Become the Archbishop from Douluo

Two days later.

As the capital of an empire, the climate in Tiandou City has always been very suitable. Although it is still the twelfth lunar month of winter, there is only light snow falling in the sky, leaving a thin layer on the ground, and the weather is not very cold.

This kind of weather is excellent. If you can light a heater in the house and read a book lazily on a recliner, it will undoubtedly be a wonderful thing.

Xue Qinghe is enjoying such a wonderful time. He has just finished handling political affairs for half a day and enjoys half a moment of leisure during this lunch break. This is probably the only time in the day when he does not have to worry about being disturbed by other people.

[In other words, it is currently the best for reading and listening to books. Change the source and install the latest version. 】

However, today, someone came to disturb his leisure.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince! An urgent report from the Northern Fortress! Please take a look." A knight in armor rushed in hurriedly, knelt down on one knee in front of his recliner, and presented a document.

Xue Qinghe was taking a nap when he was suddenly interrupted. He was not angry at all. He just stood up, took the document bag from his hand, and said helplessly: "Lin Yun, how many times have you told me that to be my knight commander, you must have

He's magnanimous and has a palace, but he's always so arrogant."

Since joining the group in Star Dou Town, she has naturally replaced the original knight commander, and along with it, she has also changed the blood of the entire knight order. Now, the one hundred people under her are basically civilian geniuses, promoted from the bottom.

.

For the traditional aristocratic class, this is undoubtedly a bad signal. Therefore, as the prince, he is not sought after by the nobility. On the contrary, the fourth prince Xue Beng is a waste, but he gets along very well with the aristocracy, so many

The nobles are all making Xue Qinghe uncomfortable, hoping to pull Xue Qinghe into the water and let Xue Beng, a good-for-nothing loser, take over.

Xue Ye is not a fool, he knows all these things clearly, so he chose to give Xue Qinghe more rights, and at the same time put him under more pressure. It seems that he is preparing to train him in various aspects in this way.

Find a balance among classes, instead of blindly taking care of the common people for the sake of a simple dream of a wise king.

Almost everyone understands this truth, so most of the knights promoted by Xue Qinghe are extremely loyal and willing to die.

Therefore, Lin Yun did not dare to refute Xue Qinghe's words. He just said in a low voice: "Sorry, Your Highness, the situation is urgent. I'm afraid it won't be long before Your Majesty has to convene a meeting to discuss the matter."

"Okay, let's go down." Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe knew that the matter had reached a very serious level, so he dismissed Lin Yun, took out a few pieces of letter paper from the document bag, and began to look at it.

Soon, her brows furrowed, and then she took a long breath and murmured helplessly: "Sister Xiyue... you really gave me a lot of trouble.

..”

Seeing this, Xue Qinghe did not dare to neglect, quickly put on his clothes, and without even having time to hold an umbrella, he called an aide and headed to the palace.

When Xue Qinghe came to the main hall of the palace, people from various factions had already arrived here. Almost all civil servants and generals were here. Xue Qinghe was almost the last one to arrive.

"His Royal Highness." When Xue Qinghe walked into the main hall, the crowd that was whispering suddenly stopped, and then they all saluted. As for how much sincerity there is in this, it is not yet known...

Emperor Xueye was sitting on his throne at this time, listening to Leng Xiyue's enthronement speech, with a gloomy expression on his face - this was rarely seen on the face of this king who was famous for his kindness.

"I, Leng Xiyue, am here to announce to the whole world that the northern province will be completely independent and will be known as the Kyushu Empire..."

"I hope that my people will be far superior to other empires in all aspects and stand proudly on the top of the continent..."

"We are confident that any invader will be buried on our soil. We will never negotiate with an uncivilized scum like the Star Luo Empire..."

These words also reached the ears of everyone present, and the crowd subtly divided into two groups. Many people were already aware of what was going to happen next, so they first went to gather with people who shared the same goals with them. After a while,

Even if they really quarreled, it would be temporary.

organization.

Although the voice in this speech was very childish, the words were extremely stern and firm. In the eyes of Tiandou people like them, these external words undoubtedly revealed three signals.

First, Tiandou will never be able to return to the northern province through conventional means in his lifetime.

Secondly, this new Kyushu Empire is very ambitious and even wants to develop to the top of the continent. However, the existing territory is obviously unable to support this emerging empire to accomplish such a feat. So, this represents one thing, their tendency to expand.

It's extremely serious, and you might get a call at some point.

Of course, this will not actually happen. If Tiandou and Xingluo are compared to agricultural countries, then the Kyushu Empire is preparing to become an industrial country. This span can no longer be measured simply by territorial area, not to mention the current situation.

Some territories are already relatively bloated, and their products are extremely rich. Even if they develop for decades, they may not reach the standard that requires expansion. Rushing to invade Tiandou and occupy these non-core territories will be a stupid thing that will cause endless troubles.

But from the perspective of the powerful people in the Tiandou Empire, this indeed shows a warlike tendency.

The third one shows their thoughts and confidence. It sounds like they still intend to have friendly exchanges with the Tiandou Empire and fight against Xingluo, but this signal that sounds like a symbol of peace sounds somewhat conflicting with the second one.

No matter what, this means that the original Northern Province has nothing to do with Tiandou and is no longer part of Tiandou. This is a huge blow to the majesty of the empire. At the same time, the original Governor's Mansion can provide them with these

The interests of the nobles will also disappear. In this slave trade chain, many nobles have benefited from it. Even the royal family has a part of their income from this. However, Xue Ye deliberately pretends that he does not know the source of the money and spends it with peace of mind.

Then, the question arises: when dealing with this new empire, should we advocate war or peace?

After listening to Leng Xiyue's speech, Emperor Xueye silently glanced at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty below, and then said: "Everyone, I think you have heard that our indifference to the situation in the northern province led to today's results. Originally loyal

The northern province of the empire suddenly split off. I hope you can come up with a proper plan to resolve this matter."

They were not unaware of the separatist situation in the northern provinces in the past two years. They also held discussions on this at that time, and finally came to the conclusion that there was no need to interfere. After the strength of the Governor's Mansion was depleted, the empire could gain traction in trade there.

More initiative.

After all, 'loyalty,' as long as it's fun...

Ye Hua's heart is clear
