Chapter 985 Accusation and how to deal with it
Abijar said seriously: "I mentioned to him the [-] quintal parity food order signed with the Kingdom of Grande, yes, it is the batch from South Ilson Island, oh, yes, the Prime Minister will definitely ask You, you know how to answer about the riots in South Ilson, don't you?"
"Of course, such a riot did not exist, and nothing happened on South Ilson Island. Don't worry, everything is under our control." Iffy laughed.
"It would be great if it is true. Uh, what's the situation over there? How could it be so troublesome that even the 'Moon Weekly' knows?! What the hell is the Lu Jun Department doing?!"
Yi Fei smiled contemptuously when she heard the words: "What else can those fat pigs do? They go to work for eight hours, read 'Hot Girls' magazine for six hours, eat and rest for one hour, and spend the last hour racking their brains to figure out what to do. The cabinet needs funds! Hmph, a bunch of idiots, a small riot can cause such a big mess, fortunately, not all the incompetent people in the porpoise circle, there is still such a good hand."
"Oh?" Abijar, who knew the other party's picky personality, became curious and asked, "It's not easy to get your praise. Can you tell me the details of that outstanding hero?"
"Fan, Linden Fan. An excellent grassroots commander, good at training troops, good at commanding, and able to fight tough battles and win battles. He suppressed the rebellion that spread to the whole island. At the same time, he also understands the way of being an official. In the future, Mr. Lu's Department will definitely have its place."
"Well, it's really good. To be honest, I'm fed up with those stupid bastards in Mr. Lu's department who only ask for money but don't do anything. Shall I tell the Prime Minister to get him into the cabinet as soon as possible? This way we can't save Take it easy." Abijail suggested.
"I'm afraid it won't work. He is currently stationed in South Ilson to collect food. Although the rebellion has been extinguished, it is like a fire that has been doused by water. If you don't pay attention, sparks will still jump when the wind blows." Come out, so the matter can be brought up again."
Abijar was a little puzzled: "What? He handles it? Shouldn't the local commander-in-chief do this?"
"Dead," Iffy shrugged. "Not long after the riot happened, that idiot lost a battle. Not only did he lose half of the king's equipment, he even lost his own life. If it wasn't for Linden Fan Resigned in danger, we have a headache now."
"Oh, is that so?" Abigail felt a little uneasy in his heart, but the military affairs were too unfamiliar for a double bachelor of economics and law, so he could only dispel his uneasiness in the end.
"Iffy, there is another situation. You should pay attention. I'm not sure if the prime minister knows, but you have to be ready to answer."
"Okay, you say."
"It's also about the Kingdom of Grande, do you know? According to the report of the Junqing Office, I can basically confirm that the northern royal faction headed by King Esther VI intends to launch a campaign to cleanse the southern local faction." civil war."
"So that's the case. When they received the food order of [-] quintals, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs thought that they wanted to prepare for a war. But I didn't expect it to be a civil war between the North and the South. So, what should I pay attention to? Director General, wars in other countries, especially civil wars, are good news for our country, right?"
"It is true under normal circumstances, but what needs to be noted is the reason why this happened." Abijar spread his hands, "The reason is that the king used treason to execute a large number of local officials and a few The royal family sent officials who were not very obedient, and through confiscation, they obtained more than 500 million Jintar."
"500 million?" Yi Fei thought for a while, "Isn't that much?"
"Ife, the kingdom's annual income is only 50. In short, that king has made up his mind to be a tyrant. In the past two months, the trade has surged, and the sales and price of the steel industry have increased by [-]%. The financial statements should be pretty good."
"50? The colleagues in this kingdom are too crazy." Iffy shook her head, "Well, but what does this matter have to do with us?"
"This is not a good signal. It has only been 60 years since the Principality became a constitutional monarchy. Although we have been fighting against the royal family and the original aristocratic forces over the years, we have indeed achieved great success. But it is inevitable that there are some people who are not grateful The evil nobles are plotting secretly behind the scenes, and I worry that this will become an opportunity for the noble forces and even the royal family to make a comeback."
Iffy didn't take it seriously, and said with a relaxed tone, "Why? You are too worried about state affairs. Since 60 years ago, when the Royal Fleet was destroyed and William III's power was shaken, we successfully persuaded him to send After the delegation of power to the cabinet, except for the farce-like coup 20 years ago, the political situation has been very stable. Now the royal family members, except for the fourth princess Regina who married Esther VI in the early years, are all kept in captivity. Various fiefdoms. As for other noble forces? Those guys have already become existences similar to mud legs, and some are not as good as mud legs. Just them, can they still make waves?"
Seeing that the other party did not listen to the persuasion, Abijar could only give up: "It is always right to be careful. In short, if the prime minister didn't bring up this matter, then don't mention it. If he asks about it, he is asking him to , strongly condemned this unjust war, told the ambassador of the Kingdom that this move is very undemocratic, and said that we will not intervene in the war in any way, understand?"
"Understood, please rest assured~"
Secretary Cypher entered the office and said to the Prime Minister: "Your Excellency, the Foreign Secretary is here. Would you like to see him?"
"Oh, let him in!" Edith said happily.
Soon, a handsome blond man in his thirties walked into the office, and he said, "Sorry to bother you, Prime Minister, I didn't make an appointment in advance."
"Where is it, Riley. Come sit down and talk." Edith smiled and beckoned the other party to sit down.
Riley Morally, the new foreign secretary who has just taken office for a few months, is the only young person in the cabinet whose age is generally over 45 years old.Prime Minister Edith appreciates his talent and has been looking for an opportunity to introduce him to his daughter Anna.
The young foreign minister sat down at the prime minister's table, hesitant to speak several times, but in the end, he sighed again.
Seeing this, Edith asked, "What's the matter, Riley, with a troubled look on his face, are you having difficulties at work? You just took office, and it's normal to feel miserable, and the situation will get better when you get used to it." of."
Riley put away his sad face, and complained helplessly: "No, sir, I'm not miserable at all, really. Since I entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I haven't done any real political affairs. I just sign documents every day, and the whole department I'm the most idle! They have done everything, please don't let me participate in anything, saying that 'a minister should have a son of a minister'. Even in the discussion, they leave me alone and don't let me interfere at all!"
"It sounds similar to mine here, oh, to be exact, the whole cabinet is like this." Edith laughed.
The Minister of Foreign Affairs shook his head and said, "However, Your Excellency, I applied to be transferred to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in order to truly serve the country and the people! Instead of sitting in an office and wasting the tax money of citizens reading newspapers! I thought the Minister of Foreign Affairs was very busy. , it turns out that the facts are completely different from mine. Your Excellency, I would like to submit my resignation."
"Oh, no! Riley, you can't submit your resignation letter, you've only been in office for more than six months." Edith was a little flustered, and hurriedly persuaded: "The Principality cannot change two foreign ministers within a year, this is not in compliance with the regulations. What's more, the contract with the Kingdom of Grande will be signed soon, and at this moment, you can't leave."
Hearing this news, the Foreign Minister became angry. He held back his anger and complained to the Prime Minister: "Your Excellency, speaking of the Kingdom of Grande, they asked us for help more than two months ago, and now! They have all retreated, and our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not taken any action! Do you know these things?"
"Yes, I read the news from the 'Moon Weekly'. In addition, Abijar was here just now, and he explained it to me." Edit pointed to the newspaper on the table.
"Well, sir, are you satisfied with the result? Don't you think there is a problem with this matter?"
Edith responded seriously: "Well, at first I was as angry as you, at you, and at the entire Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Sorry, Riley, I didn't know the truth at the time, so there was a misunderstanding, and later I understand that your foreign ministry is indeed in trouble. Well, as the foreign secretary, you should understand this better."
"Your Excellency Prime Minister!" Riley covered his forehead and stated with a hint of embarrassment: "Your Excellency, when I first received Ambassador Grande's request for help, I held a meeting and asked them to come up with practical strategies. After discussion, their suggestion was: Due to the lack of information, no formal action on the matter will be taken for the time being, and all actions will be taken after the situation is understood."
"Yeah, well done, that's all right, Riley?"
"Yes, I also agreed, and entrusted Junqing Ten to investigate. But after half a month! I have no news at all! I urged Director Yifei to give me an answer as soon as possible. This is another ten Well, the situation at this time has developed into the fact that the kingdom has suffered a defeat, losing the cities of Doport and Simika, especially Doport, the only open sea port in the north of the kingdom is under our disregard. lost."
"It can't be said to be indifferent, Riley, we still have to work hard to investigate, don't we?"
"But Your Excellency, at that time, the situation in the Kingdom of Grande was already in danger! I request that you hand over your situation to you, and you will hold a mobilization meeting to order ministers Lu Jun and Hai Jun to form reinforcements and gallop to The central port of the Kingdom, and then go north for reinforcements by land."
