Chapter 120 The Council of Nobles
Bai Lingbo was chatting with His Excellency the Speaker, when someone came and said, "His Royal Highness Minglun, the Ninth Throne, has arrived!" β
When Bai Lingbo heard this, he glanced at the speaker, and then looked at the door and left, going to greet Minglun.
The other councilors around also heard it, and after a while, a group of people gathered together, followed Bai Lingbo and the speaker, and came to the door, just as they saw Minglun striding in.
Minglun didn't have time to greet them on the surface, and said straightly: "Have you all arrived?" In five minutes, a meeting is called! β
He was so impatient, and the nobles could understand it.
In the current chaotic situation, the Central Council is helpless, and it is all up to Minglun to stabilize the situation; The Yu clan and the Bai clan are inseparable, and the son of the evil god has emerged, no wonder Minglun is impatient.
The speaker asked a young man beside him in a low voice, and then raised his head and said to Ming Lun: "Your Highness, all members of the council are here except for the twelve members of the Li family. β
Minglun nodded: "Don't wait for the Li family, let's have a meeting." β
The Lee clan had twelve seats in the noble council, none of which had come at the moment; This is naturally because of the destruction of the Li family's Yong'ancheng.
The Li family was supposed to have a resident councillor in the imperial capital, but before Ming Lun came, he knew that the resident councilor had just left the imperial capital in a panic - presumably he had received the news of the fall of Yong'ancheng.
Naturally, there is no need to wait.
Seeing Minglun say this, the other noble councilors have nothing to do.
The Speaker ascended to the chief position, struck the hammer, and the rotunda suddenly fell silent, and the noble council was officially convened.
This time, the parliament was raised by Bai Lingbo, and it stands to reason that she should be the first to go up and speak; But Minglun took the lead, ascended to the chief, faced all the councillors, looked solemn, and said: "Put aside the other issues of the council this time!" β
As he spoke, he glanced around and said, "I will first convey one thing to the councillors. β
"Before coming to Parliament, I just received news from Antario. β
One word at a time: "Yong'an City suffered, and the Li clan was destroyed!" β
As soon as these words came out, in an instant, the sound of mosquito wings could be heard in the entire council hall!
After three breaths, there was an uproar!
Unbelievable!
The extermination of the Li clan is simply a joke, an impossible joke!
Minglun pressed his palm on the table in front of the chief position, and with a bang, the table collapsed: "Quiet!" β
He said: "There is nothing false about this. The Naiyu clan poured out of the nest, united with the son of shadows, and destroyed Yong'an City with the power of thunder. β
"Of course, there are a lot of doubts, but none of them matter!"
He said: "The Li family is the pillar of the empire, the home of the duke for 3,000 years, and the background is unfathomable; But in broad daylight, it was destroyed according to the geographical advantage. β
"This is a time of crisis."
The Li clan was one of the most powerful nobles in the empire, but it was suddenly destroyed, and the danger of survival was in sight. The Li family can be destroyed, and the other nobles and families, who dares to say that they are stronger than the Li family?!
None of the councillors here are stupid, and as soon as they think about it, they know the seriousness of the matter.
Only then did it suddenly dawn, no wonder the Ninth Minglun was so impatient!
Minglun took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "The so-called cold lips and teeth, everyone, I now ask all the nobles to contribute in the name of the Ninth Throne of the Empire!" β
"For your own good, for the good of the Empire."
"I will wait at the West City Gate, and in three hours, I will send troops to Anzhou!"
He said to a middle-aged man sitting beside Bai Lingbo: "After I leave the Imperial Capital, the matter of maintaining stability in the Imperial Capital will be supervised by the Liu family!" β
The middle-aged nobleman got up: "Your Highness, rest assured." β
The Ninth Minglun stepped down from the chief and left the council hall without looking back.
...
After leaving Minglun, the council hall was noisy again, like a vegetable market for a while.
Bai Lingbo's eyes flickered, listening to the discussions of the parliamentarians in his ears, but his eyes flashed with bright light.
After a moment's thought, she got up and walked to the chief.
Crescent-like eyes swept over the councillors below, then picked up the hammer and struck it several times.
When she barely quieted down, she said: "We are waiting for the nobles to rest with the country, and at this critical time, on behalf of the Bai family, I will fully support His Royal Highness Minglun." I will send the Bai Clan's Jin Wei to follow His Royal Highness Minglun to fight against rebellion! β
Expressing his stance on the previous matter, Bai Lingbo then said: "The matter is so urgent, while we support the empire, we must not help but make two plans. β
As he said this, almost all the noble councilors nodded slightly.
As far as the nobility is concerned, the University is not as big as the family.
Bai Lingbo thus successfully led to her plan to collect the Thirteen Evil God Frontal Bone Books.
...
After Minglun left the Council of Nobles, he returned to the Defense Department of the Imperial Capital and issued several orders in succession to arrange the defense of the Imperial Capital.
Then select the elite, prepare the armament, and assemble at the airship landing of the garrison near the West Gate.
Three hours passed in a flash, and the sky was already dark.
One after another, the nobles of each family, more or less, within these three hours, sent people.
The weakest are all legendary and extraordinary.
The total number of people is as high as 2,000!
There are even those who even have the head of the family in person, such as Bai Lingbo, and there are quite a few people.
After all, there are still nobles who have been with the country for 3,000 years, loyal to the empire, and willing to pay.
Bai Lingbo was discussing with Minglun.
The two were in a secluded place on the side, and Bai Lingbo said: "At the moment, be open and honest." Your Highness, you must know what I've been doing all this time. β
Minglun said: "What do you mean? β
Bai Lingbo said: "Your Highness, I am bound to get thirteen evil god bone books. This piece of Lee's collection belongs to me. Bai Clan Jinwei, I give full authority to His Highness to command, what does Your Highness think? β
When Minglun heard this, he smiled slightlyβbut with a hint of sarcasm.
Said: "Thirteen Evil God Bone Books... Scold.... If you want it, I will fulfill you. β
But he said: "However, the piece of the Li family's collection, are you sure you can get it?" β
Bai Lingbo said: "Whether you can get it or not, you must have this idea first." This time the strong gathered, led by His Royal Highness, if you can't get it, then I will admit it! β
Minglun nodded: "Okay." β
......
Zhao Jingyang squinted his eyes slightly, looking at the huge ruins in the distance, and his heart was spinning.
He caught a qi machine that was extremely similar to Gong Yuyi's system in the quagmire of Yucheng's flesh and blood, and followed all the way, and the location of the target has never changed.
It was as if they were waiting for him.
This cannot but teach people to be vigilant.
At the level of Zhao Jingyang, if someone catches the qi machine and chases it all the way, he will definitely feel it; In this way, there are two options.
Either avoid it or fight it.
If you are not sure, you will naturally avoid it; If you are sure, you will naturally face it.
That guy hasn't moved, that is, he has the intention to fight, which shows that he is sure!
Zhao Jingyang showed a sneer.
"Yong'an City?!"
Gong Yuyi beside him widened his eyes, looked at the ruins of the city in the distance, and couldn't help but say, "This is the Li family's Yong'an City!" β
