I will be crowned king

Chapter 1149 The supreme interests of the kingdom

This sentence was like a pause, and the scene was completely silent for an instant; representatives from various provinces were either shocked, or gasped, looking in disbelief at this person who was not a stranger, but definitely not a familiar person. .

The aristocratic representatives in the front row were obviously furious, especially Viscount Bogner, who looked at this young officer whom he once admired very much like a madman. He couldn't believe how the other party dared to say such rebellious words.

No matter how arrogant he was in the past, at least he had to display the banner of "loyal minister of the kingdom" on the surface, but now he is so unabashed... Is he planning to make an enemy of the entire army again?

"Lieutenant General Anson Bach, I advise you to be more careful with your words." Ludwig stepped forward and said coldly, his body just blocking the malicious royal guard next to him:

"Such arrogant words may be considered as contempt for His Majesty."

He is almost going crazy now. He is trying his best to suppress the commotion, hoping that the parliament can at least proceed smoothly. Why is this guy so ignorant and insisting on making things bigger?

"On the contrary, I think this is His Majesty's original intention." Anson responded unceremoniously, but his eyes turned to the surrounding representatives:

"The representatives traveled thousands of miles from all sides of the kingdom to arrive at the royal city and responded to His Majesty's call to form the National Assembly in order to defend the interests of the Kingdom, not to harm it. At this time, His Majesty summoned the army to the scene, so it should also be a move against the National Assembly. Express your approval and organize the army to protect it to prevent some scoundrels from taking the opportunity to destroy it."

"Who do you think is Xiaoxiao's disciple?!"

"Whoever sabotages the parliamentary process at this time and attempts to interfere and manipulate the parliament is a scoundrel!" Anson looked at the figure standing up on the noble representative seat and said without any courtesy at all:

"Anyone who tries to take advantage of His Majesty's good intentions and interprets the rest as His Majesty's intention to suppress and intimidate the National Assembly so that the representatives cannot speak freely is Clovis's enemy!"

The young nobleman in fine clothes widened his eyes. Just as he was about to refute, Viscount Bognar pulled him back to his seat and covered his mouth tightly.

Too tender...really too tender...not to mention causing damage at this level, it is simply assisting Anson Bach...

"boom--!"

Deafening gunshots rang out, and the royal guards holding smoking revolvers ignored the glaring Ludwig and stared coldly at Anson in the stands:

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, you are speculating on the Holy Will. Doing so is very dangerous."

"Oh, guessing the holy will?"

Anson smiled disdainfully: "Since you think I am speculating on the holy will, do you dare to immediately send someone to the Osteria Palace to ask His Majesty Nicholas I if his thoughts are consistent with what I said?"

The Wang family guard's face was tense, and he was stunned.

Just kidding, how dare he.

This lieutenant general kicked the ball back to the royal family... If it is said that it is, then it will have to watch the army and the National Assembly "unite", and if it is not...

No one can afford to say otherwise.

At this moment, even if some people were shocked and panicked just now because of the appearance of the army, most of them have come to their senses now: it is obvious that His Majesty the King suddenly mobilized the army to surround the parliament site for the purpose of deterrence. Otherwise, if he really wanted to support it, why not How about coming in person?

This made many representatives nervous, but many people also realized the opportunities contained in it...and began to unanimously turn their attention to Anson, who was attracting much attention.

"The National Assembly is the representative of the people of Clovis. It implements the indisputable power granted by His Majesty in the name of all the people of Clovis. What is wrong with this?" Anson narrowed his eyes slightly and asked sternly:

"Also, have you forgotten my identity - as a member of the Royal Guards, what qualifications do you have to question me here as the Chief of the Royal Guards? Carl Bain!"

"arrive!"

With a clear and resounding response, the Chief of Staff, who had put on a brand-new school officer uniform—of course now the acting commander—Carl Bain appeared at the edge of the venue.

The soldiers who surrounded the scene also put down their rifles, beat their chests with their right hands, and saluted in the direction of the stands.

"It's really an unabashed show of force..." Among the crowd, Christian Bach whispered to himself, his eyes full of unabashed admiration: "No one among the representatives who saw this scene doubted this. Who does the command of the legion belong to?"

The scene was completely silent. The royal guards who had just tried to get past Ludwig and directly "take control of the situation" finally realized that the situation seemed...

…It wasn’t particularly smooth.

He tried to take a half step back, but found that Ludwig was also staring at him, with "I can help you" in his "full of goodwill" eyes.

Anson on the stage still sneered, and he silently put his hands behind his back: "Colonel Carl Bain."

"exist!"

"Tell me, in the army, subordinates contradict their superiors, and soldiers question the authority of their superiors. What is the crime?"

"Confronting your superiors, speaking rudely, you should receive corporal punishment; and questioning the authority of your superiors..." Karl suddenly showed a flashing smile:

"shoot to death on the spot...randomly!"

The corners of Ludwig's mouth on the stage twitched crazily.

"The royal bodyguard is the face of the royal family and His Majesty, and it is also an important barrier to protect His Majesty." Anson chuckled: "Don't worry, for your Majesty's sake, as the chief of the Royal Bodyguard, I will not arrest you. , shot to death randomly."

"But from now on, if any of the royal guards present dare to speak out or try to prevent the normal operation of the parliament, please don't blame me and clean the dust on the fence for His Majesty."

Click——

After the understated words fell, the Storm Legion soldiers present put their rifles on their shoulders; pulled the bolt, and the sound of the gunshot was clearly heard in the ears of every representative.

The faces of the Wang family guards were extremely ugly.

But he also knew very well that the entire National Assembly was now completely under the control of the lieutenant general in front of him. If he tried to do anything again, the royal family might not be able to protect him for the purpose of quelling the riot.

After all, the person talking about the Osteria royal family now is not the king, but the woman from the Herred family...

Ludwig on the stage was still staring at that figure. He really didn't understand what this guy's plan was for deliberately running out to cause trouble.

"His Majesty has entrusted the power to manage the country to the National Assembly and sent a special army to protect it. What does this mean? It shows that the future of the entire Clovis is firmly in the hands of the National Assembly."

Seeing that the other party stopped speaking, Anson took a deep breath and looked at the representatives in the stands again: "In this case, I think everyone should think carefully about what we should do?"

“Should we immediately start voting endlessly, voting for or against something we don’t even know what it is based on information that we couldn’t understand or understand at all, or should we do something truly meaningful and valuable?”

"Let the National Assembly risk becoming someone else's puppet again, or should we stick to the final bottom line and never waver, raising our own flag for the benefit of the kingdom?"

"Delegates, the power is already yours, but obtaining the power and being able to use the power are two completely different things; you control the fate of tens of millions of people in the Kingdom of Clovis, and you are sitting here in response to their calls. In the square of Lake Park; please think carefully, why are you here?"

Anson suddenly punched his right hand on his chest and raised his fist fiercely: "Citizens of Clovis City, they have used their own struggle and hard work to gain equality. This is what they want, what about you?!"

"You, who came to this city with the hopes of the people of Clovis on your back, what do you want?"

There was dead silence in the stands, but everyone's eyes became obviously eager and excited.

"I am a representative from the central province, and I am here for the thousands of poor tenant farmers and domestic workers in the countryside."

Christian in the crowd suddenly raised his hand and said loudly to the eyes he was looking at: "The people there work hard, but they suffer from the rugged roads and cannot sell the best wheat and vegetables at a good price; fresh fruits and vegetables come from From the countryside to the city, the price can be dozens or hundreds of times higher!"

“We hope that the people of Clovis City can get high-quality and low-priced flour and fresh vegetables, and we also hope that the tenant farmers and domestic workers in the central province can earn more money instead of spending all their expenses on travel expenses. Wasted." Christian shouted: "And to do this, we must build more roads and even railways to the countryside!"

"Yes, this is our demand!"

"Only by building more roads can the Kingdom of Clovis become richer!"

Several representatives from the central and provincial governments around him immediately began to respond with excitement, and their expressions of excitement were beyond words; they were like a pebble falling on the surface of a calm sea.

"I am the representative of Beigang. Our demand is to establish a common union for sailors and sea traders!"

Almost at the same time, William Cecil also raised his right hand: "Sailors and sea traders bear the important task of transporting overseas cheap raw materials, textiles and metal products to Clovis for export, earning more wealth for the kingdom, but they We are still unable to obtain basic benefits and accident insurance, and this situation must be changed!”

"For the long-term interests of the kingdom, and more importantly, to change the situation of sailors and sea traders, only the National Assembly can lend a helping hand to them so that they can work even more desperately for the thousands of people in the Kingdom of Clovis and conquer the never-ending land. The rough sea!”

There was an immediate roar of approval in the stands, and many people even clapped excitedly.

Ludwig, who frowned and gritted his teeth, looked coldly at the excited representatives.

It's out of control, the situation is completely out of control.

He originally hoped that he could control the overall situation, at least control the situation within the scope of his control; but Anne Herred, the smart queen mother, actually planned to threaten with force, and even sent the Storm Legion to suppress the National Assembly. .

She hoped to use this method to put Anson Bach in a dilemma, but in the end, she directly handed over the initiative to the other party; as a result, this guy who always talks about "perfect plans" not only failed to stabilize the situation, but made the situation even more chaotic.

What on earth does he want to do... If he continues like this, neither he nor himself will be able to suppress this National Assembly that is completely out of control.

Ludwig was confused. He really couldn't understand. If he couldn't completely control the entire National Assembly, what benefits could Anson Bach and his "dear" sister gain by spending so much effort?

And just when he hesitated, the familiar voice sounded again.

"Everyone -" Anson suddenly raised his hands and looked at everyone present: "Since you have clearly understood the purpose of your coming here and the mission you bear, you should follow the rules of the National Assembly and follow the number of people. vote."

"Protest! Protest! Protest!"

Before the words were spoken, the noble representatives sitting in the front row could no longer remain silent; if they really wanted to vote based on the number of people, based on the current comparison of the number of representatives on both sides, they might not be able to pass anything.

Originally, the "Royal City Riches" headed by Bogner planned to win over the nobles in the local factions and split the entire National Assembly into two into the "House of Nobles" and the "House of Commoners" to compete with each other.

But the plan could not keep up with the changes. The local nobles would rather side with the ordinary representatives than continue to curry favor with the wealthy families of Clovis City. The result was that the ratio between the two sides was unprecedentedly desperate.

But at this moment, their voices are destined to be heard by no one; thousands of representatives are already immersed in the fantasy of a better future, listening intently to the words of the Chief of the Royal Guards speech.

Things have developed so far that even a fool can see that the royal family does not support the National Assembly at all, and the "appointed" Speaker Ludwig Franz cannot control the situation at all.

The only one who truly supports them and can control the situation is the less famous lieutenant general in front of them, but he is also a representative!

"Everyone of you is working hard for the future of the kingdom, and everyone hopes that the interests of the kingdom can be protected; in this case, we should follow what the Speaker said before finalizing all proposals. A charter.”

Anson said solemnly: "How can we protect the fundamental interests of the kingdom? How can we ensure that everything we do can benefit all people? How can we ensure that the power of the National Assembly is not affected or shaken... We must formulate a plan Such a charter, and then compile all the charters into an unshakable law that belongs to the National Assembly and all the people of Clovis!"

"Everyone, the most important thing for us now is to formulate such a constitution that safeguards the supreme interests of the kingdom!"
