Chapter 103: Presidential election

But in the end, Charlie's mother, Mrs. Melissa, didn't have any contact with him.

Time passed quickly, and April 12, 1752, was the date of a new round of elections for the leaders of the National Assembly.

Charlie followed Debra's motorcade from the aristocratic quarter to the Sona Palace in the heart of the city. This fortress-style palace, once a symbol of kingship, has become the permanent seat of the National Assembly.

When passing by the former parliament building, the ruins here were surrounded by circles. Under the command of the supervisor, many workers worked together to clear the ruins and the broken stones scattered around. They accepted the order of the National Assembly and prepared to work here. A new National Assembly will be built on the site of the ruins.

Just after passing through the ruins, Charlie accidentally caught a glimpse of a few workers transporting out the gravel covered with solidified black blood clots, and there were still some bits of minced meat on the pools of black blood clots. Fortunately, it was not a hot summer. Otherwise, the smashed corpses will definitely emit a stench.

Gunilla, who was sitting in the same carriage with Charlie, noticed that Charlie was looking out the window, his eyes swept across the ruins, and he said casually: "The explosion that happened here really helped us a lot, if it weren't for this explosion, The National Assembly can't surrender so soon, you say, Charlie?"

"Yeah." Charlie nodded. The mastermind behind the explosion had already revealed everything, so he also knew the whole story of the explosion.

"Do you know who planned this explosion?" Gunilla continued to ask.

Charlie glanced at him with just the right amount of dazedness on his face: "You also know that I was still in the south at the time, how could I possibly know who was behind the explosion?"

Seeing that Charlie didn't admit it, Gunilla just smiled and didn't continue talking. In fact, he was just suspicious of Charlie. As far as he knew, no one in the noble faction planned the explosion, so apart from Charlie's Fourth Army There are no other suspects - it can't be the people in the National Assembly who planned the explosion themselves?

Charlie: You may not believe it, but this is really a play directed and performed by the National Assembly.

He had to doubt himself in Gu Nila's heart, but what could he do? He could only helplessly smile bitterly, and slowly drove into the Sona Palace with the carriage.

When he got off the carriage, many members of the palace wearing high-quality robes had already entered the palace. He silently observed it. Since the day he entered the city, the National Assembly has added new members every day. Get together with the original old faces in twos and threes, and you can judge the faction they joined from the small group they are in.

Charlie and Gunilla slowly walked half a step behind Debra. He watched those nobles take the initiative to say hello to Debra with a blank face. After saying hello, the eyes of the nobles would stay on for a short time. On Charlie, those eyes contained various emotions, dissatisfaction, friendliness, disdain, insensitivity, etc.

They still don't know that Charlie is going to run for president. According to the constitution of the Rumont Republic, the presidential candidate will register with the presiding officer the night before the general election, and will take turns in the next day's election meeting to address all members of parliament, After all the candidates have come to power, members will be voted on by registered ballots.

He was looking forward to what the aristocrats would look like when they saw him running for president.

Soon, Debra was surrounded by a group of nobles. Although they were still dissatisfied with Charlie, for the sake of the Cross family, they still got along with Charlie politely. Peace of mind - Charlie couldn't help but sigh again, it's hard for people who won't be fooled to survive in the political arena.

Everyone quickly entered the council hall of the Sona Palace, and they were divided into three main camps based on the faction they belonged to. Looking at the entire council hall, it was the noble faction that had the largest number of people, followed by the Santos party, and the last one. bourgeoisie.

In addition to these three main camps, there are also some scattered neutral members, who have always followed the trend and rarely expressed their own opinions.

After all the deputies arrived, the guards standing at the door closed the door together, isolating the chamber from the outside world. Then, Sandy, who had previously given up the election, served as the presiding officer of the election, and the secretary in charge of counting the votes. The officials and others walked to the stage together.

Sandy, who was standing on the stage, looked solemn and said:

"Citizens, today will begin the third presidential election of the Republic of Rumont, and I, Leonard Sandy, will be in charge of the process of presiding over the election process. According to the Constitution of the Republic of Rumont in 1750, candidates for presidential candidates must have the Citizenship and Member of the National Assembly, at least 20 years old."

"The list of presidential candidates is now announced: Najas Nielsen, Gunila Clos..."

One name after another jumped out of Sandy's mouth and passed into the ears of everyone in the arena. When he read Charlie's name, Debra and Gunira looked shocked and turned to look at the man sitting beside them. Charlie, looking at the surrounding aristocratic congressmen, they all looked at Charlie in amazement.

"Charlie, when did you sign up?"

Debra's surprise at first turned into dissatisfaction, and he stared at Charlie and asked in a hoarse voice.

As the head of the family, he didn't hear anything about such a big thing. He originally thought that Charlie wanted to fight for a minister or other official, but he quietly reported a presidential candidate?

This gave Debra, who had a strong desire to control, a strong sense of crisis in his heart.

Gunilla also looked at Charlie, waiting for Charlie's answer with the councillors sitting around.

Facing Debra's questioning~www.readwn.com~Charlie still maintained a calm expression, he replied calmly: "I have been preparing to run since I returned to Ankerton."

"Grandpa, instead of questioning me here now, it's better to wait until the election is over. I will answer all your questions then, what do you think?"

After Charlie's reminder, Debra realized that he was still in the parliament, and there were other nobles listening, so he nodded with an ugly face, and then continued to look at the stage. The surrounding members saw that they did not continue to talk. , I couldn't help but feel anxious for a while, but I could only helplessly close my ears.

After the names of all the candidates were read, the congressmen noticed that there was no presidential candidate in the entire Santos party, and they started talking, and the chamber was suddenly drowned out by various voices.

The aristocrats are also wondering about this mysterious operation of the Santos party, but they soon stopped paying attention to it, and only thought that the Santos party did not dare to compete with them after the defeat of the Santos party-don't you see even their former president Sandy? Have you publicly stated that you have given up the campaign and have instead become a host?
