The Face Changing Warrior

Chapter 40: [Born to rebel! 】

"For hundreds of years in the empire, the Tulip family has been known as the'House of the Imperial Army God', and every heir to our family is the commander-in-chief of the battlefield! To this day, it is said that the Tulip family’s flame tulip banner, He is the **** in the eyes of the imperial army! The flame tulip banner is what the army wants! What scenery is this? What glory?"

"But behind this kind of scenery, how many people hate you know? The emperor's sovereignty cannot be challenged by anyone! As the emperor of the empire, His Majesty, can he tolerate military power? He can tolerate more people in the army? Is his imperial power more authoritative? An invincible commander is naturally the backbone of the empire, but a **** of the army will inevitably disturb your majesty. Just imagine, if one day happens...then the army will follow the tulip banner or follow Your Majesty the Emperor is leaving?"

"Speaking of the lofty status, the Tulip family was already incomparable. My father used to be the marshal of the imperial army and the duke. The entire Xilin province is a family fief. No family in the empire can match this kind of scenery. .But it is this kind of scenery that makes your majesty uneasy. The more outstanding the merits of the Tulip family, the more embarrassing your majesty. With the current status of the family, no matter how meritorious it is, what reward can your majesty give us? The family already owns a province of the empire! Is it a title? The family already has the title of a duke... wealth? The annual income of the Xilin province of the fiefdom is already a huge wealth... so..."

Nicole's tone gradually dimmed. Roddy was frightened.

He is just an unknown young man. Although he also knows some empire's history on weekdays, where has he ever heard of this kind of upper-class power struggle?

Nicole sighed and continued:

"So, after my father died, Your Majesty felt that this was an opportunity, but he took back the military power that had been held by the Tulip family for many years. It just so happened that my brother was not an adult and could not inherit the title. How beautiful the Lionheart family looks now, Minister of Military Affairs His Majesty was extremely favored by the emperor, even his nephew Miró was appointed to a military authority as soon as he was an adult. But did you know? Before my father died, the Lionheart family only depended on our tulip face for everything. Roles. Their glory has all risen suddenly in the past few years. It was cultivated by the Emperor to restrict us."

"Therefore, in the empire, the person who is least willing to see the re-emergence of the Tulip Family is His Majesty! He absolutely does not want to see a banner supported by the army! In the heart of any emperor, the only supreme in the empire It can only be imperial power!"

These words made Roddy's mouth dry and confused. After thinking about it for a long time, he slowly said, "But...it's not the Tulip family's fault either. Is it a great feat, is it wrong?"

Nicole's voice was calm: "This is not our fault, nor is it the emperor's fault. The fault lies in the fact that the glory of our tulip family is too dazzling, covering the emperor's light!"

Roddy lowered his head for a moment and sighed: "Yes, it's not the family's fault. It's not the Emperor's fault either. But whose fault is it?"

Nicole shook her head, with a weak expression on her face: "I don't know, I can't figure it out. I often can't sleep at night, after thinking about it, I always can't figure out this problem. I know the family must be revitalized, but how to revitalize it. , But I can’t think of anything...I really don’t know what to do."

Nicole's tone was extremely weak. She was originally a girl, and she was burdened with the burden of the family. But how could she figure out these complicated problems? Even if it makes sense, how can she solve it?

Roddy's heart was tumbling, feeling all kinds of thoughts flashing, but suddenly a thought that made his own scared flashed.

"The glory of the Tulip family is based on the empire! If even the emperor of the empire becomes the enemy of the family, then the Tulip family...can only perish."

Roddy was clearly excited and couldn't help but whispered the words that had been silently in his heart.

Unexpectedly, there were no waves on Nicole's face, only the corners of her eyes moved slightly. A strange look appeared in her pair of beautiful eyes, and she suddenly said in a very strange tone: "Do you know? Some people have said this before."

"Who?"

"Mr. Dandong! Two hundred years ago, before he died."

"What?" Roddy jumped up suddenly, his face full of horror.

To be honest, he was already scared by the **** old Dandong guy-it seems that everything that involves that old guy is something shocking the world!

Roddy suddenly remembered the old Mark-his mission: to protect the descendants of the Tulip family, but he would not help the Tulip family's cause.

Did Dandong foresee the decline of the Tulip family? So I left this mission to my disciples? That's why he allowed his descendants to ensure the safety of Tulip descendants, but he was indifferent to the revitalization of the Tulip family.

No wonder the old Mark didn't care about the real Dorset leaving that day. What did he say?

"I am protecting their people, not the glory of the **** family. What does the glory of the Tulip family have to do with me? I see the young lady frowning and unhappy every day... Humph, this family, it's gone. Good morning!"

Good morning?

Such a weird thought suddenly appeared in Roddy's mind: I am afraid that the old Mark is tired of being a bodyguard for hundreds of years, right? I'm afraid that he would like this family to die soon. After he has kept the descendants of the Tulip family safe, he will be free...

Seeing Roddy's face changed slightly, Nicole frowned and said, "What are you thinking?"

Roddy's mind was tumbling, and suddenly he blurted out a sentence: "Didn't you think about it... I've read a sentence these few days... To win or lose! Does the family never think about..."

"Shut up!" Nicole yelled in a hurry with a look of horror on her face. Then he lowered his voice and said, "Idiot! Is this kind of talking nonsense?"

"Why can't you talk nonsense? The emperor...huh, is he really the emperor for the rest of his life? Hundreds of years ago, when the empire did not exist, let alone that there was no tulip family, it was the emperor... did he exist?"

Nicole was stunned for a moment, feeling that Roddy was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

Roddy said proudly: "I am not from the Tulip family! I am just a commoner! But I never think there is anything sacred and inviolable about His Majesty the Emperor! What is he worthy of my respect? In the Empire, an ordinary The common people cannot raise a horse at home! More than 80% of a commoner’s annual hard-earned income must be given to those nobles! Common people cannot enter the academy, only nobles can ride in a carriage! People without skills can live the richest and most luxurious Life, capable people, can’t even eat food every day! A brave fifth-level warrior wants to be a bodyguard for a fat-headed noble! If the rules of this world are set by the emperor, then why should I? Respect him? I'm just a commoner. Since His Majesty doesn't love us, then why should we love him?!"

"Ah!" Nicole exclaimed, then she covered her mouth and looked at the emotional Roddy in front of him in surprise. He only felt that the honest and hardworking Roddy had been changed to another person at this moment.

"Do you think what I said is wrong?" Roddy suddenly put away his excited expression, frowned slightly, and then let out a long sigh: "You know? I couldn't think of these ideas... These ideas are all from me. What you see in your brother's notes...I have been here for so many days, read every day, think about it every day, and now I think that many of your brother's ideas are right."

"You...how can you say this? You..." Nicole pointed at Roddy, her fingers trembling, as if she didn't know how to say it anymore.

This time, Roddy didn't have any panic on his face. He looked calm, then bent down and gave a deep bow, and said lightly: "Nicole, I'm just a small person, a civilian. I just think about these things. That's it. Huh, what can a little person do?!"

His tone seemed self-deprecating, but also sarcastic. Nicole only felt that Roddy looked at this moment, and there was a look on his face that he would never see before...
