Melanis knew the inside story and didn't say anything.
As Roland's wife, she had a transcendent status and did not have to compete with the ministers.
She can be calm, but other ministers cannot be calm.
Without the World Tree Scepter, the wind chime would be basically the same level as them, but with a different division of labor.
A few ministers joining forces can deprive the Prime Minister of his power.
Under the premise that Roland paid little attention to mundane affairs, they had the capital to compete with the wind chimes.
But now it's different.
Roland granted Wind Chime the World Tree Scepter, and Wind Chime could even perform the emperor's duties during his absence.
She may not use her authority easily, but if a cabinet minister goes too far, she can kill him first and deal with him later.
She was no longer their equal, but their undisputed superior.
Woma was stunned for a long time, then coughed and reminded softly: "Your Majesty, the World Tree Scepter is your exclusive weapon. Its combat power has been greatly improved, so it is more appropriate for you to carry it."
What he said was impeccable, he didn't mention the wind chimes at all, he was just concerned about Roland's safety.
Security and intelligence are his areas of responsibility, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Roland glanced at Woma casually, which made the descendant of the giant race feel that his whole body was being seen through. He could only wait for Roland to express his position without daring to speak anymore.
"Woma, thank you for your concern, but I must put down the World Tree scepter. This scepter will help me in the short term, but it will be my shackles in the long term."
"Everyone, you are all my most trusted ministers. We have the same goal, and we need to work together on the road to the integration of new humanity. Please also put down the World Tree scepter in your heart and fully support Feng Chime."
When it comes to this, the ministers can only accept it.
No matter what I think in my heart, I have to shout "His Majesty is wise" on the outside.
Sandra, who had been silent all this time, took half a step forward and was about to say something, but was blocked by Fandel who was standing next to her.
Fandel looked back at her, shook his head slowly, and silently reminded:
"Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity. His Majesty's decision cannot be questioned. We will discuss it with Feng Chi in private."
Chapter 157 Give him a surprise
Important meetings are always brief.
After announcing the appointment and awarding the scepter, Roland said a few words briefly, encouraging everyone to strive for the common goal.
He specifically emphasized that the new country will gradually grow stronger in the future, and should not always focus on the petty gains in front of us.
"You must unite!"
"The wind chime's decision is my decision while I'm away."
After making his concluding remarks, he left the ministers who were looking at each other in disbelief.
Some people, like Groggs, were ecstatic about sharing power this time.
The dwarfs have always lived a wandering life, and now live on the edge of the Gondwana Empire with no political status.Their brother group, the dwarves, can only earn a living by mining in the small countries around the empire.
Roland privately promised him that the dwarfs and dwarves would have equal political status with the humans, and this appointment was a fulfillment of that promise.
The Barony of Münhausen covers a much larger area than an ordinary province. Roland assigned the territory near the Western Mountains to Groggs and gave him the title of Mechanical Knight.
This is no ordinary knighthood. The only people who have received title knights before are Melanith, Granny and Agnes.
Groggs is an experienced man and understands that this is Roland giving him face, and he will not fail to appreciate it.
All Roland's decisions are correct, and all Roland's requirements must be fulfilled.
He thought silently in his heart.
Although he does not understand the appointment of Feng Chime as prime minister, he will still fully support it.
This is not something he should worry about.
What he has to do is to gradually transfer the dwarfs and dwarves over safely.
At least the clan members close to him should be transferred.
The new empire planned by His Majesty Roland is very big, and there is enough space for them.
The World Tree Defense War saved the World Tree, but could not protect the forests in other directions.
The Super Timbersaw is truly terrifying. Wherever it goes, trees fall down like weeds and are unstoppable.
There are not many forests in the western region, and there are even fewer forests left after being harvested by loggers.
The hard work of harvesting machines has made the difficulty of reclaiming land here much lower, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.
Thinking of the vast territory and rolling giant mountains in the western region, the old dwarf was in a good mood.
Maybe in the eyes of humans this is a deserted land, but in the eyes of dwarfs and goblins this is paradise.
He had explored the terrain here and firmly believed that there must be rich minerals under such a huge mountain range.
After all, this was once the territory of the City of Ten Thousand Races, so it couldn't be too barren.
Other wasteland can be used to build cities and build roads.
agriculture?He has no plans for this yet.
Although the World Tree has begun to feed back, it will take a long time for the barren land in the west to be turned into fertile land, and the dwarf tribe does not have a farming tradition.
It's not that they are lazy, it's that they are not suitable.
The most suitable crop to grow on this land is corn.
Just think about the huge height difference between corn and dwarfs, and you will know how wise it is to let dwarfs grow corn.
Anyway, we are all subjects of His Majesty Roland. As long as the mining is successful, we can use it to exchange money to buy food.
The dwarfs can eat bread, and the dwarf brothers also have enough wheat and sorghum to make wine. This is great.
Groggs vaguely felt that Roland must have a deep meaning in allocating the western region to them.
I guess I don’t want them to be self-sufficient in everything.
He silently dismissed the immature one, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with Roland's actions.
The best king is one who is aloof but does not have much sense of presence, allowing his subordinates to maintain a delicate balance.
In his opinion, Roland's power distribution was much better than those emperors who claimed to be wise emperors.
Give full autonomy but firmly control your subordinates.
He is worthy of being a great monarch who can repel the goblin red tide!
Groggs kept sketching out the image of the Mingjun Holy Lord, but he didn't know that Roland was just too lazy to care about so many things.
Let Roland sit on the throne and listen to his subordinates' work reports every day. He would rather not be the king.
Roland simply and rudely distributed the power and territory in the most appropriate way, and then made Feng Chime, who was best at balancing, serve as Prime Minister, and at the same time granted Feng Chime the power equivalent to the deputy emperor.
He didn't bother to care about what happened after that.
With him around, the sky cannot be turned.
As long as he acts within the framework, he is willing to believe everyone.
Unlike Groggs, there was some loss within the Druids.
Although Roland respected Famas as the national master, the great druids were not stupid. They knew that this was a false respect, and that the status was of no use.
Archdruid Luit, who truly represented the Brotherhood, was not appointed Prime Minister.
Ruit himself had no objections. He also felt that the wind chime was more suitable than him, but the other brothers in the fraternity were a little bit unsatisfied.
They were talking behind Ruit's back, and they all hoped that the power and honor of the Prime Minister should belong to the Brotherhood.
Egilina, Melanie and Granny did not enter the cabinet.
Egilina belongs to the stargazing club and has little interest in politics. Roland respects her decision after having a confidential discussion with her.
She will help Roland as a senior advisor and will not participate in the political factional fighting in the New Kingdom.
Roland appointed her as a temporary cabinet minister.
There is no specific division of labor, she only enjoys rank and treatment. If some cabinet ministers are unable to perform their duties for some reason, she can take over at any time.
Melanie and Granny never participated in politics, and they didn't want to be given false titles.
Another major force in the cabinet is the elves.
But the elves are not monolithic. If Fandel hadn't stopped her, Sandra would have stood up and questioned Roland's decision.
After the meeting ended, everyone dispersed. Sandra left without looking at the wind chime. Just when she was about to return to her residence, Fandel hurriedly caught up with her.
"General, you are walking too fast."
"You were too slow, is something wrong?"
Sandra opened the door, invited Fandel into the study, and asked calmly.
Before, she had a close relationship with Feng Chime and had a mediocre relationship with Fander. However, after Roland came to the throne, Feng Ling became the chief minister, and her relationship with Feng Ling also became much weaker. Instead, she had a close relationship with Fander.
After today, Feng Chime became Roland's spokesperson, and there was a tragically thick barrier between them.
Sandra's attitude was indifferent, but Fandel was not annoyed at all. He just sat down opposite him, poured himself a cup of tea, and asked with a smile:
"What do you want to tell His Majesty today?"
"I want to remind your Majesty that using nepotism is the beginning of the country's downfall."
Fandel spat out a mouthful of tea, his old face turned red from choking, and it took him a long time to say, "General, are you really going to say that?"
"I certainly won't say it so harshly, but I will remind His Majesty."
Fandel muttered in his heart, no matter how nice it sounds, there is no difference in essence.
What's more, Sandra's character doesn't seem to be relenting.
He put down the tea cup and said softly: "Sandra, what are your plans next?"
"I am the general of Luojia Kingdom. After the war is over, of course I will return to Luojia."
Fandel stared at Sandra, confirmed that she was not joking, and then said with hatred:
"What you do is very disrespectful to Your Majesty. Do you think it is appropriate?"
"His Majesty's trust in you has not diminished at all. He appointed you as the chief general and asked you to manage the country's military affairs, but you want to return to Luojia. It is simply unreasonable."
Fandel was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Sandra didn't speak, just turned her head to the side.
"If you or Ruit become prime minister, I will never have a problem with it, but why the wind chimes?"
Sandra bit her lip, frowned, and whispered: "This is not a dispute of tempers, I am worried about the future of the country."
"I understand, that's why I stopped you. If you had just stood up and refuted, the entire elves would have become a joke in the eyes of others."
Fandel said earnestly: "Sandra, your prestige is better than the wind chimes. This is a fact. Your Majesty must know it. But after all, we did something wrong when His Majesty inherited it."
"The Well of Life is resurrected and the World Tree is reborn. Even according to the custom, the high priest should become the chief minister. This is the tradition of our family. Your Majesty respects the tradition."
"Looking further into the future, His Majesty's willingness to use wind chimes as Prime Minister shows that he has not forgotten the identity of King Luojia and does not intend to downplay the existence of our clan. The future of the country is closely related to the future of our clan."
Sandra fell silent.
Fandel was right, they made mistakes.
Even if they made no mistake, according to convention, Feng Chime should be the prime minister.
As long as Feng Chi doesn't stand on the wrong team or does the wrong thing, they won't stand a chance.
She showed a relieved smile and said with a smile: "Speaker, you are right, I am narrow-minded. Your Majesty loves me so much, I can't let him down. As Feng Ling becomes Prime Minister, we can't fall behind."
"That's good if you think so. I still have some doubts about the construction of the legal system, and I just want to ask you for advice. By the way, you can just call me Justice from now on."
"You're welcome, Judge. I happen to have some issues to discuss with you."
With a smile on her face, Sandra calmly made an invitation gesture.
Fandel is right. If you put aside the fact that Fengchi is the de facto prime minister, she and Fandel are members of the cabinet and the top ministers in their respective fields. They are already very important.
After all, Roland is a human race. He can use elves like them so much, so he can't expect more.
