Chapter 687 Free Speech
Perficott did not hide the Dream Bell and the collective dream from the people of the North.
This is meant to calm the people. If it is hidden from the people, it will not have any effect.
After Purficott announced the incident, although most of the people and nobles expressed understanding, some people still expressed dissatisfaction.
"This is an invasion of personal privacy! Who gave her the power to do this? Are we even going to be deprived of our freedom to dream?" At the door of the National Assembly Building, a middle-aged man with a righteous look on his face appeared. The young man was giving a speech, preaching some inflammatory content mixed with ulterior motives: "Why did she do this? What right did she have to do this? Who approved she did this?
The people didn't know, the National Assembly didn't know, and even the cabinet didn't know what she was doing!
This is a trampling on democracy and freedom! This is the arbitrary act of a dictator!
We should initiate the impeachment of the Earl of the North! She must never act so recklessly again, and she must never bypass the National Assembly again to do anything without the consent and permission of the Assembly! ”
This speech obviously attracted a lot of people to watch, and some good people even boasted and applauded, but most people just looked on with cold eyes, or even looked at him with an expression that looked like a fool or a clown. A poor performance.
For the real rulers of the Victoria Empire, this kind of rhetoric is just a performance, not even a performance.
Is there a problem with Purficot bypassing the National Assembly and the Cabinet to do what she wants?
In fact, there is no problem in terms of legal procedures or the rules of the political game of the empire.
Because she is the lord of the North, she legally possesses all the power in the North. She is not subject to interference in anything she wants, let alone the permission of the so-called National Assembly and Cabinet.
On the contrary, whatever the National Assembly and the Cabinet want to do, they need her permission and support.
But obviously, some people want to use this as an excuse to try to incite public opinion against Perfectcott.
Just so-called freedom and democracy? Speaking of this in a feudal monarchy country, is there something wrong with your brain?
This is also the reason why everyone thinks this is a poor performance. In Victoria, saying these things will really happen.
"Earl Brandless, I wonder what you think about this matter?" At this time, in the National Assembly Building, the Duke of Gloucester, who is now the Speaker, looked out the window at the people who were giving a passionate speech downstairs. Congressman, asked Perfectcott who was drinking tea next to him.
The Duke of Gloucester had no choice but to ask. This was tantamount to directly provoking Perfectcott, and even involved restricting her power and infringing on her interests in the north.
If Purficott thinks that this is an attempt by the National Assembly or the cabinet to restrict her or something else, causing Purficott to fight back, the consequences will be disastrous.
In order to avoid unnecessary political disputes, the Duke of Gloucester specially invited Perficott to come to the National Assembly for consultation and communication between the two parties to avoid misunderstandings.
"You would actually invite me to enjoy such a good show in advance. You must have already received the news, right?" Purfict put down the teacup in a leisurely manner and looked at the Duke of Gloucester, who almost lost his temper. Laugh out loud.
“Let’s not tell secret stories. We all know what this is about. It’s just a group of people with ulterior motives who want to take this opportunity to gain power and benefits! As long as you and I are willing, we can do it at any time. End this farce, end it even before it happens." The Duke of Gloucester did not look at Perficott, but asked her frankly: "But when I do. When people tried to prevent this from happening, they were stopped by the Northern Intelligence Organization. Obviously this was your work, Count Brandlis! That's why I invited you to the National Assembly and wanted to ask you something! Question, what do you want to do? ”
Not only the Duke of Gloucester, there are too many people in Beloberg who are concerned about what Purficott wants to do.
No matter what she wants to do, only by knowing her intentions can it be easier to take sides.
Whether it is opposition, support, or even neutrality, this can gain benefits for different groups.
But the first step is to find out what Purficott thinks and what she wants to do.
"What do I want to do? That's a good question." Purficott laughed, then leaned on the sofa, and said with a very comfortable expression: "If I say I don’t want to do anything but see what trouble this fool can cause?”
“If that’s what you think, of course there’s no problem.” The Duke of Gloucester shrugged. All Kurt had to do was be willing to take a stand, no matter what attitude she expressed.
"Aren't you worried that this fool will really incite public opinion and even affect the entire National Assembly and Cabinet?" Purficott looked at the Duke of Gloucester curiously. It was obvious that she was more concerned about the careerists behind the scenes than the matter itself. What is the purpose of .
Want to prevent her power from expanding further? This is possible and necessary.
After all, Perficott is now the supreme ruler of the North. If she wants, she can completely bypass the obstruction of the National Assembly and the cabinet and do whatever she wants.
However, Purficott feels that this is not the truth and the end point, because if the other party really wants to do this, they can actually solve this problem through negotiation.
And limit her power? These people may have missed an important point, which is that Purficott's power comes from her army and her contribution to the surveillance of the north.
This is not the kind of absurd novel that dares to ask the general to hand over the power of a hundred thousand troops with a piece of paper. If someone really wants to do this, then Purficott wouldn't mind turning the Victor Empire into a real dictatorship. countries, and then tell each other what is the real truth.
And what is the final interpretation of imperial government affairs.
"Members of the National Assembly all know what is going on. They have even had a meeting with them before. Now we are only discussing how you want to deal with these people, Count Brandlis." Duke Rost looked at Purficott, looking forward to her answer.
However, Purficott stood up and let the mechanical maid behind her put on a piece of clothing for her: "I don't care, you can just do whatever you want. It doesn't matter to me. Meaning.”
Hearing Purficott’s words, the Duke of Gloucester was visibly relieved. He is really afraid that Purficott will take advantage of the situation and liquidate the entire Beloberg.
