On the 2nd of January, Queen Kalia suddenly summoned the ministers of the Rotterdam Kingdom urgently.
A large number of nobles looked at the radiant Queen on the throne in astonishment, completely speechless.
In order to avoid suspicion, Duque asked Kalia to ingest the Blessing of Eternal Life in stages. The changes would not be too obvious in a short period of time.
However, just because her appearance did not change did not mean that her spirit did not change!
The old ministers, Mograine and Abbendis, knew that the queen had not been happy in the past few years. However, they had no choice! Kalia was the only legitimate heir of the royal family. If they did not support her to ascend the throne, all the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom would be like wandering ghosts. They would lose their loyalty and cohesion.
That was a deep-rooted concept that had been rooted in this land for 2,800 years and had been passed down for countless generations.
Since the day the queen ascended the throne, the old ministers had been worried about the continuation of the royal bloodline.
Even though there were countless young nobles in the country who had launched an emotional attack on Queen Kalia, they were all chased away and killed.
Everyone knew that Queen Kalia only had one "him" in her heart.
The problem was that although that guy was good, no one knew where he had died all year round. Besides, he had a few queens who had an unclear relationship with him. The people of the Rotterdam Kingdom could accept an extremely powerful husband, but they would never accept their queen running off to be a lover.
Alright, Queen Kalia, who had been frowning and forcing a smile since Lin Li's disappearance, suddenly changed 180 degrees today. Considering the news of Lin Li's visit, Mograine and Abbendis looked at each other, and saw the same answer in each other's eyes.
"Sigh …"
Still unable to escape from Duque's clutches?
Queen Kalia said, "Once upon a time, I also thought that noble bloodline was everything. Obviously, this thinking is wrong. The great commander of the Alliance, Duke Marcus, once said something that I deeply agree with — people are noble because of their great deeds, not because of their bloodline. "
The queen's words caused a commotion among the ministers.
They were too embarrassed to interrupt the queen because she had not finished speaking.
"True nobles, such as Anduin Lothar, have the noblest sentiments and the grandest thoughts. When he discovered that Thoradin The Great's bloodline was a restriction to the various human kingdoms, and even to the growing number of races in the Alliance, he decisively chose to end the noblest bloodline in his own hands. As for the despicable, even if they have the so-called noble bloodline, just like my brother Arthas who killed my father, King Terenas, they will also do things that will anger the gods! "
The mention of Arthas was an eternal pain in the hearts of all the people of Rotterdam.
He killed his father and annihilated all the nobles and citizens of the Rotterdam City. He even spread the plague and death throughout most of the Rotterdam Kingdom's territory. If it weren't for the fact that the various countries had suffered great losses and were unable to go on an expedition to Northrend, the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom would have long gone to take revenge.
Now that Kaliya said that Arthas was a despicable person with a noble bloodline, it was really hard to refute.
Especially when Kaliya said this as the only heir of the Menethil Royal Family, no one dared to object.
Queen Kaliya stood up. She seemed to have some difficulty moving, but her beautiful appearance combined with her righteousness made her soft voice sound powerful.
"2,800 years ago, my ancestor opened up the then barren Tirisfal Forest for the humans, so he was honored as king from the leader of a clan. Two thousand and eight hundred years later, Arthas was stripped of his right to be king because of his heinous crimes. With history as a mirror, only people with both talent and virtue are qualified to be king. So if there is such a day, someone more suitable than me to lead Rotterdam appears, even if his surname is not Menethil, I, Kaliya Menethil, will not be stingy with my throne. I will abdicate! "
The words of a king were an oath that was thousands of times more serious than a nail on a board.
In a sense, Kaliya's words were like opening a Pandora's box with her own hands. For people who were greedy for power, this was undoubtedly asking for trouble. But everyone knew that Kaliya had said more than once that she did not want to be queen. This was completely forcing a duck onto a perch. If it was not Duque looking for her, but someone else, she would definitely not be willing to come back.
It was originally like this in history. It was only when the Burning Legion's Universe Fleet played large-scale landing battles around Azeroth that Kaliya, who had been missing for almost 30 years, resolutely came out of seclusion and participated in this war against evil.
Mograine and Abbendis sighed.
Two days ago, they heard that Duque was in Stormwind City against the nobles and wanted to implement large-scale reforms. They did not expect Kaliya to be the first to take the lead to support Duque today.
Think about it, even the queen of the old powerful Rotterdam took the lead to announce that only sages could be kings. What right did the small nobles in the south have to cling to the so-called aristocratic regulations from 2,800 years ago?
This was simply a slap in the face to the nobles of Stormwind City!
Kaliya did not give the nobles of Rotterdam any room to refute, and directly announced the end of the meeting.
One could imagine that the wave of sages being kings that would be set off next would sweep through the entire human world …
After the meeting, Kaliya quickly went to the side hall. Jaina was already waiting at the door.
"Sister Kaliya."
"Sister Jaina!"
The two queens hugged each other intimately. They had been best friends since they were very young. After all, they were both princesses and were close in age. But later, as Jaina was married to Duque by King Therin and left for the Elven Forest, the two had no choice but to alienate each other.
Unexpectedly, after a big circle, they were back together again.
Jaina brought Kaliya into the side hall. Only then did Kaliya realize that the queens and leaders were already there.
Seeing Kaliya's awkward walk, Jaina snickered and laughed maliciously. "Speaking of which, Duque is a big jerk. He had to torment us human girls. The three of us were going to chase him. Elves are all very loving."
"That's not it! He wasn't gentle to me at all. I insisted that I didn't want him, but he still bullied me regardless and forced me to learn those shameful things. " The pure and holy Tyrande seemed to be reminiscing as she held her face in her hands. The other six were shocked.
As the high priestess of the Moon Goddess, Tyrande had turned into a female chauffeur. When she suddenly started racing, a pure girl like Kaliya could not afford to be hurt!
Elusia could only change the topic in embarrassment. "But, is it really okay for you to do this?"
"I'm immortal. I'm not a talented person. If I take the throne, there might be all sorts of bad things that will happen. Why don't you take advantage of the fact that Mograine and the other old ministers are still here to arrange things and find a chance to retire? "
