However, even taking Rome into account, the worst result is to evenly split Rose with Rome."

Of course, this is just a more optimistic speculation.

Judging from the current situation, Rome's overall strength is stronger than that of Britain.If they send troops together, Rome will definitely occupy more territory than Britain, and then Britain will also guard against Rome's northern offensive.

In the meantime, if there is any accident, such as the fall of Rome during the First World War, the situation in Britain will become even worse.

However, even so, Lucifer's strategy still shocked Ekaterina.

"...What about the other two strategies"

She pondered for a moment and asked.

"Zhongce took the initiative to intervene in the Ross war in a supportive way, and at the same time supported an agent I can control, and brought Ross into the hands of a legitimate way."

Facing Lucifer, Ekaterina keenly discovered the problem.

"But you don't guarantee that your agent will be obedient."

The king of a country, even if he is just a puppet pushed up, will not be willing to be a running dog of another country.

More often, he will feel that he is the real king, and then he will start to inflate himself.

"The temptation of royal power is the sweetest poison in the world. It is more intoxicating than women and money. No one will be willing to subdue to others. This is an inevitable result.

But there will be a buffer period, and I will let him fire at Rome with all his strength in the name of revenge. Even if Ross finishes playing, I can go north, and Rome will take care of me flawlessly."

Lucifer naturally understood the trouble.

no.358 Do you want to be king

Many conditions are needed to support a king.

Once it loses control, there will be a backup plan, but if it is only a one-time consumable, the way it is used will be completely different.

However, even so, there may still be a small tail drop.

"Such a strategy is only a middle strategy. Can I understand that the risks involved are far beyond your control."

Ekaterina said after thinking for a while.

"almost.

After all, even if a puppet owns Rose, it can't cause too much trouble to Rome, and it can also make him lose sight of what he looks like."

Supporting foreign puppets is different from domestic ones.Even if you are holding the emperor like Cao Cao to make the princes, at least you have to stay with the emperor for a long time, otherwise the emperor will cause trouble, let alone the distance abroad.

"What about the best policy?"

"The best strategy! The easiest thing is to find a successor to the Lei Di to let him go to the top and continue the previous strategy.

If this is not possible, Ross will be defeated under the threat of Rome sooner or later."

"Ross doesn't have a second Lei Di."

"Yes! Ross does not have a second Lei Di, and there will not be a second Lei Di.

So, Ekaterina, if you want something from me for your husband, you can go back now."

Having said this, Lucifer directly pointed out his intentions.

His words made Ekaterina's heart sink.

At first she was confident that she could win Lucifer's support, but now she is getting such a result.

"What's the reason?"

"It's very simple! I have seen your husband Peter himself. In my eyes, he is just a waste indulging in enjoyment. He is not the person in my mind at all. Even if he is a puppet, he is not qualified."

Lucifer's words at the moment did not show any mercy.

Even if you are a puppet, you must at least understand your own situation, but that...the individual obviously doesn't.

Maybe you can find a noble lady to blow the hair, and he will just run away.

Such people can't be used as a big deal at all.

"..."

"I hope what I just said didn't hurt your heart, madam.

If it's not surprising, the strategy of coming to see me is not his own hand, it's your private decision, madam."

Lucifer got up and slowly came to Ekaterina.

"You really can't hide anything from your eyes.

Yes, it was my private decision.

Since your Majesty is so honest with me, I don't want to hide anything. The current situation in Ross makes me feel dangerous."

"Perhaps you should say that it is very dangerous.

When the Lei Di was alive, Anna had been assassinated several times.Now that the Lei Di is gone, no one knows what the royal family and nobles will do.

In the coming era, you can only go against the current. If you don't fight, you will die. There is no second choice."

If Ekaterina is just an ordinary nobleman, she can choose to escape or be neutral.As long as it does not affect the overall situation, no matter who eventually becomes the king, her status will not change much.

But the problem is that she is Peter's wife and they don't take the initiative to fight for it, and they will definitely be killed by the new king in the end.

Or in other words, the new king can only be added by stepping on other people's corpses.

Thinking about Anna's encounter, it is not difficult to guess their final fate.

"Your Majesty means that if you are applying for asylum, will you refuse?"

Ekaterina asked tentatively.

Yes, she felt in danger.

She came here precisely because she might have died in an assassination.

"Not now, I welcome Anna's relatives to take refuge.

But madam, are you sure you want to do this.

You are not my queen after all. Once Ross is stable again, if the new king asks me to hand over you through diplomatic means, at that time, I may be happy to use you as a bargaining chip between countries."

Lucifer said frankly what might happen.

And this result is just a tragedy for Ekaterina.

"It seems that no matter what, we have only a dead end."

She smiled wryly.

"Unless...win!"

"Unless you win."

"Don't think this world is fair, because this world has never been really fair.

Many times we are just a chess piece that is pushed forward by the times. Instead of... lamenting, it is better to try our best."

"I don't have the bravery of your majesty, and...that...the price may be the disappearance of Rose."

"Then it will disappear."

"what"

"I said, then it will disappear.

Pin your hopes on an ethereal fantasy, isn't this the destined result from the beginning.

If you don't plan for the worst from the beginning, the final result is doomed to disappointment."

Lucifer looked at the woman in front of her, with a hint of playfulness in her expression.

At this time, an interesting idea gradually formed in Lucifer's heart.

"..."

Ekaterina fell into a long silence.

Originally, the reason why she came here in private was to borrow the name of Peter to get Lucifer's support. Can also seek political asylum.

But now it seems that no matter how you choose, there is only a dead end.

At this time, Ekaterina was not sure of victory, so it was rather pessimistic.

While Ekaterina's mind was in confusion, Lucifer put his hand on her shoulder, and he whispered in her ear.

"Madam, do you want to be king"

"what!"

Ekaterina was startled and looked at Lucifer subconsciously.

At this moment, their eyes are very close.

She could see Lucifer's eyes very jokingly.

"I'm asking, madam, do you want to be king."

"Me! How could I possibly"

"Why not possible.

In theory, you are a prince and concubine, and you also have the right to inherit.

If you can win this royal war, you don't have to worry about anything."

Lucifer continued to talk about Ekaterina's advantages.

That's right! Although it seems easy to be overlooked, it is not impossible that Ekaterina will inherit the throne.

In this world, queens are not uncommon, not to mention the previous ones, even in Rome, there has just been a queen.

Gender is never a hindrance.

"Your Majesty, you can afford me too much."

Ekaterina said with a wry smile.

Before that, she had never thought about the choice of becoming a king.

Before that, she wanted Peter to become the king, and as the queen, she would influence the king.

But Lucifer's words at this time were affecting her, but at the same time, it seemed to open a new door.

She didn't know what was behind the door, but it seemed to make her very excited.

"I believe in my own judgment.Compared to other princes, you are more suitable to become Rose's new king.

No need to hide, at least I have seen the flame of ambition in your eyes."

Lucifer continued to speak to her in a magical voice.

Compared to other people who I don't know, this one...If he becomes the king, things will seem unexpectedly interesting.

Come on, let me see if you are the emperor Ye in history.

no.359 two in one

"Even if I want to revive Rose, I don't have that ability."

Ekaterina continued to refute, but there was a little different feeling in her voice.

She turned her head and subconsciously avoided Lucifer's gaze.

But this avoidance itself shows a guilty conscience.

Now it needs only the soil to support its growth.

"Do you have the guts to touch it?"

Lucifer raised his hand, his arm burned with the fire of sin.

This flame itself is the proof of sin karma, and it will amplify the desires of human beings.

Those who can control it will have less impact.

But those who can't control it will be swallowed by it.
