Chapter 44: The Hong Family's Counterattack
The words of the great leader spread out like a plague through the television network and other tools.
At the same time, all the people who were concerned about the election roared angrily, and no one wanted the future leader to be such a person.
The whole hall was noisy and full of discussions.
Speaker Li was a little weak-hearted, but he tried his best to save Hong Wentao's lost reputation, and said angrily to the big leader: "Bastard, how can you believe what a bandit said, you said that all this was instructed by the prime minister, what evidence is there?" If I can't produce evidence, can I assume that you were deliberately invited by someone else to slander the Prime Minister? ”
Speaker Li has lived for such an age, and it is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and after saying something, he immediately pointed the finger at Xiao Yao again.
Everyone was silent again, indeed, when it comes to political issues, it is often the six relatives who do not recognize it, let alone slander it in order to suppress the opponent?
Unless the Grand Leader presents evidence, his words will hardly be convincing.
Suddenly, everyone, staring at the big leader with burning eyes, waiting for his evidence.
Speaker Lee smirked, he was excited that he was in a hurry, evidence? Hmph, with Hong Wentao's person, how can there be any evidence left in this kind of thing, this bandit will definitely not be able to come up with it.
However, the next moment, Speaker Lee's smile froze on his face.
"I have the evidence, this mobile phone is the prime minister's cronies specially used to contact me, there is only one call record on it, if you don't believe it, you can check the call recording, what the above commanded me to do, all explain clearly."
"If you still don't believe it, I still have two things here, this is the waist card of the iron guard next to the prime minister, I don't believe you can use it to verify!" As he spoke, the big leader took out one piece of evidence after another, and everyone who watched was stunned.
Speaker Li swallowed and foamed with difficulty, he didn't know what to do, and looked at Hong Wentao on the stage for help.
"Check the call record, check the waist card!"
Speaker Li didn't speak, which didn't mean that the matter could end here, and at this moment, some parliamentarians in the hall who supported Xiao Chen spoke out angrily.
Then, more and more people spoke out, and finally even the reporters shouted.
"Check the call record, check the waist card!"
This voice sounded rhythmically, and the small river converged into the river and sea in an instant, with an unstoppable momentum.
Xiao Yao smiled and looked at Speaker Li, whose face was pale, and said lightly: "What, doesn't Speaker Li dare to investigate?" ”
Speaker Li had already lost his proportions, retreated step by step, and asked Hong Wentao for help from time to time with his eyes.
Hong Antong glared at Xiao Yao with an angry face, gritting his teeth: "Waste, I knew I should have killed you in the first place!" ”
Hong Anguo had a calm expression, but there was a faint killing intent in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Yao.
The public was angry, and in the face of everyone's wishes, Hong Wentao finally stood up.
Suddenly, the crowd fell silent, and only the muffled breathing of the crowd remained in the Great Hall.
Everyone's eyes converged on Hong Wentao.
Xiao Yao looked at Hong Wentao lightly, the big leader was his first hole card, and he wanted to see how Hong Wentao resolved it this time.
"Guys, what he said is true." Surprisingly, Hong Wentao did not defend himself, or slandered the Xiao family in turn, but admitted it calmly as soon as he opened his mouth.
This surprised everyone, and even Xiao Yao was a little stunned.
However, without waiting for everyone to express their anger, Hong Wentao continued: "However, these things he said were not out of my own will...... Alas, it's all because I'm not strict with the emperor, that's why so many things have happened. Hong Wentao's face was distressed, and everyone who watched it didn't know why, even Xiao Yao was confused.
Hong Wentao suddenly shouted below: "Bring it up!" ”
At this time, two guards escorted a young man to the stage and stopped in front of Hong Wentao.
Hong Wentao looked sad and said bitterly: "This is my secretary Xiao Li, let him tell you what is going on!" After saying that, he turned around with a look that he couldn't bear to look at.
A hint of determination flashed in the young man's eyes, and then he turned to everyone and said loudly: "Actually, everyone misunderstood, I did these things without telling the prime minister, he didn't know at all, they all blamed me for being obsessed with ghosts and being eager to behave, so I committed these crimes, but these have nothing to do with the prime minister, please don't misunderstand." ”
After speaking, Xiao Li turned around and bowed to Hong Wentao, and cried: "Prime Minister, you have cultivated me, but I am ashamed of you, please forgive me!" ”
Hong Wentao didn't turn around, waved his hand very sadly, and the two guards escorted Xiao Li to the side.
"What, it turns out that the Prime Minister didn't know about all this!"
"I'll just say, the dignified Prime Minister of the Empire, how can he be related to an interstellar bandit, it turns out that the secretary is the ghost!"
"Yes, I almost wronged a good person, you look at the prime minister's sad expression, you can see that he is really a kind person!"
Although not everyone believed the words of the secretary Xiao Li, this time, Hong Wentao did redeem a lot of popularity.
Xiao Yao secretly scolded angrily: "Despicable, I actually found a scapegoat!" ”
I didn't expect Hong Wentao to have such a trick, obviously he had already made preparations in this regard.
Xiao Chen, who was sitting side by side with Hong Wentao, shook his head slightly, Hong Wentao is so shameless, he can do such a thing as a scapegoat, if he is really made the prime minister of the empire, then I don't know what the country I have worked so hard will become.
Haruka, I hope your plan will succeed.
Speaker Li, Hong Antong and others who stood on Hong Wentao's side finally put their minds at ease, and Xiao Yao's wave of offensive was successfully resolved.
Looking at the triumphant Speaker Li, Xiao Yao bent the corners of his mouth, and it seemed that he had only shown the next hole card.
Gently patting the somewhat sluggish big leader, Xiao Yao left his seat and got up and walked to the stage.
"Scapegoats are such a thing, anyone can think of it, even if these things have nothing to do with the prime minister, but the prime minister is also guilty of negligence, in this case, then the vote just now was elected by the House of Representatives without their knowledge, for the sake of fairness and justice, I think the vote just now should be invalidated, and now a new vote."
Just now, Speaker Li used this excuse to squeeze Xiao Chen, but he didn't expect to be turned around by Xiao Yao so soon.
The angry two people are dumb and eat coptis, and there are words of suffering!
Speaker Li surprisingly didn't refute, just sneered coldly, it seems that the Xiao family is already poor in donkey skills, what can they do if they vote again, the result is not the same? If it were me, I would have taken this opportunity to postpone the election for a few days and take the opportunity to win over votes.
"I agree!" Speaker Li said coldly.
Of course, Hong Wentao will not refute it, because as Xiao Yao said, even if he let his secretary Xiao Li take the blame for these things, he still has a mistake of negligence, if he is rejecting Xiao Yao's proposal at this time, he will have a ** share. And he thinks the same as Speaker Li, thinking that Xiao Yao can't make any big waves.
"I agree!" Hong Wentao said lightly, looking selfless.
Xiao Yao smiled slightly, the re-voting was only part of his plan, no matter whether the big leader's testimony just now could succeed or not, Xiao Yao would take this step.
Because this is only the beginning of his plan, and he expects that Hong Wentao and Speaker Li will not object.
"Boy, are you going to start voting again?" Speaker Li asked proudly.
"Don't worry, I still have some things to do!" Xiao Yao smiled mysteriously, and suddenly said loudly to everyone: "Everyone, I have news to tell you that the beast control apprentice invited by the Hong family has died a month ago, so some of the conditions promised by the Hong family to you cannot be fulfilled. ”
A sentence that was originally irrelevant to today's general election, but it caused a thousand waves with one stone.
Hong Wentao and the Hong family's faces suddenly changed.
The news of Liu Bai's killing, they have been tightly sealed, how did Xiao Yao know? Could it be that the murderer is Xiao Yao? But he doesn't have the strength to kill Liu Bai?
This time, the parliamentarians who were bribed by the Hong family were surprised, and even Speaker Li looked at Hong Wentao with a look of consternation, if the Hong family's beast control apprentice really died, wouldn't the benefits promised to them by the Hong family be empty checks?
No wonder every time he asks about the crystallization of star power, Hong Wentao, the old fox, shirks it on the grounds of Master Liu's retreat, is that Liu Bai really dead?
Looking at Hong Wentao's gloomy face, Speaker Li knew that the news was true, and it seemed that the Hong family had lost the need to support. However, Speaker Li has completely offended the Xiao family at this moment, even if the Hong family does not give him benefits, he can only stand with the Hong family.
However, Speaker Li's position does not represent the position of the majority of parliamentarians, especially when they knew that the Hong family had been deceiving them with empty checks for the past month, they were even more furious and asked Hong Wentao with their eyes.
Hong Wentao's thoughts flew around, trying his best to find a way to stabilize these parliamentarians, but before he could come up with a way, Xiao Yao threw out another bombshell.
Crash!
Xiao Yao flipped his palm, and more than a dozen egg-sized star power crystals appeared on the table in front of him, and the powerful star power fluctuations made Xiao Chen, who had the highest cultivation, slightly moved.
The star power crystals refined by an apprentice beast control master were all regarded as treasures by these people, not to mention these low-grade star power crystals that Xuantian threw to Xiao Yao, these people had never seen them.
In an instant, the audience was shocked!
"God, I'm not mistaken, there is such a big star power crystal, I have seen it for the first time in my life."
"It's the first time I've seen it, and it's the first time I've seen so many!"
"Oh my God, where did Xiao Yao get these things, this is a hundred times more powerful than the star power crystals given by the Hong family!"
The parliamentarians were shocked, everyone was shocked, but Xiao Yao's next words shocked them even more.
Looking at everyone's greedy and shocked expressions, Xiao Yao was not surprised, if these frogs at the bottom of the well were not shocked, it would be strange, even Xiao Yao couldn't imagine being able to see so many precious star power crystals at once before he met Xuantian.
"The promise that the Hong family gave you can't be fulfilled, but my Xiao family can, so you should understand what to do next!"
Speaker Li almost fell headlong, this is Chi Guoguo's wooing, he feels that he is already very shameless, but compared with Xiao Yao, he can't even touch the edge!
