Faced with Sharlayan's complaints, Kael'thas curled his lips indifferently: "I believe you have an old man in your family. Where did the young one come from?"

"If you want to have a baby, at least get me an elf girl!"

Sharlayan snorted with disdain: "You have the right to say this to me? What did you promise the old king's queen?"

"Uh~"

Noticing the embarrassment on Kael'thas' face, the barrage suddenly burst into joy.

[Come on, hurt each other! 】

[One thing to say, Sharlayan is only in his 20s this year. Even by human standards, he is still very young, so he can afford to wait, but Kael'thas...]

[Pfft~ Makes sense, I shot myself in the foot with a rock. 】

It's not that Kael'thas didn't want to marry the queen early and carry on the family line for the Sunstrider family.

Sharlayan also understood his concerns.

Now that Quel'Thalas is in a turbulent stage of social system reform, Kael'thas is not sure what criteria to use to choose a queen for a while.

According to the past conventions and customs, the queen should choose from among the daughters of the nobles, and after a series of selections, she will finally select a noble daughter who meets the standards and send her to the palace.

However, for well-known reasons, Kael'thas deliberately suppressed the traditional nobles, and he even had the bold idea of ​​choosing a commoner as queen.

This idea was just put forward tentatively, and it immediately aroused unanimous opposition from the ruling and opposition parties. Even many civilians themselves disagreed with this too advanced decision.

In desperation, Kael'thas could only adopt a compromise plan, intending to choose a suitable candidate from the lower nobles.

The Sun King's marriage still often triggers large-scale "discussions" in the noble circles. It is natural for the minor nobles to want to climb the olive branch of the royal family and achieve a class leap in one step.

As expected, the veteran nobles headed by the four nobles expressed firm opposition to this matter. After all, Kael'thas's proposal mainly violated their interests.

Under the long-term arguing between the two sides, Kael'thas, who was already a bit gentle, was still unable to make up his mind. This matter even attracted the attention of Anasterian, who had already retired to the deep palace to enjoy his old age.

"Hey~"

Mentioning his own marriage, Kael'thas felt a little frowning.

"After the father personally came forward to put pressure, the attitude of the big nobles finally relaxed. The small nobles took the opportunity to propose many candidates, but the cabinet has not come up with a list that can be recognized by all parties."

Sharlayan: "It's a farce, you should be tougher, and personally choose the most attractive and virtuous lady to be the queen."

"Forget it, don't talk about me."

Kael'thas waved his hand a little irritably: "What about you? Let me say it first, although Jaina is my apprentice, but from the standpoint of the king of the high elves, I still hope that you can marry a high elf Elf."

"I think Valeera is pretty good, my childhood sweetheart."

Sharlayan rolled his eyes on the spot: "Let me put it this way, the dominance of my marriage is not in my hands at all."

"My mother is still tossing back and forth between Valeera and Jaina. I don't know for sure how she will choose in the end."

Kael'thas jokingly suggested: "Why don't we just go together? A bowl of water must always be leveled."

"Don't talk nonsense, there is no such dual-wives system in Quel'Thalas."

Kael'thas spread his hands indifferently: "Quel'Thalas does not, but don't forget your other identity."

"Would the Dragon Clan take multiple partners so seriously?"

Sharlayan waved his hands in the same irritability: "Forget it, let my mother worry about it. Anyway, no matter who I marry, I will definitely not lose."

…

After hurting each other with Kael'thas, Sharlayan left the Sunstrider Court with a depressed mood.

Kael'thas, who stayed in the palace and continued to deal with official duties, also looked unhappy. Some royal servants thought that the Sun King and the Marquis of Deep Shadow had quarreled.

But when Kael'thas submitted the resolution on Sharlayan's title promotion to the cabinet for a vote the next day, the court servants immediately denied this outrageous speculation.

Where is the duke sent off right after the quarrel? If you have such bad friends, please give them a dozen more.

The resolution that Kael'thas submitted to the cabinet was just a formality.

When the results of the Battle of Estorante came back from the mainland of Kalimdor, all the cabinet officials realized that the duke position could not escape the palm of Sharlayan.

Sure enough, in the early morning of the next day, Sarlayan, who was exercising at home to maintain his fitness, received a knighthood promotion order jointly signed by the cabinet and the Sun King.

Starting today, the Marquis of Deep Shadow has been promoted to Duke of Deep Shadow, becoming the only duke in contemporary Quel'Thalas besides the four nobles.

To put it another way, Sharlayan is also the first high-ranking nobleman to be granted the title of duke for his merits since the end of the Troll War, and he is also a half-elf with impure blood.

No matter how hard-spoken commoners at the lower level belittle the nobles, if they have the chance to become nobles, they probably will do more than the nobles they say seem to be doing all kinds of evil.

Quel'Thalas has practiced the noble enfeoffment system for more than 7,000 years. This system has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it cannot be easily changed by Kael'thas in just a few years.

Those ordinary geniuses who are still working hard in major high-level colleges, if you ask them about their dreams now, becoming a noble is definitely the one with the most choices.

The half-elf marquis who had performed meritorious service was officially promoted to duke. Under Kael'thas's deliberate publicity, the news quickly spread throughout the entire Eversong Forest, and even Stratholme next door heard about it.

Sarlayan himself, as the person involved, did not feel any surprise about this, it was nothing more than that his territory had expanded a bit, and his status in the noble circle was higher.

money? Wealthy Marquis of Deep Shadow... Now it should be called the Duke of Deep Shadow. There is no shortage at all, it is just a number.

status? How many of the current Quel'Thalas nobles can beat Sharlayan? How many people are more trusted than him in the eyes of the king?

Hard power lies here, even if Sarlayan's title is not promoted, his influence in the noble circle has already been at the height of the sky, especially in the circle of meritorious nobles far away from the capital in the southern part of the forest.

The citizens of the Duchy of Deep Shadow held a grand celebration ceremony for the re-promotion of their lord's title. The Unicorn Town, which is about to be upgraded, was full of singing, dancing and bright lights for a week.

In order not to chill the hearts of these lovely lords, Sharlayan bit the bullet and attended the ceremony under the urging of his mother and confidante.

I don't know if Yin Nasi has learned something from what Kael'thas told her. She has been in a dilemma before, and she has completely let herself go recently.

Sometimes she chatted with the Sangunar couple at Valeera's house in the morning, and then teleported to Boralus in the afternoon to chat with Daelin, Catherine, and Priscilla.

Salayan didn't know what his mother was planning, and he didn't want to ask. He still had his own business to do.

After resting at home for a few days, Sharlayan, who couldn't sit still, decided to set off again, taking Lalas, who was already ready, to Northrend to take over his duties.

Onyxia just planned to go back to Wyrmrest Temple to tell her mother Sinestra about Nefarian's weird behavior.

Apart from Onyxia, Valeera, Stellagosa and others will stay in the territory.

Regarding the territorial expansion of the duchy, someone needs to communicate with Silvermoon City and the surrounding lords.

Yin Nasi has been busy with Salayan's marriage and research projects recently, so this task can only be handed over to Valeera and Stellagosa.

What? Julian?

Sharlayan said... just look for him, if I see him twice in Quel'Thalas within a week, I will lose.

…

"唰~"

Passing through the permanent portal connecting Silvermoon City and New Sandara, the three of Sharlayan moved from the Eversong Forest, which is like spring all the year round, to the Crystalsong Forest, which has a severe climate.

Of course, the so-called severe cold here is based on Eversong Forest.

The climate of Crystalsong Forest is pretty good in Northrend, at least much better than Icecrown Glacier and Storm Peak in the north.

After the initial pioneering period ~www.readwn.com~ the lord of Crystalsong Forest has changed once.

The original lord's title was promoted to one level, and because of his meritorious service, he was transferred back to the mainland of Quel'Thalas to enjoy the blessings and spend his old age peacefully.

It is said that this is his own choice.

Sharlayan was not familiar with the new lord named Haytham Morningstar. He only knew that he was a collateral branch of the Morningstar family among the four nobles, and one of the **** members of the royal party.

Haytham had already received the news that the Duke of Deep Shadow and the new Commander of the Ranger Troop of the North would be coming, and he personally led the senior officials of New Sandra City to wait outside the teleportation hall.

"Welcome the Duke of Deep Shadow to visit New Sandara City!"

The sudden sound startled Sarlayan, who was still standing still, and Onyxia rolled her eyes when she saw it, and took the opportunity to pretend that her feet were stirring garlic, and fell into Sarlayan's arms.

Lalas on the side immediately turned his dead fish eyes and complained: "Tsk! My friend, when did you become so popular?"

"Brothers as promised, let's go together, whoever leaves the order first is the dog? I'm so sour!"
