest Continent, William continued to implement the previous policies tepidly, constantly accumulating money, accumulating money, and accumulating money for the country.

Anyway, Chauvin has the two heroes of the empire, the Kaguya sect, and money, which is enough to intimidate most of the surrounding forces.

Whether it was the senior officials of the empire who initially felt that the emperor was not doing his job properly, or the civilians who had received real benefits in terms of life and taxes, they were all convinced by William.

The only thing that makes people feel that there is a flaw in the ointment is that the emperor who seems to be very keen on doing business seems to lack a little bit of ambition. As life becomes more and more prosperous, people also expect William to make great achievements and lead Chauvin to ascend the throne. A bigger stage.

But William disappointed many people. He had only one record of opening up the country in these years, and it was bought...

Today, the title Merchant King has gradually become a derogatory term. As mentioned before, William is more like a businessman than an emperor.

But Kunta knew that everything his brother did was right!

Chauvin has a limited population and insufficient foundation. Although it seems prosperous on the surface, there are still a lot of problems, and these problems cannot be solved overnight, or to be more accurate, these problems cannot be solved by the limited lifespan of an emperor. It can be solved.

There are more and more talents emerging in the country every year, but it only takes one large-scale battle to kill most of those young talents.

Galahad and Farah are both famous, but they are already old. Although the average lifespan of the strong is usually longer than that of ordinary people, as long as something unexpected happens, the empire's high-level combat power will be severely damaged immediately. .

You must know that a country that is also famous in the northwest continent has more than ten well-tempered legions and dozens of top experts, each of which is no less powerful than Galahad, and the youngest one Only less than thirty years old.

That is the foundation!

And the strongest man in the Chauvin Empire besides the Marshal and the God of Magic, Bart Garros, is just a great mage. Most of the other legions except the Knights of the Chauvin Sword and the Hurricane Mage Group have never even fought a serious battle. battle……

There's too much difference, really too much difference.

What's more, William knew very well that he was not a war-savvy monarch. If you asked him to enrich the treasury, that would be no problem, but William had little confidence in himself or the country when it came to competing for hegemony among the heroes.

Therefore, he steadily accumulated advantages for Chauvin, established an economic system, and vigorously cultivated new generations of talents. He also constantly poached from various places, hoping to build his own foundation for the Chauvin empire.

His duty is to pave the way for the empire, this is William's realization.

This was Kunda's realization to reduce worries and burdens as much as possible for his brother and completely marginalize himself from the aristocratic circle.

The former understands the latter, so he always hopes that his younger brother can have a space to display his talents, instead of being used as a source of conversation or a joke, especially when someone compares the two behind their backs.

The latter understands the former, so he only lets others see his inferior side and strives to become a mediocre person in the eyes of the world. In this way, even if too many people do not understand the deep meaning and original intention of his brother, they have no choice, otherwise if they are not careful, Let this 'waste prince' stand up, which is not as reliable as the merchant king.

If nothing unexpected happens, the two titles of 'Prince of Good-for-nothing' and 'King of Merchant' may accompany them throughout their lives, but accidents happen after all...

Disagreement also occurred!

Kunda couldn't understand William's approach. This was not because he was more emotional than his brother, nor because he was not in his position so he could not seek political advice. It was just that he simply believed that his brother would not compromise in this situation. people!

[If it were my brother, there would definitely be a better way! 】

Kunta always believed this, but William never told him anything.

In that case...

Kunta could only choose to cheer up. Although he believed that the emperor's silence must be for a reason, even if it was just in case, or just as a backup method, he felt that he should take action. .

"I suddenly became sentimental after I was safe." He smiled to himself, then walked out of his room slowly, and happened to bump into the dark elf girl who was about to knock on the door.

Kunta was distracted and waved his hand to this beautiful 'village girl', indicating that she could go to the house to clean up. However, he suddenly found that there was nothing in her hand, and her expression was a little gloomy, so he looked slightly confused. Asked: "Miss Jiawen?"

"I suggest that you and Mr. Luther leave this place immediately." Gawen said seriously the same words as yesterday: "It is not safe here, at least not as safe as your Highness thinks. If the cause of the death of His Excellency Farah Ossis is indeed Qi Qi, then all your actions may be completely controlled..."

"enough!"

Gawen's words were rudely interrupted.

"I don't know what Luther told you." Kunda looked at the beautiful girl with an elegant face in front of him angrily, and said solemnly: "But you are too self-righteous, woman!"

A person who is a prince does not need to be pointed out by a commoner, especially in his own territory.

And an excellent person who is always suppressing his talent will never think that a passerby's point of view is better than his own.

Perhaps even Kunta himself did not realize that he had suppressed his talents for many years and that his perception of himself was no longer objective.

Besides, no matter how objective he is, he doesn't think that an amnesiac dark elf girl is better than him in this situation.

Kangda had already analyzed and judged it, and felt that there was no problem in resting here for two days.

And the more people who suppress themselves normally and pretend to be crazy and stupid even though they are obviously capable, the more confident they will be when they get serious!

So he scolded Gawen of course, and then strode out to get some fresh air.

The latter showed a sad, bitter smile, and her blood-red eyes were full of self-mockery and confusion. This look did not look like herself at all, neither 'Jiawen' nor 'Bai Fujin'.

Of course, this was not because of a curse from a certain NPC, but something even worse and uglier.

Let’s temporarily go back in time to two hours ago…

Real time PM20:05

City S, [White Rose] Manor

"Miss, you don't plan to go online yet?" Ah Qing looked helplessly at her 'master' who was gently stirring the black tea, and couldn't help asking in a low voice: "Didn't you say yesterday that a big shot came from the game? ?”

Bai Fujin sighed softly, slowly picked up the fragrant cup of black tea in front of him and shook his head: "That's not important. Didn't I say it before? It's just a vacation. If you have something to do, you can go and play first. .”

"Hehe, I have nothing to do." Ah Qing smiled coquettishly, then walked up behind Bai Fujin and gently squeezed her shoulders: "So, what are you waiting for?"

"It's nothing, I'm just waiting for an answer." The latter answered calmly, but there was a daze in his eyes that didn't match his tone.

Ah Qing tilted her head curiously: "Miss, please be more specific~"

"The meeting over there ended six minutes ago."

Bai Fujin first answered the question, and then remained silent for a while before speaking softly: "I have helped my brother do everything I promised before, and if nothing else happens, he has now got what he wants. But until now, I have not received a single call from the Supreme Board of Directors, nor have I received a call from my grandfather, father, or him.”

"Miss..." Ah Qing's face suddenly darkened. She sighed softly and said softly, "Don't think so wildly."

The girl who looked like a person in a painting just slowly closed her eyes: "It's been seven minutes."

Ah Qing's eyes were a little red and she didn't say much.

Another two minutes of silence passed...

Bai Fujin patted the slightly trembling little hand on his shoulder and said softly: "You go and play first."

This time Ah Qing didn't say anything more, she just turned around and left quietly.

The girl, who was left alone on the terrace enjoying the cold wind, counted to five hundred and ninety-nine seconds in her mind and pressed the speed dial button on her phone.

Then after she listened to the RAP for seven or eight seconds, a male voice who sounded a little drunk said: "Ah, I'm sorry, my dear good sister, my drinking ability is really bad, I forgot to call you to tell you the good news. Okay, please forgive me, brother!"

"It's okay." There was a hint of imperceptible surprise in the girl's eyes, and she asked softly: "Brother, are you doing well over there?"

The man opposite smiled happily: "Of course, it's all thanks to you Fu Jin. My side is now stable. Even if we can't make any big achievements in the future, our position as the heir to the group will basically be inevitable!"

"That's great. Congratulations, brother." Bai Fujin smiled and blessed, and then took a deep breath. His voice, which seemed to be always tepid, actually seemed a little trembling: "So...brother, are you also like this?" We told grandpa, father and the elders as we agreed, and I helped you to some extent?"

The man named Bai Fuxi on the other side of the phone was happy at that time: "My dear sister, aren't you talking nonsense!"

The girl's fingers were trembling, and she slumped down on the chair with a slight loss of composure, and the corner of her mouth outlined an arc of happiness and satisfaction...

"Of course I didn't say anything to them!"

The world quickly lost color, and only the voice that sounded like a death knell in the ears continued to speak...

"I cut off all your resources, and also froze the accounts of three puppet companies where most of the staff only know you!"

…

"Haha, you are just too self-righteous, my dear sister."

…

"Hello? Are you still listening, hello?"
