my wife is a consul

Chapter 477 Donghai Declaration and Prison Visit

The ring-shaped hollow conference table is very huge. The heads of the nine alliance members sit one by one, and on a separate high table next to it, sits a very dignified old man, who is the "guardian of freedom of belief" of the alliance. Charles IX, Grand Duke of the East China Sea.

Lu Ming was speaking, expounding his opinions on the idea of ​​establishing the secretariat of the alliance and the improvement of the collective defense treaty.

But Lu Ming felt a little guilty in his heart. He always felt that the Grand Duke was paying attention to him. When others were speaking, the Grand Duke seemed to be too lazy to look at him. When it was his turn, he kept staring at him.

I don't know if Christine told her old father that she was her lover.

Or rumors from outside reached his ears.

Fortunately, I wrote the manuscript in advance. Although I was a little distracted, I still explained clearly what I wanted to say.

……

The intermission of the meeting is the so-called coffee break.

In the lounge, Lu Ming made his own way. After all, the rest are elected leaders. Only this Montenegro general is more like a dictator, but because of his special relationship with the East China Sea Region, he was allowed to join the alliance.

Even the only other Central Continent leader, Li Yuande, a senior official from Xinji Province, also chatted and laughed with those Western leaders, and was not close to Lu Ming.

Lu Ming didn't care about these things either. He sipped his tea and closed his eyes slightly to rest his mind.

"General Lu..." There seemed to be a figure coming in front of him. Lu Ming opened his eyes, but it was the Governor of Ayton State Michelson.

Sanmai Company is located in Ayton State, so Ayton State is also a state that Lu Ming is more concerned about, and the investigation of Michelson is also very detailed.

Of course, democratically elected governments often bring certain uncertainties, so Lu Ming, Michelson's political opponents in Ayton State, also conducted a detailed investigation.

Including Li Hanchao, the leader of the Ayton State branch of the Justice Party. Although he lost to Michelson in the last election, he is undoubtedly Michelson's strongest opponent. He is a native of Central Asia, and he actually has an ethnic advantage in Ayton State. However, voters in Ayton, who are used to partisan politics, still look at the candidate's campaign promises and the possibility of fulfilling them.

Michelson had a good reputation during his administration, but Li Hanchao had no experience in governing. Before Michelson's reputation collapsed, voters should have sought stability, and it was more secure to vote for Michelson.

But the problem is that with the chaos in the imperial capital, it is inevitable that ethnic disputes have become an inevitable problem.

Li Hanchao grasped this point, and was using the blood of Zhongzhou people to publicize the Zhongzhou people's autonomous prefecture. The governor should be a topic of Zhongzhou people, which also aroused the resonance of many Zhongzhou people.

In the next general election, it is very likely that Michelson will lose to Maicheng.

Seeing Michelson sitting next to him with a lot of thoughts, Lu Ming felt in his heart that there is still more than a year before the next general election in Ayton State, and Michelson should be aware of the crisis.

"General Lu protected many innocent Griffinians during the riots in Shengjing, which is really admirable!" Michelson said with a sigh.

Lu Ming was slightly taken aback. The people present rarely cared about what happened in the Northern Territory. Although they all knew about the xenophobic incident in Shengjing, they seldom got to know the real details.

"Eyton State, I hope it won't become the next Shengjing in the future!" Michelson shook his head, took a sip of tea.

Obviously, what worries him is not that he will encounter Waterloo in the next general election, but he is more worried about the future fate of him and the Western ethnic group living in Ayton State.

Most of the Westerners in the Zhongzhou inhabited area are not as sensitive as him, and many of them are still living in dreams.

Lu Ming patted his hand lightly, "Don't worry, no, I still believe in my people. The riots in Shengjing were triggered by many factors, and many Griffinians there were originally The offspring of criminals, also committed many crimes."

Michelson smiled wryly and drank his tea.

Lu Ming looked at him and said, "I will help you in the next year's general election. Besides, if you lose the election, you can go to Montenegro to live."

Judging from the investigation results of Michelson and Li Hanchao, if he had to choose between the two, he would rather choose Michelson.

Not to mention the secret investigation, as far as their campaign strategy is concerned, Li Hanchao is manipulating ethnic antagonism, and labeling everything that his predecessor did wrongly, including the Roswell project introduced by Michelson, and Li Hanchao will get rid of it quickly.

This involves their own interests, and even threatens their long-term goals.

I also look forward to the day when people from Zhongzhou live in the prefecture, and people from Zhongzhou can generally serve as governors as soon as possible, but it will not be Li Hanchao.

Over there, Michelson was slightly startled when he heard Lu Ming's words, and turned his head to look at Lu Ming's solemn expression. Michelson nodded slightly: "Thank you!"

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Speaking of Li Hanchao, he is from the Justice Party, right? I know a lot of old friends from the East China Sea Party Headquarters of the Justice Party."

Suddenly thought of Gao Wangling.

The leader of the Beiguan Branch of the Justice Party was once a terrible woman.

I don't know what kind of sense it is for her, it's very complicated, but I definitely want to send her to prison with my own hands, and I haven't changed it.

But at the beginning of last year, Gao Wangling was already in jail.

So far, it has been more than a year and a half.

Still because of the little devil's case, Gao Wangling was prosecuted by the prosecution. In the end, she was convicted of obstructing justice and sentenced to three years in prison.

There is no cover-up crime in the law of the East China Sea. When relatives commit crimes, relatives have the right to concealment. That is to say, from a legal point of view, we must emphasize human nature and believe that concealment between relatives does not violate the law.

Even knowing that a relative has committed a crime, there is no need to provide any evidence to the police and prosecutors.

However, you cannot indiscriminately fabricate false testimony to exonerate your relatives.

That would be obstruction of justice.

Gao Wangling was believed to have given a false statement when the prosecutor was investigating the little devil, and she was convicted accordingly.

For this case, I deliberately didn't care about it. Moreover, I was really too busy at the time, during the war in the Northern Territory.

I don't know if it was Baqueluo's relatives and friends who took revenge.

Because Gao Wangling deserved what she deserved.

But if you think about it carefully, if it was the revenge of Baqueluo's former political allies, then Gao Wangling was imprisoned because she was also implicated.

After all, in the Beiguan Municipal Committee back then, Gao Wangling was just like the mad dog she raised, she kept baring her teeth at Baqueluo.

Baqueluo's past can't help him, and he regards her as a blowing bucket.

"General Lu, there is one minute left, we are about to enter the arena!" Michelson's words preoccupied Lu Ming's thoughts.

Lu Ming stood up with a smile, "Okay, let's go!"

……

From October 953th to 10th, 9, the second summit meeting of the Eastern Economic Union was held in the East China Sea, and the East China Sea Declaration was issued at the meeting.

The main content of the "Declaration" is that the alliance will maintain and promote the peace, security and stability of the empire, further strengthen the peace-oriented values; enhance regional vitality by strengthening political, security, economic and social and cultural cooperation; ensure that the citizens of the alliance live in In an environment of justice, rule of law and freedom; establish a stable, prosperous, highly competitive and integrated common market and manufacturing base, and realize the free flow of goods, services, investment, personnel and capital; in accordance with the principle of comprehensive security, all kinds of forms of threats, cross-border crimes and cross-border challenges, etc.

At the same time, the alliance established a secretariat to coordinate the actions of the members of the alliance. The secretary-general will be nominated by Charles IX, the guardian of the alliance, and will be voted by representatives of all members of the alliance.

The alliance also signed the "Eastern Regional Alliance Collective Security Treaty", the main contents of which include that when any member of the alliance is attacked by an armed force, it should be regarded as an attack on all members of the Eastern Alliance.

However, the proposal to set up the Supreme Command of the Alliance Army in the East China Sea to coordinate the actions of the armed forces within the territory of the Alliance members was ultimately shelved due to too much controversy.

……

Feilie Valley Women's Prison is the only women's prison in Donghai. It is located in the satellite town of Donghai - Feilie City. There are about [-] to [-] female prisoners in the prison. It is also the population of all female prisons in Donghai. Nowadays, especially in Donghai, women It is rare to commit serious crimes that would lead to prison. There are tens of millions of people in Donghai urban area and satellite towns, and the population of women's prisons is less than one ten thousandth.

In men's prisons, nearly [-] criminals are serving their sentences, which is close to one-thousandth of the prison population.

Those who don't pay attention to this information will actually be terrible to think about it. One in a thousand people will be imprisoned for crimes.

In fact, as Lu Ming studied law, he naturally knew that the prison population ratio in Donghai was actually pretty good, lower than his own country in his previous life, and much lower than that of a big western country in his previous life.

Now Lu Ming is sitting quietly in the visiting room of Ferrie Valley Women's Prison.

Today, the 11th, is the visiting day, and the visiting room is full of people.

In fact, if you want to visit the prison today, you have to apply at least a few days in advance.

Lu Ming came here directly after attending the meeting, but he had a lot of mouth, took the lawyer's certificate, and frightened the female warden for a while, and finally gave special approval to allow Lu Ming to attend the 18 o'clock, which is the last batch visitation.

Today's visiting room is not separated by glass like in the previous life, it is just a small table, the visitor and the prisoner sit opposite each other, but it is strictly forbidden to transmit anything.

The tall female prison guards around looked at these visitors with vigilance.

Most of the prison visitors are close relatives of the prisoners, and they all stretched their necks in anticipation.

Finally, the small door over there was opened, and the female prisoners in prison uniforms entered one after another.

There are visitors who have begun to sob softly.

Lu Ming looked at Gao Wangshi who was slowly walking over and sitting in front of him, and was a little dazed for a while.

Gray prison uniform, and it is obvious that makeup is not allowed inside. His face is haggard, his hair is cut short and a little dry, and he is completely different from the beautiful young woman who was elegant and noble in the cheongsam in the past.

But the smile on Gao Wang's face was very happy, "I knew you would come!"

Lu Ming smiled wryly: "I didn't expect that I would be the only one among the places to visit the prison. Otherwise, it would take some trouble!"

Gao Wang smiled lightly: "Why didn't I write "You?"

Lu Ming thought for a while and said, "I'm here to ask Li Hanchao, are you familiar with him? Your colleagues in the party."

Mrs. Gao thought for a while, "Is that Li Hanchao from Ayton State?" He pursed his lips and smiled: "You want to investigate a person, and you should know more about him now than I do. You really came here for him?"

Lu Ming smiled: "It seems that you are in a good state of mind, and you still like to fantasize like that."

"Of course, I'm inside now, eating well and sleeping well, weaving every day, and living a fulfilling life." Gao Wang smiled and glanced at Lu Ming, "Congratulations, and, shouldn't you be playing in the Eastern Conference today?" Summit?"

Lu Ming smiled: "You are still so well informed."

"There are newspapers inside." Gao Wang always had a smile on his face, and it seemed that he was really happy.

Lu Ming felt a little guilty for a while, but he still wanted to get to the point, "Did Li Qinghe, the whip of the Ayton State Justice Party, have a good relationship with Mr. Gao?"

Gao Wang said with a smile: "That's all in the past, who will care about me now?"

Lu Ming nodded: "I thought that with your ability, even in prison, it would be easy to remotely control things outside, but it seems that I was wrong."

"I want to live a simpler life in the future." Gao Wang smiled, still staring at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming coughed, "I bought you some fruits, delicious food, and daily necessities. They shouldn't dare to skimp on them. They will hand them over to you after checking." Standing up, "I'm leaving!"

Gao Wang nodded lightly: "I wish you better and better, thank you too!"

Lu Ming got up and walked out of the visiting room, but he could feel Gao Wang's gaze was on his back.

The outside is a long corridor, and the small square separated by barbed wire is supposed to be the place for the prisoners to relax daily. However, today is the prison visit day, and it is evening again. There are no prisoners in the small square, but there are a few female prison guards pacing.

One of them was very tall, and he walked over quickly at this time.

Lu Ming didn't pay attention at first, but suddenly he was taken aback. The female prison guard got closer and closer. It turned out to be the speechless warden who was refuted by him more than an hour ago. Her name was Judy. For some reason, she liked to wear green prison guards. He is extremely tall, should be more than 1.9 meters and [-] meters taller, half a head taller than himself, coupled with his sturdy figure, it feels oppressive, but his appearance is good, and he is said to be good-looking, but according to his current Aesthetics can be called beautiful, and those with a score of [-] or above are definitely considered beauties in the eyes of ordinary people.

Also, being a prison warden in his 20s must have his own advantages. Sometimes, appearance is also a particularly advantageous weapon.

Seeing that the direction she was walking seemed to be talking to him, Lu Ming stopped.

"So you are General Lu!" Unlike an hour ago when she gritted her teeth in disgrace, the female warden was full of smiles.

Lu Ming smiled and said, "It's me."

Judy's smile was even brighter. More than an hour ago, her nose was not her nose, her face was not her face, and her nostrils were upturned.

"Mary told me about you earlier, but I don't care much about politics, but the first time I met someone like you, General Lu, I suddenly remembered what Mary said. I just called and confirmed your identity with Mary."

Lu Ming smiled: "Oh, you are Mary's good friend."

A girl like Mary Neptune is afraid of being divided into groups, and Judy is probably the same.

Of course, this is their own sexual concept, and I will not despise them with double standards, because if men and women are truly equal, there is no essential difference between me and her.

Moreover, I couldn't tolerate my woman being unfaithful to me. From a certain point of view, it was worse than the two of them.

Thinking wildly, Lu Ming said, "Mary has been promoted to lieutenant colonel now? She left the military academy and returned to the naval headquarters, right?"

"Yes!" Judy looked at the barbed wire fence between the two of them, and said, "General Lu, go to my office, and I will apologize to you!" She gestured and shouted, "Come and open the door." Pointing to Lu Ming not far away "There's a small door there, you can come in."

Lu Ming nodded: "There's no need to make an apology. It happens that my friend is serving her sentence here. I want to hear about her situation."

That's okay, I wanted to say hello to this side, and take care of Mrs. Gao, at least not to be bullied inside.

……

In the administrative building on the second floor, Lu Ming followed Judy to her office on the second floor.

"General Lu, Gao Wangling is your friend, right? She is not in good health, why don't you help her get medical parole?"

Just as Lu Ming sat down, Judy offered a cup of coffee graciously, and asked with a smile.

Lu Ming glanced at her, wondering if what she said about "poor health" was true, or there was something in her words to create conditions for herself.

"Anyway, at the beginning of next year, after two years of her sentence, and one third of her sentence is left, can she apply for parole?" Lu Ming asked.

Judy nodded, "Of course, she has always performed well and should be able to get parole, but it still depends on the results of the parole board's review."

Lu Ming picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, sighing in his heart. In fact, what about the legal system of the East China Sea? With his current status and resources, it is not difficult to fish out Mrs. Gao in the name of medical parole. .

Of course, I am the top class. Compared with some systems, I can do whatever I want with a little bit of power, which may be better.

After all, ordinary people can't feel their own privileges, and what ordinary people come into contact with are the lowest-level ruling officials. Such group corruption is a painful experience that ordinary citizens may encounter.

Moreover, if he is still a pure political figure in the East China Sea, his political opponents, such as those who sent Gao Wangling in, will take the opportunity to expose all kinds of shady scenes.

Or if some reporter is following this matter, they must break the casserole and ask the end.

You will be in trouble yourself.

However, he is a warlord outside the East China Sea and has a special status in the East China Sea, so he is not afraid of these things.

It's just that if this is the case, Judy will be unlucky.

"It's better to wait until the parole period." Lu Ming shook the coffee in the cup, "But during this time, please take care of her." After thinking about it, "Arrange for me to send her to Ren'ai Hospital for a comprehensive physical examination tomorrow. If the physical condition is really bad, follow the procedure."

"Okay, I understand!" Judy smiled slightly, sitting on the sofa with a tall and oppressive body moved closer to Lu Ming, and said with a light smile, "General Lu, do you have any arrangements for dinner?" Stick it on Lu Ming's thigh, and slowly draw circles with your fingers.

Lu Ming is helpless, this guy probably hasn't eaten the luxury set meal of the Eastern dictator, and wants to try something new, which will be her bragging capital in their small circle in the future.

He took out his checkbook and wrote a check for 1 yuan, and sent it over, "I don't have time, so go and eat by yourself! Eat something delicious, and I'll treat you."

Judy stared blankly at the check, her pupils constricted, and her breathing became short of breath.

Lu Ming stood up and walked outside.

She was not asked to do anything beyond her authority at all. This check represented the serious inequality between the two.

1 yuan will crush your personality and self-esteem casually, and what you think is not worthy at all.

What's more, I'm afraid you won't dare to take it, and you have to obediently send it back later.
