Chapter 480: Who's Against It

Before entering the council chamber, Leo actually had a lot of ideas, such as sowing discord, framing people, pulling one faction to fight another, and so on. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

These methods are not above board, but Leo will not feel guilty about using them, because he knows very well in his heart that his opponents will definitely use these methods against him if they find an opportunity.

But the moment he stepped into the council chamber, Leo changed his mind.

Because he suddenly found himself seemingly overestimating today's opponent.

Who are these guys in the council chamber? They're just a bunch of dogs that are about to become Roger's men.

And who is Roger? Roger is just a person who has to rely on Leo to have power, and his power comes entirely from Leo's support, in this case, Leo said that Roger would never dare to go west if he went east.

In other words, Leo is here today to help his subordinate Roger subdue Roger's group of disobedient dogs.

It's natural to use some tricks when people fight, but isn't it a bit redundant to think about people and dogs?

So Leo decided to solve the problem by the most direct means - violence.

As things stand, Leo is halfway there.

These core members of the Golden Feather Parrot family don't look like some kind of backbone people, and when Roger's second uncle Andrew and his group of supporters, including his son, are beaten all over the place, no one dares to stand up for them.

If it was because these people wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, then at this moment, Leo had already stabbed Roger to the position of the head of the family and sat down, but the opposition was still not loud enough, which obviously only made Leo lower his evaluation of the members of the Golden Feather Parrot family in front of him again.

It seems that the civil official family is indeed lacking some backbone than the military general's family.

These guys aren't even a pack of dogs, they can at least bite and bark a few times, and these guys are obviously bullied to the head, but they are as quiet as a pack of little sheep.

You must know that in Leo's heart, he intends to cultivate Roger and the Golden Feather Parrot family into a force that is loyal to him, but so far, the performance of this force has disappointed Leo quite a lot.

Leo looked around the chamber and said, "Who is for and who is against?" ”

The voices for and against were equally sparse, adding up to not even a fifth of the total number of people in the chamber, and most people still did not seem to have a mind as to what position to take.

But Leo's body is very weak at the moment, and every extra moment of standing is a burden for him, especially if he wants his words to spread throughout the council hall, so Leo's patience is very limited: "If no one has objected yet, then this matter is decided." ”

Just then, a voice rang out. "I'm against it!"

Leo turned his gaze in the direction from which the voice came from, and saw that it was an old man of about sixty years old, and judging from the position of the man's seat, he was clearly one of the six qualified to succeed to the throne of the head of the family, along with Roger.

Roger whispered a presentation to Leo: "This is my uncle Edwin, the head of the Ministry of the Interior, and also qualified to vote at the election meeting. ”

Leo nodded, and said to Edwin, "Give me your reasons." ”

"Roger is too young, and he is not fully familiar with and mastered the affairs of the family, so it may not be appropriate to inherit the position of head of the family."

Leo couldn't help but laugh: "Then according to your meaning, it should be best for you to be the head of this family?" ”

Everyone could hear Leo's words as complete mockery, but Edwin nodded very seriously: "That's right, I do think so. ”

Edwin looked assured.

Leo suddenly asked, "Do you know who I am?" ”

Edwin nodded: "You are the special envoy Leo sent by His Majesty the Pope to participate in the celebration activities. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an instant uproar in the conference hall.

Most of the people sitting here don't know Leo, but the name is familiar to them.

In today's Ridmar City, the name Leo is well known, and the reason is simple, because according to the legend in the city, the son of darkness who assassinated His Majesty the Emperor died at the hands of Leo.

That alone was enough for Leo to gain enough respect.

In addition, the conflict between Leo and the prime minister at the Ice Bear Mansion dinner last night, and the subsequent poisoning of the second prince, although only one night passed, had already spread among the aristocracy of the entire Ridmar City at a very alarming speed.

A guy who can avenge the emperor, dare to confront the prime minister head-on, and may even poison the wine of the second prince Julian, this is the impression that most people in the council hall have of Leo.

Therefore, in addition to respect, Leo also gained a lot of fearful glances.

But Leo didn't bother to pay attention to the other people's thoughts, but stared at Edwin tightly: "Since you know my identity, then you should know that Roger, the head of the family, is determined today." ”

"Nope." Edwin shook his head very resolutely and denied Leo's statement: "Ridmar City is not the Holy See, and the Golden Feather Parrot family is not an object that can be manipulated by you at will. ”

Leo couldn't help but sneer, "You have no right to represent the Golden Feather Parrot family, old man. Go straight and call out the guy who is behind you. ”

Edwin hesitated, but a man behind him had already stood up: "I've seen Lord Leo." ”

This is a middle-aged man who looks ordinary, but for some reason, Leo feels a very unusual aura from him, a faint oppressive force.

"Who are you?"

"On behalf of the Golden Lion Family, I offer you our respects."

There was another uproar in the council room, and even Roger's face, who originally thought that he had been ten or nine stable, changed involuntarily.

Most of the members of the Golden Feather Parrot family did not expect that Edwin, an elder who was usually quiet and low-key, would actually gain the support of the Golden Lion Family.

As the so-called hundred-legged insect dies but does not stiffen, the Golden Lion Family may not be as good as before, but it is still one of the top families in the Spany Empire.

As soon as they thought of this, many people couldn't help but look at Leo with a sense of schadenfreude. In their opinion, since the Golden Lion Family made a move, then Leo's defeat was predictable.

Leo's next question pushed this sentiment to the peak: "If I'm not mistaken, you should be a Sanctuary powerhouse, right?" ”

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Lord Leo has good eyesight, but I must state to you that the Golden Lion Family does not want to have any conflict with you. Andβ€”"

The middle-aged man paused, then continued, "That Sanctuary assassin beside you is no match for me. ”

"Oh?" Leo's eyebrows suddenly raised, and a smile crept up the corners of his mouth.

"One-on-one may be the winner, but what if it's three-on-one?"

Daisy and two Sanctuary Inquisitors suddenly appeared around the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's face changed again and again, and he finally bowed to Leo, and then walked away quickly.

At the moment when the middle-aged man left, Edwin's face was also pale, and he collapsed weakly in his chair.

The middle-aged man was not alone, at least thirty or forty people left after him, these people were all helpers invited by other heirs, they were not necessarily from the Golden Lion family, but they obviously did not intend to go against Leo in this matter.

Leo smiled slightly, and once again set his eyes on the people in the hall.

"Now, is there anyone still opposing Roger's succession to the position of head of the family?"

The entire chamber was silent.
