When she thought of the content of that order, Ms. Kinomi lowered her eyes to show her humility, "Although it is inappropriate for me to talk about myself in such a big way, this is something the Queen asked me to come here to convey. Apart from that, I
I come from Tianzhou and am a noble from a fox demon. Like all fox demons, I am always too curious, and the adventure took me to Avistan. And here, in your land, I met my
First and true love, politics. I've served as a diplomat in the courts of six different monarchs, but working for Her Majesty the Queen has been the most interesting. It's so fascinating to weave the web of intrigue and interest around jihad and the Wound of the World
." As he said this, one could see that Mizumi showed the same ecstatic feeling as Nie Niu when seeing interesting things.
If there is any big difference, it would be that Kinomitsu at least feels more elegant, probably.
"Really? It seems that there should be a lot of common topics. Many of my friends are also from Tianzhou." Lin Yun did not expect that he was actually a fox demon from the Tianchao side.
Although it is said that this dynasty is not that dynasty.
"Ah, maybe we have met before." Kizumi's eyes flashed slightly, and then she said with a faint smile.
"Then can you tell me, right now, what's the problem?" Lin Yun scratched his head, then sighed.
After all, these are basically necessary and cannot be completely eliminated.
Unless Lin Yun is free.
Speaking of which, this reminded Lin Yun of the Eagle Group of Branded Warriors, which were also typical mercenaries who became nobles.
"Yes, although I don't want to say this, Commander, not everyone in Neruzion is happy with your achievements. Some people think that, in their words, you are out of control, as if you are on one side.
The princes think of themselves. I wouldn't be surprised if you run into supply trouble soon. I would suggest that you appease their anger. Show the capital that you have not forgotten the relationship between superior and subordinate. For example
, hold a military parade in the name of the Queen." Returning to the slightly elegant look before, KinoMi said.
"Military parade?" Lin Yun frowned slightly, somewhat unresponsive.
Aren't military parades generally supposed to be used to warn surrounding hostile forces, appease people's hearts, and enhance domestic cohesion?
When will we be able to swear allegiance during military parades?
"You just did so well. You recaptured Cannabry, you won the Battle of the Bandwagon, and you became a major threat to the Worldwound.
Your prestige is increasing day by day, while the influence of the Queen's confidants is gradually declining. This gives people a feeling that only you can stand at the top of power. The members of the Royal Council are worried that you will use your strength to completely drive them out of the political arena."
He blinked slightly at Lin Yun, then spread his hands.
"After all, if you do too well, maybe Her Majesty the Queen won't need them so much? So they may try to belittle you, hinder your battles, and limit your results. Give in a little and let them know that you can and
You negotiated."
"Generally I understand." Lin Yun raised his eyebrows slightly.
To put it simply, this military parade was a little different from the military parade Lin Yun imagined.
This so-called military parade is a display of military power, but in fact, in the process, the queen is given the title of queen in the name of the queen, which in turn makes those who dislike Lin Yun not to be dismissed because of the queen's name.
Dare to act casually.
As for this so-called royal council, Lin Yun once heard Dai Lan talk about it.
In a sense, the Royal Council, which acts under the will of Her Majesty the Queen and is composed of the Queen's most outstanding and trusted servants, is the highest governing body of Montevi.
Parliament is responsible for handling the daily affairs of the country. It is the mouth and hands of the Queen.
Members of the Parliament come from all walks of life, some are nobles, and more are ordinary citizens. They have won a place in the Parliament with their intelligence.
Many are rich, but quite a few are not from wealthy families. Some are religious and very pious, such as the Grand Inquisitor Casori and the Crusader Herald Captain Jasper. Others are... more
Flexible, more ambitious people. But every one of them served Montivee loyally.
But obviously, there may be a question mark over these loyalties.
From Dai Lan's words, Lin Yun could roughly understand the composition of this council.
It's a bit similar to the parliament in ancient Rome. Sometimes the power of this thing is even higher than that of the king. Of course, it is very useful when the king is acting. After all, if there is any pot, just give it to this thing.
From a certain perspective, if these guys work together, they can even ignore the Queen and cause trouble for Lin Yun.
"Do you think how long it will take and how much it will cost to hold such an action?" Lin Yun touched his chin, squinted his eyes, and then said.
"This is inevitable. This will be a symbolic and affordable event to show how much you value the Queen. The Royal Council holds great power, and you do not want to turn these powerful people into enemies.
Compete with them. If you please them, they will no longer worry about your loyalty. You will be able to focus on your war." Kinomi sighed and then said.
"I understand, but unfortunately, I need to consult another consultant of mine." Lin Yun nodded slightly and then said.
"As far as I know, the Queen has not sent you any other advisers, may I ask?
Kizumi was almost blinded by the smelly and long title in front of him, but at the end of it, Kizumi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile, "Indeed, Earl Allendale is undoubtedly a
Noble Montevi, and as Her Majesty the Queen's cousin, the nobles are also willing to follow his advice, and after ensuring the support of the nobles, we will have a strong ally."
"D20 0."
"Then please go to the inn to take a rest first, please." As he said that, Lin Yun made a gesture of invitation.
"Okay." He nodded slightly, and then Mizumi left here gracefully.
"Are you planning to use Dailan as the reason for your refusal?" Comelia looked at Kizumi who was walking away and said in a low voice.
"Isn't this natural? Dailan's troubles don't happen in a day or two anyway." Lin Yun said with a strange smile.
Moreover, Lin Yun believed that Dai Lan would never have any good impressions of those in the Wang Family Council. When he heard that Lin Yun wanted to use his name to cause trouble, he might not have taken the lead directly in the charge.
"But, Commander, with all due respect, although this is not bad, in fact, even holding a military parade is not a problem. After all, this also proves that we are indeed loyal to the Queen and not just for ourselves." Ila on the side.
Bess hesitated and said with a little confusion.
As a law-abiding paladin, Irabes is obviously still a bit upright.
"Going back to the question I just asked, let's not talk about how much money it will cost us to buy those fancy things. Our current financial problem is already very difficult, and a very important point is that there are so many demons.
I don't mind, but if I show it during a military parade, those people might think I am a spy sent by the devil." Lin Yun shook his head slightly, and then said.
"Huh?" Irabes was stunned for a moment, because at this time, she also remembered that in the city of Zeze, except for the mercenaries, basically 80% of their troops were demons.
.
Even if it spreads to non-living things, the skeletons of undead creatures are almost as many as the entire army.
If it is displayed, it can easily cause misunderstanding.
"But if you delay like this, people will know about it sooner or later, right? You have basically become a star of the demons now, and those demons who have been marginalized by humans are rushing to get in." On this side, Comelia is also there.
Said with some worry.
"That's not a problem. As long as we stay a little hidden and don't give them a chance to cause trouble, it's fine. As long as we develop for a while, preferably if we can be self-sufficient, then it won't be a problem." Lin Yun shook his head slightly.
said.
"But Commander, if this happens, wouldn't we become an independent country? The people in the Royal Council probably won't allow it." Irabes also became worried.
"As long as I remain loyal to the queen, it won't be a problem." Lin Yun spread his hands and touched the ring.
That's the Queen's ring.
"Since you said that, okay, but speaking of which, Commander, I think you need to pay attention to one thing." Irabes sighed slightly and then said.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yun raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Soldiers get together in the cemetery to play cards all the time, and I usually turn a blind eye to this kind of thing. Although what they do is against the rules, as long as they don't cause too much trouble, we will let them play cards to their heart's content.
It's usually like this." Irabes said with some difficulty.
It's really embarrassing for a paladin like her to snitch.
"But lately, Anivea has noticed that Thorhill has joined them, and gambling seems to have had a less than healthy influence on him. As you know, Anivea and I usually don't interfere in other people's private affairs. Here's the story
With so many spies and cultists, Anivia has too much to keep busy. But Anivia knows that you are very close to him, so maybe you should do something. This is not an official report, just a friend of yours.
It's just a clue." Irabes smiled bitterly and touched her hair.
"Well, there seems to be no problem with a priest from Irene playing cards?" Lin Yun said, blinking.
"Well, okay, I'm rude." Irabeth also blinked, but she still said, "But I still hope that you will pay attention to the situation of Saucier, maybe it will be better."
"Okay, I'll pay attention." Lin Yun nodded slightly.
