Peter quickly gave the order to release Lin Yunnan, he didn't want to get into trouble.

has been opposed to the duke for so many years, although he does not know him as thoroughly as the duke, but the general situation around the duke, Peter knows. For example, Lin Yunnan, who is said to be a beautiful man, is indeed Lin Xiuzhi's younger brother, and it is indeed the duke's father-in-law, Australian tycoon Mr. Lin Mohan, who was personally handed over to his daughter when his wife married the duke, and in front of Zhao Bingguo.

There are some colorful legends among them, but because they involve a few big people, there is no market for gossip.

"What the hell is this kid going to do?" Peter, who was originally thinking about Zhao Gongzi Ximin, was distracted by Baron Lin Yun.

As he walked to the boardroom, Peter pondered the question.

The atmosphere in the conference room was a little solemn, and the fifteen lords of the Shenjue Gate, except for the first-class duke Zhao Bingguo and the fourth-class viscount Lin Yunnan, had already arrived. Everyone received a notice that Peter, the temporary head of the Confederation Central Committee and the second marquis of the Confederacy, notified the convening of an emergency meeting, and the content of the meeting was not mentioned, and everyone was speculating in their hearts that the duke was not there, and this nemesis, Marquis Peter, was afraid that he was going to play some new tricks, but he was afraid that there was no tiger and monkey in the mountains to call the king.

Most of the lords don't have a good impression of Peter, and they slander a lot, saying that if it weren't for Hualong Hi-Tech's wealth, you Peter would be just a dream if he wanted to be a marquis, besides, with Peter's intelligence, he was not worthy of sitting in the position of a second-class marquis at all, and he didn't know what the reason was for Duke Zhao Bingguo, who insisted on putting his nemesis on the throne, and also made him the temporary head of the central government.

The lord was used to being lazy, and the emergency meeting scheduled for four o'clock in the afternoon was not gathered until half past four.

Entering the familiar conference room, I found that on the rostrum, there were third-class Earl Alexander, and fourth-class Viscount Ming Qiushan. The middle seat was empty, and it was clear that this was the place of the Marquis of Peter.

The lords who usually have a good relationship nod and wave to each other, each found their own fixed position, and after sitting down, he began to scan the entire venue, and unexpectedly found that Major General Jack David, the head of the Confederate security department, was also seated, but his position was more special, and a separate seat was arranged outside the seats of the lords.

David kept his head down and was looking at some documents, not caring at all about the looks of the lords.

Soon, as a tall and sturdy figure quickly stepped onto the rostrum, the door to the conference room was closed. The difference is that this time there are two more heavily armed guards on either side of the door.

Everyone looked up at the rostrum, and Peter was already sitting down in the center, and behind him stood a short, stocky young man with a black face and a black mask, who looked like a bodyguard or something.

There was a whisper below, you see, the dignified second-class marquis of the Confederation was ashamed to choose such a short and dark guy to take with him.

What can be done? Who told people to have such a vision, people like crooked melons and cracked dates, can you kid manage it? This is an older lord reprimanding a young man.

Or you are old and well-informed, admired and admired. The young man who was reprimanded instead returned to the old man with a smiling face.

At this moment, there was a knock on the table in front of me.

"Everyone, be quiet, let's start the meeting. This is Alexander speaking, "Today's meeting is presided over by me, and the reason why it is called an emergency meeting is that there is an emergency to report. After the Viscount of Ming Qiushan reported the situation, Marquis Peter made an important speech. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen. The duke's trip took less than five days, and before leaving, the duke held a press conference to make the purpose of the trip public. This fully reflects that the leaders of our Confederation lead by example and take the lead in realizing the transparency and sunshine of government affairs. However, on the way back from the duke's trip, there was a little episode, but it was all saved by our resourceful duke. At present, the Duke special plane has landed safely at the Chaka Salt Lake Base in Qinghai Province, the former Huaxia State. According to the Duke's instructions, due to the fact that there were many problems in our Confederacy during this trip, he decided to carry out a one-month private visit to Weifu to confirm the problems and solve the problems. "That's the first thing I'm going to report.

Ming Qiushan ignored the sound of the meeting hall and continued: "The second thing is this. According to the intelligence, the Duchess Lin Xiuzhi returned to the Zurich residence two days earlier than the Duke, and the Madame was not with the Duke, there must have been a reason for the incident, and strangely, the Duchess fell ill in bed the day after returning home. What's even more strange is that Yu Zimo, the chief reporter of Xiandao.com, who went to the Chaka Salt Lake base to interview the Duke, also fell ill in the Zurich Central Hospital after the interview. According to the information we have, these two events are isolated and unrelated incidents. But because they are all associated with the duke. These two women, one is the duke's wife, and the other is the niece of the duke's father and daughter, who were originally healthy, lively and energetic, but at almost the same time, because of the same experience, they developed physical conditions. In this way, it is easy to be exploited to spread rumors against the Duke and even the Confederacy. Therefore, the Supreme Trio ordered me and Count Alexander to have separate contact with some of the lords present here, and today, once again, I specifically propose that all lords must not believe or spread rumors, and be staunch defenders of the overall stability of the Confederacy. ”

Some lords have indeed been in contact with these two, so they know what he is talking about, and some of them are at a loss, not believing or spreading rumors, where are the rumors? What are the rumors? Some are disdainful, thinking that the trio is not high, and they temporarily lead the Confederation in place of the duke, and from the perspective of the handling of this trivial matter, the gap with the duke is really not a little bit.

Peter was smoking a cigarette with his hands in his hands, his body motionless, his little eyes constantly rolling, and the various expressions of the lords were in full view. Major General Jack David, who was sitting in a special position, had a dignified expression and no expression, and it was basically impossible for the outside world to observe his inner world through the changes in the expression on his face.

See almost. Peter tapped the table with his pipe.

"How about it, after listening to the viscount's briefing, if you have any ideas, you may wish to put them forward, and we will discuss them. Peter, who was tall and sat taller than the others, said this with his elbows on the table and his eyes to the left and right for advice.

"I'll start with my observations. Judging from the two briefings, I believe that the work of the top trio needs to be strengthened. Although you are directly assigned by the Duke to be in charge temporarily, we have nothing to criticize. However, as a member of the Divine Lordship, I have the power to supervise and advise the highest authority of the Confederacy, so I cannot be derelict in my duties. My question is: What exactly is the little episode that the Duke encountered on the way back from this trip? Who are the people who participated in the creation of the small episode? It is necessary for the trio to investigate clearly and give a detailed reply to the Shenjue Gate, and it is obviously irresponsible to use any small episode in this way. Besides, it's good that the trio will take precautions, but how do you know that there will be rumors? There is a soil for rumors, may I ask, on what basis are the trio sure that rumors will be unfavorable to the Duke and even the Confederacy? When my consultation is over, I would like to ask for a reply from the trio. "The first to open his mouth was Count Sima Qinglong, who was over sixty years old and had white hair. This person has a neutral attitude, is known for daring to speak up, and has a lot of prestige in the Shenjue Gate.

His statement was supported and seconded by the majority of the people.

"Well, Count Sima has a point. Is there anything else?" Peter gritted his cigarette stick with his teeth and replied with a smile. Alexander and Ming Qiushan next to him began to break out in cold sweat on their foreheads.

"Can I ask a question that is not related to this?" a voice sounded, apparently unwilling to let people know who he was, so he did not show up.

"Speak freely, you can ask about everything related to the Marquis and the Duke, public figures have no private affairs, not to mention that like the Duke and I, we are people who have promised to the Confederation with our bodies, and we have no selfish thoughts. Peter was confident.

"It is rumored in the outside world that although Marquis Peter handed over Hualong Hi-Tech to Yokoyama Ichiro to take care of, you have always been the behind-the-scenes boss of Hualong, and Hualong's big and small affairs, without your nod, will not work. As we all know, Duke Zhao Bingguo has publicly announced that he will hand over West Sea Shipping to the Economic Department of the Confederation on the date of his election as a duke. I ask the Marquis if this is true. Moreover, it is also a rumor from the outside world, Hualong Hi-Tech has always been unwilling to lose to West Sea Shipping, and last time it was the first to announce the discovery of the 'Yuanwu' prophet in the Andes, and later it turned out to be a farce. Many people assert that this is because the Hualong high-tech clique covets the supreme ruling power of the Confederation and vainly attempts to achieve the goal of controlling the Confederation by taking the lead in discovering the 'Yuanwu' prophet and surrendering the army without a fight. May I ask the Marquis, can you explain?" a middle-aged man with a white face and beard, who looked like a scholar, was asking. The marquis asked Ming Qiushan sideways, knowing that this person was only in the position of baron, named Guan Zhongda.

Faced with such a sharp question, Peter was slightly stunned. In the past, there were only rumors that there were many people who suspected him, from all walks of life, and it seems that it has been confirmed in front of him. A colleague of the Shenjue Sect dared to question him in person, which shows how fierce the rumors are. Today was an opportunity, and Peter decided to seize the moment and explain it clearly.

"Baron Zhongda, first of all, I want to thank you for your outspokenness, this is the true image of the Lord of the Divine Lord. I hate not saying it to my face, talking nonsense behind my back, and chewing my tongue irresponsibly. Someone like you, who speaks directly on behalf of the majority, is the person I most admire in Peter. I can answer you responsibly, and I will give you detailed answers to the questions you have asked on behalf of the majority. With that, Peter stood up and bowed his hand in the direction of Baron Guan Zhongda.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any other questions to consult?" Count Alexander waited for a moment, and seeing that no one stood up to speak, he immediately announced, "The last item of the meeting, please point out the important speech of Lord Peter Marquis Peter." ”

The venue fell silent for a moment, and everyone's eyes turned to the rostrum.

Peter didn't move, didn't give any signal, still clattering his pipe, a layer of smoke hanging over his head.

Silence, silence is a rare spectacle at all the lords' conferences.

The lords who did not arrange real posts were like the officials raised by the imperial court in history, and their common characteristics were to evaluate their heads, talk loudly, and despise the others.

It was eerily quiet at the moment.

All eyes were on the Marquis, to see how he responded to the inquiries at today's meeting. How to deploy the work that follows.

"Everyone, have you seen it, we have invited a distinguished guest to this meeting. With a hand pointing to the back row, everyone immediately turned their heads and looked at Major General Jack David, who was in the last seat.

David immediately tensed. He didn't know what the Marquis meant by that.

Peter immediately continued: "It is said that it is a distinguished guest, and it is because the temporary supreme head of the Confederate Central Committee has notified Major General Jack David, the responsible person of the security services, to report to the Central Committee on the matter. The major general, citing the lack of time, automatically delayed his arrival by one hour. That's why I say it's a distinguished guest. ”

Everyone looked at each other, and some began to realize the seriousness of the problem, and Peter's tone had already leaked the attitude of the central government.

"How unreasonable!" suddenly a loud roar came, followed by a heavy punch on the case. Everyone shook in shock.

"What kind of behavior is this, you say, Chancellor?" said Peter's pipe, which slammed on the table, and the ashes burst out. The messy hair was shaking, too.

"Defying the central government and the authority of the supreme leader of the central management body. Viscount Ming Qiushan, the Minister of Supervision, replied. "In accordance with the relevant provisions of Article 10, paragraph 1, of the Basic Law of the Confederation, a final decision may be executed. ”

"Where's the guard? Pull David out for me and cut it off. Peter's earth-shattering roar resounded through the room.

"Keep people under the knife. The white-haired old man, Count Sima Qinglong, shouted. The internal guard, who had already caught David's arms, stopped.

"Tell the Marquis, and listen to the old man. It's easy to kill a David, but it's hard to block the mouth of the world, so why not hand over Major General David to the Minister of Justice, Earl Kunzishan, and after investigating and collecting evidence, the sentence will be pronounced and executed in accordance with the law. ”

"Count Qinglong doesn't know. This Jack David was originally my second-class guard of Hualong High-tech, and he has been with me for many years before and after the saddle, so it can be said that he is like father and son. It was only when I strongly recommended him to the Duke that the Duke agreed to make him the head of the Confederate security service and conferred the rank of Major General. But as a close confidant of mine, during the Duke's travels, he did not do his best to guard the Duke, and let the Duke openly commit danger, so that what is my face?

"Didn't Baron Zhongda also say the heartfelt words of some of the people just now? That is, in the end, does your Marquis really want to compete with the Duke for the position of the boss of the Confederation, and the prophet of the 'Yuanwu' realm is just an excuse for you. ”

Peter said proudly, my lords, I am not not disobeying the basic laws of the Confederacy. Here, I would like to take this opportunity to answer the questions listed above. Why did the Duke completely hand over the West Sea Shipping to the Confederacy, but his own Hualong Hi-Tech did not do so. This was carried out in accordance with the provisions of the Basic Law of the Confederation. The Duke was the highest de facto executor of the Confederate authorities, and had to do so. And I am only one of the second-class marquises, so I can not hand it in for the time being. If you don't believe it, you can go back and check the Basic Law.

Second, after the execution of David, the Marquis of Ben will immediately appoint the incumbent brigadier general and Baron Kurban, the baron of the Divine Lord, to take over the affairs of the security department of the Confederation. As everyone knows, Baron Kurban was born in Western Sea Shipping.

I Peter killed his own cronies, which can be regarded as Hualong Hi-Tech cleaning up the portal, and it is not illegal. Isn't it self-evident whether there is a contradiction between the marquis and the duke when the duke's deceased man is appointed to an important post?

After listening to the marquis's analysis, Yaqi was silent below.

Earl Qinglong, Baron Zhongda, Earl Kunzishan, do you still have any questions?

Several were speechless.

"What are you waiting for?" Peter snapped, and the teacups on the table slammed. Before the sound fell, I saw a shiny Gurkha scimitar, whistling out with the sound of the wind, floating two back and forth in front of the sitting lord, "swish" was picked up by the short man wearing a black mask behind the marquis, and when everyone was dazzled, the flying knife had been "whizzed" into the waist. The short man in the black mask still stood upright.

Only then did the crowd come to their senses, but David saw that his throat had been cut, his head was hanging to one side, and blood was bubbling in his throat.
