Isaac holds out his hand as he waits and discourages any objections that might come up.
"We should mourn the death of His Majesty Elias."There is still the question of Count Brandar's realm.I know that there is such an opinion.But I want you to understand that we also need to have a presence that brings everyone together.What would everyone think if I, the Chancellor and the Duke, were to give instructions all the time? ”
Isaac looked around at everyone's faces once.
Surely one day they shall be dissatisfied with him, saying, Though he is not king, he is acting like a king.It creates chaos in the Reed Kingdom and does not necessarily evoke the ambition of the surrounding countries that are now forming alliances.They are buying the Ark Kingdom that lost Her Majesty the Queen and the Farty Kingdom that was on the verge of being invaded.We need a flag that brings everyone together.I believe it is time for His Majesty Elias to choose his king to protect the peaceful country he wanted.What do you think? "
This time, I asked for everyone's opinion.
This problem is difficult.
Those who admire Elias thought they should have a national funeral first.
However, given the future of those who were still alive, there was also a situation where a new king should be worn, and the country should be united as one.
No one gives a negative opinion.
But I said, "Isn't it okay to be a little more sad?"After you've attacked Count Brandar's realm, don't you think it's okay?"Many people had the idea.
This case is not so easy to switch between feelings.
"However, who should I choose to wear the princess' son married to another country to the king..."It will take some time to examine each act and make a request.Isn't it okay to clear up domestic problems by then? "
Count Cooper makes the point that it will take time to sort out the problem in parallel.
The theory of prudence was a plausible one.
But Isaac didn't think so.
Rather, we thought now that everyone's hearts were shaking, it was our greatest chance to seize power.
“There's a strong candidate in the country.First of all, may I consider whether that person is suitable for the next king?It won't take long. ”
Isaac looks at the Marquis of Wilmente.
Everyone's gaze gathered on him.
But I can't see the color of expectation in his eyes.
Rather, Isaac was disappointed to think that it was just a vulgar product of power desire.
― ― Isaac is going to support the Marquis of Wilmente because Kendra is engaged to Roland.
That's because it was a common idea for all of us here.
If the Marquis of Wilmente becomes king, the status of the Marquis of Well Rod will be a stone's throw.
Rather than venturing to give the throne to a stranger, the benefits it would bring to the House of the Marquis of Well Rod would be enormous.
And if Isaac is going to back us up, he's not going to be a competitor to any royalty from overseas.
Isaac is sure to solve the problems that arise when the Marquis of Wilamente becomes King.
Then the problem is sort of solved.
It was the moment when the Marquis of Wilmente, who was in an unfavorable situation, became the most powerful candidate.
Please wait!
I heard a voice waiting for this flow.
But that wasn't the voice of the person Isaac was waiting for.
- Because he was the Marquis of Wilmente.
What is it?
"Indeed, I have the right to inherit the throne."But my son, Fred, was betrayed by Uncle Brandar, who helped Jason and recommended him to be trustworthy.I don't think I deserve to succeed to the throne, since I've created the distant cause of His Majesty Elias's murder.I think it's better to find someone who's qualified. ”
I haven't totally denied it in case the other candidates were helpless, but this was essentially an offer to decline.
The Marquis of Wilmente smiles with some satisfaction as he shows his willingness to publicly decline.
And I bite off that smile right away.
"And you don't have to stick to Wang Zheng."Is it possible to adopt a political system of parliamentary representation?So some countries are doing well.It shouldn't be too bad to choose such a path. ”
He turned his gaze to Isaac.
As far as Congress is concerned, I've spoken to Isaac before.
I felt like you would do better than I would.
That's why I put my hopes in the first place, and I made a proposal to Congress.
But Isaac shook his head.
"It's possible because it's a country with only civilians."
The Marquis of Wilmente said, "Hey, that's not true!”Isaac's eyes widened.
Isaac's story continued.
"If you want to create a parliamentary system of nobility, you still need a king."If the king is gone, as in our country today, the marquis will be virtually at the top.In the Marquis and the Baron, the difference between power is clear.But if the Marquis and the Baron have the same weight, one day you will be dissatisfied. ”
“Isn't that what it is now?It is divided into three factions: royalist, neutral, and aristocratic.Each power relationship is very different, but there are no grievances. ”
“The situation is very different.Until now, it has been in the form of asking His Majesty to adopt opinions that we think are right for our country.If it is decided by the nobility alone, there will be times when it will be seen as just an interest struggle.After all, we need to be able to endure the "His Majesty's decision".It would be impossible in the present situation. "
Isaac denies the opinion of the Marquis of Wilmente because he was not originally active in laying down the parliamentary system.
"I think it's hard to be criticized for being worthy of a king.However, the only person in the country who has the right to inherit the throne is Lord Wilmente.Please accept it sparingly. "
"It's not that I hate it..."
(Wasn't Lord Enfield the one who was thinking of setting up a parliament...)
The Marquis of Wilmente was dissatisfied with the opposite of the words.
However, I also understood that "I was thinking about establishing a parliament, so I also thought about pros and cons".
If Congress were to be made in a forceful way this time, it would be denied because the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.
With that in mind, I couldn't say it any harder.
But Isaac didn't name any other candidates.
It has only claimed that there are people who have the right to inherit the throne in Japan, and it has not tried to touch anyone who has the right to inherit the throne outside the country.
It is essentially like recommending the Marquis of Wilmente to the King.
It was a very annoying act for the Marquis of Wilmente.
--But Isaac himself smashed the flow.
However, I do not agree or disagree with the accession of Lord Wilmente to the throne.
"What! What does that mean?"
Count Cooper hears back reflexively.
If Isaac had expressed his willingness to support the Marquis of Wilamente, the dissenters would have shut up and talked.
Count Cooper thought so.
And yet, Isaac doesn't make a declaration of intent.
The first thing that hit Count Cooper's head was, "Is this a stepping stone?It was a question of.
I've heard rumors that Isaac once tried to follow a merchant.
In the same way, "Do we not separate those who support the Marquis of Wilmente from those who do not, and dispose of those who do not?That's what it was. "
― ― The reaction here shapes our destiny.
Thinking like that, Count Cooper gets scared.
But at the same time, he said, "If you want to survive this national disaster, perhaps you should use such deliberate means?The idea also comes to mind. "
Count Cooper was going to choose the side that could survive, of course.
But again, Isaac's words surprise me.
"I am the Duke of Enfield, but it is a formal matter.It is essentially a human being and heir to the Marquis of Well Rod.My sister, Kendra, is engaged to Roland, the second son of the Duke of Wilmente.It is clear that if Lord Wilmente becomes king, Roland becomes prince.I will be the brother-in-law of the future king.I do not think I should express a positive opinion because I have a deep stake.Besides, I don't have the right to express my opinion on anyone who couldn't rescue Lord Elias..... "
Isaac looked down with a dark expression on his face.
It was the figure of a man who was losing confidence because he couldn't save Elias.
It was unusual for Isaac to be shedding his shoulders, and many nobles were lightly surprised.
"I will not say anything about the question of who to recommend to the King.I'll leave the rest to you, and I'll stick to that decision. ”
Isaac gave up the lead completely.
From here on out, you shouldn't lead the conversation on your own.
After this, someone has to take the lead.
If that person stays silent, Isaac's plan will fail.
It was a big bet, but Isaac trusted the person.
- I'm sure he'll do it.
