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 Coming from Tianzhou, I 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 loves, politics. I have served as a diplomat in the courts of six different monarchs, but working for Her Majesty the Queen has been the most interesting. It is so fascinating to weave the web of intrigue and interest around jihad and the Wound of the World ." As he spoke, Mizumi could be seen showing the same ecstatic feeling as Nie Niu when seeing interesting things.
If there is any big difference, it is that Mu Zhimin 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, are there any problems?" 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 at all if you run into supply trouble soon. I would advise you to appease their anger. Show the capital that you have not forgotten the relationship between superior and subordinate. E.g. , hold a military parade in the name of the Queen." Returning to the slightly elegant look before, Kinoshima said.
"Military parade?" Lin Yun frowned slightly, somewhat unresponsive.
Aren't military parades generally supposed to be used to warn surrounding hostile forces, while at the same time appeasing people's hearts and enhancing domestic cohesion?
When will we be able to swear allegiance during military parades?
"You just did so well. You retaken Cannabry, you won the Battle of the Sea, and you became a major threat to the Worldwound.
.
. Your authority grows, while the influence of the Queen's confidants wanes. This gives people a feeling that only you can stand at the top of power and dominate. Members of the Royal Council are worried that you will use your strength to completely drive them out of the political arena. "Kizumi blinked slightly at Lin Yun, and 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 make peace with them. You negotiated.”
"Generally I understand." Lin Yun raised his eyebrows slightly.
To put it simply, this military parade was a little different from the one Lin Yun imagined.
This so-called military parade is one aspect of displaying military strength, 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 dissatisfied because of the queen's name. Dare to act casually.
As for the 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 best and most 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 wealthy people, but quite a few of them are not from wealthy families. Some are religious and devout, such as Grand Inquisitor Casori and 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 kind of parliament in ancient Rome. Sometimes the power of this thing is even higher than that of the king. Of course, when the king is in control, it is very useful. 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 operation?" 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 will 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?
.
. "Mu Zhishi said with some doubts.
"Why not? That was personally ordered by Her Majesty the Queen, Attaché and Plenipotentiary Advisor, Lord Earl Dailan." Lin Yun said with an interested expression, and then said with a smile.
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 a cousin of Her Majesty the Queen, the nobles are willing to follow his advice, and after ensuring the support of the nobles, we have a strong ally."
"D20+9=20."
"Then please go to the inn to have 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 rejection?" Comelia looked at Mizumi who was walking away and said in a low voice.
"Isn't this natural? Anyway, Dailan's troubles don't happen in a day or two." Lin Yun said with a weird 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 get 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 their current city, except for mercenaries, basically 80% of their troops are demons. .
Even if it spreads to non-biological aspects, the skeletons of undead creatures are almost as many as the entire army.
.
.
If displayed, it could easily lead to 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 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.
"The First Cause of All Realms"
"What's wrong?" Lin Yun raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Soldiers got together in the cemetery to play cards all the time, and I usually turned a blind eye to that kind of thing. Even though what they were doing was against the rules, we let them play cards as long as they didn't cause too much trouble.
.
. This is usually the case. "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 be having a less than healthy effect on him. As you know, Anivea and I don't usually 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 close to him, so maybe you should do something. This is not an official report, just your friend doing it for you It's just a clue." Irabes smiled bitterly and touched her hair.
"Well, there doesn't seem to be any 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 you pay attention to Thorhill's situation, maybe it's better."
"Okay, I'll pay attention." Lin Yun nodded slightly.
