Lux's Magic Penetration Rod
Chapter 550 【0544】 The Two Faces of Kalya
The Parliament of Nobles is the theoretical highest authority in Demacia, and although the royal family has an unparalleled status, in the final analysis it is only a member of the Parliament of Nobles - a strong king can control the Parliament through nobles who are loyal to him, while a weak king can The contradiction between aristocratic power and royal power has always been the main contradiction within Demacia's ruling class.
When the conflict between the two sides was at its most intense, Demacia almost even had a civil war.
Of course, everyone knows that due to the detached status of soldiers as "reserve nobles", there has never been a real civil war in Demacia historically.
Therefore, the most intense form of conflict that ever existed between the royal family and the nobility was when one of the parties issued an ultimatum.
This is a special state that seems serious, but just "looking" is not enough to describe its seriousness. This represents the serious distrust of the king by the noble council.
The last time the Council of Nobles issued an ultimatum was during the reign of Jarvan III's great-grandfather, Mewpus V. The main reason for the ultimatum was that the ambitious king wanted to abolish the private army of the nobles in order to strengthen He controlled the army and held the promotion channels within the nobility in his own hands.
This complete withdrawal of personnel power directly aroused resistance from all the nobles. The noble assembly issued an ultimatum. Either Mupus V gave up his foolish ideas and stopped challenging tradition, or everyone might have to send troops to Luo. I have made a clear statement of my interests and established a new master.
It was a turbulent and chaotic time, and although Mupus V's plans seemed to be beneficial to the military, in the end the army sided with the Council of Nobles.
The king finally surrendered because he lost the support of the army, and finally died of depression at the age of forty-two. The next king who succeeded him did not continue to use the title of Mupus VI and changed his name. For Jarvan I, he declared complete reconciliation with the nobles.
Perhaps it was because the ultimatum of the Noble Council caused turmoil in the military, and the pressure from the military forced Muse V to lose his power. After Jarvan I came to power, he intensified his attack on the Illuminati and tried his best to win over the military. , he imitated the sages and always charged forward in every battle, striving to look more like a general who could lead his soldiers to victory rather than a king hiding in the castle of dawn.
Jarvan I's strategy worked well at first, but just when he gradually gathered his military morale and began to look for opportunities to complete his father's unfinished business, the famous Battle of Mourn's Gate broke out.
In that battle, Jarvan I died at the hands of Thane, the Hand of Noxus at the time, and the fortress across the mountain from Demacia's southeastern side and Noxus' Stryville was officially renamed the Gate of Mourn.
It was the sacrifice of Jarvan I that allowed the royal family to once again gain the full support of the military. He was regarded as one of the army's "own men". Although he died in battle, it also contributed to the subsequent reign of Jarvan II and Jarvan III. During this period, the foundation was laid for the prosperity of Germany.
On the frontal battlefield, Thain almost broke the formation alone, but it still did not prevent him from being respected.
It is no exaggeration to say that the sacrifice of one king and the hard work of two generations of kings can bridge the problems caused by the ultimatum issued by the noble council more than seventy years ago.
And now, because of some "possibly dangerous behaviors" of Jarvan III, the Noble Council once again issued its own ultimatum - either convene a meeting of all nobles to clarify the current situation and explain clearly what is going on with the Illuminati. ; Or start a full-scale confrontation with the nobles.
No noble will be happy to see the next king of Demacia mixed with the Illuminati. The conflict between the noble council and the king is an internal conflict among the nobles; if the internal conflicts of the nobles bring nasty guys like the Illuminati into the political situation, or even give them power , then Jarvan III is Demacia’s eternal sinner!
Those magic sticks have indeed preserved a lot of Demacia's traditions and history, but this does not mean that the nobles are willing to separate some of the grassroots power in their hands.
No, not even a little bit!
Jarvan III was backed into a corner.
With a series of "overwhelming" coincidences, things developed completely beyond his expectations.
At this time, there is no point in blocking both sides. As long as Jarvan III does not want the entire kingdom of Demacia to come to a standstill, there is absolutely no way he will admit that he is considering cooperating with the Illuminati.
Before him, there were only two choices that would lead him to the dark and unknown road: either directly announce Jarvan IV's plan to reach the summit, promise that everything would remain unchanged after returning from the summit, completely abandon the Illuminati, and The nobles who put their hope in the Council of Nobles are fools and will believe this outrageous promise; or simply admit that there is something wrong with Jarvan IV, but the branch of the Crown Guard of Needlestream - at least Sentu II - will Lost his inheritance because of "collusion with the Illuminati."
Politics is the art of compromise. Even though Jarvan III is the king of Germany, he cannot speak the same words in Demacia as Lux does in Forsbarrow.
Soon, a highly confidential negotiation with a large number of participants began.
What they talked about in this noble meeting and what conclusions they reached were completely unknown to Kalya, and they could not find out.
But it doesn't matter anymore.
For Kalya, when things have reached this point, no matter what Jarvan III chooses, the cracks have already been planted.
From now on, there was only a semblance of harmony between the Council of Nobles and the Royal Family.
Considering that the relationship between the royal family and the Illuminati is not good, His Majesty Jarvan III is probably truly alone now.
Even if Jarvan IV returns from the summit, gains the status of a divine messenger, or even becomes immortal, this cannot be changed.
Kalya knows very well that a person alone can never achieve anything, and this has nothing to do with personal strength.
Even if Jarvan IV gains power comparable to that of the Protoss, and forces the nobles of the capital to "abandon their prejudices," he will not be able to change the existing order of Demacia, because this order is not based on a single individual. It is based on an extremely strong foundation, but derived from hundreds of years of development, tradition and accumulation since the founding of Demacia.
The powerful force can be said to be the same, but it cannot prevent people from obeying the law and violating the law.
However, as the royal family, Jarvan III and Jarvan IV were the ones who could not overturn the table. Any attempt to overturn the table would be a loss-so at the beginning, Jarvan III hoped to hide the truth and let everything become a fait accompli before informing the Council of Nobles. , causing the effect of a fait accompli.
Unfortunately, the move was one step away.
……………………
After confirming that the Noble Council held a special meeting, and that the first day of the meeting was quite unpleasant, Kalya finally took a long breath, and then chose to leave without any hesitation.
Like the worst child, he smiled and threw a firecracker at Xiongdu that could completely change the situation, making the atmosphere completely tense. Then he turned around and left. In order to avoid being affected, he even gave up observing the big event. An opportunity for a new pattern in Xiongdu after the explosion.
To be honest, this kind of "just give up when it's good" behavior is somewhat perverted.
As the executor of the entire plan, Shyvana had no idea what Kalya was doing at first and was just following orders.
It wasn't until she gave away the sword that Shyvana finally understood that Kalya was destroying the relationship between the royal family and the nobles.
After gradually coming back to her senses and understanding what her previous actions meant to the country, Shyvana felt a subtle sense of shame - in the eyes of Miss Dragon, whose mental age was probably not yet puberty, The world is still black and white, and she is obviously not used to Kalya's change of face.
Therefore, Miss Julong couldn't bear it and wanted to talk to her teacher.
However, just as Shyvana spoke, Kalya directly announced that what she had to do in the capital was over, and she could start her return journey!
All the words Shyvana managed to brew were stuck in her throat.
Just...leave now?
For a moment, Shyvana, who had previously felt sympathy for the nobles who had been tricked, even had the idea of "I really want to see how things develop." After realizing this, Shyvana's entire Dragon City shocked.
Do you actually still have such a side to yourself?
Am I an evil dragon?
"Don't blame yourself too much, Xiao Xixi." Facing the silent Shyvana, Kalya's tone was as relaxed as ever, "Actually, you are right. If this method is possible, you should not rely too much on it - -Actually, if Jarvan III hadn't been so bold and suddenly took a gamble at this time, I wouldn't have adopted this method."
"..."
This tone of "I struck too hard because you had a plan first" made Shyvana feel a little subtle. During this trip to the capital, Kalya's performance was completely different from the Kalya she had remembered in the past. , in Shyvana's understanding, her teacher is a humorous and kind person, he is knowledgeable and broad-minded, and he will not have any prejudice against a person or a dragon because of their origin.
And, just as Kalya once promised, Fosbarrow will walk on the road of unity, and anyone who is willing to abide by the order of Forsbarrow will embrace tomorrow here.
But it seems that in his eyes, the nobility, royal family, and Illuminati of Xiongdu are not worthy of having a tomorrow.
"It's a science to know who is a friend and who is an enemy." As if aware of Shyvana's doubts, Kalya cheerfully explained, "About this part, it will be the first time you return to Fu. The main course after Sparrow.”
"You seem to be very skilled in these methods?" Shyvana flapped her wings and asked curiously, "Is it also because of Shurima?"
"Yes." Karya has nothing to hide, "Sometimes, to achieve difficult goals, you really need some special means."
"You look completely different than you usually do."
"A lot of people say I have two faces."
Although Shyvana is very curious about what Kalya's "two faces" are, the biggest advantage of Miss Dragon compared to Lux is that she can easily control her curiosity-perhaps because the dragon has a long lifespan Because of this, she is always calm and unhurried. Even if she is very curious, she will not act too eager.
In fact, Kalya's "two faces" are the two different roles he played in the establishment and development of Shurima.
After gaining the trust of the tribe from Shurima, who was still a grassroots team, Kalya became the teacher of children and the early enlightener of civilization; he was also a cunning and cruel dog-headed strategist.
This directly led to the fact that in the folklore of Shurima, the image of the God of Death borrowed a lot from Kalya...
Whether it's the mask of Death, the iconic tall figure of Death, or the legends that "The God of Death doesn't care about the nagging last words" and "The God of Death likes those whose burial objects are more valuable", they all have something to do with Kalya.
This is not considered black history, but it is indeed a past event that Kalja does not want to mention. In that era when everything was ignorant, the rising Shurima needed to be more barbaric than barbaric. As one of the few intellectual factions in the tribe, Kalja Ya naturally needs to "do as the Romans do," and use the pitiful conditions at hand to help Setaka plan for the future.
However, this was not Kalya's original intention. Although he almost got lost in the conspiracy and turned into a mouse accustomed to hiding in ghosts, in the end he successfully came out and had a life in Shurima. After the basic plan, the main energy was put on the subsequent construction of the empire.
At this point, the Shurima Death God has become a long-standing legend, and people have gradually become accustomed to the slightly eccentric but highly respected Prince Regent and President of Shurima University.
The actions that caused trouble in the capital gave Kalya a rare look back at his past self. Now that his goal has been successfully completed, the DEBUFF has been hung on the enemy's head, so next, he can finally put the DEBUFF on his head. All the energy went back to the development of Forsbarrow.
Well, counting the time, Lux's winter speech this year has ended, and preparations for the spring speech are about to begin.
Although due to the redeployment of manpower and the absence of Kalya, the progress of the Archon's construction of the canal and the connection between the Meilan River and the Yinlin River has been slowed down, but I think the people of Forsbyro will be happy to hear Lux lead the team. A story about beating up the Freljord barbarians, right?
Sure enough, compared to the intrigues and intrigues of the capital, Fosbairo, with its simple folk customs, is more comfortable!
Moreover, there should be news coming back from Ino soon. If everything goes well, next year, the new port outside the city of Forsbarrow will also start to build a professional wharf. By then, Forsbarrow will There is once again a huge manpower gap. Considering that the price of fur is declining and the cultivation of fragrant red sage can also be started on a trial basis, when the dock is first built, the manpower should be able to barely support it...
After freeing his brain from the conspiracy, Kalya was almost immediately immersed in the development plan for Forsbarrow - so, before Sivana took him back to Forsbarrow, Kalya proposed After meeting the request for a stopover, we had to go to the canal construction site first.
hope everything is fine!
Kalya's Little Classroom: Demacia's Struggle:
Compared with Noxus, which kills entire families next door, the political struggle in Demacia is quite mild and has aristocratic characteristics. It is not only a struggle for power, but also a game that only nobles are qualified to participate in - said people That said, even in political struggles, Demacia has a higher bottom line most of the time.
