Although the case went through intense debate for nearly a month, there was little suspense about the actual outcome. The Anxi District Court of the Kingdom finally ruled that the city hall lost the case. The "City Hall Institutional Reform Act" was not only contrary to the "Streamlining Act", but also unconstitutional. .
Immediately afterwards, the Anxi Autonomous Territory Assembly dismissed Lu Zhengxuan, the chief executive of the Anxi City Hall. At the same time, former prosecutor Li Fan, who had to resign after his lawyer's license was banned, was investigated by his former fellow prosecutor.
A little more than a month later, the Kingdom's House of Lords passed a blockbuster law, the "Second Amendment to the Dominion Electoral Law."
In the autonomous territories of the Northern Territory, local councilors in cities, counties, towns, etc. no longer need to be nominated by official agencies. Any law-abiding adult citizen can sign up for election. As long as they pass the review of the local election committee and have no felony criminal record, they can Elections for local councilors can be held.
However, members of the Dominion Parliament still need to be nominated by the Dominion Member Qualifications Committee of His Majesty's Privy Council.
At the same time, various local political parties and groups gradually increased in number. However, according to the laws of the Kingdom, caucuses are loose civil organizations. Members must have equal status and can enter and exit freely. The existence of any management structure is prohibited. Any caucus discipline with punitive measures is prohibited. The membership model is equivalent to the membership club model, etc. Otherwise, it will be considered an illegal organization and banned.
...Shinkyo Palace. Two special guests came, Her Royal Highness Christine, the Duke of East China Sea, and Lady Windsor, a noblewoman from the imperial capital.
The splendid banquet hall, the long and spacious banquet table, the snow-white tablecloth, and the bright candlesticks. Lu Ming and Alice sat at the main seats, entertaining distinguished guests from afar.
Alice is wearing a snow-white lace dress and wearing a gorgeous platinum crown. Her beauty is even more spotless, like an angel in heaven.
Lu Ming was talking about recent news. For example, in the waters northeast of the Kingdom, a fishing boat lost its way, entered the deep sea for a long distance, and returned safely. Later, the detection ship that went there discovered that there seemed to be a specific area of electromagnetic interference in that direction. It has been greatly weakened, and the legendary sea monsters that swallowed fishing boats, dense reefs, strange whirlpools, and the terrible gravity of the seabed do not exist.
"Judging from the latest discoveries, it is possible to discover the island where the border tribes live, because the small fishing boat once found traces of human activities on a small island, including iron pots and jars." Lu Ming paused. Said: "But the exploration team is very cautious. We haven't gone deeper yet and haven't found the island yet." Christine spent most of her time tasting delicious food or smiling and listening to Lu Ming's words.
Mrs. Windsor seemed to have a lot to say. Looking at Lu Ming and Alice, who was like a child, Mrs. Windsor had a lot of emotion in her eyes.
At the beginning, when it came to bringing this little brother and Her Highness the Princess together, it was just a desperate move. Who would have thought that today would happen?
However, it seems that it is completely different from the original idea. Her Royal Highness the Princess looks very happy, but she does not seem to have any ambition to compete for the position of the Great Emperor. With the King of Han protecting her, she truly enjoys a happy childhood.
And having said that, there is really nothing to fight for as the Great Emperor of the new empire.
"Qianxing, thank you." Mrs. Windsor was talking about how she was rescued quickly after being captured. The person who rescued her was a woman with an oriental face. She probably knew it was related to this younger brother.
Lu Ming smiled: "It's been almost a year, and you've said it many times on the phone. Besides, nothing would have happened to you originally. Henry never thought of embarrassing you, I'm just worried." Windsor said softly. Shaking his head: "That's not necessarily true. I always feel that William suddenly aged ten years, which is very wrong." Lu Ming said nothing.
In fact, there is a vague feeling that the Western mysterious forces are mainly divided into two major factions, the Griffini faction and the Sonnian faction.
But for the Griffini faction, because the little guy she raised was becoming more and more playful, Alice had no sense of urgency to fight for anything. Therefore, the awakening of this faction seemed to have been delayed by herself.
The Sonya faction is probably the descendant of the warlock group that made Queen Alice hate and plunge into darkness thousands of years ago.
The eldest prince was easily defeated, and this group was indispensable. Over there, Windsor said with a smile: "Okay, let's not talk about this, Qian Xing, you have done a great job in the Northern Territory. Going back to ten years ago, if you say that the Northern Territory will directly elect members, I will not believe it." Lu Ming shook his head. ,
"I don't know if what I made was the right choice, I can only let time prove it." He glanced at Christine and said,
"Kris, why haven't you spoken?" Kristine smiled slightly: "I miss Her Highness the Princess very much, and there are many things I want to say to her." Lu Ming was helpless,
"Okay, I'm superfluous. I'll leave after having a meal with you in a while. Your whispers will give you plenty of time." He added, "But tomorrow, a Sanmai Company aircraft will make its first flight. At Sanmai Company's Let's go to the Nanping R&D base together!" Christine smiled and said: "This aircraft looks very special, so you want to participate in the first flight ceremony?" Lu Ming nodded: "In private, I call this This aircraft is a jet aircraft, which can be said to be an epoch-making product. It is completely different from the way propeller-piston aircraft provide power. The aircraft that made its first flight is a large aircraft used to transport or carry passengers." See Kelly Christine and Mrs. Windsor didn't have much reaction, and said, "Let's put it this way, its cruising speed can reach one thousand kilometers per hour, and its cruising range is about eight thousand kilometers." Christine and Mrs. Windsor were immediately surprised. Looking up in astonishment, Lady Windsor exclaimed softly,
"No way?" Lu Ming smiled: "So, I have to go take a look at the first flight tomorrow. You can go too."
"Then I must go and have a look!" Mrs. Windsor said with excitement on her face, "Qianxing, you are amazing. Many of the companies you invest in seem to be leading the technology!" Lu Ming said with a smile: "How can there be such a thing? !" Lady Windsor clicked her tongue twice.
"Don't be humble in front of us." He said with some expectation: "Then it only takes more than an hour to go back to Donghai from Xinjing? It only takes three or four hours to go to the Imperial Capital? And there is no need to stop for refueling? "Lu Ming said helplessly: "It's not that fast. It just made its first flight tomorrow. Although judging from various previous experiments, there is not much problem in the success of the first flight tomorrow. But when it is launched on the market and airlines purchase it for long-distance routes, it will be impossible no matter what. It will be a few years later." Then he smiled and said: "When the time comes, I will give each of Chris and you a modified special plane." Mrs. Windsor said with a smile: "That's about the same, then Chris and I will Silk is waiting for your gift!" Lu Ming nodded: "When did I not fulfill my promise?" Looking at the gorgeous Kristine wearing a gorgeous silver skirt next to her, she suddenly felt guilty. , in fact, I originally wanted to touch Christine’s silver high-heeled shoes with my feet under the dining table, but when I actually sat on the dining table, I felt different in my heart. Such dirty little actions were not only sorry for Alice, but also disrespectful. Christine.
"Over in the Northeast Sea, you should be more careful when exploring. It snowed in the North this year, and new passages were discovered in the sea. I always feel that there are a lot of strange things." Christine said suddenly.
Lu Ming nodded lightly: "It seems that I'm not the only one who feels this way."
