Chapter 35: Dissolution of the Congress
Watching the guards send off the cabinet, Ferdinand also breathed a deep sigh of relief. After all, he was still supported by Stam Bolov, and Ferdinand was really unwilling to go this far if it wasn't necessary.
But politics is so cruel that he can't afford to take half a step back. Even so, Ferdinand chose to show mercy to his men.
Ignoring the surprise of the crowd, Ferdinand continued: "Gentlemen, now you can withdraw your gaze. The Cabinet of Ministers led by Mr. Stam-Bolov, whose preliminary work is still visible to all, has made an outstanding contribution to the development of Bulgaria, may God bless them with a speedy recovery! ”
"As for the later work, the reason for the hesitation and illness may have interfered with their consciousness and did a lot of stupid things against their hearts! However, I believe that everyone will not worry about the patient, the Bulgarian people are tolerant and will definitely forgive them! ”
"According to the Bulgarian Constitution, now the cabinet no longer exists, and in order to deal with the next work, I decided to organize a temporary cabinet until the end of this term, in the re-election!"
The Liberals' faces changed dramatically, and Ferdinand was much displeased that he did not give them a chance to form a new government.
Many people are starting to move, and the crowd that has been suppressed by Stam Bolov for a long time is now impatient.
"Your Excellency, shouldn't we be free to form a court?" Holmes stood up and questioned Ferdinand
Other Liberal MPs also expressed their dissatisfaction, as if they would not give up without a reason.
Before Ferdinand could speak, another councillor jumped out. Archbishop Sclement, a member of the Church Council, immediately stood up and argued: "According to the Bulgarian Constitution, His Excellency is completely legal in doing so! ”
"Since the previous cabinet repeatedly violated the constitution, if it were not for the determination that Stam Bolov and others, who were already mentally ill, they should now go to jail! The Liberal Party has failed to stop the illegal acts of the Cabinet and has lost the right to continue to form a Cabinet. ”
Immediately won the support of a group of parliamentarians, and the Stamm government's reign of terror had long been dissatisfied with them.
If the Liberal Party continues to be in power, who knows if it will continue to purge dissidents, and maybe one day he will be taken away by the police.
It is better to choose to support Ferdinand, at least not enemies, and they can cooperate with each other, and maybe they can also get a place in the cabinet.
The two sides quarreled, with the Liberal Party MPs outnumbered and the opposition holding high the banner of the law and arguing on the grounds.
Ferdinand immediately slapped the table and roared, "Silence! ”
"This is the Congress, not the vegetable market, whoever wants to make trouble again, get out of here!"
"Now I declare that the Liberal Party is now disqualified from being in power because it has violated the constitution several times during its time in power! At the same time, due to the arrest of several members of parliament, the number of members of the National Assembly is less than three-quarters, and I have decided to dissolve the National Assembly and hold new elections! ”
Hearing this news, the faces below were different, with joy and worry.
The Liberal MPs' faces immediately changed dramatically, and they all knew that they had lost their reputation because of the wanton actions of the Stamm government, and there was no chance of victory.
Just now, everyone was busy fighting for power and profit, and they never thought that Ferdinand would directly draw his salary. You must know that the Liberal Party has always been the main force supporting Ferdinand's succession, and most of the other political forces in Bulgaria are pro-Russian, and they have been his opponents before.
But politics is such a comedy! Before Ferdinand succeeded to the throne, the pro-Russian faction was opposed to him.
Now that the big picture has been decided, Ferdinand is already the legitimate Grand Duke of Bulgaria, and the basis for the opposition of the pro-Russian faction no longer exists.
On the contrary, it was the Liberal Party that had previously supported Ferdinand that became a stumbling block on his way to power.
The point is that the Liberals, who did not wake up in time, still used him as a rubber stamp, and now it is a tragedy.
The other parliamentarians, on the other hand, showed a triumphant gaze. The powerful Stamm cabinet fell ill en masse, and the Liberal Party collapsed.
Bulgaria's political landscape is about to face a major reshuffle. This is a godsend for them, and if they don't take action, they will have their heads in water.
Ferdinand looked at the chaotic crowd, didn't say anything, and left the venue directly. He knew that when the massacre was exposed, the Liberals would be truly finished.
In order to avoid suspicion, the news cannot leak out from him, but can only go with the flow and let it spread freely.
A street tabloid in Sofia, which had already been in print, was forced to close its doors some time ago due to the government's crackdown.
was lucky to be targeted by Fuhu, and then he was co-opted, ran away in time, and escaped.
Now it's time to show your worth to the new boss, and the revelation of the massacre is the first bullet.
At first, the workers were hesitant, but when they saw the photos of the massacre, they were angry with the government and immediately went to work.
Just like the new boss said, if the news is exposed, the Grand Duke will dissolve the cabinet when he sees it, and the arrogant and domineering policemen will be unlucky, and everyone will be able to live a good life.
The former members of parliament, who had just left the door of Congress, received this appalling news, and many people were stunned!
People who were still skeptical are now saying that the cabinet members are really crazy, otherwise who would dare to do this? Tens of thousands of people were killed at one time, and they were not ordinary people.
It can be imagined that as soon as the news of Ferdinand's dismissal of the cabinet and the dissolution of parliament came out, he could gain a large wave of popularity.
Back at the palace, Ferdinand's nervous heart finally relaxed. Just now he was really worried about the scandal of the parliamentarians beating the king.
Fortunately, nothing happened. Now you can rest assured that the Liberals have reached the point where everyone is shouting and beating.
The opposition will certainly not mind and give them the hat of the butcher's party. When the catastrophe came, they flew separately, and now they were too busy to take care of themselves, and they had no time to find Ferdinand's bad luck.
"I hate to press the gold thread year after year, and make wedding clothes for others." This sentence is a good explanation of Stam's current mood, working hard to bear the infamy, but Ferdinand is sitting back and enjoying it.
Embarking on the road to Vienna, Stamm-Bolov has a bit of a "five-mile wandering" connotation. He knew that if there were no accidents, he would never have the chance to set foot on this land again in this life.
Things don't end so easily, so many people die, the government always has to have an explanation. The Cabinet had been sent away, and although Ferdinand had been given a mental name, he did not think it was over.
There are so many government officials, and there are always a few of them to be responsible. There is also that huge amount of property, and there are not a few people who want to pay attention.
