Chapter 690 Joint Council (5)
( ) The video ends here, and the blue monitor goes silent.
The venue was also silent. Everyone was digesting what Sulbacho said just now, everyone was shocked by the subversive fact, and everyone was thinking about the meaning of Sulbacho's penultimate sentence.
Except Reeves.
He stood up from his seat, pointed to the dimmed display screen, and said loudly, "How could you be alive? It's impossible."
"Lies, all lies. It's a conspiracy."
He was very excited, his face was as red as burning coals, the veins on his neck were bulging, and the splash of saliva slightly distorted the projection of a marquis in front of him.
He knew very well that the Surbaccio on the screen was not the real Surbaccio, and more than half of those words were lies.
He knows it, does anyone else know it? He knows that those words are half-truths, and others know?
It is difficult to distinguish lies mixed with truth, not to mention that those words are logical and have evidence.
Reeves looked into the eyes of those people, a feeling of powerlessness welled up in his heart, he fell back heavily on the chair, and looked sadly at the shiny touchpad on the desktop.
In fact, it doesn't matter which sentence is a lie or which sentence is the truth. The key is that the existence of the Supreme Security Council is known.
After the defeat of Edward's fleet, information about the death of Amanda and others was sent back to "Josena". Reeves thought that Tang Fang would release information about the Supreme Security Council to the outside world to attack the opponents of reform.
It's just that considering that the person involved is dead, at that time, as long as he pushes on Sulbajo's head, or slanders Tang Fang, Stanbel and others, it's a trick written, directed and performed by themselves. cause too much impact.
You must know that Anthem Will is on the side of the opposition reformists, so there is nothing to be afraid of.
However, who would have thought that Surbagio's face would appear in front of the camera and tell such a lie, which was well-founded and logical.
"Yes, it's Tang Fang...it's Tang Fang." He seemed to remember something. Standing up from his seat again, he roared loudly: "He has the modulation technology of a biological battleship, that Sulbacho must be a puppet made by him, it must be like this...it must be like this!"
Some looked at him with pity. Like watching a dying wild dog.
The Marquis Robinson next to him sighed,
Said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Don't you understand yet? It doesn't matter whether Sulbajo is true or not, what matters is that Captain Tang defeated the Supreme Security Council, what matters is Elena, what matters is Don The relationship between the captain and Elena."
Reeves froze. After a while, I finally recovered and realized the crux of the problem.
Regardless of how true or false Sulbagio's words are, the three "importances" that Robinson reminded him are the key to the problem.
First, Tang Fang is just. No matter what, he repelled the Supreme Security Council who interfered in the internal affairs of "Aradelle". He is the first individual to defeat a hybrid warship after the Silver Eagles and "Dragon Whisperer". In other words, he is a hero.
two. Elena will replace Surbagio as the Duke of Kenar.
Three, Tang Fang is her fiancé.
In this way, the matter of "Aradelle" is no longer his internal affairs, but the family affairs of Captain Tang. Neither domestic forces nor international forces have the right to accuse him of interfering in the internal affairs of other countries.
Anthem Will no longer wants to admit it, nor can it change the fact that Elena is Congreve's illegitimate daughter.
Amanda, Jill Hassan and the others killed themselves because they colluded with the Supreme Security Council. Now only Congreve's brothers have the right to inherit the title, and Elena is the last one. But because there are disputes about whether Reeves and others colluded with the Supreme Security Council and murdered her brother, Elena is qualified to raise doubts and assert her own power.
Because of the deliberate concealment of Reeves, Stanbel and others, the appearance of hybrid warships on the "Aradelle" battlefield did not spread. Only then did the lords and ministers learn that Captain Tang had won the battle with the Supreme Security Council.
"He actually single-handedly killed a hybrid battleship? How is this possible!"
"Back then, the Silver Eagle Group used the Langinus system to blow up a hybrid battleship. How could he stand shoulder to shoulder with a hybrid battleship? Those biological battleships? They are not worthy of lifting the shoes of a phagocytic body."
Members of the old faction said proudly, "But he did it!"
They who were still resentful towards Captain Tang just now had a different expression on their faces, excited and proud. More ridicule.
Ridiculousness is the best gift you can give to new factions and fence-sitters.
From the entrance stage, to the start of the conference, and then to the appearance of Tyronn, Drizzt, and Turamon on stage, the old-school forces have been in a state of repression, unable to lift their heads after being hit.
Now that the "Aradelle" official media suddenly broke out such big news, they of course want to irony and vent their frustration.
Although "Morning Star Casting" is not a qualified ally, and Captain Tang hates nobles, no matter what, both sides have a common enemy - the new faction headed by His Majesty the King.
As long as Psalmville does not fall for a day, the two sides will be a coalition in the trenches.
This kind of development is beyond the expectations of many people. Surbagio is alive and even said such subversive words in front of the camera. All of you here are smart people, and they are good liars. Whether they are members of the fence-sitting faction or members of the new faction, of course they will not believe this statement, but whether they believe it or not, they can't produce evidence to refute it.
What do the people think? How does the international community discuss it?
I am afraid that after this incident, Captain Tang's fault of meddling in the internal affairs of "Aradelle" will be completely wiped out, and he will become a hero in some people's minds.
Eliminate the Supreme Security Council, which conspired to interfere in politics, and save the people of "Aitia" from fire and water. Such a feat is enough to win a humanitarian medal and a heroic medal.
Not to mention that he will marry Elena, and Elena will compete with his uncles for the inheritance of the territory.
The former is the duke's illegitimate daughter, adhering to the reform spirit of her father's generation, and has the assistance of Captain Tang, who hates the privileged class. The latter opposed reform and tangled with the Supreme Security Council,
It is conceivable who the people will support.
Unless violent means are used to forcefully break the situation, but... Facing Captain Tang's swarm of biological battleships, the "Josena" navy is simply not enough to look at, and because this is the family affairs of the Duke of Knar, it is not easy for outsiders to interfere.
No matter how you look at it, Reeves has no chance of winning, and the Duchy of Kenar is destined to become Elena's territory. At most there will be some controversy.
There are also some old people who don't take it seriously, thinking that this is something that Tang Fang throws out to divert attention when he has nowhere to go. Now the topic of the joint meeting is class struggle, interest struggle, and ideological struggle. There is no direct connection with the "Aradelle" coup. Unless he can buckle up a high-sounding reason for the massacre in "Georgia", otherwise, such a move is meaningless, but it will make people see his essence of being strong outside but doing nothing.
Edwina, Serves, Li Yun and others looked at those ministers of the old school with pity. Even the smiling Henrietta thought that His Royal Highness the Prince Regent had lost his sense of proportion and had become downright stupid.
What's so ridiculous, what's there to be proud of?
It was but a futile and ugly struggle at the end.
Does it have an impact on the agenda of the Joint Council?
No, it has no effect at all.
Praise Will said indifferently: "Eileen... poor puppet."
When he said this, his expression was not calm, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, perhaps thinking of what happened after he ascended the throne that year.
Brothers and brothers always have a lot to talk about, puppets and puppets always feel sorry for each other, don't they?
It's a pity, those who live in darkness. There is no dazzling light.
He didn't know that the situation of "Aradelle" was different from his back then, Tang Fang was not Henrietta, and Elena was not him.
His Majesty's tone was very soft, but his volume was loud.
Many people's faces changed when they heard such content, and they realized the essence of the matter.
Once Elena wins the battle for the title, the Duchy of Kenar will become a vassal of "Morning Star Forge", and the girl will become a puppet.
"Hmph, that little bastard really has a wolfish ambition." Tai Lun said in a mocking tone.
Turamon also sneered. While looking at the old-school forces with mocking eyes, he said calmly to the brothers beside him: "What he does will only strengthen the determination of the wall-riding faction to send troops."
"Avert your eyes? Cut... What a stupid act."
Indeed, by doing so, Tang Fang can whitewash the issue of the "Aradelle" coup and label the opponents of reform led by Reeves as anti-human. But he is powerless to stop the resolution of the conference, and will strengthen the determination of the nobles to attack him.
Tai Lun's initial speech has defined Tang Fang as a cancer lurking in the United Kingdom of Turanx, a time bomb that will continuously radiate negative energy, attack the legitimacy of the aristocratic rule, and shake the foundation of the kingdom .
Now he actually supported a political puppet like Elena. Determined to wade into the muddy waters of the United Kingdom of Turanx, and make an enemy of the noble class.
Will those vested interest groups who want to live a life of prosperity and wealth tolerate his existence?
How can it be!
Drizzt's expression was more complicated. He knew Tang Fang limitedly, but he knew Henrietta deeply. The smile on the lips of His Royal Highness was very clear, without any gloomy color, and this kind of smile only stays on those who have passed through the long night and the dawn is in sight.
Sarcasm and anti-sarcasm. Mocking and anti-mocking smiles filled the venue.
Even if they knew that this was Captain Tang's last madness, those of the old-school forces who were unwilling to give up had to try to resist once, at least they couldn't lose too badly.
Edwina looked at them with pity, and said, "Is it useful?"
Li Yun said: "It's useless."
"But Reeves is over." The Duke of Tucson, who belonged to the fence-sittering faction and never had to choose between Henrietta and Praiseville, said, "Don't you think His Royal Highness the Prince Regent's smile is very bright?"
"Is it bright?" Li Yun sneered and said, "The old dog at the end of his life is just returning to the light."
"Isn't it bright?" Tussana also sneered: "If he is an old dog, you are worse than a dog."
Li Yun frowned, and looked at the projection with sinister eyes: "Do you know what you are doing?"
Tucson said: "I know... I forgot to tell you, the thing I'm best at is making big things out of small things."
"By the way, I would like to advise you again, never underestimate your opponent, or you will die miserably."
The Marquis of Alrudiba of the fence-sitting faction and the Duke of Finney of the old-school faction looked at Tusna with puzzled expressions, unable to understand why he said that.
Arudiba had just voted in favor of Turamon's proposal.
So did Duke Finney.
No one is optimistic about Henrietta.
Except Tucson, who just abstained.
"If it happened again, I would vote no."
Edwina's expression turned cold, which made her face look like an iceberg beauty, but it's a pity that Tussana didn't care.
Li Yun gritted his teeth and said, "You will definitely regret it."
Turamon's vicious dog, Marquis Servis, heard someone's message, and looked back at Tucson.
That gaze was full of murderous intent.
Tusna still didn't care, but looked at Melore and nodded. Looking at Arnaxi in the corner again, he sneered.
At this moment, Drizzt's assistant entered the venue again.
This time he did not pass the pda, but trotted all the way to the Minister of Internal Affairs and whispered a few words in his ear.
Drizzt's expression changed. Walked to the rostrum, whispered a few words with Anthem Will, and then left in a hurry through the side door.
The venue became quiet again, and people looked around curiously.
If you can smoke, I believe many people have lit one for themselves.
Some people cautiously leave their seats. Go into the bathroom in front of the side door and try to relax the tension by changing the environment.
There is only one final stage left in the conference, the outcome has already been settled, and only the announcement is left, but it is interrupted again and again by sudden changes, which casts a cloud of haze on the mood of the members of the new faction.
Hymn Will still has the same face, but he can clearly understand the irritability in his eyes.
Yes, fidgety!
His Majesty the King was not happy about the victory at the last moment towards the finish line, but was upset about something else.
What is it?
The side door was closed tightly. No sign of opening. Drizzt has been out for 5 minutes, and he hasn't turned back for a long time.
The smile on the corner of Henrietta's mouth became brighter and brighter.
Melore took out a handkerchief, wiped his clean hands, and then threw it forcefully on the ground next to him, with a disgusted expression on his face. Because he remembered that Servis had done the same thing just now. He is a prince, but he imitates the actions of a marquis. This kind of behavior will seriously lower his composure.
Gilcott's complexion improved a bit, and he looked at the dead Al Nasi in the corner, without sneering, let alone ridiculing. Instead, there was sympathy in his eyes.
He was wrong and Henrietta was right.
For such a result, he is not annoyed. He is very happy.
It's just that the poor uncle is going to be in vain. I really hope that the old man will not die like this. He will feel very guilty.
Finally, the side door opened, and Drizzt returned to the venue.
He is no longer gloomy like a ghost. But full of vigor and vitality.
Unfortunately, the transformation does not come from positive energy such as happiness and cheerfulness, but from anxiety and anxiety.
He was sweating profusely, cold sweat, trickling down from his temples drop by drop, wetting his brand new white shirt.
His footsteps were no longer erratic, and became very steady. He passed the midfield at an extremely fast speed, walked to the rostrum, cut into the narrow gap between the seats of Tyron and Hymn Will, and said something in a low voice.
Then, His Majesty the King stood up from the most dazzling throne in the entire venue, glanced at Henrietta with cold, respectful and friendly eyes, left the rostrum, and followed Drizzt to the side door.
The meeting place was silent until the figure of Psalmwell disappeared behind the door, like a sudden ignited fuel, a frenzy of discussion broke out with a bang.
No one knew what he was going to do, no one knew when he would come back.
He didn't say anything, just walked out of the venue.
People knew that something must have happened.
But... what kind of urgent matter would cause His Majesty the King to lose his composure?
Tai Lun patted the table hard, and said in a cold voice: "Silence, silence."
He was already irritable, and the voices below made him even more irritable.
The sound gradually died down, and people no longer talked loudly, only dared to whisper, guessing the reason for His Majesty's departure.
"My waist..."
Henrietta straightened up and patted her lower back lightly: "I'm getting old, and my bones are getting worse day by day. I don't know when I will fall on the bed and never wake up again."
"Fate is something invisible and intangible, but it is the most interesting thing in this world, Melore, don't you think so?"
He has remained calm, from the beginning of the meeting to the voting stage, without expressing any objection.
But now, he has said a very long sentence, which seems to be lamenting that people are old and weak, and may die one day, but in fact, he is using this sentence to express another meaning-"I am old , but he is still alive, at least he won’t die today.”
"The question of fate is too profound and noble. Can you talk about something easy to understand? For example, guess when His Majesty the King will come back?"
Melore is a warrior, and he has never learned to save face, even if it is His Majesty the King.
Tai Lun and the young princes beside him gritted their teeth and looked at him.
Melore's stomach growled for a while, and then she held the skirt of her suit to cover her slightly protruding belly in embarrassment, and said to Tai Lun and the others: "What kind of eyes do you have, I'm just hungry, I want to go back to eat early .”
It's embarrassing to say such a thing from the mouth of a prince.
However, no one cared about the content of these words, and people cared more about its essence—Melor was molesting his nephews, using those words that had their own identity.
Many people watched the funny scene in front of them, but couldn't laugh no matter what.
Tucson laughed, out loud.
On the surface, he was laughing at Melor, but everyone knew that he was actually laughing at Tyron, Turamon, and the princes.
It's an ugly scene, isn't it.
Sometimes it takes just a split second to go from victory to defeat, and a split second from glory to disgrace.
Henrietta looked at his projection, eyes shining brighter than the headlights in the dome. (~^~)
