Chapter 153: What a Bad Fate
>The Privy Council meeting was held in the Privy Council Chamber of the Royal Palace, and the members of the Privy Council of the Kingdom were mainly composed of tribal leaders, tribal religious figures and important officials, and Zhang Sheng, whether in the capacity of the Grand Chief or in the name of the Queen's candidate for Minister of Defense, attended this Privy Council meeting as a matter of course.
There is no recusal system for Privy Council meetings, on the contrary, the appointment of important members of the Cabinet, their candidates are subject to hearing from the Privy Council meeting, and the appointment process is only completed when the Privy Council members vote for approval, of course, the Queen has a veto.
There was no bickering at today's Privy Council meeting, and the members who supported Prime Minister Phillips may be being put under attack.11 The 9 shooting case was a mess, and no one would directly question the queen's decision at this time, in fact, if the queen's heir is the queen's own flesh and blood, and Zhang Sheng is a native of Tannic, even if it is a black man, the transfer of the queen's power will not be so turbulent.
Except for the big chief of Raidon who greeted Zhang Sheng with a non-salty smile, "Duke Sureno's complexion is good, and it seems that his body has recovered", no one else said anything, a total of 21 members of the Privy Council, 18 votes in favor of the vote, and three abstentions passed the appointment of the new Secretary of State for Defense, that is, Prime Minister Phillips, who also voted in favor.
Zhang Sheng did not pretend to be sick, but when there were not many members of the Privy Council who questioned him, he took the initiative to share his views on the development of Tannik's national defense.
The situation in North Africa is not stable today, because the Islamization of several countries in North Africa and the color revolutions initiated by Western countries have created an extremely complicated situation, and some countries have fallen into turmoil. Please Baidu black じ岩じ pavilion,Thank you!
Zhang Sheng proposed to nationalize the armed forces as soon as possible, confiscate tribal armed weapons, and even proposed that all the armed garrisons commanded by chiefs, including the chief chief, be abolished and integrated into the internal affairs forces.
In fact, the former queen's territory in eastern Tannik is no different from modern countries, and even the per capita income has reached the level of developed countries, but in the northwest and southwest, poverty and backwardness, many areas still have strong traces of primitive tribal life, and some tribes even have fights between themselves, so they naturally have a small number of their own arms.
Queen Cypnas nodded again and again when she heard this, this is all her confidant, but she didn't expect that this son-in-law has some enterprising spirit, although she knows that her son-in-law is a powerful person, but she knows that he has a lazy personality, and now she puts the reins on the horse, it is like that.
Chief Raidon sneered in his heart, "Don't Her Majesty want to take in the tribal armaments?" Do you think that if the order is given, the tribes will obediently obey? Do you know how many chiefs, big and small, you will offend? Look at how you have to break your head in this matter?!
Prime Minister Phillips echoed Zhang Sheng's proposal, hoping that the new defense minister would incorporate the armed forces of the northwest and southwest tribes into the national defense system as soon as possible.
Zhang Sheng smiled and nodded, as if he didn't know his intentions, and didn't say much.
......
In the afternoon of returning to Binhai Manor, Zhang Sheng was in the movie room and Pan Peony, who was "accompaniing" him today, to watch the new film "Canghai" produced by Clay Man Film and Television, when the maid came to pay a respect, and lawyer Mitchell came to visit.
Zhang Sheng's life is very comfortable and happy these days, the day before yesterday Alba accompanies him, yesterday she was a sister, today is Pan Peony, such a day is really like entering heaven, it is the movie I watched, and it is also a film that has not been officially released by Clay Man Film and Television, Zhang Sheng's version is a copy without official editing, and Zhang Sheng also raised opinions by the way in the process of watching the movie, such as where it seems too procrastinating, where the fancy use of the lens brings a bad experience to the audience's vision, etc.
was chatting energetically, and when he heard Mitchell coming, Zhang Sheng sighed: "The people of the Zhou family are really troublesome, I have hid in Tannick, and I still have to deal with them." ”
In fact, lawyer Mitchell is not from the Zhou family, but Sasha's friend and alumnus, Sasha's senior, and Tannick's famous female lawyer.
Zhou Nan, who was entrusted by Zhang Sheng, lawyer Mitchell came forward to bail out, because in the police investigation of the case of Zhang Sheng's shooting, Zhou Nan and others were "criminal suspects", and they had nothing to do with the shooting, and they would also be prosecuted on suspicion of second-degree "assault", and the attack was on a big chief with certain privileges, so he needed a high bail to be free, this is still because Mitchell lawyer brought Zhang Sheng's handwritten letter to intercede. Second, Zhang Sheng was a victim in this case, so his letter had a good effect, and the court approved the bail of one million US dollars.
Peony pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "You paid the bail money first, right? But you have to take care of what needs to be managed, and you can't do everything in a big way. ”
Zhang Sheng coughed, it was the preparation of the Guards Cavalry Division, and he himself was more or less the shopkeeper, and most of the specific matters were handed over to Nelson. Zhou Nan's matter seems to be unfazed in Tannic, but in fact, it is in China, especially in the Zhou family, there must be an uproar, I don't know how the Zhou family guesses themselves, they have to have a snack.
......
In the reception room, Lawyer Mitchell had been waiting for a while, and when she saw Zhang Sheng coming in, she stood up and bowed slightly: "Your Excellency the Duke, hello." "She's a slightly chubby white woman in her early thirties, but she's very smart and capable in a black suit.
Zhang Sheng smiled and nodded, motioning for Lawyer Mitchell to take a seat.
"Your Excellency, I have come this time, and I have submitted an application to the court and it has been approved, and there is no suspicion of any violation. Mitchell was the first to make his position clear.
Zhang Sheng smiled, he heard Sasha say that Mitchell is a well-known person with special professionalism, although it is actually Sasha who asked her to be Zhou Nan's lawyer, but since she took the case, her position has been different, and now she only represents the interests of her clients.
As a victim and witness in this case, although she basically does not go to court to testify, as the lawyer of the person involved in the case, she naturally has a conflict of interest when she meets with her, and she needs to report to the court, and she cannot ask herself for some specific information about the case.
"Bella, I see what you mean. Zhang Sheng said with a smile.
Mitchell nodded lightly and said, "I came this time because I and Mr. Zhou Heng from China have been terminated, and my client has been officially changed to Mr. Zhou Heng, and Mr. Zhou Heng hopes that I will handle the matter of returning your $1 million bail on his behalf." ”
Zhang Sheng smiled: "Well, my financial officer will contact you." ”
Mitchell added: "Also, my client, Mr. Zhou Heng, hopes to meet with you, of course, you should choose to have a lawyer present, I don't know if you agree to his request? Mr. Zhou Heng hopes that tonight, at eight o'clock, at the Bernehua Hotel in Chinatown." ”
Zhang Sheng pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes." After a deep look at Mitchell, I felt that if lawyers could do this, this country would not look like a monarchy on the surface, but in fact, contracts and laws are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but it is more advanced than many vain state systems.
