Cosma Empire

Magus was not idle when Du Lin and the girl went out for a date in the afternoon. He chatted with some old friends about Du Lin.

"Are you sure you can make him move in the direction you want?" Baer, ​​who was sitting on an art sofa, yawned, the sudden exhaustion made him a little sleepy, and then he explained a little bit, and complained about himself by the way His private time was interrupted, "I should be taking a nap at this time..."

Magus smiled and said nothing. He and Barr have been old friends for many years. They have known each other since they were only in their teens. It is very rare that they have maintained a good relationship for so many years.

The friendship between nobles has never had a shelf life. The two families that have been friends for several generations may choose to go to war because of some distribution of benefits, or it may be that the two families that have been hostile for a long time have become new partners because of some aspects. . There are very few nobles who can maintain their friendship for decades like Magus and Barr.

Interest is the main theme in aristocratic society, friendship is not.

There are two other people in the room, one in their fifties and one in their sixties. They are all the same age as Magus, and they are basically nobles born in the same era. They are also looking at Magus.

Introducing Durin into the circle of nobles is what Magus has been working hard on. Although he is unwilling to admit it, it is undeniable that Durin is indeed very good as a young man. The key is that he does not have any resources. Self-made. Regardless of whether he used glorious methods in this process, at least he is up now. If he was given more resources at the beginning, would he be able to do better?

It is obvious that During is a young man who is very good at seizing opportunities and taking advantage of them.

On top of these foundations, he also has this huge ambition as his driving force.

As early as seven or eight months ago, after Durin rejected Magus' proposal to introduce him into the noble circle, Magus's first thought was to find Durin's fatal weakness, and then hang him on the execution platform . Once the current leadership of the empire who can control the situation, the politicians who are truly loyal to the empire grow old and die, there are not many successors of the new generation who can confront Du Lin head-on.

Du Lin's climate has begun to take shape, and if he is allowed to continue to develop for 20 or 30 years, when they are all old and dead, those people really may not be able to suppress Du Lin's ambitions.

The reason why he doesn't dare to move around now, he actually knows very well, he is still too young and weak to face this empire, showing his ambition indiscriminately will only make him leave the stage early.

But when he grows stronger,

When he was in his forties and fifties, when he had more powerful and unshakable power, he might really be able to do things that shocked the world, whether it was silently turning the empire into a toy in his palm , or gaining power through more brutal means, are all possible.

So Magus made a plan at that time, wait until the general election starts, take down Du Lin, and don't give him a chance to stand up. He will not leave a huge hidden danger to the successor of the empire, and then create some stupid plans like handing over the problem to future generations to solve and test their qualifications to test whether the successor is really qualified. This is not a qualified politician things that should be done.

Any danger should be snuffed out in the bud when it can be controlled. It is actually a sign of incompetence to leave the trouble to future generations, because they cannot do it themselves, and they have to excuse themselves. Of course, this is definitely not implying any Man, after all the world has entered into a great new age.

Maggs' evaluation of Du Lin is very pertinent. If this bastard is willing to play according to the rules of the game, he will become the leader of the new generation. As long as he is wholeheartedly for the prosperity of the empire, there may not be a day when he will hold the scepter in the future . But if this bastard is doing everything for his own selfish desires, let him go to hell!

Durin's timely change was also beyond Magus' expectations. He thought that Durin would realize the problems when the general election was approaching. He did not expect that he would discover these problems at least a year in advance, and then change took a stand.

This also shows Du Lin's excellence, he has a very keen sense of danger.

At this time, what Maggs was discussing with some old friends here was about whether to draw Durin into the noble circle. If they disagreed, Durin's plan would be over. Only when they all agreed, could Durin be able to Really step over that threshold.

He thought for a while, and said, "It shouldn't be a problem for me to live another ten years. As long as Durin doesn't do anything harmful to the interests of the empire during these ten years, he will be assimilated by us soon. Of course, in the We also need to make some changes in policy to make him recognize us."

"Among this group of young people, there are not many who can surpass Du Lin in political and personal abilities. We also need to consider another situation. If there is no Du Lin, whether our successors can secure the empire like us. security, to ensure the security of the current system?"

Magus's words are indeed very meaningful. The Yaoxing Empire has too many outstanding representative figures in their generation. It is because of their existence that the national power of the Yaoxing Empire has been continuously strengthened, and its status in the world has continued to increase. raise. Once this group of rulers, who can be said to be the most elite in a hundred or two hundred years, die, and the successors are not good enough, and it is difficult to even defend the city, what will happen to the empire?

We cannot maintain optimism about the future just because of the current situation. The international situation is constantly changing. Today, everyone must maintain an attitude of respect for the empire, and tomorrow someone may stand up and want to challenge the authority of the empire.

Coupled with the fact that there is a federation beside them, this group of small businessmen will never die if they want to destroy our empire. Once they find a chance, they will never show mercy. At that time, the empire will not have three or five people powerful enough to suppress the situation, and the situation will become very dangerous.

They have been glorious all their lives, and they must leave a guarantee for future generations and the future.

Of course, this is not to say that without Du Lin, it would be impossible at all. In the past so many years without Du Lin, wouldn’t every period be the same? But people always want to pursue the best, and Du Lin is a person with great potential . No one can ignore his short ten-year development process from scratch. He was only a half-year-old boy when he came to the city from the countryside, and now he has grown to the peak of his personal power. On the stage, he will definitely be able to have greater achievements.

Barr said something very disappointing at this time, "What if you die?"

Magus laughed dumbly, "No one can take care of this country and those young successors forever. Even God will die, let alone us. As for what the world will look like after we die, it has nothing to do with us. It’s too big. We gave them the best foundation, but they can’t grasp it. Even if the country is destroyed one day, they deserve it.”

What about the Guart Dynasty, which was so powerful that the whole world was trembling back then? The late king led ten heroes to sweep across the entire northern continent under the radiance of the gods. No one could resist the guarts. Countless temples would be burned, and countless alien races would be enslaved. The dynasty has made the best start. They have tried their best, but what can the successor do if they don't work hard?

Like the Ogdins, they had a nightmare start, but they won, they got their freedom from the Gualts, and then step by step they almost unified the entire continent, of course in the history books the Ogdins It unified the entire continent, and all the effects, including the alliance at the time, expressed submission, and some small countries also accepted the canonization of the royal family.

But now, so what?

"The times will always move forward, and there will be no turning back. We can only do the best we can now. As for the future, that's their business!"

After thinking about it for a long time, the other three gave an agreed answer. Dulin is indeed the young man with the most potential but also the most dangerous. Magus is confident that he can turn him around and change him from a person who is dangerous to the empire If they become the ones who will take risks to protect the empire in the future, then they don't need to worry about this issue.

Magus can do it, whether Dulin is suitable, and how to test the final result, that is the business of those people in the future. They left behind the strongest shields, but if these people turn their shields into the sharpest spears that kill themselves, it's not their fault.

There is nothing in this world that does not have risks and at the same time has huge benefits, and there has never been one.

With such a foundation, Du Lin has passed an invisible "examination". Perhaps he had some guesses, so he chose to use Magus as a breakthrough.

In fact, this is like a farce. The official propaganda of the empire is that the fate of the country is in the hands of every citizen, but sometimes the truth is always so unexpected. The fate of the empire is always in the hands of a very few people. How could something like power be in the hands of ignorant civilians?

When Maggs returned home at night, Du Lin had been waiting for him for a while. Du Lin was chatting with Maggs' wife about his cooking experience. A small book records some top-secret formulas that Du Lin said, and it seems that these things are intended to be used in practice.

He glanced at Du Lin with some headaches, the ghost knows if his wife will use those unreliable things to make some terrible food for him, he loves his wife very much, so it is almost impossible to refuse to taste the carefully prepared food For the dim sum, it was an absolute disaster!

He coughed lightly, "Follow me, let's chat for a while." Then he walked quickly to the study.
