All of those councillors came up to line up for the election. There are 400 MPs, so according to the plan, they will vote. And the 400 MPs is actually an even number, that is, an even number, and their 400 MPs are an even number, which is actually deliberate. Generally speaking, it is very difficult to encounter exactly the same number of votes in the election process, and it is very rare to have exactly the same number of votes. Of course, if the top two people fail to get 50% in the election, the top two will be held in a second election. Or if both of them get 50% each, then the final vote will be decided by the incumbent emperor. However, in this place, the emperor is about the same status as the vice president of the United States, and although they have the power to preside over the parliament, they do not actually have the power to vote directly. The final vote can only be made in the event of a reciprocal deadlock between the two sides, which normally have no right to vote.

Soon, one by one, the councillors went up to vote. The first member voted in front of Siu Hongsheng, while the second member voted in front of Shi Maozhou. And it seems that it is the same as negotiating, the odd number of parliamentarians voted in front of Xiao Hongsheng, and the even number of parliamentarians voted in front of Shi Maozhou, and the degree of tacit understanding between the two sides is simply amazing. If future generations look at this election, they will definitely scold that there is a shady scene, and the shady screen is big. The shady scene in this is definitely huge, needless to say. But at least with the election process, then progress can be made! At least everyone has to hold elections, otherwise how can there be any real democracy?

And these positions soon passed more than a hundred people, and more than a hundred people all used the odd number to vote for Xiao Hongsheng and the even number to vote for Shi Mao Zhou. As for the rest, the third party, the Conservatives, they are the professional chaperones. There wasn't even a single ballot in front of him, which made that Zhang Zhidong's face a little unbearable.

"Master Zhang, this is too ......," Zhang Zhidong's secretary said with some embarrassment.

And Zhang Zhidong's face was also weird, although he knew that he would definitely come to accompany him this time, Wang Guorui would not really give him the position of prime minister. No matter how much there is a contradiction between the Democratic Restoration Party and the Huafu Party, they are all people who started with Wang Guorui. They are all the disciples and grandchildren of that Ouyang Xuan, so they are consistent in defending the "Fruits of Victory". He may be able to accept that the other side has taken the prime minister's position, but he will never allow the Conservatives to steal it. was snatched away by the Democratic Restoration Party (Huafu Party), that is also meat rotten in the pot, not afraid of anything. But it was snatched away by the Conservatives, and it really lost the "fruits of victory", how can it be the result of so many years of hard work? So they just ignore those guys, so according to the previous discussions, no one will vote for them at all.

"That's it. Neither of us is their match anyway. Let's take a look and talk about it then! All we have to do is make our voices heard, and we just need to let the new emperor know about our existence so that they can't completely ignore our interests. As for everything else, it's good that we're able to have this result. Can we still ask for too much? So what we can count on is that Wang Guorui will focus on the stability of the country and not try to make too many changes, so that we can get a stable over. Zhang Zhidong said.

Voting is still ongoing. From the first vote to the more than 300 votes in the back, they all voted for Xiao Hongsheng according to the odd number of parliamentarians. Councillors with even numbers voted for Shi Mao Zhou. According to the results agreed by the two sides before, that is, among the 400 parliamentarians, the Democratic Restoration Party and the Huafu Party each have 200 votes, and in the end, according to the process, the emperor decides who will be the prime minister. However, this is also for the sake of sycophancy, and then this can be regarded as sycophancy, and then Wang Guorui's authority can be maintained without violating the so-called election rules. Wang Guorui can also choose the prime minister of his choice according to his own ideas.

So this election is nothing more than a pre-negotiated process, anyway, everyone already knows the results, don't worry about anything. However, this is for that Zhang Zhidong. It was a slap in the face!

"Lord Zhang, you didn't get a single vote!" The secretary said with a wry smile.

And Zhang Zhidong felt that his face was hot, he came to the election this time, isn't this just sending his face to Wang Guorui and beating them? This time it was really embarrassing, because they didn't get a single vote, so they all felt very embarrassed. As a person who is interested in the election, as a party that participated in the election, and the last vote was not obtained, it is really a shame. And a party that doesn't even get a single vote really doesn't exist.

If we go on according to the process this time, 400 votes were cast for Shi Maozhou and Xiao Hongsheng with 200 votes each, but the Conservative Party headed by Zhang Zhidong did not get a single vote, wouldn't it be a shame to lose face to the whole country and the world? At that time, everyone would have wondered, does your party still have the meaning of existence? didn't even have a vote, it really made people laugh at it as a treasure of the world. Zhang Zhidong has been an official for many years, and when he saw this situation, he also felt hot on his face.

"Well, who made it impossible for us to beat them? Who let us not beat them, we don't have the strength! If you have the strength, where is the use of being humiliated here? Even, we don't have to be elected, it's better to govern directly. Now that the strength can't beat others, then naturally you have to suffer the result of failure. At the end of the day, we're all losers, all losers! This world is always the world of winners, where is the status of us losers! Zhang Zhidong thought with a wry smile.

If you fail, you must be prepared to be humiliated. Since ancient times, there have been several losers who have not been humiliated, but for the sake of their own lives, their own interests, and even for the interests of those classes behind them, they have to endure this shame, and then they are slapped in the face, and they are also spit on them, obviously to spit on their own consciousness. If a loser can't even do it himself, then you are waiting to be beheaded, or even to your family.

In this world, there is always a winner, and a loser may be said to be a tragic hero by future generations, but since the word pathos is added, it is not a good result. So they naturally have to be patient, even if Wang Guorui slapped them in the face in this election, they all have to endure.

When the last few votes came to the election, everyone still voted according to the plan, with the odd number voting for Xiao Hongsheng and the even number voting for Shi Maozhou. And after the 399th member has just started voting, it is ready to go to the 400th member to vote.

And when the 400th councilor was just about to vote for Shi Maozhou, he was stopped by Wang Guorui with his eyes.

The councillor didn't know what was going on, and saw Wang Guorui's eyes, but he didn't dare to vote, he didn't know what Wang Guorui meant. But then, Wang Guorui looked at Zhang Zhidong with his eyes, and then pouted, telling him where he should vote. Only then did the councilor understand what Wang Guorui meant, and he directly gave up voting for Shi Maozhou, and then came to Zhang Zhidong to vote. Soon, Zhang Zhidong also won this only vote.

Now, the counting of votes has begun, and Xiao Hongsheng, chairman of the Chinese Baath Party, has received 200 votes, just over half. The chairman of the National Renaissance Party, Shi Maozhou, received 199 votes, and the chairman of the Conservative Party, Zhang Zhidong, received one vote. According to the election rules, Xiao Hongsheng, chairman of the Chinese Renaissance Party, won the ......" The host looked at Wang Guorui, obviously this is different from the previous process.

After getting Wang Guorui's nod, the host announced: "The first prime minister of the Yanhuang Empire is Xiao Hongsheng!" ”

And although everyone felt a little surprised, Wang Guorui would actually express his meaning through this method and let Xiao Hongsheng serve as the first prime minister. It was considered to have given the Conservative Party a vote, at least it did not let the Conservative Party's Zhang Zhidong get no vote, and his face was swollen alive.

"Your Majesty, are you going to choose Xiao Hongsheng as the prime minister?" Jun Ji-hyun asked.

Wang Guorui nodded and said, "Yes!" At present, we still need to focus on social reform and economic development and consolidating the industrial base, and other cultures can be slightly secondary. So at present, the economy is still relatively important, so I plan to let Xiao Hongsheng, who is more good at economic development, be the first prime minister. ”

"Then why give those Conservative guys a vote?" Jun Ji-hyun asked.

Wang Guorui said: "I think, our food appearance should not be too ugly! If the appearance is too ugly, then what will Danshu Qingshi say about us in the future? ”

If Wang Guorui doesn't give Zhang Zhidong a vote, it means that Zhang Zhidong will be embarrassed and embarrassed, and people outside will know that Wang Guorui and they deliberately made it. Although everyone knows that this election is largely a black-box operation, Wang Guorui doesn't want everyone to feel that he looks too ugly. Although you have to eat, you have to be civilized, and it feels like it's really like that. After all, China is a country of etiquette, and eating goodbye is too ugly! Since the dynasties, the new court must show its good side, fair and generous side, and not make itself too ugly. (To be continued.) )
