The villain queen eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and won't let me lie down?

But I always encounter frustrating situations, and I can't help but complain.

He thought, 'I'm just muttering a few words in my heart, that's okay, right?'

It's not like someone is constantly using mind-reading on me, is it?

So, on the surface, he was respectful and obedient, but his inner thoughts were very active.

It could even be said that he was unrestrained and overly enthusiastic.

For example, when the Eternal Night Empress asked how to make the seventeen kingdoms completely loyal, Roger felt it was a freebie.

Any middle school student from Dragon Country could answer perfectly.

Because we were born in a unified country that the Western world has never had!

The Eternal Night world's background is based on medieval Europe, and even the Empress, no matter how talented, doesn't understand Eastern wisdom.

【Standardize carriages, writing, ethics, and weights and measures, build a fast and convenient postal system, create a nationally consistent document system, and establish true centralized power!】

【To make the seventeen kingdoms completely loyal, the core is to create a unified cultural belief, keeping the language, writing, habits, and festivals consistent.】

【And clearly define the Green Vine Empire as the 'Celestial Empire,' with culture, goods, clothing, and tools... all respecting the Empire!】

【In addition, compile enlightenment textbooks based on Green Vine culture and the Empress's achievements, and enforce them. When the new generation of the seventeen kingdoms grows up, who wouldn't yearn for the Empire?】

【Given time and the right environment, without orders, the citizens of the seventeen kingdoms will voluntarily integrate with the Empire. This is cultural invasion!】

"The Green Vine Empire is the Celestial Empire? Make the seventeen kingdoms respect the Empire? Write my achievements into enlightenment textbooks?"

Listening to the concepts proposed by Roger, the Eternal Night Empress felt refreshed and had never heard of them before!

The people of the Empire are quite pragmatic.

Those who don't submit are either suppressed by force or bought off with money, both being straightforward approaches.

Angelina and Margaret's strategies changed back and forth, but they didn't go beyond these two tactics.

The Empress is also a violent person who believes that might makes right.

How would they understand what public opinion is, what controlling people's hearts is, or what cultural invasion is?

It's just that you can conquer the world on horseback, but you can't rule it on horseback.

Not to mention Eternal Night Year 3, even Eternal Night Year 13 when the story begins, the Empire hasn't solved the problem of the seventeen kingdoms' people being disloyal.

If this problem were solved, the Heavenly Bright Army wouldn't have developed so smoothly.

And Roger, with Eastern wisdom, starting from culture, revealed the key points that Qin used to lay the foundation for a unified empire.

Naturally, even the powerful Eternal Night Empress was astonished!

This is a collision of completely different thinking systems!

Many of her problems that she couldn't figure out suddenly became clear!

This is to cut off the traces of the past seventeen kingdoms from the root!

The Empress seemed to see the grand scene of the Green Vine Empire receiving tribute from all nations one day!

But there's a problem...

The method Roger mentioned is almost perfect and can lay the foundation for the Empire's eternal prosperity.

But the time it needs is only longer than Angelina's plan.

The Eternal Night Empress sighed regretfully:

"Unfortunately, even if we find such a good method, I'm afraid it won't take effect immediately. The Empire can't wait..."

"Your Majesty, you must be strong. Believe that the Empire can do it. There are always more solutions than problems...!"

Roger felt that the Empress was using him as a listening tree again, and even platitudes were not enough!

Lying down is good, but it's also uncomfortable when there's a cup that can't be filled when seeing stupid questions!

So he could only direct and act in a small theater in his heart:

【No way, even Blood Mom is sentimental and has times when she's not confident about the future?】

【The conflict between the Empire and the Gods is just beginning, and the turmoil in the seventeen kingdoms hasn't reached its peak. It shouldn't be difficult to solve this problem!】

【It's just that there's not enough time to create a unified world, but in this azure world, as long as you prove that you're doing better than the old country, that's enough, right?】

【Humans always have a filter for the past, valuing the past over the present. The solution is simple: directly recreate the memories of the old country for them. No comparison, no harm!】

【The Empire sends people to pretend to be the Restoration Army, and the slogan is to restore the old country without collecting taxes!】

【When the Restoration Army really comes, they collect heavy taxes, smash and loot everything, and even have the right of the first night... Heh, I guarantee the citizens of the seventeen kingdoms will vomit blood and open the city gates to welcome the Empire to rule!】

After eavesdropping on Roger's inner thoughts, the Eternal Night Empress couldn't help but slam the table and stand up:

"Lord Roger is right, there are indeed more solutions than problems!"

Pretend to be the Restoration Army? Promote no taxation?

This sounds outrageous. What does the Restoration Army eat if it doesn't collect taxes?

But people are always greedy. If someone makes a promise, someone will believe it.

When hope is shattered, it will be when those people hate their old country the most!

At that time, they will find... hey, the Empire is still good!

What a 'no comparison, no harm!'

The Eternal Night Empress has also experienced countless struggles. At this time, her mind opened up, and she stubbornly nested large and small interlocking schemes on the basis of "pretending to be the Restoration Army."

Smashing and looting for real to fill the Empire's economic deficit!

Using the Restoration Army to fish for law enforcement, gathering the seventeen kingdom's descendants who yearn for their old country the most and wiping them out in one fell swoop!

They can also use the name of the Restoration Army to demand various benefits from the Seven Gods Church!

"Ah? Your Majesty, have you thought of a solution?"

Roger was startled by the Eternal Night Empress's sudden rise.

Looking at her excited expression and bright eyes, he unconsciously looked away...

The Eternal Night Empress, who had regained her confidence, was as beautiful and dazzling as the bright moon on a clear night, unable to be looked at directly.

"Yes!"

The Eternal Night Empress nodded with a faint smile.

It's not that I thought of a solution, it's that I copied the answer from you, young man!

"Then congratulations, Your Majesty."

Roger's voice was sincere this time.

After all, he is in the Empire.

The stronger and more stable the Empire is, the safer he will be lying down.

It's a good thing for him if she can sort out her thoughts and solve the Empire's problems.

"Congratulations to you too. I must also thank Lord Roger for reminding me."

"I'm just a small listening tree, I didn't do..." Roger was halfway through his polite words when his eyes suddenly widened.

He saw the Eternal Night Empress resting her elbow on the table, leaning closer, and reaching out a small hand to wipe a stain from Roger's face.

Your Majesty, what, what do you mean? I can't bear it!

The Empress's powerful and exquisite face was only a fist away from him.

An unknown mysterious fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose, making him restless.

But even so close, he couldn't find any flaws on that small face.

Even more deadly, the Eternal Night Empress's long dress had a low-cut design!

The action of leaning over allowed Roger to see a full view of the magnificent scenery!

【Damn, Your Majesty has such a magnificent chest, no, the peaks are so white like snow...】

【What kind of trash are those cosplayers? They can't even compare to Blood Mom's little finger!】

【Ah, no way, Second Brother, hold on! I want to suppress the gun... Damn, I can't suppress it!】

【It's over, it's over, I'm so rude, I'm going to be cut off, right?】

The Eternal Night Empress received Roger's explosive inner voice and tried to change her concealing posture in a panic, but she didn't get angry. She just looked at Roger playfully.

This glance made him wonder if he was in heaven or hell.

Suddenly, she smiled triumphantly and stood up gracefully.

The wide sleeves of her robe blocked Roger's view.

When his vision returned, Roger only saw the faint light of the teleportation array.

The Empress's fragrant figure had disappeared.

Roger thought in a daze:

Could it be that Her Majesty is suddenly giving out benefits to praise me for being a good listening tree?

Is this an Empress or a succubus?

Even the real demon Margaret wouldn't be so good at seducing people, right?

Roger's heartbeat took a long time to return to normal.

The Empress's hand, running away after teasing him, is too irresponsible!

And...

What garbage is 'The Empress's Feast'!

What are those mediocre women? Blood Mom is the real beauty!

But Roger had a premonition that he would never forget the scenery he saw just now.

He must admit that Blood Mom...

Understands people's hearts very well.

Chapter 11: Margaret Wants to Share the Burden for Her Majesty!

Maple Spirit Moon Shadow Palace.

The Eternal Night Empress, who teleported back to her room, was still proud and strong, and her gestures exuded an aura of overlooking all living beings.

She was very happy that she had finally found a direction for the Empire to move forward.

But if you look closely, you will find a trace of panic in the Empress's eyes.

Running away after teasing him is a bit too stimulating...

She has killed countless people, but she really has no experience in love. At that time, she was just thinking about how to reward Roger for solving the Empire's dilemma again.

Money? Title? Weapons and equipment?

It seems that the kid doesn't care much about those.

Giving him a divine artifact, and he even scolded himself for being a jinx?

The Empress was puzzled and aggrieved.

Or, works of art?

When she thought of this word, the Empress inexplicably thought of the book 'The Empress's Feast' that Roger had read before.

It was clearly such a vulgar thing, but he didn't hesitate to burn his hand to save it...

He also said that those women had similar figures to her...

Tsk, tsk, tsk!

He really hasn't seen the world!

So the Eternal Night Empress suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Why not let him see the world?

The Eternal Night Empress recalled a play she had seen in her youth.
