Chapter Eighty-Three: Handing the Knife
"Storming the state organs of the Empire, hunting down and killing the Empire's confidential personnel, flouting the legal code, disregarding human life, gathering crowds to gamble ......", Prince Fabio put down the impeachment letter in his hand and looked at Rossi strangely. He thought that Rosie would just call someone back and speak with a rough fist, and he always behaved like that. But the facts were unexpected, Rossi, who had suffered a loss, did not use force, and even refused the young people's demand to go to war, but wrote such an impeachment letter.
He wants to impeach the Brell family, from the patriarch to the family's dog, all within the scope of his impeachment.
This is the most surprising part, Rossi has grasped the root of the matter, and the entry point is extremely appropriate. He was beaten, and it was not him who was humiliated, but the face of the ceremonial officer and the royal family. Everyone understands that the power of the imperial family is shrinking, and His Majesty the Emperor has always wanted to regain the power in his hands, so he deliberately set up such a ridiculous department as the ceremonial officer. At first, his intention was to make the ceremonial officer a department in the House of Elders, reporting directly to him, giving him a reason and an excuse to meddle in matters between nobles.
But the House of Elders directly rejected this request, the affairs of the nobility should be solved by the nobility, and the royal family is just the biggest noble, why should it control other nobles? So His Majesty's initial idea was frustrated, and then he wanted to get the ceremonial officer into the Imperial Parliament, and the five speakers directly smacked His Majesty the Emperor in the face, the Imperial Council is the embodiment of the overall rights and interests of the ruling class of the Turman Empire, not a toy of the royal family, and this request was also rejected.
Under all the circumstances, the ceremonial officer, a state organ with so powerful powers and functions that it is against the sky, has become a joke-like existence. But even if it is a joke, it is the face of His Majesty the Emperor.
Storming the ceremonial officer's headquarters and beating the ceremonial officer's lower-level officials, he even slapped His Majesty the Emperor in the face, who claimed to be the master of Mingjun and Zhongxing, a few times, and the beating sounded.
There is no need for Rossi to do anything, His Majesty the Emperor will take the initiative to stand up. He wants to maintain his face, he wants to maintain the loyalty of the royalists, he wants to make his voice heard, so he needs a knife.
Rossi's impeachment was the knife, and he was now preparing to deliver it to His Majesty the Emperor.
The political struggles in the Tuhrman Empire were sometimes child's play, and the nobles fought for power and profit not once or twice, but almost every year there were big scenes like the Victory Square fight. But the political struggle is also extremely cruel, once the struggle is defeated, the enemy will slash hard, and then step on the other side to prevent the other side from turning over, until the other side breathes.
Rossi's performance was so amazing that Prince Fabio was overjoyed. If he finds a group of people to fight back, the knife becomes a farce. Prince Heinsis will say that this is a conflict and a fight between young people, and you see, the boy of the Brell family beat Rosie, and Rosie beat back, which is just a vindictive, not elegant. But Rossi's silence and endurance changed the nature of the matter, and his concession left His Majesty the Emperor on the edge of a cliff.
If His Majesty the Emperor can't fight back forcefully, he may be slapped in the face again.
Everyone likes to slap the royal family in the face because it is especially fulfilling.
But slapping the royal family in the face is a very skillful thing that no one can do. For example, His Royal Highness Prince Fabio, it is said that he has an unclear relationship with the queen, which is obviously a very serious political incident, but it was manipulated by Prince Fabio into a lace scandal. If His Majesty the Emperor wants to toss the Empress or Prince Fabio because of rumors, then he will indirectly admit the truth of this matter, which will shake those who are loyal to the royal family - how can he take care of the whole country if he can't even handle his own wife?
Therefore, His Majesty the Great and Wise Emperor can only regard it as no such thing, but instead squeeze out a smile to denounce the ridiculousness of the rumors. As for what he thinks in his heart, it is estimated that only the queen knows.
The face is swollen, and I have to say that the fight is good, His Majesty the Emperor is actually quite pitiful sometimes.
Prince Fabio handed Rossi's impeachment letter to Alfred beside him, he is one of the five speakers of the Imperial Parliament, and it can be said that in the journey of power, he is already second only to the three strongest men in the empire, ranking in the top ten. Alfred glanced at the impeachment book, his lips moved slightly and he quickly read it silently, and nodded after a moment's consideration, "It's very well written, Heinsys is going to be in a hurry." ”
As the leader of the aristocratic group, Heinsys had to protect the honor and disgrace of his subordinates in addition to establishing a clear political program and a symbol of the group's spirit. His Majesty the Emperor wants to do something to the Brell family, and he wants to go back to protect the Brell family, but this matter is really wrong for the bridle family's kids. The most hateful thing is that Rossi actually jumped out of the matter itself, so that people can't find a little handle to grasp.
"Wait for you to go in with us, I'll let you do it, you can do it again. Prince Fabio asked Alfred to return the impeachment to Rossi, and they were in the lounge next to the palace of diligence at this time, and today was the day of the court meeting, and two days a week everyone would be here to deal with business. His Majesty the Emperor also has the right to summon anyone at any time if something urgent happens.
Rossi put the impeachment in his pocket and sat at the very edge of the common room, where the core figures of the Fabio aristocratic group were located, each of whom held important positions, and it was in the hands of this group that the vast machine of the Turman Empire was slowly moving.
About twenty minutes later, Prince Fabio explained his attitude and tone for today, and everyone began to enter the hall in order when the bell rang.
Unlike the braided country on earth and the dynasty of the old Zhu family, there is no prostration, and there is no standing. The main hall was filled with sofas and chaise longues according to the camps, and maids stood on the side pushing drinks and meals. His Majesty the Emperor sits on a high golden throne that symbolizes power, looking down on the entire hall. And the nobles sat together, sitting or lying down, without the slightest respect for His Majesty the Emperor, this Nima was completely a tea party!
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, so today's agenda is particularly long, and it is completely a matter of several departments doing their best. These personable nobles can also scare people to death if they don't have a face, and they often quarrel for a long time over the number of dozens of gold coins. His Majesty the Emperor did not say a word, and only at the end would he give a final opinion. The above sentence was the imagination of His Majesty the Emperor himself, and in fact his decision could not be the final decision, because the nobles did not buy it.
For example, the military department asked for an increase in military spending, and the conflict on the border of the empire continued, and the military department believed that large-scale wars were very likely to occur in the next few years, and the existing equipment could not properly put the empire in a safe situation, and it was imperative to add new equipment and new troops.
Where does the money come from?
It must come out of the imperial finances, which are not rich, and the rich are the nobles themselves.
The military department wants money, but other departments don't want money? Everyone is not short of money, but they all want more, so let's talk about it.
Last year's financial revenue was so much, everyone had to take a bite, and if they couldn't talk, they would quarrel, and if they couldn't, they would fight in the main hall. Some people even swore openly and openly and scolded His Majesty the Emperor.
This court politics opened Rossi's eyes, where is this discussing national affairs, it is clearly a shrew holding a conference.
It wasn't until near noon that the whole hall fell silent, for everyone was hungry. The maid brought simple food, and everyone snorted and ate, and then quarreled after eating, and the quarrel lasted until the afternoon.
When the heads of several departments have won the maximum benefit for themselves, it is finally the turn of some small things.
Francisco smashed Rossi, Rossi immediately stood up, he walked directly to the middle of the hall, and said loudly: "I, the Viscount of the Empire, the ceremonial officer of the Imperial State Organ Rosie, impeach the ...... of the Brell family." ”
A large section of the impeachment spurted out of Rossi's mouth, and His Majesty's stiff face finally changed expression. His eyebrows were slightly raised, and instead of glancing at Heinse, who was sitting not far from him, the corners of his mouth slowly curled.
When Rossi finished reading the impeachment book he had prepared, His Majesty the Emperor looked at a forty-something nobleman sitting in Heinsse's camp and asked in a deep voice, "Is the content of Viscount Rossi's impeachment true?"
Blair immediately stood up, "Fart!", his blushing face was full of anger, "I don't mean you, I mean him." He pointed to Rossi.
His Majesty the Emperor teased faintly: "I thought you said I was farting." ”
Rossi didn't speak, he sent the knife to His Majesty the Emperor, and the rest of the time was His Majesty's showtime, and it had nothing to do with him. He ran back to his seat and sat down, took a sip from his teacup, moistened his throat, and waited to see the show.
Brell even claimed that he did not dare, but His Majesty the Emperor did not intend to let go of this opportunity to strike at the noble group of Prince Heinsy, he hooked his finger a few times, and the captain of the royal guard walked in from outside the palace. He asked, "You tell me out loud about yesterday." ”
The royal guards must have been loyal to the royal family, and they had already unified their voices before the start of the government. He recounted yesterday's events as they were, largely in line with the facts, but because of his tone and use of certain words, his testimony was more biased towards Rossi.
Breel's face was red, his ears were red, he gritted his teeth, he lowered his head, "Your Majesty, there is something else hidden in this matter. ”
At this time, according to the script, His Majesty the Emperor should say a quick word in a suspicious voice. But he looked at Brell in silence, which made Brell feel very worried.
After a long time, His Majesty the Emperor sighed, he looked at Prince Heinsy, "Cousin, what do you think?"
His Majesty the Emperor and Heinsses were cousins, as were he and Prince Fabio. The three families have not intermarried once or twice for thousands of years, and the three most powerful people in the empire are indeed cousins in terms of blood relationship.
Prince Heinsis held his glass and looked at His Majesty the Emperor with a smile, "Let Brell speak up so that we can find out what is going on." ”
His Majesty the Emperor's face changed suddenly, this was a slap in the face on the spot, he sneered and glared at Heinsses, and looked at Breel, "Needless to say, I know what happened." As soon as he raised his hand, the guards beside him told him everything that had happened before.
The ceremonial officer is indeed a weapon of great killing, and as long as he has the opportunity to use it, he will definitely be able to make meritorious contributions.
Regardless of Nick or Nilo, they did violate the laws of the nobility, and Rossi did nothing wrong. Resisting the imperial code is a sin in itself, and they are still nobles, taking the lead in resisting the law, and the sin is added to the first degree.
This is also one of the reasons why His Majesty the Emperor is confident, Lao Tzu finally came up with a killer feature, I see how you break it!
He sneered and glanced at Heinsea.
