When the Juggernaut Comes to the Second Dimension Chapter 357
"Speaking of it... why did you kill a lot of loyal ministers sent by the minister in the north and west of the empire? Like the minister and Bude said, the generals of the empire cannot interfere in politics. You... have meddled in politics, right?"
"Yeah, but that's a last resort. If we don't practice militarized management, I'm afraid that many people will die of famine in the north and west that have been hit hard by the war, and there will even be robbers everywhere, and there will be more robbers than inside the empire." A large-scale rebellion?"
Yong Ye's indifferent rebuttal made the little emperor stunned for a moment, and then looked at the minister standing behind him who was eating meat.
"Hey, Minister, he said that it would be worse if he didn't do that. It's different from what you said. Is it true?"
"this……"
The taciturn war maniac in Yong Ye's impression was unexpectedly able to refute so well, which made the minister stunned for a while, and then imagined calling Yong Ye to the imperial capital as originally planned, and then tricked the little emperor into letting Bu Germany mobilized the guards to execute.
But at this time, Bude, who was still dissatisfied with Yongye before, took the initiative to act as the executioner in his plan. After all, he was not afraid of the turmoil in the northern border, and even the whole country that took five years to create was in turmoil. Even though they are far away, they are still messing around, but Bude has no way to mess around like him. Bude knows that the northern border cannot be messed up easily, otherwise the country will really fall into extreme chaos.
"There is indeed such a possibility, Your Majesty, if not, there may be large-scale turmoil."
"Since Bude said so..."
The little emperor who trusted Bude, but also trusted the minister, his eyes wandered for a while, but looked at the minister again.
"Minister, what should I do?"
"...General Yong Ye fought in the South and the North, and fought a total of eight years of war. Let him rest...Uh, I mean let him rest in the imperial capital for a while, and enjoy the blessings, right?"
Bude is the supreme commander of the imperial capital's military, and the guards only accept Bude's dispatch. Bude, who kept silent during this normal period, expressed his objection at this time. It is really difficult for him to continue. For His Majesty to punish the crime, we can only temporarily adopt a policy of delay, and then we will find another opportunity.
"Well, so be it! Since a long time ago, your words have never been missed!"
The little emperor just smiled like this, said the words of absolute trust in the minister, and looked at Yong Ye who was standing under the stairs again.
"Since the ministers have said so, then General Yongye, you should stay in the imperial capital and rest for a while!"
"Really? Since His Majesty has said so, I naturally have no objection."
There are a large number of virtuous men who fled from the imperial capital in the northern border, and there are heavy guards. It is not a big problem to leave for a while. Ye, that is, he agreed casually.
Yong Ye was very clear about what the minister had in mind, it was nothing more than letting the little emperor keep him, looking for opportunities to find his flaws, and he was not afraid that he would have any flaws, nor was he worried about being besieged by the ministers in the imperial capital.
The guards of the imperial city and the imperial capital, the regular military forces are all in the hands of General Budd, and the minister can't move the guards who are firmly controlled by Budd.
Since there is no way to mobilize and attack him, if it’s just an assassination, it’s just for him to have fun. There are countless strange people and Tegu envoys who have tried to kill him over the years, and they were all killed by guards or Arrested.
After all, no matter how strong Teigu is, it is only a tool, and the user is only a mortal body. Therefore, there is no rule that the Teigu must be defeated by the Teigu. representatives.
Well, of course, under Eternal Night there are also many Teigu collected during the war.
Maybe the minister just wanted him to leave the northern base camp and then look for an opportunity to assassinate him. After all, there are a lot fewer guards here in the imperial capital, and there are only a group of elite soldiers, but it doesn't matter that he doesn't need guards to protect him...even the other way around, Maybe it would be interesting if there was an assassination.
"Okay! Then I will arrange a bigger mansion for you according to the position of General Yong Ye! Even if you are rewarded for your hard work defending the country these years, the gold will be sent to you later."
"...Thank you, Your Majesty."
For free things, it is impossible for Yong Ye not to refuse, so he naturally bowed his head slightly in accordance with general etiquette.
Seeing this, the minister looked at the little emperor with a smile, and stretched out his hand to lead him forward.
"It's time for dinner, Your Majesty, let's go to dinner."
"Huh? Is that so?...Then let's have a good chat with General Bude and General Yong Ye, and I will leave first."
"…yes."
"..."
Seeing that the little emperor listened to the minister for everything, and still depended on the minister so openly, like a puppet at the mercy of the minister, Yong Ye didn't know what to say anymore, and silently did not respond to the little emperor's words, but It was Bude who nodded at the side of the little emperor, but he didn't quite understand his loyalty.
Among other things, there is no problem not participating in politics, but basic persuasion can always be given, right? But looking at it now... it seems that he just doesn't care about it, and doesn't intend to interfere at all? Is this because the previous remonstrance was ineffective so I gave up, or what is the situation?
"...I really don't know what to say, Bud, is this your loyalty?"
When the emperor and ministers left, Yong Ye looked at Bude who had already come down the steps, and asked him bluntly about his loyalty.
"...Defending this country is the mission my family has inherited for thousands of years. Generals should not interfere in politics. This is the ancestor's instruction."
"No, it's not a matter of meddling in politics, is it?"
"Perhaps you also think that I am old and stubborn, but if I intervene in Your Majesty's life now and seriously interfere with His Majesty, then my descendants are likely to follow the example of the minister. And the safety of the imperial capital has always been controlled by my family, that is to say ...The loyalty of my family is very important to His Majesty, if there is someone similar to a minister in my descendants, then no one will be able to stop him."
"...You are really thinking about the long-term, but now you are going to die, and you still have time to think about the future?"
"Your Majesty is still young. When he grows up, he will be able to distinguish right from wrong."
Closing his eyes, Bude chose to believe that when the little emperor grew up, he would be free from the remote control of the minister.
Because he knew the importance of his clan, if he didn't stick to the principles, people would inevitably be corrupted by power and merit. It was by sticking to the principles and ancestral precepts that his clan could maintain their loyalty for thousands of years and defend the emperor for thousands of years.
"Really...then you just wait slowly, hoping to wait until that day appears."
Bude's adherence to principles and ancestral precepts cannot be said to be completely wrong, but judging from the current situation, it is also absolutely not right. Yong Ye knew that this rigidity would not change easily, so he just waved his hand casually, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"---etc!"
When Yong Ye reached the gate of the conference hall, Bude suddenly called out to him from behind him.
Yong Ye stopped his steps, but did not turn around.
"…how?"
"Military attaches should not meddle in politics."
"Well, I know, but when there is no other way, in such an extraordinary period, military commanders should also forcibly intervene in politics, because if you don't intervene at this time, there will be serious consequences. You should know this, right?"
"...I know, but I hope you can remember that defending this country is the mission that my family has inherited for thousands of years. Any traitor who dares to disturb the country's well-being, I will definitely eradicate it with my own hands—no matter who the opponent is !"
"Oh, I know, then I'll wait and see how you can eradicate and let this country really rot the culprit?"
Yong Ye knew that Bude was not only talking about the minister, but he was also warning him when he said these words to him now, but he was not moved at all, he just spread his hands and smiled, and walked out of the meeting hall again .
The great empire that has gone through thousands of years has basically rotted in just five years because of Minister Ernest's relationship.
In the past five years, a large number of citizens have been impoverished due to the minister's ever-increasing heavy taxes. There have been constant refugees fleeing to areas outside the minister's sphere of influence in the northern border, and there have also been constant villages selling their children due to poverty.
In this almost unfamiliar imperial capital, because he just came here, Yong Ye wanted to get acquainted with the surrounding environment, so after coming out of the palace, he took two personal guards and walked around the city in a regular manner. .
The capital of the emperor is not in the north, but there are few people who don't know his reputation, but... except for bureaucrats, there are not many people who know his appearance.
After all, although the technology in this world is very powerful in some aspects, there are no such things as newspapers and TV sets, and even the news about Yong Ye is almost all hearsay.
However, even though Yong Ye would inspect the territory in the northern border, most of them were alone, and rarely accompanied by guards. Therefore, even though there were almost no civilians in the northern border who did not know his existence, most of them did not know of his existence. looks.
