Benjamin's top hat was pressed down on his head, but a silver hair stood out disobediently from his temples, just like his stubborn character.

His eyes were firm, his expression was resolute, and his whole body was full of righteousness. All the onlookers present were moved.

Who will God bless? Gladstone or Benjamin? Who represents the true national destiny of Britain? Everyone present had doubts in their minds, but there was no doubt that this debate was not only a change of power between parties, but also related to the future adjustment of the national policy of the Empire on which the sun never sets.

With the size of the economy of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets, once the national policy is adjusted, it is no small matter. Countless industries may decline or rise, countless people may lose their jobs or counterattack, and even countless small businesses may be affected by the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. Countries will die or soar because of London's policy adjustments.

The interests of countless people are related to this debate, and its significance has actually exceeded that of a war.

When Benjamin walked into the House of Commons, the already noisy parliamentary hall suddenly burst into flames. The colonialists in the Tories and some Whigs all stood up and applauded desperately.

"Disraeli...Victory...Disraeli...Victory..." Disraeli was Benjamin's surname, and his supporters expressed their support for him with such an affectionate name.

Some MPs even held up oil paintings of representatives of British colonialism to cheer up the Prime Minister. There were even Palmerston who led the First Opium War, Clive who invaded India with all his strength, and even Cromwell, the protector king.

These are all very famous representatives of the colonial faction in the UK. The war they launched really changed the national destiny of the UK and brought countless benefits to the empire on which the sun never sets.

Gladstone, who was sitting in the seat, looked gloomy, because he had seen that those who supported Benjamin were not his group of Tories, but there were actually many members of the Whig Party.

The Tories and the Whigs were originally the two oldest political parties in the UK. Although the two parties continued to conflict, they had experienced the entire process of the rise of the UK.

On some major policies, they are actual rentiers, especially colonialism. These politicians have been reaping the economic dividends of the colonies since their ancestors. Over the past few hundred years, they have grown up and formed a huge political system. power.

"Benjamin, you are also a difficult opponent! I didn't expect you to be able to unify the forces of the two parties and turn an impeachment against you into an attack against colonialism. You are trying to confuse concepts! "

"But it doesn't matter. It's my established policy to contain you people anyway!"

The momentum of the Liberal Party members was slightly suppressed for a while, but they were not to be outdone. They cheered and booed and shouted, "Military... one man... militaristic... one man..."

The two factions immediately became a quarrel in the House of Commons. Some members even broke through the cordon and entered the 2.5-meter dividing zone, and started pushing and shoving face to face.

This is why weapons are prohibited in the Capitol. In the earliest days of the Middle Ages, members of Congress were allowed to carry swords. At that time, they would draw their swords and fight if they disagreed, forcing Congress to set up a two-and-a-half-meter warning area.

Of course, handguns are now commonplace. In order to prevent agitated lawmakers from shooting each other, it has become illegal to carry weapons.

The speaker and the justice who were responsible for maintaining order were sweating profusely. They must be very grateful for the laws enacted by their predecessors at this moment, otherwise a few people would really die at the scene.

The gavel banged hard, and the speaker's throat was broken. "Quiet, quiet! Everyone go back to their seats, quiet... where are the guards! Pull them away, and if you dare to make a move, they will all be kicked out!"

At this moment, there was a burst of applause in the corridor, and then the palace singer's voice came up: "The Queen's representative... Prince Edward... the Duke of Newcastle... has arrived!"

The future king arrived and brought with him a noble duke. This brought the chaotic scene to a halt. The fighting members retreated to their seats, and the noisy boos gradually subsided.

Edward walked into the venue and frowned at the chaos in front of him. "On behalf of Her Majesty the Queen, I would like to convey the Queen's concerns about this debate to Congress... I wish all gentlemen good luck!"

After saying that, the prince turned around and left. According to general custom, senior members of the royal family will not appear or stay in the House of Commons for a long time. They have their own lounge near the House of Lords. The Queen's concerned attitude sent by Edward is considered to have completed the mission. , at this time he was going to the lounge to wait quietly for the results.

The Duke of Newcastle was here to listen as a representative of the royal family, sitting next to the speaker in the center, while the aide-de-camp sent shorthand notes of the debate to the prince at any time.

The prince's arrival officially announced that all the big shots were present and the debate was about to begin.

Edward left here under the escort of his entourage and went to the exclusive lounge of the royal family. When he opened the door, the familiar figure of Xiao Letian appeared in his sight. He saw a relaxed man looking carefully at the room. The statues on display, especially the huge porcelain bottle as tall as a person in the glass cabinet, are even more eye-catching.

"A trophy, right? Robbed from the Old Summer Palace?"

Edward looked a little embarrassed, "This is a trophy. Please don't be so vulgar. Of course there are trophies in war!"

"Haha... Yes, the loser has no rights, and I don't know what the outcome of today's battle will be... But I see Benjamin's energy, he is unwilling to fail!"

Edward sat on the sofa and lit a cigar. "If you believe in the mature political system of our British Empire, I believe these people will eventually come up with a perfect result..."

Haha, Xiao Letian sneered in his heart and said, "Shit, the outcome of any war in the world has actually been decided before the war breaks out. If you believe in the system, why are you listening in secret? You really think I am a fool..."

Although he was slandering, Xiao Letian would not show it on the surface. He smiled and said, "Thank you for inviting me to come to the Congress secretly to observe. In fact, you don't have to do this. If my identity is too sensitive, I can leave here..."

"No, no, no, you are a distinguished guest of the empire, and your political system has many similarities with mine. I believe that asking you to come and listen will definitely be helpful to your governance..."

"It's me who needs to be sorry. Due to some special reasons, I can't let you come in directly from the gate. I'm really sorry..."

Xiao Letian waved his hand, "No, no need to be sorry. In fact, I am also very interested in who can win this victory in the end!"
