Chapter 686: Discussion on the Balcony (1)

It takes time for Tanan to identify the documents he brought back, because in a hurry, even Tren and Temple could not immediately determine the authenticity of the documents, so they had to be brought back to Fort New Mig for study.

It also takes time for the elf clan to join the Entagri Empire, although Jian Chen is happy to have such a race that has mastered some of the Miracle Age technology to join the empire, he still handled this matter cautiously, and was not carried away by this good news, he asked Tanan to inform the elf clan to send an envoy to discuss this matter with him.

However, after all this that happened, Chen Jian's trust in Tanan has increased again, he is not a heartless person, from beginning to end, Tanan has been helping the Entagri Empire, so that Chen Jian has benefited a lot from it, even Moriel, who is the most jealous of Tanan and has a deep prejudice, has to admit at this time that so far, Tanan does not have any ill will towards Chen Jian and the Entagri Empire.

But even so, Morriel is still very wary of Tanan, for her, Tanan's existence is really a variable, this man is too capable, and he is not old or dead.

"No one knows what kind of changes he will make in the future, and what kind of impact he will have on the empire," Morriel said to Jian Chen in private, "He has no ill will towards us now, and even for the rest of our lives, it may be, but who can guarantee that his kindness will continue?" After all, he is an immortal existence, and I don't want the empire we have worked so hard to build will be destroyed because of his whim."

From the perspective of a ruler, Morriel thinks so, there is indeed nothing wrong with maintaining the rule of the regime, we must try to eliminate some factors that may affect the stability of its rule, and the existence of Tanan is obviously a very unstable factor, and the facts of the past have also proved that immortal heroes have always been measured by their personal standards whether they interfere in what happens in the world, if one day the Entagri Empire is no longer recognized by it, Tanan may indeed take actions that are unfavorable to the Entagri Empire, Or take action that is detrimental to the royal family of the Entagri Empire, and bring everything back within the limits of what he approves.

What's even more terrifying is that he has considerable ability to guarantee the success of these actions of his.

Therefore, even putting aside personal grievances, Moryl has reason to be deeply wary of Tanan, and her love for Jian Chen, as the empress of the Entagri Empire, makes her not allow anyone to destroy everything that Jian Chen has worked so hard to create, even if this destruction happened after she and Jian Chen are no longer in this world.

However, for Moryl's ideas, Chen Jian didn't approve of it.

"There is no immortal empire in the world, and it is impossible to maintain its dominance forever. He comforted the worried Moryl, "Even our Entagri Empire can't exist forever, and we can't worry about the things behind us, and we don't need to worry about the future, so we will leave it to the people at that time to deal with, what we have to do and what we should do is to grasp the present and create good conditions for the next generation as much as possible. ”

But even though he said that, Chen Jian did not ignore Tanan's affairs, and now, he has a strong belief in everything Tanan said, and he also understands Tanan's compassionate mind, which makes him have a good impression of Tanan, and at the same time, through Moriel's worries about Tanan's immortal body, it also makes Chen Jian think of a crucial question.

So when he returned to Fort New Mig, he left the matter to everyone to deal with, but he himself invited Tanan to his study, and he decided to have a good talk with the immortal hero.

After this toss, it was already late in the evening, and because of the orientation, Chen Jian's study was a golden yellow—the sunset, which was about to disappear on the horizon, shone into the study through the huge floor-to-ceiling window leading to the balcony in the study.

Several angel secretaries were busy in the study, and when they saw His Majesty the Emperor coming back, they hurriedly got up and saluted, Chen Jian waved them to continue their work, and then led Tanan to the huge balcony, with only Moriel and Esreina following behind them.

The view on the balcony is very good, you can take most of the new Mig Fort into the eyes, the sea view in the distance is unobstructed, everyone looks at the railing, you can watch the sunset is slowly falling into the sea little by little, the sea is a golden light, the sunset on the horizon is also brilliant and colorful, the beautiful scenery of this dusk not only makes Chen Jian feel good, even the melancholy of Tanan's eyebrows is also less because of this.

"Mr. Tanan, you have spent more than a thousand years in this world, your experience, your experience, of course, is not comparable to me, an ordinary person, so there is something I want to ask you for advice" After a few cold words, Chen Jian quickly turned the topic to business, he didn't want to occupy too much of Tanan's personal time, Chen Jian knew that the family of the immortal hero should be waiting to have dinner with him at this time, and this kind of happy time together, with the personality shown by Tanan, is obviously not too much, Now that the Doomsday Blade and the Ice Sword have happened again, Chen Jian guessed that as soon as he agreed to Tanan's request to borrow the First Fleet, this immortal hero would probably be separated from his family again immediately, which made Chen Jian feel a little emotional.

There is no hope for him to reunite with his family, but now he cherishes his family affection and lives with himself.

Tanan saw that it was impossible for him to borrow the Entagredi ** team to have a result immediately, and he was naturally like an arrow, as soon as Jian Chen mentioned the matter, he immediately picked up: "Your Majesty is eloquent and wise, I dare not ask for advice, but if Your Majesty has any doubts, as long as you can, Tanan is naturally willing to serve."

Chen Jian said with a smile: "With Mr. Tanan's words, then I will be relieved"

Immediately, Jian Chen looked at the immortal hero with blazing eyes: "I don't know what Mr. Tanan thinks an empire should do in order to maintain its rule for a long time, keep it strong, and not decline prematurely?" ”

This question is very sensitive, and Tanan's identity is special, and Tanan, who couldn't figure out Jian Chen's true intentions, was stunned for a while.

Not only Tanan, but also Moryl and Esrena, who were following the two of them, were also a little stunned, they didn't understand why Jian Chen suddenly asked Tanan such a question.

After being silent for a while, Tanan replied very cautiously: "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude, but this question, from my standpoint, is really inconvenient to answer."

Chen Jian smiled, but he didn't care: "Mr. Tanan refuses to say, I naturally won't be strong, it's better to do this, let me change the question, the Erathia Empire is known as the strongest country in the continent, and it has been established for more than a thousand years, and its position on the Erathia continent has been unshakeable for a long time, even if the river is declining now, no one dares to underestimate its strength, I don't know what Mr. Tanan thinks, what is the reason for this?" ”

Tanan was stunned again, he really didn't think about this question raised by Chen Jian, and after pondering for a while, he spoke: "I never thought about this question raised by Your Majesty, but the fact that the Erathia Empire is so strong may have something to do with the endless talents in the royal family of this empire, right?" Beginning with the founding emperor of the Erathia Empire, Rien, the imperial family of this empire will have a Ming monarch every once in a while, such as Niven back then, as well as Catherine who successfully restored the country in the last war, and the former emperor who contributed to the Holy Alliance, Catherine's father Nikolai, are all strategic, with these Ming monarchs, plus the country has been established for a long time, it has won the hearts of the people, so the Erathia Empire can flourish for a long time"

Jian Chen shook his head and said, "I don't think so, as far as Ming Jun is concerned, Catherine can be regarded as deserved, but even she can't save the fate of the decline of the Erathia Empire, so I think that an enlightened ruler is certainly helpful in maintaining the rule of an empire, but it is not the most important factor."

Tanan thought for a while, and then said: "Your Majesty does have some truth in saying this, so the Erathia Empire can remain strong for so long, maybe it has something to do with its system, right?" After all, from the beginning of the country, the Erathia Empire has been committed to weakening the power of the lords, and it has to be said that this has been of great help to the Erathian royal family to consolidate its rule."

"Yes, the system of the Erathia Empire is the real reason why it has been strong for more than a thousand years" Chen Jian agreed with Tanan's new statement, "Centralize power, make more effective use of various national resources, and then let the state form a professional, well-trained and powerful regular army, instead of other lord countries, the army is scattered in the hands of the lord, and it is only assembled in wartime, and it is difficult to unify the orders, which effectively improves the combat effectiveness of the Erathia Emperor's ** team, The human army, which is not known for its individual combat strength, also has the strength to compete with the armies composed of other strong races, and even played the title of the first strong army in the continent, so even if the Erathia Empire has been rejecting foreign races for many years and making enemies on all sides, it is still standing, but on the other hand, pure lordship countries such as the Negan Lord and the Krurod Barbarian Kingdom are empty, but there are no strong races like the Minotaur and the Ogre whose personal strength far exceeds that of humans, but they can only be trapped in a corner of the continent and have no big achievements. Internal friction continues, and when facing the Erathia Emperor ** team on the battlefield, it is also defeated repeatedly, and there are few victories. ”

"But if the system of an empire remains unchanged and cannot be changed accordingly with the changes of the times, so that it can adapt to the situation at that time, then no matter how advanced and effective the system is, it will one day become a backward system, and even become a huge obstacle to the further development of the empire, just like the current situation of the Erathian Empire, the old system can no longer adapt to the constantly changing situation, and this system is only centered on the human race, ignoring and excluding other races, It made the Erathian Empire completely isolated on the continent after more than a thousand years. ”

Speaking of this, Jian Chen changed his words: "I don't know what kind of situation the current system of the Ntagri Empire is in Mr. Tanan's opinion?" Is there anything that needs to be improved? ”
