Chapter 1568 Eyes and Ears

Afterwards, Veronica discussed some more important matters with the courtiers, including rebuilding the Isa shrine, re-formulating the military organization and administrative structure, etc. Although Soshiyan never spoke, his presence with the Yangyan sword represented a certain attitude, which made Lugnath's courtiers restrained a lot.
When designing the army, Patricia proposed to divide the army into four parts, namely the militia that maintains order, the Queen's Guard that guards the royal court, the expeditionary force that conducts large-scale combat, and the contingents that escort messengers and support distant compatriots.
In order to take care of the emotions of the Ark World, Veronica approved this plan, but at the end of the meeting, it suddenly announced that the contingent was named the Hand of Isa, and the royal court's expeditionary force was called the Phoenix Army, commanded by the Phoenix King himself!
At first, this decision was opposed by almost all the court officials of the Ark, but when Doral brought out the "Ancient System", all Ada was silent - because according to the laws of the ancient empire, the Phoenix King was indeed the supreme commander of all the official armed forces of the empire except the Queen's Guard.
Unless these Arks Ada denies the legitimacy of Soshiyang, the Phoenix King, but this is equivalent to denying the sacredness of the Yangyan sword. Further, it is a matter that no one dares to say about Asuyan's divinity.
Soshiyan did not express any opinions throughout the whole process. In fact, he didn't really want to be a commander of a bunch of aliens, but after all, it was Veronica's public decision, and he didn't want to make his wife embarrassed.
Although this matter was decided like this, Soshiyan knew very well that the Aida would not willingly hand over military power to themselves, and all kinds of open and secret struggles are indispensable.
But neither he nor Veronica had the heart to play any political game with these people, so it was important to choose an agent.
At present, the only option is Doral.
Soshyan pondered about the aristocratic bureaucratic system of the ancient spirit empire given to him by Professor Veronica. Generally speaking, the ruling layer of the old empire was a binary team. The Queen and the Phoenix King each had a complete system. The Queen was mainly composed of female relatives, while the Phoenix King was composed of various aides, such as "Cupkeeper", "Spikekeeper", "Bowholder", "Charge Controller", "Lingsman", "Golden Feather Messenger", etc., which correspond to the aristocrats in different positions in the administrative system. These two systems can be replaced equally, so there is competition in many cases.
Now Veronica obviously has no relatives, so she has to form an aide system here.
Generally speaking, the cup holder and the Golden Feather Messenger are the most important in the system. The former is similar to the prime minister and is the chief administrative aide of the Phoenix King. He is also often awarded the position of the First Minister of the Empire. The latter is the eyes and ears of the Phoenix King, who presides over internal intelligence work and assumes the responsibility of secret police, is responsible for eliminating those political conspiracies against the Phoenix King, and removes some "troublemakers" if necessary.
Now Soshiyan is considering the position of Doral's Cup holder or the Messenger of Golden Feather. Although both seem to be empty titles now, it can make his political status equal to the Minister of Seal, because the Minister of Seal is in principle the Chief Executive of the Eternal Queen. However, according to Veronica, most of the authority of the Minister of Seal comes from the prestige and connections of the ancient family. It is difficult to control the overall situation with this position alone.
Moreover, as a prophet, Patricia felt that it was highly likely that she would not be able to fight Doral in politics.
So he made up his mind and used his power as the Phoenix King for the first time to publicly appoint Doral as the Golden Feather Messenger in the royal court.
This caught the ark spirits off guard and had no way to deal with it, because this was a staff position of the Phoenix King, and outsiders could not interfere at all. They could only watch Doral take this position from Soshiyang - Soshiyang touched his shoulder three times with the Yangyan Sword, and this was considered a formal appointment.
Logically speaking, after the appointment, Soshiyang had to give the other party a golden feather cloak, but now he doesn't have this thing, so he can only wait until it is built later before sending it to him.
As for whether Doral will dominate the royal court in the future, Soshyan felt that at least the premise of the absolute advantage of Lugnath's Ark population was not broken, there was no need to worry about this. He and Veronica still had time to make other arrangements.
Although they are the grass-roots team, the entire court parliament lasted for more than six hours, and the framework of the third-level parliament has been basically determined. The Qingteng Parliament, Lingshu Parliament and Phoenix Parliament will be held separately after the new city is built.
Lugnath's Ark got most of the political resources they wanted, and Soshyan and Veronica also won what they needed. There may be a more intense game in the future. However, as long as Veronica can capture the army, Soshyan feels that nothing is a problem.
As for the bullshit parliament, if you don’t obey, you will be disbanded directly, and Veronica will be dictatorial alone!
Of course, in fact, it was just thinking about it. Soshiyan knew that Veronica did not have the intention or motivation. If she was allowed to be dictatorial alone, the burden would still fall on her.
But he didn't have three heads and six arms, so it was impossible to manage the place and the army at the same time, so if the parliament was not too much, it would be better to keep it.
After the court meeting, Veronica came to the Ark's crystal dome observation deck and gave a speech to the Ark and all the spiritual races on the planet.
The content of the speech Soshiyang felt that nothing special, it was basically the unity and revival, but the appearance of the Eternal Queen still surprised many spiritual races, singing songs like the God-Blessing Queen.
After delivering the inspiring speech, Veronica did not stay on the ark, but set out to the city under construction, visited the former Comoros residents in the camp, and asked Doral to choose a group of people to use up all the remaining soul stones.
It was already evening when everything was done. Veronica and Soshyan drove away all the followers and only let the guards arranged by Doral follow them far away. The two returned to where they landed.
The two sat side by side on the huge rock, watching the sunset slowly sink into the sea in the distance. The scenery of the sea and sky is really refreshing.
Suddenly, Soshiyan felt Veronica leaning her head against her arm, so she stretched out her hand to hold the other person in her arms.
"Are you tired?"
"Well, a little bit."
Soshiyang smiled and stretched out his hand, stroked the hair on her forehead, and said:
"Isn't it very different from the queen's life you imagined?"
"Not that, they are not as difficult as Males yet. They are just boring and boring. They are all kinds of nonsense. They have already raised the nonsense to the level of art."
"Haha, why don't the Empire?"
"In this regard, although the fortress is cold, no one has any nonsense. Just do whatever you want to do."
Soshiyang stretched out his finger and gently scraped Veronica's nose, and smiled:
Chapter completed!
