Just like what the barrage said, Jialia, who was in the rebellious period, didn't have to compete with Alsace for the crown prince.

She just wants to prove to Terenas that she is not an incompetent tool who can only be used to marry allies, and that she can also contribute to the growth of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

In the eyes of an adult like Sharlayan, this behavior of taking the country's major events to some extent is a bit of a joke, but in the final analysis, this is Terenas' own sin.

Usually, when the king is busy with government affairs, the important task of teaching his children the three views will fall to the queen, the head of the harem.

But Terenas' queen died of illness not long after giving birth to Alsace, and Terenas, who devoted herself to government affairs, had no intention of continuing, and only wanted to complete the great legacy passed down from generation to generation by the Menethil family. A long-cherished wish for unification.

Alsace's depravity in the original history was largely due to Terenas' failed family education.

Logically speaking, since Arthas had two upright and kind mentors like Uther and Muradin, they shouldn't be easily seduced and corrupted by Ner'zhul, who had premeditated it.

But it just happened.

Sharlayan boldly speculated that most of Terenas' teachings to Alsace were just on paper, without actually letting him touch the dark side of the Kingdom of Lordaeron. Mental endurance is severely lacking.

There are loopholes in the cultivation of Crown Prince Alsace, let alone Jialia, a tool for marriage.

From the standpoint of Sharlayan, Lordaeron would naturally be in chaos as much as possible under the condition that the country would not be easily subjugated.

Under the leadership of Sharlayan, Baron Rivendell of the Stratholme region has been separated from the Central Committee of Lordaeron due to political differences, and has become a border country that cannot be lost.

However, with Lordaeron's national strength, it was not enough to persuade Stratholme to remain neutral in the conflict between the two sides. Sharlayan planned to add fire to the Lordaeron Central, so that they would no longer care about external disputes.

No matter which country it is, the nobles are very good at speculating and falling on both sides when the wind blows.

In his rage, Terenas imprisoned Crown Prince Alsace and promoted Calia, which invisibly caused unnecessary associations among the nobles.

They began to secretly speculate whether Alsace, who had messed around during the state supervision period, had lost the trust of Terenas, and the crown prince might instead fall to the more mature and stable Princess Calia.

Terenas, who has not yet recovered from his illness, encountered the Alterac Rebellion as soon as he woke up.

The old king, who was weak in energy, could not operate as many lines as he did when he was in good health. He could only focus most of his attention on the battlefield ahead, and had no extra energy to pay attention to the subtle attitude changes of the nobles.

Seeing that Terenas did not respond to their temptation, some nobles thought that Alsace had really lost power completely, and immediately turned their heads and placed their bets on Princess Calia.

Before entering the palace to meet Calia in person, Sharlayan had been lurking in the city of Lordaeron to collect information.

Thanks to the druid's animal transformation, the members of Lordaeron's intelligence department in the city have never been able to find out that the enemies who have been stirring up wind and rain in the royal city during the recent period are actually swaggering back and forth under their noses.

According to the information Sharlayan collected during this period, after Terenas recovered from a serious illness and Arthas was placed under house arrest, the nobles of Lordaeron were roughly divided into three factions.

One faction is the Princess faction that supports Jialiya as I said before, hoping to improve the status of their respective families from the merits of the dragon by giving charcoal in the timely manner and betting in advance.

The second faction is the prince faction who firmly believes that Alsace will not be easily deposed. They and the princess faction are in conflict, and each wants to completely overwhelm the other.

The third faction is the neutral faction headed by the prime minister of Lordaeron and other senior noble officials.

These powerful officials did not intend to participate in the battle for the throne of the Menethil royal family. They were loyal to Lordaeron and their own family, and they had a clear attitude of not helping each other.

No matter who is in power, these neutral nobles will not be greatly affected, will not be punished, and will not be rewarded.

With their family status, there is really no need to take risks like those little nobles who are eager to rise to the top.

Danmaku once said that there is no faction in the party, and there are all kinds of strange things, but the country is actually the same.

There are more than a hundred people, of all kinds.

It is impossible to have only one voice in a country, and factional disputes are nothing more than normal.

As the helm of a country, what the king needs to do is to balance the conflicts of interests among multiple parties, try to keep the competition of various interest groups within a benign range, and restrict those who cross the line with strict laws.

Healthy competition is not only harmless to the country, but it will effectively form a wave of involution and stimulate the enthusiasm of the domestic people.

Of course, it is not easy to control this speed. Kael'thas, who has only been enthroned for a short time, is still walking on thin ice.

Terenas was able to grasp this balance in the early years, but as he grew older, the once wise King of Lordaeron became more and more stubborn and refused to listen to persuasion, and his physical condition was not as good as before. Control plummeted.

Princess Jialia's foundation is too weak. If there is no assistance from external forces, once Terenas recovers and finds that something is wrong, she can easily suppress her rebellion with a single hand.

The finishing work of the Battle of Alterac this time is the opportunity Sharlayan chose for Calia to accumulate political achievements.

As long as the peace talks between the two parties can be facilitated, the credit will really fall on Jialia, and she will win the praise of many nobles and ministers in the country, which is in stark contrast to Alsace's nonsense not long ago.

At that time, it will not be so easy for Terenas to handle Calia.

Even if Calia's original intention was not to **** her younger brother's crown prince, but just to prove her ability, the nobles below would push her all the way forward, until finally the yellow robe was added to her body, and the battle between Lordaeron would also be Therefore, it has entered a white-hot stage.

As the bullet screen half-jokingly accused, Sharlayan also felt that he was making a big fuss by taking advantage of the girl's rebellious heart.

But national affairs cannot tolerate soft-heartedness. Sharlayan is a Quel'Thalas native, so he should stand on Quel'Thalas's standpoint and make suggestions for the benefit of his country.

As for other countries, especially hostile countries like Lordaeron... Sharlayan is not so fraternal, he is destined not to become a saint who harms himself and benefits others.

Moreover, Sharlayan has carefully considered the possibility of subsequent development of the Lordaeron storage battle.

With the secret support of Quel'Thalas, Calia really has a high probability of being able to squeeze out the far immature Alsace.

Once Calia ascends the throne and becomes the first queen in the history of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, with this early investment, she has a high probability of easing the tension with Quel'Thalas.

This is a good thing for both countries. It can put aside external conflicts and concentrate on dealing with internal issues.

From this point of view, supporting Jialia to the top position is not entirely out of the intention of taking advantage, but it can also be regarded as an investment in a win-win future.

Thinking of this, Sharlayan felt much better.

【...You are really talented, can this be justified? 】

…

Since Sharlayan lived in Calia's palace in the form of a little white cat, every day he took time to tell Calia about the world situation outside the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

Sharlayan traveled all over Azeroth a few years ago, and his knowledge of the customs and customs of various places in Azeroth happened to be his strong point.

In the past, Jialia's understanding of the outside world was very weak. With the intelligence resources in her hands, she could only obtain information related to Lordaeron at most, and there were many gaps.

Sharlayan first explained to her the beginning and end of the Battle of Alterac in simple terms, as well as the forces and interests involved behind the war.

Knowing that the fuse of the war had been planted six years ago, and that it was the dispute over the succession of Alterac that she was familiar with, Calia could only shake her head and smile wryly~lightnovelpub.net~ She thought of Tai The Lord Daval Prestor that Reynas preferred back then.

She was just a hair away from marrying that Alterac nobleman who appeared out of nowhere.

"Daval Prestor? Ha!"

Sharlayan's cat showed a sarcasm on its face: "Lordaeron hasn't received any information from the Kingdom of Stormwind? Or is it just that you don't know about it?"

"The so-called Prestor family is just a false identity fabricated by the traitor Black Dragon headed by Deathwing."

"Not long ago, I discussed this with King Iserton in the Alterac Snow Mountains. From ancient times to the present, there has never been a nobleman with the surname Prestor in the Alterac Kingdom."

"what?!"

Calia's eyes widened, and she asked Sharlayan in a daze, "Is this true? Black Dragon? Neither the king nor I have heard of this news."

"Not long ago, he was bemoaning Lord Prestor's departure from the Kingdom of Stormwind, otherwise the Alterac turmoil might not have happened at all."
