Chapter 278: Shimono's Overture

As early as the time when Nesta was not yet born, although there was no official name, the matter of 'impeachment' had already existed in disguise;

It's just that at the time, the form was very bloody, and when the Buraku people became dissatisfied with the chieftain, they often simply chose to physically exterminate them directly.

When history entered the early stage of the Rune Calendar, Nesta established a series of policies, preliminarily determining the specific powers and responsibilities of the 'Tribune', the 'Ruling Government', the 'Law Court', the 'Army', and the 'Rune Council'.

Among them, what the Conservative Yuan obtained was the right to supervise the ruling government and the power of impeachment that arose from it.

In the event of impeachment, 'the House of Protectors as a whole will become the initiator of the impeachment, the Rune Council will become the court of impeachment, and the rest of the military, political, and legal parties will only be present as observers';

And 'the abuse of power by high-ranking public officials, the deviation from the people's trust, and the crime caused by the dereliction of duty' are all targets of 'impeachment'.

In addition, the result of 'impeachment' is determined to be 'the removal of the guilty person from office, thereby giving the legal organs the right to interrogate and, if necessary, the impeachment and conviction thereafter subject to the rest of the law's sanctions. ’

From this point on, the relationship between the people and the high public officials was initially moved from barbarism to civilization, and 'impeachment' became a serious political process based on procedure rather than unruly brute force.

And when the time came to October 66 of the rune calendar, that is, at the beginning of the return of the 'Great Refuge', Nesta began to promote the codification of the 'impeachment rule';

As a result, the Court was instructed to sort out the 'impeachment customs' of the preceding thirty years and draft them into the first draft of the law.

In December 66 of the Rune Calendar, the Draft of the Law on the Impeachment of High Public Officials of the Republic was submitted to the Rune Council and officially entered the review stage.

In the "Grass Eucalyptus", in addition to the previous impeachment rules for important members of the ruling government have been converted into articles, for the first time, the leaders of the Rune Council and the heads of the committees are also included in the scope of impeachment, which can be regarded as further pulling the Rune Council and the members of the Council off the 'altar', adding another weight to the end of the 'discipline'.

However, there is a problem with this......

At a time when the 'Discipline Period' has not yet ended, the Rune Council is the de facto supreme authority in the Republic, and the members of the Council are not born on the basis of 'popular elections' or the like, but from their own meritorious service to the Republic.

Strictly speaking, all existing institutions in the Republic are actually subject to the work of the Rune Council;

But the parliament itself is only responsible for the concept of a 'republic', and of course the heads of state at all levels, including the speaker....

In other words, there is no such thing as an institution that can be the initiator of impeachment, because no one institution can fully represent the conceptual entity of the 'republic' and exercise this power.

Therefore, it is unreasonable for the first draft of the "Eucalyptus" to give the power of impeachment to the Speaker of the National Assembly and other important seats, as if the rules at the time of impeachment of the ruling government.

Therefore, due to the fact that the 'discipline' still exists at this stage, the 'impeachment' of important members of the parliament has become an 'automatic initiation clause' for some self-deception.....

That is, when the actor's 'treason', 'crime', 'dereliction of duty', or 'loss caused by his decision' becomes a public fact, the impeachment ordinance will automatically come into force;

When the impeachment ordinance comes into effect, the parliament, the Senate, and the research, government, law, military, and business parties will form a unified 'representative entity of the provisional republic' under the authority of the law, and become the initiator and receiver of the impeachment.

However, before deciding whether 'impeachment is required', the 'representative entity of the provisional republic' will first hold a hearing, and after a series of procedures such as proof and voting, the follow-up matters will be discussed.

Of course, the 'law' is not intelligent and practically impossible to 'initiate automatically', but at a time when there is a logical contradiction in the attribution of the rights and responsibilities of all parties, this plan is put aside as a temporary plan for rights and interests;

However, the Rune Council will not be above all parties forever, and when it finishes its special mission in the special stage, it will be the moment when the power and responsibility are truly clarified....

At that time, impeachment will not be as troublesome as it is today, and it will even be necessary to establish a 'political impeachment' against members of parliament outside the law.

After all, when power is handed over, the body that takes over the power has more 'immunity from prosecution' than the Rune Council, which is a 'senator'.....

The discussion of the many problems existing in the "Eucalyptus" continued for quite some time after that, and it was not until the beginning of March of the 67th year of the Rune Calendar that the first version of the "Impeachment Law" was actually introduced.

Then, under pressure from Nesta, the provisions of the law for parliament were put into practice for the first time in a short time.

In this way, the 'auto-initiation' is indeed self-deception of the 'man', and Nesta acts as the 'initiator' in fact.....

~~~~~~~

When the time came to mid-March, representatives from the various industries from the headquarters and the rest of the cities gathered at the headquarters, and they joined the 73 members of the Rune Council, as well as representatives of the military, political and legal parties, to form a 'provisional entity' to participate in the 'hearings' against Nesta.

After a period of oath proceedings, the hearing officially began.....

The first is the self-proof stage, where Nesta enters the patio-like venue and begins her statement under the gaze of many people sitting in all directions;

In this process, he did not make an outrageous defense for his dereliction of duty, but only told the truth at that time in an orderly manner.

The second is the evidence presentation link, where more than a dozen witnesses came to the stage in turn at this time and explained what they saw and heard at that time;

Among the witnesses here were witch doctors, sergeants, and several scout representatives, all of whom were present at the scene of the Double Kings 034 City at that time;

In addition to the above-mentioned 'own people', there were even several asylum seekers who came to power at one point and spoke in their native languages in a trembling state.

Almost all of the testimony given by all these witnesses focused on the expression of 'urgency', 'time urgency', and 'really helplessness';

In other words, their testimony was actually completely biased towards Nesta's side, and even the patrons were full of 'sycophants' in fear.

Again, there was the discussion stage, where the discussion was held in a 'closed door' for up to seven days, but in fact only three minutes were used, and the final conclusion was reached, and a decent 'statement of reasons' was written in one more hour.......

The 'Reasons Statement' issued by the Provisional Entity reads:

[There is no perfect strategy in the world, and every political decision made by the speaker of parliament, important members of committees, and even senior officials of the ruling government will in fact face a certain 'uncertainty of consequences';

If, because of the existence of such uncertainties, they are to be held accountable after the fact, then the policy of the Republic in the future will be uncontrollably inclined to extreme conservatism, which is not conducive to our continued development;

Therefore, we tend to regard the uncertainty faced by policies in the implementation phase as a risk that must be taken, and the impeachment of policymakers needs to be carried out with great caution.

In this case, His Excellency Nesta was indeed in an unstable environment that required a rapid evacuation at the time of his decision-making, and the consequences of his actions did not cause irreparable damage to the Republic, so he should be exempted as appropriate.....

For all these reasons, the decision of this 'provisional entity' is to 'not carry out impeachment'. 】

In this regard, the hearing was closed to the satisfaction of all parties......

Representatives of various industries believe that they have succeeded in keeping the pioneers and striking at the dark psychology of a part of the group;

The members of the council felt that they had satisfied the political cleanliness of the wayward president while preserving his popularity;

The onlookers, such as the ruling government and the military, were happy that the republic was still the same and that they had not lost their reliable supreme leader.

If anyone is dissatisfied, it may be that the only one who has been declared 'innocent' is Nesta, who is a bit idealistic, but he actually does not like this kind of conclusion;

However, Nesta is not a masochist after all, and there is no need to make a decision like 'death and law' this time, since it is almost enough to see a general procedure in place and execute it completely.

Perhaps, just as it is written in the "Book of Reasons" that "there is no perfect solution in the world", this "impeachment law" also needs to be slowly perfected through the accumulation of the times, and it is enough to guide yourself to today's step.

Moreover, some of the reasons in the 'book' are indeed substantial, and the top rulers do need to be relieved of some worries when making decisions.

Therefore, he also accepted the result.

And when the matter came to an end, and the vast majority of the participants also felt that the great pioneers would continue to lead them as before, the change happened again......

A month after the conclusion of the hearing, the Council of Rune, under the impetus of Nesta, made a 'voting weight plan for the election of the president of the council', and this became the last decision that Nesta participated in during this term;

On the third day of its appointment, Nesta solemnly handed over his 'resignation', thus once again setting off a great wave among all parties.

~~~~~~~

Headquarters, Inner Ring Line Rail Transit Vehicle;

"Did you hear that? Your Excellency the Pioneer is resigning! A well-toned and sexy girl in a short skirt who couldn't tell her age asked the passenger next to her at this time.

"How could I not have heard of it, why do you want to go into the wilderness...."

Although the interrogator didn't know him, he felt that what he could often see around in the past few days was somewhat familiar, so the young male elf, who had already completed his advanced level during the internship period, responded.

"Could there be some conspiracy here? Like intrigue like those races in the North? ”

The female elf has a scorching flame in her eyes, but she doesn't know what she's burning towards.... Is it the topic itself, or is it the interlocutor at this time?

And the male is also in the sudden desire to express, with a bit of arrogance in his words,

"Hmph, no way! Is it true that our 70,000 compatriots eat dry food? If the guys up there dare to come nonsense... See if I dare to put on armor and cut off their heads. ”

"Phew~ nonsense, we'll be finished with your thoughts, rules, do you have to understand according to the rules?"

The female elf cursed lightly, and by the way, there was a 'braid' around the back of her neck, and flexibly found an 'interface' behind the other person's head;

After searching to no avail, 'Braid' drew a circle on his chest rather lightly when he retracted it, and teased again,

"You don't seem to have any armor to wear, you're still a little guy, aren't you?"

Licking his lips, the detective, who had just entered the vacation stage and had not known the smell of meat for a long time, revealed his true nature in a few words,

"Do you want to come to my house? My sister's armor can be borrowed from you to wear it~"

"I..." The other party was a little moved, and nodded neatly in agreement, "Call me when you get off the bus..."

"Hey~ no problem."

I don't know how old the elf 'sister' is, at this time, she naturally leaned on it, and the new spider silk black stockings between her legs rubbed against each other, and it seemed that she was extremely excited....

And the rest of the elves or trolls in the same car, some showed the frustration of 'why didn't you choose me', and some regretfully thought 'it was so fast', but no one accused 'indiscretion', and no one made a noise, everyone tacitly chose to laugh it off....

Originally, the conversation could be temporarily ended here, but the young male didn't know if it was the hormones urging, and suddenly continued the topic of the previous 'accosted', so that the situation changed somewhat;

Just listen, he muttered in a not small voice at the moment,

"Hmph, I don't care, if you dare to come nonsense, then there is naturally no need to follow the rules below..... It's a big deal that you don't want a parliament, don't run a government, and you can't let Your Excellency the Pioneers suffer anyway....."

"Huh? What do you mean? The elf sister looked at him with some puzzlement, and asked suspiciously.

"Isn't there such a 'Mengqi King' in the north, why can't Your Excellency the Pioneer be a 'Elf King' with such a great contribution?"

The lust in the female elf's eyes gradually subsided, and the internal situation of the various races in the northern region flashed in her mind, and then asked in a tone full of incredulity,

"Have you read the book for nothing? Don't want to be a citizen, but want to be a slave of the 'king'? ”

"What slave, how can Your Excellency the Merciful Speaker of the Council regard us as slaves? And with less restraint from others, won't we be stronger and faster under his leadership? ”

"You! Damn it.... Schools are teaching something randomly! ”

This 'prey', which had been looking for three days, not only did not smell good, but also stinked a little, and the elf sister was no longer interested, she no longer stayed, and jumped out of the car from the window in a huff.

"Huh? Not to your house? The male elf shouted outside in surprise and bewilderment;

"Go read to you! Idiot! ”

~~~~~~

And at about the same time, in the treehouse between Iniesta and Azshara, there was also a conversation going on....

"Have you really made up your mind?"

"Yes, I made up my mind."

"But ....."

"I know your concerns, and I still remember that conversation more than ten years ago."

"So why did it have to come to this? Aren't you worried? Earlier, I said that I would only withdraw from the front line, but I would still stay at the decision-making level, so I didn't object, and now I am told that I want to completely decentralize power? ”

"Honey, listen to my explanation~"

"Okay, I'll wait for you to explain!"

Azhara folded her arms across her chest, squeezing the ravine even more secludedly, and her breathing was rather rapid under her anger, which made her tremble and throb slightly.

"One, as you said, 'strength is the cornerstone of a foothold', and I have indeed reached the time to retreat;"

"Haven't you been closed before? Is it necessary to retreat so completely? ”

"It's different, I can feel that this time may be a little long, and it may not be as intermittent as before, and things outside may not be able to be taken care of...... In such a situation, it would be irresponsible to occupy even the other core positions except for the speaker. ”

"It's... Well, what else? ”

Seeing that his partner's mood was a little settled, Nesta took him upside down in his arms, kissed the corner of his eye and whispered,

"Second, the republic is not a dictatorship, otherwise I would never have dared to make the decision to 'go into the wilderness' so easily.... Those who come to power after I am out of power will not be able to monopolize power, and all their actions will be carried out in checks and balances; So as long as I keep a low profile, then there will be no unavoidable conflict between me and him, or between them....."

"Otherwise, even if the next person in power is my son, I wouldn't dare to let go so easily..... After all, the powerful are rotten. ”

"Third, the republic is indeed my life's work, but I regard it as a friend, a home, not my private property, and I can't hold on to it for my own selfish desires when I know I can't do it, and I ....."

Seeing her partner's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Aisara, who had been somewhat convinced, looked up at him and asked,

"And what?"

"And something hasn't been right lately......"

"What's wrong?"

"Part of the pressure brought by the Menghu race this time has been transformed into dissatisfaction with the system, and some young guys even hope that I can become king; There are many more of our compatriots, who do not see me, but who worship me too much and depend too much on me..."

"Are you feeling uneasy?"

"yes, I think that's terrible."

"Why, isn't that bad? The trust of the citizens is the best shield, and although you can use it to look after the republic forever, since it is a 'pain's work', isn't it what you want to carry it with your own hands and lead the citizens to be strong step by step? ”

"No, Ishara, it's different, I hope, but no one should be 'indispensable' for a healthy regime, it must be able to continue to function healthily without any individual."

"But now, there are faint signs of 'I have to be' in the hearts of the people..... So, that's one of the reasons why I'm going to really retire for a while. ”

"Alas...... I see, but I'm still a little unwilling. ”

"Why?"

"This is a kingdom that you have built with your own hands, and you are ready to let it go when it is about to reach glory....."

"It's okay with me...."

"Hell it doesn't matter.... You know what an honor you have to give up? Nesta, are you stupid?!

Her voice was a little excited, her husband's brain-dead operation made Essara's more and more irritable the more she thought about it, she didn't care about her own modest reserve, and she threw a tantrum on her back like a toothy puppy in Nesta's arms.

"Hah! Think of it as an idealist's whim. ”

Nesta comforted as she put her index finger into her open mouth.... The fingertips brushed the fangs and provoked the spirit tongue, and then she took it in one mouth, and opened and closed again, and bit down in a huff.

"Besides, I'm not going to die, I'm not going to go away, but if something happens, how can I not stand up again? Hiss! You tap.... Lick your own clean ....."

Withdrawing his finger, a small bead of purple blood appeared on it, and some traces of saliva remained;

"Even if I scolded 'not fighting' in my heart, didn't I still have to walk forward at that time?"

"Suck ~ You're stupid!"

"Okay, I'm stupid, I'm stupid, right?"

"No, you are selfless, but I'm not so generous, it should be our honor, then it must be our honor!"

"Huh?"

"I've thought about it, if you retreat, then I'll try to climb up.... I'm going to be the president of the council! ”

"This ......."

"Just agree~ I'm in power, you can practice with peace of mind and be the pillar of the country, how good is this? No one in future generations can ignore our merits! You and I must be the most dazzling pair in history! ”

The way her partner spoke, and the excitement in her eyes that she might not have been aware of, brought back memories of Nesta's past.....

Esshara has never been a casual person, she also longs for honor and has her own ambitions;

Decades ago, she was still very weak, but she was a brave man who was extremely confident in the 'aesthetics' of the counter-current, and dared to run to the nest of the monster to steal cubs for research;

Since then, whether it is the crisp and decisive decision of the two at the beginning of the night, or the firmness shown when she went north to fight, or the same advance and retreat shown when crossing the Heihe River to the west, it can be said that her character has been flamboyant and self-motivated from the beginning;

In addition to that unusual appearance, this kind of personality is also the reason why I was attracted to it in the first place.

But over the years, because of the special position she is in as a partner, she has restrained a lot of her own desires, and almost everything will revolve around Nesta.....

At the moment, although half of the 'fireworks' in Azhara's eyes were also burning for him and one-third for 'him and her', with Nesta's 'decision to retreat', there was also a small part of it that was completely her own glow;

As a result, the 'no' on Nesta's lips could not be spoken;

Of course, she had all kinds of lofty reasons, but it didn't seem to be a rope to bind her, so it was.....

"Well, I have no opinion .... Do what you want to do and fight for what you are willing to strive for, and I will become the most solid support, both for yours and for this country. ”

"Really!? There's no need to cheat, I just want your nod. ”

"Really."

"Ahh Undress! Let me love you so much! ”
