I really don't want to hang up

Chapter 112 The Senate
Last night, Shenbang was fine.

There is something wrong with the small building.

Second watch, cloudy to rainy,
At three o'clock, the light rain turned sunny.

At five o'clock, the sun turned from light rain to clear.

Not long after dawn, the carriage to pick up the elders stopped outside the small building.

Today is an important day for the new Knight veteran to take office, and there is no room for neglect.

In the morning, the Senate will hold a welcome ceremony to welcome new members.

In the afternoon, the Senate had a bill to vote on, and went through a few cutscenes.

"yawn--"

Al yawned and walked downstairs, obviously not having a good night's rest last night.

Although he had just woken up, the patriarch's robes had already been put on, decent and elegant.

When looking in the mirror, Luden said with emotion that she was like a born elder.

Al always felt that this was not a good word.

Awu had already arranged the washing-related utensils neatly, and Al washed his face while ordering,
"You don't need to make lunch for me. The Senate will hold a meeting for a day, and you still have to take care of the meal."

Speaking of this, Al couldn't help laughing himself.

The only advantage of being an elder is that, like a pig, he has no worries about food and clothing.

The elders never had to worry about making mistakes.

Because they basically didn't do anything right and made mistakes every day.

The elder only needs to do one thing right: stand firm with the Holy Family behind him.

Why was the former Knight Senator abandoned by the Senate and assigned to be the bell ringer on the high platform?
It is because he betrayed the Yisha family.

Everything that the elders have comes from the Holy Family, so naturally they should give everything to the Holy Family.

Listening to Miss Ayer's words, Awu nodded,
"Mr. Luden explained yesterday.

He also said that if the Senate can pack food and come back, if there is anything missing at home, he can tell Miss Al.”

As he said that, Awu also took out a list, which read: sugar, salt, pepper, spices, tea (good), tea (general)
Al: .
The moment she saw the list, her face was covered with black lines, and she didn't know what to say.

It sounded like something Luden could do.

Okay, it's very Luden.

After washing up, Al had a simple breakfast and got into the carriage.

When she left, she did not forget to order,

"Awu, you can eat first, Mr. Luden needs to sleep a little longer, and don't lock the door today."

After speaking, Al got on the carriage to the Senate and began his day as a senator.

When Al stood at the gate of the Senate, there was still an unreal feeling.

Are you really a veteran?

Such a joke?

At a young age, she reached the end of the Holy Seed and became an elder.

He lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, then Al held his head up, stepped up the steps, and walked into the Senate like a queen.

When Al arrived at the senate, the senators hadn't arrived yet.

92.3% of the veterans are over 40 years old, and they are truly old people.

It was a bit embarrassing for them to leave the soft velvet bed early in the morning, sit in a luxurious carriage, and rush to the Senate where the winter was warm and the summer was cool.

However, Al didn't care about these details either.

She has no sympathy for the Senate, even though she is already a member.

Al knew very well that it was in everyone's interest for her to enter the Senate, including herself.

Those who took the lead to greet her were the Grand Elder and others.

The great elder with gray temples, holding a wine glass, stood up and looked at Al,

"Before I enter the Senate, on behalf of all the Senators, I welcome Al Isa, the incoming Senator of Knight."

The elder said slowly,
"You've probably stopped enough jokes about the Senate before entering it, there's no limit to anyone's inspiration in the creation of this thing.

But, I must tell you, Miss Al-Isa, that those jokes about the Senate... most of them are true. "

This turn was a bit coquettish, almost flashing Al's waist.

She never expected that the other party would say that.

Don't play by the routine!

The great patriarch continued,
"That's right, the jokes about the Senate are all true. We are a group of stupid, useless, short-sighted old guys. We are a generation of corpses and vegetarians. Our only use is that we are useless. This kind of Senate is a joke of Shenbang .”

Al's face was slightly solemn, and he put away the previous shock and surprise.

She realized that the Senate was not what she imagined.

It is easy to criticize others.

Who can refuse, standing on a high ground and pointing at others?
And self-criticism?
People who can do this. They will never be idiots!

The great elder raised the wine glass slightly, took a breath, and continued,

"The Senate cannot be worse. With such a bad Senate, the Kingdom of God is still strong and prosperous in the past [-] years, which shows that the Kingdom of God is on the right path and that we have done nothing wrong!
A stupid senate is the best senate! "

Shenbang does not need a wise Senate, or a wise Senate.

An ambitious and wise Senate will only bring disaster and destruction to the kingdom of God.

Stupid, but old man.

This is enough.

The elder's words touched Al's soul, and she even wanted to give him a straw.

The old man in front of him is definitely a wise man with great wisdom and foolishness!
Just when Al thought so, Elder Siri unceremoniously broke down the stage and said,
"This is the comment of the third university scholar to the Senate. During his tenure as the Hanged Man, the third university scholar took away two million meters from the Senate with these words."

Apparently, all the elders knew about it except Al.

Immediately the elders echoed,

"That's right! When he welcomed me back then, he said the same thing. He bluffed me for a moment. Later, I found out that this is a parrot, as stupid as I am. I believed your evil!"

"Exactly! What level of education do you all have? Don't you have any points in your mind!"

"."

Facing the accusations of other elders, the grand elder didn't feel embarrassed at all.

As long as he is not embarrassed, it is others who are embarrassed.

The great elder raised the wine glass in his hand, looked around,
"Greetings, Elder Knight!"

"Greetings, Elder Knight!"

A senator can receive the respect of the Senate twice at most in this life.

The first time, was when he/she joined the Senate.

The second time is when he/she leaves the Senate.

All the elders present raised their wine glasses, with the same smile on their faces, said the same words, and drank the same wine.

For a moment, Al felt that he had become a member of the elders.

This place possesses a magical, indescribable magic power—a magic power that turns everyone into idiots.

Putting down his wine glass, the Grand Elder quickly got into work, took out a proposal and distributed it to everyone.

"Okay, when everyone is here, we need to discuss the first proposal. Pang Jager submitted a plan on "Electing Luden Y. Weigold as Tribune", which needs to be voted by the Senate. Is Luden eligible for the Citizens' Assembly?"

Al's expression tightened, he didn't expect to be able to help Mr. Luden just after he came to the Senate.

Seeing her little thoughtfulness, the senior elder at the side smiled lightly and said,
"Relax girl, soon you will understand the true meaning of the Senate, you can do anything, but you don't need to think."

Al frowned, a little puzzled.

Soon, she understood the true meaning of this sentence.

Pang's plan was passed with an overwhelming advantage of 13:0.

Al's vote, no matter how he casts it, will not affect the final result.

In the words of Elder Siri,
"Tribunes? We love tribunes. The Senate loves tribunes!"

Even if the tribune is Luden!
Any tribune will eventually degenerate and choose to join forces with the Senate.

Pointing to an ancient Qiyun saying on the wall, the old man said casually,

"The Senate has everything, the Senators have nothing."

They are the elders who stand aloof, and they are the elders whom everyone laughs at.

They are the pinnacle of the power of the state of God, and they are the deep pit of the intelligence of the state of God.

For eight hundred years, only one truth remains unchanged:
As long as the Senate is still alive, the state of God is still alive.

During the gap between the meetings, the somewhat tired Al looked out the window, and a cloud drifted leisurely. What happened in the Senate today is no different from the past eight hundred years.

Constant repetition, constant reincarnation.
Nothing seems to be able to break this cycle.

Al was suddenly happy.

Fortunately, Shenbang has Mr. Luden.

While Al kills time in the Senate House, the building welcomes a new visitor.

As if returning to his own home, an ordinary man pushed open the door of the small building, hung the windbreaker on the wall naturally, took a cup of tea and walked to the living room, and said to A Wu at the same time,
"Trouble speaking to Mr. Luden, Father Puji from the Inquisition Office is here to attend the appointment."

A Wu memorized every word the other party said.

The other party was very strange, but such strange existences always appeared around Mr. Luden.

Ao Wu is used to it.

Trot upstairs, adjusted his breathing, Awu knocked on the door of Mr. Luden's room, repeated the original sentence, and even imitated the enthusiasm in the indifference.

Father Phuket? !
Hearing this familiar name, Luden sat up in shock while dying, and for the first time an emotion called surprise appeared on his face.

Back then in Qiyun Kingdom, before Lu Deng was hanged, the priest who was in charge of Lu Deng's dying confession was called Puji.

Is it a coincidence?

Or an old friend?

Moved!

It's not his DNA that moved!

It was the twisted rope that Luden was carrying with him that moved!
Lu Deng asked Awu to wait outside the house. He quickly passed on the clothes, went downstairs decently, and met the Puji priest in the living room.

Luden was a little disappointed.

not alone.

People who lived two thousand years ago were probably all dead.

He is the only lonely soul in Qiyun Kingdom, wandering in this land cursed by demons.

As for the duplicate name, it's just a coincidence, or... some history left by the Qiyun Kingdom has influenced Shenbang.

None of this matters.

Luden sat at the table, looked at Father Puji, and said sincerely,
"Father, there was once a chance to repent before me, but I didn't cherish it. If God would give me a chance to do it all over again"

Father Phuket: ? ? ?
Priest Puji could understand every word the other party said.

Can be put together, but completely incomprehensible.

Lu Deng expressed his heart with the most sincere attitude,
"I will say three words to that priest"

"Open the champagne!"
