Chapter 5 Restarting the Three Powers Conference
This is a popular saying in the Kingdom of Itiner—
Ever since the King's Guards and Temple Guards took back the Selected Ones from the Frost Fortress, major events have been happening.
First, the deputy priest of the temple, Lord Seyah, known as the wisest and youngest candidate of the main priest ever, died in the Kingdom of Sekored.
Later, when the envoys of the Kingdom of Saikore returned the body, they were ambushed by vampires in the territory. Except for the dragon Wings Jede Peg who survived with his powerful strength, they were almost wiped out.
The relationship between the two countries is in a very delicate and terrible state of about to break out.
Not long after, after the election ceremony, the Lord of the Saint Beta leader, Grand Duke Oga, was killed by Duke Shalom in the royal city.
The leader of Xiyan escaped from control and invaded the royal capital, almost killing His Majesty the King.
That night was called—
The blood-stained God-Selected Ritual.
It seems that this is a very ominous omen.
If it weren't for God's favor, Robin would have long been regarded as a kingdom.
The hearts of the people below are also shaken, uncertain whether the return of the chosen one can really continue the bloodline of the kingdom and bring them a bright future.
In short, while Itnair is in a shaky turmoil, something big happened recently.
Although the people below may not understand it, for those high-level nobles, this is a very strong signal—
The signal that will bring them back to the peak of power.
Of course, it may also be a signal that you fall into the abyss and will never be able to escape from now on—
The [Restart the Three Powers Conference Plan] jointly initiated by the Temple God Envoy Kalista and the three great dukes.
When Margaret Cecil heard the news, she trembled.
Even the goblet filled with crimson Kafei Manor wine in his hand was accidentally dropped to the ground.
With a clang.
The cup was smashed.
The fragrance of wine is everywhere.
The crimson-red wine dyed the floor red like blood.
Several servants immediately cleaned up with tools.
One of the slightly dark-skinned maids lay on the ground, carefully and quickly picked up the glass fragments on the ground, and then placed them in their palms.
This goblet is her two-month salary.
"What's wrong, mother?"
Annabel Cecil, the young heir of the Cecil family, asked in a gentle tone, with a pair of sapphire blue eyes looking at the glass fragments on the ground.
"It's going to change."
Margaret held her hands tightly, her eyes filled with worries.
Half of her body was above the windowsill and she stared blankly at the sky outside.
The sky is filled with dark clouds and the wind is gradually rising.
It looks like it is going to rain.
In the south, winter is actually a season of abundant rain.
"Are you talking about the Three Powers Conference?"
"Yes." Margaret's voice looked a little old.
The gray hair on the back of her head increased a lot.
The Three Powers Conference has existed since the Three Kingdoms. The so-called Three Powers refer to the three powers of the temple, nobles and kings.
In the Three Powers Conference, they decided the general direction of the kingdom through the votes in their hands.
But this rule was broken during Olivia's administration.
He expanded the number of people in the Three Powers Conference from the first more than 20 to the current hundred, and added other voting rights in addition to the Three Powers—
Handicraftsman, businessman, farmer, apprentice...
It has become a multi-rights meeting.
This allowed many civilians without noble titles to participate.
The lower structure of the kingdom is mediated, but it will damage the rights and interests above.
New nobles like the Cecil family are one of the gainers.
The king's multi-power meeting system greatly promoted the sense of participation and enthusiasm of the new nobles and civilians, and people were more willing to contribute to the kingdom.
As long as you are willing to fight, sacrifice, and give, then His Majesty the King will not treat you unfairly.
Therefore, the Cecil family was promoted from the original merchant family to the new noble family.
It was entirely because of His Majesty the King's policies and their contribution to the Kingdom.
For this reason, many people died in the Cecil family.
At the same time, they also paid money to support His Majesty the King's construction, and on the other hand, they were used to clear the relationship.
After ten years of operation, the businessman Cecil finally reached a position that could be looked up by other nobles.
North Dian Tulli, South Kinceil.
They are talking about the two most important business aristocrats.
Now, all this is very likely to disappear with the restart of the old Three Powers Conference.
How can this prevent her from feeling anxious?
"Don't worry, Mother," Annabel laughed. "In my opinion, history will not go backwards. There are too many interests involved. We are not the only beneficiaries. There are many new nobles, and many of them have strong economic strength."
She thought for a while and continued, "Sometimes force is a kind of power, politics is a kind of power, but isn't money also a kind of power?"
When Margaret's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard her words.
This child always looks at the problem thoroughly.
So much smarter than when she was younger.
"Yes, we don't want to give up, and other families won't give up."
"So, some things that are too heavy and decay should be replaced by fresh and vital things." Annabel stepped forward, "Maybe this is also an opportunity to push those decay and heavy things."
"How to push?" Margaret's eyes shone.
"I have heard a lot about the new Selected Ones." Annabel said quietly with his eyebrows down, "especially at the public and private meeting after the Selected Ones ceremony, what he said was not like a remark that he should have at his age. His eyes were long and profound, and maybe he could help us."
"Huh?" Margaret's expression was a little surprised. "He has always been called the [Choose of Doom]. He didn't expect that he would get such a high evaluation in you?"
Margaret did not ask or doubt about how she learned the specific content of the public and private meeting.
Annabel has his own intelligence network, and it is also through the informative news that the family has come to this day.
In her own words—
Money can do everything.
Annabel smiled faintly.
"So luck has no meaning. We are not going to get to where we are today, aren't we?"
She held her hands and stood respectfully behind Margaret.
"If the chosen one can object to the reopening of the old Three Powers Conference, and the God-Emporter can abdicate and give way to the wise, then—"
She smiled sly, "Maybe there will be a new national parliamentary pattern."
"What does it mean?" Margaret was always a little older and could not understand her words immediately.
"I will set off to meet the Chosen and will also be his most important help in the future."
Annabel took a step back and bowed slightly to Margaret.
