"But these three warriors are not in the imperial city. They are guarding important positions on the border of the Blazing Empire." Osuo said this, disrupting Diao Si's train of thought.
None of them are in the imperial city. This is probably the intention of the royal family. They arranged these representative powerful warriors on the border in the hope of stabilizing the situation in the imperial city and leaving the major clans in the imperial city without leaders. Naturally, it will not be easy. What are your thoughts and actions
"Then can your Majesty clearly understand the character and temperament of these three warriors, for example, who will be absolutely loyal to you, even if you want to order her to give up her military power, or even raise troops against those powerful families..." Diao Si continued to prompt.
"You..." Osuo suddenly interrupted Diao Si again. This was because what he said was too discordant. Because of the complicated relationship between the royal family and those big families, some words were very sensitive.
Seeing that Osuo was just thinking like that, Diao Si continued: "Reform is always not easy, and the possible consequences must be fully considered, so your Majesty must have a strong and absolutely loyal army..."
"That's enough!" After hearing Diao Si's words, Osuo interrupted him sharply again. Obviously, Diao Si's words are inconsistent with her thoughts. She may think that only a few policies are needed to reverse the entire situation.
Diao Sicai is not that stupid. Even if he really has a simple and feasible way, he will not tell Ou Suo like this, because Ou Suo, the master, has no good intentions. If she gets a way to deal with it, she will definitely get rid of Diao Si. .
So Diao Si did this to protect himself. He wanted to drag this matter out slowly, as long as Osuo still wanted to rely on him and thought he was useful. Only by procrastinating in this way can he deploy his conspiracy. As long as he can gradually become proficient in manipulating magic and reach the point where he can control Oso at any time, then all problems will not be a problem.
"Are you really sure you can do it?" After a long silence, Osuo asked Diao Si again.
Diao Si hesitated after hearing this, and then replied: "Yes, if I can be familiar with the entire structure of the empire, I will be absolutely sure that I can do it."
"This is a very important thing. I hope you are not saying this just to deal with me..." Osuo stared into Diao Si's eyes and said in a threatening tone.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, you should know who is responsible for the food task we just solved, right? As long as Your Majesty can give me the authority to understand the management structure of the empire, I will naturally be able to make those families submit to Your Majesty's feet."
Diao Si was very confident, Osuo thought for a while, and then asked him: "How can I let you understand the Blazing Empire more comprehensively?"
"It's very simple. Give me a management assistant, such as Mr. Ouya, who went to Blazing Lake City with me last time. Give me a little more time, and I will naturally get the information I need from her."
Ou Suo did not immediately agree to Diao Si's request, especially the mention of Ou Ya, which made the suspicious Ou Suo even more worried. Ou Suo's reaction made Diao Si regret it. He shouldn't have brought up Ou Ya's name like this, because his children's personal relationship was so troublesome.
Ou Suo knew that Diao Si had been with Ou Ya for a while, and even saved Ou Ya regardless of his own safety. How could he let Ou Ya cooperate with him again? Wouldn't it arouse Orso's suspicion again
"No, although Ouya is very capable, she is too young after all. I will give you someone who is very familiar with the empire, but you must not tell her or anyone else except me about our plans..." Ouya Saw responded.
After hearing this, Diao Si immediately bowed to Osuo and said, "Yes!... Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this matter is so important, I will not take my own life for granted."
Then Ou Suo asked Diao Si to bring a bunch of information about those powerful families back to his residence. In fact, these information were not of much use. The contents may have been mentioned by Ou Suo just now.
But after returning to his residence, Diao Si slowly took a look at the relationship network of those families. He found that not only were these powerful families closely related to each other, but some families also had a small number of in-law relationships with the royal family. .
This should be the method adopted by the royal family to stabilize their status, but it seems that except for the emperor's grant of marriage, those powerful families do not like men from the royal family marrying into their families, so this situation is relatively rare.
It's not that those families don't want to be relatives of the royal family, but because the royal family members are usually relatively weak, so a weak father will naturally affect the offspring they have, and they would rather choose to make the family stronger.
Therefore, they will only choose to intermarry with powerful families, so as to ensure that their offspring will be born with extraordinary physiques, like Hao Qi and Gong Long. This is something that a weak father of the royal family cannot give birth to, so they marry The royal family is destined not to have too close relationships.
But this is not absolute. There are many intermarriages between the royal family and the Zhantian family and other mage families. It can be said that almost every generation has married. Zhanqing's father is even Ou Suo's uncle. This is determined by the fact that the mage profession only requires wisdom and does not have excessive requirements for physical fitness.
No wonder the Zhanqing family has been the national master of the Blazing Empire for generations. In fact, they can be said to be almost integrated with the royal family. According to the habits of human patrilineal clans on earth, they are as close as one family.
Therefore, this complicated family relationship is ultimately the conflict between the two family systems of warriors and mages. The reason why Ou Suo chose Diao Si to eliminate the threat from the warrior family is actually because she wanted to deal with this powerful enemy for her mage family group.
As for the coup of the Mage Association that occurred in the Blazing Empire, relying on those warrior families to settle this history may be an explanation that the royal family found after they failed to deal with the warrior families.
From this point of view, the overt and covert fighting between the two major family systems did not just appear in recent years. It may have lasted for hundreds of years. It has never stopped even from the moment the Blazing Empire was established.
Understanding the history of the Blazing Empire will help Diao Si carry out his big plan, so when he proposed to be familiar with the Blazing Empire, Diao Si was still preparing for his big plan.
It wasn't until that night that Orso finally arranged for the person who assisted Diao Si to come find him. She is also a woman, but an old woman in her sixties or seventies.
No matter what, Diao Si didn't want another beautiful woman to distract him at such a critical moment. This old woman was chosen by Oso. Considering her age, she should know everything about the Blazing Empire.
"Hello, what should I call you? Sir." Diao Si glanced at the old guy and greeted her immediately.
Let's make a good impression first. This old guy is probably from the royal family, so she should still be in a high position, so it's best to respect her a little bit.
"Well, my name is Ou Qi. I used to manage the empire's historical documents and other tasks. Now I am a senior tutor at the Royal Academy..." She manages historical documents. This may be one of the reasons why Ou Suo asked her to come over.
But this old guy talked more about her deeds than Ouya, and Diao Si couldn't find a chance to interrupt. Maybe Ouya will be like her in the future, there are many similarities between them.
"He is also from the Royal Academy? Sir, you must also know Master Ou Ya, right?" When Diao Si said this, Ou Qi was immediately stunned without saying a word.
"I know, she is my student." Ou Qi took a while to say this. It seems that her relationship with Ou Ya is not much better, and maybe there are still a lot of conflicts.
"Really? Your student is very smart. She recently solved the food crisis for the empire..." Diao Si continued, and Ou Qi's expression began to change. She looked very unhappy.
That's fine. Diao Si wants to get to know this old guy through this kind of test first, so that he can better communicate with her and ensure that he can get the most useful information from her.
"Okay, the emperor asked me to come here to assist you. It is not suitable for us to discuss others at this time. I hope you can understand." Ou Qi said this, which shows that her relationship with Ou Ya is really not too good.
Well, in fact, Diao Si doesn't have to worry about her relationship with Ou Ya. He just needs all the information she knows, and then uses this information to control the entire Blazing Empire and carry out his big plan. (To be continued)
