Chapter 374 Non-My Race

After the routine kingdom meeting, the glorious Queen, under the protection of the court knights, returned to the hot spring tower in a sedan chair. She usually enjoyed singing and dancing and tropical fruits there, leaving her son and a group of nobles to handle endless affairs. Norman, as her number one minister, had to rush back to the Dragon Cave from the White Tower to receive the heavy documents for the next day. Fortunately, Prince Istel needed to study with him.

The Eastman Kingdom has never been a king's one-man rule. The aristocratic parliamentary system ensured the stability and integrity of the kingdom in a special period. It was regarded by historians as the most worthy of history after the conquest of Mottog by the previous kings. But when they used their slender pen tips to offer praise, they probably wouldn't have expected that this would become the beginning of the decline of the kingdom.

Everything is because the Queen "sets by example", Norman believes that the noble parliament system never excludes the monarch. In fact, the Queen presides over every cabinet parliament, and she participates in the birth and implementation of any law and decree, and the replacement of noble titles is also agreed by her - this is how it should be, but now the Queen spends more time in the gardens in the suburbs than on the throne, let alone participate in government affairs. It can be seen that every time Norman asks her to look at the newly drafted bill or decree, Flavia wants Marian to stamp her. She is even unwilling to point her fingers.

In any case, Frevia Wiggins, as the queen, fulfilled her necessary responsibilities. She did not care about the dispute between the royal party and the princes. She only chose the party with the most votes in the plan for political affairs, and her daily affairs were simply handed over to the Minister of Government, Lawrence Norman herself. If the former king was still alive, Norman was not dissatisfied with Queen Frevia. She was a beautiful lady, gentle and cute, and never planned vicious ideas to fight for power and status... But the queen needed majesty and strength, instead of putting the royal power behind hot springs and fruits.

Of course, for the royal party, Frevia's biggest flaw is not the ability to govern the country, but the fact that she is weak and incompetent, she also relies on a powerful and powerful family behind her. Sir Norman could not trust Tracy Wiggins, and probably Easter would not relax his vigilance against his powerful aunt. Therefore, the prince hopes to use the power of the Silence School. The Alliance of Oathkeepers and the Silence School are both uncontrollable weapons, which has always made Norman feel very uneasy. Sure enough, this uneasiness has finally reflected to reality today.

It was raining outside the window, and the glass was covered with a layer of cold mist. Norman stared at the colorful weaving paintings hanging on the brocade, and the current political documents he brought with him were just a stack of white paper scattered on the table.

When his patience was almost exhausted, Easter finally opened the door. There was no expression on His Royal Highness's face that should not have appeared, but Norman could still feel the hidden anger under the calm.

"Come in." The prince ordered.

"You shouldn't lock the door." Sir Norman blamed, "Dragon Cave is Eastman's palace, and the door should be guarded by guards. Where is Sir Valin?"

"I drove him away."

But at this moment, the patrol captain of the court knight broke in. "Your Highness... Lord Lawrence."

"Look, that's what I'm worried about." Easter Talbot turned his head and said to Norman. "Don't tell me you're here to ask for leave, Varin. Tell me if you have something to do."

"Yes, Your Highness. My people saw that Lord Lion had just left the White Tower and came to Dragon Cave to find Lord Ravenus."

"Hmph, he will look for her sooner or later." Easter complained, "Let your people stay away from them. You two lords ask you to do whatever you ask you to do and report to me when you come back tonight."

"Yes, Your Highness." Varin hurriedly closed the door. The nephew of the Chancellor of the Exchequer was afraid of Norman as he was afraid of his mother's teachings, and the former was not happy about it.

"What's wrong with you, sir? I'm going to lock the door."

He is the future monarch of the kingdom. Norman thought to himself, firm and decisive, full of wisdom... but he has not matured to the point of being invisible with joy and anger. Well, my requirements have always been in line with the standards of the previous kings, but a hero like him once in a century, even if he is a descendant of his bloodline, there may be no match for him. "It is related to the Knights Bay, Your Highness."

"The fact that the alliance dog bites? I'm not deaf." This important news was the main course in today's noble parliament, and this time Istr was not absent.

If it were the news of the Gulf War, Sir Norman couldn't help but think. Now Easter is annoyed by this, and his new news will not make him happy.

"It's related to the Silence School," said Norman. "The lion was assassinated in the Bay. Since the war report occupied most of the communications, we didn't know that this happened until now."

"That lion is back for this? It's not the wizard." He used a tone of affirmative statement. "He is going to ask His Excellency Ravenus for an explanation?"

"It seems to be so. But from our perspective, there is no reason for the wizard to assassinate the Tower Messenger."

Ister turned around, "You mean the old hatred of the mysterious realm?"

"The lion will not come back alone. Helen, the witch of fate, is not a mystery in the war rank, and it is even more dangerous to leave her behind." Norman said patiently, "The lion does not think that this is the work of the Silent School, so he will return to Iron Claw City. Don't forget that Chloita advocates being cautious. If the school intends to start a war with the tower, the astrologers will probably predict it in advance and will not leave any chance for the enemy. Obviously, the lion just believes that the assassin has something to do with the Silent School."

"It has something to do with the Silence School." The prince repeated. He looked out the window restlessly, "Is it a black wizard?"

Norman knew very well why Easter was so worried. "Northodox wizards are not all from the Silence School... but we must be wary, and any coincidence is worthy of attention at this time."

"It's not a coincidence. There is no doubt that Laurent Wigg has betrayed us. This damn bastard promised me that he would secretly control the situation in the Knights Bay, but in fact, he used his trick to toss the Bay apart." The prince raised his voice unconsciously, "The civil war of the Oath Guardians, or on Eastman's territory? He's so crazy!"

"He may not care about Eastman." Sir Norman pointed out, "The Dark Wizard has no loyalty. Perhaps the Lion left the Knights Bay because he noticed the black witchcraft. His Excellency Shania is the leader of the Silence School. He wanted to find out if anyone was making trouble later, and asked her directly that it was the most efficient method."

"Don't they consider the revenge of the tower?"

He still didn't understand, or refused to accept the reality? Sir Norman could not say that he was more worried about the situation of His Royal Highness. "Maybe they felt that the blood clan would protect them, from the beginning."

The Black Wizard is easier to master than the Silent School, and Norman knew that the prince would never let this force go. Earlier, he used the Black Wizard to block the tower, allowing the lion to search in the Iron Claw City to arouse the dissatisfaction of the nobles of the royal capital, so that the royal party would implement a bill that tends to be Silent School in parliament to pass smoothly. The Black Wizard completed this task very simply, and even Norman was blinded by their decisive provocation of the Tower. The Royal Party thought that he had held a sharp blade, but was cut by it in turn: the outbreak of the Gulf War proved that the Black Wizard was indeed not trustworthy.

"Vampires will be defeated in war."

"But they have already taken the lead now. The warships of the Oath Guardians Expedition to Grey-winged Bird Island were destroyed. In any case, the Vampire temporarily delayed its death time. Does Count Hearn in the Bay respond? Your Highness." Norman asked knowingly. He did not agree with the use of the Black Wizard, but never showed it in front of the prince. Compared with the mysterious fulcrum, such a small organization can indeed be used by itself...but it needs to choose a suitable target.

Ister was angry when he mentioned him: "You can't imagine what he did."

The news that Dalton Shadow Tooth Nassanel participated in the rebellion made him furious. The girl sent to the Bay by the Royal Party was not used for Laurent Wigg as a bitch. But Norman also had to admit that neither he nor Easter expected that Dewet would have a good impression of Ingrid. When he was in the capital, Dewet hated half of his alien bloodline the most.

"It's over, so I have to send someone to search. Dewett is the Earl of the Bay after all, and if it is done properly, we may not have to risk the second Laurent Wigg," Norman persuaded.

The prince thought for a moment and then recognized the method of the leader of the royal party. "Okay, anyway, he is just a strange night elf, not my race, and even Gao Huan is not trustworthy. Humph, I want to say that such a person who betrays the lord for a woman cannot be considered a court knight at all."

The night elves are not humans. Their value for their partners is human, especially the nobles cannot understand. Sir Norman thought. I am afraid that in the eyes of the prince, Dewet does not belong to humans, and his trust is limited. This is very good. "I will notify Dewet before the Four Leaf Duke gives him a bad idea. I hope you are satisfied, Your Highness."

"I'm satisfied to let the Swearers League and the Vampire get out of Eastman," said Easter.

Norman could only pretend not to hear it. "We can't intervene in the Gulf War, so let the mysterious realm deal with it. There are more important things in the kingdom, such as the flood in Six Finger Fort."

"I remember there was a dam blocking the flood there. And now it's Frost Moon, what big problems can happen to the Golden Bird River?" The prince waved his hand impatiently, "Forget it, tell me the details."

"In fact, we can't get any news about Six Finger Fort right now."

"What's going on?" Easter became solemn.

I also want to know the reason, Norman thought. "Isbon Glognon seemed to have blocked the Six Finger Fort, and the Nightingale did not reply. The wizards controlled the staircase, and our contact with the Flowing Water Court was temporarily interrupted. I had asked His Excellency Ravenus in advance, and the answer she gave was that the mysterious place appeared in Six Finger Fort."
