I am a director in Ark. If I am not banned, I will be considered successful.

"...Is Emperor Jiajing a good emperor?" Wei Yanwu felt bitter in his heart, but he quickly calmed down on the surface and asked Chen Huijie with a glimmer of hope.

"According to Chen Qi, it doesn't count. He seems to be a tyrant."

"call……"

Fortunately, fortunately, he is actually a tyrant. When Wei Yanwu heard that he was playing a tyrant, he felt for the first time that this word was so familiar. He straightened his back again, and after a little thought, he said to Chen Huijie:

"Xiao Chen, bring me some wine. During this time, let's put aside the government affairs of Longmen. I will take you and your aunt Wenyue to Longmen tonight. Let's go shopping together and have a good rest for a day."

"... Lao Wei? May 5th has already passed. What are you doing?"

Chen Huijie blinked when he heard this, and looked at Wei Yanwu in front of him with a strange expression, as if she was surprised to hear the word "rest" from the mouth of this workaholic.

However, Wei Yanwu showed a profound smile on his face. After taking a puff of cigarette, he said to Chen Huijie:

"Xiao Chen, didn't that guy ask me to play the role of a tyrant? This is to find out what it feels like to be a tyrant in advance, so that when I go to the palace, I can get into the role earlier."

And, let his brother and all the officials see him as a "tyrant". That guy always likes to choose people who fit the character when filming, which helps him a lot. This time he wants to play badly so that his brother can sit on the throne safely.

However, the Great Yan Emperor, who was now far away in the palace, was in sync with his brother. After the movie "The Return of the Witch King" was finished, he immediately debated with all the officials about Chen Qi coming to the palace to film.

"Please do not persuade me any more. I have made up my mind. Marquis Liewen's film has reminded me that I must not perish in comfort."

The Emperor of Great Yan waved his hand, forcing all officials to shut up, because this time, the reasons given by His Majesty the Emperor were quite sufficient, and even affected the rise and fall of the entire Great Yan Dynasty.

"Now, this movie reflects the shortcomings of many countries. They are born in trouble and die in comfort. Why do so many countries have the "Witch King" come again? Da Yan must not repeat this mistake."

"Perhaps, Da Yan will also rise and fall in the future, but I don't want Da Yan to see such a situation under my governance. Therefore, all officials of Da Yan and I must have a sense of crisis at all times, so that we can work diligently and be worthy of the people of Da Yan."

"I have made up my mind and invited Marquis Liewen to the palace to film. Whether he wants to satirize, criticize, or even scold like in "Yes, Prime Minister", I will listen. I hope you can listen too. Don't let this magic mirror reflect your own face."

"Your Majesty is wise..."

With such words, what else can the officials say? Since their majesty is not afraid of remonstrance, most officials are naturally not afraid either. But some officials are still trembling with fear, fearing that Chen Qi's fire will burn them.

What the officials didn't know was that the Emperor of Dayan was so insistent because he had his own plans. He had long known that Chen Qi's work would invite his brother to the palace to play the role of the emperor, so he would naturally agree to it. He even prepared the dragon throne and dragon robes, waiting for his brother to come.

At that time, he would use the excuse of letting his brother "immerse himself in the role" to let him enjoy the feeling of handling state affairs for a while - especially since he knew that Wei Yanwu was more capable than him, so he would definitely review these memorials better than him.

And he can also take advantage of this time to have a good rest and relax... Thinking of this, the Great Yan Emperor, who had been trembling with fear for so many years, couldn't wait to see his brother's feedback on "enjoying" being the emperor.

Chapter 265: The thank-you gift Chen Qi wants, the reunion of Lin Guang's family

The Emperor of Great Yan has already sent someone to rush to invite Chen Qi to the Imperial City. Chen Qi has also been watching the drama in Leitania recently - to be more precise, the drama led by the Twin Queens.

"Return of the Witch King" has been aired for a while. As expected, this movie has set off a wave of enthusiasm in Leitania, allowing many young people in Leitania to re-recognize the legendary Witch King. Leitania has set off a wave of "Witch King" enthusiasm for a while, and more and more people have begun to worship the Witch King as expected because of this movie.

It is human nature to admire the strong, and this time Chen Qi's movie did not show the Witch King's strength in magic. However, his courage, irresistible charm, and concern for the Leithanians in the movie still made many Leithanians who considered themselves "pure" have a strong admiration for the Witch King.

The remnants of the Witch King also took advantage of this trend and began to carry out extensive propaganda and agitation. For a while, many young people who were quick-witted joined these organizations in an attempt to restore the Witch King's rule to Letania.

At this time, the Gemini Queens made a decision that the remnants found strange - they actually ordered the release of all the "remnants of the Witch King" who had been captured before, no matter they were nobles or civilians, all of them were pardoned and sent home.

However, the reason for the pardon was shocking: "seeking trouble, disrupting public order, and being released after serving the sentence."

Such a statement confused the remnants of the Witch King and the residents of Leithnia. What happened to the agreement that anyone who participated in the movement of the remnants of the Witch King would be killed without mercy? How did it become a matter of provoking trouble and disrupting public order?

However, before the people of Leitania could solve the mystery and the emperors and princes didn't know what the twin queens were up to, they issued a statement like this:

"The laws of Leithania have always been fair and just, and every arrest is naturally justified. Although all the civilians released this time were imprisoned for 'colluding with the remnants of the Witch King', there was no substantial evidence, so they were only punished for the damage and adverse effects they caused."

"Since we sisters overthrew the Witch King's brutal rule, we have always used fair and just policies and light taxes to improve the social environment of Leitania after the Witch King's tyranny. Without evidence, we will not treat you as a criminal. Please rest assured, citizens of Leitania."

"All the Leitanian citizens who were released have been cleared of suspicion. We have also carried out labor reform and ideological education on them. Leitania will always act in accordance with the law."

The statement made by the Gemini Queens also made many Leitanians whose children or family members were imprisoned feel fortunate. Facing their family members who had returned one by one, they all expressed their gratitude to the Gemini Queens. For a while, they actually won back the hearts of many people.

But after this move, the Gemini Queen had another trick up her sleeve. The next day, a dozen of the Witch King's remnants were hanged for treason in a public execution, and their heads were displayed to the public. After the public execution, the Gemini Queen sent someone to publicize the reason for the execution on TV.

"These fourteen people who were hanged were all proven to be the remnants of the Witch King. They attempted to restore the Witch King's brutal rule. Their treason has been confirmed."

"But, treason is enough to get them executed. But the reason for such a severe punishment is that in addition to treason, they also secretly carried out human experiments left by the Witch King, causing the deaths of countless Leithanian children. Their crimes are unforgivable!"

"The Twin Queens have ordered that anyone who is confirmed to be the remnant of the Witch King and directly participated in the human experiments left by the Witch King will be sentenced to death. I hope that if citizens see suspicious people, they can report them to various judicial institutions. If the situation is confirmed after investigation, we will give a reward of up to 300,000 Leitania coins and guarantee to protect the lives of you and your family."

With such an order, the Gemini Queens' tolerance for the innocent and severe punishment for the criminals allowed the laws of Leitania to be defended again. It also made many Leitanian youths who had joined the Witch King's remnant organization on impulse start to think again, whether their decisions were correct.

Human experiments are absolutely despised and not allowed in any country on Terra. This is also true in Leitania, and the countless human experiments conducted by the Witch King are actions that no one with a conscience would accept - not to mention that the Witch King's remnants captured Leitania's children!

Under such circumstances, within a few days, many judicial institutions in Leithania received reports. When the spies of "The Queen's Voice" quickly arrested the remnants and fulfilled the first promised funds, they began to publicize it extensively.

All of a sudden, the remnants of the Witch King, who had gradually surfaced because of their growing power, were reported by the people of Leithania. They were turned from hope in people's eyes to fat meat in people's eyes. In the face of real money, their hot-blooded enthusiasm seemed so vulnerable.

After all, although they inherited the Witch King's philosophy, none of them could be called the "Witch King's successor." And the only successor disappeared without a trace after the filming.

"It seems that the two queens have figured out how to control the situation in Leitania."

On the top of the tower, Chen Qi, Black Key, White Chalk, Tallulah and Maenna, came to the Gemini Queen again. After a few days of preparation, the Gemini Queens have achieved results that they could not achieve in the previous months.

It's not because they haven't figured out who the real remnants of the Witch King are, but because of the lost hearts of the people of Leithania, the change in attitude of the people towards the remnants of the Witch King, which is something they could never achieve with their previous methods.

The twin queens originally thought that the current crisis could only be resolved by either falling out with the emperor or the people. But now, the people are slowly regaining their confidence in them, and there is no need to offend the emperor. The peace of Leitania can continue with minimal losses.

"Thank you Director Chen Qi for your guidance. It has opened our eyes."

The White-haired Queen also took the initiative to speak on behalf of her sisters, and her advice to Chen Qi helped them figure out what the best solution was for Leitania's current situation.

"Director Chen Qi uses this movie to tell us sisters that the Witch King is not here, but in everyone's heart... In the final analysis, it is because we sisters are not capable enough that most of the affairs nowadays are controlled by the emperors and princes. We have become the weapons for the emperors and princes to overthrow the Witch King's rule."

"But, we sisters will also prove that we can do what the Witch King did. We don't need war, we don't need to enslave anyone, and we don't need to sacrifice anyone. We can still let the people of Leithania live a peaceful and prosperous life."

"——I saw several nobles leave earlier. There is one person we know, Earl Gertrude." At this moment, Black Key finally took off his hated Witch King costume. Standing with White Kettle, he caught a glimpse of this familiar face and said:

"It was she who invited Bai Ke and I to Visheheim, saying that she would crack our 'Voice of the World'. But after we were taken away by the Queen's spies, we learned that her plan was to make our 'Voice of the World' resonate and kill a large number of infected people in exchange for the Witch King's remnants' recognition of her."

"...But judging from the way she left just now, the two queens seem to be planning to pardon her and entrust her with important tasks?"

"She is very useful." The White-haired Queen did not deny this, and replied to Black Key who seemed to be complaining:

"Although she supports the remnants of the Witch King, she has not joined them. She has ambitions to climb up the social ladder, but has no one to support her. It can be said that she will work for whoever can give her power and wealth."

"She will be a good start. We will have many confrontations with the emperors in the future. The method used by the Witch King to cultivate his confidants is worth learning."

"We sisters also feel that we should not completely deny the actions of the Witch King. Whether he is a sinner or a hero, it should be left to history and future generations to judge... I believe that future generations will give a proper evaluation of the Witch King."

"It's good that the two queens can think so." Chen Qi smiled faintly when he heard this. The Gemini queens were obviously sisters who were temporarily put together to act as mascots. In politics and many other aspects, they were indeed not as strong as the Witch King, but judging from the fact that they were able to stabilize the situation after the Witch King was stabbed, and kept Letania unmoved for so long, it showed that they still had some abilities.

They are also people who just lack support, so now, Chen Qi has given them certain support so that they can free up their hands to reform the current situation in Leithania. At least for now, they are doing a good job.

"Well, my two queens, now that the matter has been settled, should I also ask for some compensation?"

"Of course, Director Chen Qi, please tell me, as long as we can give it, we can give you whatever you want."

The Gemini Queens were not worried about the remuneration at all. Although Leitania had nothing else to offer, it had a rich historical heritage and many world-famous works of art, any one of which was a national treasure. She was not worried at all about not being able to pay Chen Qi's remuneration.

However, when Chen Qi saw that the twin queens agreed, he also cast his gaze to the silent but anxious Mayenna, and said without hesitation:

"To be honest, the person next to me is the acting head of the Casimir Linguang family, Mauna Linguang. He has been helping our crew to find his missing brother and sister-in-law, and the parents of his two nieces."

"And I got some gossip that those two are now 'visitors' in Leitania?"

"Although I have only heard it from others, now that I am here, I will ask. If possible, can the two queens allow the two heads of the Linguang family to leave Leitania? I believe that they have been guests for so long, they should have had enough of it, right?"

However, no one expected that the "reward" that Chen Qi had spent so much effort to get was actually the two parents of the Lin Guang family. Even Ma Enna, who was standing by, did not expect that Chen Qi would use his brother and sister-in-law as a reward.

Mainna originally wanted to wait for Chen Qi to leave and then ask the twin queens alone about the whereabouts of his brother and sister-in-law. His goal was just to get some information. As long as he knew that his brother and sister-in-law were in Leithania and were safe, he could also convey the good news to his two nieces in Rhodes Island that their parents were fine.

Ma Enna never thought of asking Chen Qi for help, or rather, he was grateful that Chen Qi was willing to let Ma Enna use the reputation of their crew to find his brother and sister-in-law in various countries. He never thought that the crew was busy shooting a movie, and the reward was actually the return of his brother and sister-in-law.

For a moment, Mainna subconsciously grasped the sword at his waist with one hand. His expression still looked indifferent, but the nervousness and excitement in his heart could not be concealed at all.

Not long after, the twin queens looked at each other in bewilderment, and it was the white-haired queen who responded first, saying:

"...Director Chen Qi is so generous, we certainly won't deny you this honor."

"Someone, go summon our guest generals Snits Linguang and Yolanta Linguang. Thank them for everything they have done to protect us. Now, we should respectfully see our guests off."

As soon as the white-haired princess finished speaking, Mainna finally let go of the hand that had been gripping the hilt of the sword. He slowly raised his head, his chest heaving violently, and he swallowed all the sobs and bitterness.

At that moment, in Chen Qi's eyes, Mainna's aura, which was originally like a restrained sword, seemed to be out of his body. He knew that this ranger had finally unloaded the burden at this moment, and his light could finally shine again.

Chapter 266: The Linguang family reunited, Chen Qi received the witch king's horn

Chen Qi and his group waited for a while, and soon they saw a spy coming in front of them. After bowing very respectfully, he said:

"Master Chen Qi, the 'reward' you requested has been brought."

"Brother!"

However, before Chen Qi could react, the moment Maenna saw the two people behind the spy, he made a call that surprised Chen Qi and others, and immediately rushed forward and came in front of the two Kurantas who also had bright golden hair.

Mainna's brother and sister-in-law, Margaret and Maria's parents, Snitz and Yolanta. These two heroes of the Linguang family disappeared late at night. Mainna has searched for them in various countries and asked everyone she could, but without exception, no one knows where they went, and those who know will never speak.

In the past, there were still letters sent to them, but in recent years, there has been no news from the two. Manna had already given up the idea that the two were still alive... He just wanted to find them, at least to give an explanation to the two children.

He had to make sure that there were no worries before he could really do what he had to do. He couldn't just act on his temper - if they were still alive, his impulsive behavior would cause them to die.

Now, seeing his brother and sister-in-law still alive again, one can imagine how excited Mainna was. However, when he came in front of his brother and sister-in-law, he stopped again and did not speak for a long time.

"…Maenna?"

The one who broke the silence was Maina's brother Snitzer, but he didn't seem surprised that Maina could find them. Obviously, when Maina followed Chen Qi's crew, they had heard about it even in the tower. Maina had been working diligently in the crew for so long, playing various roles, and his purpose was the same.

Because of this, the couple understood how much effort Maenna had made to find them. After the brothers looked at each other for a long time, it was the elder brother Snitzer who breathed a sigh of relief, and then with a bit of guilt, he said to his younger brother sincerely:

"You've had a hard time during this period, Mauna."

“…I’m glad you’re back.”

Maenna slowly closed his eyes. He didn't really want to cry in public, and he wasn't used to such a warm, fairy-tale-like occasion. When he opened his mouth, he didn't say "I miss you so much", but complained:

"But I won't say anything for helping you take care of Margaret and Maria for so many years. Just think of me as an uncle raising two half-biological children."

"However, why didn't you send any letters in all these years? There were some at the beginning, but they disappeared later. Did you write them in advance? Did you know the arrangements of the Supervisory Commission a long time ago, so you wrote several years of letters in advance?"

"And...you didn't even tell me about this? Margaret and Maria are children. Do you think I'm a child too?"

"Uh……"

However, when Manna spoke, the strong resentment left Snitz and Yolanta speechless. Because Manna was right, they were "mortgaged" to Leithania by the Supervisory Commission, because the black-haired queen could hardly exert her fighting power, and had to be on guard against the actions of the Witch King and the emperors as "part of diplomacy".

Therefore, any form of delivery via letters is absolutely impossible. They knew this and prepared family letters several years in advance... After all, the Supervisory Committee would "mortgage" them, and if they died, the Supervisory Committee would naturally notify their families, and they would be heroes; if they could come back alive, they would have resolved the crisis in Leitania and would be heroes, defending the glory of the Linguang family.

But they never imagined that the remnants of the Witch King were so useless. They had been silent for so many years, and finally made some progress recently, but were suppressed again.

But in addition to guarding against the remnants of the Witch King, they also have to guard against the emperors and dukes. As time goes by, letters from home are not enough...

"Uncle, we know you're feeling miserable. Your elder brother and I won't say anything, but we have our own reasons."

At this time, seeing that the eldest brother had no answer, sister-in-law Yolanta took the initiative to step forward. As soon as Yolanta appeared, Mainna's expression suddenly relaxed a little, and her expression began to be embarrassed.

Finally, Yolanta noticed the change in Mayna's expression, and smiled lightly, bowed slightly, and expressed their gratitude to Mayna for taking care of their children and supporting the Linguang family during this period of time. She said in a sincere and indebted tone:

"Thank you for your hard work during this period. Now we need you to save us... After we return home, we will help you rebuild the Linguang family."

Assist Maenna to support the Linguang family. Yolanta's implication was obvious. Now, they all acknowledged that Maenna was the well-deserved "head of the family" of the Linguang family. This uncle who had been supporting the Linguang family when they were away, preventing the last bloodline of the Linguang family from flowing, and who had been enduring and supporting this family, was an elder of the Linguang family who was more dedicated than them.

Although family affection makes it unnecessary for them to express guilt by taking the position of "head of the family", this gesture is very important, and this recognition is also very important. It is the best response to all the efforts and sufferings and all the choices made by Mainna over the years.

"...It wasn't me who saved you, brother and sister-in-law." After receiving such an answer, Mainna raised her head again. After a long while, she controlled her emotions, turned around slowly, and revealed the figures of Chen Qi and Tallulah behind her.

Without the need for Mauna to introduce him, the couple Snitz and Yolanta also knew Chen Qi's name. The next moment, before Chen Qi could react, he saw Snitz taking the lead, putting his hand on his chest and kneeling on one knee.

"Thank you for your kindness, Director Chen Qi. We all know what you did in Casimir. You saved the Lin Guang family and helped us preserve the last glory of the Lin Guang family."

"We, the Linguang family, will never forget this kindness. If Director Chen Qi needs us, the Linguang family is willing to go through fire and water for you to repay this kindness!"

Chen Qi did have a great favor to the Linguang family. At that time, the turbulent Casimir suffered a setback in the war of invading Victoria, and it was very likely that the "hero" of the Linguang family would go to the battlefield to fight this unwinnable war.

Chen Qi had the Lin Guang family film in Casimir, so that the Supervisory Commission would not dare to touch the Lin Guang family, and also preserved the last spark of the Lin Guang family. As for the fact that Ma Enna took the Lin Guang family away from Casimir, the Supervisory Commission has now overturned the case. The new Casimir has taken a different path. If the Lin Guang family wants to go back, they can do so at any time.

But Mainna naturally did not plan so. The two who had just returned would certainly not return to Casimir like this... The inheritance of the Linguang family is now a heavy burden on their shoulders. Perhaps only they can pass on the spirit of chivalry.

"Don't thank me. If I don't do this, Mr. Mainna won't feel at ease in our crew, and I can't let Mr. Mainna work for us for nothing."

Chen Qi also waved his hand, looking at the two knights of the Linguang family in front of him, and remembered something more important, and immediately said:

"By the way, I'll contact Dr. Kal'tsit later and ask her to bring Margaret and Maria to see you so you can be reunited soon."

"...Thank you."

When Chen Qi mentioned reunion, his parents, who had been in a foreign land for so many years that they could not even remember their children's faces, could not help but show excitement when they recalled their two daughters. Chen Qi asked Tallulah to take them to Rhodes Island, so he would not watch the touching reunion scene after a long separation, for fear of embarrassment.

After everyone left, only Chen Qi was left, with Hei Jian and Bai Ke following him. The spy looked around and saw that there were no strangers around, so he walked up to Chen Qi and said,
