The good mood I had originally had is now half gone.
But this did make Louis break out in a cold sweat.
He just didn't expect that the Enser royal family would be so determined.
He had always thought that Enser's promotion path was not that smooth.
At least on the surface, it is not even as open-minded as its neighbor Tunisia.
After all, Tunisia directly promoted ordinary people to the position of prime minister.
But now looking back, the operation of the empire is more cruel than imagined, but it is also humane. As long as you are strong enough and can pass the probation period, you can share power with the emperor.
No, I'm afraid it's more than that.
After thinking for a while, Louis investigated the information about the emperor recorded in documents of past dynasties.
It would have been fine if he hadn't investigated, but when he did he was really shocked.
Emperors of all dynasties allowed their other halves to enjoy power similar to that of themselves. If the other half still felt that the power was not enough, it was possible that they could pose a threat to the emperor.
There has never been a shortage of emperors dying in Enser's history, but they all have one thing in common, that is, before the emperor dies, he must leave a descendant to the royal family.
——At least that's the theory.
For example, a typical example in history is that the 16th Emperor Ense died early due to various reasons after marrying the imperial concubine.
But the royal bloodline was not cut off, because the 17th emperor, the younger brother of the 16th emperor, was supported by the imperial concubine to come to power, married the imperial concubine and gave birth to the 18th emperor.
All I can say is that it was absolutely amazing.
I have seen emperors who served for short periods of time, but I have never seen anyone treat being an emperor as a fast-moving consumer product.
There was even a case where the prince married a virtuous woman, but the empress did not take action against him. They continued to treat each other with respect and even had children.
What can Louis say.
There is nothing much to say except the number "6".
Of course, if you really don’t covet power at all, then it doesn’t matter.
It’s not impossible to reserve other positions in the empire for you.
Anyway, the more I read, the more I feel that Ensel's past is just too confusing.

What is the innate holy body of Zhihu short essay!
My family members are so unhappy that they can’t live anymore.
Louis didn't want to talk, he just wanted to say that your circle is really messy.
All I can say is that the Enser royal family really worked hard to maintain such a huge empire.
but……
Louis coughed.
This terrible innate holy body seems to have room for manipulation! Louis suddenly had an idea in his mind. This situation seemed to be very attractive to him.
Apart from anything else, if it were in Enser, maybe they could really be given a status besides Beatrice.
If this happened in other countries, the possibility would be almost zero!
However, Louis could also imagine how other countries would evaluate Enser at that time.
But it doesn’t matter. Anyway, it won’t reach my ears, so it’s okay.
What? You say this is unreasonable? Louis had to bring up a question someone asked on Zhihu before: [What do foreigners think of Rabbit being the only country among the five permanent members that does not have white faces? ]
Someone answered below:
"What do you think of the fact that the Eagle Sauce is the only country among the five permanent members that does not have its own language? What do you think of the fact that the Gallic Rooster is the only country among the five permanent members that has surrendered? What do you think of the fact that John Bull is the only country among the five permanent members that treats its son as a grandson?
What do you think of the fact that Russia is the only country among the five permanent members of the UN Security Council whose economy is lower than the top ten?
Whenever Louis thought of the dirty talk from netizens, he laughed every time but could only admit that people could not understand each other.
Besides, every country has its own dark history. If you insist on harping on those mistakes, the topic will become untenable.
Louis thinks that since he respects other countries so much, it should be okay for other countries to respect him as well.
For example, after he becomes the only designated son-in-law of the Royal Family of Enther in the future, it doesn’t matter if few outsiders gossip about Beatrice and Olivia, or even the Black Swan who might come back.
Thinking of this, the originally unhappy mood disappeared.
People who cannot adapt will not be able to get used to the system, but smart people will make good use of the system.
He won this round.
Of course, he also set a small goal for himself.
For example, when the devil Hermer was wreaking havoc on the earth, he showed everyone what it meant to be a "peerless genius".
The emperor's reputation is not earned by words, but by deeds.
Everyone knows that the emperor is sometimes too overbearing in handling matters, but those demigods only dare to speak out in private. They have never seen them stand in public and cheer for the emperor.
Even legends dare not set foot in the territory marked by the emperor.
——Sian and Fafner are well aware of this.
Louis also asked the emperor about this matter when he was conscious.
What the Emperor meant at the time was: "After you defeat the enemy, isn't it normal to threaten them not to cross the line in the future? As long as they don't go too far, I won't bother with them."
Obviously this means that Sean and his wife will take the remains of the Dragon King away, and the Emperor doesn't care.
On the contrary, if you create trouble by causing the Sapphire Dragon Disaster, the chances of being killed are greater.
Oh, by the way, how was the Sapphire Dragon Plague resolved? It is said that Unther organized a group of legendary masters to behead it.
Grass.
I can only say that Sean, Fafner and others are really lucky in this life.
The next thing to arrange is the affairs of the Rockxi Empire.
Although the emperor did not express his opinion clearly, he made his attitude clear.
He hoped that Louis would provide limited help after communicating with the other party.
Not just for Eun-seol, but for himself as well.
The emperor's words, "And you, Louis, you will be the hand that determines whether they will split or prosper. They know this very well," gave Louis a subtle feeling.
After the demiplane was promoted to a world, he could actually be directly regarded as a demigod.
At his level, a whim is not just a simple thought, but also hides a mysterious power of fate.
His instinct told him that the crisis of the Lockexi Empire was closely related to himself.
Yes.
It's not linked to the Enther Empire or Beatrice and the others, but directly to himself.
This aroused his strong curiosity.
He has no ties in this world, yet there are things that can directly involve him.
You know, even the sin that he used the longest, Greed, is related to the Kingdom of Temptation in the original timeline.
Even one of his golden fingers, "Future Diary", is the crystallization of the great sin that Huoguo committed at the cost of his own life.
This also proves one thing, that he and Huoguo are not the same kind of people.
It's not just the souls that are different, there are also significant differences in the bodies themselves.
A very realistic question is, "How can the Sin Crystal be extracted and turned into equipment?"
It is said that there are less than 7 deadly sin crystals found in the entire world, not even enough for each of the Seven Deadly Sins to possess one.
Because there were too few cases, Louis had never thought about this aspect before.
But now he roughly understood some of the prerequisites for the crystallization of sin.
The Roxy Empire used its own miserable situation to prove that killing a deadly sin would transfer the power of that sin to the killer.
But this does not mean it is a good thing.
Because most people have no tolerance for serious sins.
There is a high probability that he will explode and die the moment he bears a great sin.
The second is that the owner of the great sin must have a way to squeeze everything out of him.
The ending of confusing the country is recorded in the Greedy Diary.
He offered his blood, life, strength, soul and everything he could give in exchange for a chance to save the empire.
This was his most persistent thought before he was driven crazy.
This method of giving up everything is the key to changing everything in the Greedy Diary.
The cruelest thing is... using this method, even if any changes are made, it will have nothing to do with him.
The end of the corrupted nation as recorded in the Greedy Diary is that "the greedy king will end his short life in a cage, and from then on, all references to his existence in the world will be erased."
Apart from these two conditions, Louis felt that there were other possibilities.
For example, "The host of the sin must make the choice voluntarily and cannot be forced."
Otherwise, judging from the nature of the wizards who conducted the mortal sin experiments in various countries, Louis felt that they might have conducted experiments that met the first two conditions.
It's just that because the host of the sin was not willing, no sin crystals were precipitated in the end.
So in a sense, the relationship between Louis and Huguo is more important than the relationship between him and Beatrice.
Because on a causal level, Louis is the true relic of the confused nation.
It's just that this statement is too hellish, and Louis has always been unwilling to admit it.
"What on earth did the Lockheed Empire hide..."
Louis was really curious this time.
What on earth could be related to a visitor from another world like him? Wait, could it be that people from my hometown really exist in this world?
But that's not right either.
In this world, he saw almost no traces related to the core civilization circle of his previous life.
Even if there is, it is just a seemingly coincidence.
Could it be that when he traveled through time, he brought some things from his hometown with him, but because of the time travel problem, he didn't bring them with him.
That's even more inappropriate.
There's nothing valuable in his house. It can't be the unfinished can of Coke, right?
But he was indeed moved.
His greed for knowledge keeps him always curious about the unknown.
Especially when he is very curious, he has to find out.
After all, there are fewer and fewer things in this world that can stop him from investigating.
The next day, after drafting the official letter, Louis arranged for someone to use a magic circle to transmit it to the Rockhi Empire.
The main contents include the following points.
The first point is that due to Enther's current strategic problems, there are quite a number of powerful people who need to digest and absorb the resources of the Cosmic Serpent, and they are unable to go to participate in the war.
Secondly, in principle, Louis allowed the Cursed Legion to go and help, but the prerequisite was that the Roxxi Empire showed its willingness to actively fight back. Otherwise, there was no reason to use Enther's people to fill the Roxxi Empire's own holes.
The third point is that we ask the Rockxi Empire to invite more powerful groups. Enser can consider helping to invite them as appropriate, and Enser cannot just go alone.
Louis' attitude was very clear. He did not want the empire to be seen as a small group that "sticks together".
This did not fit with his vision of the empire.
His experience in his previous life told him that if he had the opportunity to act alone, he should never think of banding together and pinning others down.
There is no permanent alliance.
Then the next day, Bart Gene called.
After connecting to the communication crystal again, Louis discovered that the face of the head of the Bart family had visible fatigue.
"Greetings, Master Bart."
"Louis, we have received the official letter. There are no problems with the first and third items. We will need some time for the second one, but we can guarantee that it will be processed before you come to Roxy."
"This is not good, Master Bart." Louis shook his head and said, "If I leave after I get to your place, it will not be so easy to leave."
He was worried that the Bart family would take advantage of the information gap and invite various forces in the name of Enser. When the promise was made, other forces would come to inform him of the matter. Even if he rejected it, it would be difficult for him to leave directly.
If he really had to hold his nose and endure it, he would probably explode with anger.
But Bart Gene shook his head and said:
"I know what you're worried about, but don't worry about it. We had already contacted all parties before this happened, especially the church, which arrived early."
Bart Gene said helplessly.
Their credibility didn't decline so quickly with Louis.
Logically speaking, Roxy is still the number one empire of mankind, although now with the emergence of Louis, it is hard to say whether it can maintain its number one position.
But he lost his trust so quickly, it seemed that the other party really noticed something.
But he had a clear conscience.
Because seeking cooperation with the church was a plan that their group had made earlier.
Louis looked at him quietly, and after a moment he said:
"I'll give you an answer tomorrow at the latest."
He has an informant in the Roxy Empire.
"OK."
Bart Gene smiled simply.
In this regard, they have made a lot of preparations.
After hanging up the call, Louis immediately contacted Grace.
When I saw Grace again, she was praying alone in the temple.
When the communication light came on, she was still kneeling on the ground.
Louis glanced at her and said, "Grace, how have you been lately?"
"Mr. Caesar." Grace cheered, "The Saint's practice is finally starting to make progress."
"Roxy has started to allow you to preach?"
"right."
“What about other churches?”
"Everything has been allowed. The people of Roxie are still curious about why the clergy, who used to only see a few of them, have been visiting so frequently recently."
Louis sighed and said, "It seems that they have spent a lot of money to guard against the enemy."
Grace said softly, "There's no need to be so repulsive. After all, the church itself may harbor filth, but in general, we are good."
"You don't understand." Louis shook his head and said, "The church is the pen of public opinion. If we let them take root in the Rockhi Empire, we don't know whether it will be good or bad after a few hundred years."
He always felt that introducing the church would be a temporary solution to the current Locke Empire.
Even if it can help Roxy overcome difficulties in the short term, in the long run, it is no different from chronic suicide.
After all, they didn’t bring in one church at a time, but a group of them.
