I! Cleaner!

Chapter 423 Everything is ready

"Of course I know what I'm talking about."

Faced with Princess Veronica's question, Leon blinked and then continued:

"And I haven't finished what I said. In addition to the officer selection and elimination order, aren't you also planning to introduce a proposal to expand universal citizen suffrage at the parliament the day after tomorrow?

This proposal not only dilutes the voice of businessmen and prevents them from continuing to compete excessively for profits from the royal family and nobles, but also effectively expands the power of Parliament and gives more groups the opportunity to speak out.

I have read in the newspaper that among the policies you have implemented in recent years, you have vigorously supported the energy industry, reduced taxes for small craftsmen, subsidized farmers, and recently stipulated the minimum hourly wage for factories, so big businessmen do not support it very much. You, but it’s hard to say for other groups.

I don’t know what you think, but I think that once the bill to expand universal suffrage is passed, the new parliament, which is no longer completely controlled by businessmen, will probably very much welcome a new queen who has been helping them fight for their interests. "

"..."

This...can you still look at it like this?

Looking at the princess with her red lips slightly widened and an expression full of astonishment, Leon said with some profound meaning:

"Actually, after listening to you just now about the officer selection and elimination order and the proposal to expand universal suffrage, I even thought that you were already preparing to ask the old king to abdicate.

After all, the royal family will not really support you, but the middle and lower-level officers of the military department, as well as the new parliamentarians representing handicraftsmen, farmers, and workers, can only stabilize their status and power by choosing to support you.

So as long as we wait for a while and push these two things forward thoroughly, the middle and lower-level officers of the military department and the new congressmen who came after the expansion of universal suffrage will be completely tied to your chariot... To be honest, Are you really not doing this on purpose? "

"I...I really didn't think about this..."

After listening to Leon's words with her mouth open, Princess Veronica said with a dazed look:

"My purpose in purging the military is because the military controlled by the old nobles is too corrupt, which has weakened the kingdom's armaments, and to expand universal suffrage. It is also because there are too many members of Congress with business backgrounds, and the proposals in the past two years are too biased... This... …this……"

"This proves that you chose the Kingdom, and the Kingdom in turn chose you."

After opening his mouth to define this coincidence, Leon stared into the princess's eyes, switched the corresponding badges, and persuaded with a serious face:

"It doesn't matter whether you did it on purpose or accidentally, but the things you have been doing all these years have really given you feedback and become your most powerful support!

So you don't need to feel uneasy at all, let alone any psychological pressure. After all, you are not an ambitious person who wants to seize power. You just did the right thing. "

"..."

Did I just...do the right thing?

She was so confused by what Leon said. After reciting this sentence twice in her heart, the princess unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes with her palms, then bit her lower lip and shook her head:

"Middle and lower-level officers and new members of parliament, they... although they are indeed strong support, after all, they are only support and have not really gained power. In the past few hundred years of the kingdom, the royal family and nobles have been leading everything. They This behavior will never be tolerated.

If I really did that, it would be fine if it worked. If I failed, the whole kingdom would definitely be in chaos. And the Ice Kingdom has just experienced a severe winter. When the weather gets warmer, if they take advantage of the chaos in the kingdom... …”

"It can't be messed up."

Leon shook his head, then pointed at himself and said:

"Have you forgotten? I am the biggest old noble! You are worried that the House of Lords will judge your throne as invalid, but I, the Lion-Hearted Duke, am the deputy speaker of the House of Lords.

Even if you need it, I have a very good relationship with the last member of the Baohua family, and I should be able to get her support, which means that the Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House of Lords are now on your side! "

"This is different!"

Faced with Leon's proposal, the princess, who was breathing a little quickly for some reason, quickly shook her head and said:

"During the Lane Blood Night, many important members of the Lane family died, and only Miss Emma was left in Baohua. The current twin pillars of the kingdom no longer have the same status as before.

Although according to the laws at the time of the founding of the country, as long as there are people from your two families, the seats of the Speaker and Deputy Speaker must be reserved, but when that happens, you two will not be able to determine the outcome of the House of Lords' judgment. "

"That doesn't matter. According to the laws of the kingdom, the joint approval of the Speaker and the Deputy Speaker is equivalent to direct approval in the House of Lords. If it cannot be passed, there is something wrong with the House of Lords itself."

Leon, who had thought about this problem for a long time, said without blinking:

"If the House of Lords goes against the wishes of the two speakers and forcibly decides that your throne is invalid, then you can use the laws of the kingdom to decide that the decision of the House of Lords is invalid?"

"ah?"

"What I mean is, don't follow their rules. At times like this, everyone should play their own game."

Leon looked directly into the princess's eyes and explained earnestly:

"You don't need to make the House of Lords recognize your throne, you just need to find a reasonable reason and start dragging the House of Lords to argue with each other so that they can't legitimately judge your throne to be invalid. Even if you achieve your goal.

After all, as long as your throne has not been judged invalid, you are still the queen in name only. The House of Lords has no power to directly mobilize troops to drive you out of the palace. However, with the support of middle- and lower-level officers, you can completely mobilize troops to surround you. House of Lords...after all they've broken the law, haven't they? "

"..."

Ah, this...is this still possible?

Seeing that the princess had not fully opened her mind and was still thinking about "acting according to the rules", Leon, with piercing eyes, couldn't help but remind her:

"You said that in the entire royal capital, there is only one garrison in the royal palace, and the rest are all outside the royal capital. No matter how elite the guards of the noble estates are, they can't overcome the organized army with heavy weapons. What's the splash?

To be fair, according to the current situation, if you don't care about being justified, you don't even need to surround the House of Lords. After all, no matter how powerful the old nobles are, there is only a team of guards in the royal capital.

As long as two teams of soldiers are mobilized, one team is to seal off the manor on Sequoia Avenue to prevent the people inside from coming out, and the other team is to block Lowther Arcade and pile whatever they want into the river, the House of Lords will be the same as before. The earth was dissolved.

After all, anyone who can speak in the House of Lords has to be a viscount, and there are only a few nobles above viscount in the entire royal capital, and they all live in those two streets. You surrounded their whole families. , are you still worried that they won’t listen to you?

To put it more bluntly, you just want to succeed your father's throne, and you are not planning to take the lives of those old nobles. Do you think that based on their loyalty to the royal family, they will take the lives of their own family and those who can mobilize troops? Are you stubborn? "
