The most shameless alchemist in history - Chapter 883
Chapter 883
Even if Messiah really named Du Lei as cabinet minister, the latter would not accept it. After all, he was just an outsider and a young man.
If he can hold a high position in the Snow Country, it is the result of the compromise between the old and the new platoons in the Snow Country. He is the balance point of the two factions.
In addition, Du Lei’s hometown, Hot Spring Village, is actually within the scope of Snow Country, so he can be regarded as a local.
But for Numa Nation, he is an out-and-out foreigner. The noble ministers of Numa Nation will certainly not welcome Du Lei to the high position in Numa Nation, especially Du Lei helping Messiah. Successfully staying in the royal capital, this made the old nobles resent Du Lei even more.
Because without this guy, they would definitely hold important positions under the original system, but Messiah’s entry into the city of Ze, which allowed a new round of reshuffle of power, and the factions in the original river bay area , It must be reused.
These reasons make it very difficult for Du Lei to become a cabinet minister. In addition, he himself is unwilling to stay in the country for too long. On the one hand, he sent people to inquire about Lance’s whereabouts, and on the other hand, he speeded up the deciphering of Lance. The contents of the stele that Si left for him.
Of course, there is one very important thing to do, that is, he has to help Messiah stabilize the situation. Although he can’t serve as the cabinet minister of Numa no country, there is also an advantage, that is, he will not be in Numa anyway. After staying in the country for too long, he is happy to be a villain who offends others.
When the Messiah just entered the city of Ze, although the old nobles in the city had to accept the Messiah, they put forward quite a few harsh conditions, such as making Messiah give up the title of Duke of the Bay, etc. The attitude is very tough, and there is a great tendency for Messiah to resist, and they will resist to the end. This also makes Messiah especially embarrassed. After all, she can’t be such an iron-fisted figure.
But Du Lei was different. When he was the inspector-general in the Snow Country, he was notorious.
Now facing these aristocrats in Zezhicheng, Du Lei offered to talk to these aristocrats, and it took him two days to visit the aristocrats in Zezhicheng, but these were still open. The contradictory nobles are all submissive.
After another week, after confirming the legitimacy of the edict left by the previous king and receiving William’s support, it was finally determined that three days later, the Messiah’s enthronement ceremony would be the new term of Numa no Country. king!
There are many things that need to be prepared in the past few days. After all, the country of Numa has just experienced a turmoil, which can be said to be internal and external. It’s late at night.
In the middle of the night, she went to the terrace of the palace and wanted to take a good rest. At this time, someone was sitting here in advance.
There are not many people who are qualified to be here. To be precise, there is only one other than Messiah, and that is Du Lei.
“You look tired?” Du Lei asked softly when he saw Messiah approaching.
“I saw eight groups of people just today. It’s very difficult to remember their names, let alone anything else. It’s a lot of messy things. I’m so annoyed that I want to go back to River Bay. “The Messiah whispered, she had to guarantee her majesty in front of others.
But when she was in front of Du Lei, she didn’t have to think too much, whispering in a low voice, unlike her appearance in the daytime.
“You will soon be the first queen in the history of Numa Country, and at the same time, after the Frost Queen of Snow Country, the only remaining queen on the mainland. If others know your complaints, wouldn’t they be pissed off? “Du Lei said with a smile.
In the history of Snow Country, the queen has always inherited the throne, but with the previous changes in Snow Country, the royal family has been disbanded.
This also means that there will be no more queens in the Snow Country in the future, so Messiah has become the only new queen remaining on the continent.
“Du Lei, don’t laugh at me. I don’t know how to be a queen, and I don’t want to be.” Messiah glared at him.
“I don’t know how to learn slowly, and now you are also very popular.” Du Lei said jokingly.
“Where is it popular? Didn’t those nobles object to them before, or Du Lei, you negotiated with them and settled them, but Du Lei, what method did you use to make them submissive?” Mi Saiya asked curiously, she really didn’t understand the changes before and after the nobles.
“I didn’t do anything, just patiently reason with them.” Du Lei said with a smile.
“Huh? Reasonable? Those nobles don’t look like reasonable people. If they can make sense of reason, that’s really weird.” Messiah had a suspicious attitude, and she didn’t quite believe what Du Lei said. Sentence.
“Maybe they were in a better mood that day, so they listened to what I said?” Du Lei looked at her with a smile.
“I don’t believe you, but thanks to your help from Du Lei these days, otherwise I really don’t know what to do.” Messiah said gratefully, she knew very well that if it weren’t for Du Lei’s help, Ze Things in the city never went so smoothly.
“It’s just a trivial matter, why are you so polite.” Du Lei was not a person to take credit for it, and he didn’t take this to heart.
“Although you said that, Du Lei, I will take this gratitude in my heart.” Messiah said seriously.
“Tomorrow, you will be the queen of Zhao Zhiguo. What you have to keep in mind is the future of the swamp country. The times are changing, and you must have noticed it. The new power is impacting the old system, and the trend of history will Eliminate all stubborn and decadent forces.”
Du Lei looked at the Messiah and said softly, the moonlight was shining on the surface of the sea, and it was very clear from this position.
“But Du Lei, why don’t we abolish the royal family like Snow Country?” Messiah had previously discussed the possibility of disbanding the royal family in private with Du Lei, and she had no interest in the queen or anything.
Because once she became the queen, she would have to be nailed to the city of Ze, and it would be difficult to go to other places in the future.
“Because the conditions of the two countries are different, the conflict between the two factions in the Snow Country is very sharp, and they have gone through a long civil war. It is necessary to propose a truce acceptable to both sides, or it will be endless. The war of Numa may even split, but Numa is different. The transition of Numa is much smoother, and the emerging forces, namely the merchant forces represented by the river bay area, have the upper hand. To put it bluntly, Messiah You are a representative of a big merchant, not a representative of the old nobles.” Du Lei explained the difference between the two.
“In other words, I can only stay in the city of Ze in the future, and can’t go to other places, and can’t you go on an adventure with Du Lei?” Messiah said somewhat disappointed.
“This is the responsibility that falls on your shoulders. You need to bear it.” Du Lei looked at Messiah’s lost expression.
Girls like her should enjoy free time and travel around the world.
But she will be tied to this place at a young age, imprisoned in dreams.
For Numa no Kuni, it is a good thing that a moderate king comes to power, especially representing the interests of the business class.
But for Messiah, she lost a lot of things, which is not necessarily what she wanted.
“Responsibility, I understand, I’m very sorry, I was wayward just now.” Messiah said reproachfully.
“Perhaps one day when the times have reached a crossroads and the Numa Country is forced to make a new choice, Messiah, you can get rid of your shackles and live the life you want, right?” Du Lei whispered. Said.
“Is there really such a day?” Messiah’s eyes lit up, and she asked immediately.
“I think there is probably it?” Du Lei looked at the sky, and he was not sure whether that day would come.
The night is calm and calm, and for them, this moment is also silent.
The enthronement ceremony finally began after one night. Not only the nobles from all over the Numa country came to participate in the enthronement ceremony, but also the neighboring countries also sent representatives to participate. These countries have friendly relations with the Numa country. They came to congratulate one another, and two It is here to explore the style.
They need to know whether Numa no Kuni is as good as ever with them, and what strategies they will adopt to safeguard each other’s interests.
There is also a part that is at odds with the Numa country, and this part also wants to figure out what strategy the new king will follow.
This is a busy day for Messiah. She did not do it perfectly, and there are many shortcomings.
But she is a serious person, a hardworking person, and a person willing to learn.
She believes that even if she does not do well, she can avoid making mistakes as much as possible through studying and move towards perfection step by step.
Messiah is used all day to receive guests from various countries, and there is almost no leisure time.
Du Lei was not idle either, because there were also representatives of many countries who wanted to see him, and he couldn’t get rid of these people.
Because these people are his old friendships.
For example, Celia from the country of the mountain and the newly appointed foreign minister Zoron from the country of the mountain.
“Master Du Lei, long time no see, do you miss me?” After seeing Du Lei, Celia immediately stepped forward to greet him.
She and her elder brother Zoran came to the Messiah’s enthronement ceremony as representatives of the mountain country.
“Ahem, Celia, stop messing around.” Zoran had a headache when he saw his sister enthusiastically greet her.
“What kind of nonsense, Master Du Lei and I have a long relationship, maybe I will become Master Du Lei’s wife in the future.” Sai Liya took the initiative to take Du Lei’s arm and said seriously.
“Puff!” Zoran, who was drinking water, spouted out of water when he heard Sai Liya’s words.
“Oh, you can’t keep the image that your foreign minister should have, really a foolish brother.” Sai Liya looked at Zuoren disgustingly.
“I said Celia, I’m also your brother anyway, did you say that to me? And you are a girl, isn’t it shy to say this?” Zoron got a headache for his sister, he Handling all kinds of government affairs is nothing to say.
Only his baby sister is the existence he has the most headache.
“Shy? What’s shy? I said, brother, what age is this, girls should take the initiative to pursue the happiness that belongs to her, instead of staying in place and twitching, understand? By the way, you are all too old. It’s a shame not to talk about a girlfriend.”
Celia looked at her brother contemptuously.
“What are you talking about? Ashamed?” Zoran’s eyes widened, meaning Celia dared to say that to him.
If this is someone else, how dare you say this to him, the next helm of the mountain country?
“Yes, you should have been married long ago at your age, and turned out to be a bachelor. When I go back, I will introduce you some girlfriends.” Sai Liya confidently said.
“I don’t need to introduce you to this kind of thing, okay?” Zoran completely made Celia toss with no temper.
“If you don’t need to introduce me, can you find a girlfriend based on your ability?” Celia asked him back.
“What do you think your brother is so incapable of me… Really, Du Lei, let you see a joke, don’t take Selya what she said just now, she loves to joke very much.” Zuo Lun faintly Said with a sigh.
“What a joke, I’m serious!” Sai Liya tightened Du Lei’s arm and said.
“It’s okay, it’s not the first time I met anyway, I still know Celia very well.” Du Lei responded with a smile.
He knew that if he refuted, Celia would definitely continue speaking persistently.
So he might as well follow Celia.
“Du Lei, it’s great that you can understand.” Zoran said with a sigh of relief.
“Hey, isn’t this Celia? I haven’t seen you for a while, but you are getting more and more beautiful.” At this moment, a noble lady came over not far away. After saying hello to Zoran and Du Lei, she talked to Celie again. Ya speak.
“It’s Helen, I haven’t seen you for a long time, are you okay?” Sai Liya recognized that this was her good friend Helen.
“Then let’s talk over there, I’ll introduce a few friends to meet you.” Helen enthusiastically pulled Celia aside.
“Then Master Du Lei, I will meet some friends in the past, and I will come to you again!” Sai Liya said goodbye to Du Lei and followed Helen.
Du Lei and Zoran have been watching Celia go away.
“Selia is true, too, she’s so playful when she’s so big.” Zoran was very helpless about this.
“In fact, Celia is also very good. She is only… seventeen years old this year? She is already able to deal with various nobles proficiently. What were we doing when we were seventeen?” Du Lei recalled his own thoughts. At the age of seventeen, isn’t he still in a state of being frozen?
“Yes, Celia has only two months to turn 18 years old. After she is 18 years old, I will arrange some things for her to save her from messing around…” Zuolun said helplessly.
