Because the conservatives have fewer seats and a weak number of votes, the tax exemption bill will naturally pass if the speaker agrees, which is why in just four years, the tax exemption bill has been rejected three times by the prime minister - because each time it can be voted on in the house. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

However, because of the term limit, it is impossible for the Speaker to pass the tax exemption bill for the fourth time - so the decisive vote is basically in the hands of the next Speaker. The Empress came to the scene to hold the last hurdle, so even if Thomas had both virtue and talent, he would not have the slightest chance of winning, because Elena would never allow Thomas to be the Speaker.

What seems to be the most qualified candidate is actually the candidate who has been eliminated from the internal designation.

As Thomas was giving a speech, Frederick looked up, and his eyes were filled with the force of discipline, and his vision was astonishing, and he saw Elena behind the table with her head bowed and her forehead, as if she was extremely impatient, but there was no reason to interrupt Thomas, and she looked worried and haggard.

Elena rarely spends time in the House, and she doesn't know how to build momentum. But the Speaker of the House of Representatives is so old that he skillfully guides ideas, sets the mood, instigates ideas, and uses group consensus to shake the neutrals, making people feel that the bills he introduces are logical and successful.

If the Speaker's rhythm is not interrupted, the higher Thomas's voice, the more pressure Elena will have when she exercises her veto.

Frederick decided to come out and be the bad guy. Since he is not in the Chamberlain, it is not impossible to mess around. And that's not the most important thing.

Above all, Frederick was now in a hot head, and pursued two principles: everything that made Elena happy, he must be unswervingly implemented, and everything that could solve the problems of the chief must be carried out with great vigour.

That's why he came on top.

As soon as Thomas went down, Frederick clasped his five fingers on the table and made trouble with a bad attitude: "Every day you shout democracy, democracy, do you make decisions for the people? I say that there must be a limit to greed, and every day you cry 'tax exemption to save the market', do you remember that the market was destroyed by you? What did you do with the money? The workers still live in shacks, the peasants still have an empty stomach in winter, and the slums outside the city walls stretch for more than ten miles in one breath, so spectacular that the invading army makes us sweat!" Can we stop thinking about profits all day long, and can we pay a little attention to the people at the bottom who are actually creating material wealth? When the workers freeze to death, and when the peasants revolt, you will all emigrate, right?"

Frederick was like a vexatious and arrogant customer, eager to step on the table and complain, and the hustle and bustle was more unscrupulous than a delinquent boy, and more annoying than a street hooligan, but when the Speaker struck the hammer with angry eyes, His Majesty the Emperor sneered, and could not help but wonder, "Let him speak." In the halls of justice, freedom of expression must be respected. ”

Frederick wanted to kiss and thank him, but he could only bow respectfully: "Thank you for your grace." Then he threw the manuscript on the table without any education, and pointed at Thomas with a stunned face even more arrogantly: "Even if you advocate the tax exemption bill to the sky, I will unswervingly vote against you, because all the taxes that the royal family exempts you from are used by you for usury, which will not bring half of the welfare to the labor force, but will only increase the burden of society." Really, if I make you the next Speaker, the shrews on the old street will not scold wages and prices, but the unsightly Count Frederick. The gap between the rich and the poor is big enough, and Lao Tzu can't afford to bear this infamy. ”

Thomas stood on the stage at a loss, and was immediately greeted with boos. Centrist and conservative lawmakers have been reminiscent of the bombing of the mansion two days ago, and have been discussing the threat of the gap between the rich and the poor.

Frederick caught a glimpse of Oppenheimer standing up to speak, and immediately spoke first: "I mentioned that the bombing has already been planned, and it was planned by the suspects. But it is also a wake-up call that it is clear that the gap between rich and poor is so large that it breeds riots. If the tax exemption bill is passed at this time, it is tantamount to fighting the fire with salary, which is tantamount to making the situation worse, and will only make the turmoil more intense. So in any case, we need a speaker with a simpler background and simpler values to stabilize the legislative landscape for the next four years. ”

As soon as Oppenheimer heard the words "bombing" and "suspect", his face was as if he had lost blood, and he was so pale that he was a little sickly, and he forgot all the drafts he had typed, and sat back in horror and thought about it repeatedly.

He had been tormented by nightmares all night and his eyes were blinded by Frederick's smoke bombs, and he suddenly collapsed in the face of the huge pressure of the clouds, sweating profusely, and living with anxiety like years, unable to respond to the Speaker's attack.

When Frederick saw Oppenheimer sitting back halfway, he immediately sang and pointed at Thomas on the stage, and pursued with victory: "If in this situation, you are still elected with multiple votes and insist on pursuing the tax exemption bill, then congratulations, my intelligence organization will spend the rest of your life playing with you." As long as I catch your wrongdoing, I will let you never be reborn. ”

Thomas was still a young man, and he could not stand this overt threat, and he took two steps back in fear, and the manuscript was floating on the ground. It was useless for the Speaker to shout angrily, "How dare you intimidate the Parliamentarians," and Thomas's speech ended hastily, and he fled from the break in a state of trepidation.

Presumably under the influence of Frederick, the fourth candidate was much more cautious. His name was Robin, and he was plainly dressed, with thick eyebrows, two mustaches on his lips slightly curled, and a kind of pride in his chest, and two rows of hairlines on his sideburns that were as sharp as knives, showing meticulous weight. He took a neutral stance, read the speech in a hurry, objectively judged the merits of the tax exemption proposal, and concluded his speech with the sentence "To sum up, I am cautious about the tax exemption amendment."

Frederick flipped out Robin's resume and glanced at it. Robin was born as a craftsman, his father was a goldsmith, and he is currently working as a financing manager in the central bank. Because of his work connections, he has a wide range of contacts and is the capital of his election to the legislature, and because he does not have a knighthood, he has limited resources and has the lowest support rating among the four candidates. But it also allows him to see things from a dialectical perspective without being swayed by the funders.

Under Frederick's guidance, the emperor was able to overrule Thomas as Speaker with a single vote. So the Speaker will be elected from among the remaining three candidates: Frederick would be more likely to give Robin a chance to change the situation with this decent and eclectic underclassman.

The Speaker announced the start of the referendum. The next speaker will be chosen in this vote. (To be continued.) )
