Jacob simply told Su Cheng that gozewen secretly summoned Gail and Ilsa a few days ago and told them that he would replace the crown prince with Ilsa and abdicate ahead of time.

"The reason why gozewen wants to abdicate ahead of time is not only because he is old and ill and does not have enough energy to deal with government affairs, but also because gozewen wants his majesty Ilsa to ascend the throne earlier so that she can sit on the throne as soon as possible."

Jacob explained to Su Cheng.

"Gozeven ruled the britannian empire for decades, and the emperors of these decades were not made in vain. Even now, he is old and seriously ill, but his prestige is still there."

"As long as gozewen is alive, no one dares to make a mistake."

"That's why gozewen decided to abdicate early, let his majesty Ilsa ascend the throne early, and use his prestige to deter those who do not obey Ilsa's rule."

"Although Ilsa has successfully ascended the throne now, it doesn't mean everything is all right."

"His highness Gail very obediently gave up the crown prince and the future throne, but no one knows whether he really gave up this supreme power."

"In order to sit on the throne, father and son, father and daughter, brothers and husband and wife hurt each other. Throughout the history of various countries, there are simply not too many similar stories."

"Even if his highness Gail is really willing to give up the throne, the younger brothers under his highness Gail may not be willing."

"After all, his highness Gail has been a crown prince for decades. He has his own party and fanatical supporters."

"What I am most worried about now is that his highness Gail's followers and his highness Gail's fanatical supporters refuse to accept Ilsa's rule and want to push his highness Gail to the throne and do things secretly."

The more Jacob spoke, the more dignified his face became.

"This problem is actually very serious. If it is not handled well, it is very likely to lead to extremely serious consequences."

Hearing this, Su Cheng nodded solemnly.

Needless to say, Su Cheng knows how bad the consequences will be if this problem is not handled well.

"Therefore, the urgent task now is to consolidate and strengthen the power to support the rule of his majesty Ilsa."

Jacob continued.

"Weaken those who support his highness Gail."

"His highness Gail has been crown prince for decades, and his followers have already become a climate. It is very difficult to deal with them."

"But no matter how hard it is, I will do it."

Jacob's tone was firm.

"Politics doesn't have much fancy. There is only one secret: make more friends and fewer enemies, and win over all those who can. "

"I now... Or the 'Empress' now need friends."

"Su Cheng, would you like to help me and the queen?"

Jacob did not speak too implicitly or tactfully.

Because Jacob knew what Su Cheng's answer would be, he didn't need to be too complicated and euphemistic.

And Su Cheng's answer didn't come out of Jacob's expectation and didn't disappoint Jacob.

Su Cheng straightened his clothes and then said in a positive tone:

"I will do my best."

……

……

Su Cheng didn't think much about this problem, so he decided to unconditionally turn to the "empress faction".

Because whether it is on emotion or theory, Su Cheng will choose to fall to the "empress school".

Theory - Ilsa is the New Crown Prince appointed by gozewen and the new legitimate emperor of the Empire. As a minister, Su Cheng naturally wants to support the legitimate emperor of the Empire, not Gail, the "old crown prince" who was deprived of the crown prince.

On love - before becoming a knight, Su Cheng was Ilsa's teacher and had deep feelings with Ilsa.

And Jacob is also his own father. Su Cheng himself can't count how much help Jacob has given him.

Su Cheng has always believed that if there was no Jacob, there would be no Su Cheng, the 30th head of Michael knights and the highest leader of the northern front.

Emotionally speaking, Su Cheng will certainly choose to help Ilsa and Jacob who have deep feelings with him, rather than Gail who does not have much intersection with him.

Since Ilsa ascended the throne, the political situation of the British Empire has been divided into three factions——

The "Jacobians" who support the Queen's rule, or the "empress".

Dislike Ilsa and support the "Gaelic faction" of "Gaelic".

And the "neutrals" who do not support or involve themselves.

Long before Ilsa ascended the throne, Jacob began to prepare to suppress the Gaelic sect.

As Jacob and Su Cheng said, the secret of politics is to make more friends, fewer enemies, and win over everyone who can win over

Jacob wooed everyone who could get into the "empress faction".

Su Cheng happened to be one of the people who was drawn in.

Su Cheng was Jacob's confidant. Jacob believed that he could succeed 100% to win over Su Cheng.

After a secret talk with Su Cheng, the day after Ilsa ascended the throne. Jacob sent Su Cheng to temporarily take charge of the training of the garrison of the imperial capital on the grounds that "the garrison of the imperial capital has not been trained for a long time".

He also ordered to delay Su Cheng's return to the north and temporarily hand over all the affairs of the Michael knights and the northern front to Willie, deputy head of the Michael knights.

This appointment contains a great deal of information.

Training the garrison responsible for defending the imperial capital - this task can't be done by anyone. The people who can receive this task are often only the confidants of those in power.

Ilsa is still young and unable to handle government affairs. Jacob is the current authority of the Empire and the current "acting emperor" of the British Empire.

Just after the queen ascended the throne, Jacob, who is currently in power in the Empire, sent Su Cheng to do this task that others are not qualified to intervene, which is tantamount to saying to everyone in a disguised form: Su Cheng is my man and the Queen's man.

Tell everyone in disguise that the head of Michael's knights, the top leader of the northern front and the third leader of the Imperial military are the "Queen faction".

The three leaders of the Imperial military -- we can imagine how powerful and prestigious they are.

Jacob announced to everyone that Su Cheng was a "Queen" and immediately deterred many "Gaelic" and "neutral" people who were not firm in thought.

In addition to wooing Su Cheng, Jacob also wooed Albert, who was the head of the Rachel knights and the supreme leader of the southern front.

Albert and Jacob were good friends, so Jacob easily succeeded in winning Albert into the "Queen school".

Jacob also wanted to draw Iser into the "Queen faction", but he failed.

Iser has always been a firm "centrist".

At any time, Iser strictly abides by the principle of neutrality and never goes to any faction.

This time is no exception. After Ilsa ascended the throne, Iser did not make any statement, neither supporting Ilsa nor Gail.

Although it was a pity that he failed to win over Iser, Jacob was satisfied with the success of winning over Su Cheng and Albert.

Among the three major knights, two fell to the "empress faction" and one strictly adhered to "neutrality". The second and third leaders of the military are "empress faction", which has been a great deterrent to the "Gaelic faction".
