"From the moment he stepped into the headquarters of the Lisbonto Business Alliance, no one could stop Sokutus Stella's counterattack, and no one knew that behind this graceful woman stood a huge bloodthirsty monster, which was the main reason for the reorganization of the Council of Deacons of the Business League in the spring of that year" - from the second chapter of the third volume of the Imperial Storm

"Miss Dailan, please pay attention to your words and deeds, do you think it is still ...... before?"

Like a rabbit with its tail stepped on, Anduinfi suddenly stood up from his seat, his eyes were bloodshot and he looked at Sokutus Delan, his angry face hurt as if he had been slapped in the face, is this woman crazy? Saying such arrogant and domineering words in front of the other deacons, do you really think it is still the same time as before? If it weren't for restraint, Anduinfeld would have shouted at the guards to drive this woman out.

"It's all quiet, and in order to show fairness and reasonableness, the deacon council voted on the thirteenth deacon in advance!" said Deacon Longli, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting, in an unexpected voice

"Takashi!" Several deacons were slightly stunned, their eyes all looked at a middle-aged man with a generous face sitting on the upper seat, and then they couldn't help but sigh in unison, even the always fair Longli threw himself into Anduffyne, it seems to be a foregone conclusion, this deacon meeting only ten deacons participated, and He Ruile, who has always been regarded as the pawn of the thirteenth deacon, is still in the distant port of Kailo to participate in the first negotiation between the empire and Hero, the scheming Pollock, went to the imperial capital in the north more than a month ago, nominally to buy the materials of this winter and spring, it is simply a clear statement that he is not willing to wade into this troubled water, "You don't need to inform that woman, do you? Anyway, after tomorrow, that woman will be a historical term! Do you all want to see a weeping woman throwing her hair around?" said before the meeting, Andofine, who was in charge of the affairs of the Lisbonto Business Alliance, said that if it were not for such a situation, such an important meeting of deacons. How could the thirteenth deacon who had the right to adjugate be deliberately omitted, this can be said to be the declaration of war by the deacon of the entire business alliance against the thirteenth deacon, in this case, who would be willing to stand up for this woman?

"I do this for everyone to make better money in the future, and I always wear a big hat of the empire, so that everyone can't make money happily. Isn't a businessman just a person who rushes around in pursuit of maximizing profits, why should he care too much about so many rules and regulations, sometimes he needs to do something that is not profitable at all, this woman is the nemesis of the businessman, and if the thirteenth deacon is not eliminated, the merchant will never become the master!" Andufine's words were indeed very provocative, and the deacon's council had already formed a camp under Andufine's wooing and persuasion, and five of the nine deacons expressed their approval of the abolition of the thirteenth deacon's mention. Although the remaining four are waiting, this is enough to decide a qiē, everyone is not a fool, and no one likes the feeling of being stuck in the throat. If the power to overthrow the thirteen deacons was strong enough, the four deacons would not hesitate to vote for Andofine

"In the name of the deacon of the Business Alliance, I will raise yì and cancel the position of the thirteenth deacon," a sinister smile appeared at the corner of Andufiin's mouth, and he was still a little worried about this woman's appearance. It would shake the other deacons, but this superficial woman turned against the anger of the crowd as soon as she came, and if she found any random person, she could take her place. Isn't that also the same as the other deacons, in this case, even the deacon who remained neutral in front of him will have no choice to stand by his side at this moment, this stupid woman! Big-breasted and brainless! Eyes sweeping over Sokutus Delan are like looking at a sheep to the slaughter, isn't it good for people to stay outside and wait for the result? Why go in now to find humiliation?

"Isn't that too much?"

Some people were puzzled, this meeting was already under control, the faces of the other deacons were angry, calm, and pretending to be thoughtful, most of the deacons who came from all sides knew what was going on, but they deliberately pretended not to know, anyway, it was not themselves who offended people,

"Accept it, please vote!" At this moment, Takashiri, who was in charge of supporting the meeting, said categorically, they are all sophisticated characters, in this world full of power, the word fairness is not as clean as a fig leaf, everyone is smart, and some things are not clear.

In the silent hall, candles burning from the splendid ceiling shone on the faces of each deacon, and were distributed to everyone by the attendants as voting instruments

"Let's start voting!" Anduinfi spread out the voting book in front of him, picked up the quill on the table and wrote his name fluently, and then closed it and handed it to Takashiri, who was presiding over the meeting, "How long are you going to be stuck by a woman's neck? Or do you feel uncomfortable taking off the chain? If it's because you're afraid of being the first to sign, then I'll do it."

With Anduffine as an example, the other deacons also began to boldly open the resolution in front of them, although they knew that this woman was no longer beautiful, but the hands of the deacons holding the quills still trembled slightly,

"In that case, let's start voting!" The cold female voice once again stunned all the deacons, it was so crazy that it was Sokutus Delan who had already been positioned as a loser who said this, it was incredible, this woman couldn't have lost her mind!

"Miss Delan, as a party, you have no right to speak," said a deacon who had followed Anduffyne to submit the vote with a disdainful look

"So, have I even been deprived of the right to speak?" Sokutus Delan's eyes were full of coldness, and the people she saw invariably turned their heads away, and some people with weak hearts bowed their heads under her gaze, Sokutus Delan's calm face did not fluctuate in the slightest, but there was a trace of imperceptible cold light in her moonlit eyes

"You can file a representation after the resolution"

Longli, who was in charge of supporting the resolution, was still unhurried, with an imperceptible flame flashing in his eyes, you also have today! Broken jars, broken and broken, or decided to fight to the death, but also hideous? Why bother, is it not good to quietly leave the stage that does not belong to you? Just like a curtain call to the audience after a dance, everyone may not be stingy with a few mocking applause, even if they are no longer the thirteenth deacon, relying on their tough military background. Everyone will still give some face in the future.

"Appeal, do you want to make a representation to the person who voted for such a vote, what are you kidding!" Sokutus Delan's cold face suddenly smiled, and he picked up the vote on his desk with his fingers and tore it to pieces one by one, which made the atmosphere of the entire venue drop to freezing point, "This is my appeal, I declare with the power of the thirteen deacons that those who have voted for the resolution will be deprived of the power of the deacon of the business alliance from now on"

"It's so damnable!"

"It's so arrogant, who does she think she is!" Several deacons belonging to Anduffyne's camp had already jumped up in anger, depriving themselves of their deacon's powers, and breathed a big sigh. Andofine was sneering, he had already decided that this woman was crazy before she died, and in the noisy hall, several neutral deacons were now facing heavy as water

They didn't say yes, they didn't disagree, in this woman they had seen too much impossible,

The deacons of the business alliance have been twelve in succession, except for the normal rotation. Among them, there are more than five who collapsed at the peak because of this woman, and there are many ruthless characters among them, but they all hit their heads in front of this woman, and the business alliance is a sharp sword of the empire. It is also the most powerful weapon for the expansion of the empire,

The huge business network involves countless families, and the interests of the forces are where they are. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the lifeblood of the empire, and whoever controls the business alliance is undoubtedly equivalent to having the power that can dominate all the big families in the empire. Whether it is a private wealthy merchant or an imperial general, how can such a net be handed over to the businessman himself? Anduffy's behavior at this moment is more like dancing on a tightrope that is destined to break, and he does not need to be so stupid as to fall and fall to pieces! This woman will never do something that she is not sure of, just like the Kang Lexing incident a few years ago, thinking that she has faced the wind and spread her wings...... , but after a gorgeous float, another qiē burst like a bubble, the previous silence, the explosion at the last moment, single-handedly reversed the whole situation, this woman's means have always been at the moment of decision

"My lord, something happened" A staff member of the business alliance hurriedly ran in, out of breath, Anduffine's pupils constricted unnaturally, this staff member was his subordinate, which made his still somewhat smug face look a little ugly,

"It's the Imperial Inspectorate, they've sealed off the entire building!"

That staff member is pale, the name of the Imperial Supervision Department is really a little too big, even if it is the imperial military, they dare not offend the Imperial Supervision Department, let alone the business alliance,

"How can this be"

Anduffine's figure shook, feeling a little whirlwind, his eyes were full of horror and looked at Sokutus Deran, it was too ruthless, if it was the Imperial Military that was dispatched, at least there was room for a loop, but in the hands of the Imperial Supervision Department, no matter how innocent the family was, it would be like digging out of the sludge and unable to defend itself, not to mention being able to climb to the position of the deacon of the Business Alliance, that one would be innocent, as long as the Imperial Supervision Department wanted to investigate, what could not be found out, if it fell into the hands of the Supervision Department, it would be death, and it would be better to die with all kinds of stigma, rather than this...... Anduffin's face was gray, and the corners of his mouth smiled bitterly,

"Your Excellency Longli, I heard that you always carry a bottle of the best grassland wine with you all year round, I wonder if you can let me drink a little too" Andufein looked at Longli expectantly, "Your Excellency Andufein, you know the ...... wine" Longli was stunned for a moment, he was a vassal merchant of the nobility, according to tradition, every vassal merchant will carry a bottle of poisoned wine, the effect is that after their goods are looted by bandits, they can calmly cut themselves off to show loyalty to their master, since the unification of the Falcon Empire, this kind of vassal merchant has disappeared, but there is still a tradition

"One bite, just one bite!" Andufiin licked his chapped lips, his eyes flashed with a terrifying light, and the loud sound of army leather boots going upstairs could already be heard outside, and all the other deacons were silent,

"In this way, I can't be stingy!" Ryori smiled bitterly and took out a small sky-blue glass bottle from his chest pocket, and most of the turquoise liquid was shaking in it.

It looks like a pretty vintage thing, it's been too long, and I don't know if the taste has deteriorated, but it doesn't matter.

Andufi opened the bottle and drank it all, it was so unpalatable that the thought flashed through his mind, and a sharp burning pain hit his whole body. It was like an awl stabbing him in the heart, like a sledgehammer smashing hard into his chest. It's like being suffocated by drowning, like being burned at the stake, like poison turning over the river and sea in the body, like the skin being slammed into pieces...... How he wished it was just a dream......" (To be continued......
