Chapter 123: The Position of Elder
The ruling system of the fox clan is considered a parliamentary system, each elder has a vote, and any major matters affecting the tribe are decided by the council. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The silver-blooded tribe was originally cobbled together by multiple fox races, and the royal family had the power to lead, but the original tribal chief refused to give up the power in his hands, so this parliamentary system was naturally formed. It is worth mentioning that the Queen's vote is equivalent to 8 votes, and a thing, as long as the number of negative votes is greater than 10, then it cannot pass. In other words, as long as the queen does not agree, it is basically impossible to carry out all of them.
And the bestowal of the position of elder is very exquisite.
Only the big people in the tribe, who represent the power of one side, can become elders.
There are 20 elders in the hall, and each of them represents the strength of their own family or race. Most of them are descendants of the chieftains of the various tribes before the Silverblood tribes merged.
Every person who does this has an influence and dominance in the tribe.
The issue suddenly raised by the queen, although Du Ge has made great contributions, but behind him, there is no support that can be called a force. More crucially, he is a man.
The Silver-Blood Tribe doesn't know how many years it has been, and no man has ever entered the elder layer, a precedent for this top-level power level.
If Duge is a woman, then the queen simply recommended a member of the Wang clan to enter the elder layer, and Duge's merits are also worthy of this reward, plus the blood of the royal family. It will be a very easy thing to pass. However, the key point is that the song is male.
Then some of them eventually brought up some colored glasses, and contempt and doubts followed.
Duge felt that the queen's proposal was a bit hasty.
He sat quietly in his seat without saying a word, and he felt that the identity of the elder did not matter. His goal is to be the leader here, and these elders with a voting right are always his stumbling block, to get rid of the false existence. He didn't care if he was an elder now. Just looking at the bustle of the hall, the two groups of people who are fighting red-faced.
To his surprise, there were more people who supported him than he expected, half of them. He had expected that the elders would protest against this issue.
After listening for a while, he roughly summed up the thoughts of the next two groups.
"There are rewards for merit, and what Du Ge proposed is to change the existence of the tribe, whether it is planting or salt factory, it will make the tribe as a whole rise to a higher level. Especially for planting, if the final yield really matches the prediction, then our position in the Orc Alliance will be completely reversed, following the Great Clan sequence. Salt is the icing on the cake, and prosperity has finally arrived. And all of this is the width of Tudu Ge, and the position of an elder is not worthy of this feat. "That's what the supporters think.
"You have done a great job, very good, and we praise you very much. But to get into the power circles, you are male, no talk. The trajectory of the fox clan since ancient times, how can men intervene in the power of the court, like child's play? Is that the view of the naysayers?
One side is to praise the merits as the attack, and the other side is to defend the unbreakable ancient traditions, and justice is endless.
"Silence!"
At last, the queen knocked on the table, and silence returned to the hall.
"Now, vote."
"Agreed." "Against." "Agreed." "Abstain." ā¦ā¦
After a round of voting turned down.
"With 11 votes in favor, 2 abstentions, and 7 against, the proposal was adopted."
The Queen's seal slammed heavily on the table, and Melissa announced loudly with a smile on her face.
"Congratulations to Duge for becoming the 21st Elder. Of course, he is also the first male elder in the history of the fox clan. ā
The hall was noisy again, and Du Ge was a little stunned this time, he didn't expect it to really pass. Before he could say anything, he was surrounded by a crowd of elders.
Those were the elders who voted yes and came forward to congratulate.
In the face of goodwill, Du Ge smiled back and silently counted those who voted for it.
Anyway, without them. This proposal is not passable, although Duge does not care about the status of the elder, he cares more about the meaning of the yes vote, indicating that those people recognize and accept him. Unaffected by gender, look at him with colored glasses.
"No!! What qualifies a lowly manservant to be an elder! These proposals cannot be passed! ā
The old woman named Sadi, who had been following the queen all along, had a shrill and piercing voice again, and she pointed at Duge and screamed and reprimanded. Believing in a lifelong tradition and strict observance of etiquette, she could not accept Duge becoming an elder as a man.
The queen narrowed her eyes and looked at the openly shouting Sadi in the council, and asked in a cold tone, "Are you questioning the decision for a while?" ā
As soon as these words came out, the unkind eyes of the elders who voted for it immediately focused on Shati.
The stereotypical old woman also reacted immediately, doing what she shouldn't have done and openly questioning the decision of the council. Fine cold sweat suddenly crept up her forehead, and she hurriedly shook her hand in denial.
"No, no, no, I didn't mean that, I just ......"
"That's enough, stand down. This is the end of today's meeting, Du Ge stays, and everyone else retreats. ā
Queen Melissa waved her hand with an impatient expression, squinted her eyes and leaned on the throne, her tone sternly commanding without question.
The elders were ordered to retreat.
After a while, only Du Ge was left in the hall.
Without outsiders, Queen Melissa was solemn and majestic, and the noble and elegant image of the queen immediately collapsed. Wave to the song with a playful smile. Du Ge sighed helplessly, walked to Queen Melissa's side, and was pulled into her arms, so that she could get on the full and round jade legs.
"Xiao Duge, how about this reward?"
"It doesn't matter if you are an elder...... Woo......"
Du Ge's indifferent tone was halfway through his speech, and the reason was that with red lips, the dissatisfied queen stretched out her jade hand and ravaged the acupuncture points on his tail. In order to prevent his poor tail from being subjected to inhumane kneading, Du Ge immediately chose to change his tune.
"I'm so happy! Very happy! Elder status! ā
The queen let go of her hand with satisfaction, and began to talk about the meaning of Duge becoming an elder.
"When you become an elder, you get rid of the status of a valet. Although you previously had the status of a moonlight samurai, you are only a samurai. After having the status of an elder, he officially entered the power class of the fox clan, and in the future, you will come to vote for the major political affairs of the tribe, but it~"
The queen said that she stopped here, stretched out her onion finger and flicked the nose of Dandu Song and continued: "Now you still have to listen to me~ Let you vote for what you can do, you will vote for me." ā
"Got it, got it."
Covering his nose when he was suddenly attacked, Wataru struggled to get up and get out of the clutches of the queen. But he was immediately forcibly held down by the queen, and after discovering that Du Ge resisted the intention of escaping, the queen 'ravaged' even more ruthlessly.
Song ...... This can be endured, now in the tribe, the only thing he can't resist is the queen.
"In the future, if you have the status of an elder, it will be easy for me to give you any task, and you don't have to be limited by your identity."
"Mainly for this?"
"Yes, the farming department wanted to take care of it for you, but there were too many people who opposed it at that time, so I had to give up. Well, go and make preparations for the long house, it's still a long way to the beach. ā
"Hmm."
"I've been with Erwei for the past few days, she can't leave the tribe now."
