Remember [New] in a second! Lordaeron's prosperity has been maintained for hundreds of years. During these hundreds of years, the royal palace located at the southernmost tip of the royal city and adjacent to the northern shore of Lake Lordaeron has also undergone many expansions, and its area is very vast.

Princess Calia's status in the royal family of Menethil is not high, after King Terenas and Crown Prince Alsace, her bedroom is not a short distance from the vestibule palace where government affairs are handled daily.

The small garden on the north side facing the city is near Calia's bedroom, and it only takes a few minutes to walk there.

After Terenas woke up from a severe coma, in order to take care of both government affairs and physical recuperation, he deliberately moved his bedroom to the palace closest to the outer court, so that the ministers could have an audience.

And Calia's bedroom is located in the middle west of the inner courtyard of the palace group, walking through such a huge palace, it is reasonable to say that it is not so easy to encounter Terenas who is unwell.

But such a bizarre thing just happened, Sharlayan suspected for a moment that his identity had been exposed.

"Ahem~"

Although Calia politely praised Terenas for his improved health, Sharlayan could hear from his out of breath cough that the old man was still very weak.

In order to avoid being discovered by Terenas, Sharlayan did not dare to poke his head out to look at his face, and quietly huddled in Calia's wide sleeves to listen to the conversation between the father and daughter.

"Heh~ the polite words will be avoided."

Terenas smiled self-deprecatingly: "My body, I know it myself."

"After all, I am old, and the recovery speed is far slower than when I was young and strong."

"If it had been five years earlier, this minor illness would have recovered within a week at most."

Jia Liya frowned and said, "Father, what you are suffering from this time is not a minor illness. The pastors have also said that you are suffering from overwork."

"Diseases that were forcibly suppressed by physical fitness when young, come out all at once when you get older. It is by no means easy to take care of your body. You should reduce your workload as much as possible and take care of your body."

Terenas said stubbornly: "I really want to, but now I don't dare not stop."

"Nowadays, the wind and rain are raging inside and outside the kingdom. One wrong step may cause Lordaeron to fall into the abyss. How can you let me retire with peace of mind?"

Calia: "This..."

Terenas waved his hand weakly: "Cough~ forget it, let's not talk about this."

"It's rare that today's government affairs are dealt with early. I plan to visit Alsace and point out his misunderstandings in governing the country."

Salayan suddenly felt Calia's bare hands clenched in her sleeves slightly clenched, but she still didn't say anything on the surface, and still maintained the elegant and gentle smile that she had cultivated since she was a child.

"That child is easy to get into the wrong end, and someone really needs to enlighten him."

"enlighten?"

Terenas sneered: "My Terenas' child is not that fragile. What Alsace needs is not enlightenment, but the guidance of someone who has experienced it."

"Okay, don't blow too much wind outside, go back to the bedroom to rest after enjoying afternoon tea, tomorrow morning you will go to the Legislative Hall to assist me in governing."

Calia remained calm, and once again bowed her legs slightly to salute Terenas.

"Thank you for your concern, Father, please go slowly."

Watching Terenas march towards Alsace's palace with the support of his attendants, Calia stood there blankly looking at his back, without moving for a long time.

Sharlayan also took the opportunity to poke his head out of the cuffs to observe, and the old men with stooped bodies, dressed in fine clothes and crowns were staggering away gradually.

'Is that Terenas? This guy is only in his 50s this year, right? Why do you look like you're dying? '

According to the official notification of Lordaeron, the average life expectancy of the people of the Kingdom of Lordaeron is only 45 years old.

But that's because civilians who live in poor conditions and struggle to feed themselves pull down the average.

Princes and aristocrats like Terenas who eat well and take good care of themselves can usually live to their 70s or even 80s without any pressure, as long as they don't suffer from incurable terminal illnesses.

Although Sharlayan often said that Terenas was old and fatuous, in fact his age was not considered old among human nobles, and he should be regarded as hanging at the end of middle age.

However, from the outside, the hunchbacked and gray-haired Terenas looked like he was in his seventies and eighties.

"It seems that this serious illness has consumed a lot of his vitality, and he looks ten years older than his actual age."

Under Sharlayan's low-pitched reminder, Calia, who was in a silent trance, finally pulled back her wandering thoughts.

Seeing that there was no one around, Salayan got out of his cuffs, nimbly grabbed the lace edge of Calia's uniform and climbed up, finally squatting on her slightly thin shoulders.

"Not in a good mood? Obviously you are assisting him with government affairs during this time, but what Terenas cares most about and wants to cultivate the most will always be his precious son."

Jia Liya pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "Don't say it, Alsace is the crown prince in the first place, so what is my vase? It's just a temporary replacement for him."

"Oh~"

The most taboo to communicate with others is to talk lightly. Salayan and Calia have met each other for less than an hour, and they don't know each other well enough.

Continuing to speak would easily arouse Calia's resentment and vigilance, making her think that she was trying to sow discord among members of the royal family of Lordaeron.

The purpose of Sharlayan's trip was to build momentum to help Lordaeron's peace faction gain the upper hand in the internal political struggle, and force the red-eyed Terenas to give up his plan to comeback, and gritted his teeth to admit Alterac's regained independence.

During the previous week's lurking, Sarlayan's mission to build momentum had been successfully completed with the cooperation of the Quel'Thalas Propaganda Department, causing a large number of people to doubt the authenticity of Lordaeron's official report.

With the help of the officials of the Peace Faction, more real intelligence from the front line was revealed in various parts of Lordaeron.

The people of Lordaeron, who had always been very optimistic about the war situation, discovered that the situation on the front line was not as destructive as they had imagined. situation.

In order not to cause widespread panic, the Peaceful faction hid a lot of information and did not disclose it, but Sharlayan knew all about it.

The reason for the temporary stalemate is that the Kingdom of Stormgard has not yet sent troops.

Now on the western front, the Kingdom of Gilneas is fighting against Lordaeron with the secret assistance of Dalaran, and on the eastern front, the combined forces of Alterac and Kul Tiras are blocking the advance of the Knights of the Silver Hand.

The four major human kingdoms have already exerted their strength openly and secretly, but the Kingdom of Stormgard, which has just taken back its capital, Stromgarde, is still standing still.

However, this is only temporary. Given the grievances between Stormgard and Lordaeron, if there is an opportunity to take a bite of Lordaeron, the Regency Council will never let go of the opportunity.

If Terenas continues to increase troops on the two fronts, the other human kingdoms will not sit idly by. Both sides will increase their bets on the battlefield, causing the flames of war to expand step by step, and even spread to the entire northern part of the Eastern Continent.

Sharlayan's plan is to force Terenas to make concessions before Stormgard sends troops, and end this local war with the risk of expansion.

Under the cultivation of successive kings Menethil, the kingship of the Kingdom of Lordaeron has an absolute upper hand.

If it wasn't for Terenas and Alsace, the father and son's wrong decisions one after another caused vicious incidents that damaged the national strength~lightnovelpub.net~ The nobles' doubts about the royal family's decision would not be seen by Terenas at all in the eyes.

But in any case, the status of the royal family members in the Kingdom of Lordaeron is still very high.

Witnessing the mistakes made by the old Terenas and the immature Alsace with their own eyes, the aristocratic ministers headed by the prime minister were really disappointed with the father and son, and they began to tentatively turn their expectations to another. members of the royal family.

Princess Calia, who has gradually emerged in Lordaeron's political arena recently.

It is precisely because of the secret support of Princess Jialia that the peace faction dares to stand up to the king Terenas who is fighting all the way.

Under Sharlayan's operation, the hearts of the people in Lordaeron were in turmoil. Commoners and nobles were worried that the flames of war would burn to them.

But this is not enough, for the stubborn Terenas to make concessions, the peace faction needs a heavy blow, enough to completely wake up Terenas from the dream of human unification.
