Chapter 1248 You have to allow others to make conditions, right?

"This is framed!"

In a certain office of the Privy Council, the old nobleman stood in front of His Excellency the Duke, his face flushed with anger. He didn't send anyone to smash up the little Earl's shop at all. The other party directly pointed the finger at him. Framed!

He had reason to be angry, he had been wronged, blamed for something he hadn't done.

His Excellency the Duke frowned. He took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes, looking a little tired, "He didn't say that someone else did it, but he just said that you did it. There must be a reason."

Then he let go of his hands and looked at the old nobleman.

The skin around the glasses has become loose and wrinkled, and his eyes are not as clear as those of the children. They look full of all kinds of dullness and plaques, and they are also very cloudy.

But it was these eyes that put a lot of pressure on the old nobleman.

The old nobleman closed his mouth and did not speak.

But the Duke talked about the incident that happened before, "I remember your daughter's husband, Kipling, is his name?" After getting an affirmative answer, he continued, "It seems that he was beaten a few days ago. After a meal, someone said it was done by their nephew, and it happened very quickly."

"None of us would believe this was an isolated incident, would you?"

"And..." Your Excellency the Duke said with a slightly heavier tone, "We all know what we should do most now, and we also know who our real opponent is, what do you think?"

Uniting all nobles to overthrow the monarchy has become the consensus of the nobles, and this is supported by historical evidence.

For example, when the Gafla Empire was established, Gefra I promised the nobles that he would let each noble have the power they should have in their hands, just like in the noble council stage.

But soon the royal family began to turn their faces, and the power of the nobles was gradually and completely "confiscated".

Now the Prime Minister's proposal to overthrow the monarchy has provided a reasonable excuse for the nobles. No matter whether this matter is ultimately successful or failed, there is no loss for the nobles, but there are many benefits.

If it fails, the only ones who will be unlucky are the prime minister and the ministers. These nobles in the Privy Council have long left the core of power, and they have nothing that can be deprived by the imperial power.

It succeeded, the royal family moved behind the scenes, and the Privy Council and the nobles began to regain power. Maybe not all nobles can control power, but as long as there are more nobles than before, it is a victory!
Moreover, the rotation and election system can also allow more nobles to have access to power, which is a good thing.

Fighting without cost will never lack warriors, and this is the situation that everyone should maintain at this stage.

There was some threat in His Excellency's words, and the old noble fell silent. He could tell that the other party meant to let him bear it.

This made him very dissatisfied in his heart. When his shop was smashed, it was equivalent to someone slapping him in the face. The slap was so urgent and fast that everyone in the imperial capital heard a "slap".

Let him bear it now, what will others think of him?

The old nobleman did not speak, and remained silent all the time. He looked at His Excellency the Duke.

In fact, in terms of the status between the two parties, the hereditary duke is indeed higher than the old nobles in terms of title, but now everyone is a noble without power, and at most there is a gap in wealth.

It was these wealth disparities that made him bear it, and he felt that he could not bear it.

Your Excellency the Duke is also very aware of the character of the nobles. He is also a nobleman himself, and he also knows that it is indeed inappropriate to do so.

After pondering for a while, he decided to help the other party find a way, "I will talk to the little count about this matter, and he will apologize to you in front of everyone and tell everyone that these are all misunderstandings!"

The expression on the old nobleman's face became softer, and he bowed slightly, "Then I will leave everything to you."

After letting the old nobleman leave, His Excellency the Duke sighed. He sat back on the chair, held the glasses frame in one hand, and picked up the phone in the other.

"Let the little count come to see me..."

At this moment, the little count was trembling all over, not because of any other reasons, but because he was so excited that he was trembling!
For him, what happened in the past few days is simply impossible to describe in the language he has mastered. After all, there is no cultural crystallization of "shuang" here, only "I feel a shivering joy from the inside out." .

Obviously the later expression is more detailed and detailed, but it is not as direct, crisp, and accurate as the word "shuang".

He had never felt so happy before, when he knew that those uncles and aunts might even think of hurting him in order to fight for the title, he would always feel scared.

He didn't think about taking revenge after he became a prince. His mother didn't teach him these things, and didn't teach him what a nobleman should do.

Like revenge or something.

He thought about doing that, but in the end he gave up until Lynch appeared, until this moment!
"The expressions of those people are frozen, they seem to be stupid!", the little earl waved his arms a little out of composure, and described to his mother what happened in the Privy Council.

When most of the nobles knew that the little count had smashed the old noble's shop and came to sue, everyone seemed to have seen a ghost.

In fact, I can't say that completely. Some older nobles are very calm about these things.

You must know that creatures like nobles have not been good people for a long time in the past.

Throughout the history of the capital of Gefra, the top ten disasters that caused the largest number of deaths all came from the fighting between nobles.

War may have been banned for a variety of reasons, but the original band of robbers, horse thieves and other nobles who relied on violent gangs to make their fortunes were not elegant at all.

They have always advocated the use of violent means to solve problems. If the royal family hadn't become more and more tough, they would even dare to show the emperor's face.

This is why there will always be some old people who miss the past while spurning the present - people are so fucking docile!
Even the federal side has a saying that they believe that the first massacres of the native aborigines of the federation were the Gefra people, not the federal people, so the name of the genocide should not be planted on the heads of the federal people and the federal government.

Their reasons are also very good. Those who did those things were criminals who were exiled from Gefra, or gold diggers who came here to look for opportunities. They are all Gefra people in essence.

Only the new generation after the founding of the country are federal people, and these federal people have not participated in any genocide.

This kind of view is not unreasonable. After all, the aborigines were almost extinct. The first generation of "federals" after the founding of the Federation saw the aborigines as if they were animals in the "ethnic reserve". They had not seen a living native anywhere.

This is not to mention massacre or something.

Civilization is always built on barbarism, it should only be a cloak of barbarism, not anything else.

Barbarism and violence are what people have in their bones, civilization has never been.

Who the fuck uses his mouth when he can solve problems with his fists?
For the first time, the little count felt how intense the joy brought by violence was. He felt that now he could take care of five girls at the same time and give them the happiest moment.

The former countess was a little worried. She looked at Lynch, and Lynch shook his head slightly, expressing through his eyes that he could handle it.

The phone rang suddenly, and the little count watched the phone ring a few times before walking over to answer it. Then his brows furrowed, and finally he suppressed his emotions and said, "I see."

He hung up the phone and looked at Lynch. The former countess got up and left. She felt that this should be men's time, and it was not convenient for her to participate.

"It's Felix's call..."

Felix is ​​the surname of His Excellency the Duke. When addressing other nobles, especially the head of the family, people will not call them by their first names, but directly by their surnames.

Only the surname can represent a family and reflect the status of a nobleman.

"He wants me to go!", the little count looked at Lynch, he was a little uneasy, "Should I go?"

Lynch nodded, "Of course you're going. As long as you're still in Gafla, you can't avoid the Privy Council, and you can't avoid His Excellency Duke Felix."

"But you don't have to worry too much about what he will do. No matter how he persuades you, you just need to tell him how your uncle bullied you, but the Privy Council did not stand up to uphold justice for you."

"If the Duke of Phoenix asks you to apologize, or give the other party a step, don't refuse."

"But you have to make your request and tell him to hand over your uncle to you, and you will apologize!"

"Don't forget, there is also the property that guy stole from here!"

The little count seemed to have realized something, he was stunned for a while, his face was still a little excited, "I understand, it is better to reject others with harsh conditions than to refuse directly!"

Lynch didn't expect him to think like this, "As long as you're happy."

Then the little Earl appeared opposite the Duke of Phoenix. Just as Lynch expected, the Duke asked him not to mess around for the time being, and everything should focus on the main thing at present.

The little count also made his request appropriately, which surprised the Duke of Phoenix, because in his impression, the little count is not a tough person, even if his title is not ordinary!
However, what he said did make His Excellency the Duke realize that there are still some problems in the Privy Council.

In the past, when people tried to seize the title and property of the little earl, the Privy Council was silent.

Now that the little earl is about to take revenge, the Privy Council will take action to stop it, which is very unreasonable.

He actually approved of the request made by the little earl. It is a good deal to exchange a worthless traitor and the things he stole in exchange for the two parties to stop.
