Ronin and Princess Tess Greymane of Gilney have long been engaged, but because Princess Tess is still young, the elder Jean is reluctant to let his youngest daughter marry Dalaran early.

From the beginning of the 18th year of the Black Gate, Jean and Dalin, the two old kings of the old era, invariably retreated into the background.

Although they still have the title of king on their heads, anyone with a discerning eye can tell that both men have left the affairs of state to their successors.

In order to prevent young people from making mistakes due to their lack of experience, the two old kings are still in name for the time being, and have not completely delegated power, so that they can stand up in time to put out fires when problems arise.

Prince Liam, who died young in the original history, showed an amazing ability to govern the country.

Born in the new era, Liam was not at all interested in the isolationism of his father, Jean, and grandfather, Archibald.

After gradually taking over the rule of the kingdom from his father, Liam changed from Gilneth's previous conservative style and began to actively participate in various cooperation projects among the alliance countries.

As the majestic Wall of Greymane became a fixture, Liam no longer intended to close the country through it, and his decision was strongly supported by several lords whose fiefdoms were in the Silverpine Forest, including Darius Crowley.

A few years ago, for the sake of the family, Darius had also raised an army against the stubborn Jean.

Feng Shui took turns, and with the ascension to the throne of Liam, whose statecraft was very different from that of Jean, the Crowley family, whose interests were no longer violated, soon regained good relations with the Greymane royal family.

If nothing else, when Liam officially ascends the throne, Rhona Crolley, the daughter of Darius, who grew up with his childhood sweetheart, will most likely become the new Queen of Gilneis.

The situation at home is improving, and under the manipulation of Liam's immature but insightful diplomatic skills, Kyrgyzstan, who has always shown himself to be stubborn and conservative, has also achieved considerable success in diplomatic occasions.

One of the most striking diplomatic tactics is Princess Tess's engagement to Ronin, the leader of Dalaran.

In the early days of the Old League, dominated by Terenus, Dalaran had a good relationship with Lordaeron.

However, the two countries were torn apart by conflicting interests, and Dalaran turned to establish friendly and cooperative relations with Quel'Salas and Kurtilas, and the national power did not weaken in any way, but increased.

In contrast, the rebellious Terenus still wants to continue to carry out the dream of human unification that has long been unrealistic.

As a result, Lordanlun, who slapped his swollen face and filled with fat, became a lost man, and was infiltrated into a sieve by a large number of Dreaddemon Kings, which directly led to the subsequent civil war between the two kings and the chaos of natural disasters.

After all, Dalaran is only an independent city-state, and many resources can only be imported from abroad, and it is not in Dalaran's interests to have long-term conflicts with his neighbors.

After the new alliance was re-established, Queen Galia took the initiative to throw an olive branch to Dalaran, and Ronin resumed normal trade with Lordaeron.

Due to the isolationism of King Jean, Gilneth had not previously had much trade with Quel'Thalas.

If you want to get all kinds of spell casting materials and magic items, you can only import them from the magic kingdom of Dalaran at a high price.

However, Jean's foreign policy was too conservative, and Kyrgyzstan's relationship with Dalaran was not very good.

In order to change the situation, Dalaran was urged to reduce the tax rate on the purchase of bulk commodities by Kyrgyzstan.

Under the persuasion of Prince Liam, the old king Jean and Queen Mia finally agreed to marry their growing daughter Tess to the still unmarried leader of Dalaran, Ronin, to bring Gilneth and Dalaran closer through marriage.

For the marriage of Princess Tess, King Jean and Queen Mia were also heartbroken.

This Kyrgyz princess is not the quiet princess that most people are accustomed to knowing...... Of course, this is not to say that Princess Tess is spicy and rebellious.

According to information obtained by Ronin, Princess Tess's personality is quite similar to that of Galia, who has not yet ascended the throne but has received an enlightened education from Sarren, and is empathetic and has a strong self-assertiveness.

Luo Ning didn't care about this, he thought that Princess Tess should be able to become his virtuous helper after marrying.

"I don't like the kind of vase that is just cultivated for the sake of political marriages."

At the dinner that day, Ronin gently shook the red wine in his glass, and said to Sarren unabashedly: "Now Dalaran is in a contradictory period when tradition and innovation collide. ”

"My ideal partner is a companion who can help me share the pressure, not just a fertility tool."

Sarjan smiled and said, "In this case, Princess Tess, who is quite assertive and capable, is just what you want. ”

Gianna, who rushed to accompany Sarian to the banquet in her busy schedule, explained: "According to the intelligence officers of Dalaran, Princess Tess has been frail and sickly since she was a child, and she needs to take the potion prepared by the Kyrgyz royal apothecary Krennan Aranas for a long time. ”

"Perhaps it was during this difficult period of illness that Princess Tess was cultivated with a soft and indomitable character."

"As she grew up, Princess Tess, with the help of Prince Liam, underwent harsh training as a thief without her father."

"Perhaps, the arrival of Princess Tess can alleviate Dalaran's shortcomings in the training of intelligence officers."

"As Councillor Kenrito, I'm looking forward to the day when Her Royal Highness the iconoclastic princess marries Dalaran."

Saljan had heard Valilla mention this information a long time ago, and he was quite surprised at the time, the princess of the royal family would choose to become a thief walking in the shadows, which was indeed something that Salian did not expect.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that Salian has any prejudice against thieves, after all, his partner Valera is also a thief.

In the world's perception, thieves are not a glamorous profession.

They are not even as good as hard-working warriors in terms of image, and many people subconsciously think that thieves are stealing chickens and dogs.

"Is Dalaran's intelligence system ......?"

Sarian touched his chin thoughtfully: "Indeed, Dalaran, who is mainly a spellcaster, has always been lacking in this aspect, otherwise the Uncrowned Organization would not have chosen to set up its headquarters in the Dalaran Sewers." ”

"Uh~" At the mention of this question, Luo Ning suddenly showed an embarrassed expression, he hurriedly waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "Don't scold, don't scold, I'll deal with this problem as soon as possible." ”

"Nope." Sarean smiled and shook his head, "I'm not urging you to drive the Uncrowned One out of Dalaran, but I need you to make sure that the thieves are in Dalaran...... Or that the Coalition is acting under official surveillance. ”

The Uncrowned was founded by Duke Joracy Ravenhold of Alterac after the destruction of the kingdom by Alterac, and was originally established to help Alterac successfully restore the kingdom.

Now that Alterac has long since re-established himself in the world, Duke Ravenhold has focused most of his energy on various domestic affairs, and he has inevitably neglected the management of the uncrowned organization he has established.

In the absence of a leader, the quality of the members of the Uncrowned Ones is mixed.

Under the uneasy and constant surveillance of the Kenrito Council, the uncrowned ones who settled in the sewers of Dalaran gradually formed a tendency to become unstoppable, and the warlocks who were also rooted in the sewers became known as the Sewer Heroes.

Not long ago, Dalaran officially announced the legalization of the study of evil powers, and all research on evil powers must be carried out under the supervision of the Kenrito Council.

The research of spellcasters consumes a lot of precious resources, and if they can get official support, who wants to burrow into the sewers all day long?

After the problem of the warlocks secretly gathering was initially resolved, the biggest headache for Luo Ning was the uncrowned thief who was always unwilling to move his nest.

Sallian bowed his head and pondered for a moment before continuing, "Due to the turmoil in Azeroth in recent years, a large number of homeless and homeless thieves have joined the Uncrowned, causing this illegal organization to grow in size. ”

"This underground organization, which regularly holds illegal assemblies, must be brought under control, and I intend to make the status of the uncrowned gradually official."

Luo Ning raised his eyebrows in surprise: "What do you mean...... Co-optation of the Uncrowned? ”

Salian nodded: "According to the information provided by Valeera, the current uncrowned group of dragons is leaderless, and no thief can use his strong personal strength and leadership to suppress other competitors who are interested in fighting for power. ”

"If, at this time, we parachute in one, or even a group of thieves with outstanding skills, to join the Uncrowned......"

Luo Ning nodded thoughtfully: "This is indeed a solution, you plan to let Valera do it herself?" ”

"Nope." Salian smiled and denied: "It's a bit of a bully to let Vali pull out, I have another suitable candidate." ”

"It's better to inform Jorazi first, the Uncrowned One was established by him, and this kind of blatant plan to seize power is better to get his approval first."
