Part-Time BOSS Chapter 309: Regent
Before the leaders of the countries spoke, the princes and princesses of Lordaeron couldn't help but began to add insult to injury.
King Wu Meow (Prince of Lordaeron): "Brother, I didn't expect you to be such a person. You actually murdered the father for the throne! Wow, yes, I will fight with you!"
Old driver (Prince of Lordaeron): "Big brother, big brother, I didn't expect it. It's okay for the eighth brother and the ninth brother to play void shadow blackening, but you, the darling of the Holy Light with thick eyebrows and big eyes, turned traitor."
Winter is coming (Prince of Lordaeron): "There is nothing more to say, brothers, let's send the eldest brother on the road together!"
All the princes and princesses yelled and cursed, and some were even ready to do something.
In their opinion, Godwin probably did this. After all, as the crown prince, he was the one who benefited the most after the death of the king.
As for some doubts in this letter—well, it doesn't matter.
In any case, kill the crown prince first, so that everyone will have a chance to share power. If Godwin becomes king, then they will be better off?
After the princes and princesses scolded, the leaders of various countries also started to attack.
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "Damn it! Godwin, you treat your father like this. For the sake of power and status, you don't even want honor!"
Blowing his beard and staring at the dwarf, with a posture filled with righteous indignation, Muradin has some reasons to be angry, because he is the master of Arthas, he often lives in Lordaeron, and he and Tenaris are considered friends relation.
Rodman and Falstad were relatively calm, "Prince Godwin, how do you explain this letter?"
Representatives of Gilneas and Stromgarde remained on the sidelines as usual, with no sense of presence.
Antonidas didn't say a word, but the hand holding the staff was already tightened, and his eyes looked at him like lightning, and he didn't feel a little 'old and weak'.
As for players such as Murphy and Dalabang, they all seemed to be watching the show.
Godwin naturally couldn't accept the blame, and hastily denied it: "It's not me! This letter must be fake-yes, this letter is fake. If I really wrote this letter, how could it be possible?" It will be easily found out, and the orcs will definitely destroy it after reading it. Since they carry it with them, it can be seen that this letter is clearly a means of planting by the orcs, in order to cause turmoil within the alliance."
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "But you did transfer the guards of the palace! How do you explain this?"
Godwin argued: "I just didn't expect the orcs to be so bold as to assassinate the father."
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "So you mean you are not too bad, but too stupid?"
As soon as these words came out, Godwin was dumbfounded for a moment. Murphy listened to him and couldn't help giving a thumbs up. For a prince who is going to inherit the throne, it is a big problem.
Once Godwin accepts this blame, the rationality of his succession to the throne will be questioned immediately. The princes of Lordaeron may have prepared a pit for him long ago.
Godwin could naturally think of this, and didn't respond immediately. He was thinking about how to make an excuse, but Varian spoke first.
Varian (Prince of Storms): "Everyone, let me say something! The death of King Tenaris is a tragedy that no one wants to see. My father also died at the hands of orcs. To all princes I empathize with my grief.
However, regardless of whether this matter was done by Prince Godwin or not, there is one thing that Prince Godwin said was right. The orcs would leave the letter on the assassin for us to find, and it must be to hope that there will be turmoil within the alliance.
Perhaps this matter is true. Prince Godwin did collude with the orcs, but the orcs were obviously not prepared to abide by the agreement, so they deliberately left the secret letter on the assassin for us to discover.
Of course, there is also a possibility that Prince Godwin was framed, and all of this is a conspiracy of the orcs to stir up civil strife.
Now we are still unable to determine the truth of all this, so in my opinion, we must jump out of the orc conspiracy. Since the orc wants us to have internal turmoil, then we must ensure internal stability and unity no matter what, as long as it is done At this point, the orc's conspiracy will not succeed. "
As soon as Varian's words came out, everyone nodded. This is true.
It's true that everyone wants to suppress Lordaeron, but they really don't want Lordaeron to be in turmoil.
The second orc war is still counting on Lordaeron, the big brother of the alliance, to support the scene. If Lordaeron is really messed up, then who will go up to top the tank?
After hearing Varian's words, Godwin felt like a bone was stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit it out.
Varian's words seemed to smooth things over, and there was no problem with everything being stable, but he directly characterized him as "the person who might kill Tenaris", which made him nod or shake his head.
If you agree, it seems like you have a guilty conscience, and if you disagree, you are suspected of undermining the unity of the alliance.
He thought about it for a while, and made up his mind that even if he was beaten to death at this time, he would not be able to admit it.
Godwin (Prince of Lordaeron): "I did not do this. I swear in the name of the Holy Light! I never colluded with the orcs to murder the king. If what I said is false, let the holy Just judge me."
There is still some weight in these words. The Holy Light is a symbol of justice and holiness. Godwin, as the patron of the Holy Light, swears in the name of the Holy Light, so he still has some credibility.
Several close friends of Godwin also started to support him.
Augustus (Prince of Lordaeron): "I also think it makes sense, how could the elder brother do such a thing, he is the one chosen by the Holy Light."
Alexander (Prince of Lordaeron): "My brother was definitely framed by someone, I believe my brother."
Valkyrie (Princess of Lordaeron): "That's right, big brother is the 'Glory of the Holy Light'. People may make mistakes, but how can the Holy Light misjudge people?"
These players are all members of the 'Imperial Faction'. Unlike other players who are obsessed with grabbing the position of the Lich King or wanting to make a fortune for themselves, this faction all hopes to establish the Lordaeron Empire. Lordaeron is divided.
At this time, the savage king Conan spoke again.
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "If swearing is useful, why do you need a judge? The Holy Light can only judge whether a person's heart is righteous, but if the eldest brother thinks that killing the father and the king is a kind of justice, you have to If you don’t use the means to do it, then it is not considered as a departure from the way of the Holy Light.
This letter is written to reach peace with the tribe. Perhaps in the eyes of the eldest brother, such peace is better than war with the orcs, and it can avoid war and death. For this reason, even if you kill your beloved father No matter what, perhaps in his opinion, this is actually a kind of sacrifice.
Am I right bro? "
As soon as Godwin said this, no matter how well-bred he was, he wanted to scold his mother. How the **** did you interpret it like this?
He stared fiercely at himself, the twelfth younger brother, and Conan the Barbarian didn't blame him, and looked at him with a dissatisfied expression on his face.
However, when it comes to suppressing Godwin, he is obviously not fighting alone.
Blainey (Prince of Gilneas): "With all due respect, judging from the current situation, if Prince Godwin cannot get rid of the suspicion, it is better to hand over his power."
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "That's right, although Godwin may have been framed, but as the most powerful kingdom in the alliance, Lordaeron's kingship must not be in the slightest risk, for safety's sake , it’s better to hand over the power to a more suitable player—I think Alsace is very good, what do you think.”
People said that of course you think Alsace is good, you are Alsace's master, if Alsace becomes king, it will undoubtedly be very beneficial to Ironforge.
Blackbeard (commodore of the Kul Tiras Navy): "I think the fifth prince is better. The fifth prince has made outstanding achievements in the battle against the Naga. He is an excellent general. I have worked with him before. He He looks like a king."
Antonidas (Dalaran Archmage): "I think the third prince is more suitable. The magic talent he showed in Dalaran is amazing, and he is full of reason and wisdom. If he If you come to be the king, you will be able to govern the country to the greatest extent reasonably."
Gedwin's lips were trembling in anger. It's not your turn to speak about the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
However, he himself was suspected, so he really didn't dare to offend these big bosses rashly.
In fact, the biggest problem is that Lordaeron is too disunity. There are more than 40 princes and more than 30 princesses. They are divided into three or four factions. Each faction has its own demands. Everyone wants A piece of the Game of Thrones pie is totally out of the question.
Otherwise, if everyone can unite as one, there will be no room for outsiders to intervene.
The ones who are really united with him now are the princes of those imperial factions.
The high-level executives of all countries in the alliance want to weaken Lordaeron, so how to cover it up?
At this moment, a private message suddenly appeared in front of him.
Aidan: Brother Godwin, do you need help?
Godwin was taken aback for a moment.
Godwin: What do you want?
Aidan: I can support you on behalf of Alterac, and I can persuade Varian to support you, but you have to show some sincerity.
Godwin: What do you want.
Aidan: Give me 500 knights, any knight will do, I will guarantee you the top position.
Five hundred knights! What a joke!
You must know that the entire Royal Knights of Lordaeron only has 5,000 members.
However, you can use feudal knights, chivalrous knights and other no-name knights to make do with it.
Gritwin gritted his teeth - yes.
Godwin: Okay, give me a helping hand, and I'll give it to you later.
Aidan: Don't, our family is weak, but we can't afford credit, why don't we sign a contract.
After speaking, an electronic contract was sent directly.
The content is very simple. Once Godwin becomes king, he must send five hundred knights to Murphy.
Godwin: ...
He couldn't help but doubt in his heart, could it be the hole dug by this guy? Even the contract is ready.
However, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and sign the contract.
Seeing that Godwin signed the contract, Murphy smiled slightly. Now that the Dragon Knights can expand again, he directly stood up,
"Everyone, please listen to me."
In the past, Alterac didn't have much say in the alliance. It was worse than the background boards of the Kingdom of Gilneas and the Kingdom of Stromgarde. It was because of the limelight that Mo Fei, the head of the Dragon Knights, naturally had some right to speak.
Everyone looked over.
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "It is obviously impossible to judge the authenticity of this matter, so please don't worry about the authenticity of this matter. country, and to prevent Prince Varian from going to Northrend to find the artifact to defeat the orcs, and to negotiate peace with the Horde.
Tell me Prince Godwin, what are you going to do? "
"Of course - no!" Godwin was furious in his heart, but there was a sincere expression on his face.
"I am full of sympathy for the people of the Stormwind Kingdom. How can I prevent the Stormwind Kingdom from returning to the country? It was my father's order to transfer the Stormwind Kingdom's army and seize the warships, although I don't know. What is his purpose, but I absolutely do not agree with him.
Not only that, but I also support Prince Varian in doing so. Today I also sent several warships to Prince Varian. Prince Varian can testify. "
Varian nodded, "Prince Godwin did send me several warships."
Godwin continued: "If I inherit the throne, I will not only return the impounded warships, sailors and soldiers, but also strongly support His Royal Highness Varian's restoration plan, and I swear that I will be at peace with the orcs and resolutely I support the formation of a coalition army to fight the orcs, and I am willing to lead the Lordaeron army to the forefront of the front line, the orcs' plan to provoke us will never succeed."
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Well said, considering that this matter may never be able to figure out what the truth is, I propose that, with everyone present as witnesses, from today onwards Prince Godwin will be the Regent of Danlun, temporarily acting as king.
As long as he supports Prince Varian to go to Northrend to find artifacts, defeat the orcs, and help the Kingdom of Stormwind to restore the country-these three things, it will be regarded as fulfilling his oath and clearing his suspicion. inherit the throne. "
As soon as the words came out, everyone fell into deep thought.
Especially country representatives.
Their goal is to weaken Lordaeron without splitting it.
It is still very difficult to say, but if you accept Murphy's three suggestions, then if Godwin wants to become king, he must first defeat the orcs, and to defeat the orcs, naturally Lordaeron's main force must be mobilized , anyway, for others, it is enough not to lose, but for Godwin, it is necessary to win.
In this way, you won't be afraid that he won't work hard.
At that time, Lordaeron's army will inevitably consume more and suffer more casualties, and all countries can use this to develop their strength and reach a balance of power with Lordaeron.
Thinking of the ingenious calculations among these three suggestions, the quick response has already made a decision.
Varian was the first to agree.
Varian (Prince of Storms): "I don't want Prince Godwin to be that kind of person either, so I agree with this resolution. As long as Prince Godwin can defeat the orcs, it is enough to prove that he is not the one who colluded with the orcs."
Antonidas (Dalaran Archmage): "If Prince Godwin can accept this proposal and swear to complete the three missions, then I can give up the pursuit of King Tenaris' death."
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "I still think Arthas is a better king—but okay."
Everyone agreed.
Murphy looked at Godwin with a smile: "How about Prince Godwin, what do you think?"
However, Godwin was still a little unwilling. He was obviously the crown prince and could directly inherit the throne, but in the end he had to be the regent for a few years first.
Although the power of the king can be temporarily replaced, there is no such thing as a real king.
He is still hesitating, but his younger brothers and sisters quit first.
"If this must be the case, I am willing to accept this agreement. I will use the blood of the orcs to wash away the suspicion on my body. I will help the Kingdom of Stormwind to restore the country and face the justice in my heart."
Jon Snow (Prince of Lordaeron): "Damn, why, the elder brother is obviously blackened, why don't you choose me as the king, I can also defeat the orcs!"
Elsa (Princess of Lordaeron): "That's right, Godwin, you white-eyed wolf, you killed your father, and you still want to be king, what good things do you want, we can't agree to this! "
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "Why don't we learn from Alterac and set up a council of princes, and we can't hand over power to such dutiful sons who murdered their own fathers."
Winter is approaching (Prince of Lordaeron): "I agree, call back the third brother, fifth brother, seventh brother, and twenty-eight brother, and everyone will hold a meeting to vote."
However, in the face of the anger of the princes and princesses of Lordaeron, this time the leaders of various countries all sided with Godwin.
Since the goal of weakening Lordaeron has been achieved, there is no need to force it anymore. If Lordaeron is really split, it is not what they want. The big guys are still counting on Lordaeron to fight What about the orcs?
Antonidas snorted coldly, "What are you princes and princesses making a fuss about? Just make some tests, you have no right to question this agreement, if you want to challenge the decision of the alliance meeting, then you are challenging the alliance's throne and legitimacy, do you want to treason?"
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "That's right! The majesty of the alliance cannot be desecrated, put away your temper, my friends, your father never wants to see the kingdom happen at this critical moment Civil turmoil."
Rodman (Grand Magister): "Yes, yes, we must focus on the overall situation."
Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Antonidas, as an elder and also the speaker of Dalaran, had a detached position, so he stepped forward to this matter as a matter of course. "What do you say, Prince Godwin, are you willing to accept this oath?"
Godwin glanced at his younger brothers and sisters who were staring at each other, and then at the representatives of various countries with different expressions, and sighed.
"I am willing to accept this oath~IndoMTL.com~Antonidas (Dalaran Archmage):"Then Prince Godwin, I now declare that from today onwards, you will be the regent of Lordaeron, interim king Authority, until fulfilling your oath to become the true king, before that, the crown of Lordaeron is kept by the Alliance Council on its behalf. "
As Antonidas said, he took off the crown of King Tenaris.
Seeing the wound on King Tenaris' chest, Antonidas' eyes flashed with surprise. Although King Tenaris had several orc swords stuck in his body, it was obvious that the blow to his chest was fatal. .
However, he didn't say anything. Isn't there another orc sword master who disappeared, or maybe it was stabbed by that orc sword master? Who can say clearly about this kind of thing.
He quietly put away the crown.
Everyone saluted Godwin, and Godwin returned the salute with a forced smile, as if the civil turmoil had been settled.
