When Aurelia began to unveil tiles in Quel'Thalas, it was at the height of the power of the Silvermoon Council.

The old king Anastria was forced to keep his head in obscurity and send Prince Kael'thas away before he slowly settled with the great nobles.

The Windrangers are a hardcore royal party that has been loyal to the royal family since the founding of Quel'Thalas.

Their ancestor, Taranas Windranger, was knighted for his work in banishing the trolls of the Forest, and was given the longbow of Sardora, an artifact that had been soaked in the Well of the Sun, by the Sun King at the time.

Note that it is only a duke, not a hereditary archduke.

However, this does not seem to make any difference to the descendants of the Windranger family, as generations of Windrunner heirs have been able to defend the border for Quel'Thalas without being demoted.

This magical tradition continued until Leesa's generation, and the Windranger family finally produced a "strange man" whose behavior was incompatible with that of their ancestors.

It was Liresa's eldest daughter, Aurelia Windranger.

At that time, the Sunstrider royal family was engaged in a fierce power struggle with the Silvermoon Council, which was dominated by the great nobles.

Finally grasping the handle of the royal irons of the Windranger family, the then Speaker Darkan Delahir naturally used Aurelia's maverick as a breakthrough to lash out.

However, this is of no avail.

The Windranger family has never been interested in the political struggles of Silvermoon City, and as long as the Sun King continues to trust them, the Windranger family's position will never waver.

Anastria saw very clearly, if the Windranger family was taken, who would guard the borders for Quel'Thalas, and fend off the murderous trolls who had a deep vendetta against the High Elves?

As long as the Windranger family does not violate the interests of the country, the occasional rebellious descendant is not worth talking about.

Although the Silvermoon Council's impeachment of the Windranger family had no effect, the vengeful Aurelia wrote down the name of Darkan Drahir, who proposed it.

Aurelia, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, made a special trip to Silvermoon City, and under the ridicule of a large number of urban nobles, she gave Darkan a hard job in front of him at a noble banquet.

Darkan didn't think Aurelia would dare to take his position as powerful Silvermoon Speaker as anything.

However, Aurelia, who was still very young at the time, did not hesitate to throw a white glove in Darkan's face in public, according to the rules of the nobility.

【? If I'm not mistaken, did Aurelia have a one-on-one duel with Darkan? 】

Ah......h How old was Aurelia at the time? Can you beat that old fox? 】

[We laugh at it, after all, Darkan is an old fritter who can sit in the position of the speaker of the Silver Moon Council, and he is also an archmage, right? 】

Faced with the question raised by the barrage through Sarren's mouth, Aurelia shrugged her shoulders disapprovingly: "Archmage? So what? Who is not a genius anymore. ”

Sylvanas pursed her lips and chuckled, "Aurelia is the youngest Legendary Ranger in recorded history of the Windranger family, and she was only 25 years old when she broke through to the Legendary Realm. ”

For the likes of Sarren and Valeera, the 25-year-old legend doesn't sound like a surprise.

But at that time, Quel'Thalas was conniving at the Silvermoon Council, and the wind of pleasure was prevalent, so why should he stand up and work hard when he could lie down and enjoy?

At that time, Quel'Salas, who could enter the legend before the age of 100 was a genius among geniuses, and Aurelia's achievements were unprecedented.

When she challenged Darkan, Aurelia had just spent a hundred years of her life.

No kidding, in addition to her lack of combat experience, Aurelia's strength is no worse than that of her mother, Liresa.

If you add the power blessing of the artifact longbow Sarstora, Li Leisa doesn't dare to say that she can defeat her.

Lyresa is a combatant who fights on the battlefield, while Darkan is just an academic archmage who sits in the council hall all day giving orders.

Whoever will be more capable of actual combat does not need to be carefully thought about at all.

The final outcome of this duel was just as expected by Barrage and Sarren and others.

Having been thrown in the face by the junior, Darkan, who had never suffered such humiliation, angrily accepted Aurelia's challenge on the spot, determined to give this flamboyant junior a little color.

And then...... was beaten without any temper.

Afterwards, Aurelia walked away satisfied, but Darkan was ridiculed for centuries by his fellow council members who had long coveted his position for the humiliating defeat.

For a long time after that, the Silvermoon Council had been busy seizing power internally, and Anastria, who had been forced out of breath by the great nobles, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Valilla asked with a strange expression, "Sister Aurelia, are you ......?"

Aurelia shrugged her shoulders unabashedly: "That's right, I did it on purpose, you don't really think I'm just impulsive, right?" ”

"Before I provoked that duel, I consulted His Majesty the Sun King in advance, and only after getting his support did I put it into action."

"Heh~" Salian shook his head and said with emotion: "Sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, and this face-slapping incident has at least bought a hundred years of respite for the royal family of the Sunchaser." ”

As a party to the face-slapping incident, Darkan, who originally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue and continue to run the royal family, regretted that he had fallen short, and hated the Windranger family represented by Aurelia.

However, as the military elder guarding the border, the Windranger family is not afraid of the Silvermoon Council, which can only play rampant around Silvermoon City.

In order to prevent the Windranger family from letting the trolls enter in a fit of rage, the Silvermoon Council did not dare to offend them too harshly.

But this beam was thus concluded.

After that, Darkan often played small tricks on the logistics of the supply to the rangers, and the old and spicy Lilesa, with the support of the Sun King, saw the moves, and no one could help anyone.

Aurelia followed the expeditionary force into the Dark Gate, and although the Silvermoon Council had lost ground due to the treason of the orc invasion, Darkan's sleek old fritter was still alive.

Returning to Quel'Salas after many years, Aurelia was surprised to learn that Darkan had become Prime Minister after she left, and had been killed in public by Sarren's mother not long ago.

Because there are too many secrets involved in Darkan's death, there are many vague details in the investigation report released by the royal family.

During Draenor's tenure as a senior officer in the Expeditionary Force, Aurelia was also responsible for a lot of clerical work and accumulated a lot of experience, and she saw a lot of tricks in this report.

It was certainly inappropriate to ask the Sun King directly, and Aurelia was going to ask the person's immediate family member, Sarjan, who did not think that Yinas's behavior was really just a coincidence.

After returning to Quel'Salas, Sarren learned more about the whole story.

Knocking out Darkan was not a spur of the moment, the Sun King and the Deep Shadow family had already planned to plant the black cauldron of smuggling Sun Well water on Darkan's head.

This required that Darkan at that time must be in a state of speechlessness.

The discovery of Darkan's connection with the Dream Demon King was also expected, but Sarean was not 100% sure of it, and it could only be said to be a high probability event.

Anyway, Kael'thas was ready to nail Darkan's coffin board with both hands.

Whether it is collusion with the Scourgeon Legion or collusion with the Dream Demon King, it is enough to convict him of betraying the country for glory, and there is very "sufficient" evidence.

The only difference is that one is solid and ironclad, and the other is that Kel'thugad cooperated with false and false evidence.

"Hah!"

Knowing the cause and effect of this from Sarean, Aurelia smiled self-deprecatingly.

"If you want to talk about yin people, you politicians will play, but fortunately I'm on your side."

Salian smiled and raised his hand in a gesture of surrender: "First of all, I am not a politician, and I am only a participant in this plan." ”

Aurelia rolled her eyes angrily: "You little fox is embarrassed to say, if you don't pinch behind your back, Yinas will suddenly kill Darkan?" ”

Salian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Sister Aurelia, you really wronged me. ”

"I just pieced together the clues I found not long ago, and Darkan may have colluded with the Dream Demon King a long time ago, and it was my mother herself who decided to break the rules and attack him, and I didn't know she would be so tough."

"My original plan was to work with Kel'thugad to plant a black cauldron for Darkan, arrest him first and take him out of jail, and then take care of it slowly, who knew that my mother would kill him directly."

Aurelia smiled and rubbed Sarren's hair: "It's over, there's no point in talking about a dead person, let's end it, but ......"

Aurelia asked, worriedly, "Are you really sure, that ...... Won't Kel'thugad betray you? ”

Sarjan spread his hands: "I'm not sure, Kel'thugad is a rationalist through and through, he only looks at who gives the higher chips, and he doesn't have much loyalty to speak of. ”

"But I've had a great time working with Kel'thugad over the years, and I have the information he needs most and the keys to the Shadow Realm."

"Unless it is absolutely necessary, there is really no need for Kel'thugad to turn against me."

"Admittedly, Kel'thugad can also get in touch with the Shadow Realm through other channels, but compared to the price I gave, the sincerity on that side is not so high, after all, ......"

Salian smiled meaningfully: "No one wants to be a puppet in the hands of others, especially a man like Kel'thugad who is bent on the truth, and free will is especially important to him. ”

"Shadow Realm......"

Aurelia thoughtfully tapped her finger on the table in front of her: "Azeroth is really a lot of disasters, the Burning Legion and the Elder Gods are enough headaches, and now there is a shadow realm on the side of death." ”

Sarjan comforted slightly, "Not the entire Shadow Realm is coveting Azeroth, we have like-minded allies over there. ”

"It's not the best time to focus on solving the crisis in the Shadow Realm, so let's focus on the present first."

"Indeed."

Aurelia looked at the endless sea level outside the window with a solemn expression: "The most important thing at the moment is to deal with the invasion of the Burning Legion first, then ...... Are you really sure you can take out Akmund? ”
