The patriarchs have always been served by some of the older knight-level powerhouses of the Lancet family, and these patriarchs are generally elders of various veins.

The Senate is also the body of these elders, and some conflicts of interest in each line are mainly mediated through the deliberations of the Senate.

After all, the Lancet family is a Houmen that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and the so-called Houmen is as deep as the sea when you enter it.

The seemingly calm Ransterhou Mansion is actually a complex relationship between China, with entangled interests and conflicts, and constant open and secret struggles, which is far from being as simple as the Hunt family.

Originally, the power of city management and the army was in the hands of the main family, that is, Marquis Wade, which was very strong.

And the Senate only has the purpose of coordination and persuasion, and does not have much real power, but now it wants to hold a meeting to decide the management of Drifting Snow City, and other things,

This is actually a naked desire to take advantage of the opportunity to seize power, and it is still the power in the hands of Lint,

When Marquis Wade set out on the expedition, he gave all the authority for the management of the city to Lint, but because Lint was not a knight, he could not be directly appointed as the lord of the city.

Because Marquis Wade himself has the strength of a peak knight, and he firmly controls the Jingbei Army in his hands, his will naturally no one dares to disobey in Drifting Snow City, at least no one dares to confront it openly.

With the endorsement of Marquis Wade, Lint can naturally play the role of the acting city lord of Drifting Snow City.

But now that the Jingbei army has been defeated in the wilderness, the Marquis of Wade is besieged in Fort Hel,

Marquis Wade's lineage, the eldest and the second two knight-level powerhouses have all gone out with the army, and now they don't know life and death, and the third is just a quasi-knight for the time being.

As for Lint, not to mention, I'm afraid that even an ordinary soldier can't beat it, and now that Marquis Wade doesn't even have a knight on his face, it's no wonder that some people are starting to get active.

"My rights, can I take them so easily?"

Understanding is understanding, but Lint is by no means a big-bellied person, because he can't cultivate since he was a child, Lint is actually more eager than others.

Never show the slightest weakness to be bullied, from childhood to adulthood, but anyone who dares to bully him has been cleaned up by Lint and has to beg for mercy, this time he dares to take advantage of the chaos to seize power, he has to leave a profound lesson to this group of old guys.

……

Lint's residence was not far from the Senate chamber, all in the same area, and it was not long before he was outside the chamber.

When the guards outside the door saw that it was Lint, they did not dare to stop him, so they let Lint and Sander enter the courtyard and came to the door of the council.

Just as the two of them were about to enter the council chamber, there was a few voices of people talking in the hall, and Lint heard the movement, waved his hand to Sander, and motioned for him to stop and not go in.

"The letter for help sent to the royal capital has not been answered."

"The royal capital is too far away, even if it is sent by the wind bird, it will take two days, and then wait for the royal capital to discuss the countermeasures, at least it will take a few days to do it."

"Then wait for news."

"We can't wait for news from the royal capital all the time, far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and we should send people to the river valley again."

"Well, this is the right reason, and I will send someone to the valley to ask for help later."

The person who presided over the meeting, Lint, was not familiar with it, but he also recognized that this was an old man in the third room, named Fury, who was a generation higher than the Marquis Wade.

When he was young, he also had the peak strength of knights, but now that he is old, he has some injuries on his body, and his strength is naturally not as good as before.

But although the strength has declined, the heart has always been hot, and there have been small actions over the years, wanting to grab some benefits.

Although Marquis Wade was a little bored, he was also surnamed Lancet, and he couldn't make any substantial threat, so he didn't take care of him.

I didn't expect him to jump so high this time, connecting many branch elders, and doing things to seize power.

"What did Ou Ze from the Fifth Legion say?"

Ou Ze is the commander of the Fifth Legion, the Fifth Legion has not been in the army for a long time, and the strength in all aspects is worse, and even the corps commander Ou Ze only has the peak strength of knights, and he is the only one among the commanders of the Jingbei Army who does not have the strength of a big knight.

Marquis Wade considered that the strength of the Fifth Legion was insufficient, and it was impossible for Drifting Snow City to be without a little garrison, so he left the Fifth Legion to guard Drifting Snow City to deal with some unexpected situations.

But now the Fifth Legion, which was originally the weakest, has now become the only regular army in Drifting Snow City, and in a sense, it has the ability to influence the situation in Drifting Snow City.

"Ozer hasn't expressed support for us yet, but he hasn't objected either."

"Then leave him alone, go and tell Lint to come over and tell him about the Senate's resolution."

Ou Ze's behavior is obviously to be a wall-riding faction,

But Fury didn't care, in Fury's mind, as long as Ou Ze could not help each other, without the support of the army,

Just with Lint's waste who can't cultivate, in front of the senate council, there will be no other result except for obediently restraining his hands, and the dozen or so senators sitting here are the combat power of more than a dozen knights.

What did Lint take to rebel against the Senate?

"No need to shout!"

Lint pushed open the door of the council chamber at this time, and strode in,

Sander followed closely beside Lint and stared fiercely at the veterans as he entered.

"I don't know what Elder Fury is looking for me."

Lint looked directly at Fury and asked,

Under Lint's sharp gaze, Fury was a little weak for a while,

But soon Fury reacted again,

Lin Te was obviously just a waste who couldn't cultivate, and he was afraid of what he would do.

Immediately, Fury Qiang cheered up and said in a rather strong tone:

"The collective resolution of the Senate has just been passed, and the next affairs of Drifting Snow City will be taken over by the Senate.

Calling you over is to inform you, and you don't have to worry about the rest of the matter. ”

"Oh? When the Marquis set out on the expedition, he ordered me to take full charge of the affairs of Drifting Snow City, and you want to take over Drifting Snow City, do you have the consent of the Marquis? ”

"Wade led the army to a great defeat, there is a big mistake, and our senators will come to correct his mistakes now."

In fact, whether defeated or not, if Marquis Wade has returned to Drifting Snow City, he would not dare to say that he would investigate Marquis Wade's fault if he borrowed Fury's courage.

However, now that Marquis Wade is trapped in Helburg, it is not certain whether he can come back, and Fury has spoken a lot harder.

"The immediate priority is to strengthen the defense of Drifting Snow City."

Elder Fury's words turned to the defense of Drifting Snow City.

In fact, the most important thing to consider now is how to relieve the siege of Fort Hel and rescue the trapped remnants of the army and the Marquis Wade.

As for the defense of Drifting Snow City?

With the ogre's ability to attack fortifications, as long as Grugersh's two heads don't go wrong together, he won't try to attack a fortified city like Drifting Snow City.

And when Fury said this, it was obvious that he wanted to directly abandon the tens of thousands of remnants trapped in Fort Herburg,

The fact that Lancet's own family can ignore the overall situation to such an extent for the sake of power has indeed refreshed Lint's perception of shamelessness and selfishness.

Shaking his head helplessly, Lint asked again, "What if I don't pay?" ”

"That's up to you, if you don't pay it, you won't be able to leave this hall today."

"That's what you mean, too?"

Lint looked around at the senators in the room, and the senators were silent and did not talk, obviously acquiescing, but they really couldn't be as shameless as Fury.

"You just hand it over, after all, you're not even a knight, and you can't serve the public if you don't manage Drifting Snow City properly."

There were other patriarchs in the audience who persuaded him.

Fury stared at Lint with some smugness, although there were no ambushes arranged, but he was enough to make Lint surrender with just one knight.

"Alas......"

Lint sighed faintly and then said,

"It's a pity ......"
