Chapter 337 Two generations and three generations of loyal ministers
Rimuru knew that he was one of the few "people" who could be equal to the identity that Masayuki was preparing to obtain but would not put pressure on Masayuki face to face. And because of Masayuki's other identities, such people were extremely rare.
But rare does not mean unique.
"Hey, if you want to help settle these matters, it should be a diplomatic matter, right? Minister of Foreign Affairs Testarossa is your family member of Clawnpis, so I can just leave it to you." Rimuru said in the same tone as always.
He said it in a tone of shirking responsibility, but there was also a hint of regret.
He added: "Well, if you say goodbye this time and plan to take away all your family members, I will find a way to make other arrangements."
Crownpis approached Rimuru, half-covering her mouth and whispered seriously: "As we all know, the crime rate in the Eastern Empire is zero, but some dark industries are not illegal. The Imperial Capital is the largest country that accounts for more than half of the world's population.
A place of majestic wealth, of course, the quality of the stores you need to visit at night when you go to a big city is also——"
"Since it is the largest country in the world, I think it is worthwhile to investigate and arrange to go to Masayuki's enthronement ceremony." Rimuru became serious.
Against this background, after the Demonic Kingdom's Celebration Festival, Crownpis served as a "diplomatic billboard" and, together with Foreign Minister Testarossa, came to the Eastern Empire with the defeated Imperial troops who had returned home.
Naturally, along with the million-strong army was Masayuki, who was brought back by Velgrendo to become the emperor. Of course, Masayuki didn't want to be the emperor, but after spending the night behind closed doors with Rimuru, he seemed to be very energetic and agreed.
Threatening, otherwise Velgrendo will definitely burn down the Demon Kingdom again.
The missions that entered the empire were also missions from puppet states. After all, they occupied some territory of the empire and needed to legalize these through treaties or obtain benefits on these terms.
Puppet Queen Coppelia, except for inheriting part of Marianne Bell's desire and Clayman's ambition, will basically act according to Crownpis's request, and just ask her to cooperate with Testarossa to stabilize the empire and negotiate.
Crownpis has other things to deal with. Now that Rimuru, who looks similar, has "conquered" personally, and there is a capable demon like Testarossa to take care of all aspects of matters, Crownpis's free time has also changed.
Must be quite abundant.
"Although the contact time is not long, you are really capable of going overboard. You are worthy of Rudra's trusted ministers during his lifetime." Crownpis said to the imperial dignitaries specially invited to the meeting at the wine table - Damrad and
Kondo said.
Damrad returned home after confirming that the decree to kill Rudra was completed, while Kondo was of course resurrected.
Kondo: "This is a piece of cake for me. The issue of the local nobles being agitated because the new emperor comes from a foreign country and their dominance may be weakened can be easily solved. There is no need to use law enforcement means, as long as the trade with the demonic country is opened, and the agreement
As Rimuru-sama's plan is advanced in the country, if they can obtain legal benefits, they will naturally agree to support His Majesty Masayuki."
Damrad: "Hey, you put it lightly. All you have to do is extract information from the local nobles as needed. I am the one who is busy here."
Kondo: "That's your job, we just have different divisions of labor."
Damrad: "Well, that's true. After all, as a 'weird who feeds on information', you usually have the harder time in this regard. But you can't do anything about the rest."
Kondo: "Is it a noble family? It's true that even I can't find any loopholes or gaps that I can take advantage of, because I have the status of a relative of His Majesty Rudra and the title of Grand Duke. Normally, nobles who refuse to cooperate at this time will inevitably
There are shady evil deeds, but the noble family has a notorious reputation, but there is no evidence of any evil deeds."
Damrad: "His Majesty Rudra's younger brother, Grand Duke Mishra Hilmenad, that family has always been difficult to deal with. No one will dare to have any form of confrontation with them except us."
Although Rudra must have a higher status, because Rudra had been corrupted by Michael at that time, there was naturally no restraint on his younger brother who had no value as a chess piece and was not harmful to his plan.
Kondo added: "Grand Duke Mishra Hilmenad is only thirty years old now. This age is just a young man by the standards of the faction, but it does not apply to him. He is still a man with various qualities.
He is a man of merit and temperament who is destined to be the leader. If the throne of the empire is not destined to be inherited by the soul of Rudra, he would be the most suitable candidate to become the next emperor."
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh...who was the last person to negotiate with him?" Cronpis asked. Naturally, she was drinking with these two to find something to do with the person they were discussing to deal with.
"General Calecchilio."
"Why is he such a general? Even if he is the only general who has been successfully resurrected, wouldn't it be better to ask a civil servant for this kind of thing? There is no one in the court?" Crownpis drank the wine speechlessly.
Damrad: "Because if you are not a capable soldier, you would not be able to resist just standing in front of him, let alone negotiating conditions that are inconsistent with his wishes."
"Oh, that's really powerful. Do you need help from the guardian dragon or the devil?" Crownpiss teased, "I believe Velgrendo and Testarossa can handle it easily."
"Uh...you are joking." Damrad reluctantly smiled in apology.
Let them go, have a head-on confrontation, and offend them, maybe Rudra's brother will be crushed to ashes directly. You must know that the Grand Duke Misra Sirmenad's family is very large, exceeding one-third of the domestic nobles.
First, in addition to the fact that he is the blood brother of his predecessor Rudra, even if this has the effect of frightening Xiaoxiao in the short term, it will frighten and chill too many people and lay hidden dangers for the future.
Crownpis: "Then, how about letting the civil servant who is good at handling this matter wear a magical item that protects the spirit? Since he is Rudra's younger brother, it is possible that he has inherited some coercive domineering passive skills, right?
.”
Kondo: "At least I haven't been able to collect relevant information. If there is, including His Majesty Rudra, he himself and the people around him are equally unaware."
Crounpis: "Why are you so useless? Why do you think I resurrected you? Is it because you have been Rudra's loyal subordinate in all your previous lives?"
Kondo: "The Majesty I served in my previous life was also the reincarnation of His Majesty Rudra?"
Crownpis: "Ah? Don't you know? Velgrendo said that the previous life you reincarnated as Masayuki was the emperor you served in the previous life. It just seems that the time of your sacrifice is the same as the time of her official public appearance.
