Chapter 1173 Admission
Although the queen of the goblin tribe is the ruler, she can also be deposed by the nine elders.
The removal proposal only needs to be proposed by one elder, but at least five of the nine elders need to agree to pass it.
After the passage, the contemporary queen will step down, and her successor will become the new queen.
This power of removal was established by the ancestors of the goblin clan, in order to avoid the appearance of a brain-dead ruler, who would lead the goblin clan into the abyss, and never recover.
The third elder spoke in a hurry and said his dismissal, and the fifth elder took the opportunity to let the recall mechanism take effect.
The Fairy Queen didn't say a word about this, and let her do whatever she wanted.
Except for the First Elder and Biris, the other elders were a little shaken by the Fifth Elder's misleading.
The Fifth Elder: "Although I respect Her Majesty the Queen and understand why Her Majesty did this, your Majesty's actions have already endangered the safety of our family. If you cannot appease Your Excellency Chen Fang's anger, then the future of our family will be bleak."
"And now our clan can't move to another place again. If we can't maintain friendship with Nirvana City but turn against each other, it will be very bad for our clan, and it may bring hundreds of thousands of people's lives."
"That's why I propose that His Majesty be wronged and His Highness Biris succeed."
"Of course, considering His Highness's lack of experience, our nine elders can help you."
When the Fifth Elder spoke, he acted as if I only said this for the sake of my clansmen.
And he focused on the word "assistant", throwing bait to other elders.
Power is like stinky tofu, it smells rotten and tastes delicious, this bait is extremely attractive.
The Fifth Elder wasn't worried at all about whether someone would bite the bait.
Being in a high position and tasting the delicacy of power, the Fifth Elder believes that there are people who want to eat more just like himself.
Moreover, among the nine elders, except for the Great Elder and the Third Elder, the other elders all have small thoughts.
The Fifth Elder believed that in the game he was playing, there must be someone who couldn't resist the temptation and entered the game and became his pawn.
You know, this is an excellent opportunity to suppress the imperial power and improve the power of the elders.
The fifth elder looked at the other elders whose expressions had changed because of his words, and felt complacent.
Bi Lisi saw the Fifth Elder mentioned herself and wanted to stand up and express her opinion, but was stopped by the Fairy Queen and gave her a wink, telling her to wait and see what happened.
Although puzzled, Biris had always obeyed the Fairy Queen, so she could only restrain herself.
After stopping Biris, the Fairy Queen quietly watched the performance of the fifth elder.
Although she felt disgusted in her heart, she did not make any arguments. Anyway, no matter how hard the other party tried, it would be futile in the end.
I just took this opportunity to see the true colors of the others except the Fifth Elder.
On the side, the third elder secretly hated himself for being quick to talk. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want to depose the queen, but he felt that what the fifth elder said was reasonable, and he was a little entangled.
The other elders pondered in silence, weighing the pros and cons.
The First Elder was a staunch supporter of the Empress. After all, he was the Empress's husband. Seeing the other elders' hesitation and seeing the Empress acting as an outsider who had nothing to do with him, he immediately became anxious.
"I disagree. Your Majesty has devoted herself to our family since she took the throne. Before that, she led my family here to avoid disasters and saved my family from the evil hands of the demons and wild beasts. Have you forgotten all of this? Yet?"
"Also, your majesty, although she did something wrong this time, her original intention was also for my family's consideration. Isn't it right to think from her standpoint?"
"And do you want to consider the opinions of the tribe, don't underestimate the status of His Majesty in the hearts of the tribe."
The Great Elder shouted loudly.
After what he said, the other elders recalled the past of the Fairy Queen, and thought of the people's support for the Queen, their small thoughts gradually faded away, and the balance in their hearts began to tilt again.
Seeing this, the fifth elder also stood up. At this time, the dismissal must not fail.
"Great Elder, how could we forget what you said."
The fifth elder used these words to secretly bind himself with the remaining seven elders.
"However, His Majesty's wrong approach has caused our family to fall into crisis. This is a fact."
"Our family has no strength now, so we must rely on His Excellency Chen Fang and Nirvana City."
"Of course, if you can tell me how to appease Your Excellency Chen Fang's anger, or keep our family from being in crisis in the future, then I will never mention the dismissal again."
In the last sentence, the Fifth Elder is advancing by retreating.
What can the great elder do?
But he was still stubborn, bit the bullet and said:
"That's right, our clan is now relying on Nirvana City, but we can't compromise because of this. My fairy clan's thousand-year heritage, has it been reduced to the point where I want to please someone by dismissing the queen, and I don't want to lose face."
"Once His Majesty is really dismissed because of this matter, how can our family raise its head in front of Nirvana City in the future? They must think that we are easy to pinch. They can't say that they will intensify and propose the idea of making us their vassals."
Fifth Elder: "Could it be possible to disregard the safety of the clansmen for the sake of face? This doesn't convince us."
Great Elder: "Then what if they think our family is so weak and want us to become vassals?"
Fifth Elder: "Aren't we going to resist?"
The Great Elder said angrily: "Since you want to resist, why don't you resist with face?"
The Fifth Elder sneered and said, "Did you make a mistake in your premise?"
The great elder was stunned.
He did get the premise wrong.
The Great Elder, who was a little dizzy, calmed down.
"It's a big deal that we will migrate again. I believe that as long as our family survives for a while, it will definitely become stronger."
The Fifth Elder sneered and said: "Let's not talk about our migration, whether Nirvana City will let us go, but with the current situation of our clan, do you think our clan is still capable of another migration? Do you think the tribe is still willing to go with us?"
"this……"
The elder hesitated.
The first migration was due to the situation, that is, because the facts later proved that their approach was right, the clansmen suppressed their complaints.
But if they migrate again in the difficult present without a good reason, the clansmen will definitely not want to. Even if they are forced to migrate, the future will definitely end in personal dissatisfaction.
Seeing that the First Elder was speechless, the Fifth Elder couldn't help but feel complacent, but he quickly noticed and restrained himself.
"So, the only way we have now is to wrong His Majesty."
The Fifth Elder persuaded him earnestly, the other elders were moved again, and the First Elder was a little desperate.
Seeing that it was almost done, the Fifth Elder said respectfully to the Fairy Queen, "Your Majesty, I don't know if you have anything to say at this point."
This sentence is already very rude. Obviously, the Fifth Elder still couldn't suppress his emotions in the face of the upcoming success.
The Fairy Queen glanced at the fifth elder indifferently, said without saying much, "Since you all agree, it's useless for me to say anything, let's start directly."
The speech as if resigning to fate made the fifth elder excited, and immediately said loudly: "Then let's vote."
"I disagree."
"Me too."
When the Fifth Elder's voice fell, the Great Elder and the Third Elder spoke out first without hesitation and vetoed it.
If the Great Elder doesn't talk about it, he and the Fairy Queen and his wife are naturally of one mind.
The third elder felt guilty because the dismissal proposal came from his own mouth. At the same time, he was more inclined to the elder elder's statement, so he disagreed.
Except for the Fifth Elder who did not make a statement, the other elders also expressed their opinions one after another seeing that the matter had come to this point.
As a result, the Sixth Elder and the Ninth Elder disagreed, and the rest all agreed.
Four against four.
Only the Fifth Elder remained silent, but his answer was self-evident.
The Great Elder's shoulders slumped, his expression was lonely, and he suddenly aged a few years.
"Mother."
Biris looked sad, pulling the Fairy Queen not knowing what to say.
And the Fairy Queen still stood there calmly, not saying anything, just remembering some people on and off the stage in her heart.
Holding the result in his hand, the fifth elder was naturally proud, and couldn't help laughing: "The result is obvious, then I announce that the dismissal proposal is passed..."
"etc."
Suddenly, a voice sounded from the door, interrupting the Fifth Elder's words.
"Who is so bold, dare to interrupt me."
Seeing that the matter was about to come to fruition, he was about to knock down the empress who was high above him with one hand, and when he made a big achievement, he was interrupted, and the fifth elder was naturally furious.
"Your father and I, why do we have any objections?"
The voice is light and full of teasing.
When everyone looked over, they saw Chen Fang go and come back.
The fifth elder's expression changed.
"Your Excellency Chen Fang, you... why are you here?"
Chen Fang nodded to the goblin queen, then looked at the fifth elder with a half-smile and said, "Why don't I come, after all, it's about me."
The Fifth Elder had a bad feeling in his heart. He didn't know why Chen Fang appeared on the stage at this time, but he still said calmly:
"Your Excellency Chen Fang, what we are doing now has nothing to do with you, it is an internal matter of our clan, please don't interfere."
Chen Fang smiled and said, "Of course I won't interfere in the affairs of your clan. I just came here to ask you to give me an explanation."
The Fifth Elder heaved a sigh of relief.
"Then can you allow us a little time, and at most tomorrow will give you a satisfactory explanation."
Chen Fang walked up to the high platform and said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow? I'm sorry, I can't wait until tomorrow. I can't sleep because I'm holding my breath. If I can't sleep well, I lose my temper. When I lose my temper, I might bring some People come to reason, so you better give me an explanation now."
"this……"
Facing Chen Fang's threat, the Fifth Elder became embarrassed.
Although the wish is to pull down the queen as a scapegoat to explain to Chen Fang, but the necessary face is still to be done. Let the goblin queen accept Chen Fang's trial in the public, what will happen to the goblins.
His original plan was to depose the Fairy Empress, discuss the matter with Chen Fang in private, and keep in touch with Chen Fang to minimize the influence, so that he could make some achievements and stand out from other elders.
But now Chen Fang seemed to solve it on the spot, which made him at a loss.
Chen Fang ignored the Fifth Elder, pulled up two chairs, and invited the Fairy Queen to sit down together, then crossed Erlang's legs and said, "Your Majesty, what are you doing? Why do I sound like someone is about to be dismissed, yes?" It's not that you found out the person who spread the news, because that person is in a high position, so you proposed to dismiss him."
In fact, Chen Fang had never left before, and had been hiding in the dark, peeking and eavesdropping. He naturally knew who was dismissed, so he did it on purpose.
The Fairy Queen cooperated: "That person is me."
Chen Fangxuan was shocked and couldn't believe it.
"What, it's you, Your Majesty, so you sent someone to forge the letter of my consent."
The Fairy Queen shook her head, then looked at the Fifth Elder pointedly, and said, "No, there is someone else who did this, and the Fifth Elder couldn't be more clear about who did it."
"oh."
Chen Fang then looked at the fifth elder and said, "This elder, can you tell me who it is?"
The Fifth Elder sensed that something was wrong and became anxious immediately.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean? This matter has been investigated very clearly. Isn't it because you want to improve the strength of our clan?"
"Hehe." The Fairy Queen sneered silently.
Chen Fang took the conversation, and asked the Fifth Elder: "Although I am very angry, I really hope to find the person who dared to offend me, but at the same time, I don't want to wrong anyone. You said that His Majesty did it. Do you have any evidence?"
The Fifth Elder pointed to Luo Du, who was still receiving treatment, and said, "Luo Du is the envoy of this mission, and he can prove that the previous incident was ordered by His Majesty."
Disrespectful words like "instigating" came out. Obviously, the Fifth Elder's palace was not enough, and he was a little panicked when he sensed that the atmosphere was not right.
The First Elder and the Third Elder immediately shouted: "Kayli, how dare you disrespect His Majesty."
The Fifth Elder also realized that it was wrong, but stiffened his neck and said forcefully: "Just now the proposal was dismissed with five votes to four votes. She is no longer Your Majesty. Why is it disrespectful? I still call her Your Majesty just because of her past treatment of me. respect for the merits of the clan."
"you……"
The great elder's neck turned red with anger, but he was speechless to refute.
Although the Fifth Elder was interrupted by Chen Fang before the announcement was made, the voting had indeed ended and the results had been announced. This was an irreversible fact.
Chen Fang ignored the noise over there, but pointed to Luo Du and said to the Fairy Queen, "Your Majesty, do you mind if I ask him a few words?"
Naturally, the Fairy Queen would not disagree. Because of the misleading by the Fifth Elder, everyone present had already decided that she was responsible for the matter. She hoped that Chen Fang would help her get rid of the crime.
Seeing that the Fairy Queen agreed, Chen Fang said to Luo Du: "Tell me the matter again."
Luo Du didn't dare to hide anything, and told what happened to him again.
Chen Fang touched his chin after listening, and thought about it for a while.
"Let me ask you, are you sure you received a letter from your majesty?"
Luo Du was taken aback for a moment, and said truthfully: "It's not a handwritten letter, but stamped with His Majesty's seal."
Chen Fang: "Is the letter still there?"
Luo Du shook his head: "The letter reminded me to burn it after reading it, so as not to let others know, so I burned it."
Chen Fang looked at the Fairy Queen and said, "Your Majesty, is the seal you use only you can use?"
The Fairy Queen shook her head.
"The seal is usually in charge of the nine elders, and it is usually locked in a special storage room. The key is kept by the nine elders in turn. Only when I need to sign major resolutions, can I ask for it from the elders. Before, I only used it when my clan migrated. It was used, and it has been kept by the nine elders since then."
This is also one of the rules set by the ancestors of the goblin clan, in order to fear that unfilial descendants will abuse the imperial power.
After Chen Fang's question, Bi Lisi's eyes lit up standing behind the Fairy Queen, and she excitedly said to her mother, "Mother, let me check who has been in contact with the seal recently, maybe I can find something."
While Biris was speaking, the Fairy Queen secretly observed the expression of the Fifth Elder, but saw that his expression was normal, and realized that there should be nothing to be found for such an obvious flaw, but she did not stop it.
"Go."
Billy left excitedly.
The Fifth Elder saw it and sneered in his heart.
