I really can't control myself.

Chapter 860 Coping

If it was just a motley rebel army created by Thomas Heihe, the empire would not have to worry too much at all. Everyone knew that the fighting power of the peasants was not terrible at all, but the problem was that with the participation of nobles, this matter would be different.The troops under the nobles are real troops, and they have real combat effectiveness, not to mention that there are quite a few nobles supporting Thomas Heihe this time.

"I've already seen that the nobles who supported Thomas Heihe are basically the remnants of the three previous dukes." Princess Yalan also directly explained the situation of these participating nobles.

The three dukes mentioned by Yalan are naturally the Duke of Wren, the Duke of Minotir, and the Duke of Noble.These three dukes are all dead now, and this matter is more or less related to the Merovie family. The Duke of Noble and the Duke of Rennes were directly killed by the Merovey family. The Duke of Minotir After the rebellion, he also played against Gasan on the battlefield.

These three dukes are obviously down now, but they were grand dukes in the empire before, and their power is so complex that it almost covers the entire country.Many families have connections with them, whether it is marriage, business cooperation, or direct alliances, and their downfall will undoubtedly cause losses to these families.

It is because of this that in fact, a large number of families in the empire have conflicts with the Meloway family, but now that the Meloway family is indeed bigger, they don't have a particularly good way or opportunity to do it.But now this opportunity has arisen. The appearance of the illegitimate son Thomas Heihe has given them hope. Of course, they don’t know whether Thomas Heihe is the illegitimate son of Emperor Wigley. It's better to wait for the people of the Merovie family to control the entire court.

All in all, the current uprising has deteriorated rapidly in the past few days, and it can no longer be called an uprising, but a real power struggle.In the past few days, nobles have continuously announced their support for this Thomas Heihe, which suddenly caused the entire empire to split.

Yes, of course there are quite a few nobles who support the Merovie family. In fact, the current foundation of the Merovie family is not as shallow as most people think. Gasine has indeed done a lot of things these days, and there are Many nobles have already established quite good relations with the Merovie family.Now, some people in the empire support the Merovie family, and some people support Thomas Heihe. The whole country, large and small, has started to stand in line, and has split into two factions. Of course, the situation has changed from chaos to confrontation, and the situation has become special for a while. nervous.

There is still no fight now, but the current situation of confrontation seems to be just the fuse.Of course, the situation of Princess Yalan and Princess Fula these days is also quite bad, and it can be said that they have become the target of public criticism.

First of all, the strange situation at present is that the two have not yet ascended the throne.Yes, Linton was also very surprised to hear this. Emperor Wigley has been dead for more than ten days, and a country cannot live without a king. If he is dead, why don't you two hurry up and find someone to ascend the throne?As a result, it is still a window period.

Linton inquired and found that Yalan is also having a headache now. Didn't Thomas Heihe just say that he murdered Wigley to become the emperor? Do you think you want to be the emperor? Doesn't it mean that you will be crowned as soon as Wigley dies?Of course Yalan didn't want to admit this, of course it wasn't Wigley who she murdered, how could this be possible, if she became the throne, could she make it clear?

Princess Fulla is actually in a similar situation. Her current relationship with the Merovie family is basically obvious, and everyone knows about it.If she ascends the throne, the other party's name change can also be held on her, and Princess Fula herself is not interested in the throne than Yalan, so it is not like ascending the throne at all.The result is what Linton sees now. Thomas Heihe is very happy, and whoever will be enthroned here has not yet been decided.

"It's such a headache. Can you have a little bit of political common sense? The opponent has already claimed to be the emperor. If you don't set up an emperor to fight against the opponent, you don't even have the righteousness to attack them." Linton said with his forehead supported.

The normal course of action at this time is naturally to ascend the throne as soon as possible, then announce that the other party is a traitor or something, and then send troops to crusade.If you don't ascend the throne now, isn't that acquiescing to the other party's emperor status?This is not to make the other party more unscrupulous.But it's not that Yalan didn't even think of this, but the problem is... she can't handle the relationship.

She really doesn't want people to think that she is a patricide, even if it is framed, but to be honest, once she really ascends the throne, it is really not easy to clarify this matter, as far as the current public opinion situation is concerned, everyone thinks It was she who did it at this time, and being enthroned now is simply adding fuel to the fire. Yalan said that if this matter is really involved, she will not know how to behave in the future.

"I'm a little surprised, why doesn't anyone think that Wigley was killed by Thomas Heihe?" Linton asked, "It's possible that he did it, right? The most suspicious thing is that Wigley wanted to recruit him before. When Gong confronted this matter, the other party didn't come, so his identity was very doubtful, and Wigley was also assassinated on the way to meet him, so that didn't prove that the other party was Wigley's child. Isn't it also possible that the other party is not Wigley's child, he wanted to hide this matter, so he killed him before Wigley arrived, why didn't anyone suspect this?"

"Of course there are, but they are all from our side." Princess Yalan said.

Linton also understood that the current public opinion is mainly suspicious of Princess Yalan, not to say that there is no possibility of what he said, but not many people think about it.The nobles who supported Thomas Heihe didn't care about whether the other party was really an illegitimate child. They just wanted to take advantage of it, so of course they wouldn't clarify these things.In terms of public opinion, the other party obviously controls much higher than them.

Yes, from the beginning of this matter, the other party has controlled the direction of public opinion. Linton has even seen some modern methods of public opinion operation. Thomas Heihe was completely fired by one hand. Linton does not think the other party has this ability , from the very beginning, there may be forces who came down to help him carry out this series of plans.

The matter is almost understood, and now it is the question of how to deal with it.This matter is still very serious. Once Thomas Heihe really ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, the Merovie family will definitely die. Princess Yalan and the others estimate that they will be charged with murdering relatives soon. Can Linton Let it happen.

The more troublesome part of this matter is still in terms of public opinion. Yes, now Linton rushed directly to hack Thomas Heihe to death. That is too easy. Linton does not know how many troops the opponent has now, but it doesn't matter at all, Linton He felt that if he wanted to kill him, no number of people could stop him.

If Linton himself became the emperor, Linton said that he would definitely do that, and I would immediately proclaim the emperor, and then said that the other party was a fake, and those who supported him were all traitors, and then flew over and hacked people to death. Others like to do whatever they like, and think whatever they like, but Linton doesn't want to be emperor, so he will find trouble for himself if he has nothing to do. How can he have time to do this.

Originally, Yalan's ascension to the throne is of course the best, and it is convenient to do things. Although Princess Fulla is not their most personal person now, Linton thinks it doesn't matter, so he asked her and Yalan to discuss and find someone Get enthroned.But in this matter now, Linton rushed over and chopped him off. It's really hard for Yalan to be a man after that.Linton also didn't believe that if he killed Thomas Heihe, the agent behind him, the forces behind him would disperse. There must be a lot of follow-ups, and it is estimated that the "good boy" Yalan will be driven crazy.

Yalan is his own woman, and Linton must let her live happily, so Linton will definitely not do this.Since the other party is going to engage in a public opinion war, Linton said that he will play with you. I am a person in the information age. I have never seen such a turbulent operation. How can I let you play?

Since we want to play with public opinion, the first thing we need to control is the platform that dominates public opinion.In the information age, the Internet dominates this. Everyone gets information from the Internet. Of course, there is no such thing as the Internet in this world.So what is the public opinion platform in this world?The answer is people, yes, information in this world is passed on from mouth to mouth, so if you need to control public opinion, you need an organization.

If you can control a huge organization that spreads across the entire continent, you can control public opinion. This is much more troublesome than in the information age. There is no such thing as a convenient forum for posting information, so if you want to implement it? Easy, it is impossible for Linton to conjure up such an organization now.

Of course, it is even more ridiculous to start newspapers and media now, because there is no time to do these things. Of course, you can try it later. After Yalan ascends the throne, you can do some things in this area to control domestic public opinion. Such a thing, but it is definitely not possible now.

So what do we do now?Of course, there is still a way. Linton thought of an organization that could help immediately. The name of this organization is the Church of Light.Yes, the Almighty Church of Light was targeted by Linton again. How should I put it, these guys are really useful. After a little calculation, Linton started his own plan.
