As the power of the old nobles gradually declined, the internal disputes in Quel'Thalas gradually stabilized.
But as long as Darkan is alive, this protracted internal struggle will not really end.
This old fox pretends to be a retired man drinking tea and reading newspapers all day long, but Kael'thas, who comes into contact with him every day, can see the turmoil in this guy's heart.
When Kael'thas first came to power, Dar'Kan did consider taking advantage of the new king's unstable foundation to take action.
It's a pity that the old king laid a solid foundation before retiring, so Darkan didn't find a chance to take action.
In addition, the new king is not just a rhetorical theoretician. Not only is he calm and pragmatic, he is also surrounded by a group of capable ministers and officials, and there is also a brat with vicious eyes outside who controls the overall situation.
It is undoubtedly a foolish dream to rely solely on the old nobles who have long since declined to tear up the increasingly stable royal power.
Without a chance to take action, Darkan could only continue to lie dormant.
Both Kael'thas and Sharlayan knew that he had not given up on his inner ambitions.
He is like a hyena hiding in the dark, always watching every move of his prey, and will start hunting without hesitation once he discovers a flaw.
With such an insidious guy watching from the side, some information involving the deep secrets of Azeroth cannot be explained clearly in front of the Silver Moon Council.
After all, Dar'Khan is just an expert in internal fighting trapped in a corner of Quel'Thalas, and his understanding of the world situation is very weak.
Regardless of internal fighting or external war, Sarlayan always believes that intelligence is the most important link.
With the backlight blades scattered around the world providing information, Kael'thas can open his eyes to see the world at any time.
Darkan should also have a secret organization responsible for intelligence collection, but in order to avoid being discovered by the Backlight Blade, he certainly does not dare to go too far. At most, he can only install some confidants in the country, but he is beyond the reach of the outside world.
Sarlayan doesn't want to broaden Darkan's horizons, so this guy should just let him squat at home and be a mountain eagle.
For people like Dar'Khan, the wider their horizons, the greater their ambitions. If he colludes with some external forces that are dissatisfied with Quel'Thalas, that will really cause trouble.
In view of this, even though Kael'thas had long been itchy about Sharlayan's bizarre adventures, he still patiently waited until they had a private conversation before asking.
When Sharlayan first met Kael'thas, the prince who was forced to "exile" Dalaran was at the lowest point in his life.
The raging political struggle in the country frightened Anastria, and she had to send the only heir to the throne abroad to avoid the limelight.
However, Kael'thas' life in Dalaran was not going well. His status as crown prince meant that it was impossible for the Kirin Tor Council to entrust him with important internal affairs of Dalaran.
If it were just that, it would be fine. By personally handling the non-important matters that were on the sidelines, Kael'thas could also gain some experience in governing Quel'Thalas in the future.
However, under the oppression of the great humanists led by Modera, Kael'thas, the nominal Kirin Tor councilor, was almost completely ignored.
With Sharlayan's help, Kael'thas finally managed to breathe a sigh of relief before leaving Dalaran and returning home.
Since Kael'thas has ascended the throne and finally eased the relationship with Quel'Thalas, Antonidas will not let irrelevant people damage the cooperation between the two countries again.
Therefore, Modera has still not been able to recover, and Antonidas has kept her in her own mage tower busy doing research.
The icing on the cake is not as good as providing help in times of need. Sharlayan helped Kael'thas in the most difficult time. After several years of cooperation, the personal relationship between the two became deeper and deeper.
What's even more coincidental is that the two of them have a very similar understanding of Quel'Thalas' future development plan, adding an aura of like-mindedness to their good personal relationship.
Just as Darkan thought, Sarlayan's Holy Family is now in full swing, and there will be no signs of decline for a while.
Since this team cannot be dismantled, Darkan can only take advantage of the situation and propose that Sarlayan only obey the royal family's orders.
To put it bluntly, he is an imperial envoy with royal privileges.
As for how much authority the imperial envoy can get, it depends on the degree of trust Kael'thas has in Sarlayan.
The Department of General Affairs is an agency in Quel'Thalas that specializes in appointing officials at all levels, and is under the jurisdiction of Silvermoon Councilor Solanlian.
In barrage terms, the General Affairs Department is equivalent to the staff department in ancient times in another world that specializes in the appointment and dismissal of officials. It is one of the six departments with a high status, and it is also the head of the six departments.
Sharlayan knew that even if he didn't want to, in order to strengthen Quel'Thalas, he would sooner or later get involved in the domestic political situation.
In this case, it is necessary to prepare in advance.
He specifically asked Danmaku to learn about the so-called six functions of the different world.
The six departments mentioned in the barrage are the Ministry of Personnel, which is in charge of the appointment of officials, the Ministry of Households, which is in charge of finance and food and other resource allocation, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs and Household Registration, the Ministry of Rites, which is responsible for etiquette publicity and cultural and educational undertakings, the Ministry of Punishment, which is responsible for one-stop punishment, and the Ministry of Justice, which is responsible for military affairs.
The Ministry of War, and finally the Ministry of Works, which is in charge of various engineering projects across the country.
According to the "modern people's" perspective mentioned by Danmu, the distribution of powers among the six departments is not clear enough. In many cases, it is a matter of eyebrows and beards. It is inevitable that there will be overlapping powers.
Quel'Thalas also faces the problem of unclear official duties and overlapping powers, which are historical problems created during the Dath'Remar period.
To put it bluntly, it was his method of dividing the cake.
Dath'Remar only wanted everyone to sit in a row and eat fruit, but he left a lot of trouble for his descendants.
Sarlayan is not denigrating Dath'Remar's achievements, but everything must be viewed from multiple angles.
It is true that Dath'Remar led the high elves to travel thousands of miles eastward and used the water from the Well of Eternity to create the Sunwell, which laid the foundation of Quel'Thalas in one fell swoop. No one can cover up his contribution.
But this does not mean that Dath'Remar is the almighty and perfect person boasted by the old nobles.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is no love without reason in the world. The reason why the old nobles boasted about Dath'Rema was because he harmed his own royal power and gave the power to those who followed him to conquer the world.
old brothers.
When Dath'Remar was still there, with his strong personality and great achievements, those grateful nobles would naturally not stand up to him.
Unfortunately, not every Sun King can get the full support of the nobles.
In the early days of the founding of the nation, Quel'Thalas was busy dealing with the crazy attacks of forest trolls, and all nobles were providing full support for this protracted Patriotic War.
However, as the talented and talented Taranus Windrunner founded the Ranger Force and drove the trolls out of the northern part of Eversong Forest step by step, the nobles of Silvermoon City who gradually stabilized finally began to enjoy life with peace of mind.
From then on, these founding nobles lost their sense of worry and began to degenerate rapidly, even daring to confront the Sun King.
These historical problems caused by Dath'Rema were exposed at the beginning of Anasteria's taking office.
Sarlayan returned home this time with the intention of persuading Kael'thas to reorganize his administration and reorganize the distribution of powers among various departments to avoid any further overlapping of powers.
After listening to a series of adventure stories told by Sharlayan, Kael'thas could not return to his senses for a long time.
"Pandaria... I didn't expect that Azeroth would have such a continent hidden in the fog."
Kael'thas said with some emotion: "Now I finally know where those pandaren who like to travel come from."
After calming down, Kael'thas asked solemnly: "So, Loken and his steel army are not the orthodox Titan Guardians, but a group of rebels who have abandoned their duties?"
Sarlayan nodded: "You can say that."
"I have already won over Azadas, the orthodox guardian. In the next few years, members of the Backlight Blade headed by Atla will sneak into the Storm Cliffs and try to contact another guardian Thorim.
.”
"Hey~"
Kael'thas smiled bitterly and rubbed his brows: "The outside world is so wonderful, but I am trapped in a country where there is endless internal fighting and I can't fight. It's really frustrating."
Sarlayan comforted softly: "Sooner or later, the chaos in the country will subside. In order to fight against foreign aggression, we must first calm down the domestic situation."
"In the next few years, I will stay in the country to assist His Majesty and strive to complete the reforms we have planned as soon as possible so that Quel'Thalas can regain its vitality."
Kael'thas nodded with a heavy expression: "There is still a long way to go, but with your help, I can finally feel a little more relaxed."
"By the way, I have already told Solanlian to have the General Affairs Department customize a special official position for you. You should be able to see the result in a few days."
"In your free time these days, you should go home and take care of the territory affairs and family affairs. I will still have many things that need your help."
