Chapter 36 Wang Yan (1)
The lawn outside Phoebes Manor is vast and vast. The meticulous and flat lawn of Lord Gabriel is a rectangular fountain in the center of which is meticulous and flat. The trickle of water spews out from the black swan stone sculpture, which has another quiet charm in the extremely quiet low garden.
The garden is open, and flowers are all the embellishments that can be seen everywhere, including roses, honeysuckle, dianthus, limes, holly, juniper, boxwood, and of course, violets, which are the main flowers of the manor.
Every year from March to July, some of them will be open to the public. At other times, this place is the Violet Family’s palace.
A group of men and women were walking on the lawn, wearing straight clothes, wide eyebrows and big eyes, and Prince Gabriel was walking in front of them.
Gabriel is the uncle of the princess Nolan, a member of the House of Lords, and the backbone of the Violet family. As a royal noble, the Violet family has been firmly guarding the royal family in recent years.
In the hall of Phoebes Manor, there are many huge portraits arranged, and more than a dozen generations of important figures in the Violet family are among them. This prominent family, which has produced more than 20 members of the House, dukes, and even several kings, has remained strong after the changes of time.
The Violet Grand Duke did not participate in politics, and the political power of the Violet family was led by Gabriel.
Gabriel was surrounded by his wife Britney, Duke Fry, who was also a member of the upper house, Brother Jinxing from the lower house, Xu Yang, Zhu Deyong from the Zhuque family among the Four Saints, and Li Ruiqi from the Qinglong family.
Li Ruichao ranked second in the Champs list, which was famous for evaluating noble girls in the Empire, second only to Anna Su, who ranked first. Every time she appeared, whether it was the House of Lords, which was mostly male, or in this kind of occasion, it was a scenic spot. Even Britney, the wife of Gabriel, would look at it more, thinking that if it weren't for fame, in terms of beauty, Li Ruichao might not be below Anna Su. Of course, not all beautiful women in the upper class of the Empire would enter the Champs list, at least the princess Nolan was transcendent to this list. In Britney's eyes, even Li Ruichao was slightly inferior to her appearance.
"Lin Hai really accepted Lang Bo Beifeng's invitation. It was said that Lin Wei was furious that day and avoided Lin Hai. The father and son had a fuss to such an extent, it is conceivable that the content of Lin Hai and Lang Bo Beifeng's conversation was definitely not that simple. It is even possible that the Snow Wolf family made a promise to Lin Hai and distributed corresponding benefits, thus allowing Lin Hai to stand on their side."
After saying this, Zhu Deyong was very silent, and everyone was even more silent.
The current situation can be said to be very stalemate. The House of Commons and the Imperial High-level officials all felt that undercurrents were forming huge storms.
However, for a long time, the consequences of these tsunamis will be like waves like giant walls of heaven and earth.
Although the power of the Snow Wolf family is unlikely to undergo mutiny, it is also a war without gunpowder. If the Snow Wolf family is allowed to pass the policies that the Assas family will slowly tighten the queen's neck like a lasso. If they are allowed to conquer the high ground, the situation in Congress will be one-sided, and the harm caused will be fundamentally harming the queen, damage the national system, and ultimately making these people profit.
Lin Hai's turnaround will intensify this process.
"The Queen has given him the title of Earl of Notting Mountain. He is a hero of this country. I really don't understand why Lin Hai stood on the side of the Snow Wolf family, which still has a grudge against him." Li Ruiqiu frowned.
"The past is not an obstacle compared to the current situation. Everyone can see that the threats of the Xipang people are very huge. Behind them are the Star Covenant. Our situation in this war is very unoptimistic. That's why the Star Covenant that guides this war is the key to everything. After all, everyone wants to occupy an active and favorable position in the future changes. In such a future, it is probably a land of destruction without the existence of the royal family, and the enemy's starship mechas are everywhere!"
Although he did not get any relevant useful information from Lu Manna, who was familiar with Lin Hai, Duke Free and Lu Manna had completely opposite views. He would not have been as Lu Manna thought. Lin Hai had other plans and difficulties, and he was finally the queen. On the contrary, because of his youth and his familiarity with Lin Hai, Lu Manna took the lead in personal subjective factors and did not see through the essence of things.
Duke Free would rather believe in the dark side of human nature, that is, Lin Hai saw the tragic fate that an unresisting Eagle Kingdom was destined to come, and made a decision that was favorable to him.
Indeed, if the Xipang people and the Snow Wolf family are not enough to be afraid. However, behind this is the power of the Star Alliance, I am afraid that anyone will compromise when facing such a fate.
The Star Covenant monopolizes countless advanced technologies in the universe, and its level of development exceeds all existing marginal countries. If it is really a super power above the Star Covenant, there is a huge gap between a royal family like Windsor and if they want to fight against such power.
No wonder in this case, there will be the Assas and the Snow Wolf family ready to move. They are afraid they already know that they can only become vassals of the Covenant and cannot compete with them.
It seems that at this time, standing on their side is what smart people do.
Lin Hai became such a smart person.
“To deal with future crises, we need to integrate all the power in our hands,” Gabriel said. “We want those who are self-righteous to know that they are too happy.”
"Duke Free, the Zen Star Group is now using their financial power to attack everywhere, trying to create greater shocks. I hope the Rand family can keep the 170 companies on the list. As long as these companies remain stable, the threat of this financial tsunami is not great. The situation in the domestic situation, at least in the economic situation, the Queen will be more confident."
Duke Free nodded, "The Rand family will stabilize the economic situation."
Seeing Freeri's light attitude, Li Rachel exclaimed, "People look up to the Stewart family, which has rapidly risen and accumulated huge wealth in recent years. Countless media are chasing their intentions to dig deeper into the Stewart family's property that shocked the world. But they don't know that the Rand family, which has always been low-key, has a wealth of ten times that of Stewart!"
"This statement is exaggerated." Duke Free shook his head, his expression dull. But it is precisely the restraint hidden behind this dullness that makes people feel a little awe.
Zhu Deyong said, "The Stewart family is known as the 14th family, but in fact, the only one that the empire is truly capable of triggering a tsunami in the financial field is the only one behind the Assas family, which is controlled by their old rival, Duke Free. The so-called round table nobles are not called in vain. Compared with the two families, the Stewart family is just standing on the hills and looking at two lonely peaks."
Yes, the empire has two lonely peaks, one of the Rand family. The Assas family is naturally another.
Many, many years ago, the Rand family had been making arrangements with the Assas family, planning and playing against each other. If anyone else could make Grand Duke Fry show a solemn look, it was the Assas family.
If there is anyone in the Empire who can stop the forces at the hands of the Assas family from attacking and shaking the empire economy, only the Rand family can do it.
"Miss Rachel, the Qinglong family, can you temporarily close the Ares Starry Sky Post?"
"Using a cosmic storm warning, the Qinglong family will try their best to do it." Li Ruiqiu nodded slightly.
The Qinglong family controls the largest postal route trade union in the empire. The so-called postal route is the name of industrial waterways. These postal routes are generally only used for the passage of resource collection and transport ships, and the direction to which the Ares Starry Sky Postal Road is the mineral resource star zone controlled by the Snow Wolf and the Assas family.
Using the influence of the trade union and closing the postal route will certainly allow countless industrial ships to stay on the waterway and have an impact on many aspects of the empire, but the biggest impact at this time is nothing more than the Snow Wolf Assas family.
This is an invisible secret war between the two sides, investing various resources, and being able to use this method to attack their wallets. Gabriel feels that even his side will pay the price, and this price is worth it.
"We Teutonic faction will strive to reject thirty-five proposals in the next Congress." Ge Jinxing made a statement.
Prince Gabriel and everyone walked through the garden like a walk. During this time, they had already drawn up the results, and then the group dispersed.
On the day of the self-delegation ceremony, Lin Hai chose to meet with the Snow Wolf family, and this incident shocked the upper class of the empire. Both sides seemed to be moving gears, and each accelerated their movements.
Gabriel knew that they were the most core force in defending the royal family and would compete with the forces of the Assas Snow Wolf Family Alliance in various fields. At this time, both sides were fully engaged in this struggle, and they no longer knew what the future would be.
Gabriel came to sit on the bench. Facing the vast lawn, there was only his lonely figure on the bench.
He liked the grand and openness of the manor very much. He had grown up here, knowing that every summer, the reindeer herds sipped happily downstream of the garden stream, and had seen the changing seasons of the sunshine on this continuous green hill.
But this time he sat on the bench and looked at the open air in front of him. The dark clouds were moving past the earth, and Gabriel suddenly had an ominous premonition.
It seemed as if there was a force that they could not calculate that was gradually approaching this world.
They only found out later that they calculated the secret battle with the Assas Snow Wolf family, calculated the war without gunpowder, and calculated the economic, political and strategic confrontation with the internal enemy. They thought this was the war at this level.
The two sides fought for political influence, and the empire would not experience any unrest at the military level.
But they never expected that when they thought so, the Snow Wolf Alliance had already planned to fight the capital star in their hands!
