Interstellar: Start as a cleaner.

Chapter 813 Emperor: Disaster Star?
Bart's words directly triggered the dissatisfaction of other nobles.

Nobles who have purchased mechas have posted the quotes and mecha models given by relevant departments when they purchased the mechas.

Some people even posted sarcastic messages online: This is a restriction on our nobles being equipped with special mechas. If some departments can equip them privately on a large scale, then what is their intention?
Some people also posted a series of questions on their social media accounts: How much does a special mecha cost? If it costs billions, how did these mechas end up in private hands? If they can be bought and sold publicly, why don't we nobles have the right to buy them? Which department issued the relevant restrictive clauses?
The issue of the special mechas immediately created a storm of public opinion, and spokespeople from various noble families also raised questions.

The Speaker of the Council of Nobles even stated that he would conduct a thorough investigation into whether this matter was intentionally targeting the nobility!
Then, within one day, the president and three vice-presidents of the Imperial Royal Academy resigned and were investigated by the Council of Nobles.

The Imperial Royal Academy's Mecha Department, instructors and related management have all resigned and are accepting investigations from the Council of Nobles!

All management of the Imperial Military's Mecha R&D department are subject to military review!
The Imperial Military Minister is subject to review by the Council of Nobles!

The head of the Imperial Military Inspection Department is under review by Parliament!

Feng Dewang was dismissed from the Imperial Royal Military Academy and was subject to review by the Parliament of Nobles!
The head of the military supervision team of the Imperial Judiciary is subject to review by the Council of Nobles!
As for the match between Bart and Liu Shanzhi, it will of course be postponed indefinitely.

Bart's fire directly burned out a large number of royal talents.

Most of the people in the Imperial Royal Military Academy were born in the common people class and were recruited by the royal family. Including their dean and vice-dean, they were all new aristocrats, so these people were also subject to the review of the Council of Nobles.

What’s interesting is that the new nobility can only be in the House of Commons, while the hereditary nobility controls the House of Lords, which is the Senate.

The entire system of mecha research and development had been slowly being controlled by the royal family, but unexpectedly, it was completely wiped out because of a single competition.

There are also rumors that Feng Dewang's brother, General Feng, is also under investigation by the Parliament of Nobles.

This incident was considered by many nobles to be discrimination against the nobility. The instructors of the Mecha Department of the Imperial Royal Military Academy could privately own special mechas of the Imperial military, but the nobles had no right to purchase them.

The great nobles were already somewhat dissatisfied with the constant suppression of the royal family. Now that such a handle has been handed to them, how could the great nobles give up!

The emperor of the Blue Water Empire looked gloomy as he looked at the Crown Prince in the virtual projection: "Really, it wasn't you who ordered it?"

"Father, I am not that stupid. I couldn't see such an obvious flaw." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was extremely depressed. There was something wrong with this matter at first glance.

"Hmph!" The emperor of the Blue Water Empire was a little depressed, because according to the current investigation results, someone wanted to target Bart.

At the same time, the emperor of the Blue Water Empire was a little angry that the special mechas used by the imperial army had actually fallen into private hands.

It's true that I rely on the new nobles, but sometimes these new nobles do things in a completely unreliable way.

The exact means by which Feng Dewang managed to seize this mecha is still under investigation, because the Council of Nobles has intervened and the Emperor cannot intervene at all now.

The emperor felt a little tired. When these people were doing this, didn’t they think about the need to keep the special mechas of the military secret?

A special military mecha, although it is an experimental model, is in the hands of a private person.

It's fine if you keep it in private hands, and no one will know if you play with it privately.

But it is stupid enough to use this mecha to fight in a private ring. What is this called? This is called gambling!

"Bart is such a disaster!" The emperor of the Blue Water Empire was also a little gnashing his teeth towards Bart.

However, the emperor of the Blue Water Empire was just a little bit resentful towards Bart, but he did not hold any resentment towards him.

In fact, the emperor of the Shuilan Empire is now a little fortunate that this matter was discovered early. If it had been discovered late, who knows how big a mess it would have caused.

Although the emperor of the Blue Water Empire suppressed the great nobles, he was first and foremost the emperor of the empire. Therefore, it would be best if such a major regulatory loophole within the imperial military could be discovered as early as possible.

The Crown Prince saw his father's gloomy face and hung up the phone. He gritted his teeth and said, "Who the hell did this in my name?"

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not sure whether someone was trying to please him and was doing this in private under his name.

In the past, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince thought it was a good thing for someone to do this, because if something went wrong it would have nothing to do with him, and there would be someone to help him solve the problem.

But now it seems that this kind of thing also has risks, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince strictly ordered the people around him that if anyone does things privately under his name, don't blame him for turning against them.

Yang Bo looked at the spokesperson of the Royal Family of the Blue Water Empire and made a public speech: The Royal Family was paying close attention to the leakage of the special mecha, and hoped that the Council of Nobles would investigate the matter strictly, and at the same time urge the military to come up with practical measures to prevent similar incidents from happening again!

"Butler? Do you think the royal family is saying this on purpose?"

Butler Jerry bowed slightly when he heard his young master's words and replied, "Young Master, His Majesty is first and foremost the Majesty of the Empire. I don't think His Majesty would want such a big regulatory loophole to occur, would he?"

"Does that mean that His Majesty the Emperor wants to reward me?" Butler Jerry didn't know how to respond when he heard what his young master said.

"This is highly unlikely!"

"Do you think I should speak publicly to ask for benefits?"

"My humble suggestion is that you better not do this, Master!"

Butler Jerry found that his words might have had the opposite effect on the young master.

Because my young master spoke on the social account again.

Then everyone saw Bart send a message again: After seeing the royal spokesperson’s statement, do you think I should be appropriately rewarded for exposing such a major regulatory loophole?
Ugh! Many people had the same thought in their minds when they saw Bart's speech.

His Majesty the Emperor expressed his willingness to conduct a thorough investigation because of his duty as the Emperor of the Empire.

But as a royal family, the loss this time is a bit big. Do you still want a reward?
I don’t know how much negative information the emperor has recorded about you in his little notebook. You’d better not do anything bad in the future, otherwise, the emperor will let you know what it means to be an emperor.

After hearing Bart's speech, the patriarch of the Altena family called directly and said, "Bart, are you going to drive our emperor crazy? Do you know how many people their royal family will lose this time?"

"Aren't people allowed to speak out when they've done something wrong? It's obvious that the people hired by the emperor are unreliable?" The patriarch was speechless when he heard Bart's question. Of course, he understood that Bart said that on purpose.

"Just take care of yourself, I won't care about your shitty business anymore." The patriarch of the Altera family had no way to answer such a question. He just cursed without any manners and hung up the phone.

The Council of Nobles made an investigation result the next day. It was found that this special mecha, one of the experimental models of the new special mecha developed by the empire, was indeed taken by Feng Dewang through improper means and then handed over to Liu Shanzhi.

The Council of Nobles made the following decisions regarding this incident: von Dewang's noble title was revoked and the case was handed over to the Imperial Ministry of Justice.

The noble titles of the main leaders of the Mecha Department of the Imperial Royal Academy were revoked, and they were relieved of all their positions and handed over to the Imperial Ministry of Justice for handling.

A warning talk was held with the military minister.

The noble titles of the main leaders of the military mecha research institute were revoked and handed over to the military regulatory department for handling.

For the main persons in charge of the relevant supervisory departments in this incident, their noble titles will be revoked and the case will be handled by relevant departments.

The investigation of the incident by the Council of Nobles showed that no one else was involved.

At the same time, the Council of Nobles commended Viscount Bart and encouraged other nobles to supervise the empire like Viscount Bart.

"Mentor!" Liu Shanzhi looked at his mentor, who had changed from being in his 30s to being in his 50s overnight.

"Alas!" Feng Dewang sighed. He had lost his noble title and would never be able to obtain it again in this life. He also lost his status as a tutor in the academy and might even face imprisonment. Of course, that was all because he had a brother who was a general.

"Bart, you bastard!" Liu Shanzhi hated Bart to the core.

"I was wrong in this matter after all!" Feng Dewanger sighed.

In these short two days, Feng Dewang experienced too many things and implicated too many people. Even his brother, the general, scolded him and said that he had betrayed the trust of His Majesty!
"No, teacher. Special mechas can only play their greatest role if they are given to us. If we give them to those playboys, they will just treat them as toys." Geniuses of the new aristocracy such as Liu Shanzhi have great prejudices against the descendants of the old aristocracy.

The new aristocrats have this impression, on the one hand, because they are constantly brainwashed by the royal family, who tell them that the future of the empire depends on them, and on the other hand, the common people are taught from childhood to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.

In addition, the talented disciples of the great nobles all serve their families in obscurity, and rarely say they want to serve the empire.

Add to that the disciples of the great nobles, and one bad apple spoils the whole barrel. Even if the other disciples of the great nobles did a good job, with two more people like Bart and Allen, the reputation of the entire group of disciples of the great nobles would be ruined.

Alan and Bart openly snatched a woman on the street to take her away as his wife. This scandal will probably be circulated for hundreds of years.

How many disciples are there among the great nobles of the entire Shuilan Empire?

There are only five or six people like Bart and Allen.

In fact, the royal family is intentionally exaggerating this matter in order to suppress the great nobles.

Moreover, there are indeed some incompetent disciples of great nobles who have done some bad things and used the privileges of the nobility to avoid legal punishment. The common people have hated such privileges since childhood, and as a result, they also look down on these great nobles.

"You are right. The empire will ultimately depend on you!" Feng Dewang firmly believed in these words.

"I must defeat Bart in the ring and let everyone in the empire see the true face of this bastard!" Liu Shanzhi gritted his teeth.

"Although I can no longer be a tutor at the Imperial Royal Academy, I can still teach you mecha driving techniques!" Feng Dewang was not discouraged. He had implicated too many people this time, and he had to play to his strengths and repay the emperor's trust.

"Okay, since we won money this time, we will use it to set up a mecha club!" Liu Shanzhi nodded.

The mecha competition between Viscount Bart and Liu Shanzhi will be held in three days.

Liu Shanzhi's new mecha is a 15th generation mecha, also an air superiority model. It carries two energy guns, one long and one short, and four small electromagnetic missiles, which are three times more powerful than Bart's similar models. It also has a small energy shield and mecha cold weapons!
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the mecha configuration chosen by Liu Shanzhi is similar to that of Bart.

This is interesting!

Some people compared Liu Shanzhi's boxing match to a battle of revenge, revenge for his mentor!

"It's so easy to make money from these idiots. But it's better this way. It's a waste to keep the money in these guys' hands. It's better to give it to me to spend it for them. No wonder the new nobles call the disciples of us old nobles playboys. There is no unity among them at all?" Butler Jerry heard his own master Bart complaining while reading the news on the Internet.

Because the gambling has already begun, those who bet on Liu Shanzhi will win more than 600 billion, while those who bet on Bart will win less than 80 billion.

"She bet 5000 million in my wife's name on me to win, and gave the winnings to her as her own money. It's a waste not to make money from these idiots."

Jerry the butler leaned over and answered, “Yes!”

In fact, Butler Jerry was muttering in his heart: According to the information on the surface, Liu Shanzhi is a top student in the Mecha Department of the Imperial Military Academy, and your grades are at best second to last. Anyone would bet on the other party to win, even Master Allen, who knows you well, would bet on the other party to win, not to mention others.
