This child is indeed extraordinary, fortunately, I erased his mory early on, otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to easily keep him by my side.
"Why do you suddenly say these things to your father? What do you an?" After all, the Councilman has been in the political arena for several decades, still harboring doubts and vigilance in his heart, unsure of what this child ans by suddenly exposing his purpose like this.
"Father, you need not worry. I just want to show you that I am on the sa side as you. Not only do I understand your political ideas, but I also support them!"
"Support ? I thought you were going to accuse , as a nation’s Councilman, of using war to seek personal profit!" The Councilman’s voice was sowhat sarcastic.
Nowadays, young people are very passionate, have many ideas, seeing him so righteous and solemn on the surface, openly conducting national research, launching a war with great dignified righteousness to protect the nation’s dignity and embassy staff’s lives, yet behind the scenes, it was a conspiracy he orchestrated, sacrificing the people’s lives to provoke war. Generally, when young people find out, they would all be very angry, very disdainful of his actions, accusing and attacking, unable to agree.
But this son actually claid to understand his actions and even support him, which was truly shocking and unbelievable.
This son, compared to the current young generation, has a worldview that’s simply in a different universe, seemingly lacking any sense of justice in his bones, whose ideas are completely contrary to those of ordinary kind-hearted people. To say this child has a completely unconventional mindset, he is indeed a bona fide antagonist.
So young, yet with a way of thinking no different from those old foxes who have been in the political arena for decades, cunning and sharp, only caring about stance, as for standing fully on the side of justice, it depends on whether it is in one’s interest.
"Why would I accuse you? We rise and fall together, if your status declines, and you are oppressed, it would be of no benefit to ! Now, we are both in the sa boat, father and son."
Ji Lingkong spoke with an air of detached ease, completely undisturbed by the Councilman’s cautious and probing gaze.
The Councilman pondered, "You know the embassy incident was orchestrated by , but can you guess my purpose in doing so?"
"I can guess a bit, but I don’t know if I’ve grasped the core," Ji Lingkong responded with confidence.
"Let’s hear it."
"Father, you’ve served almost three terms as Councilman, each term lasting seven years, and have controlled the country for twenty years, holding the longest tenure among all the Counciln. But in one year, you will have to step down, because the constitution stipulates that the Councilman cannot serve more than three consecutive terms."
"You seem to know quite a bit about my affairs, but how does it relate to the war with Yalan this ti?"
"Managing a gigantic empire for twenty years, commanding wind and rain, becoming a central figure at the summit of world power, such status, such power, is a massive temptation. Seeing the empire grow stronger under your leadership, and you’ve beco accustod to wielding power, nominally under the Queen, but in reality, the true Regent of the Empire. In a year, will you willingly hand over the empire you built with your own hands to the next successor?"
Ji Lingkong’s calm yet incisive voice transmitted through the screen, directly piercing the Councilman’s eardrum, shaking his soul to the core, causing him to hold his breath, his eyes suddenly emitting a cold and sharp glint.
The ambition buried deep within, never seen by the daylight, was suddenly exposed, naked for all to see.
