Chapter 374 The Hesitant Admiralty Minister

return  ←  list chapter  →   return

Glass Island, White Queen.

The residence of Lord Admiral Dewes Ramos is here.

Both are founding families, Ramos Manor and Moriarty Manor are not far apart.

Their ancestor was Lancelot, a hero as brave as Lancelot. He fought to the end and died gloriously in the fiercest war against the giants. Finally, after the crown master completed his ascension, he became one of his knights.

If there are nobles in Avalon, then the Ramos family should be considered the top nobles.

It is precisely because of the bravery of the ancestors of the Ramos family that their family has controlled the navy or army for hundreds of years. The head of his family could always become the commander-in-chief of an army or even the great guardian of Avalon from the previous generation, who was the uncle of Devis Ramos.

Old Dewes was walking in the garden, taking care of the garden with garden shears.

He has gray hair, a straight back, and a stern face full of wrinkles. Although no one provoked him, the corners of his mouth were still slightly curved downward, making him look as scary as an angry lion.

It’s not that he can’t hire good gardeners, it’s just that he always feels that the gardens designed by those people don’t match his wishes. Although he himself can’t put forward clear requirements, he just feels that the gardens those people pruned are not what he wants. It's not good here and it's not good there either. Anyway, I am not satisfied with it no matter how I change it.

In the end, I have to do it myself, which is far from good, but at least it’s not awkward.

"I suddenly have a bad feeling, Sheldon."

The old man said slowly.

The chief secretary Sheldon who followed him also had a strong and tall body. He looked much younger than Old Dewes, but he was at least forty or fifty years old. There were obvious wrinkles on his forehead and at the corners of his eyes.

Sheldon thought for a moment, "I think you are talking about the recent incident in the ministry."

His words were vague enough. But it was enough for Old Dewes to understand.

"I sometimes wonder if this is the right thing to do."

The old man turned his back to the secretary and said slowly, "I did not cooperate with Tommy when he became powerful, because I saw He is just a mongrel orphan with impure blood and no mother. When that fat pig Charles invited me to work for the Star Antimony people, I didn’t even bother to associate with him. I couldn’t explain why, I just looked down on him.”

Maybe it’s because he once had a tall and strong body, but he became a fat pig who struggled to walk; maybe it’s because he once dreamed of changing Avalon, but met Give up immediately when difficulties arise

Or maybe you just think that the reason why Charles Drost was found by the Star Antimony people is because he is the "cheapest" one. If you work with him, your own style will be lowered.

He is not a pedantic knight, nor can he become a "noble".

But that would have to come to the Star Antimony people in person to invite him. If the price is high enough, the title of Earl would be good.

Rather than having no face at allLu, just let Charles recruit him.

Do you think he is a follower of Charles’s fat pig?

On the other hand, it is precisely because Charles has caused trouble for himself that he must be radical now act.

When he was recruited by Charles, he considered leaving a way out for himself, so he did not report the matter.

After all, Xing Antimony was so aggressive at the time that he directly targeted Avalon, and the Iris Man didn't seem to have the right attitude. The royal family of Avalon is still being cursed one after another and seems to have no ability to resist; alchemy has been open for so many years and the huge investment has not yielded any good results in the end; the future successor monarchs all seem to have no future, and the old man Meg looked dying too.

Seeing this dilapidated ship crumbling, he had to prepare to change jobs.

Who would have thought that Charles would be captured alive in a blink of an eye

He even gave in and was willing to spit out the secret information in exchange for survival

You fat pig, die Is it okay to die?

Old Dewes judged keenly that there must be a reason for the sudden improvement in the diplomatic attitude of the Star Antimony people and the sudden overture of kindness from Iris to the extent of betraying national interests. of.

This is probably because the Star Antimony people failed to successfully assassinate him, allowing Drost to be safely and secretly imprisoned.

This means that the entire intelligence network of the Star Antimony people in Avalon may be dug up, and the Star Antimony people must show their good will to buy time to evacuate.

It is impossible that Old Dewes did not confirm this information with other colleagues, but he was sure that Minister Drost could not have only invited himself.

The Inspectorate has been arresting people during this period, and those who were arrested did not resist fiercely. They must have had something to do with them.

Old Dewes didn’t know which time Charles would betray him, but it was only a matter of time before he finally revealed his information.

Then he actually has only two options to choose from.

One is to die quickly, and pass on the title of head of the Ramos family to future generations before he is betrayed. This kind of mistake is just a matter of attitude and alignment, so it can be done generously. No further investigation. After all, he hadn't really made any big mistakes.

The other is to carry it to the end.

Find ways to gain some leverage over the other party, and create some if you can’t get it, and eventually form a balance of power. I won’t mess with you, and you shouldn’t mess with me.

In fact, some people chose the first one.

Some old knights of his generation died this winter, not because of the cold weather but because they committed suicide out of fear of crime.

All of this is a chain reaction triggered by the arrest of Minister Drost.

But some people still take chances.

The reason why Old Dewes did not do this is actually because there is currently no one in the Ramos family who can inherit. There are very few promising people among his descendants, and he is the most talented and most promising to succeed him.'s grandson. And he is still too young to be the head of the family, let alone a minister.

The Lord of the Admiralty is not a messy minister who can be appointed as long as the Queen authorizes him, like the "Minister of the Ministry", nor is he a minister of agriculture or trade who can be appointed by just anyone, or even a profession that he does not understand. The position held by the official.

If you want your grandson to inherit the position of minister, you must at least promote him to the position of rear admiral. This is the minimum requirement.

However, this period is a time of peace, and there is no war at all. Promotion in peacetime can only be achieved through seniority. And in this case, Her Majesty the Queen is still encouraging "non-authoritarian paths to join the military." This means that he must also give up part of his promotion slots to extraordinary people who are not on the authoritarian path, so as to ensure that they can occupy a certain proportion of the senior management of the Navy.

And if he fails to pass on the position of minister while he is still alive, he can only pass it on to several generals under him according to the rules.

Although it may only be temporarily stored in name

But once it is passed on, when you die, it will be up to your descendants, the wastes who have struggled to reach the third level, if the other party If it can be kept safely, it may never be passed back again.

The position of Great Guardian has been unable to be retained. If the position of military minister cannot be retained, then the Ramos family will have ceased to exist in name only. Even the Moriarty family will at least still have it. The wealth has been retained by generations of business, and the Ramos family only has connections in the military.

If even this is gone, then they will only have a fixed seat in the Round Table Hall.

For this reason, he must take action.

“According to the results of our discussion, after getting this information, we should choose to disclose part of it immediately and disclose the part that Aleister is a spy for Star Antimony. In this way, we can reduce Aiwass’s reputation. Moriarty's influence."

Old Dewes said slowly, "But I'm wondering if there is any other way."

Her Majesty Sophia is dying soon. The Arbitration Hall has asked ministers to stay at home, indicating that this is just for the next few days.

After they published the incident in the newspapers and spread it throughout Avalon, a week-long mourning period would immediately begin.

During this period of time, Aiwass could not angrily quarrel with them in the newspaper, which would only arouse public dissatisfaction. After all, the evidence in their hands is solid and approved by the intelligence agencies of the three countries. If he wanted to give a counterexample, the appraisal from the Inspectorate was not enough.

After a week, the matter was basically settled. People have already formed an established impression and cannot tolerate him talking back.

Then they can negotiate with Aiwass and just let the Department hang there and do nothing. As a result, they won't do anything.

"But I always feel a little flustered today. It feels like something is going to happen. I think this plan is not safe enough."

Old Dewes frowned "Because of this In the final analysis, it is nothing more thanDriving away Aleister and making people suspect that Minister Moriarty betrayed the interests of Avalon for love, they felt that this young minister was not reliable enough. But if we can't get more evidence from him, it will be difficult to completely stop his actions. At most, his actions will only increase public opinion resistance. If he really didn't care about his reputation and the Moriarty family's industry, he might completely anger the other party.

“So, I am wondering if there is a possibility that we give this letter directly to Minister Moriarty and we will only keep a copy and sell it to the old guys who are planning to do something. Drop it."

The old man squinted his eyes, his dangerous gaze flickering, "This will save the Ramos family and make others spit out something."
