Chapter 293: The Contradiction between the Cabinet and the Imperial Power
"You should trust me, I can take you to the international airport, my pilot is also a life, I can't let his life go unchecked. [Ran^Text^Library] [ ] Read the novel to the net c"
The robber still shook his head, seeing this result, Li Xiaohan was a little helpless, but she really couldn't let the people here leave like this, which was not in line with Li Xiaohan's character.
"I also ask the Countess to leave as soon as possible and inform His Majesty King Joseph, if things really go according to His Majesty's words, I think it will be impossible for you to leave again at that time, I hope you will think about King Joseph."
Joseph is the king, since he opened his mouth to threaten, then once the leader of the robbers did not do it, then he would definitely launch an intercontinental missile, because he needs to be responsible for his actions and words, a king who says not counts is something that Joseph himself cannot tolerate, he represents a country.
Looking at the time and thirteen minutes left, Li Xiaohan said with one last attempt: "The army outside will not allow you to take away any of the rich people here, they can't afford such a responsibility, the advice I said just now is your only way to live, how to choose is up to you!" â
After saying this, Li Xiaohan and Li Xiaoxi left the banquet hotel without hesitation, accompanied by the guards and more than a dozen women and young people who had spent huge amounts of money on them.
Li Xiaohan has already left, and the rest of the matter has nothing to do with her, she just ordered a guard to stay, and if the other party makes up her mind, then she will be responsible for leading the way and arranging for them to leave.
The Nord Kingdom, the Ministry of Defense is busy, and at the same time the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Cabinet are busy, and the heads of state and secretaries of state have turned on the phone, hoping that the Nord Kingdom can calm down, after all, the first atomic bomb of the United States has been removed. No country in the world has ever used the atomic bomb as a weapon.
"The United States is also calling?"
"That's right, Secretary of State's phone call, she hopes that you can restrain yourself and promise that the United States will do its best to help in this matter, even if there is no atomic bomb, it can still solve the problem within two hours."
Joseph didn't look back, and said coldly: "Is it only their army that is so powerful?" Replying to them, the Royal Vulture Legion of the Nord Kingdom is in no way weaker than the American Marines. â
"Straight, just say that?"
"Just say that!"
"This ...... Then I'll do it now. â
The year 2000 is coming, a new era, and wars will not break out again, so let the Nord Kingdom assert its strength!
This was Joseph's idea. But such an idea did not have a chance to be completed, because the other party actually chose to believe Li Xiaohan and gave up carrying any rich man. With a huge fortune, he left the port city on Li Xiaohan's private airliner for the Middle East.
The other party is so face-giving, and it is inconvenient for Joseph to kill them all in this kind of matter, not to mention that this organization can contain the US ** event base in the Middle East, which is only good for Nord and even the European Union, after all, the EU countries do not have much interest in the Middle East.
"I'm sorry!"
Li Xiaohan's apology came from the phone, and Joseph smiled and said, "I'm sorry for what we said." You and Xiaoxi should be frightened! â
"Nope. I know they don't dare hurt me. â
"This time you're lucky, if you switch to the Viper Order. Maybe now I should regret that the guards around you are too weak. â
This time it was the Governor's banquet, and no one expected ......"
"The more things like this, the more you need to be careful. Don't you understand that? â
Li Xiaohan listened to Joseph's chatter with a little happiness, and it has been a few years since the two of them were together, although they got together less and left more. But Li Xiaohan never felt that Joseph was too far away from him, as if, as if he missed him sometimes, but he could appear by his side in just a few hours.
âĻâĻ
Two months have passed since the extortion of the wealthy in Hong Kong City, and the Nord cabinet is very dissatisfied with Joseph's use of ICBMs without any negotiations.
"Your Majesty, we hope that you will delegate some military authority to the Ministry of Defence, and dictatorial control is not the right way for a country."
"We can understand that you want to ensure the interests of the royal family, but we want to give a little authorization to the Ministry of Defense for nuclear weapons, or if the Ministry of Defense, the Prime Minister, and the King need to jointly authorize it, it can be ......."
"Enough! The Nord Kingdom is the Nord Kingdom of the Ragnar family, the cabinet is only temporarily managed, nuclear weapons are the core of the Ragnar family, and the interests of the Ragnar family are the interests of the Nord Kingdom, and I don't want to repeat this a second time. â
After saying this, the contradiction between the imperial power and the cabinet became more and more intense, but this has nothing to do with the individual, the fierce contradiction is only the imperial power and the government, and it cannot be said that the cabinet ministers are loyal to Joseph, they are also for the development of the Nord kingdom.
"They have no selfish motives!"
This was Kate's first sentence after the cabinet members left sullenly, Joseph did not object but nodded in agreement: "It can only be said that they are not selfish, and in their hearts they still desire more rights." â
"This is also normal, after all, there is no more obvious manager than Prime Minister Nord and not a ruler, there is no military power, no judicial power is in the hands, and the restrictions are too great."
"What do you mean, you want to convince me to give them more rights?"
Joseph asked Kate teasingly, originally it was just a joke but he didn't expect Kate to really nod: "I hope you can add some power to the cabinet, because the monarchy is no longer suitable for the new century, and we will be outlawed sooner or later......"
"Kate, believe it or not, we have no way out!"
"There's no way back?"
Looking at the confusion on Kate's face, Joseph did not answer immediately but opened the window and said to Charlie, who was hesitant outside, "You explain it to your mother." â
Charlie, who was still thinking about whether to come in, heard this sentence and chose to enter the door directly, looking at Kate with a puzzled face and explaining: "This concession will make us lose power little by little in the future, and the constitutional monarchy may not be our final result." â
Joseph added: "The Nord Republic, this may be the Nord in 100 or 200 years." â
"No, it can't be!"
"Why is it impossible, because the citizens will think that we occupy too much, too much, the British constitutional monarchy, you don't know at all how much danger he takes, maybe a careless United Kingdom of England will become the Republic of England, the Republic of Scotland, even now...... The royal family also has the possibility of losing the crown at any time. â
"The Ragnar family occupies seventy percent of the economy of the Nord Kingdom, which is a rather terrifying number, we only have one way forward, we may decline in a hundred years, but we will maintain the glory of a hundred years, unless a miracle happens, it is only a matter of time before the Nord republic is formed."
Charlie was very worried when he said this, and so was Joseph, but they never thought that the future would go in a completely different direction, and the Nord Kingdom was not only not a republic, but even climbed the road of the emperor and the Celestial Empire.
If you can conquer religion to such an extent, you can be promoted to the Celestial Empire, such as China, or a certain country in the Middle East.
"Perhaps the canonization of Flender and Louis as princes was a wrong decision, as it would likely lead to the total annihilation of the Ragnar family in the future."
"Dad, it's just a title, if they are allowed to appear less often in the Nord Kingdom in the future, I believe they will still be able to maintain another team of Ragnar!"
"I hope so!"
Joseph was under a lot of pressure, especially after the incident that had just been close to forcing the palace, and Charlie was silent a lot after that day, because as the heir of the Nord Kingdom, he also had Joseph's pressure.
1997 passed like this, 1998 came, Christmas, Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, the Nord Kingdom was lively, Marceau's Olympic city had begun to be built, the economy of Western Sahara was still growing gradually, China has been regarded as the number one competitor by the United States, most of the attention is on China, and the European Union has quietly developed.
Russia? Russia is still licking the wounds left by the Soviet Union, and it can be expected that no matter how much Russia develops in the future, it will not regain its strength during the Soviet period, because many lost things can never be returned, and how can Russia be an opponent of the United States alone?
"Now we have two choices in front of us, the first is to take these provinces, and the second is to continue to develop like this."
As the influence of the Nord Kingdom in Africa increased dramatically and its influence on several neighboring countries grew, one problem after another began to be placed in front of Joseph, making him very entangled and unsure of what to do.
"I don't recommend merging a few provinces into the Nord Kingdom, Dad!"
"Why?"
"There are several reasons, the first province that needs to be merged is not much larger than that of Western Sahara, governance is a difficult problem, and blindly increasing the army will not be of much benefit to us, it will only lead to an increase in military spending. Second, they are only a simple increase in territory and population for the Nord Kingdom, which is not much benefit to our economy, so it is better to keep them as a buffer zone. â
There is one thing Charlie didn't say, that is, if they are not Nord citizens, how the economy, salary, and welfare are what the Nord Kingdom does not need to care, but once they become the Nord Kingdom, the placement of these citizens will be in front of the Nord Kingdom Cabinet and Joseph.
