Chapter 389

When Philip returned to the castle of the Duchess house, he immediately asked people to call several tailors in the castle, told them something in private, and then sent them to the chamber of commerce where Princess Louise stayed.

Later, alpha also secretly took a group of people to watch around the chamber of Commerce. Every other hour, the news would be sent back to the Duke's house.

To Philip's relief, it seemed that nothing had happened all afternoon.

What is Princess Louise doing in the northwest at this time? Although Philip can't figure it out, in his opinion, it's not a big problem.

The key question is... Dali! The future Princess, what is she doing here?

Philip is not a simple minded person. Although he has received information that Miss Dali is a good friend of Princess Louise, don't forget that Dali is not only the future Princess, but also the sister of general arpaye, the commander of the whip of thunder, the biggest political enemy of the Duke of tulip in the Empire.

As an excellent disciple of Mr. blue ocean, Philip is not only proficient in political strategy, but also has a lot of research on the art of emperors.

From the time alpai rose like a comet, Philip accurately judged the Regent's intention.

Balance, the key to the art of emperors, is always balance!

At that time, after careful analysis, Philip immediately put forward his own suggestions to Dewey: Dewey's military newspaper, which accused alpaye of robbing him, was written by Philip himself

……

That night, Philip, a young aide, said something very far sighted to Dewey.

"Your Highness. From the current point of view, your strength has developed to a bottleneck! You are already a Duke! In addition to the immediate royal family can not be king of the law, your title has reached the peak! From the official position, you have the rank of general, member of the magician society, branch Dean of the school of magic, chief of the northwest war zone, and so on. It can also be said that he is a supreme minister! At the same time, in the Empire, support 100000 troops, the important thing is, you also have the advantage of air weapons beyond this era! And outside, more Rowling family to do your reinforcement! Imagine if you were an emperor, would you like to see such "powerful officials" under your own hands? Besides, he is also a strong official! Before that, Prince Chen just came to power and set up your new king. It is to show his ambition and innovative intention as a new generation monarch, and also to suppress those old ministers. However, now that his position has stabilized and everything in the empire is under his control, if you are too strong. It will make the emperor feel unstable. In any case, over the past two years, we have been showing our best in the Northwest... Although I have already suggested that when the northwest army is defeated this time. But it seems that the Regent is still not at ease. Alpai, it is the king who made a chess piece to restrict us. And then, if there is no accident, the next ten years will be the most critical period for the new tulip family to flourish or decline or even collapse! "

Speaking of these places, Philip bent down to Dewey, and then the young man suddenly said with a light smile in an unprecedented relaxed tone: "my Lord. I'm loyal to you. I don't want my boss to fall down so soon. "

Then Philip analyzed duvet's several dangerous weaknesses

"First, your position! Your position is too high now! High status, although a good thing, but for you, is a very dangerous double-edged sword! Because of your age!! It's true that in the Empire now, simply in terms of status. And old Prime Minister robustscher can compete with you in prestige. But don't forget. Lord robustcher, it's seventy this year. But you are not even 18 years old! According to the normal law, you have at least 50 years left in your political career. But your position has reached the pinnacle of everything a man can have. I dare to ask you a question: Your Highness, if you make any contribution to the Empire in the next few decades, what should the Regent reward you with? Is it true that cleft earth is king? Or... Give up the position of emperor to you? These are absolutely impossible. The Regent may appreciate you now, but he is a king after all, and an ambitious king.

The second weakness is your military power! Taking the private army of an aristocrat as an example, our tulip family now has nearly 50000 troops, which is the limit that an aristocrat can reach. Although it has not exceeded the number of imperial laws, I'm afraid even the blind can see how powerful our army is now. I can directly say that if we have those ultra new weapons and combat arms, our 50000 troops, even if they meet the most powerful main battle corps of the Empire, will have the power of the first World War! As for the other local garrisons, we need not even mention them. I remember that you once said something that I admire very much, which is called "sleeping on the side of collapse, how can others sleep soundly!", Change is Chen prince, don't you have such strong force for a noble under your hand, so at ease?

The third weakness is your wealth! Even I have to sigh for you. Your highness, I'm afraid you are the best one to collect money since the founding of the Empire! And your speed of making money is almost a miracle! Since you were 14 years old, you have the strongest financial resources in mainland China in just four years! No matter how many industries you have created, how many miracles you have created, or even the wealth we have swept from Nanyang, I'm afraid that no one can make money faster than you in the thousand years of the Empire. But here's the problem... If you have soldiers alone, then the empire can still use financial money and food to restrain you, but you have soldiers, money and food, and territory... Which King can rest assured when these three things are combined?

Fourth weakness, your opponent! That's what worries me the most! He has always been in the political arena. I'm not afraid you are strong, but I'm afraid you have no opponent! Because once you have no opponent, it will cause the king's scruples. I have carefully studied the coup more than two years ago, and I have heard my teacher Mr. LAN Hai analyze the Royal struggle. His current emperor, Augustine VI, once praised his eldest son, Prince Arvin. Unfortunately, before the old emperor was old, the eldest prince grew up. Because of the fear that the great prince would seize the class and power ahead of time, the old emperor would hold up his son Prince Chen. In fact, the old emperor may not really like Prince Chen, just use him to balance the big prince.

Can you see now, within the Empire, is there any political enemy who can balance you?

This was my biggest worry. I have even secretly worried that if there is no political enemy in the Empire who can be your enemy, you will be strong in three years. Will cause the Regent's panic! It's panic, not just suspicion! My Lord, if that time comes, the Regent will not hesitate to suppress you, even you. Take some drastic measures!

Fortunately, now the Regent does not want to move your mind, but "find" a political enemy for you. Such a move can be said to be very smart. What's more, it's a kind of safety for you! Because this action, on the contrary, shows that the Regent wants to continue to use you, rather than use up in a short time. My advice to you is that no matter how much our Regent praises the new man, you should cooperate well. The Regent means that he wants us to fight. Then we'll show him. However, in the process of fighting, we need to take the initiative and grasp the situation, so everything will be safe. "

There is no doubt that this remark is a brilliant political skill. These theoretical things can be said to be the outstanding achievements of blue ocean university students. At the same time. Young Philip. After three years in the northwest, he finally grew up to be an excellent real staff.

This is a strategic strategy. Very much appreciated by Dewey. But Philip's talent is more than that!

After setting up the grand master plan for Dewey, Philip did not ignore the details.

"The general direction is basically not dangerous. But we should also be very careful with this "political enemy"! After all, my Lord, I want to remind you that everyone is ambitious! As far as we are concerned, it's good to fight with the political opponents and let the Regent rest assured. But for this political opponent... They may not be willing to be our training companion! Now our fight is not just an ordinary fight. To be clear, it can even be said that in the next few decades of the Empire, who can become the first powerful family in the whole empire! Now it seems that you are occupying some advantages, but the other side is not without opportunities! As I said just now, people are all ambitious. It's hard to guarantee that the other party doesn't want to take this opportunity to fight us down! So, we should be very careful with alpai's family

This dialogue was just at the end of the northwest war. One night, Philip gave his whole mind to Dewey.

Now, the general development of things is basically in line with Philip's idea.

Unfortunately, the only discordant note is from this miss daili!

When the Regent announced his marriage in the imperial capital, the news had been quickly transmitted to the northwest within three days.

Philip immediately made a full study of the news.

In his opinion, this news is not good news for Dewey.

Alpai's family is destined to become duvi's old enemy. And in this old enemy's family, there is a princess... A princess who is famous for her youth, beauty and talent.

This is a hidden danger for Dewey!

Although the Regent is a very independent monarch, and marry this miss Dali, it is clearly a political marriage without feelings. But it's hard to say about feelings. Regent Prince Chen is a famous young and affectionate man in the imperial capital. And this miss daili is also the leading beauty in the southern aristocratic circle, beautiful and versatile. In the future, the Regent will not fall in love with this young wife.

At that time, as long as the pillow wind is often blown, then even if a man has his own opinions, the potential impact day after day will be very dangerous to Duwei.

And... Not only that. Philip can see further!

As a disciple of blue ocean, Philip's research on the art of monarchy is the essence of blue ocean. He even made a careful analysis of the royal family.

In his opinion, the most worrying thing is the future crown prince!

Now the Regent is only in his twenties. Although he has a son, Prince Charles, the Regent still invites him when he is young. In the next few decades, it's hard to guarantee that the new princess Deli will not give birth to a new prince. What if the new prince is smarter and more popular with the Regent?

It's easy to understand that the queen of Regent is not born into a big family. After all, when Prince Chen got married for the first time, he was still very young. At that time, the red man in the imperial crown prince battle was the great prince Yawen. At that time, most of the rich and powerful families stood beside the great prince, and few people would put their treasure on Prince Chen. The present Queen of Prince Chen. Just the daughter of a middle-class aristocrat.

In the future, if Princess Dali gives birth to a boy, the future generation of crown prince will fight for the present Prince Charles. I'm afraid it lacks the support of my mother's big family.

Princess Dali is not afraid. Her family is very powerful in the south, and alpai is the head of the army! Has the Empire great military power!!

Well, even if the Regent will not be easily moved... But, don't forget the lesson!!

Now the Regent is only in his twenties, and his eldest son, Prince Charles, has heard that he is very clever. But if 20 years later... When Prince Charles is 30 years old, it is the age when a man is most eager to make achievements! At that time, Regent Prince Chen. Not even 50! It is the most mature and thoughtful peak age of a monarch!

Maybe it will repeat the story of the old emperor Augustine VI: in order to avoid the adult eldest son trying to seize the class, he deliberately touted his youngest son out

Although it is said that the Regent is much wiser than the old emperor Augustine VI.

But what is impossible when it comes to the throne?

So, in the future, general alpai's family has become duvi's biggest false enemy!

And Philip did a lot of research on the family.

Especially the future Princess, Miss Dali.

Although the superficial information we got from it only shows how young and beautiful miss Dali is. And artistic talent and talent... But Philip. But from the collection of a large number of information, see a very unusual trace!

Collect local information. There is a whole drawer in Philip's room. In the information, it tells us some details about Miss Dali in the past years, which makes Philip pay close attention to it!

The first thing is that during the southern snow disaster last year, there were riots among the victims in many areas. Although the Empire also took some relief measures, because the roads were destroyed, the money and food could not be transported smoothly, and some disturbances occurred among the hungry victims. Even in some places, the victims besieged the local nobles and snatched food and money.

At this time, Miss daili donated all her jewelry. As a result, the local people were deeply moved by her kindness. Even the victims of the disaster regarded her as the incarnation of the goddess and praised the kindness of Miss Dali.

But Philip sneered!

Donated jewelry? You're kidding! How much is a noble lady's jewelry worth? What's more, Miss Dali is famous for her virtue of "advocating simple life"! A "simple" noble girl, how much can her jewelry be worth?

Ten thousand gold coins? 20000 gold coins?

Such a small amount of money, for donations, can only be regarded as a small number. But what makes people think deeply is that many aristocrats in the Empire responded to the church's call to donate money in this snow disaster in the south, and many of them donated hundreds of thousands!

But who remembers the names of those people?

But it happened to be such a girl who donated only a few pieces of jewelry, but her name almost spread all over the mainland! For a while, the reputation is the same!

A noble girl donated a few pieces of jewelry, which was not a big deal, but why did the news spread so widely?

If it is said that no one is making a secret and deliberately spreading it, then I don't believe in killing Philip!

It's very clear. Just four words:

Buy people's hearts!!

The second thing is recorded in the information file, which happened a few years ago. At that time, in this family, the patriarch was ready to decide the future heir of the patriarch, and the young man with high voice in this family at that time was not general arpai! At that time, alpai was just a deputy commander in the local garrison.

However, at this time. But miss daili stood up and supported her brother alpai. With the support of the goddess of adoration in the hearts of many noble young people, alpai was supported by many nobles and had a wide range of contacts!

Although this method, in Philip's view, is slightly naive. But for a 15-year-old girl. It's amazing to be able to do this.

What do these things mean? Dali, a girl, is definitely not a simple and beautiful girl with artistic talent! In Philip's mind, Miss Dali was young and beautiful. At the same time, a woman who is very scheming, knows how to buy people's hearts, and knows how to use means! And now, such a girl. Who is about to become a princess and can influence the Regent up close. This girl, now also suddenly came to the northwest! What is she doing here? Simply accompany the princess? I don't believe Philip! Wringing his brows, Philip was lost in thought. He looked over and over at the report sent back by the people below. Even Mr. alpha's people guarding the outside of the chamber of Commerce have sent several reports. On the surface, it seems that there is nothing special. It's just who comes out of the chamber of Commerce and where to buy things. Meeting someone... Is something common. One of the messages caught Philip's attention. One of Miss Dali's maids was found by Philip's staff to go to the chamber of Commerce of the Liszt family in the city. It's not surprising that Philip knew that Princess Louise had a friendship with Mrs. Liszt. It's normal for her to get in touch with her friends when she came to the northwest. But it's worth noting that the maid sent out went to another place after she went to the residence of the Liszt family! The Church of light in the city. and. Just after the maid left the religiosity. Her royal highness, the saint who has been living in the religious center, went out at once. Went to the chamber of Commerce to be a guest!! That is to say, her royal highness went to see Princess Louise after the maid sent the news! Princess Louise will never send someone to invite her. After all, Princess Louise and Prince Chen were born by the same mother, and the father of the saint, the eldest prince Arvin, died in the hands of Prince Chen! The relationship between the two people is absolutely not harmonious. So, is that Miss Dali who quietly sent for the saint? This Dali, what the hell does she want to do?! Philip's handsome face suddenly flashed a haze. This young man, who has established full self-confidence, believes in his wisdom and tries to think about this problem. Trying to connect several people to think... And at this time, inadvertently, his mind suddenly gave birth to the shadow of the guy named luoxuedi. The one who looks almost perfect“ Why did I suddenly think of that guy... Although his origin is a little suspicious, but... Why, I always have a feeling that this person is very dangerous. " All of a sudden, Philip jumped up! In an instant, he thought of a terrible possibility!
