Chapter 784: don't look too ugly

Those congressmen also came up to line up to prepare for the election. And a total of 400 members of parliament, so according to the plan, they will vote. And the 400 members of parliament are actually an even number, that is, an even number. Their 400 members of parliament are an even number, which is actually intentional. Generally speaking, it is difficult to meet exactly the same number of votes in the election process, and the exact same number of votes is very rare. Of course, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of the eventuality. If neither of the top two can get 50% in the election, a second election will be held for the top two. Or if both of them get 50% each, then the final vote will be decided by the incumbent emperor. However, in this place, the status of the emperor is similar to that of the vice president of the United States. Although they have the power to preside over the parliament, they do not actually have the power to vote directly. The final vote can only be finalized when there is an equal stalemate between the two sides, and there is no right to vote at ordinary times.

Soon, those congressmen voted one by one. And the first councilor No. 1 voted in front of Xiao Hongsheng, while councilor No. 2 voted in front of Shi Maozhou. And it seems that it's the same after negotiation. The odd number of members voted in front of Xiao Hongsheng, and the even number of members voted in front of Shi Maozhou. The tacit understanding between the two parties is simply amazing. If people of later generations look at this election, they will definitely curse that there is a shady scene, and the shady scene is big. There is absolutely a lot of shady here, so it goes without saying. But at least with the election process, we can make progress in the future! At least everyone has to hold elections, otherwise how can we talk about real democracy?

And these positions soon passed more than a hundred people, and more than a hundred people voted for Xiao Hongsheng in odd numbers and Shi Maozhou in even numbers. As for other things, the third party, the Conservative Party, they are professional escorts, and they don't even have a single vote in front of them, which makes Zhang Zhidong a little embarrassed.

"Master Zhang, this is too..." Zhang Zhidong's secretary said in embarrassment.

And Zhang Zhidong also had a weird expression on his face, although he knew that he must have come to run with him this time. Wang Guorui will not really give him the position of prime minister. No matter how conflicted the DPP and Huafu Dang are, they all started with Wang Guorui and are the disciples and grandchildren of that Ouyang Xuan, so they are consistent in defending the "fruits of victory". He may be able to accept that the other party has taken the position of prime minister. But they will never allow the Conservative Party to take it away. If it was snatched away by the Democratic Rehabilitation Party (Huafu Party), the meat would be rotten in the pot, so there is no fear of anything. But if it was snatched away by the Conservative Party, it would really lose all the "fruits of victory". How could it be regarded as the result of so many years of hard work? So they simply ignored those guys. So according to the previous discussion, no one will vote for them at all.

"Forget it, we are not their opponents anyway. Let's take a look next time, let's talk about it at that time! We only need to make our own voices. We just need to let the new emperor know our existence and let them It’s fine if we can’t completely ignore our interests. As for other things, it’s pretty good that we can achieve this result. Could it be that we can expect too much? So what we can count on is that Wang Guorui will focus on national stability, Don't try to make too many changes, so that we can achieve a stable transition." Zhang Zhidong said.

Voting is still going on. From the first vote to the last 300 votes, the odd-numbered members voted for Xiao Hongsheng, and the even-numbered members voted for Shi Maozhou. According to the result agreed by the two parties before, that is, among the 400 members of parliament, the Democratic Rehabilitation Party and the Huafu Party each have 200 votes. In the end, according to the process, the emperor will decide who will be the prime minister. But this is also for flattery, and this is considered flattery, and then it can maintain Wang Guorui's authority without violating the so-called election rules. Wang Guorui can also choose his favorite prime minister according to his own ideas.

So this election is nothing more than a one-off process that was conducted in accordance with a pre-negotiated process. Anyway, everyone already knows the result, so don't worry about it. However, for that Zhang Zhidong, it was a slap in the face!

"Master Zhang, you didn't even get a single vote!" The secretary said with a wry smile.

And Zhang Zhidong felt his face was hot, and he came to the election this time, isn't this just a show of face to Wang Guorui and the others? This time it was really embarrassing, because they didn't get a single vote, so they all felt very embarrassed. As a person who is interested in the election, as a party that participated in the election. In the end, the last vote was not obtained, which was really embarrassing. And a party that doesn't even get a single vote really has no meaning of existence.

If this process is followed this time, 400 votes were cast to Shi Maozhou and Xiao Hongsheng 200 votes each, but the Conservative Party headed by Zhang Zhidong did not get a single vote. world? At that time, everyone will doubt whether your party still exists. Not even a single vote, it really makes people laugh at it as a real treasure. After all, Zhang Zhidong has been an official for many years, and seeing this situation, he also felt his face burning.

"That's all, who told us not to beat them? Who told us not to beat them, we have no strength! If we had strength, why would we need to be humiliated here? Even, we don't use it for elections, just govern directly. Now that we can't beat others in strength, we will naturally have to bear the result of failure. After all, we are all defeated, all losers! This world will always be dominated by winners, so where do we losers have the status! Zhang Zhidong thought with a wry smile.

Since it failed, it must be prepared to be humiliated. Since ancient times, there have been a few losers who have not been humiliated, but for their own lives, their own interests, and even the interests of the classes behind them, they had to endure this humiliation, and then they were beaten in the face, and they were also beaten. When people spit on it, it is obvious that they are about to wake up from their mouths. If a loser can't even do it on his own, then you are waiting to be beheaded, and even your family will be hurt.

In this world, there are always winners. A loser may be called a tragic hero by later generations, but since the word tragic is added, it is not a good result. So they naturally had to be patient, even if Wang Guorui had slapped them in the face in this election, they still had to be patient.

When the election came to the last few votes, everyone still followed the plan, and the odd number voted for Xiao Hongsheng, and the even number voted for Shi Maozhou. After the 399th member just started voting, the 400th member is going to vote.

And when the No. 400 member was about to vote for Shi Maozhou, he was stopped by Wang Guorui with his eyes.

The congressman didn't know what was going on, but he saw Wang Guorui's eyes and he didn't dare to vote. He didn't know what Wang Guorui meant. But then, Wang Guorui looked at Zhang Zhidong, then pouted, telling him where he should vote. Only then did the member understand what Wang Guorui meant. He directly gave up voting for Shi Maozhou, and then went to Zhang Zhidong to vote. Soon, Zhang Zhidong also got the only vote.

"Now, the counting of the votes begins, Xiao Hongsheng, chairman of the Huaxia Renaissance Party, won 200 votes, just over half. Shi Maozhou, chairman of the National Renaissance Party, got 199 votes, and Zhang Zhidong, chairman of the Conservative Party, got one vote. According to the election rules, Xiao Hongsheng, chairman of the Huaxia Revival Party, got it, got it..." The host looked at Wang Guorui, obviously this was different from the previous process.

After receiving a nod from Wang Guorui, the host announced: "Xiao Hongsheng will be the first prime minister of the Yanhuang Empire!"

And although everyone felt a little surprised, Wang Guorui would express his meaning through this method and let Xiao Hongsheng be the first prime minister. It can be regarded as giving the Conservative Party a vote, at least it didn't prevent Zhang Zhidong from the Conservative Party from getting a single vote, and his face was swollen alive.

"Your Majesty~www.wuxiaspot.com~ are you going to choose Xiao Hongsheng as Prime Minister?" Quan Zhixian asked.

Wang Guorui nodded and said: "Yes! At present, we still need to focus on social reform and economic development, and consolidate the industrial foundation. Other cultures can be a little less important. So the economy is still relatively important, so I plan to make economic development more important. The well-known Xiao Hongsheng will be the first prime minister."

"Then why vote for those Conservative Party guys?" Jun Ji-hyun asked.

Wang Guorui said: "I think our eating appearance should not be too ugly! If the eating appearance is too ugly, what will Danshu Qingshi say about us in the future?"

If Wang Guorui doesn't vote for Zhang Zhidong, it means that Zhang Zhidong will be ashamed, and people outside will know that Wang Guorui and the others did it on purpose. Although everyone knew that this election was largely a black box operation, Wang Guorui didn't want everyone to feel that his eating was too ugly. Although you want to eat, you must be more civilized. It feels like that is really the case. After all, China is a country of etiquette, don't be too ugly when you eat! Since the past dynasties, the new court must show its good side, fair and generous side, and don't make it too ugly. (To be continued.)
