Fel doesn't lie to you

Chapter 797 Greymane’s Choice
Some things don't just happen if you don't want them to happen. Greymane knew this very well, but before meeting Li Ke, he still wanted to maintain some dignity of the Gilnean royal family.

but--

"Are we seeing humans?"

Greymane asked this question in his heart the first time he saw Li Ke sitting on the golden throne.

But Li Ke saw it very clearly, and he also knew very clearly what Greymane would ask and what he wanted to know.

"I am a human, a genuine human being. As for you, Greymane, your family can still rule Gilneas, but you must ensure your absolute justice, be able to fully abide by the laws and order of the empire, and must be at peace with you at all times. The empire must be consistent, whether it is in the civil service or in other directions... Don't worry, this is just to preserve your Gilnean culture, not to do anything to Gilneas. A large number of management talents are needed. As long as your family members can pass and implement my civil service ethics, they can continue to participate in the politics of the empire. "

Li Ke finished what he wanted to say to Greymane in one breath. As for Tess entering the harem, he was completely indifferent.

Come in if you like. Anyway, he is the same. He has been busy with the Internet every day recently. No, it is about isolating the Internet. He is almost going crazy.

As for the affairs of the empire, he really doesn't have much to worry about. His eyes that can see the shadow of the past and the future allow him to handle most government affairs easily. The rest is just a thought and then issuing orders to those officials for arrangements. and disposal only.

And he doesn't need to issue orders carefully for many things. He only needs to promote the right people and then issue orders.

His eyes can see clearly who is the right person.

Therefore, even if the proportion of demons and other extraordinary creatures is rapidly decreasing in the civil service system, Li Ke's civil service system can still maintain integrity.

And when all facilities and isolation networks are in place, it will be possible to systematically isolate civil servants from laziness and corruption.

Of course, welfare benefits will naturally keep up. Otherwise, just making people work hard without providing sufficient benefits will cause the entire empire to lose its vitality.

After all, the most important thing for a boss is to learn how to share the cake.

A boss who doesn't know how to share the cake will definitely not be a good boss.

But unfortunately, with his status and power, he doesn't need cake at all and can take all the blame in one breath.

Greymane only felt that his whole body was thoroughly penetrated by Li Ke. He didn't know what he had experienced. He only knew that when Li Ke looked at him, his thinking ability was almost frozen, and those eyes It was full of love for the people of Azeroth, but it was also cold and ruthless. There was no pity or contempt for him at all, as if he was just a pawn on the opponent's chessboard.

All his thinking cannot go beyond what the other person is thinking, and all his cognitions cannot go beyond the other person's thinking.

Moreover, everything Li Ke said was what he wanted to know.

Li Ke's attitude towards Gilneas, his attitude towards Gilneas culture, and his attitude towards their Greymane family.

And Li Ke was so decisive and straightforward, as if to satisfy a worried and uneasy child, he casually stated what he was most worried about, and then gave him a reassurance.

"Yes... Your Majesty."

Greymane lowered his head. He finally understood why Varian would admit defeat with sincerity.

They are not fighting a person, but a political machine!

He still had vanity and his own demands, but the person in front of him had become a part of this kingdom, a standard mechanical part, a man who became a god in order to rule.

Such a person has nothing to say and nothing to blame.

Greymane left slowly, but when leaving the palace, he looked at his daughter Tess with complicated eyes.

"Tess, I'm sorry, I have to send you into the pit of fire. The current Emperor Li Ke will no longer try to love someone. At this time, he is a political monster..."

It was a little difficult for him to talk to his daughter, but he actually doted on his daughter.

"This is our destiny, isn't it?"

But Tess was unusually relaxed. When she saw Li Ke, she knew that Li Ke would be a very fair person, because people living in this city are very energetic and happy.

There was hope for the future in their eyes, which was something she could hardly see in Gilneas, because in Gilneas, many people had no future to get ahead.

Gilneas is originally a small place with many nobles and a large number of farmers without land, so it is difficult for these people to see hope.

Many Gilneans have taken precarious jobs such as adventurers.

But now, they Gilneans can also enter the factory and no longer have to worry about not having land.

"Furthermore, His Majesty Li Ke basically treats everyone equally. I have heard about this in Gilneas. Isn't Her Royal Highness the Princess of Lordaeron very happy living here?"

Greymane was a little helpless, but also a little relieved. His children were very sensible and kind, unlike Arthas, who was a bastard.

But I also felt helpless and sad for Tess Greymane's kindness.

"Yes, justice..."

Greymane found it ridiculous. He had always thought that there was no absolutely just person in this world, but he didn't expect to meet one.

Because when he came, he was actually ready to die.

There are too many problems in his body. Whether it is resisting Li Ke or declaring war on Li Ke, in fact, it should be ended by his death.

But Li Ke has only one attitude.

He couldn't control what happened before, but as long as he followed the rules, nothing would happen.

He spoke directly in plain language, as if he, the King of Gilneas, was not important at all.

Well, with the power shown by the other side's empire, Gilneas is really not very important.

Even if he hadn't declared war this time, I'm afraid the other party wouldn't be so aggressive.

"I just don't know how long he can hold on."

Greymane looked at the palace in the distance and thought about this problem. In his opinion, such a life is not what humans should do. No human being can permanently rule an empire in such a state.

Because this consumes too much people's hearts.

"But, what will Gilneas look like in the future?"

Greymane didn't know, but he felt that it couldn't be any worse than it was now. Moreover, this responsibility is no longer his. His most important job now is to urge his eldest son to get married and then take care of his children.

"Retired all of a sudden..." Greymane couldn't help but think of Admiral Proudmoore, and as soon as he thought of him, he saw the person he once hated so much appeared in his eyes. before.

The grudge between Greymane and Daelin is difficult to explain clearly. The two were once close friends when they were young. They fantasized about how to use Gilneas's harbor to open up new shipping lanes and how to deal with the rocks around the Gilneas coast.

But as they grew and Terenas became stronger, many things changed.

Most of their friends who were able to write letters to each other and play together have become pure interests.

And Terenas and Dailin became enemies of most countries, and the friendship between them naturally disappeared.

Although they could still call each other old friends on the surface, the original friendship was almost completely exhausted.

But I never expected that I could show my surrender to the same person in an empire and meet him as a friend instead of a king.

"Long time no see, Greymane, you seem to be in a bad mood?"

Dailin walked up to Greymane and teased him, while Greymane sighed and nodded.

"It's okay, it's not the worst ending after all."

At this time, Dai Lin asked.

"How does it feel?"

"It was terrible. I felt like I was facing a machine."

Greymane expressed his feelings, one of his greatest feelings.

"This... there's nothing we can do about it."

Dai Lin sighed. They were all war criminals in this matter, so they couldn't say anything and could only change the subject.

"Speaking of which, the orcs are leaving our planet completely."

Orcs?

Greymane has been in 2 all year round and really doesn't know Li Ke's various policies. But Greymane still knows the importance of the Dark Portal, because if the orcs occupy the entire world, then even the high wall of Gilneas will be useless.

The orc shamans can easily destroy their walls.

So Greymane was very concerned about this news.

"What do you mean? Those green-skinned monsters opened the door to darkness again?"

Dai Lin shook his head.

"No, it's just that our Emperor intends to enslave those orcs in another way and make the orcs' world a food-producing area for us Azerothians."

When Greymane heard these words, he subconsciously thought of Terenas. Back then, Terenas had been constantly looking for the value of the orcs other than war, but now, Li Ke had found it.

"I'm really curious...can this kind of thing really be done?"

He didn't understand, but since his eldest son was resurrected by Li Ke, Dai Lin, who didn't have that much hatred for the orcs, still wanted to take a look.

"Let me take you to see it, Greymane. In the western wilderness, there are still many orcs learning how to farm."

With that said, Dailin walked towards the door, and Greymane followed.

Because of Dai Lin's special identity, the group's actions were relatively smooth, and they easily reached the place where the orcs were through the teleportation array.

And Greymane, who is still very interested in everything in the empire, was stunned as soon as he came out of the portal, because what was shown in front of him was a large cotton field, and there were many people working in the cotton field. of orcs.

Not only that, in the shade of some trees, there were many orcs who had just finished their work and were resting, and beside them, there was a combination of fried chicken and watermelon.

"Damn orcs..."

Greymane was immediately disgusted and didn't want to see watermelon and fried chicken on his table anymore, but he didn't say anything because he knew that Dai Lin would only be more disgusted than him.

"It seems like these orcs are living quite well. Why is Li Ke so kind to these monsters?"

Greymane didn't understand, while Dai Lin sighed helplessly.

"It seems you still have a lot to learn, Greymane... Times have changed, and the most important thing is that orcs are useful."

Dai Lin looked at the endless cotton fields. The cotton in these cotton fields could become the clothes of people in this world, but it could also be the clothes of these orcs, and it could even be one of the main materials for various high explosives.

"Their abilities and physique can help the empire solve many problems, especially the problem of farming. Moreover, the orcs are also an intelligent race after all..."

Greymane could tell that Dai Lin was explaining to him while trying hard to convince him.

After all, his son did not die in the war against the orcs, so it is normal for him not to hate the orcs as much as Dai Lin.

However, seeing how Dai Lin, who once hated orcs so much, has become like this, Greymane, who has always been in his own small circle, is still very curious about what happened to Greymane to make that person The admiral, who was as stubborn as himself, became what he is now.

"It seems that you have been through a lot, Dai Lin... But I think it is indeed a good thing that they can leave our world, isn't it? However, I actually want to know what kind of person our Majesty is. ”

Greymane said a few words to suit him, and then wanted to know more about Li Ke.

Because he desperately wanted to know what kind of person Li Ke was, but Dai Lin could see the ambition in Greymane's eyes.

This person who has not experienced Li Ke's transformation with them still seems to have no intention of giving up.

"I don't know how to tell you, but Greymane, I can only tell you one thing."

Dai Lin's expression became serious.

"Don't try to get involved in the issue of the Emperor's successor."

This was his last advice to his old friend.

But obviously——

Greymane didn't listen.
