Chapter 606 The People's Choice
The sound of Governor Drago hammering the table caught his son's attention.

"What's the matter with you?"

Governor Drago looked up at his son standing at the door of the room, pondered for a while, then waved, and handed over the letter in his hand, "In the future, you will sit in my current position and make a choice, you Come share your opinion."

Everyone has likes and dislikes, it's normal, even a father will have kids who like it and kids who don't.

In Governor Drago's heart, his eldest son and younger son are undoubtedly the people who please him the most.

The eldest son has been with him for the longest time. Of course, this is also the advantage of almost all "bosses". They came to the world earlier than other brothers and sisters. As long as their performance is not too bad, they will be loved by their parents.

I like the younger son purely because of a doting, or a change to myself. He is strict enough to other children, and he no longer wants to be like that. In addition, he was a little older when the younger son was born. Let him have too much love for his youngest son for no reason.

As for the second son, he doesn't like it very much, he cares too much about calculations and ignores the advantages of being a ruler.

It’s not that conspiracy calculations are bad, it’s just that that kind of method is not very suitable for rulers to rule their people. No matter what rulers need to do, they only need to have people post an announcement to do what they want to do. There is no need for conspiracy and trick.

Using some conspiracies and tricks to realize the ideas of some rulers, to reverse people's ideas and actively cooperate with the rulers seems to reduce the coldness and ruthlessness of power, but once it is revealed, it will become more troublesome.

People may hate a tyrant, but they hate rulers who are calculating, insidious and despicable.

As for the third son... the one in front of him, he seems to be very smart. He can summarize the thoughts of other brothers, find their strengths and add some of his own. No matter what kind of assessment he gives, the answer he gives is The safest, but Drago just doesn't like him.

There are not many reasons to like someone, but there are too many reasons to dislike someone.

He didn't like that this son didn't have his own opinion, he always rubbed things of the eldest and second child together, and he never expressed his opinion.

If there is no opinion from the boss and the second, let him be the first to express his thoughts, and what he says is often inferior to the boss and the second.

He also managed to win over Governor Drago's favorite youngest son to make his own amulet, which made Governor Drago often have to think about some suggestions made by several brothers because of his youngest son's amulet. The idea is biased towards the third child.

He also always wanted to please Governor Drago, pretending to be an excellent person, but he was born to be seen through by Governor Drago at a glance, which made him feel even less fond of this child—— Even the brothers have to hide their scheming when they are together, how can they make their parents like it?

So the last time he had to make a choice, he sent the oldest, youngest, and second child to the Federation, leaving only the third child.

The other three children were a little disappointed, especially the eldest, he was the most disappointed, but he never knew that this was the real protection for him.

As for the third child who always thinks that he will inherit the status and power of the provincial governor, this is not a real love for him, but an act of giving up. Unfortunately, the third child can't see this at all.

The third child took the letter respectfully, read it quickly, and gave Governor Drago an answer at a speed that was unexpected by Governor Drago.

"Father, I think we should be the first to stand up and propose to secede from the United Kingdom." The third child gave the answer so fast that Governor Drago didn't even react.

In his vision, after his son reads the letter, the only emotions he will have are "fear" and "uneasy".

The fear is because this letter is actually teaching his father, the most powerful person in this region and province to do things, and the tone is very disrespectful.

Some of the content in it should also make his son feel that a family like theirs is also controlled by the federal people, and that sense of involuntary uncontrollability will bring fear.

Then the betrayal of the country will make people's conscience uneasy.

But there were none of these, only a young man who suppressed his excitement quickly made a decision that he least wanted to face and had to face.

After a moment of silence, he looked up at his son, who was trying to look very calm, and asked, "Why did you choose this answer."

The third child answered this question almost without thinking, "Father, everyone knows that the power of the federal people in Nagalil will become stronger and stronger. You haven't gone out to see it for a long time. If you If you have been out in time, you should understand that everything is different!"

"I don't know... how to describe what's going on. The whole society is changing from an old man who is dying of old age to young and full of vitality!"

"When you pass by the street, you can no longer see those lazy people sitting on the side of the road chatting and basking in the sun, and people are busy looking for work."

"The content of chatting when people are free has also changed from some vulgar topics to things about work and life."

"What I said may not please you so much, but this is the fact that the influence of the Federation and the Federation is replacing our traditional rulers. The next Nagalil will be the era of the Federation! "

Looking at the bragging child, Governor Drago seemed to know him for the first time. This also made him realize that the influence of the Federation is terrible, so terrible that it has begun to affect people around the ruler.

He suddenly realized that what he chooses is no longer important to the people of the Federation. The layout of the Federation and their plans have begun to work. At this time, no one can easily stop the changes of the times and society.

People no longer care what the traditional rulers say or even respect the traditional rulers - see, that's what the Commonwealth is doing.

They are attacking the royal family, once the royal family falls, the authority of the traditional power that symbolizes the secular power will be removed from people's hearts, and then the religious aspect.

At that time, Nagalil may become a "small federation". He, the other provincial governors and even the royal family have nothing to do, because these are the people's own choices and what they want.

His eyes couldn't help but fell on the newspaper on the corner of the table. The title of "Who is hurting us" was half hidden. Except for a ruler like Governor Drago, who else could hurt the people so recklessly?

This is the choice of the times, and there may be some waves in the process of this change, such as the Nagalil Al-Shabaab, but they are just waves and will not affect the direction of the trend.

When history, times, and these heavy words begin to show their power, human will becomes extraordinarily small.

"Go do your thing." Governor Drago sighed with some interest, the deep impression left on him by the Old Kingdom began to blur, and he wanted to laugh a little, how could they resist people from the society? The bottom layer, the volcanic eruption that has been suppressed for hundreds of years?
The youngest bowed and left after bowing. Just as he was about to leave, Governor Drago said again, "Get ready and let the tailor make your clothes."

The third child suddenly turned around to look at Governor Drago, a little at a loss, and his face was full of uncontrollable ecstasy, "Father, you..."

Governor Drago didn't say anything, he just waved his hand and told his son to leave.

His meaning is actually already obvious, he is ready to "give way".

Seeing his son briskly leaving with a happy face, Governor Drago suddenly felt that it was absurd and funny.

A son is ecstatic because his father is about to lose power, which... probably means power!

He sighed heavily, looked at the letter in his hand, and remembered what the butler said in his mind-"The third young master has recently read a lot of books from the Federation, and has become friends with some young Federation businessmen in the city "

Life is a choice again and again, no matter how hesitant, how fearful, how helpless you are, you have to make a choice.

At this time, the High Priest was also making roughly the same decision as Provincial Governor Drago.

Under his "throne", priests from all over the province had gathered together. Looking at these priests with gloomy faces, the high priest felt a kind of unhappiness for the first time.

He licked his lips, and the expression on his face became frenzied in an instant.

"The god told me in a dream last night that it is going to choose a new high priest. Each of you will cast a golden statue for the god after you go back, and then send it to me."

"Whoever the god descends on will be the next High Priest!"

He opened his eyes that seemed to be closed. The tattoos on his face made him look a little disgusted because of the loose skin, but his eyes were very bright, and his eyes fell on everyone as if they were real.

Whenever he looked at a person, that person lowered his head and let his forehead rest on the ground to show respect to the gods.

After all, to a certain extent, the high priest also represents the incarnation of the gods walking in the world. To respect the high priest is to respect the gods.

"This time, no one around me will participate in the selection. The last candidate must be born between you, understand?"

The priests were not too enthusiastic before. Every generation of high priests will do this kind of thing once they get old. In fact, it is just a matter of collecting money. It is not up to them to decide who will fall on it. Anyway, it has never fallen on others. over.

But now, everyone is excited. The words of the high priest mean that a family of religious rulers is about to withdraw from the stage of history.

At the same time, a brand new religious family will be born!
They will definitely do their best to send piles of gold, so that the high priest will finally choose himself!
