Chapter 431 A harmonious meeting (Part 2)
The most important moment has come!
It was not only the finance minister and Joshua who were tense. When they heard Lyon mention the "personnel adjustment proposal sent by the military", everyone in the huge main hall who knew that the princess had been blocked by a large number of non-commissioned officers in the prime minister's residence three days ago held their breath.
Although the reforms of Princess Veronica in recent years have caused a lot of losses to the old nobles, most of them can only be regarded as "indirect attacks" and "small fights" and have not hurt the root.
But this time the non-commissioned officer replacement order is different. Although this proposal does not directly dig up the root and deny the legitimacy of the noble status, if it is passed, for a group of old nobles, it is equivalent to being kicked in the leg. They can only walk on one foot in the future and lose most of their right to speak in front of the royal family.
According to the process of the two houses of the kingdom, the upper house has a very high proportion in "legislation". Once this proposal is passed by the upper house, the lower house can only revise the details. No matter how much it is delayed, it will be implemented bit by bit, and there will be no room for maneuver.
Therefore, what the Acting Speaker is going to say next will almost determine the future of the old nobles and even the entire kingdom. It is the most important proposal in the kingdom in the past hundred years, and it may even be the only one!
"Haha, it seems that everyone knows what I am going to say next."
Under the gaze of a thousand pairs of eyes that were either nervous, expectant, worried, or excited, Leon first looked up and looked around the main hall, then slightly raised the corners of his mouth and raised his voice suddenly!
"Today, the first proposal that needs to be voted on by all the members is the military's door guard abolition order! Those who oppose can speak now!"
"I oppose!"
When Lyon was halfway through his words, the middle-aged man who had just stood up and accused the princess's reform of being a betrayal of the kingdom's code stood up and roared with a flushed face:
"This is absolutely a messed up order! The military's door guards must not... guards?"
"Yes, guards."
Lyon on the main stage nodded and replied with a smile:
"The first proposal that all the members need to vote on is the proposal to abolish the military's guard office.
The Minister of Defense believes that the military has enough non-commissioned officers and patrol guards, and there is no need to set up a separate guard office. He wants to abolish it to save expenses... Are there anyone like Mr. Morley who opposes the military's abolition of door guards?"
"..."
Ah? It's not the non-commissioned officer replacement order that needs to be voted on?
After hearing the words of the Acting Speaker, the members in the main hall were all stunned, and then they hurriedly began to look through the proposal list on their desks.
As expected, in the thick stack of proposals marked with the military department's mark, there is indeed one... one-sixth of the paper mentions the order to abolish the guards.
It's just that because the matter is too insignificant, so small that it doesn't even deserve a separate piece of paper, it's just mixed with two lines of words in "other miscellaneous items", so that no one even has any impression.
But think about it carefully, this trivial order to abolish the guards is indeed submitted by the military, and the proposal on personnel adjustment, the acting speaker is not lying.
It's just...
...
"Puff..."
Looking at Marquis Morley who stood up from his seat in indignation and was about to take the lead in resisting the non-commissioned officer replacement order, but ended up lighting mosquito coils with anger, a low muffled laugh could not help but sounded in the seats on both sides of the main stage.
Those who had a grudge against Marquis Morley, as well as the members who were not officially present but only qualified to listen, laughed out loud. For a moment, the whole main hall was filled with a happy atmosphere.
"No one else expressed their views? It seems that the only person who thinks that the military guards are very important and must not be abolished is Lord Morley."
After all the members laughed enough, Leon on the main stage picked up the small silver hammer, knocked the small golden bell with a clang, and said with a smile:
"One hundred and sixty-seven to one, the proposal to abolish the military guards has passed. This proposal will be sent to the House of Commons later, and the House of Commons will supplement the details and implement it... Lord Morley, please take a seat."
"..."
Been fooled!
Amid the laughter around him, either trying to cover up or being unbridled, the middle-aged member's face, which was already flushed due to nervousness, immediately darkened two shades and looked a little purple.
When Marquis Morley, whose face had turned the color of liver, sat down, Lyon nodded to him, and then, under the murderous gaze of the other party, he smiled and said:
"Sorry, I just made a little joke with you. Now it's time to get down to business."
When he said this, Lyon's expression became slightly serious, and then he picked up the hammer and knocked on the small golden bell, and said earnestly:
"Next, what you need to vote on is the most important one among the proposals submitted by the military this time.
Whether this replacement can be promoted will determine the future of the military and even the entire kingdom, and determine whether many non-commissioned officers can still wear their original clothes."
It seems that this time it is really a non-commissioned officer replacement order.
Seeing Lyon's extremely serious expression, the expressions of all the parliamentarians also became serious, sitting upright and waiting to participate in the vote.
"I declare."
After jokingly glancing at Marquis Morley, who was sitting on his right and looked like he might jump up at any time, Lyon said loudly under the gaze of countless parliamentarians:
"The second proposal to be reviewed today is the uniform replacement order for military non-commissioned officers! Please vote!"
After hearing the three keywords of "Military Headquarters", "Non-commissioned Officer" and "Replacement Order", Marquis Morley, who had just failed to lead the charge and jumped into the ditch, stood up again, and then...
He sat back down with a bang.
"Puff"
"a ha ha ha!"
Although His Excellency the Marquis responded much faster than last time and sat back before even opening his mouth, he didn't say anything, but it seemed like he had said everything.
Faced with Marquis Morley, who fell for the same trick twice and jumped up on his chair like a spring, even those who were in the same camp as him couldn't help laughing this time.
"Your Excellency, Acting Speaker!"
After biting his cheek hard and suppressing the smile on his face due to the pain, the finance minister sitting on the side of the main stage stood up and demanded with a serious face:
"It's enough to make a joke once. Today's agenda is very tight. Please put these unimportant issues aside and deal with the more critical proposals first!"
"Uh-huh."
Lyon responded perfunctorily, then struck the small bell with a hammer, and said to the congressmen in the audience with a smile:
"Then we will proceed to the third vote. This time we will vote on the same proposal submitted by the Military Department.
This proposal still affects many non-commissioned officers and determines whether they can still have their original bowl of rice. Like the previous two proposals, it will have a profound impact on the future of the kingdom..."
Got it, they’re just playing tricks on us again.
After hearing this extremely familiar vague description, the members of the House of Representatives in the audience naturally did not fall for the third time and started to flip through the documents at hand.
Sure enough, there were three lines of words below the "proposal to abolish the janitors", which was the "proposal to expand the food budget". The description of the impact was completely consistent, and it was 100% bullshit.
As the saying goes, you can do it once or twice, but not over and over again.
Faced with this answer that was literally on his face, even the most irritable Marquis Morley no longer tensed up, but leaned on the back of the chair with his arms folded, looking at Lyon on the main stage with a sullen face, ready to Wait for him to continue talking nonsense, but...
"Non-commissioned officer replacement order, please vote...87654321."
It only took 0.35 seconds to count down the seconds in a blur. With a confused look on the face of a congressman, Leon directly rounded the small silver hammer, and with a bang, he knocked down the small golden clock next to him, knocking down all the seconds. The words he wanted to stop were drowned in the sound of the bell.
"There is no objection, the non-commissioned officer replacement order is passed."
