Chapter 3 Her Royal Highness the Princess Reunited after a Long Absence
Following the noble members into the tall white arch of the council chamber, you will be greeted by a circle of vermilion seats like tree rings, filled with seated councillors.
At the top of the hall was a row of obsidian seats, which was the seat of the Council of Ten.
Due to various reasons, it is difficult for these ten positions to sit at the same time, but just at the top of the scattered three or four people, they still can't hide that position, an incomparable strong position.
The royal family's position was above the Council of Ten, and there were only four golden seats in a row.
Yes, according to the provisions of the Imperial Constitution, the number of seats for the royal family participating in politics to enter the Lanye Imperial Assembly Hall is four.
And at this time, the top one is the golden emperor, the Emperor of Lanye.
In the center of the hall is a circular snow-colored rhinestone clearing where all eyes of the entire hall can be concentrated.
This is the venue for the speeches of the councillors.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a black formal dress is standing there, giving a passionate speech:
"Distinguished colleagues and councillors, I am from Yanshi County in the eastern part of the Empire, which borders the Ottoid Empire, and you must be aware." He paused, looked at the reactions around him, and made sure that everyone was listening to him, and Fang continued.
"The Emperor of the Apocalypse of Auth ascended the throne in February of this year, and then engaged in a series of civil wars to suppress his opponents."
"Not to mention the palace coup that shook the mainland, the blood of the royal family of Ste filled the entire palace that night."
"Not to mention the suffocating purge, where nearly a third of the officials were executed on the gallows."
He spoke of the well-known facts, and the ranking was impassioned: "I believe that most of the people present have their own channels to understand and grasp the reports of the battles that the mighty, young emperor has completed in the past four months. ”
He looked around, his voice trembling, "Even with the closest renderings of the Arabian Nights, the new emperor with disillusionment is still powerful enough to reach the limits of our imagination. ”
"In April, with 110,000 troops, he defeated more than 700,000 of the Jingnan army, and I don't think any of us here could do that. Except for our great god of war, perhaps, only the legendary emperor can compare with him. ”
Then the councillor shook his head, as if to drive away the fear in his heart:
"However, he was only twenty-one years old."
"I don't think that this man who ascended to the throne by force, with his blood covered in the crown, will spend at least the next two hundred years going on outings and hunting, or indulging in the pleasures of a huge harem." The parliamentarian's words are graceful and luxurious, full of incitement and danger:
"He ascended to the throne by killing his uncle and brother, and he has shown us that he is fully ambitious."
"But." He paused, and then the words poured out like a torrent: "The borders of the Empire of Sturt are approaching their limits. ”
"They shall not go east to seek land on the sea."
"The continent that can't reach south to reach those elves."
"To the west is the terrifying forest that once held back the Primordial Emperor."
He looked around and pointed to his feet, "Only in the north is where the blade of disillusionment is pointing. ”
There was a circle of exclamations and gasps around him, and he was satisfied with everyone's reactions, and then continued:
"Whether this scenario is unfounded or an impending catastrophe, I think we should respond appropriately, and if the Emperor really wants to use our land to expand his territory, then we don't mind telling him what awe is with our sword and wand."
His voice had a thunderous low rhythm:
"Therefore, I propose that the Lanye Third Legion, which is stationed in Yanshi County, increase the standing strength of 50,000 people, and directly draw the most elite soldiers from all over the country. The shortfall is made up by the local army recruiting new recruits for training on its own, and as for the corresponding military salary, food, grass and ordnance support, I think it is also indispensable. ”
"I invite you to vote on this proposal."
When the middle-aged man's words were over, a thin conversation sounded in the hall, and the councillors who sat on the vermilion chairs of the annual rings talked to their sideways to discuss how much this might be. At this time, behind the golden seat at the top, a girl with long aqua blue hair frowned slightly and spoke: "Daddy, how credible is what they say?" ”
It was a rather young girl, sitting quietly on the pure gold chair, the edge of which was inlaid with precious and rare gems.
She seemed to be familiar with this position, so although it was a reunion after a long absence, she was in a calm situation.
And before her, there was the pale golden curtain.
The emperor is not blinded. So before she walked out of the tent, no one knew how many royals had arrived.
The golden-crowned emperor looked at his long-lost daughter with pity: "That emperor is really powerful and terrifying, and no one can guarantee that he will stay in his vast land forever. Actually, I'd even like to put the Second Legion there, if that would curb his young and strong heart. ”
The girl with long aqua blue hair sighed and said no more.
Soon the hall began to vote, and the Lanye House finally passed the resolution with 812 votes in favor and 125 votes against and 64 votes against.
At this time, the council chamber was finished, and while the maids kept coming in to replenish the refreshments for the councillors during the break, the girl with long aqua blue hair walked down from behind the royal seat.
A snow-white parliamentarian was sitting on the obsidian chair quietly and bowed his head to taste fragrant tea, and when he accidentally looked up and saw the aqua blue shadow, he couldn't help sighing: "It seems that I am really old, and I will actually see that little evil star come back, it is really unforgiving." ”
“…… Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! Syllable! ……”
At this moment, the crisp sound in the council chamber became one with one piece, as if someone was playing a grand music.
For a while, the fragrance of tea overflowed in the council hall, and one person coveted it.
The snow-white haired councillor had an ominous premonition in his heart, he looked up again, and found that the shadow had not disappeared, but had become clearer, and the beautiful and lovely aqua blue long-haired girl looked at him with interest: "Grandpa Lin Xi, Xiao Jiu greets you." ”
The old man's hand finally trembled, the teacup came out of his hand, and the hot fragrant tea rolled down as a string of blisters on the back of his thin hand, followed by a last crisp sound, announcing that there was no more complete teacup in this hall.
