Chapter 1807 Parliament (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!!! Please Subscribe!!!)

Let’s not talk about what’s going on in the outside world, the situation in the seabed is not good.

Because now some people have linked the Dark Trident and the theft of the Mountain Copper.

Strictly speaking, Atlantis is not a paradise, it is also a big society. Although the total population of the sea people is far behind that of the land people, the major kingdoms in the seabed have a total population of 200 to 300 million. With so many people together, there are no shortage of moths.

Atlantis is not without crime.

However, at this point in time, the major events that happened in the entire underwater world are just these two.

One is the Dark Trident.

The other is the theft of the Mountain Copper.

Although there is no evidence of any connection between the two, the timing is too coincidental. The Dark Trident appeared in front and the Mountain Copper was stolen later, which forced people to link the two together.

The key is that the news of the destruction of the Mediterranean outpost has also been reported back!

“Your Majesty! Please tell us honestly, where is His Highness Orm? Is he still serving his sentence in the Quicksand Hell?!!”

The Council of Nobles finally discovered the secret of Orm’s disappearance.

There is nothing we can do about it. The Quicksand Hell is a secret force formed by the survivors of the Lost Country. They live in a special ocean - the Sea of ​​Sand!

I mentioned the Lost Country before. In terms of bloodline, they are standard Atlanteans, but when they were in the Cataclysm, they made a completely different choice from the ordinary Atlanteans. They chose to migrate to land.

That was the Sahara at that time. The Sahara was not a desert at that time. Seven thousand years ago, the Sahara was still rich in water and grass. At that time, they were in the east of the Sahara. There was a vast area called the Arabian Desert, in which a mysterious area called the Hollow was hidden.

In fact, there are related legends about this area in the human world.

In 1930, the famous British explorer Bertram Thomas led 25 guides on an adventure. They followed the records in ancient books, crossed the towering Kara Mountains, and visited the mysterious land of frankincense, where a precious spice was produced and exuded a rich milk fragrance. However, in the next two months, Thomas suddenly lost contact, until more than five months later, he unexpectedly appeared in Doha, Qatar, unscathed, and brought back a large number of precious loot and some new species that had never been found on the earth before. But the most shocking thing was that he found an ancient city buried in the sand in that mysterious land, which was hailed as Atlantis in the desert. Although he tried to continue to pursue clues, he failed to make more progress.

They said that there was a lost city in the desert, where there was once an ancient civilization, but the city had been swallowed by the desert. Thomas recorded this story and caused a sensation in Europe. Lawrence of Arabia also heard about this story. He believed that the city existed and planned to go find it. However, he died in a car accident. The story of the lost city aroused people's curiosity, but the truth remained a mystery. According to the Koran, the Ilamites were an ancient tribe, but their history did not appear in the Bible of Judaism and Christianity. They once used black magic to conquer many people on the peninsula, but were eventually destroyed by a terrible drought. Their city was swallowed by the desert and their civilization disappeared. This story reminds people of an ancient mystery, but the truth is still unknown.

Many historians are skeptical about this story, believing that it is just a fictional story in the scriptures, used to warn believers not to go against the will of the Lord God. They believe that there may not be the remains of a powerful ancient kingdom under the desert of Arabia. However, things do not seem to be that simple. In addition to the Quran, there is also a world-famous book "One Thousand and One Nights" that mentions this kingdom. In one of the stories, a man named Abdullah found an abandoned city while looking for his lost camel in the desert. The city had two huge gates that had never been seen anywhere else, and the doors were inlaid with various jewels. He walked into the city, but did not find anyone, only tall walls and magnificent castles. The castle was also inlaid with various treasures. Abdullah secretly took some gems and told local officials about his discovery. However, the officials did not believe what he said, so they asked an expert. The expert told them that the city was the ancient city of Ilam. It is said that Shada, the king of Ilam, liked ancient books. He saw a description of the future world in the book and thought it was a paradise in the afterlife, so he wanted to build a world like it. However, after years of hard work, one of the warriors of Ilam built a paradise city for himself. When he was about to go to this city, Allah sent down a city defense to him. Because they did not believe in Allah and only wanted to fight, Allah sent down a sand city to them, and he and his paradise city were buried under the desert. This story reminds people of the mystery of the lost city, but the truth is still unknown.

Of course, there is a difference between legend and reality.

That city exists on Earth, and that is the city where the Lost Clan is located.

It's just that the so-called treasure does not exist, there is a huge prison there. The most vicious criminals of the underwater kingdom are always imprisoned... and now the name of this city has been changed to-Quicksand Hell!

There is no death penalty in Atlantis, and the cruelest punishment is to be sent to Quicksand Hell.

Here, all the people of the Lost Clan are jailers.

What's interesting is that due to thousands of years of evolution, these people have embarked on a completely different evolutionary path from their own race.

Most of the Atlanteans at the bottom of the sea couldn't leave the water. The people of the Lost Clan are very afraid of water. They are all landlubbers.

These people are considered hereditary civil servants of the Undersea Kingdom. They are not under the jurisdiction of any country. In terms of level, they are at the same level as other kingdoms. But they are indeed jointly supported by several major kingdoms, so if a prison break occurs, they must report it.

Although Atlanna asked them to postpone the report, and the Lost Clan was willing to give face, it was impossible not to report it forever.

Being able to postpone it until now is enough to give face.

So the Atlantis Kingdom Council has now also learned the news.

There was also a scene in Parliament where members questioned the Queen.

Obviously, someone wants to connect Orm's disappearance with the theft of the Dark Trident and Orichalcum!

Political strife is what it is. Let’s not talk about whether there is evidence or not. Anyway, it is as sensational as it is.

For details, please see a certain Golden Retriever and a certain Laoden.

In fact, they didn't really connect these things in their minds. However, in the battle between the Parliament and the royal power, one party must overwhelm the other, so if they can attack the royal power, they will definitely be happy to do so.

But the key point is...Atlanna feels guilty!

The more Atlanna thought about these things, the more she felt that they might have something to do with Om!

Fortunately, Atlanna is not alone.

Kai's identity is rather embarrassing. Even if these people don't really care about his affair with Atlanna, they will still criticize him in terms of face. At this time, they will stand up and speak for Atlanna, that is Adding fuel to the fire.

Simply, there is also Meila!

Mela's identity is very suitable. First of all, she was Orm's fiancée and the recognized queen candidate of the kingdom. Secondly, she is the princess and heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Xebel, and she is also the second in line to the throne of Atlantis ( As mentioned before, her bloodline is very close to Atlanna, and Orm is the first in line. If Orm cannot inherit the throne, then she is the most likely person to inherit the throne).

So she spoke just right.

"Lady Fearon, are you questioning your queen? Questioning the object of your allegiance?!!"

Mela did not respond to the parliament's questions at all, but accused them of daring to question the monarch she was loyal to!

"Of course not!" However, these nobles in the parliament are all experienced. How could they be hurt by such a counterattack? Baroness Fearon said calmly: "We just want to understand, the heir to the kingdom. This is our responsibility as nobles and members of the parliament! Should we turn a blind eye to the whereabouts of the crown prince? "

"The whereabouts of the crown prince is a secret of the kingdom!" Of course, Mela was not a good bird either.

"Even to us?" The baroness was very surprised and asked in surprise.

"Of course!" Mela said matter-of-factly: "Has anyone ever stipulated that kings and queens need to explain and report everything to their ministers?"

"But we are a parliament!!!" These words really made a few members of the noble parliament break their guard. This was a clear sign of contempt for them!

"Then what? Do you want me to repeat the duties of the Council?"

Mela said coldly.

Then, before they could say anything, Meila slapped the huge stone table.

boom!

A huge stream of water exploded, knocking several members of the council upside down.

"The responsibility of the parliament is to assist the king or queen in handling government affairs. You are only the king's assistants and advisors! You can only express questions about the king and queen's questions! You are not making decisions on behalf of the king!"

How would you describe the Council of Atlantis?

Their development is somewhat similar to the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty. The initial cabinet mainly focused on participating in government affairs, which had two main connotations. One was to serve as the emperor's political advisor, understand relevant government information, and participate in consultation on core secrets and basic national affairs. In the formulation of policies; the second is to serve as the emperor's confidential secretary, drafting imperial edicts, edicts and related documents on behalf of the emperor. This can be briefly glimpsed from the "History of the Ming Dynasty".

Once, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty summoned Jian Jin and others and said: "Every day and night, I, Jiaer, are diligent and diligent, and I will speak on behalf of you in the palace. I will always be affectionate, be cautious in the beginning of changes, and protect the end of the world. We are willing to encourage each other." He also said: "I speak on behalf of you. The driver has a secret relationship, and he serves me day and night, and the benefit is not under the minister..." From the above situation, we can see. As the so-called "spokesperson", the cabinet has clerical exchanges with departments at all levels of the central government. In fact, it plays the role of the emperor's think tank or the emperor's staff. "Empty yourself in order to listen." Here, the cabinet ministers are engaged in a kind of admonishment and official work.

After Zhu Di died in 1424, Prince Zhu Gaochi succeeded to the throne and changed the name to Hongxi, which was named Renzong of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Gaochi was a generous but sick man, and his son Zhu Zhanji (Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty) took care of most of the affairs in the court. In order to facilitate administration, the power of the cabinet began to gradually grow, and gradually surpassed the original six ministries. In the history of the development of the cabinet power system, the establishment of the "voting plan" and the "chief assistant" marked the transformation of the cabinet from the emperor's staff to the collective "prime minister."

The Atlantis Noble Council is similar. The background of their establishment is that the queen was exiled at that time, and the prince was hiding in the deep palace because of his green hat, and he was ashamed to face people and could not handle government affairs at all. As the legal heir, Om was still a baby, so their power was infinitely magnified and became a real administrative agency!

But in fact, from the beginning to now, their duties and powers have been clearly defined!

They are just consultants and staff!

They themselves have no power, and their legal power comes entirely from the king!

Unless the king endorses them, otherwise, they have no power to dictate anything to the kingdom!

"You are usurping! You even dare to question your king! Do you want to trample on the holy laws of Atlantis for thousands of years and usurp the power that belongs to the king? !!"

When Atlanna saw this scene, her first reaction was that Meila had gone a little too far. Although these councilors were a little excited, Meila's behavior was still too disrespectful to them.

However, who is Meila? She immediately winked at Atlanna.

Atlanna was not stupid, and immediately understood what Mera meant.

Now these people want to link the issues of the Dark Trident and the Mountain Copper to Orm... This is forcing Orm to death!

If Atlanna stood up to speak for them at this time, wouldn't it be a joint effort to kill Orm?

So Atlanna sat on the throne with a gloomy face, without saying a word.

Since you don't know what to do, just keep silent.

As Mera went crazy, several important ministers of the parliament immediately looked at Atlanna, hoping that their queen would make the decision for them.

But they soon reacted.

Isn't this funny?

Atlanna is indeed an open-minded queen. As soon as she came back, she recalled the parliament. Logically, she should be the backer of the parliament, but... It seems that a few of them want to force the son of their backer to death... This Queen Atlanna still helps them, then the queen is really stupid!

They are also blind, and have always regarded Queen Atlanna's magnanimity as weakness, and actually made things difficult for the queen in such a matter.

This is like 'pointing a gun at a good person!'

Good people deserve to be pointed at?

"Come on!!!"

Soon a group of soldiers appeared in the palace!

"Deprive them of their parliamentary qualifications and throw them into prison!"

Meira gave the order naturally.

Atlanna's face twitched, but she didn't say anything in the end.

To be honest, although these people didn't show much respect to her, the country was still pretty good under their governance. If possible, she would never be so rude to these people.
