Chapter 581 Game
The Ministry of the Nobility reported to Her Majesty the Queen that documents concerning the succession of the titles of 26 senior nobles were sent back.

The minister of the military department frowned when he heard the news in the military department, and asked an earl of the noble department who came to report to him:

"Does Her Majesty have any instructions? Which of the heirs has a bad impression on Her Majesty?"

As the ruler of the empire, succession to the title without the nod of Her Majesty the Queen is illegal and cannot be recognized by the nobility and the empire.

With this kind of power, Ruiwen-Nalong once vetoed the eligibility of a noble heir to inherit the title. The reason was that she was unable to fulfill the corresponding noble responsibilities.

In fact, everyone in the aristocratic circle of the imperial capital understands that it is because the noble heir has a romantic name in the imperial capital and likes to stay in various clubs. His reputation has spread to the ears of the empress, and he thinks that the female emperor, naturally, Let this heir never have the hope of inheriting the title, and his sister has been cheap for nothing, and he has long been a female marquis of the empire.

"Her Majesty the Empress said that these nobles were executed by His Majesty Platinum according to the decree of the gods. Whether or not the original heir inherits the title requires the consent of His Majesty Platinum!"

There was a hint of inconceivability in the words of this earl who served in the noble department. It is the power of the emperor to supervise, deny, and designate the heir of a certain title. No one would have thought that at this time, Her Majesty the Queen would take out this power Shared once with His Majesty Platinum.

The minister of the military department took a deep breath, put down the pen he was reviewing the documents, and said in a low voice:
"Stop this matter first, and talk about it later!"

The count was troubled by this order, and said:
"My lord, the noble department is nominally under the supervision of those high-ranking nobles. This matter involves His Majesty Platinum, and they cannot allow us to delay."

His brows were deeply frowned, and there was no trace of the statue of the God of Light. He had to go about his own activities and search for things in the fiefs of the 26 fief nobles. This privilege was exchanged for the stable inheritance promise of the 26 noble titles.

If the promise of the aristocratic circle in the imperial capital is not fulfilled, then the military minister can imagine what those 26 noble families will do.

He raised his head and glanced at the earl. The voice of the Minister of Military Affairs was slow and firm.

"None of the names on the list can be changed. Since Her Majesty the Empress said that she wants to seek the opinion of Her Majesty Platinum, then you should go and ask for it!"

The earl's body trembled slightly, this order?

"My lord, what do you mean?" The earl would not dare to do such a big matter with just a hint. He needs an exact order from the Minister of Military Affairs. Otherwise, if he misunderstands, no one will take responsibility for him. .

"Didn't Her Majesty have any instructions? She didn't say anything about the list, so please ask Her Majesty Platinum for instructions. I don't think Her Majesty Platinum will have any meaning for the list approved by Her Majesty. After all, this is the Queen's His Majesty's power!"

"So, do you understand?" The minister of the military department seemed to take it for granted, but there was no abnormality in his words, but the thoughts revealed were extremely vicious.

The Earl understood, he did not misunderstand, the Minister of Military Affairs wanted to stir up a conflict between Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty Platinum, and use this conflict to allow this list to pass.

The count did not speak immediately, but after careful consideration, he said:

"My lord, I understand what you mean, and I am happy to serve you, but I am afraid that my ability is not enough to deal with the two majesties. Whether it is the art of speech or performing arts, I am not confident that I can withstand the scrutiny of the two majesties." !"

The earl knew that if he took over this matter, he would immediately become the confidant of the minister of the military department, which was what his family had been looking forward to.

And if this is accomplished, then he and his family will be favored by the entire upper-class aristocratic circle of the imperial capital, and his family's son and daughter will come into the sight of marquis and above nobles marrying.

This is a great temptation, but the Earl resisted this temptation, because his aristocratic skills are not enough for him to complete such a task, and if this task fails, then the consequences are beyond his ability.

At the same time, deceiving Her Majesty the Empress of the Empire and His Majesty Platinum, the first nobleman, and attempting to stir up conflicts between them, is enough to wipe out the Earl's entire family.

The reward of success is as big as the punishment of failure. When the earl feels that he is not more than [-]% sure, he can't touch it.

Hearing the earl's words, the minister of the military department looked at the earl in surprise. Most people can only see the benefits after success. Only a few wise people can see the danger on the road to success.

The minister of the military department did not expect that the earl, who had never received much attention, would be so wise.

"In that case, you go down!"

The voice of the minister of the military department calmed down. Although it is a talent, if it is not for my use, then there is no need to care about it.

The count showed disappointment on his face, turned around and exited.

Early the next morning, a young and confident nobleman came to see Zhou Mo.

Zhou Mo put down the information from the Duke of Barot's territory in his hand, hehe laughed, and ordered:
"Go and ask, if you are from the Noble Department, ask him if the list shown to Her Majesty the Empress yesterday has been changed, if not, don't show it to me, let them redraft it!"

The young and confident nobleman was originally waiting outside Zhou Mo's residence with a smile on his face, but after receiving such a recovery, his confident face instantly became ugly.

"Your Majesty Platinum's decree, the nobles will not revise it as soon as possible."

The news reached the ears of the military minister, and in front of the young nobleman, the military minister slammed the pen out of his hand.

"Too deceiving!"

When His Majesty Platinum did this, it was equivalent to pointing to the face of the Minister of Military Affairs and saying:
"Don't play tricks with me, this kind of thing is left over from my playing, you are too young!"

This made the military minister a little angry.

But this is not the reason for the military minister's gaffe, what really makes the military minister unable to maintain his manners in front of the lower nobles is fear!

Her Majesty the Empress and Her Majesty Platinum are united, which has never happened in more than ten years after the establishment of the empire.

Her Majesty the Queen, who sits at the center of the empire, and Her Majesty Platinum, who established her own kingdom in the empire, have always maintained an ambiguous relationship. They support each other and are faintly hostile to each other. In the empire, the royal family with theocratic power as the background and the military power as the background The nobles have reached a delicate balance.

But now, at this time, when the nobles of the imperial capital are uniting to carry out a plan that can be said to betray the holy sea god, Her Majesty the Queen and His Majesty Platinum have shown the same attitude. What does this mean?
The minister of the military department became more and more panicked. After dismissing the young nobleman, he returned to his home regardless of the unfinished business, and immediately contacted a group of allies.

"Did Her Majesty notice something? Was everyone's actions discovered by the royal family?"

The person has expired, and the minister of the military department raised questions.

The Minister of State Affairs frowned and analyzed:
"No way, Her Majesty has just cleaned up the palace. Although everyone's eyeliner has been removed, but at the same time, the intelligence system of the palace has no time to take care of things outside the palace in a short time. The maids and guards who have newly entered the palace The review of knights is a complicated job!"

The Chancellor of the Exchequer also nodded in agreement:

"Although the expenses of the imperial family are not in my hands, the economic system of the imperial capital is under my control. There is no large sum of money in the palace, and there is no sudden wealth in the imperial capital. Through these, I can be sure , Her Majesty has shown no signs of ordering her subordinates to act on a large scale."

The minister of the military department breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Then this time, what does it mean that Her Majesty the Queen and Her Majesty Platinum are united?"

"The confluence of the two largest forces in the empire is not good news for us. It means that as long as the two majesties are willing, any of us can disappear anytime and anywhere!"

The Minister of the Military Department was sweating on his forehead.

The Minister of State Affairs was also a little worried and said:

"Indeed, what do the two Majesties want to express? Dissatisfaction with our meddling in the succession of the 26 noble titles? This is indeed a taboo against Her Majesty the Empress, but Her Majesty Platinum should be happy to see it happen. These 26 are distributed in Platinum. His Majesty Platinum knows what the nobles on the road that must be passed from the principality to the imperial capital are used for."

"In our plan, we want to securely pass on the 26 noble titles according to our intentions. We are aiming at the delicately balanced relationship between the queen and the platinum family. If the two majesties agree with each other, we will not only obey There is no room for meddling!"

The Chancellor of the Exchequer also realized the seriousness of the matter.

"If our promise cannot be fulfilled, the 26 noble families are not easy to fool. Although the heads of the families are all dead, the intricate network of relationships is still there. If there is a trouble, it is impossible not to expose our affairs."

"And if our affairs are exposed, the 26 nobles whose heads are tied to His Majesty's platinum carriage will be our fate!"

Everyone in the study fell silent, the atmosphere was cold and hopeless.

Although the nobles of the imperial capital are in the power center of the empire, they have no direct influence on the army and the Holy See. The aristocratic circle of the imperial capital has always played the role of maintaining the operation of the empire and reconciling the relationship between the upper and lower levels. They all understand that they are important, extremely important, It doesn't matter, whether it is His Majesty Platinum or Her Majesty the Queen, if they are determined to kill them all and replace them with a group of people, it is only a period of turmoil in the empire.

"All operations are temporarily stopped, and the people outside the imperial capital are ordered to search on their own. Don't contact the imperial capital. We must find out the intention of Her Majesty the Queen, otherwise it will be too dangerous!"

The minister of the military department spoke first.

The Secretary of State then added:
"It's best to wipe out all contact between outsiders and us, and clean up all the people and records that can prove that they have a relationship with us, so as to be safe."

The Minister of Finance thought for a while, nodded and said:

"The current situation is unclear, and that's the only way to go, but the most important thing is the succession list, or let this list pass, or we can make preparations to appease the 26 noble families if the list fails!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

In the court, Rui Wen and Zhou Mo were also discussing this matter.

"Your Majesty Nalong, are you being too merciful to these people? If there is a true god, even if they are cleaned, it will not take much effort."

Rui Wen shook her head and said:
"They are all talents. It's normal to have selfishness. It's also normal for them to be unable to control themselves in the face of the temptation of eternal life. These don't mean anything. What I want is for them to realize that they need someone they respect, and Who is the god that needs to be believed in, not the corpse of a nobleman who wants an imperial capital."

Sudiwen, played by Zhou Mo, shrugged his shoulders.

"Okay, but in this way, they will probably be honest for a while, why not push them to find the statue, and then simply control them from the source, isn't this more in line with your request, Your Majesty the Queen?"

Ruiwen shook her head again and said:
"Although I can tolerate their small actions, I have to distinguish which of these nobles are incurable, which are salvageable, and which are always loyal to me. Only in this way can I confirm the future How to use them!"

Zhou Mo understood what Ruiwen-Nalong meant. It was nothing more than breaking up the originally monolithic circle of aristocrats in the imperial capital, splitting them up, that is, killing a group, beating a group, and pulling a group. This kind of political method is not considered wise.

But it is the most mature and stable political method, and the one that does the least damage to the empire.

"Your Majesty, everything is contingency. It's no problem if you want to deal with it this way, but if these nobles are frightened by you and don't do anything, then the 26 nobles will make a fuss all of a sudden, and everyone will be fine." Looks great!"

Zhou Mo reminded me.

This made Ruiwen frowned slightly. The 26 nobles had never been in Ruiwen's eyes. In her eyes, these nobles who no longer have the first generation of patriarchs are not popular, but why did Sardiwin mention it?

They can make trouble, even if they break out, it will be a disaster for the nobles of the imperial capital, but for her, it is just a small disturbance.

"It's been ten years, but the true gods have made no progress at all, there will always be someone who is anxious first!"

Su Diwen said this, making Rui Wen's brows stretch, and smiled at the same time:
"So you were worried about this, don't worry, the sages have made an agreement not to interfere with each other!"

Zhou Mo's eyes lit up, what he wanted was qualified information.

Do not interfere with each other?When there is no interest, the forces are equal, of course they can not interfere with each other, but what if there is an interest?
What if there are irreconcilable interests between the seven empires in one dynasty?

The corner of Zhou Mo's mouth is smiling, then the Sea God Empire with Ruiwen-Nalong and Sardiwen-Platinum will immediately become the target of public criticism, enemies on all sides!
