Chapter 345: Welles' Admonition
The reason why the night elves made such a fuss today was also due to Sharlayan's contribution to the flames.
It was he who encouraged Jarod Shadowsong to return to Nordrassil, and it was he who instructed Fandral Staghelmet to secretly guide the night elves and the people to open up the situation.
But Sharlayan really didn't expect that the conservative faction headed by Malfurion and Tyrande, and the reformist faction headed by the Shadowsong sisters and Staghelmet would make such a big disturbance.
This cannot be instigated by Sharlayan's words alone.
In the final analysis, it was because the night elves already had relatively large hidden dangers, and Sharlayan's behavior was only used as a fuse to ignite the conflict.
Maiev and Tyrande have a long-standing dispute over the leader of the moon goddess priestess, which was temporarily subsided by Maiev's voluntary concession ten thousand years ago.
But this contradiction will not be completely eliminated, but it will become more and more prominent under the exaggeration of Tyrande's "rule of inaction" year after year.
The priests of Elune missed the aggressive and decisive Maiev Shadowsong more and more, and felt more and more uncomfortable with Tyrande's incompetence.
Especially after witnessing the development of the distant relative Quel'dorei, who was exiled from Kalimdor, to such a prosperous scene today, Kaldorei, who has always believed that he is the orthodox elf, will inevitably have a psychological gap.
They took it for granted that the source of the stagnation of the night elves' development was traced back to Tyrande.
And it's not wrong, it's true.
The radical Staghelmet had proposed many reform proposals before, but most of them were ruthlessly rejected by Tyrande.
It is true that many of the proposals put forward by the young and energetic Lu Helmet seem fraught, but they are not without merit.
If there is a mature and prudent senior senior to help him correct the gaps in the plan, and the two sides cooperate and complement each other, the night elf society will not remain the same as it was ten thousand years ago.
Sharlayan is not yet sure what kind of cremation the two factions with diametrically opposite positions will have in the end.
Maybe they will compromise with each other and end peacefully, or they may fight like Valeera said, until one side completely overwhelms the other before the winner is determined.
This is the internal affairs of other countries, and it is not easy for Sarlayan to interfere too much.
He planned to find an opportunity to chat with Staghelmet during the conference, so that he could restrain the most radical Maiev Shadowsong as much as possible, and try to limit the conflict between the two sides within a certain range, at least not to break out of a full-scale civil war.
After talking about the international situation in Azeroth, Welles turned the topic back to Quel'Thalas.
After the battle to defend Quel'Thalas more than 2 years ago, the old nobles who followed Dath'Rema to the east were hit hard, and the nobles who rose up in the war of trolls began to rise gradually .
A typical example is the Deep Shadow family headed by Welles, and Valeera's nominal uncle, Baron Sangunar.
Although it has not been clearly announced, these two most representative noble families of the Royal Party should be mentioned after Prince Kael'thas succeeds to the throne.
Due to the special position of Welles, his official position is not easy to be promoted, and there is a high probability that the title of the Deep Shadow family will be promoted to earl.
And Baron Sangunar should also be promoted to Viscount and get further official promotion.
In addition to Deep Shadow and Sangunal, there are many honorable families who performed well in the defense of Quel'Thalas, and they will also be rewarded for their merits. Compensation and encouragement from the nobility.
From the perspective of the Sun Chaser royal family, they don't want Xinxing Xinggui to be the only one, and that will only repeat the mistakes of the four great nobles covering the sky with one hand.
The way of balance is a subject that every king needs to focus on learning. Whichever side is weak, the Sunstrider royal family will support that side. It is best to keep the power of both sides in the court in balance.
In the words of barrage, involution can stimulate the enthusiasm of both parties.
When Anasteria was young, the traditional aristocrats headed by the four great aristocrats were so powerful that they even used the Silvermoon Council to take away his authority as the Sun King.
This is intolerable for any king.
That's why Anasteria will support those emerging nobles who have made great achievements in the war of trolls, and let them stand up to fight the old nobles and curb their arrogance.
This process lasted for thousands of years. Because of the deep-rooted and huge influence of the four nobles, the old king's efforts have always had little effect.
As the saying goes, there are unpredictable things, as the internal talents of the four major nobles withered, they had to support their cronies in the Silver Moon Council, but they happened to meet Darkan Drahir, an ambitious white-eyed wolf who was born in a small noble.
Under the betrayal of Darkan, the "pig teammate" and the thunder of the Sun King seizing the opportunity of war, the four nobles finally bowed their proud heads to the royal family, and the era of the old nobles covering the sky with one hand came to an end.
After gnawing down this hard bone that lasted thousands of years, the old king, relieved, finally decided to lay down the burden to take care of his life, and handed over Quel'Thalas, which was waiting to be done, to the hands of Prince Kael'thas.
In the past two years, under Anasteria's precept and example, Prince Kael'thas, who has worked hard to absorb knowledge and experience, has made rapid progress, and has initially shown the appearance of a pioneering king.
How to balance the contradictions and disagreements between the emerging nobles and the traditional nobles, and how to skillfully use the opposition between the two sides to form a tendency of involution will become a long-term issue that Kael'thas will face after he succeeds to the throne.
Because of the special position of Welllas, the Deep Shadow family has always shown the behavior of a lone minister, and has never formed a party with any force for personal gain.
The Backlighting Blade is the most important intelligence department of Quel'Thalas. It holds a large amount of secret information at home and abroad. It must and can only be in the hands of the royal family, otherwise there will be new disturbances in Quel'Thalas.
Welles sees this very clearly, no matter who is in power, his position will not change in any way.
But this is the position of the Deep Shadow family represented by Welles, and Julian... or the offshoots of the Sarlayan family are not bound by this rule.
Welles said to Sharlayan earnestly: "Although the Sun King and the prince value you very much, I don't want you to be spoiled because of this."
"We are always courtiers, don't obscure our identities because of the trust of the monarch."
"If you plan to officially enter the core class of Quel'Thalas, remember to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and get rid of those frizzy habits in the past as soon as possible."
Welles said with a half-smile: "Those old fritters who have been struggling in the officialdom for many years are submissive in the face of external powerful enemies, but they can strike hard in internal struggles."
"If you are not careful, you may fall into the trap of those old foxes. You must be extremely vigilant and don't trust the good intentions of any 'colleagues'."
Sharlayan nodded solemnly: "I will, I just want to do some practical things for Quel'Thalas, and I don't plan to participate in those boring political struggles."
Welles sighed, and patted Sharlayan on the shoulder heavily: "Believe me, it's not that easy. I just hope you can always stick to your original intention and don't be led astray by that dirty big dye vat."
"Forget it, let's not talk about these heavy topics."
Welles changed the subject, got up and took a few pieces of paper with recorded text from the bookshelf.
"These are investigation reports about your fief. All I can say is... Be mentally prepared first. It's not that easy to build up your fief."
...
The Viscount fiefdom of Sharlayan is near Zul'Aman, the capital of the forest trolls.
That is to say, in the past few years, the Amani trolls have been hiding in the city with their tails between their tails and dare not go out easily. If it had been a few years earlier, this place would have been the front line of a proper battle for territory and a small-scale war.
In the northern part of Eversong Forest, the territory near Silvermoon City has already been sealed off.
Sharlayan had already guessed that his fief would be in the southern part of the forest, but he didn't know why the old king chose his fief here.
After bidding farewell to Welles and returning to Sharlayan's small study, Valeera asked thoughtfully, "Could it be that the Sun King wants you to completely destroy the Amani trolls?"
"Um……"
Sarlayan thought about it: "Maybe there is this layer of consideration, but there should be other deep meanings in it."
"look here."
Sharlayan tapped a point on the map with his finger, and the place where the finger landed was the Farstrider camp.
"My fief is right between the Farstrider camp and Zul'Aman. The Tower of Morning Star and Deep Shadow Manor in the rear are both the Deep Shadow family...that is, the fief of Uncle Welles."
"If you connect this line in series..."
Sharlayan extended his finger to the north of the forest, and Valeera froze for a moment.
"The Far Traveler's residence and... the territory of the Sangunar family, this..."
