in the name of the queen.

Chapter 288 Tomorrow’s troubles belong to those who have tomorrow
In the spring of 1794, there was no old man drawing a circle in the North Sea, but a group of senior overseas officials standing in the port of Emre were eagerly waiting for the most distinguished guest.

This guest is none other than Roland, the captain and governor of the Royal Knights who once fought alongside them and is currently the deputy emperor with the title of Caesar.

The past year has seen dramatic changes in imperial politics.

The cabinet left by the old emperor was almost wiped out.

Their public crime was treason.

Except for three or four of the original cabinet members, including William and Alban, who continued to serve, the others were sentenced to death or forced to retire early.

Queen Sylph's governance style after she officially ascended the throne can be described as vigorous and resolute.

She is ruthless in attacking dissenters and spares no effort in expanding her overseas power. She is only a little gentle towards the people at the bottom of the country.

In the past year, she has transplanted almost all the successful experiences from four overseas provinces to her home country.

Promote compulsory education, attach importance to industry, encourage commerce and trade, improve military benefits, and eliminate redundant troops.

Some people didn't even know what Caesar meant and hurried to the library to find out.

Hey, who can't see the relationship between Her Majesty the Queen and Roland?

While some were suspicious and others were waiting, Queen Sylph suddenly announced a breaking news on the New Year of 1794.

However, Roland was so accomplished that he shocked the master.

They must prepare themselves for this big test.

Don't think about it, their relationship is still good, there is no gap, flies can crawl as far as they want.

This is Sif's opportunity, but it's also probably a trap.

In order to calm the cabinet and quell the disputes, Sif brought up the old matter again and asked Roland to serve as deputy emperor again.

Roland received the honorary title of Caesar.

The politics of a great power is like this. If there is no absolute necessity and certainty, it is better not to move than to change at will.

In the history of the Magic Empire, Caesar was not only an honorary title, but also the de facto deputy emperor. There was even a record of Caesar replacing the orthodox emperor on the throne.

Since she entered the Arctic glacier one spring and never appeared again, the Vladimir Empire has been operating without the guidance of the Queen for two years, and many problems have arisen in the huge empire.

People are also wondering how the Queen will treat Roland.

Should we continue to reward him or simply let Roland disappear?
While many people were making a fuss while watching, officials from the four overseas provinces never had any doubts.

This cabinet is the Queen's new team and will not be replaced easily without special reasons.

What she meant was very clear. The decisive moment was coming, and now the huge Sussex machine must be put into operation to have a chance.

Governing a big country is like cooking small fish and must be done with caution.

The Queen's absolute trust in Roland dispelled the speculators' illusions.

Roland and Sif did not believe that Sophia would suddenly disappear.

"Tomorrow's troubles belong to those who own tomorrow."

As for how to eliminate the sequelae, let’s talk about surviving first.

If they can't gather the power of the whole country to overwhelm Sophia, they will have no future.

Roland originally wanted to refuse, but was blocked by Sif.

Sophia disappeared.

Although they are also worried that the Queen will destroy the Great Wall, they are even more looking forward to becoming honored guests at the Queen's wedding.

Roland became Caesar, which also completely ended the competition between William and Alban for the chancellorship.

Although they respected Roland, Roland had no official position after all, and sometimes he couldn't suppress them or the cabinet's eagerness to make moves.

The return day is approaching, and there is no reason for Sophia not to show up.

It turns out he was the vice-emperor during the Magic Empire.

That's a standard couple.

Although Her Majesty the Queen has only been on the throne for one year, the atmosphere in the empire has taken on a new look. The old empire has regained its second spring and looks full of vitality.

Every change has the potential to change the fate of thousands of people.

People like him in the history books will most likely not have good results.

Before, both of them used the balance of power as a stage, eager to make enough achievements to allow the Queen to resume her official position as Prime Minister.

Everyone knows that to achieve such results, the Queen's wisdom is of course very important, but the man who stands behind her and works silently may be even more important.

Her reason is simple. Setting up a deputy emperor does have hidden dangers in the long run, but there are more benefits in the short term.

Not only that, the Imperial Shipyard is working hard to digest the oak trees from the Kingdom of Oden. In addition to these sailing battleships, ironclad ships built with new technologies and new drawings are also being launched.

Everyone was stunned.

Recruit qualified army troops from workers and peasants, and reorganize and expand the army with the Knights and Overseas Legion as the backbone.

Believe that you will be wise enough tomorrow.

Leave the hidden dangers of the future to them or future generations.

Roland did not refuse. The title of Caesar was indeed very important.

The empire has gradually formed two major sections, the local and the overseas. With the four overseas provinces officially enjoying the treatment of local provinces, the overseas faction has also become a powerful political force.

The overseas faction not only has calm and capable cabinet members like Athos, but also many backbones like Dailon and Bridges, as well as emerging forces such as Raikkonen and Jess.

They are not too powerful now, but they are growing rapidly, and even cabinet members dare not look down upon them.

The Overseas Faction knows that its foundation is weak, and its words even imply that the Queen has ascended the throne overseas, and she is the biggest backer of the Overseas Faction.

In addition, Caesar Roland is also a leader of the overseas group.

He is the governor of Northern Rodinia, he is the overseas faction!
By becoming Caesar, Roland could make decisions on behalf of the emperor on many occasions.

Such as overseas. Before the decisive battle begins, Sif will sit in the imperial capital and coordinate the interests of all parties. The only person she can fully trust and who can perfectly execute strategic decisions is Roland.

Although Emperor Master Wald has as much trust as Roland, he is old after all.

The Queen couldn't bear to let him continue to work, so she asked him to retire with the highest salary, retaining only the title of senior advisor.

If there are any major issues in the country in the future, the Queen will discuss it with him.

If not, then he can enjoy his old age in peace.

Of course, although his old man's fiefdom was overseas, the Queen did not urge him to leave the imperial capital.

With the teacher by her side, she felt more at ease. After all, Roland was going to sea again.

He is going to four overseas provinces to continue stirring up a bloody storm.

Governor Roland is back!
Officials from the four overseas provinces are all in high spirits and looking forward to it.

Governor Roland is their nobleman.

In just over a year after he came overseas, Athos and Aramis were admitted to the cabinet. Other officials also received considerable rewards, and their promotions were as fast as a rocket.

However, after Roland returned to the imperial capital, the promotion rate of overseas officials was much slower.

Overseas officials felt sad, but they did not dare to complain that Roland had forgotten them.

They could only hope that Roland would come back soon.

What they thought in their hearts must be echoed, and their piety moved God, who finally sent their governor back.

Also returning together were two huge fleets, the Fourth and Fifth Fleets, and hundreds of thousands of elite Central Army troops.

Such a large-scale army must not be escorting Roland alone, but has a larger conspiracy.

Porthos waited at the pier with his heart pounding, and finally saw black smoke at the end of the horizon.

"It's the Governor's flagship!"

Officials in the four overseas provinces preferred to call Roland governor than Caesar or count.

Although this is not Roland's highest position, it is cordial.

Bordos was in high spirits, and his breathing was a little short.

Both Athos and Aramis have successfully entered the cabinet and become high-ranking officials with real power. They have already stood on the ceiling of the people. Only he has fallen behind.

There is no other way. The number of cabinet seats is limited, and his performance score lags behind two old friends, so he can only be wronged to continue to stay overseas.

In order to appease his hurt mood, the Queen specially gave him her concurrent position as Deputy Governor.

Although Porthos was grateful for the Queen's generosity, he was also a little disappointed.

He also wants to make progress.

It's a pity that if you miss the opportunity, you won't come back again.

He originally thought he was going to die overseas, but he didn't expect that his great nobleman Roland would come again.

Thinking of Roland's current power and title of Caesar, his silent heart began to agitate again.

He knew very well what kind of subordinates Roland liked, so he naturally didn't dare to neglect him.

Fortunately, he has not relaxed in these years, and still promotes the construction of the governor-general area according to the policies left by Roland, and it is very effective.

It took a full hour from the time the black smoke of the flagship appeared on the horizon to Roland boarding the dock.

This is also the most uneasy month in Bordeaux.

He was looking forward to Roland coming back soon to take him to drink soup, but he was also afraid that the soup would not be enough to satisfy him. He was even more afraid that Her Majesty the Queen would send Roland overseas just to rectify and stabilize things.

While he was worrying about gains and losses, the salute sounded.

Porthos's heart finally settled down.

He was greeted with a total of twenty gun salutes, which was also his request.

As we all know, in most countries, the maximum number of welcome salutes is twenty-one. Among them, 21 rings are used to welcome the head of state, and 19 are used to welcome the head of government.

Although Roland is the vice-emperor, the governor would definitely not like it if he overstepped the mark by going directly to the twenty-first ring.

It would be rude to play it nineteen times.

Roland's status is much higher than that of the Prime Minister.

In the end we can only compromise.

Seeing Roland's gentle smile as he stepped onto the dock, Bordos breathed a sigh of relief.

He won the bet.

The Governor is still the original Governor.

Porthos rushed forward and saw the golden scepter held by Roland out of the corner of his eye, and felt a shiver in his heart.

It was the scepter that represented the emperor's authority. Her Majesty the Queen did not carry it with her when she left the imperial capital.

His expression was slightly stiff, and he vaguely felt that there seemed to be something between him and Roland.

Just when he was slightly frustrated, Tony standing next to him smiled and reminded:
"Porthos, don't be too upset just yet. Think about it, if you just go back to the Viceroyalty, is it necessary to carry His Majesty's scepter?"

"And look at this huge fleet, how many soldiers do you think it can carry?"

Although Bordos likes to brag, he is by no means a waste without real materials.

His fat body trembled, and he understood the implication of Tony's words.

Her Majesty the Queen sent Roland, the most trusted person, with a golden scepter and such a huge fleet, which was definitely not a joke.

He knew very well that the empire was going to make big moves.
