As those noble members entered the tall white arch of the parliament hall, they were greeted by circles of vermilion chairs like tree rings, filled with members sitting upright.
At the top of the hall is a row of obsidian seats, which are the seats of the ten-person council.
Due to various reasons, it is difficult to sit in all ten positions at the same time, but the scattered three or four people at the top still cannot hide that position and their unparalleled strong position.
The position of the royal family is located above the ten-person parliament, which is a row of only four golden seats.
Yes, according to the imperial constitution, the number of places for members of the royal family to enter the Lanye Empire's parliament hall is four.
At this time, the one at the top was the golden emperor, the Emperor of Orchid Leaves.
In the center of the hall is a circular snow-colored rhinestone clearing, where all sightlines of the entire hall can be focused.
This is the venue used for MPs to give speeches.
At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing a black formal dress was standing there, delivering his speech passionately:
"Dear fellow congressmen, I come from Yanshi County in the eastern part of the empire, which is adjacent to the Aussie Empire. I believe you must know it." He paused and looked at the reactions around him to make sure that everyone was listening to him. , Fang continued.
"The Apocalypse Emperor of Os ascended the throne in February of this year, and then conducted a series of civil wars to suppress his opponents."
"Not to mention the palace coup that shocked the mainland, the blood of the Ste royal family flowed throughout the palace that night."
"Not to mention the suffocating purges in which nearly one-third of the officials were executed on the gallows."
He spoke of well-known facts and compared them impassionedly: "That powerful, young emperor, in the past four months, I believe that most of the people present have their own channels to understand and master the battle reports. .”
He looked around, his voice trembling: "Even excluding those renderings that are closest to fantasy, the new emperor holding disillusionment is still powerful to the limit of our imagination."
"Within four months, he used an army of 110,000 to defeat the Jingnan army, which totaled more than 700,000. I don't think any of us here can do it. Except for our great military god, perhaps, only that Only a legendary emperor can be compared with him."
Then the congressman shook his head, as if to drive away the fear in his heart:
"But he is only twenty-one years old."
"I don't think that this man who ascended to the throne by force and whose blood is all over the crown will spend at least the next two hundred years going hunting in the countryside or indulging in the enjoyment of a huge harem." The congressman used elegant words. And luxury is full of incitement and danger:
"He ascended to the throne by killing his uncle and brother. He has shown us his full ambition."
"But." He paused, and then his words poured out like a torrent: "The borders of the St Empire are approaching their limits."
“Neither shall they go eastward to claim land on the sea.”
"The continent that cannot reach those elves to the south."
"To the west is the terrifying forest that once blocked the original emperor."
He looked around and pointed at his feet: "Only in the north is where the Blade of Disillusionment points."
There were sounds of exclamation and gasping around him. He was very satisfied with everyone's reaction, and then continued:
"Whether this idea is unfounded or an imminent disaster, I think we should respond appropriately. If the emperor really wants to use our land to expand his territory, then we don't mind using our hands to expand his territory. His sword and wand taught him what awe is."
His voice had a thunderous rhythm:
"So, I propose that the Lanye Third Army stationed in Yanshi County should increase its standing strength by 50,000 people and directly transfer the most elite soldiers from various places. The gap will be filled by the local army recruiting new soldiers for training. As for Corresponding military pay, food, grass and ordnance support are also indispensable, I think.”
"Please vote for this proposal."
After the middle-aged man's words ended, the hall was filled with the sound of chatter as soft as the buzz of mosquitoes. The congressmen sitting on the vermilion seats like growth rings talked with their neighbors one after another, discussing how possible this was. At this time, behind the golden seat at the top, a girl with long aqua hair frowned slightly and said, "Dad, how credible is what they said?"
This is a very young girl, sitting quietly on the pure gold seat, the edge of the seat is inlaid with precious and rare gems.
She seemed to be very familiar with this position, so even though it was a long separation, she took it calmly.
In front of her was the pale golden curtain.
The emperor does not cover his eyes. So before she walked out of that curtain, no one knew how many royal family members were here.
The golden-crowned emperor looked lovingly at his long-lost daughter: "That emperor is really powerful and terrifying. No one can guarantee that he will stay in his vast land forever. In fact, I even want to send the Second Legion to Put it there too, if that can curb his young and strong heart."
The girl with long aqua hair sighed and said nothing.
Soon the voting began in the hall. The Orchid Leaf House finally passed the resolution with 812 votes in favor, 125 votes against and 64 votes against. Neither the Ten-member Parliament nor the royal family voted. On the premise of vetoing, it will be implemented by the royal cabinet, and the results will be monitored by the Orchid Leaf Council.
At this time, the business in the parliament hall was finished. During the break, maids kept coming in to replenish refreshments for the members. From behind the royal chair, the girl with long aqua hair walked down from the top.
A snow-white-haired congressman was sitting on the obsidian chair quietly sipping tea. He accidentally looked up and saw the aqua-blue shadow. He couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that I am really old, and I can actually do this." It’s really hard to see that little evil star coming back.”
"...Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!..."
At this moment, there were such crisp sounds in the parliament hall, as if someone was playing grand music.
For a moment, the fragrance of tea overflowed in the parliament hall, and everyone was salivating.
An ominous premonition arose in the heart of the snow-white-haired congressman. He raised his head again and found that the shadow did not disappear, but became clearer. The pretty and lovely girl with long aqua-blue hair looked at him with interest: "Grandpa Lin Xi, Xiaojiu wants to say hello to you."
The old man named Lin Xi's hand finally trembled, and the tea cup came out. The hot fragrant tea raised a bunch of bubbles on the back of his skinny hand and the tea cup rolled down, followed by a final crisp sound, announcing this. There was no longer a full teacup in the hall.
