Dragon Spirit Kingdom, the Council Hall.

This should be the first time that Long Yandao, the Chief Marshal of the Dragon Guardian Army and the Duke Who Protects the Nation, has brought some Dragon Guardian Army generals to participate in the council to discuss how to allocate resources.

A total of more than three hundred people came to the hall.

Among them, the smallest title was that of a viscount of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom.

Lin Chen was naturally among them.

However, today Lin Chen was wearing the uniform of the Dragon Guardian Army's deputy commander.

Yes!

Lin Chen was promoted.

Directly promoted to deputy commander.

Originally, this should have been a position held by someone of Xiong Nate'er's level.

However, Xiong Nate'er did not go to the imperial battlefield.

Even the last time, when Long Yandao sensed that the situation was not right and sent someone to call him, Xiong Nate'er refused on the grounds that he was going to Lingnan to inspect military affairs.

As a result, in the battle outside God City, it was Aliqisi who rushed to help Long Yandao resolve Jing Qicang's attack.

Although Long Yandao didn't say anything about it, he didn't even look at Xiong Nate'er when he saw him.

The position of Deputy Commander of the Dragon Guardian Army was directly given to Lin Chen.

Xiong Nate'er's face was very unsightly.

The atmosphere in the council hall was also slightly oppressive.

First, Long Yandao arrived.

Moreover, he also brought many rewards for the Dragon Guardian Army.

Harriet, Pang Jia, Big Hade, Little Hade, Jin Mu, Jiang Haihe... all were present.

Jian Nishang was also there.

However, she stood beside Lin Chen.

In addition, some of Long Yandao's guards were lined up on both sides.

This should be the first time that the Dragon Spirit Kingdom's council had been convened under the eyes of so many soldiers.

However, since Duke Shun, Long Yanhui, did not speak, the nobles naturally did not dare to object.

The council began.

Long Yanhui, as the chief, began to speak: "First of all, this time our Dragon Spirit Kingdom..."

Before he could finish, Long Yandao interrupted him and said, "Get straight to the point. I have spread the Divine Power Aurora all over the Dragon Spirit Kingdom. Now it is a matter of allocating the soul veins. Now, I want to hear how the council plans to allocate them!"

Long Yandao really didn't give him any face!

Long Yanhui and Long Yandao were both of the "Yan" generation.

The two were also cousins.

However, they had long been acquaintances who only nodded to each other when they met.

Long Yanhui bit the bullet and said, "Since the founding of our Dragon Spirit Kingdom, our ancestors established the council in order to protect the meritorious officials who fought with him to conquer the world and their descendants, meaning that the royal family and these nobles would share the world... As early as the time of the ancestors, the rules were set that anything belonging to the Dragon Spirit Kingdom would be divided into four parts for the royal family, four parts for the nobles, and two parts for the people of the world."

"What do you mean? What about our Dragon Guardian Army?"

At this time, Jiang Haihe spoke.

That's right, it was him!

A Blue Star person.

Guess why Jiang Haihe is here?

Moreover, Long Yandao allowed him to enter as the commander of the Longsheng Army.

That's right, after Lin Chen was promoted to Deputy Commander of the Dragon Guardian Army, he completely handed over the Longsheng Army to Jiang Haihe.

And now Jiang Haihe's words were what Long Yandao had told him to say.

In the past, Long Yandao only focused on the battlefield and never participated in the distribution of benefits, because the cake was so small that it couldn't be divided, and he was too lazy to divide it, as long as the military expenses were sufficient.

But this time, the cake was too big.

Such a large mine in the entire Imperial Capital, if divided, could be divided into one hundred veins, equivalent to the soul veins of the eighteen mountains extending outside Tianyue City.

Such generous rewards, but the Dragon Guardian Army, which had worked so hard to obtain them, received nothing?

What about Lin Chen?

Didn't he get anything either?

The reward for the first settlement on the imperial battlefield was at least double that of a level one battlefield.

Note that it was at least!

In other words, it might be more than that.

But how exactly was it calculated?

Of course, according to points!

This time, the Dragon Spirit Kingdom was able to obtain such a large soul vein because Lin Chen alone scored 1500 points.

Unprecedented!

As a result, when it came to dividing the cake, Lin Chen didn't get anything?

Long Yandao let Jiang Haihe in to find someone to say these words.

"Isn't this person a traitor? Duke Who Protects the Nation, shouldn't you ask him to leave?" Long Yanhui said with a cold face.

Hearing his words, Long Yandao sneered.

It was indeed like this.

In the eyes of these nobles, there were only vested interests.

They only cared about themselves.

Why did he say that?

Long Yanhui's opinion alone could not represent all the nobles!

The nobles had a meeting together before the council began.

It was impossible not to discuss it.

This time, with such generous rewards, how could the nobles not have their eyes on them?

A dog can never stop eating shit!

"This person is now the commander of the Longsheng Army under the Dragon Guardian Army of the Imperial Battlefield. He was recommended by Deputy Commander Lin Chen and guaranteed by him. Lin Chen was promoted to Deputy Commander of the Dragon Guardian Army for his military merits. You can ask these people if any of them have any objections?" Long Yandao said calmly.

"Without Deputy Commander Lin Chen, where would the Dragon Spirit Kingdom's first place come from?"

Little Hade was the first to speak.

Then, all the Dragon Guardian Army soldiers echoed, "This time, the Dragon Spirit Kingdom was able to take first place, and Deputy Commander Lin Chen made great contributions!"

"You!"

Long Yanhui said coldly, "This is the council, what right do you have to speak here?"

"Haha!"

At this time, Lin Chen stood up and asked Long Yanhui face to face, "These people are soldiers and generals who fought for the Dragon Spirit Kingdom on the imperial battlefield. Without them, let alone cultivation resources, even the entire Dragon Spirit Kingdom and even the human race might have been wiped out! And now, you actually say that they are not qualified to speak at the meeting to distribute the spoils of war?"

"Your Majesty, the spoils of war are distributed by the council. This is the rule set by our ancestors! Now, what is the Dragon Guardian Army doing? Are they going to mutiny? Could it be that they are going to rebel?"

Seeing that Lin Chen had stood up, and his voice was sonorous and forceful, coupled with the numerous Dragon Guardian Army soldiers, Long Yanhui knew that he could not suppress them alone. But Long Yanhui's eyes were also very fierce.

During the imperial battlefield, seeing Lin Chen thriving and Long Yandao being conferred the title of Imperial First-Class Marshal on the spot, Long Yanhui's heart was already very dissatisfied!

Since inheriting the title of Duke Shun, Long Yanhui had been close to the nobles and had smoothly taken control of the council... It could be said that he had almost grasped all the nobles of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom!

This was a very large force.

First of all, with the annexation of land and the annexation of resources, the nobles had gone from controlling about 40% of the country's cultivation resources at the beginning of the founding to now controlling more than 60% of the land and cultivation resources.

In addition, more than 80% of the rogue cultivators in the Dragon Spirit Kingdom had no choice but to rely on these rules in order to have resources to cultivate.

What a huge force this was!

Therefore, despite the fact that the Dragon Guardian Army had just won a great victory and their morale was high, when they returned to the Dragon Spirit Kingdom, Duke Shun, Long Yanhui, still dared to summon the nobles and suppress their interests!

After all, this time the benefits were too great!

Even reducing it by 10% would be a huge loss for the noble camp.

In fact, Long Yandao had already anticipated such a situation.

After all, this was the nature of the nobles.

He had even discussed it with Lin Chen... However, when Long Yandao and Lin Chen discussed this matter, there was another person beside them.

But this person was not the king of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom.

In Long Yandao's view, the current king sitting on the throne, although he seemed to want to work hard to govern and even wanted to take back land from the nobles, was actually a very selfish person.

A very simple reason... If you, the king, really wanted to change the phenomenon of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom being gradually eroded by the nobles, then why didn't you directly ask for help from the Dragon Guardian Army?

Wouldn't Long Yandao support him?

However, Long Yandao had never been asked by the king.

What did the king do?

He went to dig Long Yandao's corner, poaching some capable people from the Dragon Guardian Army, like Jin Qiang was one of them.

Then, he let Jin Qiang cause trouble in the local area, snatching the nobles' land...

Why did the king do this?

Very simple!

Because he didn't want to reform.

He just wanted to be rich himself!

So he directly grabbed land and mines.

As for the chaotic state of the country, he had no way to deal with it.

So Long Yandao also saw through this person.

So, who did Long Yandao bring over to discuss with Lin Chen?

Long Qingyue!

The eldest princess of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom.

It was also at that time that Lin Chen realized that Long Yandao and Long Qingyue had such a relationship... a coalition of interests.

Indeed.

The Dragon Guardian Army's military expenses had always been supplied by Long Qingyue. She and Long Yandao must have had many opportunities to deal with each other, and it was certainly natural for the two to become a coalition of interests.

At that time, the council had not yet begun.

The nobles were having a meeting together.

The king was also discussing with some people.

And Long Yandao and Long Qingyue naturally pulled Lin Chen along, and the three of them had a meeting together.

At that time, Long Yandao and Long Qingyue were only discussing how to unite and fight for some benefits for the Dragon Guardian Army from the nobles and the royal family.

The two even discussed for a long time how much they could get.

Until Lin Chen spoke, "Princess, Duke Who Protects the Nation, if the Dragon Guardian Army still needs you to plan like this every time to obtain benefits, I think even if we reach the level three battlefield, we will definitely not go far! Maybe there is still a risk of not destroying the country. The level three battlefield, I heard that there are several powerful countries in the angel race alone, such as the Light Angels, Dark Angels, Holy Angels, and Fallen Angels, and each country is no weaker than the Immortal Spirit Race!"

This was indeed the case.

The opponents on the level three battlefield were all much stronger than those on the level two battlefield!

But what could they do?

Who told the king and the nobles to be so selfish!

The benefits that the Dragon Guardian Army had won on its own, but with the rules of the ancestors in place, they could only try to fight for them on their own.

Strive from the hands of the king and the nobles!

Seeing that Long Yandao and Long Qingyue were not speaking, Lin Chen sneered, "Don't you two think it's ridiculous? These rewards were all won by the Dragon Guardian Army. The commander of the battlefield is the Duke Who Protects the Nation, and the MVP of the battlefield is me! And now, I even have to beg them to give me a little reward. What kind of logic is this?"

At this time, Long Yandao finally understood the meaning of Lin Chen's words. He said in a muffled voice, "Lin Chen, what do you want to do?"

"Is our Deputy Commander Lin planning a military coup?"

Long Qingyue looked at Lin Chen and asked meaningfully.

Lin Chen did have this intention.

He originally thought that Long Yandao would at least support him.

But Long Yandao said coldly, "No! The Dragon Spirit Kingdom must belong to the Long family! Lin Chen, no matter what, I, Long Yandao, will always be a member of the Long family. Do you want me to betray my ancestors?"

Long Yandao was a very principled person.

Although he was a show-off and liked to pretend.

But when it came to righteousness, he would never be lacking!

Hearing his words, Lin Chen was silent for a while.

But at this time, a person walked in.

Lin Chen even knew him.

"Mr. Winter?" Lin Chen greeted him.

Long Yandao frowned, a strong killing intent appeared in his eyes, and he asked, "Why did you come in... What did you hear?"

"Duke Who Protects the Nation, calm down!"

Winter smiled slightly and immediately said, "I will not spread today's events. In fact... I asked the princess to let me eavesdrop on the side. Moreover, I think Chief Lin's words are not necessarily impossible!"

"What do you mean?"

Long Yandao frowned and said coldly, "What? Are you all going to rebel?"

"No!"

Winter quickly said, "Duke Who Protects the Nation, don't misunderstand. I just think that the king needs to be changed, and the entire system of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom needs to be changed! You have also seen that the nobles' rule cannot bring any benefits to the Dragon Spirit Kingdom... Since that is the case, why not change them all?"

"Hehe, change them all... Who are you going to change to be the king? The princes in the royal family are still young... If you want me to be the king, forget it. I can't be one, and I don't want to be one!" Long Yandao seemed to understand the meaning of Winter's words.

What he thought was that Winter was planning to make him the king.

Long Yandao naturally didn't agree.

He belonged to the imperial battlefield!

Being a king... was too tiring.

So Long Yandao scolded, "Stop it! To be a king, you must be a direct descendant of the royal family."

But Winter smiled and said, "Why can't Princess Long be the one?"

"The princess..."

Long Yandao was stunned.

Winter continued, "The Cold Ice Kingdom has the Night Queen; the Immortal Spirit Kingdom once had a Crown Princess... Then why can't our Dragon Spirit Kingdom have a queen? The princess has not married, and her bloodline is even purer. Can't she be the queen?"

"Yes, why can't the princess be the one?" Long Yandao looked enlightened.

Long Qingyue!

This was his staunch ally.

Moreover, Long Qingyue was not just a vase. She had been managing the royal family's finances all these years, and her methods were much better than the current king!

The most important point... Long Qingyue also opposed the nobles' rule!

"It seems like it can really be done!"

Long Yandao let go, but he immediately asked, "Princess, what do you think?"

"I..." Long Qingyue was a little flustered, but she quickly stabilized her mind, glanced at Long Yandao and Lin Chen, as well as Winter, her loyal servant who wanted to push her to the top, and couldn't help but ask, "What about my brother?"

Her brother was the current king.

"The king must die, and the nobles must be eliminated!" Winter spoke.

This merchant, for the first time, showed his fangs as a strategist...

The lines buried before were being collected one by one.

Winter...

Remember, he once said in Tianyue City that he hoped to push Long Qingyue to the top?

The fourth update today!

This chapter was not finished, it should be a big chapter of eight thousand words, but there is no way, I am afraid that everyone is waiting anxiously, so let's do it this way!

The flashback technique has not been able to connect back... Only the next chapter will connect back to the council.
