Chapter 463: Conspiracy

There were three visitors, and Lieutenant Valrocar was one of them.

"This is Samuel Hawke, our quartermaster," said Varrocar, after a pleasant greeting, pointing to the middle-aged man on his left, who humbly saluted Diego, and the lieutenant then introduced the old man dressed as an elderly priest on the right, "This is Landulf Liddle, the deacon priest of the diocese of Arashi, please forgive us for coming late at night." ”

"It's an honour to have you here," Diego greeted them warmly, along with Huffman and Masrae, who were on the verge of falling asleep, "please sit down, in fact, I've been waiting for a long time." ”

The visitors all had surprised looks on their faces, but they sat down as calmly as they could, and looked at Diego secretly. To be honest, this saint was almost excessively young, and he looked like a child compared to the famous saints in history.

A few sword-wielding attendants brought hot tea to the guests and retreated, but not far, responsible for the safety of the saints.

"They are my most loyal guards, and if they can't be trusted, then I don't know who else to trust." Facing the guests who turned their heads to look at the attendants, Diego said with a smile.

The faces of the attendants facing the tent are full of excitement and pride, trust and loyalty are always mutual, without the support of trust, loyalty is like a castle on the beach, unable to withstand any wind and waves.

No longer dwelling on the fact that there were too many people in the tent, the visitors turned their heads and looked at Diego. Although there are only three people, these three people already represent the majority of the people in the three systems of military, logistics and religion in the Valley of Refuge, and they are full of weight.

"Rapids Castle is facing a major crisis right now, Your Excellency Saint, we need your help and support." Lieutenant Valrocar looked at Diego eagerly, and pleaded straight to the point.

"If you need to, I'm duty," Diego nodded, and he was willing to do something for these refugees in dire straits, "How can I help you?" ”

"Lead us back to Fort Riptide!" The lieutenant said impatiently.

"This ......" Diego muttered for a moment, he was a little embarrassed, because Riptide Castle is not leaderless, although their lord is unpopular, but after all, he is a royal orthodox, and he can't do anything to get around, "As far as I know, Prince Garin Torbain is the legitimate ruler of the kingdom, and it is the right that only he can exercise to wage war." ”

"Cut, that coward has already been scared out of the Syndicate and the ogre, so he won't go back to Riptide Castle." Probably because in private, Varocal no longer hides his contempt for Garin, and in fact, this is the attitude of most Arashi towards princes nowadays.

"Not only did he not allow us to support Captain Niaise fighting at Riptide Castle, but he also sold his war materiel to smugglers in exchange for a large amount of silk, spices, and dwarven wine for his own enjoyment, and if this continues, the soldiers will not even have enough weapons and armor to fight!" Quartermaster Samuel Hawke interjected.

"And because of the lack of medicines and spell materials, the sick refugees cannot receive timely and effective treatment, and if this continues, there will definitely be an outbreak of plague." Pastor Dolph said worriedly.

"So what if I lead you to attack Riptide Castle and His Royal Highness the Prince opposes it?" Diego asked sharply, given Garin Torbain's temperament, it was very likely that he would do so. If this happens, the Valley of Refuge will inevitably lead to infighting and eventually bloodshed.

"Then lock him up and release him when we reclaim Riptide Castle!" Varocal said angrily.

"Wait for him to come out and settle us?" Samuel scoffed.

"What then? Can you still kill him? Field Marshal Oslet could not have agreed to us doing this! ”

Diego no longer participated in their arguments, but remained silent on the sidelines, and when it came to this, it was no longer appropriate for him to say anything more. A coup d'Γ©tat is not in keeping with his identity, and once it gets out, what will his feudal king, King Varian Urien, think?

Several of the guests fell silent, frowning and pondering. In the end, it was Priest Randulf who looked at Diego in fear, and it was clear that even in his own opinion, what he was going to say next did not conform to the teachings of the Light, and then made his own opinion: "As far as I know, during the time when King Varian Ureon was missing and Prince Anduin was not old enough to rule, the Kingdom of Stormwind was regent by Duke Berval to handle state affairs. ”

"Huh?" Lieutenant Varrocar looked at him for some reason, wondering why he had suddenly brought it up. This has nothing to do with the current situation. But Samuel Hawk's eyes lit up all at once.

"You mean ......"

"Yes, that's what you think, since Prince Garin doesn't have the ability to govern the country, then we can ask Marshal Oslet to serve as the consul and act as the agent of the state, so that we don't have to depose His Royal Highness, and we don't have to worry that he will liquidate us after the war!" The old priest's thinking became clearer and clearer, and his emotions became more and more high, "We are just restricting his rights, and if Marshal Osletus does not agree to be regent, then we can also form a senate, and the senate will rule the country!" ”

Diego listened to him as he spoke, a smile growing on his face. Little did this wise old priest know that the system of government he proposed had a resounding name in Diego's previous life: Constitutional Monarchy! That is, on the basis of retaining the king, the power of the hypothetical monarch is replaced by the real power of the people! I have to say that this is the most suitable for the current politics of Arathi at this stage. The system is governed.

"I must remind you that apart from Garin Torbain, the royal family of Riptide is not without heirs, in fact, the nephew of King Sola Stolbane, General Dana Stolbain, is still alive, and he is now fighting the Burning Legion in Draenor, the home of the orcs." Diego said on the sidelines that he felt it was necessary to pour cold water on the excited people so that they could prepare themselves to face Danas in the future.

"Really?" Varocal asked, stunned.

"Really!" Diego said with certainty. He no longer had to explain his source of information to others, and his sainthood was the greatest guarantee of the credibility of everything he said.

The three of them fell silent again, which was good news, the heroic and just Dana Stolbain was the best candidate to inherit the throne in the hearts of the Arashi, but for them now, far from quenching their thirst, it became outright bad news, because under his prestige, no one dared to touch the rule of the Torbain family over the kingdom.

"So what? If Danas returns, we can just return the rule of the country to him, as Stormwind is now, better than having Garin as an idiot rule the country. Lieutenant Valrocal suddenly said loudly, he had had enough of the current half-dead situation, and if he was allowed to endure it, it would be better to let him die.

"So, Your Excellency, you'll support us, won't you?" The old and solemn Landulf raised his head and looked at Diego expectantly.

"I can't intervene in the internal affairs of the Kingdom of Riptide, but I will allow you to pacify the people in my name if you succeed, and I will participate in the battle to recover Riptide Castle in the future." Diego nodded and said. This is already the limit of what he can say, and the status of a saint gives him great convenience, but it also restricts him from being nonsense by his own temperament.

"That's enough! In the entire Valley of Refuge, there were not many people on the side of that coward. Valocar said confidently.

The three of them left excitedly, they wanted to strike while the iron was hot and make a more careful plan.

"Huffman, raise your alert level tonight, send scouts in the direction of the Valley of Refuge, and keep an eye on what's going on over there!" Diego instructed his captain of the guard, and he thought for a moment, then lifted the death gaze resting in his chair and patted the sleepy Night Elf lightly.

"Masrae, let's go get some muscles."

"Where to go, where to go?" The druid, who was still dazed, jumped up and asked excitedly. 2k reading web
