Lord of Plants

Chapter 249 The Puppet King

Forget it, why think so much, no matter what Puxi VII's plan is, Lin Mu will not go to the capital anyway, at least not now, so there is no need to worry!
"Sankemu, you're back. By the way, you didn't bring any delicious food back?" The wanderer ran over excitedly, and the first sentence was this, which made Lin Mu roll his eyes. It's completely lost, so Lin Mu said angrily: "No, there is nothing!"

"That's right, let's lie down in the deep sea with me!"

"Deep sea, what are you doing there?"

"Go there to play. There are many interesting things in the deep sea. Of course, there are a lot of things on the bottom of the sea that I haven't eaten. They should be delicious, so we can try them all and eat them all!" Wandering is so As he said that, Lin Mu rolled his eyes again, and sure enough, this foodie still kept the essence of his three words, and it was still for food!

Eating, drinking, and having fun are the four most basic human enjoyments, but Lin Shu has never seen that someone can enjoy these four most basic things to the point of wandering.

Simple and pure, sometimes, Lin Mu has to envy the simplicity and purity of wandering, because it is so simple, it is good to live simply!

"Deep sea, to be honest, I haven't really seen the sea yet!" Lin Mu suddenly thought that he had never seen what the real sea looked like. Lin Mu lived in a city close to the sea before, but the distance from the sea The place where Lin Mu lives is still far away, so Lin Mu has never been to the seaside, let alone see and feel the vastness of the sea with his own eyes.

"Then let's go together, we can also catch mermaids!"

Mermaids, on earth, mermaids may be just a race that exists in fantasy, but in this magical world, mermaids really exist.And the mermaids are still the darlings of the deep sea. It is said that they are the children of the sea god, so they are also the royal family of the deep sea and have the supreme right to rule!

On the continent of Zeia, catching a mermaid is much more sensational than catching an elf.Rare is the most expensive thing, a mermaid will definitely sell for a lot of money, of course, the premise is... the mermaids who are the royal family of the deep sea don't chase and kill them!Otherwise, if the Sea Clan launched a major cleansing, about half of the humans in the mainland would have to die!
If it wasn't for the fact that the Sea Clan didn't adapt to the inland environment, otherwise the Sea Clan's population was several times larger than that of humans, and the Sea Clan would have invaded the entire continent long ago!
"It's fine to catch mermaids or something. I just want to take a vacation, and enjoy the scenery of the sea casually! But I can't go there for the time being. I'll finish the matter here first, and talk about it in a few days!"

"Oh, then I've been waiting for a few days, by the way, boss, are you going?"

Ran curled his lips and said: "I don't like the water environment, and it's the kind of environment that affects me too much, just go by yourself!"

Burning is a fire element, and I don't like the water environment, after all, water and fire are incompatible, and water can restrain fire!Especially in the deep sea environment, almost all water elements, fire elements are so thin that there is almost no fire element, which can be said to weaken the strength of burning to the extreme.Unless it is a strong man of the holy rank who has his own domain, otherwise he is looking for death in that environment, but even a strong man of the holy rank cannot expand his domain all the time. It's too fragile!

"Oh, that's a pity, but it's okay, I will bring you a lot of delicious food!" Wandering said so, Ran shook his head and said: "Forget it, you should keep it for yourself, By the way, Lin Mu, I'm leaving for the holy capital tomorrow, so please take care of the wandering and running water!"

"What are you doing there?"

"Although the Kingdom of Stars was destroyed, the third and fifth princes still survived. Now the land of the Kingdom of Stars has been reclaimed. Logically speaking, it should be returned to the original owner, but the problem is that there are now two princes in the , there are two heirs, who should return the land of the kingdom? Besides, even if one is chosen to return the land to him, with his current strength, can he hold the land?"

"Unfortunately, these two princes didn't think so much. They only want to be kings now. In order to fight for this position, the two have already started fighting among themselves, and they have reached certain agreements with people from other kingdoms or empires." !" Ran shook his head, feeling like he was looking at an idiot!
"Agreement, shouldn't it be to support one of them and become a puppet king!" Lin Mu immediately thought of this possibility. There is no way. In the history of China, there are too many such things. Cao Cao, Dong Zhuo and other treacherous officials did this. Yes, and the most famous puppet emperor in history should be Liu Chan, but the allusion that he is reluctant to miss Shu is still circulating!

"You guessed it right, the land of the Kingdom of Stars is like a piece of fat right now. Those hungry wolves are staring at this piece of meat, eager to step forward and bite a piece of it. Of course, if they can eat it all by themselves, of course it is The best way, and the best way to monopolize it, of course, is to support the nominal owner and declare the ownership of this piece, so that other wolves can't do anything!"

"Then you went to the holy place to give advice to the two princes?"

"No, I just provide them with a more suitable partner for cooperation, such as...you!"

"Me!" Lin Mu wondered, why is it still my business!

"Yes, it's you. If you say that the other kingdoms and those three empires are like wolves, tigers and leopards, they stare at the fat of the Star Kingdom. Once they have the opportunity, they will definitely swallow it, even the bones. If you don't spit it out, then you will be different." After thinking about it, Ran thought of a very appropriate adjective, "You are like an elephant, possessing shocking strength and size, but with a gentle personality , to cooperate with you to seek your asylum, at least you will not lay hands on them!"

"That's right, San Kemu is a good person!" Well, Wandering sent Lin Mu a big good person card!
"I understand what you mean, but I'm just a marquis, a small lord, why should I provide them with shelter?"

"Hmm..." After thinking about it, Ran gave up explaining to Lin Mu, because there are too many things involved in explaining. "I can't explain it to you in too much detail. In short, it's just one sentence. I have a way to do it. Now I just need your authorization to let me do it. As long as you agree, I will use your name!"

Lin Mu thought for a while, and was silent for a long time, but unfortunately, Lin Mu was completely blank about such matters in the political arena, and he didn't understand the truth at all. This is why Ran couldn't explain too much to Lin Mu. After thinking for a long time There is no way to analyze the stakes.

But thinking of the tragic history of China being invaded by foreign powers and almost becoming a colony, Lin Mu inevitably felt a little sympathy for the Star Kingdom. With such a little compassion, Lin Mu agreed to let Ran try. "Okay, then I will leave this matter to you."

"Aha, so boring!" Listening to the two talking about complicated things like politics, wandering felt very boring, and couldn't help yawning, sitting on a chair with eyes closed, and fell asleep like this!
"By the way, Ran, do you have any opinions on how to deal with those alien races and nobles?"

"For those aliens who are unhappy, a soft policy is needed. You have done a good job of this, but you must maintain the authority of those in power so that they are afraid of you. Personal force and armed forces, these two Points are the focus of the right to speak, as far as I know, Lin Mu, your army is already very powerful, but it has not been organized into a legion, nor does it have enough records to show the strength of the legion."

Regarding this point, Lin Mu nodded in agreement, and at the same time decided to build up the legion in the shortest possible time. As for the record, it is a bit difficult, but there is no rush, so take your time!
"For the nobles, my suggestion is to suppress a group and support a group! Suppress a group, directly extinguish their arrogance, kill chickens to make them fear you, and support some civilians to become nobles, so that those civilians The favorability of you has increased a lot, and there will be more voices of support. And this part of the new nobles who are raised by you will also be your confidantes. You can distribute a small part of the rights and interests of the chamber of commerce to They, let them taste the sweetness, they will be devoted to you!"

"As for those old nobles, when they find that this is not going to work, there are only three options they can do, either to decline a little bit, or to leave Linyi Province and go to other places. And the last choice, Just let go of your airs and come to beg you, surrender!"

If it burns, Lin Mu's thinking becomes clearer all of a sudden. Combined with the history that Lin Mu has read before, Lin Mu already has his own general idea and knows what to do!

"I know what to do, so I'll deal with the accumulated troubles first!" Thinking of Xiaoya and Wen Yali's hard work, Lin Mu felt very sorry, and the guilty Lin Mu immediately went to deal with official duties!

Looking at the back of Lin Mu leaving, a mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Ran's mouth, and he said lightly: "In this way, my plan is one step closer! Noah, Noah, you want to drag me into the water, but I never Before releasing Asmodeus, I already expected such a day, everything is in my plan, and no one can stop me!"
