My name is Ren

Chapter 285 A dog bites a person, not because the dog wants to bite, but because the dog’s owner wants to bite, and it’s not the dog’s fault
The weird atmosphere in the imperial capital did not affect the social activities among the nobles. Instead, the dances and dinners were more intensive than usual.Almost every moment, you can see noble carriages running back and forth between the Golden Ring District and the Silver Ring District, without a moment of tranquility.

The Marquis of Pelagos was sunken deep in the semicircular sofa, holding a crystal cup in his hand, and the amber high rum reflected the intoxicating luster.There are more than ten nobles in the room, they are sitting or standing, the atmosphere is very relaxed.The smell of food, the smell of alcohol, and a faint smell of perfume are mixed together, without any serious feeling.

This is the residence of the Marquis of Pylagos and the headquarters of the Pylagos noble group.As the well-deserved leader of the aristocratic group, as the master, Pelagos paid great attention to the atmosphere when getting along with these people.He will not deliberately create a solemn environment to set off his status. Whether a person has authority does not need to be determined by the atmosphere that can be created.

"There must be someone behind this matter. Rennes may be just a pioneer, and there must be other pushers behind it." The speaker was the fourth member of the noble group, the Earl of Birmingham.There is obviously a reason for a non-hereditary Earl to become the No. [-] figure in the noble group. The ancestor of the Earl of Birmingham made great contributions to quelling civil strife during Orlando II, and Orlando II canonized his ancestor as Earl.

During the period of Orlando V, this dying family rose again due to military exploits. In order to reward and encourage this family who fought for the country, Orlando V once again awarded the grandfather of Birmingham as Earl. Equal inheritance, no reduction of title.Although it seems that Orlando V is very fond of this family, Birmingham is not satisfied.The taller a person stands, the more he will develop a fear of heights, fearing that he will fall down one day.

They own almost everything in this world and enjoy all the nobility and privileges. No one wants their offspring to return to the world of ordinary people.Unsatisfaction, or ambition, desire, made Birmingham join the aristocratic group, wanting to seek an immortal foundation.It was born almost at the same time as the empire, and there will be more than 100 years of privileges in the future, so that the Earl of Birmingham, a non-hereditary nobleman, has also become one of the most important figures in the group.

Of course, what is more worthy of Pelagos' attention is that the fiefdom of the Birmingham family is just on the edge of the imperial capital, at most two days away from the imperial capital.This city called "Guardian City" is one of the four satellite cities of the imperial capital, and it exists to protect the imperial capital during the war.The special location of the city of Wei also makes this city very popular with the noble group, and everyone understands it in their hearts without saying it.If one day, Pelagos or his descendants decide to stand up and overthrow the rule of the Orlando family, then the City of Guards will be extremely important.

For a variety of reasons, the Earl of Birmingham became number four in this small group.

Pelagos shook the crystal cup in his hand, smiled noncommittally, and then looked at the young man on his left who was holding a cat-eared girl in his arms.This young man is actually not too young, but he can inherit the family business in his thirties, so he is indeed a very young guy among the aristocratic class.He lowered his head and whispered to the cat-eared lady, his hands and feet dishonestly made the cat-eared lady's fair skin glow pink, and she kept smiling coquettishly.

Perhaps because he noticed Pelagos' gaze, the young man raised his head and met Pelagos' gaze. He smiled slightly and pouted his mouth, and the cat-eared girl left the room step by step and turned her head three times.He tidied up his clothes, looked around, the corners of his mouth curled up, and a confident smile filled his young and handsome face, "Mr. Birmingham's statement may be close to the truth, but I think there is another explanation."

He stood up and walked back and forth a few steps under the gaze of everyone, "I don't know if you have discovered that the origin of all this comes from the return of Earl Rennes to the imperial capital. In other words, Earl Rennes After returning, these things suddenly broke out. Before that, there was no sign or sign that such things would break out, so can we make a bold guess that Earl Wren is actually the last pusher?"

In the face of some questioning eyes, he did not panic. This is not the first time that such a scene has occurred. Youth is his capital and also his weakness.People are more willing to trust the mature and prudent elders, rather than a young man like him. "I don't believe that any rumors can escape our eyes and ears. I can say arrogantly that any anomalies in the Golden Ring area of ​​the imperial capital are under our surveillance. But this time we didn't get any rumors. Why? Because These people with abnormal movements are not within our observation range, what kind of people can not be noticed by us?"

He stretched out a finger and pursed his lips with a smile, "Those people we haven't had time to monitor are Earl Wren."

"We have just finished assessing the influence of Earl Rennes, and before we have time to take any action, Earl Rennes caused a turmoil due to a small matter, and we have not acted rashly for the time being. To a large extent, this is also our negligence , We underestimated Earl Rennes too much." His attitude towards the mistake was clear and he admitted it.Admitting mistakes is not a shameful thing, but a noble quality. No one will laugh at him, "So I think this matter is just the beginning, and there must be a series of means behind it. The purpose of Earl Wren is actually very clear , he wants to intervene in the Imperial Council."

The Marquis of Pelagos nodded, and the face of the Earl of Birmingham became serious. This young man is the number two figure in the aristocratic group and the most important think tank of the Marquis of Pelagos. He rarely makes mistakes, and everyone is willing to believe him.

"So you see, is this good or bad?" Marquis Pelagos couldn't help asking.He is a successful high-ranking person, and high-ranking people don't need to work hard, someone will take these things and responsibilities for them.

"Of course it's a good thing." He stopped, took a glass of wine from the table and drank it in one gulp, holding an empty glass in his hand, blushing, "Anything that can weaken the royal family is right for us It's a good thing to say!"

At the same time, in the palace not far from here, Queen Pars kicked Wade over with a livid face.She glanced coldly at this beloved male favorite in the past, a trace of impatience disappeared in her heart, "Get out!"

Wade turned over and got up, lowered his head, and retreated with aggrieved expression.Queen Pars's temper has been unpredictable these days, making it difficult to fathom.The spring breeze was blowing on the face one moment, and the face was covered with dark clouds the next moment. If he didn't pay attention, he would be beaten or scolded.Wade clutched his stomach, gasped for air the moment he turned around, a glimmer of incomprehensible light flickered in his eyes, and then went out.

Seeing Wade's faltering steps, Queen Pars' anger finally subsided a little.Prime Minister Gan Wen stood beside him like a statue, looking at his toes carefully.This is His Majesty's private matter, he has no excuse or reason to intervene, and there is no need to intervene.

"This villain, Treite..." Queen Pars slapped the armrest vigorously, and there was a muffled bang, as dull as her mood at the moment, "He actually betrayed my trust, what a damn guy, I want Exile him to the desert to eat sand!"

The effect of Twright's speech was still in progress, but even so it was striking enough.With the support of a great nobleman, the former nobles of the district councilors became more and more active. They kept sending out various lobbying groups and brokers to publicize everywhere in the Golden Ring District.As the young nobleman said, the nobles are happy to see anything that can weaken the authority of the royal family.

These block councilors were originally descendants of the last generation of nobles, so how could they be grateful to the royal family?It can be said that they are all victims of the imperial power. They only have complaints and resentment towards the royal family, and they will never have the slightest gratitude.Once these people enter the Imperial Parliament, it is conceivable that they will become the most staunch opponents of the royal family, and will work together with the noble group to oppose her everywhere.

The most troublesome thing now is that after Tretter's speech, the entire empire was shaken. Almost every district councilor in every city sent a joint letter.They strongly demanded to represent the people and occupy certain seats in the Imperial Parliament.Queen Pars can of course veto this proposal with confidence, but this also means that she has made certain concessions to other nobles in the selection of members of the Imperial Parliament.

Otherwise, the Imperial Parliament might really pass such a bill, allowing those who call themselves "people's representatives" to be included in the parliamentary seats.

No matter what she did, she was in an extremely passive position.

Gan Wen smiled helplessly, the incident happened so suddenly that they were caught off guard.No matter what the ultimate purpose of this matter is, in short, the person who promoted this matter succeeded, successfully putting Queen Pars on the fire.

Agree to the request of those block councilors, the imperial power is lost.If you disagree, you will lose popular support.

People's hearts don't seem to have the slightest sense of existence on weekdays, but at a certain time, they can play a huge role.

Just when Gan Wen was about to speak, a court attendant ran in in a panic. With a frightened expression on his face, he pointed to the gate and said out of breath, "Your Majesty... Your Majesty, the leader of the Industrial and Commercial Party, Baron Salcomo He...he claimed that the Labor Party should also participate in the selection of MP seats!"

Queen Pars froze for a moment, stood up abruptly, gritted her teeth, and squeezed out two syllables from her teeth with meaning—Ren!
