Chapter 310: Turning the Clouds
Weird, too weird!
Da Liang, who was anxious to push Abigail to the throne, suddenly felt that things were far from being as simple as he imagined.
Abigail wants to get on the throne with the child in her womb, and she must seek outside support. Because she has no name after all, these dignitaries can completely deprive the so-called orthodox inheritance rights as illegitimate children.
Anyway, if you say you have the right to inherit, you will have the right to inherit, and if you don't have it, you won't.
And Abigail temporarily wooed his brother when the meeting was about to start, didn't he feel that it was a temporary cramming?
She was so sure we would have her back.
This kind of surprise attack without saying hello in advance. Even true allies will be blindfolded, not to mention that everyone is not on good terms because of Monica.
If her brother didn't stand up and support her just now, she would obviously put herself in a very dangerous situation.
However, Abigail is definitely not such a reckless person.
She must have someone else to support her, and her brother is just a preferred option for her. Even if we don't express our opinions, there will definitely be people who will stand up for her.
Who is it?
Da Liang quickly swept the people in the conference room, and the weighty people had their own clear attitudes. But the ones who can support Abigail and influence everyone's decision-making are Saint Bella and Macaulay.
Divine Bella will not easily step into the troubled waters of the power circle of Shangjiang City, then Macaulay, who represents hell, will be left.
Macaulay came too coincidentally, and this kind of internal meeting in Shangjiang City, he, a former city lord of Qingpu City who had been removed from his title, was not qualified to participate. He must have offered to sit here, and Joshua didn't want to offend Hell for such a thing, so he brought him in.
Thinking about it this way, the leak of Howard's disappearance was not Joshua's fault.
It's Macaulay.
The defeat of the Jeju fleet deprived Hell of the opportunity to intervene in Sanggang Castle. So they immediately activated another dark piece. Macaulay knew the whole process of Howard's disappearance, knew that Abigail was pregnant with Howard's child, and knew the Dark Elf housemother's desire for power.
So Macaulay released the news of Howard's disappearance, and then encouraged Abigail to compete for the throne. As long as Abigail can hold the power of Shangjiang City, he can issue an order to let the fallen angels enter the city, and Holy Bella has no objection.
Da Liang figured out the key in time, and then immediately stopped Abigail from taking the final step to power.
As long as Abigail has no name, he is not qualified to call the shots in Shangjiang City.
Abigail didn't expect that the person who prevented him from becoming queen turned out to be Da Liang, who had just supported him in ousting Joshua from power.
"Count Daliang, do you know what you're doing?"
In the face of Abigail's hints, Da Liang said righteously: "Abigail Mistress, I know what I'm doing? I am upholding the majesty of the royal family, the queen is the king's wife, and we are only the king's subjects. If we choose a wife for the king, we will only bring shame on the king. Mistress Abigail, please get up from that position and sit down in your place.
We are going to choose a prime minister right away to run the city until the new king comes of age. ”
As soon as Da Liang finished speaking, Marquis Stanley slapped the table and said, "Did you hear that, Abigail!" Count Daliang told you to stand up. Now hurry up and elect the former minister, I have delayed too much time here, you don't know how much money I can earn in a minute, think about the time I am not in Jiading, there are people who are evading taxes...... Gosh, I just want to go back to my castle right now. ”
Da Liang and the Marquis of Stanley made it clear that they did not support Abigail as queen, and the other city lords and ministers did not stand up against it.
Abigail, who had just taken off and was photographed, turned his attention to Macaulay.
Macaulay was in a great dilemma at this time.
Competing for the throne, with Howard's heirs in his hands, Hell is also famous for supporting Abigail. But it is really too far-fetched for Hell to help Abigail compete for the position of queen, not to mention that Da Liang characterized this matter as an internal private matter of the Shangjiang royal family, and outsiders are really not qualified to be crowned.
And Da Liang's relationship with Divine Bella is very delicate. Just now, Da Liang asked for the support of Holy Bella, and she immediately responded. The Holy Bella represents the attitude of Cloudsdale, and during this special time, Hell has always maintained a strategy of restraint in dealing with Cloudsdale.
But you can't just let Abigail be driven down and lose the door to Hell and Shangjiang City.
Regarding what happened after Abigail's sealing, Macaulay thought for a moment and said, "My lords, as the godfather of the new king, I think I can express some of my personal views at this meeting. Mistress Abigail and the new king cannot be separated, and she should live in the palace, which is conducive to the safety and growth of the new king. At the same time, as the mother of the new king, she should have an identity and status that matches it. I think that Abigail should be in charge of the position of prime minister, and when the new king comes of age, he can smoothly carry out the transition of power. ”
Macaulay's public support for Abigail made everyone understand where the true strength of the Black Elf housemother came from. With Hell's support, I'm afraid that even if Da Liang didn't stand up, Joshua would not have been able to claim the throne, but instead gave Macaulay an excuse to support Abigail to the throne by force.
At this time, everyone couldn't help but admire Da Liang's keen sense of smell, and he actually saw that Abigail colluded with Hell in time, pretending to support the orthodoxy of the royal family, letting Abigail enter the game, and restricting the struggle for power to the royal family's housework, so that Hell had no legitimate excuse to use force.
Clever ......
The ministers looked at Da Liang together, and Macaulay proposed to give Abigail the right identity, and it was up to Da Liang to deal with it and prevent Abigail from taking power.
Da Liang said: "The former prime minister has to manage the affairs of the entire Shangjiang River, and the work is extremely heavy. The most important thing for Abigail's mother now is to rest and recuperate, and I am afraid that she will not be able to do the hard work of the former prime minister. As for identity? The King's mother is already very honorable, and I think that all the adults here will respect Abigail as much as Your Majesty. ”
The ministers said, "We will certainly respect Mistress Abigail as much as Your Majesty." ”
Abigail's face was already blue with anger. She originally wanted to go to the pinnacle of power through formal channels, but she was not put on the spotlight. Now Hell has no way to use force, and the nobles are collectively crowding themselves out.
Respect, no rights, respect has a fart.
She glared fiercely, and reluctantly stood up from her seat in the silence and sat back in her place.
Da Liang, who unknowingly took over the chairmanship of the meeting, said: "Next, we need to elect the imperial prime minister as soon as possible to maintain the normal order of Shangjiang." ”
Imperial Prime Minister, I'm afraid there is no one in the entire Shangjiang City who is more qualified to sit on the throne than her.
