Chapter 310 Regent
Before the leaders of various countries could speak, the princes and princesses of Lordaeron couldn't help but start adding insult to injury.
King Meow Meow (Prince of Lordaeron): "Brother, I didn't expect you to be such a person. You actually murdered my father for the throne! Wow, oh, yes, I will fight with you!"
Old driver (Prince of Lordaeron): "Brother, eldest brother, I didn't expect that even if the eighth brother and the ninth brother were playing with the shadow of the void, you, the darling of the Holy Light with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would also rebel."
Winter is coming (Prince of Lordaeron): "There's nothing more to say, brothers, let's send my eldest brother on his way together!"
The princes and princesses started yelling curses, and some were even ready to take action.
In their opinion, this matter was probably done by Godwin. After all, as the crown prince, he was the one who would benefit the most after the king's death. Based on the principle of solving crimes, whoever benefits is the murderer, so he probably didn't run away.
As for the doubtful points in this letter - well, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, the crown prince needs to be killed first so that everyone can have a chance to share power. If Godwin becomes the king, how about they?
After the princes and princesses finished cursing, the leaders of various countries also started to take offense.
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "Damn it! Godwin, you actually treated your father like this. For the sake of power and status, you don't even want honor!"
The dwarf blew his beard and glared angrily, with an attitude of indignation. Muradin had some reasons to be angry, because he was Arthas' master, often came to Lordaeron to live there, and he was friends with Tenaris.
Rodman and Falstad were relatively calm, "Prince Godwin, how do you explain this letter?"
The representatives of Gilneas and Stromgarde looked on with indifference as always and had no sense of presence.
Antonidas didn't say a word, but the hand holding the staff tightened, and his eyes looked at him like lightning, without feeling at all "old and weak".
As for players such as Murphy and Dalabengba, they naturally looked like they were watching a good show.
Godwin naturally couldn't take the blame and hurriedly denied: "It's not me! This letter must be a fake - yes, this letter is a fake. If I really wrote this letter, how could it be so easy? If it is found, the orcs will definitely destroy it after reading it. Since they have it with them, it can be seen that this letter is clearly framed by the orcs in order to cause unrest within the alliance."
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "But you did transfer the palace guards! How do you explain this?"
Godwin defended: "I just didn't expect the orcs to be bold enough to assassinate my father."
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "So you mean you are not too bad, but too stupid?"
As soon as these words came out, Godwin was stunned for a moment. Murphy listened on the sidelines and couldn't help but give a thumbs up. This problem of blocking both ends is really a bit clever. Being stupid is naturally nothing to ordinary people, but for a person who wants to inherit For the crown prince, this is a big problem.
Once Godwin accepts the blame, the legitimacy of his succession to the throne will immediately be questioned. The princes of Lordaeron may have already prepared a trap waiting for him to fall into it.
Godwin could naturally think of this and did not respond immediately. He was just thinking about how to defend himself when Varian spoke first.
Varian (Prince of Storms): "Everyone, let me say something! The death of King Tenaris is a tragedy that no one wants to see. My father also died at the hands of the orcs. I express my condolences to all the princes. Feel the same.
However, regardless of whether Prince Godwin did this or not, Prince Godwin was right about one thing. The orcs would leave the letter on the assassin for us to find, in order to hope for unrest within the alliance.
Maybe this thing is true, Prince Godwin did collude with the orcs, but the orcs were obviously not prepared to abide by the agreement, so they deliberately left the secret message with the assassin for us to discover.
Of course, there is also the possibility that Prince Godwin was framed, and all this was a conspiracy by the orcs to provoke civil strife.
We are still unable to determine the truth of all this, so in my opinion, we must escape from the orcs' conspiracy. Since the orcs want us to have internal unrest, we must ensure internal stability and unity no matter what. As long as this is achieved, The orcs' conspiracy will not succeed. "
As soon as Varian's words came out, everyone nodded. This was indeed true.
It's true that everyone wants to suppress Lordaeron, but they really don't want to cause chaos in Lordaeron.
In the Second Orc War, we are counting on Lordaeron, the big brother of the Alliance, to support the situation. If Lordaeron is really messed up, who will step up to top the tank then.
Godwin listened to Varian's words, but it felt like a bone was stuck in his throat, unable to swallow or spit out.
Varian's words seemed to smooth things over, and there was no problem with everything, but he directly characterized him as 'the person who might kill Tenaris', which made him nod or shake his head.
If you agree, it seems like you feel guilty, and if you don't agree, you are suspected of destroying the unity of the alliance.
He thought for a while and decided that he could not admit it even if he was killed at this time. Not only could he not admit it, but he could not even leave any room for being 'framed'. He had to fight to death that he was innocent.
Godwin (Prince of Lordaeron): "I definitely did not do this. I swear in the name of the Holy Light! I definitely did not collude with the orcs to murder my father. If I tell lies, let the Holy Light judge me. Bar."
These words still have some weight. The Holy Light is a symbol of justice and holiness. As a patron of the Holy Light, Godwin swears in the name of the Holy Light, so he still has some credibility.
Several of Godwin's close brothers also began to support him.
Augustus (Prince of Lordaeron): "I also think it makes sense. How could the eldest brother do such a thing? He is the person chosen by the Holy Light."
Alexander (Prince of Lordaeron): "Brother has definitely been framed. I believe him."
Valkyrie (Princess of Lordaeron): "You're right, the eldest brother is the 'Glory of the Holy Light'. People may make mistakes, but how can the Holy Light see the wrong person?"
These few are all from the 'Imperial Faction'. Unlike other players who are obsessed with seizing the position of the Lich King or wanting to make their own fortune, this group all hopes to establish the Empire of Lordaeron, and naturally does not want Lordaeron. Split.
At this time, the Barbarian King Conan spoke again.
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "If the oath is useful, why do you need a judge? The Holy Light can only judge whether a person's heart is righteous, but if the elder brother thinks that killing his father and king is a kind of justice, it is a necessary means. , then it is not considered a departure from the way of the Holy Light.
This letter is about reaching peace with the tribe. Perhaps in the eyes of the eldest brother, such peace is better than going to war with the orcs. It can avoid war and death. For this reason, he will not hesitate to kill his beloved father. Perhaps in his opinion, this is actually a spirit of sacrifice.
Am I right, brother? "
As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Godwin wanted to scold her no matter how well-educated he was. Did you interpret it this way?
He stared hard at his twelfth brother, and Conan the Barbarian King did not disrespect him. He looked at him with an expression on his face that he would just do it if he didn't accept it.
However, when it comes to suppressing Godwin, he is obviously not fighting alone.
Blainey (Prince Gilneas): "With all due respect, judging from the current situation, if Prince Godwin cannot escape suspicion, it would be best for him to hand over his power."
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "Yes, although Godwin may have been framed, as the most powerful kingdom in the Alliance, the kingship of Lordaeron must not be at risk at all. For the sake of safety, it is best Or put the power in the hands of a more suitable person - I think Alsace is very good, what do you think?"
Everyone said that of course you think Alsace is good. You are Alsace's master. If Alsace becomes king, it will undoubtedly be very beneficial to Ironforge.
Blackbeard (Commodore of Kul Tiras): "I think the fifth prince is better. The fifth prince made outstanding achievements in the battle to capture the naga. He is an excellent general. I have cooperated with him before. He is very king. Style.”
Antonidas (Archmage of Dalaran): "I think the third prince is more suitable. His magical talent in studying in Dalaran is amazing, and he is full of reason and wisdom. If he is the king, , we must be able to govern the country reasonably to the greatest extent.”
Godwin's lips were trembling with anger. It is the turn of outsiders like you to speak about the affairs of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
However, since I was suspected, I really didn't dare to offend these big guys rashly.
In fact, the biggest problem is that there is too little unity within Lordaeron. There are more than forty princes and more than thirty princesses, and they are divided into three or four factions. Each faction has its own demands. Everyone wants to be in power. They have a piece of the pie in the game and cannot be integrated at all.
Otherwise, if everyone can unite as one, there will be no room for outsiders to interfere.
The only ones who are really aligned with him now are the princes of the imperial factions.
The top leaders of all the alliance countries are thinking about weakening Lordaeron. How to cover it up?
At this moment, a private message suddenly appeared in front of me.
Aidan: Brother Godwin, do you need any help?
Godwin was stunned for a moment.
Godwin: What do you want?
Aidan: I can support you on behalf of Alterac, and I can convince Varian to support you as well, but you have to show some sincerity.
Godwin: What do you want?
Aidan: Give me 500 knights, any knight will do, and I will guarantee your victory.
Five hundred knights! What a joke!
You must know that the entire Royal Knights of Lordaeron only has 5,000 people.
However, you can make do with miscellaneous knights such as feudal knights and chivalrous knights.
Godwin gritted his teeth and gave it.
Godwin: Okay, help me quickly and I’ll give it to you later.
Aidan: No, our family is weak and we can’t afford credit. Let’s sign a contract.
After speaking, an electronic contract was sent directly.
The content is very simple. Once Godwin becomes king, he must send five hundred knights to Murphy.
Godwin: ...
He couldn't help but wonder, could this guy have dug the hole? Even the contract is ready.
But when things came to this, he could only bite the bullet and sign the contract.
Seeing Godwin signing the contract, Murphy smiled slightly. Now the Dragon Knights could expand again, so he stood up directly.
"Everyone, please listen to me."
In the past, Alterac had little say in the alliance. It was even worse than the backgrounds of the Kingdom of Gilneas and Stromgarde. However, in today's grand military parade, the Knights of the Dragonstrike were very impressive. With the limelight, Murphy, the leader of the Dragon Knights, naturally has some say.
Everyone looked over.
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Obviously it is impossible to judge the authenticity of this matter, so don't worry about the authenticity of this matter. This letter says - to prevent the restoration of the Kingdom of Stormwind, and also To prevent Prince Varian from going to Northrend to find the artifact to defeat the orcs, he also has to negotiate peace with the tribe.
Tell me Prince Godwin, are you planning to do this? "
"Of course - no!" Godwin was furious in his heart, but his face had a sincere expression.
"I am full of sympathy for the people of Stormwind Kingdom. How can I prevent the restoration of Stormwind Kingdom? The previous transfer of Stormwind Kingdom's army and the seizure of warships were all my father's orders, although I did not know that he was motivated by What purpose, but I absolutely do not agree with him doing this.
Not only that, I also support Prince Varian in doing this. Today I also sent several warships to Prince Varian. Prince Varian can testify. "
Varian nodded, "Prince Godwin did send me several warships."
Godwin continued: "If I succeed to the throne, I will not only return the seized warships, sailors and soldiers, but I will also strongly support His Highness Varian's restoration plan. And I swear that I will be sworn in with the orcs and firmly support the formation of a coalition." We will go to war with the orcs, and I am willing to lead the Lordaeron army to the front of the battle line. The orcs' plan to provoke us will never succeed."
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Well said, considering that the truth of this matter may never be clear, I propose, as witnessed by everyone present, that from today onwards, Prince Godwin will serve as the regent of Lordaeron. The king temporarily takes over the power of the king.
As long as he completes supporting Prince Varian in searching for artifacts in Northrend, defeating the orcs, and helping the Kingdom of Stormwind to regain its kingdom - these three things will be regarded as fulfilling his oath, clearing his suspicion, and he can inherit the throne. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell into deep thought.
Especially representatives from various countries.
Their goal is to weaken Lordaeron without dividing it.
It is still very difficult to say, but if you accept these three suggestions from Murphy, then if Godwin wants to become the king, he must first defeat the orcs, and to defeat the orcs, he will naturally have to dispatch the main army of Lordaeron. Anyway, for Godwin For others, it is fine not to lose, but for Godwin, it is necessary to win.
This way you won't be afraid that he won't be able to contribute.
By then, Lordaeron's army will inevitably consume more and suffer more casualties. Countries will be able to use this to develop their strength and achieve a balance of power with Lordaeron.
Thinking of the exquisite calculations in these three suggestions, the person who reacted quickly had already made a decision.
The first one to agree was Varian.
Varian (Prince of Storms): "I don't want Prince Godwin to be that kind of person, so I agree with this resolution. As long as Prince Godwin can defeat the orcs, it will be enough to prove that he is not the one who colluded with the orcs."
Antonidas (Archmage of Dalaran): "If Prince Godwin can accept this offer and swear to complete the three missions, then I can give up the pursuit of King Tenaris' death."
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "I still think Arthas is more suitable to be king - but okay."
Everyone agreed.
Murphy looked at Godwin with a smile: "How about Prince Godwin, what do you think?"
Godwin was still a little unwilling in his heart. He was obviously a prince and could directly inherit the throne, but in the end he had to serve as regent for a few years. What a big deal. I spent hundreds of millions to buy the status of prince.
Although he can temporarily take over the power of the king, it is not as good as being a real king.
He was still hesitating, but his younger brothers and sisters gave up.
"If this must be the case, I am willing to accept this agreement. I will use the blood of the orcs to wash away the suspicion on my body. I will help the Kingdom of Stormwind regain its kingdom to affirm the justice in my heart."
Jon Snow (Prince of Lordaeron): "Damn, why? My eldest brother has obviously turned dark. Why don't you choose me as the king? I can also defeat the orcs!"
Elsa (Princess of Lordaeron): "That's right, Godwin, you are a white-eyed wolf. You killed your father, and you still want to be the king. What good things do you think of? We can never agree to this!"
Conan the Barbarian (Prince of Lordaeron): "Why don't we follow Alterac's example and set up a Prince's Council? We can't hand over power to a filial son like this who murdered his own father."
Winter is coming (Prince of Lordaeron): "I agree. Call back the third brother, fifth brother, seventh brother and twenty-eighth brother, and let us all have a meeting to vote."
However, in the face of the anger of the princes and princesses of Lordaeron, this time the leaders of various countries all sided with Godwin.
Since the purpose of weakening Lordaeron has been achieved, there is no need to press any more. If Lordaeron is really divided, it is not what they want. They are still counting on Lordaeron to fight the orcs.
Antonidas snorted coldly, "Why are you princes and princesses making such a fuss? This is a decision jointly made by representatives of all countries in the alliance. As the crown prince, Prince Godwin is qualified to inherit the throne, but because of the suspicion on him, he must make some decisions first. It’s just a test. You have no right to question this agreement. If you want to challenge the decision of the alliance meeting, then you are challenging the alliance’s throne and authority. Do you want to commit treason?”
Muradin Bronzebeard (King of the Hill): "That's right! The majesty of the Alliance cannot be blasphemed. Put your temper away. Your father never wants to see civil strife in the kingdom at this critical moment."
Rodman (Grand Magister): "Yes, yes, the overall situation must be the most important thing."
Seeing that the overall situation was settled, Antonidas, as an elder and the Speaker of Dalaran, had a transcendent status, so he stepped forward without hesitation. "What do you say, Prince Godwin, are you willing to accept this oath?"
Godwin glanced at his eager younger brothers and sisters, then at the representatives from various countries with different expressions, and sighed.
"I am willing to accept this oath."
Antonidas (Archmage of Dalaran): "Then Prince Godwin, now I declare that from today on, you will serve as the regent of Lordaeron, temporarily assuming the authority of the king until you fulfill your oath and become the true king. Before that, The crown of Lordaeron is kept by the Alliance Council."
Antonidas said, taking off the crown of King Tenaris.
Seeing the wound on King Tenaris' chest, Antonidas's eyes flashed with surprise. Although King Tenaris had several orc swords inserted into his body, it was obvious that the blow to the chest was the fatal wound.
But he didn't say anything. Wasn't there an orc sword master who was missing? It might have been the orc sword master who stabbed him. Who can tell for sure about this kind of thing.
He put the crown away calmly.
Everyone saluted Godwin together, and Godwin returned the salute with a forced smile. It seemed that the civil strife was settled.
