Douluo: Forced to become a villain, I started to save myself

There was a knock on the door.

Meng Shenji, who was formulating a training plan for the real elite soul masters in the academy, put down his pen: "Come in."

Meng Yuan pushed the door open and Meng Shenji said in surprise: "Yuan'er, why are you here?"

Logically speaking, Meng Yuan should be browsing the royal family's unique book in the royal family's library at this time.

"I came here with Brother Xue."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

Mengshenji nodded, then closed the plan and stood up.

Looking at his grandson, Meng Shenji suddenly felt a little dazed. Time passed so fast.

In the blink of an eye, Yuan'er has transformed from a child into a handsome young man.

Then Meng Shenji fell silent. He felt that he still cared too little about his grandson.

After Mengyuan went to Wuhun City when he was six years old, he also closed the door of death to attack the titled Douluo.

And after becoming Titled Douluo, they didn't spend much time together. Thinking about it carefully, this grandfather of his has really neglected his duty.

With a sigh, Meng Shenji sat on the sofa with a soft smile on his face: "Yuan'er, your mother wrote to me some time ago, have you ever--"

"Grandpa, the Star Luo Empire has been intensively preparing war supplies recently. At this time, it has even launched invasions against some small countries."

Mengyuan directly turned away the topic abruptly.

Meng Shenji was stunned for a moment, and then he calmly ignored the topic just now and followed Meng Yuan's words: "Yuan'er, where did you get this news?"

"This is the information from Wuhun Palace."

It just so happened that the fake prince was not around, so Mengyuan could come openly and openly carrying the banner of Wuhun Palace.

Meng Shenji frowned and said, "What is Xing Dou trying to do? Could it be that he wants to reignite the war! Without the help of Haotian Sect this time, where will their confidence come from?"

Looking for a job in his position, as the in-law of the current royal family and the chief of the worship group, Meng Shenji will naturally be considered by the empire.

He stood up suddenly, and then said: "Since it is information from Wuhun Palace, I have to go and tell His Majesty about it first."

At the same time, Tiandou Imperial City and the Imperial Palace.

Emperor Xueye's face was gloomy, and letters for help were laid out on the imperial desk in front of him.

The ministers, on the other hand, kept their noses and noses in mind, and no one dared to speak.

"My dear friends, don't you have anything to say? One principality, three princely states, and several affiliated small states in the empire were invaded by Xingluo at the same time. How should we respond?"

Unlike Emperor Xingluo's decision-making, the implementation of any policy in the Tiandou Empire requires discussion by a large team of civil servants.

Tiandou's strength mainly lies in its strong internal management capabilities.

The assistant minister said cautiously: "Your Majesty... To be honest, the empire has no suitable reason to intervene."

"The purpose of the Star Luo Empire is to find the missing prince. The so-called invasion is just a temporary armed blockade. Once the people are found, they will naturally retreat."

Emperor Xue Ye was furious and threw a memorial directly into his face: "If you find someone, you will retreat. Even the children on the road don't believe this reason. You think I am an idiot!"

Even if I don't want to send troops, you still have to choose a reason that can fool you!

Imperial Grand Marshal Ge Long also sarcastically said: "According to the Assistant Minister, if the missing prince is not found, will there be no need to withdraw the troops? Your Majesty, I think it is necessary to intervene in the actions of the Star Luo Empire."

There is no soldier who does not desire war.

The martial spirit of Yazhen also influenced the generalissimo, giving him a very aggressive nature. He is the person most eager to fight in this country.

The Minister of Agriculture poured cold water on him and said: "Intervention? My Grand Marshal, what is the empire going to do to intervene in Xingluo now? Are you counting on those honor guards?"

"Or are we going to spend a lot of money to hire the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect as mercenaries like last time? I think as long as Xingluo doesn't come over, let them go. After all, there will be no loss to our country."

The Minister of National Defense also stood up and advised: "First of all, Your Majesty, Xingluo calls their actions a special military operation. Everything is for the orderly inheritance of the throne, not a war."

"Secondly, there are now four titled Douluo in Xingluo. Even if the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect intervene, a large number of Soul Douluo and Soul Saints loyal to the empire will be sacrificed in the war, and the Spirit Palace The poaching behavior in recent years will further weaken the empire’s foundation.”

"When this war ends, our future will be incredibly weak."

Ge Long said angrily: "You say these things in front of big rights and wrongs!"

Not to be outdone, the Minister of Defense said: "The veteran is completely loyal to the empire. That's why we have to clarify these interests! What will we gain if we intervene in the war?"

"This will intensify the contradiction between the two empires and make these principalities, princes, and dependent countries completely become part of Star Luo. It may even directly provoke a real war between the two countries."

"It is not certain that Wuhun Palace will intervene this time. Even if they win, the empire will not gain anything except a huge price. These small countries obviously cannot pay the price of bringing the empire to its end. They should cultivate their health and recuperate now. "

Under the persuasion of the Minister of National Defense, Emperor Xueye quickly calmed down. After calculating the interests, Xueye said, "Ai Qing, you mean we don't do anything?"

He has already agreed with the idea of ​​the Minister of Defense in his heart, but now he needs someone to give him a step up. The emperor must never admit his mistakes and will only accept the appropriate advice from his ministers.

The Foreign Secretary stood up: "No, we have to do it. Let these countries know that Tiandou will support them."

Xue Ye Dadi narrowed his eyes and said, "Then what kind of support will we provide specifically?"

The Foreign Secretary glanced at the Defense Secretary and said: "Provide all support except help."

The defense secretary added: “And that’s for last.”

Ge Long snorted coldly and said, "Take it as if this thing doesn't exist?"

The Foreign Secretary shook his head: "No, generally when dealing with this kind of crisis, we usually deal with it in four stages."

The Minister of Defense said: "At this stage, the only people who come to Tiandou for help are ministers from various countries. Xingluo has blocked all information, and we can pretend that nothing happened."

"We can use what kind of help we can provide to the ministers of various countries to deal with the past."

The Foreign Secretary continued: "When the news that the principalities, principalities, and subject states are under the military administration of Star Luo spreads to the country, we can tell our citizens that this is a rumor."

The Minister of Defense continued: "After that, we will start the second phase of diplomacy. Tell our citizens that something may be happening now, but we don't know the exact news yet, and then urgently summon the ambassador of Xingluo."

"When citizens already know that the country under military control is not a rumor, we can say that the empire is considering rescue and wait for the public opinion atmosphere before entering the final stage."

The Foreign Secretary concluded: "We can say that maybe the empire can do something after knowing Xingluo's actions in advance. But now that Xingluo's goal has been achieved and there are no more aggressive actions, we have no reason to send troops to interfere. "

"Then we can warn Xingluo to protect the lives of the dukes, princes and kings of the subject countries. Otherwise, the empire will definitely fight back in the strongest possible terms. Then we can expel the Xingluo ambassador from the country to express the empire's stance."

The Minister of the Interior said to Emperor Xue Ye: "Your Majesty, this idea seems to be a good one. After this period of time passes, the citizens will understand that this is the best choice for the empire and themselves."

Emperor Xue Ye made the final decision: "That's it!"

There has been peace for a long time in these years, coupled with the weak military policy in order to suppress the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, the Tiandou Empire has lost the strength to start a head-on war with the Star Luo Empire.

Since Xing Luo used "special military operations" as the reason, there was no need for the Empire to take risks.

From now on, accelerating the internal accumulation of strength is the key that the empire must face up to.
