Chapter 842 Imperial Parliament(1/2)
The winter in Northrell is very cold, and it is mostly snowy.
But today, it is an extremely rare clear weather. There is no cloud in the sky, and the blue sky is like a gem. The rising sun shines on the earth, and the ice and snow that fell last night reflect light, as if it has wrapped a layer of silver on the entire city, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Millions of residents have already risen and found that the number of patrols and guards on the streets has increased several times. At all traffic nodes and important institutions of every empire, there are extraordinary soldiers sent by the Imperial Legion to stand guard, and the alert in the whole city has been raised to the highest level.
There was a serious atmosphere among people.
Today is the Imperial Parliament vote every decade to elect the new consul.
Some older people have seen several elections, but they don’t know what happened. None of them are as solemn as today. When they meet, they nodded and greeted each other, and at most they whispered a few words.
Nine o'clock in the morning.
The loud magic bell sounded from the Castle of Fubeidon, spreading throughout Northrier. People nearby looked up and looked in the direction of the Imperial Parliament, only seeing the light of the statue of the magic goddess. The walls blocked the view, and they could not see the "Temple of Truth" where the Imperial Parliament was located.
"here we go."
Many people think silently in their hearts and look at the people around them.
Renn set out from Marlenego Manor. He did not use teleportation today, but took a low-key black car. A team of extreme warriors guarded around. In the awe of countless people on the road, the car arrived at the Castle of Fubaiden.
This huge castle was heavily guarded, and all 20,000 Rick Guards were dispatched, one post at five steps and one whistle at ten steps. The commander of the Imperial Guards, Hesctor, personally led his men to guard the city gate.
There are already many imperial councils in the square in front of the castle.
When Rennes' convoy arrived, everyone's eyes gathered, whether it was the Rick Guard or the Imperial Councilor, and became the focus of the audience.
The car stopped and Renn pushed open the door and got off from the back.
His clothes today are no different from usual. He has a set of mitral light armor that is simple and elegant, but cannot cover up his tall and strong body. He is hung with a legendary soul-devouring blade hanging around his waist. As a ritual sword, a blood-colored cloak hanging from his ankles behind him, not showing the domineering aura of a peak strongman.
Rennes walked around the door on the other side of the car and opened the door very gentlemanly.
Viola gently helped Renne's hand get out of the car.
She got up early and dressed up carefully, put on light makeup on her face, put on a simple long dress specially customized for formal occasions, and wore a "Crown of Green Radish" representing the identity of the Pope on her head. The exquisite green garland set off her fascinating face, making her look even more beautiful, making many men unable to look away.
After getting off the bus, the two walked side by side.
Heskot came forward with a kind smile on his face and greeted warmly: "I have met Speaker Rennes and Viola."
"Commander Heskott." Ren nodded slightly.
He glanced at the commander of the Rick Guard. The Soul Eye accurately grasped the other party's thoughts. On the surface, he seemed close, but in fact he was a little nervous inside and had some pleasing.
The commander of the Imperial Guard is usually the consul of the consul.
Although this position was directly appointed by the Supreme Parliament and shoulders the responsibility of protecting the consul, it actually implies the task of monitoring the consul, but if the consul firmly wants to replace the person, the Supreme Parliament will also listen to opinions.
The consul cannot replace his own people, but he can remove the commander of the Imperial Guard.
Moreover, Heskott was suspected of dereliction of duty in the death of the former consul Gneus, and has not yet been liquidated.
Even if Renne failed to run for the consul, Heskott would leave in shame with just one sentence.
Heskott also knew this situation well.
Seeing that Renne's face was very calm and he did not look at his greetings differently, he suddenly became even more nervous.
In fact, Rennes is really not satisfied with him.
But there is no more suitable candidate at the moment, and Heskot has not yet been replaced, but it may be in the future.
Viola also knew that Heskot's position was unstable, but out of respect for the saint-level powerful people, she still smiled slightly and responded: "Thank you for your hard work, Commander."
"Not hard, no hard work."
Heskot waved his hands repeatedly, just glanced at Viola and moved his eyes away, not daring to look more, so as not to cause Renne to misunderstand.
Viola sighed in her heart.
This was the first time she realized that a saint-level powerful man was so humble in front of him, but she also knew that Heskot really respected not himself, but Renn.
At this time, the nearby Imperial Councilors came forward to greet him.
"Speaker Rennes."
"I've met Lord Earl."
"His Excellency Renne."
Various names sounded from the members of the parliamentary, but the same thing was that their faces were filled with smiles. Some members of the parliamentary were even too enthusiastic and looked a little flattering. While greeting him enthusiastically, they also praised Viola's beauty.
Viola is an Imperial Parliament and has participated in the Imperial Parliament many times.
She is not unfamiliar with these congressmen. Most of them can name their names and know their identity and background. Each of them is a famous figure in the empire.
However, she had never seen the members of the parliament before today, and they were not so duty even in front of the lofty Holy Soul Wizard.
Because there are too many people, Rennes cannot respond one by one.
He could only nod his head slightly or call out the list of the Imperial MPs to show his respect. Despite this, the MPs whose names were called seemed to have won the prize, with a happy smile on their faces and a warmer smile back at Renne.
There are more members of the parliamentary group in the distance, keeping their reserve and not surrounding them.
Viola could see that it was not that they didn't want to greet Rennes, but that they were too far away or were a step too late and didn't have time to grab a good position.
At this moment, the half-elf completely realized Rennes' status.
Rennes' influence and Rennes' attraction to those in power are stronger in the eyes of the Imperial Councilors than any beauty, and beauty is not worth mentioning on such occasions.
"My dear MPs, it's time for us to go in," said Ren.
Immediately, a member of the parliament echoed loudly: "Yes, Speaker Renne is right. You can't delay the voting matters. Let's go forward."
"Let Speaker Renne go first." Someone suggested.
"That's right." The proposal was immediately agreed, "Speaker Rennes should be asked to leave first. My colleagues, please give it up."
Ren had no intention of this, but the imperial congressmen in front had already taken the initiative to make way.
He was amused and laughed.
Unexpectedly, when I traveled to another world, I actually enjoyed the treatment of "let the leader go first".
It was hard to refuse at this time, so Rennes could only express his gratitude and took Viola through the city gate to enter the Castle of Fuberden. A group of imperial MPs followed behind, as if they were surrounded by two people, as if they were not coming to the Temple of Truth to vote, but to inspect.
Viola was a little uncomfortable by this scene.
Rennes was calm.
He had seen early on that the humans in the Alan Ershi world had extraordinary power, but they were no different from the human society in their previous lives. Whether they were ordinary people or extraordinary people whose power belonged to themselves, there were always many people who were attracted by the incest and flattering.
As long as you have stronger strength and have absolute advantages, you can treat the Imperial parliamentarians as ordinary people, divide, suppress or win over them, and use various means without too much scruples.
Walk to the middle of the square and turn right, and come to the Temple of Truth.
Rennes and Viola stopped in front of the statue of the Magic Goddess, and according to the convention, prayed to Him silently three times before climbing the steps in front of the temple.
Step by step, enter the temple hall.
The atmosphere of the Imperial Council is solemn, with hundreds of seats already sitting in their seats, and most of the Imperial Councilors sit quietly in their seats or whispering to the people around them.
Suddenly, a large number of footsteps came from outside the gate of the chamber. The members of the council turned around and saw Rennes.
Crazy...
Many imperial congressmen subconsciously stood up in a large area.
Some MPs didn't want to get up at first, but when they saw others standing up, they were too conspicuous when they were still sitting. They were afraid that Renn would feel that they didn't respect him, so they could only stand up.
The Imperial Council Room strictly prohibited noise. The members of the parliament watched Rennes come in through the gate, pass through the middle, and walk down step by step to the front row of the rostrum.
Instead of sitting down immediately, he turned around and waved to the MPs.
"You don't have to be too polite, please sit down."
Renne's voice was not loud, his tone was gentle, and it reached the ears of every member of the chamber, making them feel very friendly.
The Imperial parliamentarians sat down again.
Renn sat down herself, Viola was in the rows behind him. She could not turn her head, but she could also notice that almost everyone was staring at Renn's back, and some low-pitched comments sounded from time to time, which was also related to Renn.
I don't know how many times Viola sighed.
Seven years ago, the scene when I first met Rennes was as if it was right in front of me. At that time, he was just an ordinary person who was not as young as 20 years old, not even an extraordinary person. Apart from having a handsome appearance and superb talent, no one would take him seriously.
Seven years later, Rennes is only one step away from standing at the peak of imperial power.
With such a huge change in just seven years, looking at Alan Ershi's history, Viola can't find an example of how fast Rennes rises.
He has surpassed those heroes in epics.
He will create more miracles in the future!
Viola's heart was ups and downs. She had always felt as unreal as she was dreaming these days. Until now, she could finally be sure of one thing, that is, she must hold on to Renne firmly and must not let her leave her side.
Thinking of this, the half-elf looked at Renne's back and became obsessed.
The Imperial Congressmen kept entering the hall, sitting in their own position, and then looked at Rennes sitting in the front like Viola.
After a moment, the Imperial Hall was almost full.
when!
