Chapter 726 The whole story and right and wrong


Chapter 726 The beginning and the end and right and wrong

Grandpa uncle?

After hearing the conversation on the other side of the pillar, Leon, who wanted to leave quietly, suddenly couldn't help but froze.

I remember that when we were backstage, the female cleaner once mentioned the identity of her uncle and grandpa, so the person on the other side of her "phone" was the current director of the Aquarius Branch?

“Haha, come back when you feel homesick~”

Not knowing that someone was "eavesdropping" on the side, looking at the unhappy grandniece on the other side of the celestial mirror, Director Balto of the Aquarius Branch smiled, and comforted him with a gentle expression:

"You were also She's not from 'over there'. Although she has the title of princess, she spends more time here than in the palace. She has basically no contact with government affairs. It's normal to not be able to handle those things well. "< br>
After hearing her uncle’s comfort, the frustrated female cleaner finally felt a little better.

However, it is a pity that when she thought of what she had seen before hiding, Lyon standing next to the smiling Queen Veronica and "having a pleasant conversation" with the envoys from various countries, the female cleaner couldn't help but be filled with envy. Di whispered:

“But he hasn’t had much contact with government affairs, but he can do a good job...”

he?

Director Aquarius on the other side of the small mirror was startled for a moment, and then asked curiously:

"Who is the 'him' you are talking about? The future Aquarius director?"< br>
“Yes, that’s him.”

After nodding slightly, the female cleaner sniffed and said with some frustration:

"Lyon is about the same age as me, and I haven't heard of any government affairs, but he did a very good job, much better than me.

Just now I was surrounded by a group of envoys and scolded... It didn't seem like he was scolding me, or just yelling at me very loudly, but Lyon was very nice. The envoys there seemed to like him very much, and they were all surrounding him, and even smiled at him very kindly. Everyone was smiling at him. I'm praising him.

Whew... I wish I could be like him."

"..."

After hearing this, the female cleaner hummed in envy. After that, Leon, who stayed curiously for a while because he heard her mentioning his name, suddenly couldn't help but scratch the back of his head in embarrassment.

Although the envoys here are indeed praising me and seem to be in harmony, the situation here is actually different from what you imagined.

Those envoys praised me repeatedly because they wanted something from Veronica. In the face of too huge interests, even if I farted in public, someone would probably analyze the phonology and rhythm and come to the conclusion A comment that is astonishing to the heavens.

Rather than saying that they are satisfied with my "performance", it is better to say that they regard me as a breakthrough, hoping to gain a good impression of me and strive to be more versatile when distributing the heritage of the Kingdom of Korok. Just take a piece of cake.

"Really? Then he is really powerful."

I didn't know the actual situation at the banquet, and got the wrong information from the female cleaner's one-sided statement. Director Aquarius on the other side of the mirror couldn't help but say with admiration:

"I have read the investigation record of the future Aquarius director, and I remember that four months ago, he was just an ordinary person living in poverty, with no contact with government affairs or anything like that.

I didn't expect that he was just an ordinary person living in poverty. After so many months of experience, he has not only gained strength comparable to that of a true god, he can even handle diplomatic situations with ease... Maybe there really is such a genius in this world who is born with knowledge!"

"..."

Don't praise, don't praise, things are not what you think. If you continue to praise me, I really won't be able to handle it.

……

"Uncle!"

When Leon heard that he was extremely ashamed, the female cleaner on the other side of the pillar couldn't help it, and complained with tears in her eyes:

"You are not now Should you comfort me and say that I am just younger, can I be as good as Leon in the future? You... wuwu..."

"Ah haha, sorry, sorry"

Look. Looking at the grandniece with a pouty mouth, Director Aquarius in the mirror couldn't help but smile and apologize, and then comforted him with a gentle voice:

"Meili, there aren't that many all-around geniuses in this world, and there is probably only one person as powerful as him. You don't actually need to compete with him in everything. Just be yourself and you're pretty good. "

"I...I'm just a little unwilling..."

The female cleaner shuddered when she heard this. She lay on the table holding a small mirror and muttered in a low voice with a hint of resentment. Said:

"I am about the same age as him. We were both level three cleaners before. Our talents don't seem to be too different. At least we are all selected from the fifth house. In the future... we should both become directors. But he seems to be better than me at everything..."

"Oh, it's not that much different after all!"

When he heard this, Director Aquarius in the mirror waved his hands and said:

"He is just a little more powerful than you, the tasks he does are a little more difficult, and he has killed a little more true gods. In terms of personality, A little more mature, a little more experienced in government affairs, a little more talented in secret arts, a little more successful in the future... Well... in short, it's just a little bit worse."

Looking at the circles in the mirror. The great-niece turned red. Director Aquarius hurriedly stopped taking inventory and began to console him:

"You may be a little behind, but not everything here is meaningful. After all, your identity is as a cleaner. Whether you are good at handling government affairs or suitable for dealing with people is a trivial matter to you.

The most important thing for you is whether you can handle it when danger strikes. , stand in front of all human beings, protect our ethnic group from wind and rain, and ensure the stable continuation of the entire human race.”

When he said this, the blue-haired old man in the mirror hesitated for a moment, then looked at his dazed grandniece, and said warmly:

"Meili, your 'battlefield' is not at the banquet. , let alone at the negotiation table or conference room. Just like your mother, the front of the human race is where you should be."

Are you the same as your mother...

After muttering twice in her heart, the female cleaner opened her mouth slightly, then pursed her lips again, and said in an inaudible voice:

"But mother also..."

"Meili, although your mother didn't come back, her departure also brought more people back alive. Her sacrifice was worth it."

Director Aquarius in the mirror sighed, his expression He said somewhat lonelyly:

“I know that you and Harvey have always been resentful of our decision. Harvey has not said a word to me for seven or eight years, but Meili , many things in this world always have to be done by someone.

In addition, you are not the only ones who have lost your family. The future Aquarius director, like you, also lost his family at a very young age. Lost your parents

But at least you still have me and your father to take care of you. He is not even qualified to grieve. He immediately has to work hard to take care of his younger brothers and sisters. The reason why he even joined the liquidation bureau is because. Her sister was critically ill and had to volunteer herself..."

"What?"

After hearing about Leon's past life from her uncle and grandfather, the female cleaner couldn't help but widen her eyes and said with a sigh on her face:

"Lion... Is he actually having such a hard time? He usually seems quite happy!"

"Real pain is never talked about"

The blue hair in the mirror. The old man sighed.

"In short, the reason why he is more mature than you is because he has to be mature. Although you also have some bad experiences, you still have the power to be naive and even willful. If you let him choose, compared to the mature and willful people you envy, Talent, I'm afraid he wants a complete family..."

When he said this, Director Aquarius seemed to think of something, and asked with a serious expression:

" Meili, you just need to know what I just told you. Don't tell others casually, let alone mention it in front of the future Aquarius director."

"I don't. Yes." The female cleaner shook her head when she heard this, and then said with a sympathetic face:

"Leon must have had a hard time getting rid of the pain, and he will definitely feel uncomfortable if I mention this in front of him."< br>


"It's more than just uncomfortable..."

Hearing this, Director Aquarius said helplessly:

"I don't let you mention this because of the cause of his parents' death... The investigation report stated that his parents were both mechanics and died in the war six years ago. "

The war six years ago?

After hearing Director Aquarius' words, the female cleaner couldn't help but be slightly startled, and then her eyes suddenly widened.

"Six years ago? That was not..."

"It was the last war that your father personally directed when he could still get out of bed."

"... …”

“So strictly speaking, the reason why he lost his parents has a lot to do with what your father did.”

Looking at the female cleaner who suddenly became silent and her expression became extremely complicated, Director Aquarius in the mirror sighed again and said in a warm voice:

"Meili, you don't need to have any psychological burden. Your father is not a bad person, especially for the entire Northern Kingdom. He may be the best king in the past three hundred years.

But, like your brother Harvey, he is only good for the right people. The citizens of the Northern Kingdom are meaningful. In the eyes of the citizens of other countries, your father is the most ambitious and ruthless king in the Northern Kingdom.”

The female cleaner couldn’t help but clenched her fists when she heard this. He clenched his palms, then bit his lip and asked:

"Then my father... is he right or wrong?"

"It's hard to say."

The blue-haired old man in the mirror shook his head, and then asked:

"Meili, what do you think is right? What is wrong?"

"I..."

After thinking for a while, the female cleaner said with a slightly depressed expression:

"The war six years ago was an invasion of others, and many people died on both sides, including Leon's parents, so... so my father..."

"You think your father is wrong? "

"Well..."

"Then you know? In the war six years ago, although he was the active invader, before that, the entire Northern Kingdom I have always been subjected to disguised blackmail.”

After recalling the original situation, Director Aquarius said:

"Before your father fought that battle, the other side used road passes and ice-free ports to get coal, grain and vegetables from the North every few years. These are all vital things to the Northern Kingdom.

I remember the most outrageous year. Even the price of coal in Rehe City increased nearly twenty times. Tribes large and small froze to death and starved to death. Do you still think that battle should not be fought? "

"I..."

"In the words of your father, the security of any country cannot be based on the insecurity of another country. As for the Northern Kingdom. King, faced with such a good opportunity, he must solve this serious problem for his country no matter what.”

After paraphrasing the words of the female cleaner’s father, the blue-haired old man in the mirror continued:< br>


"At that time, your father became ill from overwork and was so sick that he could hardly eat anything. As an heir of the gluttony bloodline, you should be able to understand what this means to you.

And your father's Although Ci did not die on the battlefield, he took the initiative to fight in person when he needed rest the most, which was almost as if he was prepared to die on the border.

Even when he stayed in bed later, it was the same as six years ago. The war is inseparable. In order to prevent the Northern Kingdom from being choked, he almost gave up his life."

After hearing the situation six years ago, the female cleaner looked panicked. I couldn't help but murmured:

"Then... wasn't it my father who was wrong? He was also forced to have no choice but the person who was really wrong was the one who stuck our necks?"

"I've said it before, it's really hard to say who was right and who was wrong about the war six years ago."

Director Aquarius shook his head and said:

"Your father's goal was only to pass the pass and not to do it. However, the war situation continued to escalate, and the tribes that gained the benefits also increased their investment, and finally almost destroyed the opponent's two counties.

And have you ever thought about why the opponent risked a war? The risks of repeatedly restricting our northern kingdom’s supplies?”

“Is it because of...interests?”

"Profits are only one aspect. The reason why the other party blocked the pass in the first place was more to sanction the atrocities committed by some border tribes."

The blue-haired old man in the mirror recalled:

"Remember Before the other side restricted the flow of goods through the pass and prevented normal shipping in winter, several large tribes on the border were dissatisfied with the prices of materials at that time and colluded with the privateers of the Kingdom of Saio several times to plunder on both land and sea. br>
Strictly speaking, the Northern Kingdom is just a tribal alliance, with a much looser structure than the other side. The king has less control over the large tribes. The other side has warned several times to no avail, so naturally it can only block the passes and ports, especially It is the winter that is prone to troubles, and the flow of various materials is strictly restricted.

However, as the time and frequency of blockades increase, a stable interest chain gradually forms. Driven by huge interests, this precautionary nature. The blockade has turned into conscious extraction and extortion, laying the hidden danger of war.”

"So... it was because of us in the first place?"

After listening to her uncle and grandfather's memories, the female cleaner, whose mind was a little overloaded, couldn't help but said with blank eyes:

"That's our fault. But...but if we don’t fight that war, wouldn’t we still freeze to death and starve to death?”

“Yes, that’s why I said, about the war six years ago? , it’s hard to say who is right and who is wrong.

Your father brazenly launched the war. He was indeed sorry for the victims of the war and for people like Lyon’s parents, but he was worthy of his own people, even if it was a hundred years later. Years, people in the Northern Kingdom will also miss him.”

After giving a summary that stood on both sides, Director Aquarius couldn't help but smile as he looked at his great-niece who looked a little confused in the mirror, but seemed to understand something. Then he asked in a warm voice:

"Topic It's a bit far, haha, my uncle is getting older and he always likes to talk about things from the past... Anyway, please remember not to mention his parents and the six years in front of the future Aquarius director. What happened in the previous war?

Although the future Aquarius director has amazing talents, he never does things lightly and is ruthless. If he has a grudge, he will come here to go on a mission. At that time, our Rehe City might be demolished easily.”

Huh?

When she heard this, the female cleaner couldn't help being startled and said in a panic:

"Leon... would he do that?"

"Haha, of course not."

Looking at the grandniece who was no longer sad in the mirror, she was swimming in the underground hot river. Director Aquarius couldn't help but grin.

"Don't worry, the future Aquarius director's mood is actually quite stable. As long as you don't mention these things in front of him, he is generally unlikely to deliberately retaliate...

Hmm ...Meili, look to the left. Is there someone behind the pillar next to you? Why did I see a corner of my clothes fluttering?"
