Lord: Marry the villain's daughter at the beginning?
Chapter 235 Proposal Passed
Most of the nobles were opposed to this proposal.
The capital had long lost the strength to make the dukes of the four territories stay in the capital obediently, and it was even unable to get the governor of the northern territories to come to the capital to negotiate with the queen. Now the three dukes of the southwest and east territories were still willing to stay in the capital purely because they were worried that something unexpected would happen in the capital again.
Just like Judith, she could have returned to the southern border to command the war without Lilith's request, but that would have had a very serious impact on Lilith's authority, and various parts of the kingdom would have begun to move.
The control of the dukes over their subordinates is not even as strong as that of Grand Duke Lars.
Although the Capetian Kingdom is now experiencing serious internal friction, it is far from the time to split up, and the dukes must at least maintain the authority of Her Majesty the Queen on the surface.
What's more, the capital city is far from being in such a dire situation that it is beyond redemption. At least under Lilith's reforms, the mess of the Capetian Kingdom seems to be able to be maintained.
But it is indeed impossible to restrain a governor who has unified the North. Even though the territory of the North has been somewhat discounted compared to Lars' peak period, judging from the weapons in the battle reports, the strength has not been discounted, but has become even more difficult to deal with.
How could such a governor come to the capital and chat with the nobles?
It would be even worse if Her Majesty the Queen went to the North in person to talk to the Governor. She had never faced the other side's weapon kings before. If the other side had any evil intentions, Her Majesty the Queen would be in great danger, and the situation would become even more chaotic.
Nora objected directly, "No! Your Majesty, no matter what, your safety is the most important thing now. You must not leave the capital so easily!"
The New Party nobles also opposed it. To them, Lilith's life was more important than anything else. Although Lilith was Governor Linde's sister on the surface, everyone knew that this was just a symbolic alliance made by the other party to stabilize the situation in the royal capital. But now the situation is different. The North has been unified, and this alliance no longer matters to the other party.
"Your Majesty, you can send someone to negotiate with the governor. You don't have to meet the governor in person, either in terms of etiquette or status."
The nobles of the New Party began to speak out.
And Nora directly recommended herself: "Your Majesty, let me do it for you."
But at this moment, Judith's eyes rolled. Others didn't know what was going on, but Judith guessed that Her Majesty the Queen and Governor Lind were in the same group, and now, Her Majesty the Queen wanted to meet with Governor Lind. Was the time ripe?
"I think it's necessary to meet in person."
Judith stood up and said, "Some things cannot be explained clearly, whether through letters or by sending people to negotiate. Your Majesty still needs to meet in person. Only in this way can misunderstandings be avoided to the greatest extent."
"Have you ever thought that many wars in history may have originated from a small misunderstanding? Now, we have to put an end to these misunderstandings."
Judith turned around and saluted Lilith, saying, "Your Majesty, if you are going to the North, I am willing to be your guard and go with you."
Judith glanced at her old partner Scott, who stood up helplessly and said, "Everyone, the North has just experienced a war. Although the war report shows that the North's weapons are very terrifying, the North also suffered heavy losses this time. Isn't this the best time for us to build good relations with the North and communicate with each other?"
"As Dame Judith said, the North is now at its weakest, but also at its most sensitive. If the letter or the messenger does not correctly convey the Queen's intentions, and someone else stirs up trouble, then if something goes wrong, wouldn't that be a direct benefit to outsiders?"
"And now, Her Majesty the Queen is the one who needs to take action. As long as Her Majesty goes to the North, not only can the North be appeased, but some rumors can also be dispelled. It would not be a bad idea to promote technical exchanges at that time."
What Scott said did make some sense. Although Nora thought she could convey Lilith's meaning perfectly, if someone fanned the flames and destroyed the relationship between the capital and the North, such as Anjou on the southwest border and the demons north of the North, then it would be basically hopeless for both sides.
At this time, the church representative also stood up and said, "Don't worry about your safety. We will protect your Majesty."
"We don't need to set foot in the North. We can just negotiate at the junction of the North and the Central Region."
Having said that, although the New Party nobles were still worried about Lilith's safety, they had no choice but to nod in agreement.
The main reason is that the governor has always had a good reputation, and at least he has been given a lot of respect on the surface.
It would be better for Lilith to personally find out the governor's future plans.
Lilith's proposal was quickly approved, and many details were quickly finalized at the meeting, and a specific plan was soon ready.
Lilith wrote a letter by herself and sent it to Lind by a special messenger.
In addition to wanting to find out Governor Linde's future plans, Lilith actually wanted to ask this fellow villager what he thought about future development.
Judith really intended to follow Lilith as a guard to meet this descendant of the empire.
This is the first time that Lilith is preparing to leave the capital since she came to power, so it is important to know who stays behind.
Originally, everyone thought that since Judith was going to leave with Lilith, then at least Nora, as the prime minister, would stay. However, unexpectedly, Lilith changed the plan and asked Nora to leave with her, saying that Lilith needed to consult Prime Minister Nora's opinion on some major matters.
There is nothing wrong with this, but in this case the core strength of the New Party would be almost emptied out, leaving behind a group of New Party aristocrats without a leader.
Claire felt her heart skip a beat when she heard the news.
The Queen and the Prime Minister are not here, the Duke who has always supported the Queen is missing, the only one left is Monroe, who is one of her own, and Scott, who is not a die-hard supporter of the Queen. Claire's deputy has also been suspended. Now the palace guards are entirely under the responsibility of Claire alone. This is simply the best time to launch a coup.
But Claire quickly calmed down. The timing was too perfect, so perfect that Claire was a little scared. Wouldn't Lilith be able to see that she was fanning the flames at the meeting? And taking Nora away was like waiting for someone in the capital to jump out and stage a coup.
This person may not be Claire, but more likely one of the restless Augustines under Claire.
Lilith's authority has not been damaged. Even if a coup is successful now, it will not last long. Even if someone launches a coup, Lilith can legitimately ask for help from the North.
Claire shook her head, stood up and went to the inner part of the palace to appease the Augustines. The time had not yet come, and they still had to act according to Claire's original plan.
But even so, this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity must be utilized. Lilith can contact the Governor of the North, and Claire can also go according to the plan and talk to the demons in detail.
