Chapter 360 Wind and Rain
Remember for a second
Chapter three hundred and sixty wind and rain
After a short and shocking night, the next morning, ^ look
Aside from the monthly regular meetings, meetings of this size are usually rare.
At the meeting, many family representatives discovered a new face, that is the palace senior adviser Charles who has been making a lot of noise recently. This Charles is incredible. He killed three senior members of the family and a collateral royal family, including the heir of the Lincoln family, Lordan. I heard that the shock of the imperial capital last night was due to Charles's escape from the secret prison. "Legend "The thirteenth prison escaped from prison.
Now this person is actually standing in front of everyone intact, and he is standing below the regent and above the minister of military affairs. That kind of position is definitely not for those who are waiting for the judgment.
Even more unexpectedly, the first thing the Regent did was to declare the Lincoln family guilty.
Lordain, the heir of the Lincoln family, instigated Pierce of the Diandre family, Ristin of the Wren family, and the collateral royal family Mia to ambush the senior court adviser Charles, and the result was a failure, and it was entirely his own fault. Desperate for revenge, Sutter, the patriarch of the Lincoln family, misheard people's words, framed Charles and falsely passed on the Prince Regent's order, so that General Doron arrested Charles and entered the secret prison, and even broke into the secret prison by himself, trying to kill Charles, which caused a mystery. The húnluàn of the prison caused many key criminals to escape.
The senior advisors of the palace are the distinguished guests of the royal family, representing the dignity of the royal family. The crimes committed by the Lincoln family are very bad and almost unforgivable. Nian had made great contributions to the empire in those years, so he was extra-judicial and the punishment was as follows: confiscate Lincoln Half of the family's property, deprived of the title of the elder family, executed several elders who "instigated" the patriarch Sartre to make mistakes, and ordered Sartre to stay at home for a year.
The Rennes and Di Andre families were also given warnings and heavy fines as accomplices.
Although the ministers of the elder family factions expressed their opposition to this, and several elder family representatives also protested strongly and even left angrily, Obsidian uncharacteristically did not appease or compromise, but rather firmly maintained the "original judgment". It even faintly stated that if the three families refuse to execute the punishment, they will be enforced by force.
Many ministers and family representatives turned their attention to the silent "Charles" under Obsidian, and they didn't know what method he used to make His Royal Highness the Regent so decisively attack the elder family. In any case, "Charles" must be an extremely favored celebrity right now, and many people have already begun to figure out how to get closer to this senior consultant.
Isabella stood silently beside the Chancellor of the Exchequer Legou Cuaron. She didn't look at Chen Rui, but just stared at the ground quietly.
Seeing that he could no longer stop Obsidian's decision, Rommel rolled his eyes and said, "The Lincoln family has indeed committed a big mistake this time. I believe that after this incident, the Sartre patriarch will learn a lesson and make great achievements in the future. It should be granted permission to return to the ranks of the elder family."
Rommel was the military minister who supported the upper ranks of several elder families. In a sense, he could represent most of the elder families. This statement is undoubtedly equivalent to abandoning the Lincoln family. Sartre was shocked and suddenly became depressed. , as if a hundred years old.
Obsidian nodded with satisfaction. At present, he didn't want to be too stiff with the elder family. After he really mastered the black medicine, it would not be too late to suppress it step by step.
"Only, there is one thing I want to bring up." Rommel glanced at Isabella, "According to my information, Lord Charles gave a 'gift' before being taken away by General Doron. Madam Isabella, asked her to transfer her message to His Royal Highness the Regent as a basis for 'explaining', but Madam Isabella hid herself and did not report it to His Highness, not even to see His Highness to intercede for Lord Charles. "I am personally shocked by this incident, and even more sorry for Lord Charles."
Obsidian has been distressed for the "làng fee" of the bottle of resurrection medicine. Now when he hears the word "gift", his heart moves, and there is a little chill in his eyes: "Rommel, are you sure there is such a thing?"
"I can guarantee this matter with my life. I still have a witness, that is, a shìnv who was present when Lord Charles passed the gift."
Rommel looked at Chen Rui, and said confidently: "In fact, Lord Charles himself is the best proof of this. Not only that, according to the latest information I got, the reason why Lordin ambushed Lord Charles was that he was attacked by Madam Isabella's provocation. The young and arrogant Lordain was dazzled by the beauty for a while, and under the jealousy, he made a big mistake desperately. Speaking of which, the source of all this is this man Mrs. Mandala. Since the guilt of the Lincoln family cannot be forgiven, Isabella is even more unforgivable! I ask Your Highness to deal with it fairly and behead Isabella, the real culprit, to comfort the dead souls."
When the ministers heard the words, there was a burst of slurs. If what Rommel said was true, then today's capital of the imperial capital is likely to die-since there is no room for the Lincoln family to turn around. , then Isabella can't be forgiven either, and the regent can't turn his mouth back.
It would be a pity if such a beautiful flower of the imperial capital perished, but it had to die.
Rommel's meaning is very simple. The elder family broke the arm of the Lincoln family, so Obsidian must also remove an arm. Moreover, this matter was originally a fact. "Charles" is the most powerful witness, so
It is also equivalent to showing favor to "Charles" on behalf of the elder family.
Based on the current situation, "Charles" can make the Obsidian Regent openly attack the elder family, and there must be huge benefits beyond the original expectations. It seems that he has underestimated the other party before. In any case, we must try to find a way. Win this person, no matter how much you pay and be patient.
Looking at the smiling Rommel, Obsidian's face gradually sank. No matter whether the "gift" is true or false, Isabella is a very important figure under his command, not only in political and economic aspects. Talent, and control of the most intelligent intelligence agency, if it is damaged because of this incident, it will definitely be an extremely heavy loss.
The point is that when I dealt with the Lincoln family, I had already talked too much. It must be hard to convince the public to forgive Isabella now. At present, the influence of the elder family is quite large, and it also involves "Charles"... The contact between Yihei and Charles , This human is very vengeful, and the disposal of the Lincoln family is one of the conditions for his cooperation.
Of course, it is impossible for him to be merciful to the enemy.
Obsidian took a deep breath and said, "Isabella, don't you want to explain?"
Isabella's eyes had a faint silence, and she shook her head expressionlessly: "There is nothing to explain."
The corners of Obsidian's eyes were raised, and his eyes passed the gazes of the ministers. He gritted his teeth and was about to announce the disposal decision, only to hear Chen Rui speak: "His Royal Highness, it seems that I, the 'victim', should come out and say a few words about this matter. "
Obsidian nodded, Chen Rui stood up and shook his head: "The first thing to explain is that the so-called gift is actually... There is no such thing at all."
Rommel's sensible smile suddenly solidified on his face, and the one who was most surprised was Isabella. Although the face still remained unchanged, Gu Jing's blue eyes finally burst into flames.
"Charles" was the first party involved. He said that if there is no such thing, then there must be no such thing. Even if Rommel finds a hundred shìnv as witnesses, it will be useless. Obsidian's heart widened and he nodded slightly.
"There is one more thing that needs to be said. When I was imprisoned in the secret prison, His Excellency the Minister of Military Affairs once came to visit me. I still remember that kind of arrogance..."
Looking at Rommel, whose face changed suddenly, Chen Rui's tone became even colder, "I didn't agree to his conditions at that time. Your Excellency appeared in the secret prison. Lord Rommel, as far as I know, the real reason why Lordan assassinated me was because of your instigation, because Miss Isabella and I were too close, and I would become your The Minister of Military Affairs is a political stumbling block. Moreover, I also killed the eyeliner you placed next to the young lady, the coachman Jardel... These things, I need you to give me an explanation in front of His Royal Highness the Regent and all the adults. !"
Rommel was shocked. Unexpectedly, "Charles" not only ignored his favor on behalf of the elder family, but also took a bite and poured the basin of dirty water on him.
These remarks are true and false, interlocking, and reasonable. Although the false parts are few, they are enough to make Rommel doomed. The closeness between Isabella and Chen Rui is well known. Rommel, who is a political enemy, has this motive. Coupled with the events of Sartre and Jardel, Rommel could not find any words to refute.
Many ministers who knew a little bit of pranks believed it to be true, and they whispered again. Unexpectedly, the behind-the-scenes instigator of all this was actually Rommel, who had been shouting to catch thieves, not only to murder Charles, but also to frame Isabella!
Obsidian was calm in his heart, snorted coldly, and his tone was stern: "Rommel, how do you explain it?"
Rommel's face was pale: "His Royal Highness, if this is the case, why did I take the initiative to propose Isabella just now..."
Obsidian interrupted his unconvincing explanation and asked sharply, "Have you ever been to the Secret Prison?"
This matter can be easily found out, and Rommel can only admit through gritted teeth: "Yes, but..."
"Is Jardel yours?"
"Yes...but I was wronged!"
Obsidian shook his head: "This matter is very clear, I am quite disappointed in you, Rommel."
"I remember Mr. Rommel... I just said that I can guarantee it with my life?" Chen Rui added quietly, which was equivalent to putting a knife on the opponent's neck when Rommel fell.
The matter of the Lincoln family has successfully provoked the contradiction between the elder family and Obsidian, but it is not enough. Chen Rui needs to add another fire. Besides, Isabella is Luo méng's aunt, and more importantly, she has control over Bei Yao. The whereabouts of the Lear royal artifact Fengying Boots, so he can't die yet.
Since Isabella's "sin" just now is unforgivable, the same applies to Rommel.
However, Obsidian is still hesitating. No matter what the truth is, Rommel is always the spokesperson of the elder family, which is very different from Sartre. If Rommel is really to be dealt with or executed according to the current standards, then the conflict with the elder family will be Although it will definitely be the case in the future, it is indeed a bit too hasty for the current situation.
However, Charles is the most important collaborator, and there is no one, which is really difficult to decide.
"I can return that sentence to you, Mr. Rommel. Coming to the secret prison that day was the worst decision in your life." Chen Rui said with a look of retribution, adding fuel to the fire.
Rommel was at a loss for words at this time, and an unprecedented sense of frustration surged in his heart.
Some eyes fell on Obsidian to see how he dealt with Rommel. The representative of the elder family, Suo xìng, was silent, as if some invisible power was brewing in the strange atmosphere.
If last night's tremor was thunder, then today is a real storm. If this is not handled properly, it is likely to cause a terrible flood.
At the critical moment, Isabella, who has been silent all the time, finally spoke up: "This matter, it should be that Lord Rommel was confused for a while, and asked His Royal Highness the Regent to take it lightly."
Everyone was greatly surprised, including Chen Rui, who did not expect that the first person to speak for Rommel turned out to be Isabella, the sworn enemy. Just now, Rommel even planned to kill her. It's time to go downhill.
When did the huā of the mandala become free of poison?
Obsidian praised Isabella for taking care of the overall situation, and this advantage was one of the main reasons why he admired this subordinate the most. With this step, Obsidian took advantage of the situation to announce that Rommel was relieved of his military affairs minister and all other positions. As for the candidate for the new Minister of Military Affairs, the elder family will re-elect the candidate at the next regular meeting.
Removal and heavy fines can give Charles, Isabella and other ministers a new generation, and Duolun's temporary replacement in the middle is a buffer period. As for the position of the new Minister of Military Affairs, it is still given to the elder family, which can also be regarded as a generation. . As long as he successfully cooperates with Charles and obtains the only "voice right" for the black agent, then it is not too late to gradually take back his power and replace his own people.
Sure enough, this ending was in the acceptance category of the elder family, and there was no further objection.
The storm finally subsided, and the dust finally settled.
At this meeting, the name "Charles" resounded throughout the upper levels of the imperial capital, and all forces were reconsidering and caring about this upstart who could affect the pattern of the imperial capital.
Although "Charles" caused some troubles to Rommel's attack, he still satisfied Obsidian in general. Before the new Minister of Military Affairs is selected, it is Doron's temporary replacement, and he can do a lot of "articles" that are beneficial to him. .
Moreover, when "Charles" announced the decision, he also gave enough face, and did not hold back any longer.
In fact, Chen Rui's plan to provoke the conflict between Obsidian and the elder family has basically succeeded.
The court meeting was dissolved, and a few cronies such as Doron and Isabella were left behind to arrange some affairs during the reception.
When Isabella walked out of the palace, she saw a figure waiting for her.
It's him.
The beautiful blue eyes watched the man from far to near, an indescribable feeling came to his heart, and the ignorant coldness in his eyes was even worse.
"Innie..."
"You should call me, Mrs Isabella."
He replied lightly, with a cold estrangement, like a passerby, passing by.
Looking up slightly, she saw the dim and sparse dark clouds in the sky, which seemed to be ashes.
