Chapter 338: 281 vs. 281 (2-in-1, Ask for Subscription!! )
The conversation that took place in the cafeteria reached the ears of the nobles that day.
Hearing the speeches of the son of Earl Austin, the Whip of the Conservative Party, and the son of Prime Minister Winston, all members of the Liberal Party broke out in a cold sweat!
Liquidation?
What is liquidation?
It turns out that the Conservatives have always wanted to kill themselves completely?
No one doubts the truth of Sibe and Robertson's statements, and everyone knows in their hearts that this is what they are talking about.
Both the Conservatives and the Liberals have scolded each other in their hearts.
Who does not curse his enemies?
But what the Liberals didn't expect was that the Conservatives were so ruthless and wanted to liquidate them all!
"Father, Robertson and Sibbe are just children, they don't understand politics, can they be trusted?"
In the Eling district, at the Baron Frederick family mansion, Stewart asked his father, "Is there any fraud in this?" ”
"No, quite the opposite."
Baron Frederick was holding a pipe with a gloomy face: "Children will be influenced by their parents, and the words that Robertson and Sibby said today are most likely from the mouths of Prime Minister Winston and Earl Austin."
"Damn it!" Stewart scolded in a low voice: "Although we are hostile to the Conservatives, we never thought of killing them!" ”
"Essentially, the Liberals are businessmen, and the Conservatives are politicians."
Baron Frederick said quietly: "The purpose of a businessman is to make a profit, as long as there is an interest other does not care at all, and the politician. Not only for profit, but also for your life! ”
Stewart shuddered and said, "Father, what are we going to do then?" ”
"What to do?"
"The Conservatives want to liquidate us, shouldn't we fight back?"
"Reckoning is just a child's joke, just listen to it, how can you really use this as a basis to start a war with the Conservatives?"
“?”
Stewart looked at his father in bewilderment, not understanding what he meant.
"We don't need to react much, everything is still the same as before, just continue to support Your Majesty." Baron Frederick said: "It just so happens that there have been some voices within the Liberal Party lately, and it is too much of a coincidence that this has happened, I suspect."
"Suspect what?"
"I suspect this thing was designed by someone with a heart from beginning to end!" Baron Frederick's eyes narrowed: "Looking at the cause and end of this matter, only His Royal Highness and Nicholas can plan to complete this matter!" ”
Stewart was shocked: "How is this possible? These words of reckoning were spoken by Robertson and Sibe! They are the children of the Conservative family, and they will not listen to His Highness and Nicholas! ”
"Don't forget what Nicholas does."
"Potions?"
Taking a puff of his cigarette, Baron Frederick nodded slowly: "There are still many unknown potions that have not appeared, Nicholas is a person, when he has always taken out any treasures, you never know how many hole cards he has, such as the mermaid tears needed to refine the infatuated flower last time, he didn't open his mouth, who knows if he has it?" Such a precious thing, he has been hiding it! ”
Stewart agreed, "And during the trip to Paris, Nicholas was supported by the Ocean Aquarium and the giant wolf. He's got acquainted with so many otherworldly races! These secrets have never been mentioned by Nicholas before! ”
"Don't think of Nicholas as an ordinary potions merchant." Baron Frederick said, "If he was just a potions dealer and would have died a long time ago, how could he have climbed to the top of the church in just half a year?" I also have the trust of the church! ”
Speaking of this, Baron Frederick let out a long sigh, and his frustrated tone was mixed with a hint of solemnity: "Recently, the intersection between His Royal Highness and Nicholas is a little too close, no matter what you do, you have to ask Nicholas, as if you regard Nicholas as a confidant among your confidants, this operation, even I don't know. I am His Highness's father-in-law! ”
Before Marvey came to London, the second prince's most trusted person was Baron Frederick.
In fact, the second prince now trusts Baron Frederick the most, but he doesn't dare to distrust Ma Wei.
How important Imavi is to him at the moment
He has no way out, he can only trust Ma Wei.
"After this incident, there will be no day of peace for the Liberals and the Conservatives"
Baron Frederick sighed: "We can only have the power to assist His Highness in running for the king, if the eldest prince is elected, the Liberal Party will definitely be liquidated!" ”
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
The Earl of Austin's mansion.
Shibbly, Sibe and Earl Austen stood side by side on the carpet, and across from them sat a noblewoman with heavy makeup and a brow on her face.
"It's all your fault!" The lady pointed to the nose of the Earl of Austin and said viciously, "I told you a long time ago, don't talk about these things at home!" You don't have to talk about it! Well, now all the scandals in our family have been publicized! ”
Xibei lowered his head deeply, not daring to say anything, and the face of the Earl of Austin on the side was also ugly, he couldn't have imagined that it was his own son who backstabbed him!
After the incident, they already knew, it must have been Xibei who fell into the trap of the enemy, so he said something that should not be said, and now, it is no longer a big deal to murder his brother with his wife's family, at most he gave up the position of the party whip, and the members of the upper house are still his, and no one can take them away.
The point is that Xibei's speech completely angered the Liberal Party, and there are some things that must not be said!
"I usually let you care more about Xibei, but you are only busy with government affairs, but what are you busy with? It's not like I'm going to wipe your ass at the end of every time! ”
The noble lady chattered and complained, and the Earl of Austin was silent, he was able to achieve today's achievements, thanks to the help of his wife's family, and he did not dare to return the scolding after two sentences.
Knock knock!
Scolding and scolding, the butler suddenly walked into the living room, bowed down and said, "Madam, sir, the eldest prince and the prime minister are here." ”
"Got it, Austin, you go and greet you."
"Hmm."
When the Earl of Austin followed the butler to greet the Grand Prince and Prime Minister Winston, the noblewoman who fiddled with the gold ring finger whispered, "Xibei, you come here." ”
"Yes, Mother."
Xibei trembled and came to the noble lady, the noble lady reached out and pulled out his collar ribbon, and tore a few buttons: "If you make a mistake, you should be punished, but your mother doesn't want to punish you, and she knows that you are unintentional, your mother loves you, but for the sake of the family, you have to make an appearance, understand?" ”
Xibei gritted her teeth and said, "I understand, mother! ”
"Okay, grit your teeth."
The lady raised her arm, riveted her strength, and slapped Xibei backwards and fell to the ground.
Looking up again, the left side of Xibei's face swelled at a speed visible to the naked eye, blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, his pupils were red, and the corners of his eyes were torn.
The eldest prince and Prime Minister Winston, who walked into the living room, saw this scene and subconsciously glanced at the noblewoman.
The noble lady straightened her face and got up to bow to the eldest prince: "Your Highness, Your Excellency the Prime Minister, it is my family education that is not strict and has done something insulting, no matter how you punish Xibei, the Austin family will not complain." ”
The eldest prince and Prime Minister Winston glanced at each other and squeezed out a reluctant smile: "Madame is serious, this incident is not Xibei's fault, it must be Nicholas who gave Xibei some kind of magic potion so that he can't control himself and doesn't have to be punished." ”
"Yes, Robertson also told me that he couldn't control his mouth at that time, his mind was thinking one thing, and what he said was another." Prime Minister Winston said.
The noble lady nodded her head and scolded: "Xibei! Why don't you thank Uncle Charles and the Prime Minister? ”
Xibei, who had a swollen face, expressed her gratitude, and was immediately taken down by the housekeeper to apply the medicine.
"We're not here to ask about the guilt of the teacher this time."
The eldest prince got straight to the point and said: "Things have happened, the result cannot be changed, we can only reduce the harm as much as possible." ”
Earl Austin sighed: "Your Highness, no one would have thought that the second prince would start with a child, I don't know what he wants to do."
"This must be a ruse by Nicholas." The eldest prince said: "Including the fight a few days ago, everything was done by Nicholas!" ”
"According to my discussion with His Royal Highness, it should be that there was a split within the Liberal Party, and in order to unite the inside, the second prince and Nicholas jointly planned this incident, the purpose is to make the Liberal Party hate us, so as to support the second prince more firmly." Winston said in a deep voice, "After this incident, I'm afraid the members of the Liberal Party will not come to us." ”
"So serious?!"
"The main thing is that the idea of our liquidation of the Liberal Party is exposed." The eldest prince said coldly: "The Labor Party defeated Shukri, the Liberal Party no longer has the arrogance it used before, and the split is inevitable, but I didn't expect that Nicholas would use this kind of trick to unite the Liberal Party again!" What a damn one! ”
"So what are we going to do?"
"It doesn't matter, even without the help of the Liberals, we still have Russell Benjamin! The Conservative Party is still the largest at present, as long as the northern parliamentarians are stabilized, Shukri and they will not be able to make too big waves! ”
"Your Highness, you didn't go to Duke Shevali's house the other day."
"Freya? That must have a physical collusion with Nicholas! A widow is unbearable and lonely, and she is in cahoots with Nicholas! It was already impossible to get her help! She chose to be on the side of the Liberals! ”
The eldest prince's face was gloomy, his tone was very unkind, and he didn't know how many times he scolded Freya in his heart, but this could not change the facts.
Fortunately, even if Freya chooses to help the Liberal Party, the number of votes will not exceed that of the Conservative Party, which has joined forces with the Northern Parliamentarians, and according to the current situation, once the king race begins, the eldest prince, who has the support of the cabinet, will most likely win in the end.
The only element of surprise.
"The Labour Party is now the third largest party in Parliament, with 20 neutral MPs choosing to join them, and their numbers have already surpassed the Democratic Party of the Duke of Chevali."
Prime Minister Winston asked: "Originally, I shouldn't have said these things, and I shouldn't have interfered, but who made me a Tory, Your Highness, you have to beware of the fourth prince." ”
"Beware of him? Why be wary of him? Will he support Shukri? The eldest prince shook his head and smiled: "Impossible! When pigs fly! ”
The Labour Party and the Liberal Party are mortal enemies, and if you use your brain, you will know that the Labour Party will never be able to support the Liberal Party, and that it is their ultimate goal to fight the Liberal Party!
On the other hand, the Conservative Party, although it is the ruling party in parliament, the largest party, and the biggest stumbling block on the road to the rise of the Labour Party, there is no direct conflict of interest between them and the Labour Party!
The old aristocracy owns the most real estate, manors, and farms, and has its own economy, which is not compatible with the workers!
Even if the Labour Party wants to liquidate them, it must first bring down the Liberals!
"I'm afraid that the fourth prince is desperate, and he would rather support the second prince than support you, Your Highness."
As soon as Prime Minister Winston finished speaking, the eldest prince frowned.
If things do go that way, the Conservatives will be at a disadvantage in an instant.
"So, I still have to talk to Arthur?"
"It was better to do so."
Meanwhile, Kensington Palace.
Bang!
The cork flew high, the champagne bottles gushed with dense white foam, and the second prince opened the champagne on the spot to celebrate the success of the plan.
"Nicholas, thanks to you this time, try it!"
When most of the glass of champagne was delivered to him, Ma Wei just wiped his lips and said with a smile: "Your Highness, what you should be most grateful for is not me, but Jonas, without him, the plan would not have been able to go smoothly." ”
"Of course! You are all a family, and when I become king, you will have whatever you want! I must give him a great land! ”
The second prince looked at Yunia, who was immersed in eating cake, and added, "And the chef who knows the best way to make pastries in the world!" ”
When it comes to painting a big pie, Ma Wei said that no one dares to call the second the first, and the Church of Truth has risen by drawing a big pie, but painting a big pie is not a bad thing, as long as it can be realized.
Yunia, who was eating the cake, raised her head when she heard this, and looked at the second prince, who was very excited, with some curiosity: "Your Highness, what are you so happy about?" ”
"I'm sure I'm glad that your father helped me stabilize the party!"
"But you still don't have enough votes!" Yunia snapped her fingers and said, "Last night Dad said that the Liberal Party has 216 seats in the House of Commons, plus 65 seats for Bad Women."
"281." Ma Wei said.
"Yes!" Yunia nodded heavily: "It's only 281 seats!" And the Conservatives have 259 seats! Combined with the 22 votes of the Northern Councillors, it is a total of yes."
"281 votes."
"That's right! 281 votes! Hey? Yunia blinked: "It seems to be a tie!" ”
The second prince was stunned for a moment, quickly counted the votes, and found out
It's really 281 votes to 281 votes!
"Actually, there are other supporters of the Conservative Party."
A familiar voice came from outside the door, and Baron Frederick pushed the door and walked in, speaking quickly: "According to the information I have received, the United Party and the three neutrals have defected to the Conservative Party. ”
In the House of Commons, there are 10 members of the United Party, 24 members of the Neutral Party, of which 20 have joined the Labour Party, and the last four have also defected to the Great Prince.
Don't underestimate these 14 votes, they are nothing on weekdays, but at critical moments, success or failure can be decided!
"If that's the case."
The second prince sat down, his eyes losing their sparkle: "Am I not going to lose to Charles?!" ”
"Your Highness, you have forgotten a foreign aid."
"Who?"
"Fourth Prince, Arthur!"
