Chapter 570: Problems left over from history

With the decline of the power of the old nobles, the internal disputes in Quel'Thalas gradually stabilized.

But as long as Darkan is alive, this protracted infighting is not really over.

The old fox pretended to be drinking tea and reading the newspaper all day long, but Kael'thas, who was in contact with him every day, could see the turmoil in this guy's heart.

When Kael'thas first came to power, Darkan did consider taking advantage of the unstable foundation of the new king to make a move.

It's a pity that the old king laid a solid foundation before retiring, so Darkan couldn't find a chance to make a move.

In addition, the new king is not just a theoretician who can only talk about it. Not only is he calm and pragmatic, but he is also surrounded by a group of capable ministers and officials, and there is a stinky boy with a vicious vision outside to control the overall situation.

It is undoubtedly a dream to tear up the increasingly stable royal power just by relying on the old nobles who have long since faded away.

Without a chance to make a move, Darkan could only continue to lie dormant.

Kael'thas and Sharlayan are very clear that he has not given up his inner ambition.

He is like a hyena hiding in the dark, always watching every move of his prey, once he finds a flaw, he will start hunting without hesitation.

With such an insidious guy watching from the side, some information related to the deep secrets of Azeroth is not easy to explain clearly in front of the Silver Moon Council.

After all, Dar'Khan is just an expert in internal fighting trapped in a corner of Quel'Thalas, and his understanding of the world situation is very weak.

Regardless of internal or external conflicts, Sharlayan always believed that intelligence was the most important link.

With the backlight blades scattered all over the world to provide information, Kael'thas can open his eyes to see the world at any time.

Darkan should also have a secret organization in charge of intelligence collection, but in order to avoid being discovered by the Backlight Blade, he definitely dare not go too far.

Sharlayan didn't want to broaden Dar'Khan's vision, this guy should let him squat at home as a mountain sculpture.

For a person like Dar'Khan, the bigger his vision, the bigger his ambitions. If he colludes with some external forces that don't like Quel'Thalas, it will be really troublesome.

In view of this, even though Kael'thas had long been hesitant about Sharlayan's bizarre adventures, he patiently waited until the private conversation before asking.

When Sharlayan first met Kael'thas, the prince who was forced to "exile" Dalaran was at the lowest point in his life.

The raging political struggles in the country made Anasteria terrified and had to send the only heir to the throne abroad to avoid the limelight.

However, Kael'thas's life in Dalaran was not satisfactory. His status as the Crown Prince meant that the Kirin Tor Council could not entrust him with important internal affairs of Dalaran.

It would be fine if it was just like this, Kael'thas can also accumulate some experience for the future in charge of Quel'Thalas by handling those non-important affairs that hang around.

However, under the oppression of the humanists headed by Modera, Kael'thas, the nominal member of the Kirin Tor, was almost completely emptied.

With the help of Sharlayan, Kael'thas finally managed to find a sigh of relief before leaving Dalaran and returning home.

Since Kael'thas had already ascended the throne and had managed to ease the relationship with Quel'Thalas, Antonidas would not allow irrelevant people to damage the cooperation between the two countries again.

Therefore, Modera has still not been able to recover, and was pinned down by Antonidas in her own mage tower to do research.

Adding icing on the cake is like giving charcoal in the snow. Sharlayan helped Kael'thas at the most difficult time. After several years of cooperation, the personal friendship between the two has become deeper and deeper.

Coincidentally, the two had very similar understandings of Quel'Thalas' future development plan, adding a layer of like-minded aura to their good personal relationship.

Just as Darkan thought, the Sharlayan holy family is now flourishing, and there will be no signs of decay for a while.

Since this team cannot be dismantled, Darkan can only sell the benefits along the way, suggesting that Sharlayan only obey the orders of the royal family.

To put it bluntly, he is an imperial envoy holding royal privileges.

As for how much authority this imperial envoy can get, it depends on how much Kael'thas trusts Sarlayan.

The General Affairs Department is an institution specially appointed by Quel'Thalas to appoint officials at all levels, and it is under the jurisdiction of Silvermoon Councilor Solanlian.

In the words of the barrage, the General Affairs Department is equivalent to the official department in charge of appointing and dismissing officials in ancient times in another world. It is one of the six high-ranking departments, and it is also the head of the six departments.

Sharlayan knew that even if he didn't want to, in order to strengthen Quel'Thalas, sooner or later he would get involved in the domestic political situation.

That being the case, it is necessary to prepare in advance.

He purposely asked Danmaku about the so-called six powers in another world.

The six ministries mentioned in the barrage are the Ministry of Officials in charge of the appointment of officials, the distribution of resources such as finance and food, the Ministry of Household Registration of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Rites in charge of etiquette publicity and cultural and educational undertakings, the Ministry of Penalties in charge of one-stop punishment, and the Ministry of Military Affairs. The Ministry of War, and finally the Ministry of Industry, which is in charge of various engineering projects across the country.

According to the perspective of "modern people" mentioned by the barrage, the distribution of powers of the six ministries is not clear enough. In many cases, the eyebrows and beards are grasped, and it is inevitable that there will be overlaps in powers.

Quel'Thalas is also facing the problem of unclear and overlapping authority of officials, which is a historical problem left over from the Dath'Remar period.

To put it bluntly, it was still made by his method of dividing the cake.

Dath'Remar only thought of everyone sitting in line to eat fruit, but he left a lot of troubles for his descendants.

Sharlayan does not disparage Dath'Remar's achievements, but everything must be viewed from multiple angles.

It is true that Dath'Remar led the high elves to cross thousands of miles to the east, and used the well water from the Well of Eternity to create the Sunwell, which laid the foundation of Quel'Thalas in one fell swoop. No one can cover up his credit.

But this does not mean that Dath'Remar is the almighty and perfect man that those old nobles boasted.

There is no unreasonable love in the world. The reason why the old nobles boast about Dath'Remar is because he damaged his own royal power and distributed the power to the old brothers who followed him to fight the world.

When Dath'Remar was still there, with his strong personality and great achievements, those grateful nobles would naturally not stand up to him.

Unfortunately, not every Sun King can get the full support of the nobles.

In the early days of the founding of the country, Quel'Thalas was busy dealing with the crazy attack of forest trolls, and all the nobles were providing full support for this protracted Patriotic War.

However, as the amazingly talented Taranas Windrunner founded the ranger army and drove the trolls out of the northern part of Eversong Forest step by step, the nobles of Silvermoon City who gradually stabilized finally began to enjoy life with peace of mind.

From then on, these founding nobles lost their sense of crisis and began to degenerate rapidly, even daring to confront the Sun King face to face.

These historical problems created by Dath'Remar were exposed just at the beginning of Anasterian's tenure.

Sarlayan intends to persuade Kael'thas to rectify the bureaucracy after returning to the country this time, and reorganize the distribution of powers among various departments, so as to avoid the situation of overlapping powers and arguing with each other again.

After listening to a series of adventure stories told by Sharlayan, Kael'thas couldn't recover for a long time.

"Pandaria...I didn't expect that there is such a continent hidden in the mist in Azeroth."

Kael'thas said with some emotion: "Now I finally know where those pandaren who like to travel around come from."

Gathering his mind, Kael'thas asked solemnly: "So, Loken and his steel army are not orthodox Titan Guardians, but a group of rebels who betrayed their duties?"

Sharlayan nodded: "You can say that."

"I have already recruited Azadas, the orthodox guardian. In the next few years, the members of Backlight Blade headed by Yatra will sneak into the storm cliff and try to get in touch with another guardian, Thorim. .”

"Hey~"

Kael'thas smiled wryly and rubbed the center of his brows: "The outside world is so exciting, but I'm trapped in a country where internal conflicts are endless and I can't fight. It's really frustrating."

Sharlayan comforted softly: "The chaos in the country will subside sooner or later. If you want to fight against the outside world, you must first settle down inside."

"In the next few years, I will stay in the country to assist His Majesty, and strive to complete the reforms we have planned as soon as possible, so that Quel'Thalas can regain its vitality."

Kael'thas nodded with a heavy expression: "There is a long way to go, with your help, I can finally relax a little bit."

"By the way, I have ordered Solanlian to ask the General Affairs Department to customize an official position for you. It should be clear in a few days."

"In the spare time these few days, you should go home and take care of the territory affairs and family affairs first. I still need your help in many things in the future."
