Shaman from Afar
Vol 6 Chapter 167: Empire Storm
"This is by no means Loren Turin's plan."
After carefully reading the letterhead that Connold had delivered to his own hands, Metner Leopold, Minister of the Seal of the Seal, was very convinced.
The words fell, and Connor and Fitrona in the lobby of the Yuqian cabinet showed their expressions at the same time.
The indifferent Metternich put down the letterhead, and the old man with white beards folded his hands and stood motionless. It was not like the old man who was almost 80 years old.
In the empty cabinet hall, there were only three shadows alone under the fluorite chandelier.
Unlike Eckhardt II, Connor never deliberately concealed his thoughts from his courtiers; he never acted like a dead father, but was tough and extreme, and once determined, he would not Will change.
But it is for this reason that Connor, who has been in power for less than half a year, already has a strong dissatisfaction with the parliament that is keen on the virtual and the snake; the feeling that is completely opposite to the order in the military barracks makes him immersed in anger all the time Among.
Even the "smallest cabinet of all dynasties" left by Emperor Eckhart, Connor truly trusted only the Minister of the Seal, Metternich Leopold, and the Minister of the Military, Severin de Salion;
The latter is a royal lineup, a more experienced army commander than him; the former has been in politics for many years, and without Metternich, Connord could not have controlled the imperial cabinet and even the parliament alone.
Therefore, when Fitronai sent the information that the night watchman brought back from Byrne, Connor only summoned the head of the imperial cabinet.
"why?"
After glancing at Connor, who had a dull complexion, Fitlonay asked the question first.
"Because we know the Duke Byrne, it is impossible to make such a" political compromise "like the move, Her Royal Highness Princess."
Metternich ’s expression was indifferent, and his tone was very confident: “If you have known this person in depth, you will understand how arrogant he is; he carefully hides his thoughts, but he ca n’t hide the kind of surrender that ca n’t really bow his head. Arrogance. "
"Therefore, Loren Turin can exchange interests with you, the Sky Vault and even anyone, make some insignificant concessions if necessary, and even sacrifice some of his own interests in the overall situation, but ..."
"The negotiations between the two parties must be equal!"
Speaking of which, Minister Zhang Xi's eyes became sharper.
With a low hum, Connor looked at the ceiling with a solemn expression; while Fitlonay, who was still confused, nodded after a moment of silence.
Because it is.
Not to mention that he is now the premier prince of the empire. Even when he was an ordinary wizard in Ebden, this guy dared to negotiate with the night watchman, Brandon and even the wizard tower.
"So I'm sure this is by no means a plan that Loren Turin can come up with-at least, it's not his real idea." Metternemer said silently:
"Such smooth and very traditional means, it is more like a real aristocrat-neither humble nor humble. While humbly yielding, he very sincerely proposed joint proposals and showed his majesty and heavenly palace."
"This letter is not so much as the Duke of Byrne, but it is more like Byrner ... or the idea of the Turin family."
"Turin family?" The thoughtful princess blinked: "Charlotte?"
"According to the consistent strength and wrist of the Countess of the Red Blood Castle, this is possible."
Minister Palm Seal nodded slightly, affirming her thoughts.
The two silently turned their eyes to Connor, waiting for the emperor's reply to his courtier.
I saw him put his chin down a little, and his expression was still so cold.
"No humbleness, humility, sincerity, and showing goodness." Connold sneered. "An imperial courtier, half-strongly brought a royal side to his own territory, and then announced her marriage in this way, Still with a wizard ... "
"Master Metternich, do you use these words to describe his near-robber-like behavior? What do you want the people in the church to think of me, and where do you put the royal dignity?"
Faced with Connor's scorching eyes, Metternich did not respond much, and even breathed a sigh of relief.
The initiative to raise the question proves that he really wants to solve the problem-those who will oppose this matter don't have to think about it, it must be the royal family and the church of Desalion, and their wording will only be better than that of Connord. The words are tougher and the reaction more intense.
Therefore, as Minister of the Seal of the Seals, Metternich must prove to His Majesty that he has the ability to appease the two groups and the qualification to continue to serve as the head of the cabinet.
Sighing slightly, the old man with low eyebrows and smooth eyes was still so calm.
"Your Majesty, I think the view of the church in front of you is irrelevant; because in any case, since Bain dare to send this letter, it proves that they can persuade the Bain church to preside over the wedding." Metternich said in a deep voice:
"In other words, this will only eventually become a contradiction between the Church of the Holy Cross and the Church of Byron ... I am afraid that they will still come over to beg Your Majesty's support, why should they care about their ideas?"
Fitrona's eyes lit up, and Connor just nodded slightly, motioning the old man to continue.
"So the most difficult thing is to persuade the interior of the royal family to accept this result ..." Metternich gave a slight meal, because this involved the emperor's housework. He did not know whether an outsider reached out and interfered.
But Connor clearly does not care about these: "I don't need to consider the internal issues of DeSalle's family-I will write a letter to Uncle Severin to explain clearly about Lena's marriage and the relationship between Bain."
With a look in Metternich's eyes, the most difficult part was solved.
Then came Connor's most concerned part, the views of the empire.
As we all know, the status of the wizard in the Sacrament Empire will change according to different regions, but it is generally excluded and discriminated; especially the traditional Saqran nobles, the wizard is regarded as a hidden danger.
But in the eyes of Metternich, this is the most insignificant part-to think that this kind of thing can be guided and influenced, as long as the propaganda is in place, to ensure that most people's ideas, very few "disagreeing groups" Not worth mentioning at all.
Young people ... no matter how they hide it, they still care about what others think of themselves.
Looking secretly at Connold and Fitrona, the minister of the seal of the seal sighed.
"Your Majesty, and Her Royal Highness Princess, both of you must know that when something is done, there will be some benefit, and there will be some loss." Metternich said softly: "So we only need to ensure the loss and The balance between the benefits is enough. "
"It is indeed a terrifying thing to marry a royal next to a sorcerer, but it is not so terrible-the group of sorcerers was a group of fugitives who had just been pardoned when His Majesty Eckhart I was in power. Pagan; when the "sage" Brandon I took the throne, he became a "loyal" empire. "
"Wait until your father, His Majesty Eckhart II, another wizard becomes a member of the cabinet, and the other becomes the governor of Ebden."
"It can be seen that in the fourteenth generation of the Empire, the status of the wizards has gradually increased; this is not a great compassion of your majesty or the tolerance of the church, but a kind of almost regular change."
Metternich explained patiently: "It may be shocking to marry a royal family to a wizard, but it is not so much if it is compared with making the wizard a member of the royal front cabinet or appearing in the royal sword knight group alongside the dukes. Shocking. "
Hearing this remark, Fitronai turned her gaze to Connold behind her.
"What's more, the loss of prestige can be compensated elsewhere." Metternich also looked up at Connold, and whispered: "Once this news spreads, the wizards in the empire will surely rejoice and swear to death Loyalty to Your Majesty! "
"Compared with hundreds of thousands of donations and even wizards who joined the army, some rumours can be counted as nothing-if your majesty is correct, I can order the city defense army in the imperial capital to patrol around, and anyone who dares to defame the royal family. Snatch, behead! "
The voice fell, and the old man's already gray eyebrows showed a bit fierce.
Fitronai looked slightly, and this was the first time she saw this gentle gentle minister of the palm seal, showing such a fierce face.
"Beheading ... just talking, will it be too ..."
"His Royal Highness Princess, do you know your brother, the late Emperor Eckhart ... how did you deal with the heresy of the evil **** in Elmans?"
Mettner, who did not blink, interrupted sharply.
Fitronai, who pressed her lips tightly, said nothing.
"The Wirz family in Elleman is loyal to the royal family. In history, Elleman was also the first country to swear allegiance to the empire ... But even so, Emperor Eckhardt remained unrelenting; sometimes in order to catch a heresy , The whole village must be burned to death, chickens and dogs will not stay! "
"Even so, the Wiltz family has never complained." The old man's voice became heavy: "Because they know that the more fierce the empire's means, the more they prove that the royal family attaches great importance to Elleman."
Fitronai frowned, turning her head away.
Metternich did not care, turning his attention to Connold: "It is a full-scale state of war against the Azores, Empire ... Especially your authority, Your Majesty, must not be subject to any damage or influence; anything different Voices, negative or deliberate actions, must be severely suppressed. "
"The more decisive, the more fierce, the more kind and loving you are under the rule of your people; it is precisely because of this that the Yuqian Cabinet has supported you and His Highness Brandon's counterinsurgency against East Sacran. "
The last sentence of the Minister of the Seal, is the final statement-as long as it is to maintain the authority of the empire and is beneficial to the war of the Azores, at least part of the nobles of the imperial capital absolutely support it.
Although they are keen on infighting, they at least know where their privileges come from; if the sky dome and the emperor lose their due authority and become no longer important, they as "empire nobles" will Equal to the country's nobles in any Principality.
Compared with such a tragic ending, a little concession and a few "poor relatives in the East Sakland to the countryside" are simply not worth mentioning.
Facing the indifferent but decisive old man, Connold looked down and stared at him with the same expression:
"Are you sure?"
"No, but ..." Metternich was very calm: "If it is not possible at the end, I can take responsibility for you-cut my head and change a new minister of the seal, you can calm the nobles. anger."
Obviously, although Cheng Zhu was in the chest, he was also prepared for the worst.
"If you die, who has the power to control the cabinet?" Connor looked at him like a sword, looking at the old man with his eyes: "Is there a suitable person in your heart?"
"Have."
Metternich admitted generously.
"Who?"
"I can't tell you-because this is the worst result for you or for him." Metternich shook his head: "You won't believe in the loyalty of the person I recommend, and even if he is suspected, he can't do his best. Is at your service. "
"In charge of the imperial cabinet, it must be a person whom the emperor absolutely trusts; Your Majesty, like your father and successive emperors, you must choose the one who is both capable and loyal."
"Having both ability and loyalty ... it's easy to say." Connold sneered.
"If you really have no choice, then a minister who is absolutely loyal to you, or must be loyal to you, is a choice." The old man Bi Gong said with respect:
"People who hold the authority of the emperor are more stupid than loyal."
Fitroney sneered, apparently not convinced by this "loyal speech".
Connold looked indifferently at the indifferent old man, his amused expression as if he was making up his mind.
The next second, he stood up suddenly and stood in front of Metternich.
My heart string is tight, and my proud face doesn't change color ~ www.readwn.com ~ I will never let anyone take the responsibility for me-it is the emperor's responsibility to bear the good and evil of the empire! "Connolly said:
"The Order of the Life Order of the Principality of Byrne, Isaac Grantham and Lena de Salleon, I promise! But ..."
"Imperial royal family ... even if it is only a side branch, it cannot be married to a civilian; so from today on, Isaac Grantham is officially enshrined as an imperial knight, and his surname is included in the imperial lineage, and he is allowed to have heraldry!
The expressions of Metternich and Fitrone are startled at the same time, and I never expected Connor to do this.
If Loren Turin's "Emperor Viscount" was originally obtained from Brandon's wizard advisor, it was only the level of honorary title, and the title of Isaac Grantham's Imperial Knight was officially included in this person. Into the lineage of the imperial nobility!
This is equivalent to lifting the last shackles of the wizards, allowing the wizards to have noble titles!
"Now that we have made up our minds, we will simply do it to the end and let the empire understand the attitude of their emperor!"
