Chapter 351: Suleiman's Troubles
When Jerimes died, all the "towns" and "protectors" in the Topka palace felt it.
Suleiman the Magnificent, Grand Vizier Ibrahim, Chief Preacher Muhammad and Chief Justice Rutfei, they all gathered.
"Really, every time that preacher reaches the core level or even approaches Zhenguo, then his students are already suppressed one by one to the point of madness, and then all kinds of cannibalism"
"These mages have countless excuses not to participate in the public war, but they are not afraid of private fights for power and interests."
Neither the chief preacher Muhammad nor the chief justice Rufit were mages, and of course they were free to complain.
"It's tradition." Although he is also not a mage, as a hardcore of the Sultan of Mystra and the Grand Prince Mustafa, the Grand Vizier Ibrahim is excusing the goddess of magic, "It's not okay to disrespect tradition." ”
Ibrahim is actually a changemaker, which is inconsistent with his usual position.
"Tradition? Ibrahim Pasha, now you remember traditions? Muhammad, the chief preacher hated change, "Do you want to abolish the glorious traditions of the Ottoman Empire since ancient times?" ”
The attitude of the justices was similar.
He has been pushing for the abolition of the Ottoman Empire's original system of "canon" succession, in which the ascending sultan killed all his brothers in favor of primogeniture, which is more widely used around the world.
"Ibrahim is right, this is not only a tradition but also a convention, a sacred covenant between the Lord of the Stars and the Goddess of Magic, and we cannot ignore it." Suleiman the Magnificent, however, spoke up in favor of Ibrahim.
Suleiman the Magnificent's words seemed to be hinting, causing the two chief representatives of the conservative forces of the Ottoman Empire to exchange a worried look at each other.
The Missionary's inheritance has always been criticized for being extremely emotional and irrational, but since the Goddess of Magic is willing, no one else can control her.
In fact, Suleiman the Magnificent and Ibrahim knew a little more, in fact, the Sultan of Mystra also had a great headache about this inheritance but could not give up.
The previous Goddess of Magic had been severely injured by Cirikan and Demogogan and had been expelled from this plane, and the current Sultan of Mystra was just a remnant of the powerful existence of the beginning.
There is not much power left over from the original Goddess of Magic's heyday that can be used by this half-goddess, and the power inheritance of the Missionary Mage is one of the few legacies that can ensure that she has at least one "core" assistant.
Although Dionysius is still only an "elite" for the time being, he can quickly reach the "core" by teaching spells and then gaining enhanced abilities.
This method of inheritance can barely be regarded as a disadvantage when the goddess of magic is extremely powerful, and can effectively expand the mage's fighting and belligerent nature, and select brave agents.
This method is obviously unwise in today's situation, and the already extremely fragile mage group is even more depleted because of this system.
However, the Sultan of Mystra did not dare to change it at all, it was already extremely difficult for her to reluctantly inherit according to the original rules, and if she wanted to change the rules left by the powerful divine power at the beginning, it was far beyond the ability of the current half-human and half-god Sultan Mystra.
Of course, if the power of the Ottoman Empire is poured, there must be a way, but any monarch of the Ottoman Empire would not do this as long as he did not go crazy.
The alliance between the Goddess of Magic and the Ottoman Empire is extremely fragile, and although the Goddess of Magic is not the one who was driven out of this plane in the first place, there are too many fundamental contradictions between her, her church and the Ottoman Empire.
This time, the timing of the change of the preacher was even more good, and even Suleiman breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the caliph of the top power at that time frightened many people, he himself was not really without troubles.
The caliph turned around and saw Ibrahim bow to him, thanking him for supporting his political views.
The former slave was still respectful to Harry and never transgressed.
Suleiman loved him, and it was one of the things he cherished most in this world, friend, the only friend.
But it is not that there are no contradictions between friends.
Although his old friend is still respectful, his alliance with Mystra and Mustafa's mother and son has objectively caused an imbalance in the power of the Ottoman court.
Sultan Xurem now only has the ability to parry, and has no power to fight back.
Although she is only a mortal, her talent and charm are not inferior to that of the Sultan of Mystra, and she can compete with you back and forth.
The problem with Sultan Shrem is that her son, Prince Selim, is a complete rubbish compared to his eldest brother, Prince Mustafa.
The chief preacher and chief justice were disappointed in the drunken Prince Selim, who had been drunk all day long, and that Sultan Hurem had not been able to forge an effective alliance because of what the Prince Selim had done.
The two conservatives were strong, but they were not united.
Suleiman the Magnificent really had a headache, he felt a thorn in his back about the power of Mystra's mother and son, but it was not his intention to intensify the conflict, did he really want to pass on the throne of the empire to that drunkard?
Suleiman the Magnificent only hoped that Prince Selim would try to contain Prince Mustafa as much as possible, and this wish was more likely to be fulfilled with the change in the selection of the preacher.
The dead Jerimes was already extremely close to the eighth layer of the magic web, and was not only powerful, but also skilled in making nutrients, which was an important resource for the Sultan of Mystra to win over his supporters.
With his death, the efficiency of the production of nutrients will inevitably decrease, and while this will also weaken the Ottoman Empire, balance is paramount.
This was barely a small consolation for Suleiman, who had greater annoyances besides the imbalance of power in the court.
They are gathered today to observe the trajectory of the new satellite.
"Your Majesty, there must be a part of this new satellite that belongs to Spain." Justice Rutfeld reported, "According to the trajectory, there should be another controller. ”
"Austria?" Suleiman asked, this is the most likely.
"Probably not, Austria has satellites, I have data, it should be a country that did not have satellites in the past." Rutfee judged correctly.
"What other allies does Spain have, is it some Italian city-state, the Republic of Liguria has a strong high-end combat power, isn't they?" "Generalissimo Doria's strength is beyond doubt, but Doria shouldn't be able to go to the C-level plane now, this captured satellite is obviously not B-class, it should be C3."
This commercial city-state has a small population, but it still has some strength, so it is speculated to be a possible plane master.
"I'll have to do the math to make sure." Rutfee hesitated for a long time and finally said.
The Knights Hospitaller does not have satellites, and the relationship between Wu Xin and the Knights Hospitaller is very delicate, so the trajectory is complicated and cannot be confirmed for the time being.
That's bad enough, though.
All the Ottomans had extremely ugly faces, and this was the worst news for them.
"Damn it." Suleiman realized that because Jeremes was dead, he had lost first-hand information.
This is far from his only loss. (To be continued.) )
