The leader of the Al Shabaab in nagalir, MengWu Province, was trying to master complex posture skills by driving the dilapidated and non transportable car that was sold to nagalir more than a decade ago in the driving school.

In the capital of nagariel, governors from all provinces of the country gathered together. Even the federals were curious about what changes their meeting would bring. They also sent some reporters to inquire about the news.

Sometimes journalists are easier to use than agents, at least without creating riots.

In the resplendent palace, the most distinguished people in nagary gathered together. In fact, these governors, including the king, do not look like tyrants and dictators imagined by the ordinary people of the Federation.

Each of them is actually quite "elegant". There is no word "elegant" here, but the meaning is very accurate.

They are not that kind of ferocious look. They don't have the greatest momentum in heaven and earth. They are very gentle. In fact, it has something to do with the religious culture of nagaril.

It is difficult for the ruling class in faith-based countries to appear a superficial tyrant. Even if there is, he will be changed by religion when he was young, and the religious forces in nagaril have always been the first enemy of the regime.

When facing an enemy who is very good at packaging themselves, the governors must also master this technology, at least make themselves look like bad people in fairy tales, so as to better rule the people.

"It seems that the last time we met was at your bar mitzvah..." the king of nagariel looked at governor delag with some emotion, "I didn't expect that thirty years have passed in a flash, and your body looks good."

The king of Nagar is an old man who looks about 60 years old. He is very kind, speaks slowly and has a gentle voice, so that many people think that the actual "division" of Nagar is caused by the weakness of the king.

Only the governors in this room know that this is an old thing who has been acting for decades. After he stabbed his brothers and sisters and hanged his humble mother, everyone just wanted to stay away from him.

But even so, it is said that the death of two provincial governors has something to do with him. He is a king with good face and evil heart and good at disguise. He has qualified political literacy. What do you say in the words of the federals?

Ah, yes, it's a qualified film emperor.

Governor delag bent slightly and kissed the back of the king's hand. After taking back his hand, the king touched his tongue with his index finger and middle finger, stained some saliva, and drew an invisible cross on governor delag's forehead.

This is a typical religious behavior, which means that the disaster stops when it sees this horizontal, but it makes delag feel a little sick.

The old king didn't know whether he didn't brush his teeth or what happened. His saliva smelled a little, and it might stink for some time, which made delag a little bored and hard to attack.

He looked at the old king, looked at every wrinkle on his face seriously, and finally had some more smiles on his face, "yes, you were still young at that time, not like this..." there was an unspeakable provocation in the smiling expression on his face, perhaps gloating. He shook his head, "... Aging, you are old."

Obviously, it should be lamenting the ruthlessness of the years. Leng is to let the governor say the feeling of "you deserve it", but the king's expression has not changed.

"Years will not let me go, just like it will not let you go. It is fair to everyone." the king's turbid eyes seem to be filled with something called wisdom.

Governor delag has some different views on this, "you know, those foreigners outside have investigated the life expectancy on our side. He said that most of us can only live to 60."

"But we all know that some people can live longer, and years are not so fair in front of power. Nothing is absolutely fair."

"Maybe I can live longer, don't you think?"

He obviously said that he could get longer than the old king, but the old king was not angry at all. In the past, he could disguise until the last minute to lift his veil. Now he is even less worried when there are federates staring at him.

He blinked with some loose eyelids, which made people feel as if they could not open their eyes. He looked at delag and shook his head slightly, "you're right, but maybe I'll live longer..."

At this point, there was basically no need to continue talking. They smiled respectively, then said goodbye and left. Delag, who went to the distance, glanced back at the old king, with some sarcastic expressions in his eyes.

The old king has been working hard to close down the power in the hands of the provincial governor over the years. From the beginning of his reconstruction of the military system, it can be seen that he wants to unify the whole nagary.

But this kind of thought and behavior is doomed to failure. He is fighting against the ruling class of the whole nagary. No one supports him. He can't win, let alone the federals now.

The federals will not allow the old king to continue his plans, let alone make nagary completely unified in any sense. After working hard all his life, it finally came to naught. Governor delag just wanted to laugh.

With the passage of time, the governors who are hard to see on weekdays have arrived and the meeting has begun.

In fact, everyone knows that they can sit together today, and the federates have made great efforts.

After the meeting began, irrelevant people were expelled, and the old king took the lead in pointing out the theme, "the federates want us to show our attention to this matter, so I saw you here. I have to say that the federates are really great. They have done something that makes us feel unimaginable!"

The people sitting here are not ordinary little characters. They heard the ridicule and irony in the old king's words at the first time.

If the federals did not support and ensure their safety, they would not dare to get close to the king's capital, let alone sit here.

But because of the support of the federates, their courage became stronger. What's more sad is that the old king really had no way to take the federates, which just contributed to the basis of this meeting.

Someone impolitely interrupted the old king at this time, "don't say these useless things. Talk about the things the federates asked us to talk about. What do you think?"

In a word, the scene was quiet again. The old king who was interrupted was not angry, but looked at these "ministers" quietly.

No one is the first to speak. Everyone knows that speaking first means "traitor", unless the person who speaks has the opposite opinion to what the federals want them to do.

But how is that possible?

Just like everyone knows that there are some traitors under the guise of patriotism here. These traitors will collect information about some "patriots" and sell it to their federal masters. The federals are much worse than the old king. They really dare to do it if necessary.

So the strange silence at the meeting lasted more than ten minutes. No one spoke. Everyone was secretly peeping at other people's expressions and actions with their eyes, hoping to find some clues.

In the long silence, the old king's mouth was more curved. He sighed faintly, "I heard that some of you used to scold me every day, but now, you don't even dare to say a word."

"Yes, you are still young. You can't bear the price you have to pay for your wrong words. I'm old, I dare say."

"I don't know why the federal government wants us to raise the exchange rate of Galilee, but they certainly have another purpose (with different ideas from us). From my position, I won't agree to their request, but..."

He said and smiled. "If I say no, some of you will want to convince me and those who raise objections."

"It will make us unhappy and make others laugh."

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are facing a grim situation we have never encountered. The federals are quietly taking away our power, and we have nothing to do about it."

"I know that some people here are already serving the federates, but I'm not afraid to tell you that what the federates value now is not yourself, but your position here."

"One day, when the federates think they no longer need you to cover up their ambitions and serve them, they will take back what they give you."

"Don't think everything is safe. The sheep fed by wolves will never be truly safe."

He smiled and dialed the censer around him, then looked at the thoughtful governors, "I know that the appreciation of Galilee is inevitable, and I don't mind agreeing to it. At the same time, I also want to give some gifts to those who have a new direction."

"You can tell the people behind you that you persuaded me and all the opponents here by using all the methods you can think of, and we will make it public."

"There is only one purpose for us to do this, that is to make you valuable forever. The federates will not throw away when they run out. And we can also ensure that nagaril is under our control and has a chance to break away from the control of the Federation in the future."

He picked up the teacup, took a gulp, wiped the residual water stains on his mouth with a cloud white handkerchief twisted with gold wire, "this is only good for you and us, not bad!"

No one thought that the old king would say such a sentence on this occasion at that time, which makes people feel a little incredible.

It was very difficult for the rulers to admit their failure. The old king not only admitted it, but also didn't want the last fig leaf.

He said that the statement was very insulting to the governors, but it also met everyone's needs. For a time, the room fell into silence again
