As early as the beginning of the economic crisis, Lorraine convened his staff to discuss how to solve the economic crisis, so that a package of solutions can now be quickly proposed.

In the past, there were only two solutions to the economic crisis, one was to adhere to the principle of free trade, and through the passage of time, enough people would die, and the productive forces would be free, and then the crisis would be solved.

Lorraine's plan, on the other hand, was controllative, in which Siber used loans, national debt, and special taxes to raise funds to solve the economic crisis, so that the country could recover quickly.

Therefore, after receiving the petitioners, Lorraine sent the plan that had been prepared to the parliament in the afternoon, and the grand council is usually convened at the end of the year, when the large council is in a state of recess, and the upper house handles the daily affairs, so it is the nobles headed by the speaker Li Xiwei and others who review this plan.

The proposals were quickly sent to the Upper Legislature, which was rejected three days later by the Upper Legislature, claiming that the bills would not help solve the economic crisis.

The liberal aristocracy vetoed it on the grounds that it violated the principle of free trade, while the orthodox aristocracy, believing that it should be financed not from open sources but from throttling, proposed a series of new proposals, such as reducing royal expenditures and confiscating the stolen money of the nobles, all of which were directed at Atona without exception.

Lorraine was not surprised to receive this answer from the Upper Council, which in fact was expected by her, knowing that whatever she proposed would be the result.

The purpose of the orthodox aristocracy is to stir up trouble, no matter what plan Celiti III proposes, they can always find various reasons to veto, the purpose is to make Celiti III unable to use the power of the state to solve the economic crisis, coupled with the aristocracy's bad behavior, the situation of Sib will be eroded all the way.

In this way, the prestige and prestige of Seliti III would fall to the bottom, and the orthodox aristocracy would be able to achieve what had never been achieved before, namely, to force the resignation of the President of the Sib Commonwealth.

The concept of "resignation", not to mention in the distant Middle Ages, and even in modern times, is very numerous, most of them are after a country loses a war, and the ruler resigns to apologize, and even has to commit suicide to save his honor.

It's just that in Siber, since the "Great Sage" Boligu carried out the "Iron Ambition" plan, he has gone from one victory to another, so there has never been a situation where the ruler has resigned, in fact, Siber has even been very successful in the succession of the president, and the first succession dispute between more than 20 generations of presidents by military means was caused by Navarre.

Therefore, it is said that wanting Seliti III to "resign" can be described as a matter of great condemnation in the world, and it is not that Siber has not encountered an economic crisis in the past, although the president actually resigned, but this resignation is only a tacit understanding, and there is no explicit declaration that the so-called aristocracy is not disgraced, but now these orthodox nobles intend to break this tacit understanding.

In fact, this group of orthodox aristocrats who are making trouble also know that they are making a bad start, and they treat Celiti III like this today, and I don't know if someone will treat them like this one day.

But in the end, the gods are gone, and many things that were taken for granted begin to become strange, and Navarre's coup d'état is the last fig leaf to tell everyone that the world has changed.

As for the reason for the opposition of the enlightened aristocracy, it was not the reason for the proposals themselves, but because they were proposed by Lorraine.

The difference between them and the orthodox aristocracy was that they did not want to overturn the table, and they were willing to keep the presidency of Selitti III, but only if Selitti III gave in to them and let them formulate a plan to save the economic crisis, rather than keep the Atonalites in power.

In fact, the Atona faction did not have good intentions, and Lorraine's proposals were quite radical, so she knew that it was impossible for the Upper Council to pass them, and that was what Lorraine's people were aiming for.

"So now you can see it, it's not that we don't want to deal with it, it's the Council of Lords who stopped us from dealing with it," Lorraine's beautiful eyes flashed with a sly light, "so now it's the Council that is to blame, and since they are unkind, don't blame us for being unjust." ”

By the afternoon, the Upper Assembly had received a reply from King Selitti III, who was surprised and incomprehensible that the parliament had rejected his proposal, and therefore called an emergency national assembly to reconsider and vote on the package at the emergency national assembly.

Hearing this reply, the Senators immediately felt that Celiti III or Lorraine had their brains cucked?

It is important to know that the Upper Parliament itself is an executive body elected by the members of the Great Council to replace the functions of the Great Council when the Great Council is not in session, so the will of the Upper Assembly is a projection of the actions of the Great Council, and it is impossible for a proposal that is unanimously rejected by the Upper Assembly to be passed in the Great Council.

And the Artona aristocracy rose like nouveau riche, the time was too short for their power in the Great Council to be insignificant, and the Orthodox and Enlightened nobles joined forces to completely control the Great Council, so even if the Great Council was convened, it was impossible for Celiti III to turn the tables.

Although the spies of the nobles did not fail to receive information, and the merchant groups that had developed with the connivance of Fauti II had recently been very dishonest and often sent lobbyists to the royal palace, these did not alert the nobles, after all, the focus of the struggle was on the Parliament, and what was the use of the Merchant Groups who could not enter the Parliament?

And then they were slapped in the face.

"Distinguished gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, here I would like to ask you a question, what kind of institution can represent our venerable motherland, our dear people?" a well-dressed gentleman stood in Dofan Square, and his speech attracted many onlookers of the leisure citizens present.

"Now this institution is the Parliament, and the great men who first established it considered that in order to rule the country well, it was necessary to adopt the opinions and attitudes of all kinds of virtuous gentlemen, and in the distant days of the wilderness, who was of the noblest character? ”

"In the past, the noblest men became nobles, and therefore they represented the whole people in parliament, and as an advisory body to the rulers, it was undoubtedly a reasonable and necessary measure at that time. ”

"But times are evolving, and in this age, there is no doubt that, judging by the many nobles who have entered parliament with great contempt, I dare to assert that this model has fallen behind. ”

"Then in this great new era, the bloodline is no longer enough to be the evidence of judging the high morality, since the bloodline cannot judge the character, then what can judge the morality?

"It is a matter of course in most cases that the poor are rich and have a good conscience, and those with poor moral character are poor and those with high moral character are rich, so I think that in the present day we should take property as the criterion, and after the preliminary examination of the gentlemen, finally judge the persons elected to the House of Representatives. ”

This gentleman's tirade soon reached the ears of the nobles, who understood the purpose of the merchants, which was to replace the bloodline with a limit of property so that the merchants could also join the council.

Speaker Li Xiyi scoffed at this, the emergency council is about to be convened, even if you merchant groups are protected by the gods and successfully elected to the council, how many councilors can be elected? Can you overthrow the control of the nobles over the council?

However, the nobles did not expect that with the support of Celiti III and the Atona faction, the merchant group would become even more emboldened than they had dreamed.

The emergency council was convened in June 2922 in the Great Calendar, but by April, most of the noble councillors had arrived in Batiros one after another, ready to participate in the upcoming emergency meeting, and under the tandem of the capital's great nobles, they initially unified their internal opinions, and in general there were few nobles who supported Celiti III.

After roughly arranging the attitude of the aristocratic camp, Li Xiyi and these nobles looked even more proud, even if an emergency council was convened?

In this way, in May, less than a month before the convening of the Emergency Council, Siber took what came to be known as the "May Oath."

When the first rays of May sun shone on the square in front of the palace, the authorities' spies noticed that something was wrong, and a group of people seemed to gather in front of the gate to do something big.

However, the spy could not be arrested immediately, because it could be seen from the clothes that this group of people were all valuable gentlemen, and even some nobles were mixed in, so the spy could only report the matter to his superiors and let the superiors decide.

When the sun had fully risen, the first gentleman to come out of the crowd, Sialie, 34 years old, delivered a speech in the square that had been popular for more than a year, and his speech was to the effect that:

The economic crisis is a crisis that concerns all the Sibbers, so decisions should not be made by a body that can only represent a few, but if decisions are really made that concern the safety of all Sibbers, they should be made by an institution that is truly representative of all.

The workers who were busy with their work had nothing to do with what the oracles were talking about, but didn't Siariel bring with them a large number of men who were also gentlemen? They thundered with applause and cheers and cheers for his speech.

The city defense army has arrived in the square and started to guard, the city defense army commander is also a nobleman, belonging to the orthodox nobles, he looked at the gentlemen who were speaking in front of him with a gloomy face, he had already clenched the saber in his hand, but he had not yet moved, after all, the other party was not a worker but a gentleman, so he was waiting for the order from above.

At this time, Siari had reached the end of his speech, and he made a categorical conclusion: "Petition! We will petition the great president! We will meet His Majesty Selitti III in person! Let him hear the voices of the lower classes!"

This was greeted with further applause, and the gentlemen gathered around Siari towards the main entrance of the palace, shouting at the palace in front of the main entrance, demanding to see the "great" President Seliti III.
