Chapter 1092

"It seems you should understand what I want to say..."

Looking at the Princess who was suddenly shocked and subconsciously clenched her fists, Leon sighed:

"Just like you summarized just now, what you and your reform faction represent is the royal family that 'wants to take back power', not the royal family that 'wants to make the Kingdom strong and ordinary people no longer suffer'.

For the royal family and even the King, the 'reforms' you are pushing are not the ultimate goal, but more of a means to take back power. The reform faction you represent is actually not speaking for the royal family at all."

"..."

Hearing Leon's summary, Princess Veronica subconsciously wanted to refute, but after thinking about the situation of the royal family, she couldn't help but bite her lip hard.

Indeed... what she wanted was never what the royal family wanted.

Even among the reforms she pushed, many had to cut meat from the royal family, so although her greatest source of "power" came from the support of the royal family, she was never the spokesperson for the royal family.

"In addition, among the four factions in the capital now, the difference between your reform faction and the other three factions is very large."

After looking at the Princess's somewhat pale lips, Leon reminded somewhat unbearably:

"Whether it is the noble faction or the parliament faction, they are speaking for the class they came from and fighting for interests for the forces behind them. Only your reform faction is different.

Your greatest support comes from the royal family, but the things you want to push and fight for have a great conflict with the interests of the royal family, and are even completely contradictory. So your 'basic board' is actually not as stable as the other three factions.

The reason why there is no problem now is because your main goal in the past has always been to take back the power seized by the old nobles, and to regulate commercial activities to avoid the parliament passing some too outrageous things.

This point is consistent with the royal family's idea of taking back power. After all, your identity is the Princess, and the power cake you grabbed is also equivalent to entering the royal family's mouth. So the royal family has always supported you, but..."

"But it will be different later, right?"

Leaning powerlessly on the back of the chair, Princess Veronica said with a pale face:

"Father... the royal family's tolerance for me is limited to those irrelevant parts. Once I try to fully push the reform and start to thin out the cake in the hands of the royal family, the support for me will stop immediately.

This is really... I originally thought that those measures could make the Kingdom like a pool of stagnant water come alive, and even become more and more prosperous. This kind of thing that is beneficial to all royal families, they would naturally be willing to support me, but... it was me who thought too simply..."

"Not necessarily, after all, I'm just guessing out of thin air."

Looking at her look of being lost, Leon couldn't help but comfort:

"The measures you push can make the Kingdom's cake bigger. The royal family might still support you. These things may not necessarily happen."

"Not necessarily, it will definitely happen."

Closing her beautiful eyes slightly, the Princess, who was leaning powerlessly on the back of the chair, smiled bitterly:

"Before you appeared, although I knew Watching Watching Qiaoshuya was not talented, Father... he still wanted to marry me out, and all the targets he chose were people from other Kingdoms.

I previously thought that he was prepared to marry me, who was hosting the reform, far away after the reform encountered obstacles and the contradictions between the factions in the Kingdom were intensified, so as to eliminate disputes and stabilize the chaotic situation. But now it seems that he probably thought about it even 'earlier'."

After thinking about the documents she moved home yesterday, Princess Veronica said with complex eyes:

"If I guessed correctly, Father should be waiting patiently now.

He is waiting for me to finish pushing the selection order, complete the rectification of the military department, and suppress the influence of the old nobles in the military department; waiting for me to propose a motion to expand the voting power of citizens at the parliament meeting in a few days, and slowly thin out the power in the hands of big businessmen and the Prime Minister.

And after I finish these two things and help him solve the constraints of the nobles and the parliament, as long as he finds a farther Kingdom and marries me, this troublesome daughter who has whimsical ideas, then everything else will not be a problem."

"..."

"Haha, no family affection, only interests. This is really the style of the royal family." After glancing at Leon who was silent opposite, Princess Veronica smiled self-deprecatingly:

"Clearly, as long as I complete the marriage with you, the reform can be thoroughly pushed forward, but I went to Father several times, but he didn't express his position directly in the end, but rather a bit noncommittal.

I thought at the time that he hoped to support Watching Watching Qiaoshuya to the position of King, so he didn't want me to have too much power and gave Watching Watching Qiaoshuya a chance to struggle. But what I didn't expect was that he had never considered me, this daughter, at all. I am just a tool used to clear obstacles!"

"..."

Ah this... I seem to have caused trouble...

Looking at the pale blue blood vessels appearing on the white neck, and the Princess whose cheeks were flushed with an abnormal red, Leon couldn't help but open his mouth, wanting to comfort her but not knowing what to say, so he could only say dryly:

"That... do you want to eat something first?"

"Sorry, I'm afraid I can't eat it."

The Princess, whose emotions had always been very stable, rarely lost her composure this time. After smiling miserably with a pale face, she stood up directly and stumbled toward the door.

Finding that her emotional state was not quite right, and even had a bit of a precursor to blackening, Leon hurriedly reached out to help her, and couldn't help but ask:

"Where are you going?"

"I..."

The Princess, who was pulled by Leon's arm, gritted her teeth, then took a deep breath, pushed Leon's hand away, and bit her lip:

"I'm going back to finish what I should do..."

What you should do... what do you mean by what you should do?

Hearing her answer, Leon's heart couldn't help but be shocked.

Looking at your current mental state, the so-called "what you should do" wouldn't be what I said before, gather a team of guards to kill into the palace, let your father hand over the throne immediately, and hang anyone who dares to object, right?!

Ah this... I was just chatting politics with you while waiting for a meal, how did it turn into a bloody coup?

"This... do you want to think about it again?"

Looking at the Princess whose eyes were full of resentment, unwillingness, and a hint of sadness that was hard to hide, Leon hurriedly held her back and persuaded her incoherently:

"I'm not against you seeking justice for yourself, but should you prepare more?

If you kill into the palace now, what if you are not prepared enough and can't beat the palace guards, and are counter-killed by your father? You'd better plan for a few more days!"

"You... what are you talking about!"

Hearing Leon's words, even though she was full of resentment, Princess Veronica couldn't help but stagnate, then stomped her feet hard and glared back somewhat angrily.

"No matter what, that is my father. He just wants to marry me far away, not wanting my life! How could I do that!"

"Oh, I see..."

"..."

Looking at Leon, who breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the hand that was grabbing her arm, and sat back, Princess Veronica's lips couldn't help but twitch.

I how feel... just now I didn't impulsively do it, you seem to be a little disappointed?
