Chapter 292: The Cabinet Minister Behind Prince Ning, Prince Ning: Let's Make a Big Trouble "rebel?!" Richard's heart skipped a beat when he heard these two words. He looked at Damon in disbelief, who looked so nonchalant. He didn't expect that the person in front of him could say something that would make him rebel. "Do you know what you are saying?" Richard raised his eyes, with a look of "are you kidding me" in his eyes. If you succeed in rebellion, you can step into politics and take power? This is just nonsense. Why don’t you say that if the rebellion is successful, you can become emperor? If the rebellion succeeds, then why should I care about whether I can enter the official career? "Calm down, man. I'm not asking you to rebel with real weapons." Damon suddenly grinned and said, "What I mean is, since the Sutherland family can become the governor of the British Governor's Office, why can't you?" After a brief moment of shock, Richard immediately understood the meaning of Damon's words. What Damon meant was that he, or his own family, would eliminate families like the Sutherland family.
In this way, he completed the class leap and became a powerful official in the British Governorate. As everyone knows, the families that now govern the entire British Colonial Office are the seven major families headed by the Sutherland family. The reason why these families were able to govern the British Governorate was naturally entirely because they took the lead in choosing to submit to the Ming Dynasty, thereby gaining recognition from the court. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that as long as these families did not make big mistakes and remained loyal to the imperial court, the British Provincial Commission would be controlled by these families forever. Of course, that is to say, if he wanted to abolish these families, he could only make his own family valued by the court and then become the powerful ruling family in Britain. "That's impossible..." Just as he understood these reasons, Richard shook his head and said, "The seven major families headed by the Sutherland family are not only recognized by the court, but they also have the support of cabinet ministers behind them." "The Pacification Office stationed in Britain also has a complicated relationship with them. Any form of rebellion will be suppressed instantly," Richard said, slowly standing up and said: "Actually, after listening to you say this, I already have a rough guess in my mind." As he spoke, Richard turned to face Damon, looking down at him from above, and said, "From the beginning to the end, you didn't seem to be worried at all. I guess there must be someone behind you." "Although I don't know how powerful your family is, I think that being able to practice in a formal way and using resources other than spirit stones a hundred years before the Jiajing era must have been very difficult." "It is precisely because the power behind you is not simple that you want to ban the Sutherland family." "Although I have the intention, I will give up when I know that it is impossible. I can't use the future and lives of all my family members to do something spectacular." "Sorry." Richard bowed to Damon and turned to walk out of the church. Having said that, there is nothing more to talk about. As he said, no matter which faction of the Ming Dynasty was behind Damon, he would not easily get involved. He could not gamble his own future with the future of the entire family. He had already seen that the other party deliberately approached him today just to pull his family onto the other party's chariot. As a member of the family, although he is indeed a little inconsiderate and seems a little immature in politics, he can ultimately see much further than others. "The reason why you are unwilling to get involved is because you think the people behind me are not capable of causing any waves in Britain." Damon stood up and said to Richard's back. "Trample, tramp, tramp." Richard's footsteps did not pause at all. He had made up his mind and would not be persuaded.
"Behind me is the ninth prince of the Ming Dynasty, Prince Ning, Zhu Zaihong!" However, at this moment, Damon's voice suddenly sounded behind him, and the next moment Richard's footsteps stopped instantly. "The ninth prince of the Ming Dynasty, Prince Ning Zhu Zaihong!" Richard's eyes widened in surprise at the name. "Is what you said true?!" Richard turned around and stared at Damon. If these were true, the results would be completely different. Now, His Majesty the Emperor, along with the Cabinet, the six ministers, and many high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty, are in seclusion for ten years of training. During the ten years that the emperor and his entourage were in seclusion, the nine princes assisted in managing the cabinet, in other words, they were in charge of the world. Behind Britain's powerful families are the various factions in the cabinet, and it is very likely that Prince Yu and Prince Jing are also among them. However, the Second Prince is not here now, and the power of the cabinet is in the hands of the Ninth Prince. At this time, Damon said that behind him was His Royal Highness Prince Ning, one of the Nine Princes. If he "rebelled", wouldn't it be very easy? Maybe he could really make his family rank among the top. At this moment, Richard admitted that he was indeed moved. "What should I do?" Richard took a deep breath, walked towards Damon and said bluntly: "I, Richard Avery, am the heir of the Avery family!" "I am qualified to represent the family's position!" Richard showed his full sincerity. "Heh," Damon chuckled and said, "Of course I know you can represent the family." "But before that, we still need to gain the support of Sir William Avery. After all, he is the patriarch now." If Richard, the heir of the Everett family, could not represent the family, he would not have gone to all this trouble. "Okay." Hearing Damon say this, Richard opened his mouth and finally nodded in agreement. "Now, we can have a good talk." Damon smiled, stepped forward and stretched out his hand, saying: "Damon Harvey, I am from Kent House, Folkestone Town." "Yes," he said with a smile, looking at Richard's wide eyes, "It's Dr. William Harvey's Harvey family." "Dr. William is my uncle, and my father is Lord Thomas Harvey of York House." Because Britain is now the Province of Provincial Administration, many of the counties and towns that previously existed within its territory are synchronized with the Ming Dynasty. However, the names retain the habits of the British people. For example, Kent House was originally named Kent County. "Hello, Mr. Damon, I apologize for my earlier rudeness." After shaking hands with Damon, Richard immediately bowed to apologize. His words and actions could be said to be very gentlemanly and proper. "I never minded." Damon shrugged, turned around and sat down again, and Richard sat next to him. Then, the two began to chat. It was raining heavily outside the church, but the two of them became more familiar with each other inside the church. Through Damon's narration, Richard also had a deeper understanding of the Harvey family. The Harvey family spans two prefectures, and considering the entire British Governorate, it is a family of considerable size. As for the genius doctor, William Harvey, although he was famous, he even went to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to establish a hospital. But if we talk about his origin, a genius like him is just a branch of the Harvey family. The main line of the family has always been the Damon Harvey family.
Influenced by the large and small immortal sects in the Ming Dynasty, all forces in the world are now working hard to develop immortal sects. Well, some overseas provincial governments are not called sects, but are called certain churches. For example, the Catholic Church, Protestantism, etc. Of course, the supreme beings worshipped by the church are Wanshou Emperor, God Jehovah and the Son Jesus. The archbishop of the church is equivalent to the head of the Ming sect. There are even exchanges between Eastern and Western churches and denominations. Firstly, because of the limited resources within the family, and secondly, due to the perfection of the Ming Dynasty clan concept, the aristocratic families and merchant families of the provincial governments of overseas countries also distinguished between direct and collateral lines. At least, the direct descendants can get a lot of resources in the family. "You've heard about the battle for the throne among the Nine Dragons, right..." Finally, after some chatting and getting to know each other, Damon got down to business. "Yes," Richard nodded and said, "After the fall of the Donglin Party, many small families in Britain that were related to the Donglin Party were also severely punished." "Tsk!" However, as soon as he finished speaking, Damon suddenly sneered and said, "Donglin Party? It's just an episode!" As he said that, Damon said with an excited look: "The real battlefield is in Britain, France, Spain, the Netherlands, etc., in the entire world except Ming Dynasty!" The whole world?! Richard was shocked when he heard Damon's words, but he felt relieved when he thought about the battle for the throne of the Nine Dragons. After all, they are fighting for the position of crown prince! "I'm ready!" Richard quickly adjusted his mindset. He knew that this was an opportunity that he would never have again if he missed it. "Next, in addition to Prince Gong and Prince An, six other princes, including Prince Ding, Prince Ping, Prince Ming, Prince Hui, Prince Xian, and Prince Rui, are trying to fish in troubled waters in the provincial governments of countries other than the Ming Dynasty." "The order from Prince Ning is that if anyone from the Six Princes tries to win us over, we must agree to it and follow their orders!" "The kings will inevitably attack each other, and both will suffer in the end. What we need to do is to make the fight between the kings as big as possible, even if it means turning Britain upside down." "If we delay until ten years later, when the emperor comes out, the mess created by the princes will be out of control, and they will be eliminated." "In this way, His Royal Highness Prince Ning, who is hiding in the dark, will be the final winner." After hearing this, Richard understood that Britain would become a battlefield among kings. "Will we be held accountable afterwards?" Richard asked the question he was most concerned about. "Don't worry, the cabinet ministers will take action. His Royal Highness Prince Ning has eliminated all the hostile brothers, and their territory also needs manpower. We are just changing the way we get on stage." "We are not allowed to be seen in public now. Only after experiencing this battle among the kings, His Royal Highness Prince Ning can stand on equal footing with the other four kings, Prince Yu, Prince Jing, Prince Gong, and Prince An." "Your Majesty will not allow the power among the princes to be unbalanced. As for the princes who are eliminated, no one will care about them." Although he seemed nonchalant, Richard had to admit that he was not as good as him in analyzing the situation thoroughly! "I'll go back and tell my father about this." After hearing the plans, Richard and Damon stood up together. "Then I wish you good luck. I still have to meet people from other families." Damon smiled and shook hands with Richard. Before leaving, he suddenly said, "Remember, you are already on board." After saying that, he turned around and put his hands in the pockets of his leather jacket, then stalked away. Looking at Damon's back, Richard understood the meaning of the other party's last words. He heard the secret today, which was equivalent to boarding King Ning's ship. There were only two ways to get off the ship. Either be exterminated by King Ning's men, or wait for victory! ……
Night. French Provincial Administration, Pontoise. The de la Tour-Noir family, the soft moonlight shines through the window into the patriarch's study where no lights are on. "Tell His Royal Highness Prince Ning that the de La Tour Noir family will absolutely obey his will!" The patriarch, Etienne de la Tour Noir, spoke respectfully to the royal guards sitting on the soft sofa in front of him. "Oh, this wine is good." The young Jinyiwei put down the wine glass in his hand gracefully, stood up and straightened his suit, took out the photo stone to check the time, looked at the nervous Etienne, and said with a smile: "Relax, your family will not become cannon fodder. After all, Pontoise will be handed over to you later." "Yes, yes," Etienne nodded repeatedly. "It's getting late, get some rest." After saying that, the Jinyiwei patted Etienne on the shoulder and turned around to walk away. The bright moonlight shone through the French windows, hiding half of Etienne's body in the shadows. "Whether the de la Tour-Noir family can become one of the top families in France depends on this time!" Etienne's eyes flashed with ambition. At the same time, families large and small in many provincial governments such as Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Wolmer, and Rome secretly responded to King Ning's orders. Just waiting for the forces of the kings to enter. There was another reason why Prince Ning could mobilize the families of the overseas provincial governments to make arrangements so quickly and at the same time, and that was because the power of the cabinet minister behind him took action. In the capital city, in the Ning Prince's Mansion, in the hall. At this time, at the bottom of the hall, sat a middle-aged man in blue. Zhao Dingzhu, whose courtesy name was Changxuan, was the eldest son of Zhao Zhenji! That’s right, the cabinet minister behind Prince Ning was none other than Zhao Zhenji! "Your Highness, my father has already made moves in the provincial governments of Britain, France, Spain, Portugal, and the Netherlands," Zhao Dingzhu stroked his long beard and paused before saying: "And according to the information we received, Prince Ding, Prince Ping, Prince Ming and other kings have used their own connections to contact some families. According to the plan, these families have also expressed their obedience." Hearing this, King Ning, who was sitting in the upper position, showed a satisfied look on his face, nodded and said: "Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing." "Pass the order and have those surrendered families take action. They must provoke a fight between the kings." "From today on, I will make the whole world in chaos." King Ning said, with a fierce look in his eyes, "Only if the chaos gets worse and worse, and it gets out of control, the kings will never be able to turn things around in ten years." "Don't worry, Your Highness." Zhao Dingzhu said, bowing his hands and saying in a persuasive tone: "But Your Highness, you can make trouble, but there must be a bottom line that cannot be crossed." "Otherwise, it would be easy for Prince Gong and Prince An to have opportunities." "Yes," Prince Ning nodded, the fierce look on his face disappeared, replaced by the previous gentle look, and said: "All fights must benefit the court." "I understand. The teacher has said it countless times. Don't worry, Changxuan. I know what to do." "..." (End of this chapter)
