Chapter 1267 Competition
The next day, the location was still the human palace. This is the three-day court meeting of the human race (generally speaking, the court meeting is not so frequent, once every three days is not bad, it can be regarded as a diligent king), and the ministers who got up early for three consecutive days are also a little tired, but today there is really no way to stop. Come on, after all such an important event, everyone is now paying attention to the direction of this matter.
The time for the court meeting was approaching, and the ministers in the palace hall were basically all present, and Li Huailin arrived at the gate of the palace relatively early today. As soon as he walked to the gate, Li Huailin saw a familiar person waiting for him at the gate.
"Macken." Li Huailin waved his hand and shouted at the current Deputy Marshal McCann of the Second Army who was waiting at the door.
"Marshal!" McCann walked over here immediately. He was originally waiting for orders in the camp of the Second Army. In fact, he also knew what happened in the main city, so the Second Army might be dispatched. He was waiting for Li Huailin's order in the camp, but he didn't come while waiting for Li Huailin to come. Instead, he waited for the report on the successful resolution of the First Legion's incident. Not to mention, soon McCann received another surprising news, that is, Li Huailin was going to take over the head of the First Legion, and he was going to be promoted to the head of the Second Legion, which made him wait I can't go on anymore. McCann came to the main city last night, but he couldn't find Li Huailin. He could only wait for Li Huailin here in the morning and meet Li Huailin before the court meeting.
"Oh, you know everything?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes Marshal." McCann said immediately. "Marshal, is this really alright? Are you really going to the First Army?"
"Hey, it's not good to give you a promotion." Li Huailin said.
"Not the marshal. You are indispensable to the Second Army now." McCann said, "And I don't think I'm capable enough to be the marshal."
"You are much better than me." Li Huailin patted McCann on the shoulder.
"Marshal, you are joking, I can't compare with you at all." McCann said immediately.
"You see, I am basically not in the barracks, but the Second Army has not had any major problems so far. Do you still need to doubt your ability? Believe me, there is nothing wrong with it." Li Huailin said, "This time In the court meeting, I will push you to the top position, and you will fight hard for me. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Marshal..." McCann thought for a while. Still habitually obey Li Huailin's orders.
"Okay, let's go in." After Li Huailin finished speaking, he walked directly towards the palace hall. McCann here was also behind Li Huailin, so that people could clearly see the relationship between the two.
Everyone in the hall is almost here now.
Li Huailin looked left and right, and Carcelos had also arrived. Compared with yesterday's meeting with Queen Marina, Carcelos' confidence here was slightly improved. It's not just because of what he has in his hand, Marina also doesn't want to see Li Huailin control the two large armies, the First Army and the Second Army, so Karcelos feels that he still has great hopes today.
"His Royal Highness is here." With the voice of a guard, Anthony here officially appeared on the stage, and all the ministers immediately fell silent, and the court meeting was about to begin.
"Okay, everyone is lucky." Anthony was also a little tired, because this matter really made him bother to think about it. He consulted the opinions of many people, and now he has finally made a decision, "Today's main topic is the appointment of the acting head of the First Army. Everyone is clear about the situation of the First Army. There are more than a dozen non-commissioned officers who are waiting for trial, and the First Army is still in chaos, so a person who can be in charge will be elected to solve the current problem, so this matter must be settled today."
After Anthony finished speaking, he looked at the bottom, and then continued: "The current situation is. There are two candidates, the Duke of Aquitaine here. Then there is the Deputy Marshal of the First Legion, Karcelos. It's already clear, so I want to ask everyone's opinions first, which one do you support to become the acting commander of the First Legion?"
Although he probably made a decision in his heart, Anthony here decided to ask the opinions of the ministers, after all, this is also a very important matter.
The ministers looked around, and in fact they had already made a decision, but no matter how rashly they came out to speak, this matter was to offend others, and they dared not take the lead. At this time, everyone looked at the top civil servant, Prime Minister Maher, and it was best for him to come up with the head.
"I have something to say." Mahe here really stepped forward. Karsellos breathed a sigh of relief at this time, of course he has received the news, last night Anthony summoned Prime Minister Maher to enter the palace to discuss, of course the discussion must be about this matter, and Karsellos can also confirm that Queen Marlene at the time Na was there, of course, the sure answer would be to promote him to be the acting chief of the First Legion.
"Prime Minister, please tell me." Anthony nodded. Of course, Maher had already discussed with him. Letting him stand out is just to set an example. See if there is any objection from others. If there is no objection, it will be passed.
"After listening to the Duke of Aquitaine's words yesterday, I went back and thought about it, and I really felt that what the Duke of Aquitaine said was reasonable. No matter what, Count Karcelos failed to find out that a dozen of his subordinates rebelled. This is really too big a mistake, so I feel that according to the current ability of Count Carcelos, it is really difficult to be qualified for the post of legion commander, so I think that the Duke of Aquitaine should act as the commander of the First Legion temporarily." Maher said.
"What?" Karsellos was taken aback, "No, Mr. Prime Minister..."
"I'm sorry Count Karsellos, this is not just my judgment." Mach turned directly to Karsellos and said.
From the perspective of others, what Mach meant seemed to mean that everyone thought so, but Karsellos could understand that what Mach meant meant that both the emperor and the empress meant it.
Sure enough, as soon as Maher here finished speaking, Anthony above nodded directly: "Well, what the prime minister said makes sense, what do you think?"
"The ministers also think that what the Prime Minister said is reasonable." An official here immediately came forward and said, of course he is a member of Ma He, the kind of diehard, of course Ma He immediately came out to support whatever he said.
Now that the first person came out to support, of course, many people came out later. A large group of officials immediately came out to support Ma He's judgment. There are not only those who support Ma He but also those who don't want to annoy Li Huailin. In fact, there is still a big gap between the candidates on both sides. Li Huailin belongs to the first official of the empire. Although Carcelos is also a big official, there is still a gap compared with Li Huailin. Of course, everyone knows the difference between the two sides. Who should be offended, so most of the officials basically go to Li Huailin's side.
"I see." Anthony nodded. Of course he also trusted Li Huailin. In fact, it has not changed. The reason why he couldn't make a judgment immediately yesterday was mainly because of other people's opinions, first of all, the opinions of the ministers, and then the Queen. Recently, he has been reminding him that Li Huailin's power is a bit big, so he is also paying attention here.
But yesterday’s situation was a bit different. In fact, yesterday the Queen didn’t know why she supported Li Huailin’s becoming the head of the First Legion, and her personal support was not counted. She also persuaded the Prime Minister Mahe here. Let Li Huailin be the acting head of the army, so this matter was actually settled last night, and today is just a formality to see if the ministers have any objections.
"In this case, it is decided that the Duke of Aquitaine will temporarily act as the head of the First Legion and be responsible for handling all the affairs of the First Legion." Anthony said, "The things on Wilham's side..."
"By the way, I'll be in charge of interrogating this matter." Li Huailin suddenly came out and said.
"This..." Anthony was slightly taken aback.
"I am willing to work with the Duke of Aquitaine on this matter." The Prime Minister Maher said suddenly.
"Well, that's fine." Anthony nodded, Li Huailin and Maher should be able to handle this matter well, and he should avoid it a little because it involves his father.
"So, McCann." Anthony also saw McCann standing next to Li Huailin, "You will be the head of the Second Legion for the time being, is it okay?"
"Yes, Your Highness." McCann came out and said, "I have no problem."
"Yeah." Anthony nodded.
"Your Highness." At this moment, Carcelos finally came to his senses, "Your Highness, this..."
"By the way, Earl Karcelos." Anthony nodded, "And you, although you are not suitable to take over the position of legion commander at this time, but you have made contributions before, so you still stay The First Legion."
"Yes, yes." Li Huailin said with a smile, "Although I have become the head of the legion, there are still many problems that need help. Although Earl Carcelos said he has no ability, he is at least a member of the first legion. , follow me around."
"It seems that this Earl of Karcelos really provoked the Duke of Aquitaine." The ministers next to him whispered.
"This...Your Highness..." Karl Selos's face darkened, and he wanted to continue, but Anthony stopped Karl Selos with a wave of his hand.
"By the way, the queen also mentioned before that the celebration banquet can no longer be postponed. Although something has been said, the matter of rewarding meritorious sergeants must be implemented immediately." Anthony said, "How about this, Wilhelm Let's hold a celebration banquet immediately after the matter with Tom is over." (To be continued)
