He must refuse. The idiot prince is actually not stupid at all. His stupidity is his own disguise. After all, he was born in the royal family. If he does not walk on thin ice, he will definitely die in peace. Just like his eldest brother, who is so outstanding, wise and brave, but suddenly one day he is gone.
He disappeared, and even his body was not found.
Even wisdom and bravery cannot stop the plot, so pretending to be stupid is the best way.
Although Dulan said it nicely, if the idiot prince really did this, he would be seeking death. He has no foundation at all in Yangguoxing, preaching love and peace, and destroying enemies, it is simply an open enemy of his second brother
.His second brother is the highly anticipated heir. He is powerful and petty, and will not show mercy to his brothers. It’s scary to think about it.
Although Yang Guoxing is very strong, the methods of fighting for power are no different from those of the Earth shogunate. They mainly focus on assassination. Kill all those who stand in their way and secure the position of heir.
The situation is similar in the shogunate. Those who have the right to inherit the general will try their best to kill the general, usually by poisoning. If poisoning is ineffective, they will directly mutiny. Anyway, they will kill the general.
The idiot prince doesn't want to die for no reason.
What Duran wants is another cosmic-level imperial country. In the cosmic era, powerful civilizations in science fiction always like the imperial system.
In fact, an imperial system is possible, but a cosmic-level imperial system feels inferior to the imperial system of two thousand years ago. The emperor is still only one of the landlords, only a co-owner of the landlords, and has not completed the transformation of the land. There are princes and emperors everywhere in the vast universe.
He is just a co-leader and has no ability to implement executive orders.
If the emperor wants to collect taxes, the princes will not give him face.
In this kind of imperial system, the emperor is just a decoration. He has no land rights, economic rights, or talent rights. He relies entirely on the princes who support him to give him face.
The emperor should be the largest landowner in the world, not just an ordinary landowner like the princes, or even a small landowner.
Emperors are also divided into periods. Before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, there was a lack of control over talents and power, and a strong emperor was needed to bring about stable development. By the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the emperor's ability was no longer very important, because of the flow of talents, even if the emperor did not go to court, the country would still function.
.
Due to the Nanpo Incident, the Yuan Dynasty failed to transform into the Han Dynasty, which also led to the end of its rule in less than a hundred years.
Many empires at the cosmic level are the model before the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which rely entirely on the ability of the king. If the king can suppress the princes, then the universe will be peaceful. If the king cannot suppress the princes, then there will be various infighting among the princes, and even
There are also princes who want to bring down the emperor.
Without controlling the power of talents, even a country as powerful as the Tang Dynasty would suffer from the Anshi Rebellion. Therefore, the empire of the universe and the empire of "A Song of Ice and Fire" are exactly the same in Dulan's view, and there is no difference.
The emperor is just a co-owner. He can only expand externally and cannot redistribute resources internally. He cannot even do the most basic transformation of the Han Dynasty. Although he is an emperor, his name is just a false one.
"If you don't have power, just borrow it. For example, you can borrow power from the Rebel Academy. I can lend you millions of villains. When the time comes, you will promote love and peace, just don't forget me." Dulan said, in this situation
Under the environment, it is very normal to find rare things. Support an unpopular heir and make a big gamble. If you win, you will be rewarded ten thousand times.
As long as the other princes are conquered, there is no need to formulate any advanced system, just fight and it will happen every hundred years. Since the universe is like this, Dulan said that he can fully support the idiot prince to inherit the throne.
The idiot prince also heard about Dulan's ambition, and he also knew a lot of stories about rare things. The princes chose a puppet to be the emperor, and he would even replace him in the end. If Dulan supported him in defeating his second brother, the other party would definitely do it.
Anyone who steals the Yangguo Star will become a slave to the country's subjugation, which is definitely not possible.
There are several big families in "A Song of Ice and Fire", and the king is just one of them. Once the king dies, several families begin to compete for the throne.
What the king can rely on is the strength of his own family, but how can one family block the ambitions of other families?
If you want to build a kingdom, you cannot directly ascend to the throne. You should use the slogan of protecting the king's heirs and use the emperor to command the princes. Such a family can usually gain everyone's support quickly.
Because holding the emperor hostage to order the princes is an attitude, which is to maintain the previous order. Those who benefited from the former king do not have to worry about the new family coming to power. So they can support this new family.
However, as time goes by, it is only a matter of time to replace the king. Therefore, the idiot prince is worried that Dulan is the same. He supports him at first to blackmail the emperor and order the princes, and after he succeeds, he will kill him.
Du Lan thought to himself that this fat man was really not stupid. He was indeed a descendant of the emperor's family. He had studied history and knew that there had been many attempts to seize power in history, so he did not want to become a puppet or be used by others.
If Dulan joins Yang Guoxing's battle for the heir as a force, then the idiot prince will definitely win, but the prince will definitely have to pay a high price.
Just like Lu Buwei, after supporting King Zhuangxiang of Qin to ascend to the throne, he became the prime minister of the country, had his own fiefdom, and made a lot of money. If Du Lan also supported the prince to ascend to the throne, he would definitely be rewarded with a high official and generous salary.
But the prince knows that Dulan is too dangerous. Once he enters the power center of Yangguoxing, he will definitely control the situation. By then, he will not be able to keep the throne, and the entire country may even be involved in the war. Because Dulan said that through
If you go to war to promote love and peace, you are a tyrant and will cause Yang Guoxing to become the enemy of the entire universe.
Perhaps Dulan had planned this from the beginning. He was the villain's mentor, and perhaps he wanted to make the entire Yangguo Star into a villain in the universe.
He can no longer be satisfied by his personal darkening. Only the darkening of the entire civilization can satisfy him. The idiot prince only feels fear because such people are so terrible. He cannot understand why Duran wants to cultivate villains.
He said it as if others could understand why he wanted to raise dangerous beasts. Didn't the prince still enjoy it? Even if he was almost eaten by wild beasts several times, didn't he still want to express love and peace to the wild beasts?
Both the prince and Dulan have their own hobbies, and neither of them is understood by others, but they can't stop at all.
"You really don't think about it anymore? As long as I support you, sooner or later you can be crowned king." Dulan said, "And you only need to pay a small price."
"I don't believe there is a free lunch in the world, and I also oppose your idea of using war to promote peace."
"Using force to stop war is contrary to the movement of Tao. Blindly pursuing peace is the real ignorance." Duran said: "The only way out is to create a balance between love and hate. Listen to me."
"What is your purpose?" the prince asked seriously.
"I am just a villain mentor. I just want everyone to go dark. What else can I do? I am not a devil, I am just an ordinary person who simply hopes that the villain can win." Duran said seriously.
"I have never seen such a shameless person!" "If you want the villain to win, you just want the good people to suffer. You are too evil."
"What's the point? Winning or losing is a matter of probability, not good or evil. God created good guys and villains, so he won't only favor good guys. Bad guys can also win, but many bad guys don't know the methods. I teach bad guys how to win.
, is also in line with God's will." Dulan said that he was also acting on behalf of God: "It's like you smuggling dangerous animals. Why do you favor dangerous animals? Isn't it because the lives of animals are also lives?" "I am the same as you,
Stop struggling and accept my advice."
The idiot prince felt that if he did not support him, Dulan would probably take action, and he immediately panicked.
