Chapter 406 - 406: The Royal Clan’s Covenant
Originally, there were many people in the manager’s team, but now there were only three old men left. The purpose of Mr. Tang’s establishment of Shadow was to supervise.
In reality, the Shadow was in charge of the other departments. As the boss of the Shadow, Mr. Tang was in charge of the managers.
There was no conflict between the two matters, but they were two independent matters. The outside world had mixed the two together.
The events that happened one after another were mistaken by the outside world as happening at the same time, which created such an illusion.
Everyone in Mr. Tang’s team held high positions in the Shadow and decided the candidates for the manager.
Old You was the main speaker, while Old Bai and Old Du added on from the side.
As Moxiu listened to the stories, he felt that they were extremely novel. After all, there were almost no records of what happened during the Great War, and he had never heard of them before.
The three of them talked about the interesting things that happened when they were young, and Moxiu became a tool for them to reminisce.
Old You said excitedly,” Old Bai, don’t look at how you’re with Old Du now. I used to chase Old Du too. If it wasn’t for the tense situation at that time, I
would have taken her down. What would you have to do?” Thinking back to the past, he was really too naive.”
When Lao Bai heard this, he looked at Lao Du, as if he was questioning him. “Don’t listen to Old You’s nonsense. That’s not true!” Old Du quickly explained.”
Elder You said unhappily,” Old Du, you’re so dishonest. You’re already so old. To put it bluntly, none of us know how many more days we can live. What are you afraid of admitting?””
“Old You, stop talking. Are you looking for a fight?” Old Du said angrily.”
“Fight?” Elder You asked. With the two of you in your current state, if I let the two of you attack together, can you win?”
“Your body is useless compared to the two of us. Have you forgotten where we are?” Lao Bai said disdainfully.”
Elder You stopped talking.
This was just one of the interludes, and they started chatting again.
MO Xiu looked at the time. He couldn’t go on like this. Although the gossip between the three elders was very interesting, if it was in the past, MO Xiu would be very willing to listen to them. But now, he didn’t have the time.
The three of them chatted like wildfire, and MO Xiu appeared a little embarrassed. He could only bring up the topic of the battle from time to time. Gathering some information was more useful than gossiping.
After Moxiu’s relentless efforts, the topic finally returned to the main topic. Moxiu failed to bring the topic back to the war, but it was not bad. The three of them talked about the early days of the peaceful era.
Back then, the few of us set various regulations to restrict the royal family,” said Elder You.” At that time, we felt that it was very correct. Now, it seems that there are still many improvements.”
‘ Yes,” Old Du said.” Especially in the royal treaty. Some clauses are unnecessary, and some clauses are not added. This has also led to a long-standing conflict between the royal family and us.””
MO Xiu couldn’t help but feel curious and asked,””Seniors, what is this imperial treaty?”
Old Du casually took out a document from the drawer under the monitor and handed it to Moxiu.
“Take a look. Don’t damage it.”
Moxiu took it and flipped through it. There were over a hundred articles on this treaty.
Almost all of the agreements were targeted at the royal family. Only a few were beneficial to the royal family, such as unlimited resources, priority in the use of herbs, and supreme power under certain circumstances.
The remaining rules were all restrictions on the imperial family.
For example, they were not allowed to enter the royal space at will, they were not allowed to use force on ordinary people, and they were not allowed to carry out missions without the permission of the manager.
Even the managers had the right to interfere in marriage and reproduction.
The more MO Xiu looked, the more puzzled he became. What was the imperial family thinking at that time? Why would they sign such an unfair treaty? When facing external enemies, humans were united.
However, in times of peace, everyone wanted to have power and more say and decision-making power due to various selfish desires.
At that time, the war had just subsided. It was the time when the royal family wanted to show their ambitions and become the leader of mankind. Why would they obediently sign such an unfair contract?
Not only that, but in the many years of conflict with the manager, he had not violated the treaty and had been suffering from such injustice until now.
Looking at MO Xiu’s frowning face, Old White asked,””Moxiu, any questions or suggestions? We can modify it according to your suggestions.” “Huh?” MO Xiu was stunned for a moment before he replied. Can I?” “Sure, you can be considered one of our managers,” said Old You.” Again?
MO Xiu was stunned. He could be said to be an outsider, the Dark Shadow Prince, or even the royal family. But a manager? Isn’t that a little far-fetched? This made Moxiu feel that these old men were up to no good, so he quickly rejected them.
” I think it’s better to just call it in. A treaty isn’t something that can be done as one pleases. It requires a long period of practice. Besides, I don’t seem to be on the same side as the manager, right?”
” You’re not on the same side as the manager, but don’t forget that you’re Mr. Tang’s disciple, the successor of the Shadow. In other words, you’re Mr. Tang, and your team is equivalent to us. Do you understand?” Lao Bai smiled. You don’t have to consider it now, but you’ll have to consider it sooner or later.”
MO Xiu really hadn’t thought of this. Making Xiao Hong and the others managers? How was this possible? Besides, there was also a clown like Liu
Ziyang. How could he be a manager?
MO Xiu nodded, but he didn’t say whether he agreed or not.
“Seniors, I have a question. I wonder if I can answer it.”
“MO Xiu, I’ve already said that you’re Elder Tang’s disciple, so you’re our disciple as well. Feel free to ask. We’ll answer whatever we know. There’s nothing we can’t let you know.””
‘ I just looked at this contract,” Moxiu said.” Most of the terms on it are unfavorable to the royal family. I want to know how the royal family agreed and signed it. How did he control the royal family after that?”
Old You glanced at Old White and said,””ls this move powerful? Do you want to learn? This is Old White’s unique skill. You can’t learn it, so when your team becomes a manager in the future, you need to make a big change.”
MO Xiu looked at Old White, wanting an answer.
“Mr. Tang, you didn’t misjudge me,” Lao Bai said with a smile.”You got the key point right away. It’s also the core secret of us managers.””
“Senior, if it’s not convenient…” MO Xiu said.
Lao Bai waved his hand and interrupted MO Xiu. He slowly said, “There’s nothing inconvenient about it. This involves two of my skills. There were three reasons why the royal family was so obedient until today. The royal space, the herbal resources, and the treaty itself.”
“Oh?”
Herbal resources were understandable. The two reasons seemed to have something to do with Lao Bai’s skill..
