Chapter 732: Only interests come first
Sander looked up in amazement, it was his granddaughter Elsa who spoke, seeing Elsa's angry face, but there was a hint of surprise hidden in her eyes, Sander couldn't help but feel a little unhappy.
Lan Yi turned her head to look at Elsa who was dancing and rushing over, and said lightly: "It turned out to be Miss Elsa, unfortunately, my plan may be difficult to achieve." ”
"Ha Lu Ha this is the funniest joke I've ever heard, this time you're dead, no one can save you!"
"For what?"
"For what?!Because of your betrayal! You have caused great losses to your family, and you have made all your people suffer a great price for your mistakes! Don't you deserve to die?"
Lan Yi looked at Elsa, who gritted her teeth with a smile, but her eyes were full of excitement, and suddenly her heart moved: "Speaking of this, I have to thank you for arranging for me to go undercover to Tamsting!
"Nonsense! I just asked people to arrange for you to go to the Slanka outpost to find out the news, and I didn't let you betray the family, I understand, it turns out that you have a grudge!"
Lan Yi looked at the indignant Elsa, and suddenly raised her head and laughed: "Ha Lu Ha I understand, I understand, no wonder I don't feel guilty for doing so many bad things, because I am taking revenge, revenge on you!"
"Damn"
"Shut up, Elsa, aren't you ashamed enough?"
Elsa looked at her grandfather in surprise, she felt incomprehensible that her grandfather was inexplicably standing on Lan Yi's side, Elsa looked at Lan Yi in astonishment. I saw that she was wearing a magic ring around her neck. She was suddenly confused. Could it be that grandpa has some plan? Yes, there must be some plan, Lan Yi must be unable to escape death this time!
Damn Lan Yi, why is she the best young powerhouse in the clan! Why is all the scenery focused on her? Obviously, she is the pride of the sky, there must be something wrong, as long as Lan Yi is killed, all mistakes will be corrected, right. It must be so!
Elsa's face changed rapidly, from confusion to depression, and then she was full of confidence again, proudly despised Lan Yi, the smile on Lan Yi's face still did not dissipate, she seemed to be really happy, but what was she happy about?
Sander shook his head secretly and said, "Elsa, you go and invite the elders to come over, and say that there is something important to discuss." ”
"Oh, I'll go. ”
Elsa finished. glared at Lan Yi fiercely, turned around and left a little reluctantly.
A kind smile returned to Tander's face. Pointing to the chair on one side: "Sit down, Lan Yi, I think you may be able to introduce me to the situation of the Xuanmen while they haven't arrived yet." ”
Lan Yi didn't sit, but still stood in the middle of the room, facing Sander, with a smile on his face, and said calmly: "There is no problem with this, as long as it helps your judgment, I will be happy to serve you." ”
In the secret room of the Elders' Council of the Servis family, the elders were sitting neatly on both sides of the long table, and the patriarch Sander sat on the main seat in the center.
"That's the way it is, Lan Yi's appearance as the messenger of Lin Shu, the lord of Xuanmen, itself shows the true thoughts of Xuanmen, Lan Yi brings us the details of Xuanmen, and it also helps everyone evaluate the pros and cons of this matter, so let's talk about it, how should we respond to Xuanmen's suggestion?"
All the elders were silent, this matter was a bit too important, and not long ago, not long ago, no, even now, Xuanmen is still the enemy of the Servis family, and many of the elites of the Servis family are folded in the hands of the Xuanmen, and now that the Xuanmen suddenly threw this olive branch, it is difficult for everyone to believe it immediately.
"Patriarch, I have a question. ”
"What's the problem?"
"How can you be sure that the Lord of the Xuanmen is not lying to us, when the Tan Stin family is captured, we will lose the last piece of buffer land, and we will directly border the Great Federation, when the time comes, who dares to guarantee that the war will not directly burn on our heads?"
Sander thought for a while and said: "Any guarantee is meaningless, the agreement can be torn up, the promise can be violated, and the only thing that can be guaranteed is driven by the situation and interests, so what we need to judge is not the sincerity of the Lord of Xuanmen, but whether there is such a general trend now." ”
"The general trend?"
In fact, from the information of the Trestin family, as well as our own intelligence sources, we are told that the population of the Great Federation seriously limits their ability to expand, and the Great Federation itself is not a race that likes to expand by force, and the reason why they fought back against us was because the Tauntin family took the initiative to start a war. ”
Some of the elders coughed, it was not the Tan Stin family that liked to expand and start wars, but the entire Wingman Empire, as if they couldn't live without expanding the Wingman Empire, in the hearts of the Wingmen, they always longed for more and more territories, and the never-ending greed was like a spell around the Wingmen.
Perhaps, as Lan Yi said, this is because the curse from the creator that the Wingman suffered after betraying his master and friend has penetrated into the soul of the Wingman, and it is difficult to wash it off.
"But their population is going to grow. ”
"That's right," Sander nodded, "their population will grow, but they now have five administrative stars in their hands, if you add Tamsteen stars, there will be six, and their population can't even fill their own three home stars, and if they want to start expanding again, they can't do it in two or three hundred years." ”
"What does the patriarch mean in exchange for two or three hundred years of peace?
"Entrepot trade!
"The entrepot trade is understood, but the technique is spreading, and the technique of the Great Federation is not the same as the technique of controlling the teleportation array, is there any other technique that is ahead of us?"
"Lonely and unheard, don't even know how to do this as an elder? Don't you know that the Great Federation of Lu Dao is now comprehensively promoting the meridian cultivation technique? This is a completely different cultivation system, the news I got is that people who cultivate the meridians are not restricted by the magic energy system, that is, they can use the whole system of magic, patriarch, is this news true?"
Sang De nodded solemnly: "It's true, Lan Yi has already decided, and besides, meridian cultivation is actually just the introduction to the Xuanmen system, everyone understands." ”
The weight of Sander's words was quite heavy, and the scales in everyone's hearts began to tilt.
"But how do we explain it to the Taxim family?
"Do you need an explanation? We need the army to guard the territory to prevent the military from forcibly intervening, as for the Tammysteen family, when will our Servis family be responsible for the Tamnestin family?
"Hehe's right! The Tamsteen family started a war with the Great Federation without authorization, we can't take responsibility for them, let alone let the Servis family bury the Tamsteen family, we can't be sinners of the clan!"
"Well said, I support the patriarch's decision!"
Sander looked at the impassioned elders with some amusement, his own decision, when did he have already decided?
Lan Yi sat quietly on the railing on the edge of the floating island, and in the distance, there were several guards watching her from afar, these guards did not know her identity, but from the magic ring around her neck, and the patriarch's personal order that no one should approach, she could know that the identity of this beautiful woman was definitely not simple.
Just now, Miss Elsa, the granddaughter of the patriarch, came to make trouble for a while, but she didn't succeed, these guards are family guards loyal to the patriarch, except for the patriarch's orders, they will not bow to anyone, but these strong-willed people all guess who is the beautiful woman sitting on the railing, smiling and looking at the cityscape.
"Lan Yi. ”
Lan Yi slowly turned his head, with a faint smile on his face, glanced at Sander and then turned his head to continue looking at the huge city under his feet.
"Patriarch, you're here, so the clan has already made a decision?"
Sander didn't answer, but followed Lan Yi's gaze into the distance: "What a beautiful view!"
"Well, very familiar view. ”
"If you like, I can arrange you a floating island, maybe you like your original one. ”
Lan Yi shook her head: "No need, I will go back to my master, I found that I am still suitable to stay there." ”
"Don't you like freedom?"
"Freedom?" is a word that didn't exist in the first place, you must know it better than I do. ”
Sander smiled bitterly, freedom, this thing really never exists, there is always the burden of responsibility behind freedom, and there is always a quagmire of compromise under his feet.
Lan Yi smiled and raised her head, the breeze blew her long hair, and her body exuded an enviable sense of relaxation, Sander said, that is called happiness. When a person finds his way to go, he smiles with determination and confidence.
Sander admitted that he was jealous, but no matter how jealous he was, no matter how jealous he was, Lan Yi couldn't move, and no one knew whether the Lord of the Xuanmen would kill Lan Yi for Lan Yi, no, definitely, otherwise, he would not cancel the master-servant contract in order to let Lan Yi return to the family.
Sander took a deep breath, looked away from his gaze, looked at the spectacular city, and said, "I think we need an emissary to make the Lord of the Xuanmen understand the sincerity of our Servis family. The Servis family has always cherished honor and peace-loving family, I hope you can make Master Lin understand this, I think, our Servis family can be a good link of peace between the Great Federation and the Empire, and make the greatest efforts for the peace and prosperity of the two countries. ”
Lan Yi jumped down from the railing, saluted elegantly, straightened up and said with a smile: "I am willing to serve you, your kindness will be completely conveyed to the master, I believe that the Servis family will be under your leadership, create a new glory, in this way, I will have a clear conscience."
