Upgrade Points From Attack On Titan
Chapter 57: On The Eve Of The War, The Storm Is Surging (2/4)
Hearing what Ernest said, the little emperor froze for a moment, frowned, and looked around the hall.
He wanted to find the reliable official that Minister Ornest said, but after looking around, he didn't make the slightest choice.
Finally, the little emperor focused his eyes on Minister Ernest again, his blank expression turned into surprise, and he said happily:
"I'll leave this matter to you, Ernest, and I believe Ernest will be able to handle this matter well.
"Since Your Majesty entrusted this matter to me, then I will go to rescue those disaster victims for Your Majesty, but before that, Your Majesty, you need to give me enough supplies.
"I'll leave this matter to you, the minister. You can just call for as many supplies as you need."
Hearing Minister Ernest's response, the little emperor waved his hand and pushed everything to Minister Ernest.
Minister Ornest was extremely satisfied with the little emperor's choice and answers. He was not interested in disaster relief. The reason why he took the initiative to raise this matter was that he wanted to take advantage of this famine to gain some benefits. That's all.
As for the life and death of those untouchables, Ernest didn't care at all. He even hoped that more people would die so that his property could be expanded again.
"Your Majesty, I think that this matter should not be left to Minister Ernest alone..."
"That's the decision, I'm tired, let's step back."
Just as the little emperor gave the matter of disaster relief to Minister Ernest, an elderly official stood up to stop him, but the little emperor interrupted him just in the middle of his speech.
Hearing the little emperor's words, the official retreated helplessly. His heart was completely disillusioned. Since the death of General Brand, their royalist faction has become weaker and weaker.
Many officials who had once opposed Minister Hornest were cleared out one by one by Minister Ernest with some means.
The officials who still dare to export to stop Ernest now, only a few old guys are left.
Even though the others had objections to Ernest in their hearts, they just kept silent all the time because of fear.
He didn't even dare to say a word.
"Is the empire going to be destroyed like this in the hands of a traitor?"
The old official watched the little emperor follow Minister Hornest and slowly leave the hall, with a look of extreme despair on his face.
The little emperor is basically the puppet of the minister, Ernest, and what the minister says, the little emperor believes.
They couldn't have any influence on the little emperor at all.
If it weren't for the chance of being able to persuade the little emperor to return, a group of them would have chosen to retire long ago.
But what he didn't know was that at the moment the little emperor left the hall, a painful expression flashed across the little emperor's blank face.
However, this trace of painful expression was well concealed by the little emperor, and no one saw it.
In fact, what the old officials didn't know was that the little emperor never thought of becoming self-reliant, but the entire civil servant group was under the control of Minister Ernest, and many generals were also controlled by Minister Ernest.
He had no chance of struggling at all.
"Wait a little longer, when I grow up, Minister Ernest will grow old one day."
The little emperor kept a dumbfounded expression, and then followed Minister Hornest. The whole palace was full of minister Ernest, so he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction.
In addition, although the little emperor knew that Minister Ernest was not a good person, at least Minister Ernest could help him temporarily stabilize the situation.
On the standpoint of dealing with the revolutionary army, God of Death, and many foreign enemies, the minister has always spared no effort.
So in any case, he could neither move the minister, nor did he dare to choose to move the minister at this time.
Otherwise, the empire is afraid that it will collapse completely in a very short time.
Compared with those civil servants who only know how to reason, Minister Ornest is greedy, but he is extremely resourceful.
"General, why don't you stand up and stop Minister Ernest, he obviously wants to use this disaster relief to make money."
Outside the palace, Esdes walked straight out after exiting the political hall, but just halfway there, she was stopped by the old officials who had just raised objections to the little emperor.
"This matter is not within the scope of my duties."
Estes didn't have any intention of talking to the official, she concentrated on polishing an Amber bead in her hand, without even raising her head.
For her, whether the disaster victims of the empire will die or not is a matter for civil servants, and whether the ministers are corrupt or not has nothing to do with her.
In the past three months, she thought of countless ways to get close to Lin Yan.
But Lin Yan never saw her. The Amber bead in her hand is a marriage bead she bought from an envoy from the southern islands. It is said that as long as she polishes it herself and prays sincerely, she will give it to the person she likes. You can make the people you like love you too.
"This is the last one."
Sitting in the carriage, Estes happily opened a small box, in which dozens of polished crystal clear beads were placed in the box.
It took her two months to polish the beads.
Every bead is polished by her patience.
northern border.
The northern grasslands should have been lush with water and grass, melted ice and snow, and rivers everywhere, but now it is a scene of cracked land and dry rivers, and the grass on the ground looks withered and yellow.
"Boss, we have no choice. The drought is too severe this time. That bitch Esdes is just not at the border. This is our chance. The intelligence personnel of the Revolutionary Army have also contacted the southern islands, and For some countries in the west, we will definitely be able to successfully occupy the empire this time and leave this harsh place in the north."
On the edge of the border, by a dry river, a man of a different race wearing gem-studded clothes stood with another man with a muscular body and a long black knife.
Looking at the dilapidated scene in front of him, the man in Chinese clothes frowned tightly. As a leader, he had to consider a lot of things, and a war cannot be launched with a quick brain.
However, the current situation has reached the point where it is necessary to rely on war to alleviate tribal conflicts.
So when he heard what his subordinates said, he sighed, and then said in a solemn tone:
"It seems that this is the only way to go. Let the envoys of the revolutionary army come to see me."
"Also, go and contact the leaders of the various tribes, and tell them that I have benefits for them."
