I, Emperor Ursus!

So before that, in Nicholas' cognition, he had to put down the integration movement that most wanted to cause trouble in Ursas first. My heart is really uneasy, just like my co-tenant in the same house is gay, and I have to protect my chrysanthemum every day to prevent it from being exploded, which is really uncomfortable.

Get the Froststar and the Patriots first.

He wanted to touch Froststar's rabbit ears.

"...Ah woo!"

So, unable to bear the bumps of the car on the road, he yawned, and Nicholas couldn't help feeling sleepy. He still couldn't get rid of the bad habit of motion sickness, and he felt dizzy and fell asleep when he got in the car.

"Does Your Majesty want to sleep? If you don't mind, just lie on Chuxue's lap, Chuxue is fine~"

Sitting next to Nicholas and looking at his sleepy appearance, the smile on his face was a little bit more, Chuxue's accommodating charm blinked and said softly, the only thing in the eyes of Nicholas was There is tenderness in the sense of a girl, and every word and deed highlights her consideration for Nicholas.

"Then I'm welcome~"

Nicholas didn't refuse, he said leisurely, and lay sideways on Chuxue's knees without hesitation, a burst of tangy fragrance clearly melted into Nicholas' nose in an instant, it was undoubtedly the girl's natural body odor, Nikolai had smelled it once before, and his memory was still fresh.

"Chuxue's legs are so soft, I like them so much~"

At the same time, with a satisfied smile on his face, Nicholas shook his head lightly and rubbed mischievously on Chuxue's knees a few times, raised his eyes to look up at the girl's elegant face, and raised a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, which made the girl hesitate. Ruo Ruo's intimate girlfriend-like eyes suddenly shone with a bit of shame, and her fair and pretty face was stained with a faint blush.

Although the superficial relationship is far closer than the girlfriend, but in actual relationship, the relationship between the two has just reached the stage of a couple. In a real sense, they revealed their feelings to each other yesterday, and they are also willing to communicate emotionally.

Compared with the skin-to-skin kiss in the bathroom the day before yesterday, it was nothing at all.

"Your Majesty, don't move around...it's a bit itchy."

Chuxue shyly pursed her lips and said, "Don't actually let Nicholas take advantage of his cheap actions. On the contrary, seeing Nicholas' enjoyment expression made me feel a little happy in my heart. A faint itching in the legs is a bit uncomfortable.

"Well, listen to you, Chuxue~"

Nicholas responded with a smile, without being too embarrassing. Chuxue stopped shaking her head tactfully, twisted her body slightly and lay sideways on the girl's lap, enjoying the fragrance from the girl's body and the softness of her skin. Close it His eyes and the expression on his face were very satisfied and comfortable.

"Chuxue, can I ask you a question?"

From the beginning to the end, he always referred to himself as 'I'. After confirming his friendship with Chuxue, Nicholas and Chuxue never used the title of 'Zhen' when talking with Chuxue. He treated his loved ones with sincerity. It is impossible to regard Chuxue as a concubine who is already inferior to her in status.

I hope that Chuxue can treat him with a normal heart, and also hope that Chuxue can treat him as a man who can be relied on anytime and anywhere.

Instead of Yinhui, he becomes the existence that protects Chuxue, guarding Chuxue forever until he dies.

"Your Majesty, please ask, Chuxue is listening."

The girl softly raised the corners of her red lips, and her slender white hands slightly and considerately brushed away the messy hair on the side of Nicholas' head, hoping that Nicholas could lie down more comfortably.

"...If I accept other women as concubines, will you have any objection?"

Immediately, Nicholas opened his lips and asked this question bluntly. It was indeed a very sensitive question in a certain way, which caused Chuxue's hands shaking Nicholas's hair to tremble subconsciously.

"Is Your Majesty concerned about Chuxue's mood?" The girl didn't choose to answer at the first moment, her voice was still as sweet as before, and she continued to stroke Nicholas' hair lightly.

"Well, I care because I like you."

And admitting this without hesitation, Nicholas answered Chuxue's rhetorical question, his voice was inexplicably heavy even though his tone was soft, full of personal determination, without any concealment for the girl.

"If you have an opinion, I..."

It was precisely because of Chuxue’s mood that he asked questions about the harem. When he thought of Lin Dong’s confession, Nicholas felt uneasy. If there was any opportunity for Lin Dong to say goodbye to him completely, Nicholas didn’t know what to do. How to deal with it, Lin Dong's age is one thing, and being brought into the palace is another, and the latter is closely related to Chu Xue.

That's not to say whether he accepts Lin Dong's feelings, but if he really wants to accept Lin Dong's adulthood and marries him, Nicholas doesn't know whether Lin Dong can get along well with Chu Xue in the palace. How many concubines have there been throughout the ages? Even if he reformed the harem system and gave concubines more freedom, whether this would really ensure that there would be no palace fights in the palace, Nicholas couldn't say for sure.

No, the harem is peaceful, and they can live in peace of mind.

Yes, there must be murder among the harem, he dare not imagine.

He didn't dare to imagine the day when the girl he liked would become a 'crazy person', and he didn't dare to imagine the day when his offspring would die in an 'accident'. If this really happened, he would rather cut off all relationships and marry only Chuxue.

He has never been able to be ruthless, and he is ruthless to these characters in "Tomorrow's Ark".

Not even Nikolai himself knew why.

"It's okay, Your Majesty, Chuxue won't have any objections..." Then, the girl quickly gave Nicholas a reply, her voice was gentle and natural, without the slightest bit of nervousness or shame, her reaction was far more indifferent than Nicholas imagined It seems that there have been considerations in this regard before.

"Your Majesty is a very charming person. When Chuxue met His Majesty, she gradually fell in love with His Majesty through the accumulated contacts. Chuxue believes that there will definitely be women who like you as much. With His Majesty's personality, in the future, she will fall in love with His Majesty." Chuxue is definitely not the only one of the opposite sex, and if His Majesty also meets a woman he likes one day, wouldn't Chuxue's answer put more burden on His Majesty?"

These words one after another touched Nicholas' heart even more. He realized that the focus of the girl's thinking was not his own feelings, but his feelings. She only cared about whether her answer would embarrass him, and she was thinking about it with him as the center. .

At this moment, Nicholas was deeply moved, and he was more determined to marry Chuxue when the reform was completed. He met such a pure and kind woman in the world of Terra, and formed a good relationship with him. If he did not marry him, he would definitely regret it. For the rest of his life, it is enough to admit his mistake with Yin Hui when the engagement is made, and when the two are happy, Yin Hui must have nothing to say.

"If it's possible, Chuxue hopes that His Majesty can still be more restrained. If you really want to concubine and accept five concubines, it should be enough. If you want five, His Majesty should be satisfied..."

And speaking of this, the girl's voice is inadvertently much softer, it's impossible to really not care at all, it's just that she doesn't want too many people in Nicholas' harem. It was Falin who confirmed these 5 numbers. She didn't want the twenty or so women in the emperor's harem to get together every day and couldn't get along.

To a certain extent, Chuxue learned from Yesnina that the policy of "advance as retreat" is absolutely impossible to kill a man's fickle heart with a stick. After all, men are naturally natural and like alchemy. If the emperor really wants to reboot, it is better to stop It is not reliable to lose its bear roots, it is better to find a few more concubines to satisfy the emperor.

"…what?"

Little did he know that Nicholas, who was listening to his ears, was slightly taken aback. He just wanted to marry Ling Dong as his concubine. Why did Chuxue suddenly increase by four?It made him very thoughtful, one for Lindong, one for Kelsey, and he will find two more as smart and witty as Kelsey, and then he won’t worry about cutting his head off, he just needs to lie on the bed and spend his days leisurely Wouldn't it be flattering and refreshing.

The other five girls, Nicholas, also expressed that they are not false at all. One day counts and there are two days left to be free to engage in multiplayer sports. He is also very fond of all of them. When you go to Kelsey, you don't have to worry about not being able to satisfy the man's sexual interest. His brother is already hungry and thirsty!

And he doesn't have any strange sexual fetishes. Nicholas is sure that the five concubines will never have any aversion to bed affairs. Thinking about Hou Jin and Tang Dynasty, many emperors actually had the habit of "horse shock". It's really Ma B who has nothing to say, so if he doesn't chop the dragon root and be kicked off by the horse, the cartilage of Xiong Gen will be kicked crooked by him. I really don't know what kind of mentality those concubines have to be favored by the emperor.

"Yeah, only five, only five."

Nicholas tried his best to suppress the ecstatic response in his heart, and he had already considered the other two most suitable candidates in his mind.

"Also, Chuxue, thank you for being so considerate~"

Then, he turned his head and opened his eyes to look at Chuxue's pupils, and raised his palm to lovingly caress Chuxue's white and tender cheeks. Nicholas smiled slightly, and slowly moved towards Chuxue.

"Don't worry, Chuxue, no matter how much I marry, I will always love you, and it will never change in my life~"

Kissing Chuxue's red lips at the end, it was also Nicholas' reply to the girl, expressing his love for the girl in a straightforward way, wanting the girl to feel at ease, prying open the girl's silver teeth easily is to attack, regardless of Seeing the girl who suddenly widened her eyes pressed her down and kissed her fiercely, the coquettish moans and the man's heavy exhalation were mixed together, filled with endless affection for each other.

The imperial army who was only struggling to drive, swallowed a mouthful of saliva listening to the panting of a man and a woman behind, but did not dare to look behind, and could only imagine whether Nicholas was playing with Chuxue behind the car, but The one that couples in the new era like to play, turns out to be Ma Zhen.

[Or else, find someone to change shift next time...]

The forbidden army thought bitterly.

B, his pants moved.

...

In Casimir, the neighboring country of Ursus, in the splendid palace, a group of knights in armor and ministers in uniforms are fighting in two rows, and their big eyes are staring at each other. It is an official of Casimir, but the atmosphere between the two parties can already be described as incompatible with each other, and swords were at war at one point.

"My respected king, we really can't increase the farm tax in Casimir! It is precisely because we collect less tax from farmers that the farmers now have a little extra savings to spend the day. Once the farm tax is increased Come down, if there is any drought and the farmer has no harvest, we will definitely have a large number of refugees in Casimir, and then there may be chaos in Casimir!"

Kneeling on one knee at the center of the red seat in the palace is a knight. The silver-white and solid armor he is wearing is the equipment worn by Casimir's highest-level knight, the Marquis. He said earnestly with anxiety on his face, Carol, one of the leaders of Casimir's conservative knights, is persuading King Casimir Wladyswar to stop the agricultural tax plan proposed this morning.

"King, I don't think it's right to stop the agricultural tax!"

As a result, there was immediate opposition from a bureaucrat among the civil servants. He knelt down on one knee and said to Wadeswa. .

"Marquis Carol said that the lack of food will cause drought. I think it is purely unfounded. Not to mention that we have a certain amount of food in the treasury. When there is a shortage of food, we can buy it from neighboring countries such as the Ursus Empire. , by increasing the agricultural tax, we can benefit the merchants with more funds, and it is the safest choice to feed back to the farmers when the business prospers.”

The words satirized Carol intentionally or unintentionally. He was politically hostile to Carol, and the situation in Casimir's current political arena is exactly the same. It represents the capitalists and the privileged class, while the old-fashioned knights are more for the country. Everyone can stick to the knight's principles and be loyal to the king and the country.

Originally, under the suppression of Ursus, Casimir's conservative knights were not even qualified to join the political arena, and the entire dynasty was controlled by civil servants. Under the balance, Casimir's court can only introduce Casimir's conservative knights who still have a certain strength to contend with the Unmanned League.

The original intention was to take advantage of the loyalty of Casimir's old-fashioned knights, but the civil servants still underestimated the abilities of the knights. Instead, they made it self-defeating to let the knights win the favor of Emperor Casimir by attacking the Unarmored League, and they have gained a certain voice in the government. .

No, seeing Carroll disturbing their plan, many civil servants in the court hated it. It used to be a small matter, but this time it was a big matter in the eyes of the civil servants. The most fundamental thing was to attack the knights. The faction's prestige among the people felt that it was time to restrain the strength of the Casimir Cavaliers and prevent the Casimir's conservative Cavaliers from stepping on their heads.

Although it is said that there is Nicholas' promotion, which is to take advantage of the current situation of the contradiction between the Casimir bureaucrats and the Cavaliers to donate a lot of money to a group of civil servants, and these civil servants will fan the flames to attract like-minded people, which eventually led to the current Carroll The situation of confrontation with Sisla, on the surface, is to persuade, but in fact it is a mutual struggle. It is the bureaucratic initiative to attack the Casimir Cavaliers.

"Officer Sisla, what do you mean by that?"

Carol retorted coldly, since he is one of the leaders of the conservative faction, naturally he will not get angry easily.

"If we don't put our Casimir's food on ourselves, but entrust it to foreign countries, isn't this just letting foreigners hold our lifeline? Businessmen can feed back to farmers, but that also takes time, and whoever we suffer from the drought It is impossible to predict that our country’s treasury will not increase at that time, and drought will occur again. May I ask what we Casimir should do at that time, have you considered this point?”

How can they not be aware of Sisla's intentions, but it is precisely for this reason that they have to argue. In the psychology of Casimir's old-fashioned knights, the king is the supreme existence that leads Casimir, and Fang Qian is also the leader in name. People who are interested in Casimir only need to impress the king. In terms of eloquence, Carol is confident that he will not lose to Sisla.

"Why didn't I think about this, Duke Carroll, as you said, we can't predict when the drought will happen, but we can't predict when the business will prosper, so when we increase the agricultural tax, we can use The funds from the national treasury are used to buy farmers’ grain and grass, and when the disaster strikes, we can use this batch of grain for free for disaster relief, isn’t this not in line with Duke Carroll’s expectations?”

Sisla confronted each other and said coldly that attacking Carol by paying money from the treasury also had its own intentions.

"The treasury pays? Sir Sisla, don't forget that our treasury is currently empty. How can we still pay for food? Instead of doing this, we should increase the commercial tax to fill the treasury first, and wait until the treasury is full. If we increase the agricultural tax, don’t we have to worry about some surprises!?”

Undoubtedly, Carol, who heard about it, burned into anger. He glared at Sisla angrily. Well, is this still wanting to be greedy for farmers' money and use the treasury to buy food?There are countless waters that can be manipulated in it, and Carroll can guess that Sisla and other bureaucrats will definitely be greedy.

"Also increase the commercial tax? Duke Carroll, have you forgotten what is the tax that pays us the most in Casimir now? It is the commercial tax! And the agricultural tax? How much does it add to the treasury, so that the business group is more Favorable development is the last word, if it can bring prosperity to Casimir's business, it doesn't matter if farmers sacrifice a little interest!"

Sisla immediately retorted, and glared at Carol angrily. Seeing that Carol turned the topic to commercial taxation, his heart also became angry. A mere knight dared to be so arrogant. At that time, no civil servants allowed him to enter the palace. , is not a fart.

"You two, shut up!"

Then, just when Karol and Sisla were still talking to each other, Lermontov, an important minister accompanying King Casimir Wladyswald, interrupted their speech.

"What is it like to quarrel on the palace? Have you forgotten the rules of the palace? It's a provocation to the king!?"

He cleverly borrowed the authority of Wladyswar to tell the two to shut up with one word. At the same time, when he heard Lermontov's speech, Wladyswar, who had been watching the two people making noise, looked at Lermont. The more Tov's eyes became more appreciative, it was worthy of his loyalty to follow him in the first place, just for the sake of his authority.

"It's okay, I don't mind, tell me, how should I deal with the agricultural tax that Marquis Carol and Minister Sisla are arguing about?"

It's a pity that what Wladyswald didn't know was that Lermontov was in the middle of his arms. After staying with the emperor for so long, he didn't know that Wladyswald was a waste who couldn't make decisions, and didn't even have the right to make decisions. Look for him, listen to his opinion on everything.

"King, I think what Minister Sisla said is right." Then, without thinking, Lermontov bowed and replied firmly on the side of the civil servant.

"When our Casimir treasury is empty, what we want to deal with the most is how to enrich the treasury. Besides, only when the treasury is full can Casimir be rich and strong. It is true that farmers should give some benefits, and we will not treat them badly. When Casimir When Mir is stable, if His Majesty bestows favors on you, they will definitely love you, the king, so how can they cause Kasimir to fall into turmoil?"

A leader who is a bureaucracy in itself, witnessing the people under his command weakening the influence of the Cavaliers and ignoring it, naturally has to step up his efforts and add fuel to the flames.

"Hahaha! Well said, well said! Let's do this, raise the agricultural tax, use the treasury to buy food, and give back to the farmers when my Casimir business is prosperous, and show my kindness!"

Wladysva, who heard it, couldn't help laughing out loud. He felt that what Lermontov said was reasonable, and he couldn't find any faults in what Lermontov said. He smiled on the spot when he heard that the people loved him. This effect is what I want.

"King, I don't think it's appropriate to let the treasury buy food! If the king doesn't mind, please ask His Majesty the king to look at some things I have collected recently. You will be interested in it!"

However, just as Wladyswar was about to announce the end of today's political discussion, a knight suddenly stepped forward from the crowd and knelt down, holding an envelope with unknown records in his hand, which made Wladyswar feel extremely Unhappy, Carol bowed his head respectfully from beginning to end and remained silent, as if he had already known that there would be a knight appearing at this critical juncture.

"Lermontov, do you think it's true?"

Immediately afterwards, Vatiswar impatiently took the envelope from the knight handed over by the guard, browsed it, opened his eyes wide at the first glance, was shocked by the contents of the letter, and handed the letter to his side Lermontov, who was in a cloud, asked in a deep voice, and Leto Montfort, who had also witnessed the content of the letter, jumped in fright, and a few drops of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.

Because in Lermontov's eyes, what he saw now was the evidence of some corrupt treasury officials accepting bribes. He didn't expect it to be grasped by the knights, and he openly handed it to Wladyswar.

The most important thing is that Lermontov still doesn't know whether the Cavaliers have any other evidence of their bureaucratic corruption. Isn't this just for him to see?If he insists on encouraging Wladyswar to increase the agricultural tax, the Knights may give more evidence. At that time, Vladyswar will definitely have doubts about him. A situation that Montov did not want to see.

The knights are threatening him! ?

Lermontov quietly clenched his palms furiously, and looked at the Cavaliers in the audience with eyes full of annoyance. Now that the Cavaliers have dared to disobey him before they came to power for a year, they are used to everyone's disobedience. Listening to him, how could Lermontov bear this tone, his face was burning like a slap in the face.

"King, I think that the report letter may be true. There must be corrupt people among the officials of the treasury. Your Majesty just entrusts me to do it all. I will definitely punish these people without mercy."

But he didn't get dazzled by his anger and quickly calmed down, Lermontov whispered in the ear of the undecided Wladyswar, the first thing to do is to dispel Wladyswar's doubts, and by the way There is no proof of these people's death, which saves Wladyswar from messing around, and also prevents the knights from searching for clues about his corruption.
