Rorschach returned to the Seran Mansion. Soleana hadn't slept yet and was still reading in the study. As soon as Rorschach went up the stairs, Soleana said, "You're back late."

"I went out for a walk," Rorschach stood at the door of the study and greeted Soleana with a smile.

Snake came out of the secret room behind the bookshelf, looked at Rorschach, and asked, "How was Lord Swain's dinner?"

"What are you asking about?" Rorschach smiled as he looked at Snake.

Snake blushed when she saw Rorschach's smile, lowered her head, and said, "It's just that Lord Swain didn't talk to you, a talent from the City Hall?"

"He said a few words, but I think he must have a headache after listening to what I said, and he won't sleep well tonight."

"Oh? Then I'm very interested to hear what you said," Soleana became interested.

Snake also cast a curious look.

Rorschach took off his coat, loosened his collar, walked into the study, sat down and told everything that happened at the banquet.

Soliana and Snake frowned when they heard what Cecilia said, and then heard Rorschach's suggestion that a large group of people quarreled, and instantly their hair stood up again. The mother and daughter looked at Rorschach with a hint of imperceptible fear.

"That's what happened," Rorschach said, spreading his hands and waiting for the mother and daughter's reaction.

After a while, Soliana uttered three words from her mouth: "You are so cruel!"

Snake looked at her mother in confusion. She knew that the reform of the lord's fiefdom system that Rorschach mentioned would definitely weaken the power of their family, but she didn't say that Rorschach was cruel.

Rorschach smiled slightly and said, "The ruthless one should be Cecilia. She asked me to help her reform the municipal administration, improve the efficiency of the city hall and save expenses. I did it for her, and then what? The reward I got was to be used as a scapegoat. Believe it or not, once I step down as the director of this lousy publicity department, those masters with real power will tear me into pieces. '~"

Hearing this, the snake girl's face changed slightly. She thought that Rorschach would be retaliated and targeted, but she didn't think that Rorschach would be killed.

"So you want to provoke conflicts between the nobles and the civil service system?" Soleanna's face turned ugly.

"Do I need to choose?" Rorschach laughed and said, "You think too highly of me. The power structure of the empire is irrational. The nobles and the civil service system are inherently opposed. This contradiction will definitely erupt. It's just a matter of time."

"Is all this a revenge plan you came up with on the spur of the moment?" After listening for a long time, the snake girl finally understood what her mother meant by that sentence and looked at Rorschach in disbelief.

"No, I have been thinking about how to reform. This is just the result of my thinking." Rorschach certainly would not say that he thought of it on the spur of the moment, otherwise it would scare the snake girl to death.

"You are so scary. Your revenge is too strong," Soleanna's expression turned cold..

"I'm taking revenge?" Rorschach was so angry that he laughed, and his tone became sharp. He said, "I'm repaying evil with kindness. Who will benefit from the weakening of the nobles? Who will benefit from the conflict between the civil service system and the nobles? When the two sides fight, there will always be someone to mediate. Who is the beneficiary?"

"Madam, the reason you are angry is just because you think your family's power will be further weakened. After all, your family of Kao is also one of the top nobles, and the force field you stand on is always on your side," Rorschach said this with some sarcasm.

"The Trifarian Council?" Soleana's face turned ugly. After being pointed out by Rorschach, she was indeed a little radical. She stood on the perspective of her own family to accuse Rorschach.

"The power of the Trifaree Council will be further strengthened," Rorschach sneered, "Why do you think Darius extended an olive branch to me? He is the head of the military, but without Swain's acquiescence, would he dare to do so?"

"Actually, I am helping you too," Rorschach changed the subject and said to the mother and daughter, "There will definitely be some opportunities for the outbreak of contradictions. You can seize this opportunity and let yourself step to the front. This opportunity is rare. This opportunity is called public opinion supervision!"

"It's ridiculous that you still say that harshly. You and Cecilia are really good friends. You are all for the sake of interests, and there is no affection between you. I really forgot that you are also a noble, a woman who wants power," Rorschach shook his head disappointedly.

Having said this, Rorschach decided to strike another blow at this woman, so he said: "I finally understand why the Black Rose has been deeply involved in Noxus for two years, but can only hide behind the scenes to engage in conspiracy and intrigue. You are too short-sighted."

"For a person like Leblanc, she is still imitating Darius to extend an olive branch to me, and wants to use me to weaken Swain's strength. Even a fool can see that the real control of this empire is not the Trifarious Big Three, but Swain. He just lacks the title of emperor." Rorschach thought of the conversation between the woman and Maggie when he followed Leblanc in the evening and found it ridiculous.

After living for thousands of years, she still can't see the situation clearly. No wonder she can only hide in the dark to infiltrate and control some families to gain benefits for herself.

Sorriana's face became even uglier. She didn't expect Rorschach to attack her association so nakedly. But according to Rorschach, Leblanc's approach is indeed too naive.

"How can you say that?" Snake woman couldn't help but scold when she saw her mother's face was extremely ugly after being scolded by Rorschach.

Rorschach looked at Snake woman coldly and said, "Because I am cruel and ruthless!"

After saying that, Rorschach turned around and walked out of the study and returned to his room.

It was a good day today, but the trouble is that it would be a problem to live here any longer, after all, he had scolded Soleana to the point of crying.

Rorschach simply packed up his things, went downstairs directly (thank you Wang), and left Seran Mansion.

Soleana, standing in front of the study window, looked at Rorschach.Xia slowly disappeared from sight, tears falling like rain.

But it was indeed as Rorschach said, Swain stayed alone in the dark room, staring at the night sky in a trance.

Tonight he did meet an extremely smart person. Faced with his inevitable predicament, he did not choose to compromise or ask for help, but instead chose to fight to the death. With just a few words, he completely provoked the conflict between the nobles and the civil service system.

Although he was happy to see such a conflict, if he wanted to do it according to the method of the bard named Hugo, the pressure and risk he would have to bear would be too great.

But if it succeeded, it would definitely be good for his rule, and it could be said to be very good.

But can the words of a person whose past is ambiguous be trusted? What is his purpose? .
