What if I became the fiancée of the deadly enemy? !Wait online, hurry up!

When the big change organized by King reached Song Xiaokai's ears through a series of ways, Song Xiaokai sighed slightly, and was once again moved by this cheap father in his heart.

"If there was no misunderstanding between him and Alice, he would be a good father." Song Xiaokai sat on the bedside, looked at the message on the communicator, and said softly to Qin Xuan beside him.

"Yes, he loves Alice and their child very much." Qin Xuan put his arm around Song Xiaokai's shoulder and patted her gently.

Both he and Song Xiaokai are very aware of Ouyang Jing's ambitions - what Ouyang Jing has always coveted is the throne under Xiao Jinglong, if he hadn't worried that he might take on the matter with his son-in-law's power, he would not have done this kind of concession.

After all, he was still reluctant to embarrass his son.

However, Song Xiaokai also considered one thing: "Ah Xuan, have you ever thought about... becoming the ruler of the empire?"

There were only Song Xiaokai and Qin Xuan in the room. Even if such words were a bit outrageous, I was not afraid that a third person would hear them, and I was not afraid that someone would inform Xiao Jinglong.

There was a momentary change in Qin Xuan's eyes. It was rare that he hesitated in his thoughts.

Song Xiaokai looked at Qin Xuan's pensive expression, stretched out his hand, and rubbed the back of his head.

This action has a conciliatory meaning, and it was usually done by Qin Xuan to Song Xiaokai in the past.

Qin Xuan felt the meaning of Song Xiaokai's actions, the dark color in his eyes gradually dissipated, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, he finally made a decision.

"If it was in the past, maybe I just wanted to be a loyal general for the country, no matter what, I would have to guard this land." Qin Xuan calmly said what he had thought.

"What about now?" Song Xiaokai raised his eyebrows.

"Now?" Qin Xuan laughed self-deprecatingly, "I have lived for decades, and I didn't realize until now that protecting the country is different from protecting the emperor. If the emperor is not benevolent, I really don't need to sacrifice my life for this dynasty. "

"Yes, you are enlightened." Song Xiaokai nodded, "But...that's how you thought when you left the political arena, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have resigned from all the positions in the empire."

"Yes, but at that time, I never thought of overthrowing the dynasty that our Qin family has been loyal to for more than 1000 years." Qin Xuan seemed to be caught in some kind of emotion.

Loyalty to the empire, this is almost a certain persistence and belief carved into the bones of every man in the Qin family before he officially became a soldier. They all hope that they can become a generation of famous generals like their ancestors.

This is an honor that belongs to the Qin family.

Therefore, even if he left the political arena because of his disappointment with the ruler, Qin Xuan never thought of betraying this precept of the Qin family. Unexpectedly, with the gradual changes in the internal and external situation of the empire, his mentality also began to change.

He didn't ask for much, as long as he protected his family. However, once the empire was completely chaotic, he, the former commander-in-chief of the empire, would definitely not be able to stay out of it.

No matter what kind of force it is, they will treat him as a thorn in the flesh, even if he is no longer loyal to the Xiao family.

After thinking about this point clearly, Qin Xuan gave up the original idea of ​​only defending but not attacking—rather than sitting here and waiting for the enemy to come to the door, it is better to make all preparations from now on.

If he really can only protect the people and things he cares about by being in the highest position, he doesn't mind fighting hard. What's more, what he needs to protect is not only Song Xiaokai and the others, but also those who follow him The subordinates who were born and died, and even left the political arena of the empire.This is a powerful force, if it cannot gain a foothold in the troubled times, it can only be annihilated.

"It seems that you have thought it through clearly, Ah Xuan." After listening to Qin Xuan's analysis, Song Xiaokai said with a smile.

"It's a pity that I couldn't give you and the children a stable life." Qin Xuan said to Song Xiaokai apologetically.

"Is there any way to do this, the world is like this, people are uncontrollable, not to mention..." Song Xiaokai raised his eyebrows, "Ah Xuan, have you forgotten that I was also a general? Am I still afraid of fighting?"

Qin Xuan's mood was completely relieved by Song Xiaokai's words, his thin lips curled up slightly, and he rubbed the top of Song Xiaokai's head fiercely, which caused Song Xiaokai's sharp eyes and annoyed stares.

----

Xiao Jinglong originally thought that this civil strife would be quelled soon like his father was in power. As a result, after batch after batch of anti-riot troops were dispatched, not only failed to quell the protests and riots that sprang up in various places , On the contrary, it completely angered the long-suppressed dissatisfaction and anger in the hearts of ordinary people.

Why did Xiao Jinglong send troops to suppress us?Can’t we all just want to live a more secure life?Look at the enactment of imperial laws, which one is protecting the interests of ordinary people?Working hard every day to earn a living, the money earned in a whole year is not enough for Xiao Jinglong and his ministers to have a big meal!

Forget it, those who were inspired by the Force and enlisted in the army are human beings, are they not human beings without "special abilities"?Only those who follow the two paths of military service and politics have the opportunity to become "high-level people", and those who work hard and work hard will be "low-level people" all their lives. Isn't this a joke!

The most unbearable thing for ordinary people is that the policies formulated by the empire are getting harsher every year, and the taxes are getting higher every year. Now, it is not just "unfair" that can describe their situation. 60% of people even have problems with food and clothing.

Xiao Jinglong found a high-sounding reason for raising taxes: the empire was going to fight the other four interstellar powers, so the treasury was empty, and more funds had to be invested in front-line wars.

Ordinary people in the empire just want to give Xiao Jinglong a "hehe", where did the taxes they paid before go?It has not been a year since the war started, and the "national treasury is empty." Who exactly emptied the national treasury.Look at those sons of Xiao Jinglong, and then look at those ministers under Xiao Jinglong, all of them are full of fat, like a pig. On the other hand, the people at the bottom of the empire have become skinny. .

In fact, what Xiao Jinglong didn't understand was that the reason why the funds he invested in the frontline battlefield was "eaten" so quickly was because many of his "confidantes" intercepted them halfway.

When Qin Xuan was still sitting in the position of the first commander of the empire, he had strict control over the flow of the army's funds, and Xiao Jinglong's ministers had no way to extend their hands into the army.

However, Qin Xuan and those capable subordinates are now being forced away by Xiao Jinglong, and the newly appointed imperial commander is a puppet-like figure who has no deterrent power to those ministers at all, just like a marionette, being pulled by others East, never west.

Xiao Jinglong also thought that he had finally found an "obedient" commander-in-chief, but this commander was too obedient, which meant he had no opinion of his own.

What's more, this puppet doesn't have much other abilities, but his ability to accept bribes is very strong. Not long after he took office, he has bulged his small coffers.

In Xiao Jinglong's desperation, two years passed slowly.

In the past two years, a lot of things have happened inside and outside the Mande Empire. The accumulation of these things is more than the sum of the past few decades. It is not an exaggeration to call the situation "changing".

First of all, the first commander-in-chief of the empire finally changed. He Yi rose up at the speed of a rocket. While being reused by Xiao Jinglong, he was also deeply trusted by Xiao Jinglong. They were all controlled by He Yi, but Xiao Jinglong foolishly thought that He Yi was loyal to him.

"You're a good kid. I'm relieved that the imperial army will be entrusted to you." Xiao Jinglong patted He Yi's shoulder and laughed, trusting those so-called "battle reports".

Xiao Jinglong didn't know that some of those battle reports were fake, and the people around him had been bribed by He Yi long ago, making Xiao Jinglong a "blind" and "deaf" sitting on the highest position in the empire. All the information he got It's all under He Yi's control, and He Yi won't let Xiao Jinglong know the information that Xiao Jinglong shouldn't know.

In fact, it is also strange that Xiao Jinglong never thought of leaving the main star of the empire to take a look. Even if he left the main star once, he would know how far the news he had learned was far from the real state of the empire.

The flames of war had long been burning inside and outside the empire, but Xiao Jinglong, as the ruler, knew nothing about it.

Secondly, Qin Xuan's first battle gym has also developed a certain scale. As ordinary people are gradually disappointed with the high-level empire, fewer and fewer people apply for the imperial military academy. They cast their eyes on other places, and Qin Xuan The Shizhan Martial Arts School led by him is undoubtedly the first choice of these students.

They don't want to work for the royal family, but they hope to protect this land.

Unlike the imperial army, the oath of admission to the Shizhan martial arts school does not include the content of loyalty to the royal family. Qin Xuan asked the students to follow their hearts and firmly remember why they want to learn martial arts and why they want to become soldiers—they protect What matters is not the royal family, but the land they love and the relatives on this land.

Moreover, Shizhan Martial Arts School not only recruits students who have inspired the Force, it also recruits ordinary people, and its scale gradually expands to various practical fields such as energy, electronics, machinery, optical brain, data, etc., like Li Huan Cao Ran, his lover, became the leader of the information and data discipline of Shizhan Wuguan.

Qin Xuan requires students not only to learn the knowledge at hand, but also to learn to "cooperate and help each other". A strong army lies not only in the strength of each soldier, but also in whether the people in charge of all aspects can form a team. Tacit understanding, the higher the degree of this tacit understanding, the stronger the power exerted during the war.

He Yi also thought about using Xiao Jinglong's hand to suppress the Shizhan Martial Arts Hall, but he failed. Qin Xuan successfully dispelled his calculations again and again, making him wish he could simply razed the Shizhan Martial Arts Hall to the ground.

If he could... obviously, he couldn't.

What made He Yi even more angry was that because the people were completely disappointed with Xiao Jinglong and his sons, even He Yi, a person who held a lot of power in the imperial political arena, was also "influenced".Even if he became the first commander of the empire, he could not occupy the position of "God of War" in the hearts of the people like Qin Xuan.

They felt that He Yi "worked his life" for Xiao Jinglong and safeguarded the royal family's interests.

Of course, this also depends on the fact that Shizhan Wuguan has always emphasized the difference between "loyalty to the royal family" and "loyalty to the empire", so that in many people's minds, the imperial army has become synonymous with "royal lackeys".

This made He Yi feel an indescribable grievance in his heart. The current situation is completely different from what he imagined at the beginning!It's a pity that he really couldn't find a way to reverse it for a while.

He Yi suffered from insomnia for three whole nights. After these three nights of deep thinking, a thought came to his mind: Is it really necessary for him to flirt with that trash sitting on the throne?If it continues, I'm afraid he will lose more support from the masses, right?

Why not be more straightforward, anyway, the imperial army is completely in your hands, isn't it?

The corner of He Yi's lips evoked a cold and calculating smile.
