The world is changing every second, and hiding weaknesses is the best disguise in the face of change.
The eldest prince and the third prince of the Kingdom of Mattia may not be unaware that the risk of the crown war may expand.
As those in power, they should also understand that their power comes from stability. Once the existing order fluctuates, their position will no longer be strong.
But they have no choice. In the game of political power, many times it seems that there are two paths, but in fact there is only one that can lead to it.
They would rather turn the issue of power inheritance into a war and turn themselves from chess players into pawns than to compromise with each other.
Because they represent not only themselves, but also their respective factions, even if they don't want to join the fight, their followers will push them to join the fight.
In this special stage, the royal power will be divided into lower levels. If you want a king recruitment order, you no longer need to look for the king and prince.
Their ministers will help them win over all the forces that take refuge in them, thereby ensuring that their own camp is in a superior position.
Therefore, the process of Brother Doko's search for the king's summons was not complicated.
He joined the Grand Prince's faction, and applied for a King's Summoning Order on the basis that his student, Bishop Cathy, had a good relationship with the Governor of Bree County and Huote City and was willing to support the Grand Prince.
In order to take care of the actions of the Life Church, he also specifically asked the king to issue a summons order to the entire County of Bree to ensure that all the nobles in Bree County who were committed to the king could exert their power.
Faced with such an unknown political position, most nobles will choose to wait and see, while a small number of ambitious people will choose to join.
When the Sky Church’s messenger bird carried the King’s summons and flew towards Bree County, the Life Church’s expansion opportunity also appeared.
Zhou Weide didn't know that the king's summons was so easy. At this moment, he was busy receiving the king's canonization envoy.
After a period of peaceful journey, the kingdom’s envoys finally arrived at Burni Port.
As soon as they arrived at Burni Port, they discovered the difference here. This is a city with excellent security. Even the capital of the kingdom is not so harmonious.
Groups of three life knights pass through various streets from time to time, and the prosperous port area is full of security booths.
When busy citizens saw the patrolling knights, they not only did not avoid them, but waved to say hello.
This is a city with a vague sense of hierarchy. Common people no longer fear managers, because they are all believers in the Church of Life, and the Lord of Life promises them equal love.
Five carriages hanging with the kingdom's emblems lined up, and the king's envoy tried his best to avoid disturbing the normal life of the local residents.
They did not want their reckless behavior to be understood as a provocation, thereby weakening the new lord's sense of identification with the kingdom.
"Sir, the situation hereSomething is not right. The gangs attached to the local nobles seem to have disappeared. ”
“Didn’t an urban civil war break out in Burnie Port some time ago? Maybe the new lord took the opportunity to clean up all the gang members. ”
“There are only a few people in Burnie Port. Nearly two thousand young people cleaned it up immediately. It seems that Mr. Wade is a person who strictly abides by the doctrine.” ”
“He is the bishop of the Church of Life. We cannot treat him with common sense. We should treat him with the concept of life doctrine.” "
Led by the Knights of Life, the messenger convoy entered the spacious and gorgeous Governor's Mansion.
Zhou Weide, Governor Bell, the local Bishop of the Sun Church, and Bishop Kaixi of the Sky Church, I have been waiting here for a long time.
Zhou Weide originally planned to greet the king's delegation. After all, they came all the way to hold the canonization ceremony for him.
But Governor Bell. After stopping his behavior, Governor Bell said that the best thing to do is to prepare exquisite tea and a sumptuous dinner.
"Vide, we need to give a nobleman enough rest time so that he can do his best. A good state appears before us.
Although your welcome is grand, you will also see their dusty side.
Please believe me, no noble wants to meet important guests when they get off the long-distance carriage. "
This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue reading.
"The dignity of a noble is right, I understand. ”
Due to Governor Bell’s suggestion, the welcoming group became the Knights of Life, and the Kingdom’s envoys also got time to clean up and rest.
After they have finished handling their personal affairs and sorted out their image, It's almost evening.
In order for the dinner to go smoothly, they also need to fill their stomachs with pastries in advance to ensure that they show their grace as much as possible during the dinner and not miss the food.
This kind of waiting made Zhou Weide almost numb, as if the main task of the envoys was to attend the dinner, rather than to contact him, the local lord.
"Bell, has the kingdom's administrative efficiency always been this way? "
"Vade, there is no problem with the efficiency of the kingdom. The real problem is your secretariat.
They are simply administrative machines, cold machines that deny all sense of ritual power. ”
After all, the people who descended from the dream city are different from the kingdom’s nobles. Neither of them can understand the administrative efficiency of the other.
Fortunately, the local nobles of Burni Port have been descended, making life The administrative management of the church is very unified.
When night falls, the dinner party with music, food and wine begins.
At this time, wait for a day. Zhou Weide finally met the Kingdom’s envoys.
“Hello, dear Sir, I wish our King is well and hope for today’s dinner.can satisfy you. ”
Although Sir Ferro’s title is not high, he is a servant of the king and a member of the king’s court think tank.
When he travels, he represents the majesty of the king. Therefore, Zhou Weide followed Governor Bell's teachings and expressed his personal respect first, and then expressed his condolences to the king to express his loyalty.
However, this very common honorific made Sir Ferro feel a little depressed.
< p> "May our King be well, Lord Vader. "Sir Ferro didn't have much feelings for Zhou Weide. What made him uncomfortable was the old king's physical condition. He was worried that when he returned to the royal capital, the crown would have a new owner.
Since Zhou Weide was very unfamiliar with the envoys and Sir Ferro was worried, Governor Bell took the initiative to liven up the atmosphere.
Thanks to his efforts, the dinner gradually became lively and Sir Ferro also relaxed. , and began to discuss the sealing matter with Zhou Weide.
"Your Excellency Weide, His Majesty the King's generosity to you has exceeded many people's expectations. You must also understand the political reasons for this.
But what I want to say is that no matter what the reason is for His Majesty the King to confer a title on you, his kindness and tolerance are undoubted blessings. ”
“Sir Ferro, I understand what you mean.
Whenever His Majesty the King needs me, I will carry the city guard as a lord and fight for His Majesty the King. "
"What if His Majesty the King needs you now? "
"Do we need to assemble the militia immediately? "
Zhou Weide's reply made Sir Ferro very satisfied, but Sir Ferro's question made Zhou Weide feel the tension of the situation in the royal capital.
"Your Excellency Wade, Bell The governor said that the knights in your hands are very good at fighting, and I hope you will remember today's promise.
Only His Majesty the King's summons can order you, and ignore any other orders. ”
“Don’t worry, as long as the king’s summons appears, our war group will be dispatched immediately. ”
