Chapter One Thousand and Forty-Seven: It Came Too Suddenly
Time passed slowly, a week passed, on this day, Guo Xiaofeng had lunch at home with Xu Yingnan and Guo Yuande, Guo Yuande was still clamoring for his mother to lift his grounding.
made Guo Xiaofeng and Xu Yingnan angry, looking at his second son, who is so old, he is not long-hearted at all, and if he continues to mess around like this, sooner or later something big will happen.
The two stood up and began to reprimand Guo Yuande, and they didn't eat anymore, and they were full of anger.
Just when the two were reprimanding, Guo Changhe came back with someone, and the two didn't care about reprimanding Guo Yuande, and came to greet Guo Changhe.
Guo Changhe looked at the two of them and didn't say a word, but looked at Guo Yuande, waved his hand and said, "Catch it."
The person who came in with Guo Changhe immediately started to do it, and directly detained Guo Yuande, and the frightened Guo Yuande shouted loudly, "Mom save me, dad save me."
Hearing Guo Yuande's shout, Guo Changhe walked over and raised his hand to slap him, and Guo Yuande, who was directly pumping, fell on the coffee table, "Take it away, I can't help but kill him directly."
The staff immediately escorted the howling Guo Yuande away, Guo Changhe turned his head to look at Guo Xiaofeng, Guo Xiaofeng lowered his head and remained silent, knowing in his heart that his father already knew about Guo Yuande.
looked at Guo Xiaofeng, and then at Xu Yingnan, Guo Changhe turned around and left, and didn't talk to the two at all.
At this time, a staff member next to him came over, "Guo Xiaofeng, Xu Yingnan, you two interfered in judicial work, and now I announce on behalf of Xinggong that I will deprive you of all titles and send them to the Ministry of Justice for trial."
After speaking, he waved his hand, and several people who came over next to him also directly detained Guo Xiaofeng and Xu Yingnan, and escorted the two of them out of the residence, and the servants at home all had shocked expressions.
In addition to the arrests of Xu Yingnan, Guo Xiaofeng, and Guo Yuande, the Ministry of Supervision also sent people to the police station to arrest 17 people, and to the Ministry of Justice to arrest 32 people.
Eleven people were arrested by city councillors and nine by congressmen.
The other three sons and daughters were all arrested, including their parents, and their parents did not spend less money.
After the media reported on this incident, the whole country was shocked, and no one could imagine why the Ministry of Supervision and the Ministry of Justice would arrest so many people.
Five days later, Xu Qian, the emperor of the Star Spirit Empire, held a press conference to announce the case, and bowed to the camera to apologize to the people of the whole country for his sister's illegal behavior.
Immediately afterwards, the Ministry of Justice held a public trial, and the victim's family and the media came, and today's approval was broadcast live across the country.
Xu Yingnan and Guo Xiaofeng, the two admitted in court that they had bribed state judicial personnel, and finally the court pronounced a verdict that the two were deprived of all titles and sentenced to five years in prison.
No sooner had the verdict been pronounced than Ranke appeared, and after consulting the judge, he began to speak.
"Xu Yingnan, as a member of the royal family, knows the law and breaks the law in the best class"
"Your Majesty's decree to deprive Xu Yingnan of his royal status, expel him from the royal family tree, and increase his sentence by two years" After Ranke announced the result, everyone was taken aback.
The three judges deliberated, and the presiding judge, Joanna, stood up and declared that "His Majesty has the right to increase the sentences of royal members under imperial law"
"This court pronounced the verdict, and Xu Yingnan's sentence was changed to seven years."
Seeing this, Ranke nodded to the judge and the others, and turned to leave.
Then the approval continued, and all those who accepted bribes were sentenced, and the city councilors who were active in this matter were stripped of their status as councilors, fined 200,000 yuan, and served half a year in prison.
At the same time, deprivation of political rights for life.
In other words, these city councilors will not have the right to vote or run for election in the future, and they are not allowed to participate in all political matters, and it is illegal to participate.
If you still participate in the search for death, the second direct ten-year sentence will start, and the third death sentence will be executed.
Members of the National Assembly, these people were also deprived of their status, and those who had titles and medals were also deprived of all of them, and the crime was increased by one degree, fined 500,000 yuan, served three years in prison, and deprived of political rights for life.
Only one person was exempted from punishment and exempted from criminal law.
However, he was deprived of his political rights.
The empire has a legal system, and the founding knights have the right to exchange their titles for the reduction of the sentences of their descendants, and the person who is exempted from the sentence and sets off consumes his father's two-level title.
Demoted from earl to baron, two levels.
Next, the Ministry of Police, the Ministry of Justice, and those who accepted bribes were also sentenced, their illegal gains confiscated, and they were fined 100,000 yuan, sentenced to three years in prison, and deprived of political rights for life.
Guo Yuande and the other four were all sentenced to death.
The compensation given to the victims by the families of the four is legitimate and will not be recovered.
This case directly caused a great shock in the Star Spirit Empire, and no one thought that the emperor would be so ruthless, even if it involved his own sister, he would not be merciful.
The empire governs the country by the rule of law,
That's what the state propagandizes, and that's what the emperor is doing now, upholding the majesty of the Constitution.
Ordinary people sighed with emotion in their hearts, and their senses for the royal family rose a little, and they were all rational people, and they knew very well what kind of pressure the emperor was facing in doing this.
Upholding the laws of the empire, the emperor really did.
All the people in the empire who have titles have begun to face up to this matter, and the emperor's face and sister are all dead, and this title on his own body will definitely not be put in the eyes of the emperor.
However, those who were the founding knights of the country breathed a sigh of relief and sighed that the rule set by Xu Ping'an really took their interests into account to the greatest extent.
One by one, they all began to think of Xu Ping'an's goodness in their hearts.
That night, Xu Qian's personal social account was updated, and there were only eight words on it, everyone is equal before the law!
Below, the first one to like it turned out to be Xu Ping'an, obviously, Xu Ping'an was satisfied with Xu Qian's approach this time.
In Xinghai City, Xu Ping'an walked with Dalina, and after walking for a while, Xu Ping'an said "I'm sorry".
Darina shook her head and said, "I don't blame you, I understand your difficulties, and I also understand why Yingnan did this, as a mother, no one wants something to happen to her son"
"What Yuande does, it's not a pity to die."
Darina is also from an ordinary family, and it is impossible for ordinary people not to be bullied, this kind of thing will happen every day in any country, and it is very common.
Xu Ping'an patted Dalina's hand and said, "The son is not the fault of the father, and I am also responsible for Yingnan to come to this point."
"After a few years of her understanding, I will arrange for her to follow Xiaofeng to other places to start over."
Dalina nodded, and didn't want to talk about it anymore, Xu Ping'an also followed Dalina's meaning and began to talk about other things.
When this case reached the earth, the bigwigs of many big countries let out a long sigh, and they had a feeling of underestimating Xu Qian, but they didn't expect Xu Qian to be able to do this.
Moreover, this case also conveys a lot of meaning, that is, the people will be investigated if they do not sue the officials.
The victim was pressured to compromise on the acceptance of compensation, and if the matter was known to the Ministry of Supervision, it would have to be investigated.
If you should be punished, you will be punished, and you will be killed when you should be killed, and you will not tolerate it once you investigate it to the end.
Second, the promise of the royal family is valid, Xu Ping'an said back then that I was blessed by struggle for three generations, this sentence is true and valid.
The commutation of the title really happened, which will make the founding fathers of the Star Spirit Empire and their descendants cherish their titles and support the royal family even more.
This is very conducive to the stability of the Star Spirit Empire.
Third, the rule of law has become more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and ordinary people's favorable opinion of the Ministry of Supervision has skyrocketed, while their perception of those congressmen and members of Congress has dropped sharply.
This time, so many city councilors were involved with the congressmen, so that the people of the Star Spirit Empire generally did not have a good impression of the councilors, and it will be more difficult for the councilors to do things in the future.
At the same time, ordinary people are more likely to recognize the rule of the emperor, and only the emperor can give them justice.
There are other benefits, in short, this case has brought a lot of benefits to the royal family of the Star Spirit Empire, which is very important for the stability of the Star Spirit Empire.
However, at this moment, the focus of the bigwigs of various countries cannot be placed on the Star Spirit Empire, and the proposal for the control of armaments on the United Nations side is still being debated.
It's been so long, and there still hasn't been a result.
At first, the EU didn't want to agree and deliberately dragged it, but last month, the United States, E, and both countries added two starships, and TC added three starships.
This makes the EU a little unable to sit still.
According to the information they have, in a few months, the Apocalypse Machinery Group will deliver several interstellar warships, one of which belongs to country E.
Moreover, the United States has secretly completed the construction of two starship factories, which will start next month at the latest, so it can be said that all countries are narrowing the gap with the EU's military strength.
What makes the EU even more uncomfortable is that now the TC is a little less anxious, plus the three starships in leveraged service, nine starships in hand, there is already enough strength to deal with emergencies.
What's more, there are still four interstellar warships in production in China, and by the end of next year, TC will have thirteen interstellar warships in its hands, equaling the number of interstellar warships in the hands of the European Union in one fell swoop.
At that time, the EU's voice will be much lower, which the EU does not want to see.
Besides, there is also an Eagle Country next to it, and after the domestic starship construction plant was acquired by the Apocalypse Machinery Group, two starships were also produced.
These two starships were not sold, but stayed directly in the Eagle Country, so that the larger Eagle Country had four starships.
Coupled with the influence of the Eagle State within the EU, this makes the EU bigwigs very uneasy.
In response to this situation, the French and Italian divisions have built a starship construction plant, which will not be completed until next year, and by then there will be four factories in the European Union that are fully engaged in the production of starships.
Once the number of interstellar warships in the hands of the countries of the earth is too large, it is easy to misfire, and at that time, I am afraid that it will be another world war.
What makes the EU bigwigs even more unwilling to accept is that if a world war breaks out on the earth, it can only be a cheap Star Spirit Empire for nothing.
The Star Spirit Empire is already strong enough, if the Star Spirit Empire is made stronger, there is really no possibility for the earth countries to catch up.
Back then, TC learning the developed technology of Europe and the United States would not happen again, so at this time it was completely different from that time, and now the scientific and technological products of the Star Spirit Empire, you can't learn it at all.
Imitation, you can't imitate, all kinds of equipment technology anti-theft level is very high, key electronic components, you disassemble and scrap, don't understand the principle you can't repair.
In the past two years, the number of registered patents of the Star Spirit Empire in various countries on the earth has begun to decline, not that there is no breakthrough, but that some enterprises in the Star Spirit Empire are confident that you can't imitate it.
Why do I have to register a patent if you can't produce it, it's just a waste of money, so I won't register it.
Playing tricks to say that the products of the Star Spirit Empire infringe on your patents, you also have to come up with strong evidence, if you dare to play hooligan methods, the end will be even worse.
A few days later, the P5 heads of state held a meeting in the capital of country E, and they were able to sit down and talk, again because of the Star Spirit Empire.
The EU has made it very clear that if we fight, there will be only one winner in the end, and that is the Star Spirit Empire.
This sentence made all the bigwigs gather together and begin to seriously discuss the matter of arms control.
During the four-day meeting, several bigwigs argued very much, and they were unwilling to be threatened, but if the EU did not reduce the number of starships, other countries would not be at ease.
On the last day, all parties compromised with each other before an agreement was reached.
The P5, each country can have five starships, France and Germany can only have two, and the European Union wants to reduce the number of starships to six within three years, including the number of starships owned by France and Germany.
The other P5 countries are responsible for compressing the starships to five, and countries outside the P5 can have up to two starships.
EU member states are not included, and only the number of starships in the EU as a whole is counted, and it cannot exceed six.
A year later, if a country violates the resolution, the P5 will impose sanctions on it.
The P5 had a result, and it was useless for the United Nations to oppose it, and this proposal was forced to pass, and many countries began to reduce starships very uncomfortably.
Japan is very uncomfortable, because Japan is already four starships at the moment, and reducing two ships is equivalent to halving its military strength.
This time, you can't find anyone, the European Union, the United States, and TC are also reducing interstellar warships, and you don't want to make an exception in Japan.
Only one year is given, and if a UN member state is found to have violated this rule after one year, the P5 will impose sanctions on them.
When the news spread from the United Nations, the stock markets of all countries on the earth began to rise generally, and many people were relieved that all countries had reduced their starships, and the possibility of war was reduced a lot.
The Star Spirit Empire also received this news without exception, and Xu Ping'an smiled after reading the report, not caring at all.
If dogs could get rid of their feces, the world wouldn't be the way it is.
Xu Ping'an doesn't care about this, he has calmed down at the moment, and sooner or later he will break out again, not to mention, whether he has really calmed down depends on the specific situation.
When did the starships really cut, and when did they call it really calm.
Outside the solar system, the planet of the new home of the Star Spirit Empire.
At this moment, three thousand people have already arrived on this planet, and everyone sighs for this huge interest, and on this day, a transport ship took off and flew straight to one of the continents.
The continent was named Shenzhou Continent, and landed in a carefully chosen place, not far from the sea, where the first city would be built.
After the ship landed, a team of 800 engineers stepped off the ship, unloaded the construction equipment and began to set up the base, and a day later, another transport ship came to transport supplies and the other ship left.
After more than three months, the simple camp with a large area was completed.
At this time, the departing spacecraft came with a full load of personnel and supplies, a thousand engineers and some construction materials.
Major construction began, where a permanent complex was to be built, roads were built, buildings were built, floors were hardened, and so on.
After another month, the ship brought in a thousand soldiers and some building materials and food, and these soldiers came with the simple purpose of cleaning up and driving away the predators around them.
There is a strict order from the Empire to prohibit the mass slaughter of wild beasts, which can only be driven away, because these beasts may carry an unsolvable virus on their bodies.
The probability is as high as 94 percent, and this conclusion shocked the military people, and they began to be cautious about this matter.
This excuse was found by a biologist, a deadly virus was found on seabirds, and the contagion is still being studied, and it was used to control the military from killing wild animals indiscriminately.
Not to mention, it has a certain effect, and many soldiers who plan to barbecue in the wild have dispelled this idea.
Honestly carry out the order, and directly shoot down those beasts that dare to come and attack without knowing how to escape, and all the beasts that were killed were carried together by soldiers wearing protective suits and directly set on fire.
The beasts within a radius of 300 kilometers must be cleaned up and driven away, this is their task, the place is large, the personnel are small, and they can only be cleaned up in one direction for the time being.
There is also an important reason why the personnel are not dispersed, there is a peculiar creature in the woods, the centipede snake, which is poisonous.
This centipede snake has twenty pairs of legs, snake scales, and a snake head on its head, but it has two more centipede tentacles on its head.
Two careless soldiers have been bitten and are still being rescued, and no one knows whether they can survive or not.
The reason for the bite was because the two men disobeyed the order and did not spray insect repellent all over their bodies.
Insect repellent smells bad, but it's better than losing your life.
After this incident, everyone did not dare to be careless, and the order conveyed from above was to be resolutely implemented.
One of the newly established permanent bases in the rear is a research base for the Biology Project team, which will conduct research on all living things on land.
Poisonous animals, in particular, are studied until antibodies to these biotoxins are developed.
Among the people who will come next month, there will be a hundred more biological species and toxicity researchers, and at present, there are no measures for these poisonous insects, only smoke and insect repellent.
The engineering team is sprayed with this insect repellent and realgar water every day, and if it weren't for these, I'm afraid many people would have been killed and injured.
Three months have slowly passed, and the number of personnel here has reached 4,000, and the number of military personnel has not increased, but the increase is all engineering personnel and scientific research personnel.
This is good news, the bad news is that the two soldiers who were bitten did not come back and died.
When the news spread, everyone held a memorial ceremony for the two of them, and after the bodies were cremated, the ashes were sent back to the empire.
After another four months, the number of engineers was increased by another 4,000, the permanent base was completed, seven buildings were erected and renovated, and a large amount of experimental equipment began to be transported.
Biological research and antidote research are starting to get on track, and the efficiency of researchers has skyrocketed.
At this time, according to the plan, the construction of a medium-sized acoustic fusion power plant and a portal began, and the construction was completed in two months, one receiving materials and the other transmitting materials.
The first time the portal worked, more than 500 trucks and some hydrogen vehicles came directly, and many of the equipment in the trucks were the equipment of hydrogen production plants.
The first plant to be built is a hydrogen plant, and with liquid hydrogen energy, these trucks can be moved, and the speed of urban construction will be increased again.
The solar system, Mars, the Star Spirit Empire, Xu Wentao's premiership is approaching, and a new round of prime minister elections will kick off.
This time, not many people signed up to run for election, because the new prime minister is not so easy to do and faces too many problems.
One of the biggest problems is the problem of employment, and now, the population of the Star Spirit Empire has reached 260 million, and the number of new births has exceeded 3 million last year.
Moreover, at the end of the year, one trillion yuan of national bonds will be paid at maturity, which is not a small amount.
Economic pressure, fiscal revenue pressure, population pressure, law and order pressure, etc., there are so many problems that many people can't think of how to solve this problem.
If one is not good and makes a mess, he will be impeached at that time, and he will be infamy.
Infamy has a great impact on the rest of your life, and it also has a great impact on your children's participation in politics, unless you are particularly good, it is difficult for you to move to a high-level position.
Therefore, they are very cautious, and the registration has been started for a week, and only three people have signed up.
It can be seen that they are worried that they will not be able to deal with the problems facing the empire in front of them.
Xu Wentao is interested in running for re-election, but unfortunately, the imperial constitution stipulates that the term of office of the prime minister is only two terms, and there is only one way to continue to run for the prime minister.
That is the Star Spirit Empire going to war with other countries.
Only in wartime will the prime minister be allowed to cross the red line of two consecutive terms.
Declaring war is not so simple, only the emperor has the right to declare war, and it also needs to be approved by the Congress, so Xu Wentao will not be able to go down this road.
These days, the media of the Star Spirit Empire has also reported a lot of things, the new prime minister is facing a lot of pressure, and the number of people who have signed up for the election is so small now has a lot to do with these problems.
Don't forget, after you sign up for the election, you need to submit your ruling program to the emperor for review, and now these three applicants have not submitted their own governing program.
You can't be a real candidate for prime minister without passing the emperor's review.
Xu Qian is not a master who is easy to fool, he is a person who has served two terms as prime minister, and he knows the situation of the empire well, and it is basically impossible for you to fool yourself.
Earth, back then, the big man of the United States who was afraid of the society was able to come to power was related to the system of the United States, and now, the system of the Star Spirit Empire avoids those who will create topics to attract traffic to participate in the election.
The current system of the Star Spirit Empire is very restrictive to those who are interested in politics, and if you don't have any experience in managing a city, don't expect to run for election.
If you want to run for election, you must first become a mayor and deputy mayor or a minister or deputy minister of a government department, and you must have a certain familiarity with national affairs before you can run for election.
The mayor is appointed by the emperor, from two years ago, the deputy mayor can be elected, and with three years of experience as deputy mayor, you can also run for the prime minister.
At the beginning, there was a proposal to amend the constitution to give MPs the right to run for prime minister, but Xu Ping'an approved a national referendum to approve the amendment to the constitution as long as the people had no opinion.
The members of Congress were also very excited, and they began to be active everywhere, which made many people bored, and it was time to vote.
As soon as the results were introduced, 82 percent of the negative votes made those members of Congress completely extinguish.
This result is real, when many cities count the votes, those congressmen are staring at the scene, and each vote is for their own purposes.
Since then, the members of Congress have been much more honest, and they know in their hearts that the people of the empire do not like members of Congress.
A few days later, one of the three applicants directly announced that he had withdrawn from the election, because after thinking twice, he could not solve the problem in front of him.
At the same time, it was proposed that Xu Wentao could be re-elected to solve the current problems encountered by the empire.
This person was unwilling to fail like this, and buried a mine when he was about to die.
Xu Wentao immediately issued a statement that the imperial constitution is above everything else, and as the prime minister, he must become the defender of the constitution, and the red line of two terms must not be broken.
This statement has been recognized by many people, who believe that Xu Wentao is a person who respects the Constitution, but Xu Ping'an and Xu Qian do not think so.
The two knew very well in their hearts that Xu Wentao dreamed of being re-elected, but they couldn't cross this red line.
After another three days, another applicant announced his withdrawal, for the simple reason that it would be difficult for him to solve the problems facing the empire.
In this way, the remaining one is the only applicant, and if his governing program can be approved by Xu Qian, there is a very good hope of becoming prime minister.
Chen Bin, the mayor of Qincheng City, looked at the media reports and didn't know what to say, Chen Bin had already planned to announce his withdrawal from the election tomorrow.
As a result, he was preempted by his colleagues.
Now he is left alone, is it a fight, after thinking about it again, Chen Bin's gambling spirit came up, opened the drawer and took out the ruling program he had written and took the car to the Star Palace.
Formally submit his governing platform.
After the news spread, the focus of the media was on Chen Bin, and a day later, Chen Bin received a call from Xu Qian and went directly to the Star Palace.
In the garden of the Star Palace, Xu Qian asked Chen Bin three questions in a row, but Chen Bin couldn't give a clear answer.
"What the hell do you think," Xu Qian asked.
"Your Majesty, I simplified the problem, I originally wanted to fight, but now it seems that I overestimated myself" Chen Bin said honestly.
This attitude made Xu Qian smile bitterly, could it be that he needed to personally order the second child to be re-elected, Xu Wentao's smiling expression appeared in his mind, and Xu Qian was very tired.
"You go and explain to the media" Xu Qian turned around and left after speaking, rubbing his head while walking, I'm afraid this time, it really made the second child get his wish.
Chen Bin shook his head with a wry smile, left the Star Palace with his report, and was stopped at the gate.
made public his conversation with Xu Qian, "Everyone, I'm sorry, I overestimated myself, the questions His Majesty asked me are all issues related to the society and people's livelihood, which is very realistic."
"You already know what my answer is, not only is Your Majesty dissatisfied, but after listening to Your Majesty's analysis, I myself feel that I have not thought it through."
"Your Majesty did not approve my governing program, I agree with Your Majesty's opinion, my homework is indeed not in place, I hope you can forgive me for my recklessness"
After speaking, Chen Bin bowed to the camera and expressed his apologies to the audience.
With the result, the media reporter also let Chen Bin leave.
Now, a very real question is put in front of everyone in the Star Spirit Empire, who should hold the post of prime minister.
This dilemma was something that no one expected, and it came too suddenly.
