Chapter 187 Indecisive
"I have to say, little Purfict, you handled things very beautifully this time." Princess Anne looked at Purfict, who was still calm and peaceful, and couldn't help but praise her.
Although Princess Anne rushed over as soon as she learned what happened, when she arrived at the Democratic Parliament Square, the trustees arranged by those behind the scenes had already been hung on the street lamps. , and East Wood had also been sent away by the patrol, and even the people in the square had almost dispersed.
She could only find Perfectcott drinking tea in a lounge of the elected parliament building to praise her.
Perfect didn't care about this, he just put down the black tea cup in his hand and said: "This is just some unscrupulous and dirty tricks, although I stopped the situation in time and did not let it go." It's getting worse, but it has to be said that once this happens, it will have a very bad impact.
Although I relied on the trial of those who spread rumors to prevent public opinion from turning to the most unfavorable situation, there are still some people who believe the rumors they spread, and even think that I execute those who spread rumors to suppress those who tell the truth. .
So the follow-up processing must be fast. The empire must find out those behind the scenes and deal with them to eliminate all possible bad effects. ”
“Isn’t this too worrying? The evidence collected was not sufficient. "Princess Anne still wants to handle this matter more safely.
These days, she has conducted investigations through the power she has, and has indeed collected some relevant evidence, but she wants to use this to kill those who There are still some difficulties for the mastermind behind the scenes, and she hopes to bring those people to justice with more certainty.
However, Perfectcott shook his head and said: "Urgent measures should be used in extraordinary times. , We have only two years left, Aunt Anne, do you think the empire has time to waste now? ”
When Purficott asked this question, Princess Anne was speechless.
Seemingly aware of Princess Anne's attitude, Purficott advised her: "Auntie Anne, I hope you can adjust your mentality. We are now fighting a war where gunpowder can't be seen. , everything must be dealt with according to the state of war. If you continue to be indecisive, I can only wonder if the Queen has neglected the education of your character in your training.
As a king, how can you be at the critical moment? Are you always indecisive and hesitant?”
At this point, Purficott felt that she was speaking too harshly. She hesitated and then added: “If you really can’t make up your mind or If you don’t want to do it, let me do it.”
Although at first it was hoped that Princess Anne would handle this matter, and then establish her own prestige and reputation, paving the way for her future succession to the throne. .
But if Princess Anne really couldn't support her, Purficott wouldn't mind doing it all by himself.
Just like this...Perfect sighed inwardly, isn't this forcing her to become a powerful minister? She doesn't want to be ranked alongside Cao Cao, Yuan Shikai and the like!
There are two completely different effects when Princess Anne does something and when she does it.
However, now that the matter has come to this, Purficott will not be as hesitant as Princess Anne.
"No, little Purphycott, please don't interfere in this matter. Give me some time. I will go back and discuss it with my mother." Princess Anne stopped Purphycott, and then seemed to be afraid of her. He explained with disappointment: "The main reason is that there are too many nobles involved behind this. If they are all dealt with at once, the situation in the empire will be unstable. The reason why I want to collect sufficient evidence is because of this One point. If their crimes can be proven with sufficient evidence and all of them are brought to justice, the impact on the current situation of the empire will be minimized and social riots can be avoided..."
"If there is no doomsday crisis, Aunt Anne is right to do this." Purficott listened to Princess Anne's explanation, but she shook her head: "Under normal circumstances, you would do this It is beyond reproach. This is the safest and most upright approach.
But I have already said that what we are facing now is a war without gunpowder, and everything must be decisive, because we no longer have it. Time is wasted.
If you can't clear up all the mess in the shortest possible time, then these masterminds will inevitably incite greater turmoil in society!
< br>Sometimes we can't do everything perfectly. In many cases, we can only choose the lesser of two evils, and choose the less bad outcome from the two."
Purficott's words once again silenced Princess Anne. She didn't say anything in the end, but said she needed to discuss it with the Queen.
"Okay, but as soon as possible, we really don't have time to take it slow." Purficott did not continue to force Princess Anne, but just shook his head and left the elected parliament building.
Out of the building, her Steam Knights surrounded her, and Ezio, who had been waiting for a long time, appeared next to her and asked her again: "You really don't need my help. Do you want to get rid of all those people? The assassins of the Brotherhood are very experienced in this kind of thing, and they can pretend that their deaths are accidental."
"If they die accidentally, their property will not be taken away. Here we are." Purficott still shook his head and rejected Ezio's proposal: "Developing the North and dealing with the doomsday crisis will require a huge amount of money and resources. These nobles are the money bags I have prepared for the Northern Development Plan. , you kill them directly, and all the money will be taken away by their heirs."
Hearing what Perficott said, Ezio couldn't help but sigh, and agreed with Perficott. Bi, I am still too kind.
"Well, we don't need to pay too much attention to this matter for the time being. Although Aunt Anne hasn't made up her mind yet, the Queen will tell her what to do at this time." Purficott is still very confident in the Queen. A queen for decades, her skills and character are far beyond those of Princess Anne.
So she quickly changed the topic to another thing.
Perficott asked Ezio: "Does the Assassin Brotherhood have intelligence networks in other countries in the old world?"
"There are some, but not as comprehensive as Victoria. , you can get some information, but it is more difficult to understand some specific information in detail." Ezio didn't know why, but he still answered Purficott's question.
Perfect nodded, and then said: "Ask the people from the Brotherhood to help find out whether other countries have discovered the doomsday crisis. I always feel that this time the three countries declared war on the empire, there is something behind this There are deeper reasons..."
Just as Purficott and Ezio were talking, a man suddenly rushed out from the roadside. He bypassed the Steam Knight's blockage at a weird angle and threw a ball that seemed to be lit at Purficott. unknown object.
