Lord Highlander

  Chapter 1211 1198. Judgment

  The Chamber of the House of Representatives and the City Hall are two adjacent buildings, but the two buildings are not in the same yard.

  In the imperial system, the City Hall and the House of Representatives are two institutions that restrict each other. The City Hall is an institution that maintains the normal operation of the entire city, while the House of Representatives is more like a group decision-maker. Many laws are promulgated by the House of Representatives.

This time, Suldak not only serves as the consul of Ruyt City, but also the speaker of the House of Representatives. In addition, he is currently the lord of a certain private army in the Tarapakan area. Only when these three identities are gathered together can he achieve Real power in Ruyt City.

  The meeting held in the House of Representatives this afternoon was to allow the members of Ruyt City to recognize Suldak as their new speaker.

   As for the position of the speaker, there is another procedure that requires the votes of the members of Ruyt city. If more than 60% of the members agree, Suldak can become the speaker of the House of Representatives of Ruyt city.

  In order to help Surdak get enough votes, Earl Lake Cushing was communicating with the representatives of Ruyt City after lunch...

Count Lake Cushing looked at Councilor Slim who turned and left, and couldn't help frowning. The current situation is much worse than he thought. Usually, there are many councilors who show kindness to him. This time, Count Lake Cushing Speaking of voting, many of these councilors showed some hesitation, and they left without making any promises.

  Count Lake Cushing couldn't figure it out... Could it be that this group of people have **** in their heads?

  With the situation so clear, what exactly do they want to do?

  Put down the teacup in his hand. During the noon period, Earl Cushing drank a full stomach of tea. He closed his eyes and took a short rest.

  Until Mrs. Tanya came to remind Count Cushing that Count Suldak had arrived, and the time to elect the parliament was coming soon.

Count Cushing immediately stood up from the chair, took the towel handed over by Mrs. Tania, wiped his face earnestly, and then walked out of the lounge, joined Suldak who was waiting in the office, and came together to the chamber of the House of Representatives.

   As expected, less than half of the members of the chamber of the House of Representatives came, and the seats of other members were still vacant.

Earl Cushing could only bring Suldak to the rostrum, let him sit side by side with him on the speaker's seat, and then waited for a long time, until two quarters of an hour later, all the councilors arrived, Lake Cushing The earl knocked **** the table to stop the discussions among the councilors in the meeting hall, and the whole hall finally fell silent.

  Count Lake Cushing introduced Suldak to everyone at the beginning.

   Unexpectedly, the members of the audience did not show any gesture of welcome, and even the applause seemed extremely sparse...

   Deputy Speaker Glennis, who was sitting on the left side of Earl Lake Cushing, didn't even raise his hand. It seemed that this was the most superficial perfunctory and he didn't bother to do it.

  Earl Lake Cushing felt that something was wrong.

  ‘At a time like this, is there really someone who will stand up and compete with Suldak for the speaker of the House of Representatives? '

  Earl Cushing bit the bullet and continued to read:

   "... Now, the nomination vote for the Speaker of the House of Representatives in Ruyt City has officially started. I will automatically abstain. Please re-elect the next new speaker!"

   Two congressmen have placed a half-meter-high wooden ballot box on the table of the podium.

Earl Lake Cushing walked off the podium first. Originally, he was holding an envelope, but he didn't put it in, but hid it in his sleeve. He wanted to see the final result of the election vote, maybe the result didn't need him Vote for this one!

  Just as Earl Lake Cushing stepped off the podium, Deputy Speaker Glennis of the House of Representatives stood up first, holding a voting slip in his hand.

  He walked up to the podium slowly, but he didn't enter the ballot box immediately.

   Deputy Speaker Glennis stood on the podium and said loudly to all the members present: "This time, I will vote for myself!"

  The entire chamber of the House of Representatives was in an uproar, and no one expected that Deputy Speaker Glennis would do such a thing.

  Many members of parliament who had already prepared their voting slips tore off the voting slips in their hands at this time, and then quickly picked up a voting slip to fill in again.

   The conference hall was in chaos, only the deputy speaker Glennis showed a smug expression. He stood on the podium and threw the voting slip in his hand into the ballot box.

   "Glennis, what the **** are you doing..."

  Count Cushing stood in front of the rostrum, pressed his hands on the long table, suppressed the anger in his heart, and shouted at Deputy Speaker Glennis.

   "This is the House of Representatives, shouldn't we respect the decisions of the members?"

   Deputy Speaker Glennis responded unceremoniously.

  Earl Cushing was so angry that his face was pale, and he was a little shaky standing on the rostrum.

   This kind of confrontational scene will basically appear every time the House of Representatives in Ruyt City makes a resolution, but this time Earl Lake Cushing did not expect that Deputy Speaker Glennis would actually want to gamble in this situation.

  Earl Cushing could not control the situation, so he planned to suspend the voting.

  At this moment, the members of the council seemed to have changed their names, and they walked towards the ballot box on the podium one by one.

   But this time Suldak didn't give a speech. He strode up to the podium and punched a big hole in the ballot box.

All the congressmen who were about to go to the stage to vote were frozen in place, looking at Suldak and his fist with surprise on their faces. Suldak fumbled in the ballot box before finding the only voting slip inside. .

   Then Suldak tore up his voting slip in front of Deputy Speaker Glennis...

  Suldak pressed his voice and said to the members of the council hall:

   "I am not here to talk about democracy with you. I just tell everyone present that I will be the Speaker of the House of Representatives in Ruyt City for a long time to come."

   "You... are simply unreasonable, you are blaspheming the laws of the empire!" Deputy Speaker Glennis angrily yelled.

   As he spoke, he grabbed the badge of the deputy speaker on his chest, tore it off, and threw it directly on the floor under his feet...

   Then Deputy Speaker Glennis left angrily.

At this time, the councilors on the parliamentary bench were also discussing a lot. Some people wanted to support Deputy Speaker Glennis, and some were also discussing that this time, Deputy Speaker Glennis might also have a backer. Many people stood up from the parliamentary seats and insisted on Keep this vote going.

The moment Deputy Speaker Glennis stepped out of the conference hall, Suldak took out a small box from his magic pocket, which contained a stack of parchment contract documents, and rummaged through the stack of documents for a long time , just turned out a piece of parchment full of records.

  Suldak said loudly to all the councilors on the field: "I now officially announce that Deputy Speaker Glennis is suspected of participating in Lord MacDonnell's rebellion. He collaborated with the black magic in September 2586..."

   "In February 2587, together with MacDonnell..."

  The members of the House of Representatives looked at Suldak dumbfounded. No one thought that Suldak would turn out a parchment full of criminal evidence at this time.

  It's a pity that Deputy Speaker Glennis walked too fast and didn't hear Suldak read out these criminal regulations.

  Finally, Suldak took out another blank verdict, quickly wrote the name of Deputy Speaker Glennis on it, and said to everyone present:

   "I will announce the decision of the military department to arrest the deputy speaker of Glennis immediately, and the military department of Bena province will conduct a military trial..."
