Chapter 42: The core layer of the grumpy ideal township
The imperial capital was blown up.
Even the old emperor, who spent four-fifths of the day in bed, had to attend an emergency meeting of the House of Lords.
Frye looked a little dazed and followed behind the Emperor.
The attendant pushed the wheelchair in which the old emperor was sitting.
Along the way, the emperor brace his spirits and try to hide the fact that his health is getting worse and worse.
At this time, the House of Lords has become a toad pit.
However, it's basically nonsense that doesn't hurt your back when you stand and talk.
Until the court attendants pulled their necks and shouted, 'The Emperor has arrived'.
The chaos in the council hall just stopped.
All the nobles stood up, struck their chests with their left hands, and stood with their heads bowed in the highest respect to the Emperor.
The old emperor, who was in a wheelchair, raised his hand and pressed it slightly.
'Whoa-la-'
The nobles who stood up took their seats.
There was a bit of a mess in the middle of the field.
Parchment rolls, quills, and inkwells......
Obviously, when the quarrel here reached its climax just now, the scene was so chaotic.
Everyone is copying what they have at hand, and whatever is pasted into each other's faces.
The last time the House of Lords was so lively, it was when Ray Teglin rose up.
Frye pushed the old emperor to the top seat of the house reserved for the emperor.
Carry the sword on the ground, and the overlapping hands are on the hilt of the sword, like a statue of the god of war.
It is also with this prestige suppression that the old emperor can now eat and sleep soundly, and he does not have to worry about his three sons rebelling against him.
Speaking of which, it is also a pity.
How can this be the case with a human empire that once founded the country with morality, swore an oath to adhere to the camp of goodness and order, and believed in the good dragon god?
The morality of the aristocracy has deteriorated, the royal family has fought for power, and the glory of the past has decayed.
The old emperor sat on the highest throne and sighed lightly.
"Tell me about the results you discussed." The voice of the Holy Platinum Emperor echoed through the palatial chamber of the House of Lords.
However, many of the nobles present turned red.
I'm really embarrassed to say that they were so noisy that they wanted to slap the inkwell in each other's faces, but it didn't lead to any results.
The smart keep silent, and the stupid will 'take the stage' at this time.
"Your Majesty!" A middle-aged, pot-bellied aristocrat stood up.
He had a mustache, was not tall, and wore the Order of the Lord's Jewel on his chest.
"Your Majesty! This is a very serious incident! Among our nobles, there are people who do such a thing that violates morality and legal principles for the sake of family wealth and titles! ”
He said it heartbroken, I don't know, I thought it was a nobleman who gave a colored hat to a certain nobleman with a heavy army on the border.
This led to another civil strife in the Empire.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Can you imagine! A woman! Became a titled nobleman with a heavy army in his hands! She even arrogantly repelled the Imperial Emissary! What kind of system!? What a system! ”
"It's immoral! This is outrageous! It's ......"
He was short of words, his face was flushed, and he couldn't think of the next words, so he simply slapped the table and continued to say angrily:
"Severe punishment! It must be punished severely! ”
Frye clenched his teeth, his royal blue eyes, and he almost burst into anger.
Be!
Charlie may really be a woman!
And it's this woman! Guarding the borders of the Empire!
The empire was hit hard by civil strife, and fought back hard against the attacking orcs!
Or even slay the dragon!
For any of you here!
Who can do this!?
However, these words, he could only roar in the bottom of his heart.
In the seat not far from the Lord, a member of the House of Lords, who wore the Earl's Jewel on his chest, hooked his lips and smiled sarcastically:
"How to punish severely? It was the ideal place to slay dragons. Are you going to send an army of dragons to attack it?
Or can you ask the gods to punish the ideal country?
If not, shut up, think of your lines, and speak before Your Majesty, Your Excellency. ”
The eight-character bearded and fat aristocrat who spoke, his face was angry and turned into the color of pig liver.
"Also, don't continue to say anything stupid about sending troops to fight against you.
Do you think the current state of the empire can start a second civil war?
Use your brains, Lord Farr. ”
The chubby bearded nobleman gasped and sat down again, but he was not reconciled, and as soon as he sat down, he bounced up, pointed to the councillor who had just refuted him, and said:
"You! You're just like old Violet! Your direct children don't have sons! You have adopted the son of a distant relative as a stepson!
Are you trying to exonerate Violet's little girl!?
Do you want to use this incident to give your daughter the right to inherit?!
Your Majesty! Don't you see that there are already people among us who want to change the laws of the Empire?!
The dragon god is above! This is a provocation to order!
This is a rebellion! ”
There was a dead silence.
Many of the members of the House of Lords here have similar conditions in their families.
Although it cannot be said that it is a majority, it is by no means one or two.
These people were silent at this time, and no one knew what they were thinking in their hearts.
handed over the property accumulated by his family over several lifetimes to a distant relative who couldn't be beaten.
Let his own daughter have no title and no property, so she can only live by looking at the faces of distant relatives.
Who would really want to?
It's just that none of them were as good as the Violet family back then.
In the imperial capital, there is a ghost trick of turning a real phoenix into a fake phoenix.
At this time, no one dared to stand up and say a word that changed the law.
The count's face was pale, and before he could scold, cough, he heard the voice of the highest seat when he went back.
"I'm not here to listen to meaningless quarrels."
The aging emperor opened his dim eyes and glanced at the audience.
"If it's just a pointless quarrel like this, then, I'm going back to the palace, and after you finish arguing, send the result to the palace."
gestured, the emperor asked the palace attendants behind him to push him away.
At this time, a part of the clever conspirators couldn't help it.
These people don't really care about Charlie Violet's gender.
What they are blushing at is the ideal country of prosperity; It is the rumored 'land of gold' that paves the way, and the pearl of Bella that brings endless wealth on the shores of Beira.
"Your Majesty, why don't you summon Count Violet back first?" , said an elderly councillor with the Marquis Jewel Medal.
"Seconded." An Earl Councillor.
"Seconded." A Marquis Councillor.
……
With a 'second' sound, Fry's hand on the hilt of the sword gradually tightened, and the green tendons gradually burst into his temples.
The reaction to all this was seen by his father, who was sitting in the front row of the parliamentarians.
The Marquis of Dow Jones sighed imperceptibly.
At this time, I had to stand up and say a word.
His son is his greatest pride and his greatest worry.
He raised his son too uprightly, and without his protection, it would be difficult for such a son to gain a foothold in the political center of the empire in the future.
Although I think so, I still have to stand up on the cusp of this critical moment.
Marquis Dow Jones spoke slowly, "Guys, you are planning to be Charlie Violet Burr today...... Charlie Violet, it's better to think about it. ”
"What does the Marquis of Dow Jones mean, you might as well say it directly." It was the old Marquis who had proposed to recall Charlie before.
The Marquis of Dow Jones only glanced at the old man.
I knew in my heart that as soon as I opened my mouth, I would inevitably get into trouble.
Because, this has already stood in line with His Royal Highness the Great Prince.
The Marquis of Dow Jones said lightly: "It's nothing, I just advise everyone not to touch the stone with an egg." ”
"Hey...... Marquis of Dow, I didn't want to doubt you that much.
But I now have serious doubts about whether you already know some of the inside scoops of the Violet family?
After all, the scandal between your son and that Miss Violet is something that I have heard about in the older generation......
Your Majesty, I propose ......"
No one thinks that on such a serious occasion, there is anything wrong with mentioning the gossip of the younger generation.
Politics is about framing and attacking each other.
Once you're stuck in a quagmire, it's hard to clean yourself.
Because, your political enemies can always think of ways to throw dirty water on you.
However, the old marquis's words were not finished, and the emperor opened his mouth to interrupt directly.
"Frye is good, Frye is a good boy, you don't have to mention the Dow Jones family again. Give me Charlie Violet and the solution to the ideal township first. ”
"But ......"
"No, Tygo." The Emperor of the Empire was uncharacteristically and his momentum increased dramatically.
The emperor who can still drive the expedition in his twilight years is not a puppet who sits on the throne and lets some big nobles fiddle with it at will.
"Your Majesty, this is not a joke, these people are breaking the rules of the empire, I think, the Dow Jones family can't help but give an explanation."
Although the old marquis was frightened by the emperor, more nobles stood up at this time.
They are not the so-called 'rules' of the Empire, but the nobles who have already sided with the two princes.
The big premise goal is, of course, to get the ideal township.
However, it does not prevent them from doing it easily, the royalist Dow Jones family.
Engage the Dow Jones, they have nothing to lose if they fail, do they?
Fry's hand holding the sword trembled, anger filling his sanity at this time.
Knowing his son, the Marquis of Dow Jones solemnly spoke at this time.
"I swear to the Holy Platinum Dragon God in the name of the Dow Jones family.
My son, my family, and I had absolutely no prior knowledge or involvement in the Violet family's violation of the laws of the Empire! ”
……
Ideal Township.
Charlie found the reason, and ran to find out a certain necromantic super lich who was stuffed in the room and was about to grow mushrooms.
Eris's research on dragon lichs has yielded results.
At this time, he was sitting in the conference hall, and everyone was faintly aware of a dragon might.
Why does a human-transformed super lich have the dragon power that only dragons have?
Seriously, if you close your eyes, McGonagall will think this is his kindred, uh, converted lich sitting here!
Obviously, this is the result of Ereth's days of sleep and food.
Although everyone was curious, they didn't pursue it too much.
At present, the attention of all the staff is still on the two invitations placed on the long table of the meeting.
The invitation was blank.
If it weren't for the fact that it was the legendary dragon species of the iridescent dragon that sent the message that day.
Moreover, Yinlong has also given a certain guarantee.
Well, everyone should wonder if this is a bad joke at this time.
"So, that's it, it's a dead end again.
I really don't know why those big guys always like to make things so complicated! ”
As he spoke, a sharp knock on the door echoed in the conference hall, and Charlie's words were interrupted.
Charlie frowned slightly, "Come in." ”
Nao hurried in, followed by a dusty Serre.
"Your Excellency! Captain Serge has something very important to tell you. ”
Charlie's face slowly sank.
Searle was given only one mission.
If he says there is an emergency, then ......
Serge took a deep breath and began to speak quickly:
"I follow your orders and escort that woman back to the imperial capital.
And according to your special instructions, I did not turn back at that time.
Instead, he returned to the imperial capital and hid.
As you might expect! As soon as the woman returned to the city, she ran to the palace to tell the truth!
I tore the teleportation scroll, and when I teleported back, the Imperial Capital had already urgently convened a meeting of the House of Lords!
It should be a matter of discussing your legal inheritance! ”
Charlie was relieved when he heard this.
Not only Charlie, but everyone sitting in the conference hall at this time did not look nervous.
These are two extremes from the fried Imperial House of Lords.
Those with bigger hearts, such as Celine, picked up the teacup at this time, made a 'sucking' sound, and took a sip of the best black tea specially offered by the White Castle.
Lady White Rose smiled slightly, "That's a good thing, dear, you finally don't have to worry about your ...... anymore The crazy woman. She has nothing left to blackmail or blackmail you. ”
"Mentor, you don't need to comfort me, in fact, I'm in a pretty good mood right now." Charlie said with one hand on his chin and with a smile.
Charlie's fingers clasped the conference table with a soft 'tuk-tuk' sound.
"So, guys, new topics.
Leave aside the headache of invitations for now.
Let's discuss in detail how the Empire will be in trouble, and how we should respond.
Let's go! ”
Theon was the first to speak.
As long as it involves meetings where force can be used, he and the red robe are always the most active.
"I propose!"
Charlie guessed in his heart, and estimated that the latter words would be summed up, and he would directly send troops to defeat the imperial capital......
"I propose! You directly appointed me as the 'Generalissimo of the War in the Ideal Township'! ”
Charlie had thought too much about it before, but he didn't dare to give Theon such a 'loud' name.
Otherwise, if she makes a generalissimo, it is estimated that the emperor will be scared.
I thought that the real power of the big nobles in another border was reversed.
Charlie laughed, only to realize that their Theon was also so cute.
"Okay, whatever you want."
The dragon's tail behind Theon was about to rise to the sky.
"The second point, the nearby Maddie City, I think it should be fought down first, just in case!"
Charlie can't say this.
She didn't know much about military matters.
But I think that before the empire has given an order, she has overturned the next-door neighbor here, isn't it not good?
"Uh...... Vote for it. ”
As a result, there were a total of 32 core members present.
After one round of voting, the ratio of yes to no was 26:6.
Charlie looked around helplessly.
looks inconspicuous, it turns out that all of them are so violent?
Ah, that's only sorry, dear neighbor.
Charlie continued to look at the newly appointed generalissimo of the war and said, "Any other suggestions, our generalissimo?" ”
Theon's tail wagged more cheerfully.
"Yes! One last minute! Let's send troops! Excellency! We can take down the imperial capital! ”
Charlie: "......"
