Lord of War

38. The Prudence of the Nobles

The story of Xiao En showing his power on the Evergreen Suspension Bridge was quickly spread throughout the entire capital through the vivid descriptions of the civilians who entered the capital. Almost in less than an hour, all the nobles in the entire king's capital, whether they are old-school nobles or emerging nobles, or even those who have just surrendered to Ryan and have confirmed that they can obtain or retain noble titles and identities, all They all looked at a nobleman in unison.

Dovigo family.

The Principality of Ryan was still a kingdom before the fourth King Ryan. At that time, there were two parliaments, the upper and the lower. Until the fourth King of Lane lost a major war, causing the Kingdom of Lane to become a vassal state of the Millennium Covenant Empire, the establishment of the House of Lords was abolished, leaving only one House of Commons. It's just that this is a shame for the Lane people. Therefore, although the House of Lords has been abolished, the House of Commons of Lane is actually a direct copy of the size and system of the House of Lords. The only thing that has changed is the name.

Lane House.

Regarding this behavior, the Millennium Covenant Empire naturally turned a blind eye and did not say anything.

In this way, the power and status of the House of Lords of Lane will be preserved, so the corresponding mechanism scale will be derived: for example, twelve one-vote seats, fourteen important seats and forty-one auditor seats.

It is not an easy task to obtain these seats. For example, twelve one-vote seats can only be obtained by twelve upper-ranking nobles; and fourteen important seats can only be obtained by upper-ranking nobles; as for the remaining Forty-one auditorium seats, at the very least, only those with the title of Earl or above can obtain it. Others are like Viscount and Baron. That is not even eligible to enter the House of Lords.

As a matter of fact, the voting on many important matters in the Lane House is usually controlled by the upper-ranking nobles.

Although usually. All proposals put forward by the Lane House will be voted on by nobles in fourteen important seats. They will use their voting rights to judge and decide whether the proposal is passed or rejected. If the number of votes for and against is the same, then The proposal will be temporarily frozen until another day. But if there is still a tie three times in a row, then this proposal will be submitted to the twelve high-ranking nobles for review and judgment. If the votes are still tied under such circumstances, the vote will be passed to the nobles of the 41 auditorium seats.

The reason why there are 41 is to prevent the situation of being equal again.

But since it is said that the voting on important affairs is controlled by the upper nobles. Then the situation here will naturally be slightly different and complicated: the normal voting rights of the proposal are in the hands of the nobles with 14 important seats, but this does not mean that the high-ranking nobles with one vote can only watch , they can participate in the voting of these proposals anytime and anywhere.

Once the nobles with one vote of seats intervene, the next vote will have nothing to do with the nobles of the fourteen important seats. All processes will enter a special stage: voting by eleven nobles with one vote. As long as the high-ranking noble who intervened in the proposal can get the support of the other six high-ranking nobles. Then this proposal will naturally be determined by the nobleman's previous intervention attitude, which is the same as the mechanism of the forty-one auditorium seats.

And the Dovigo family is one of the fourteen high-ranking nobles who hold important seats.

This is a family that used to rely on military exploits to become famous, but the political stance of the family itself was biased towards the Evans family two generations ago. But for some unknown reason,

After the Dovigo family was passed down to today, the family completely broke away from the faction of the Evans family, and instead got closer to the Finnstein family, one of the twelve upper nobles.

According to the information provided by Brod, the Dovigo family is the mainstay of the noble faction in Seine today.

And Sestin Dovigo. He is one of the five people who are known as the Earth Dragon Knights in the Ryan Kingdom. But what it actually looks like, all the nobles in the entire capital are very clear: the name of this local dragon knight is nothing more than a false title. Because no one has ever seen him fight even once on a ground dragon. In the Dovigo family's manor, the ground dragon is not so much a monster, it is more appropriate to say it is an ornamental animal.

But no matter how bad or unrealistic the reputation of this ground dragon knight is, as long as his surname is still the family name of Dovigo, then no one will dare to underestimate him. Similarly, many nobles in the royal capital are well aware that this young man is also one of the strongest candidates for the heir of the Dovigo family.

So, one can imagine.

The Changqing Suspension Bridge incident this time must have been caused by the young nobleman's eagerness to perform.

However, Sean did not believe that the current patriarch of the Dovigo family would not know what his son was planning. The reason why he didn't stop him was probably because he wanted to test Sean's reaction. Of course, there must be a nobleman's idea of ​​heir to the school. For the Dovigo family, perhaps this is a chance to kill two birds with one stone.

Unfortunately, they shot the wrong eagle.

Sean's counterattack was not only powerful, it could even be said to be a kind of resistance that was almost rude.

It is not at all like the femininity unique to nobles.

Regarding Xiao En's evaluation, the vast majority of nobles in the royal capital maintained a mentality of watching the show, and of course they would inevitably sneer at something like "Sure enough, he is a barbarian". Of course, it's more contempt for Sean's title of title, after all, the title of Baron doesn't even qualify him to enter the House of Lords. It’s just that they would be so sarcastic. Most of them are just low-ranking nobles. The real high-ranking nobles and those with relatively strong strength have known for a long time. This time, the name Sean Connery is destined to blind a group of people. Noble dog eyes.

It's just that everyone didn't expect that this blinding opportunity would come so soon.

Two hours after Sean entered the city, the carriage representing the highest greeting ceremony of the royal family stopped outside the hotel where Sean stayed, and then...

There is no more.

More than half of the minor nobles who are not qualified to join the noble faction in Senai have already begun to think about whether to make a familiar face in front of Xiao En. But for those who have had an offensive and defensive alliance agreement with Sean, this is an exciting thing. After all, as a member of their alliance, if the status they can obtain is higher, then it will naturally be better for them. more favorable.

Therefore, many deeds that were already prepared to target Xiao En were completely melted under the sunshine of the royal capital.

At least at this moment, no one dared to take the risk.

However, the roar from the Dovigo family still resounded on the Seventh Avenue of the Kingdom.

Because Sean's gift has already been delivered.

That is……

The right hand of the child who was cut by Viniya's sword in the morning.

However, this right hand was completely frozen into a crystal by Snow Fanio's magical spell of freezing. In Sean's words, it means that the life force on the right hand is just frozen, not lost at all. If the priests of the Church of Life perform magic, it can still be taken back, and it can be guaranteed to be intact. But in fact, everyone knew that it was a very dangerous move to use divine magic to fight divine magic. At the very least, one had to find a priest of the Church of Life whose divine power was comparable to that of Sefanio to perform it.

Leaving aside whether such a priest would be willing to take action, the price of this ceremony alone is enough to make the Dovigo family feel heartbroken.

After those members of the aristocratic faction in Senegal found out the roar of the Dovigo family, the real big names in a series of aristocratic factions in Senegal, including Finnstein, Aite, and Sebarox, all chose to remain silent. . Because they would never have imagined that Sean's counterattack at the beginning would be so bloody and brutal, which can almost be said to be second only to revenge by blood relatives.

In other words, if they still want to continue to deal with Sean, they must pay the price of entering blood relative revenge.

And this kind of price is usually a situation of immortality.

Unless they are sure that Sean will not be able to leave the capital alive.

But seeing that the royal family actually sent out the highest greeting ceremony to welcome Xiao En into the palace today, how could these nobles who have lived in Ryan's political circle for so many years not understand what His Majesty meant? Whoever seeks to trouble Sean at such a sensitive time is tantamount to provoking the royal family, and who would dare to do so?

More importantly, they were really not sure that Xiao En would not be able to leave the capital.

And if any action against Sean goes bankrupt, then be prepared to bleed heavily. This barbarian, who was ignored by them, used the Dovigo family as a stepping stone when he first came to the capital, so that everyone in the capital could see how intense and bloody his revenge was. And this kind of price is usually a situation of immortality.
