Chapter 1100
Hearing the identity of the so-called "helper", Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's scalp went numb, and he even felt a strange phantom pain on his face.
If there is one person in the whole Kingdom that the freckled Prince is most afraid of, if that cheap brother-in-law considers himself second, I am afraid no one can rank first.
After all, even if he did something absurd and angered the old King, he would at most be reprimanded a few times and then locked up for a few days of confinement. If the Queen pleaded for him, even the confinement could be saved.
But if he angered a certain cheap brother-in-law, he would really be slapped hard, and even slapped until he fainted and then slapped awake, and after treating the injury, he would continue to slap until the other party's anger subsided.
And what is even more desperate is that after the other party finished slapping him, he didn't receive any punishment at all.
Touching his face that had been slapped several times, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya couldn't help but feel a deep sense of powerlessness in his eyes.
The royal family needs to borrow the other party's Duke status to accept the political legacy of the Bobby Laien family, so they will not pursue the crime of beating the Prince, but will choose to settle the matter.
And when he reported to the Cleaning Bureau and asked them to restrain this madman, the response he got was that it had nothing to do with them.
Those idiots actually thought that considering the marriage relationship between that madman and Veronica, judging this kind of family affair belonging to the royal family, as long as the other party didn't use anomalous objects to hurt him, it wouldn't violate the rules of the Cleaning Bureau.
So he, as a Prince, was slapped hard in his own Kingdom, but in the end, there was no place to reason. Where in the world is there such a reason?
"Uncle! Why did you think of asking him for help?"
After observing through the gap in the curtain and seeing a familiar figure in the Vice-Chairman's seat, the freckled Prince couldn't help but instinctively shrink his neck, then turned around and complained:
"That person is a madman! If he is forced, he really doesn't care about the occasion. Couldn't you have discussed it with me before finding a helper?"
"You just came back from the Morna Kingdom last night, how can I discuss it with you? Also, pay attention to your demeanor!"
Looking at his nephew with fear on his face, the Minister of Finance frowned, and scolded with a hint of displeasure:
"Stand straight! Back up! You are the only Prince of the Kingdom! In the future, you will inherit the throne and become the next King of the Kingdom! What are you afraid of?"
"I... I'm not afraid of him, but there are so many people outside, what if he comes over to hit me later..."
"Why would he hit you? In the past, although he hit you, that was when the Bobby Laien family was still useful, and there was Veronica supporting him, so he dared to be so unscrupulous.
Now Veronica is under house arrest in her bedroom, and the value of the Bobby Laien family is almost squeezed out. He is just an empty Duke.
If he really went crazy and dared to hit you in front of so many people, then hit back! If you can't beat him, call the guards! The royal family didn't move him in the past, which doesn't mean they can't move him now! What's there to be afraid of?"
Seems... also right?
After listening to his uncle's words, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Yes, it's different from the past now. The Kingdom can completely punish him! He has no backing, so even if he is arrogant, he shouldn't dare to hit me in front of so many people, right?
Gaining confidence from the Minister of Finance's words, the freckled Prince couldn't help but straighten his back, raised his head with high spirits, and glared fiercely at Leon's direction through the curtain in front of him.
Damn dog thing! This time I want to see how you can still be arrogant! Without Veronica supporting you, you are just a... just a...
"Sss..." After meeting Leon's eyes through the gap in the curtain, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya couldn't help but instinctively gasp.
Although Leon in the seat didn't have any extra expressions, those eyes were staring at him through the gap in the curtain without blinking, and after noticing his gaze, the corners of his mouth even curled up, revealing... a rather gratified expression.
What are you gratified for? Tell me! What are you gratified for at this time?
"Alright, it's about time."
Just when Watching Watching Qiaoshuya's eyes were wide open and he instinctively felt something was wrong, the Minister of Finance took out his pocket watch and looked at it, then urged:
"Go out quickly, it's your turn to go on stage and deliver the imperial declaration."
"Uncle, I... I feel..."
"Go out quickly! We'll talk about it later!"
"..."
Although he felt something was wrong in his heart, as the attendant lifted the curtain in front of him, the freckled Prince could only bite the bullet under the gaze of that gratified look, walked out of the preparation area, climbed onto the main stage prepared for delivering the imperial declaration, and read the speech draft prepared in advance.
"I, First Prince Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, dispatched by the current King of the Kingdom, represent the King and the entire royal family to attend this Upper House parliament."
After reading the awkward opening chapter somewhat awkwardly, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, who was numb from the scalp by someone's gratified gaze, lowered his head, stared at the speech draft, and raised his right hand to swear:
"I will replace the current King and promise to all the parliamentarians and all the subjects of the Kingdom that this Upper House parliament will abide by the Kingdom's code and the parliament rules, in accordance with... upholding... abiding by... maintaining..."
After reading the draft in a hurried and messy speed as if being chased by a flood beast, Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, under the dissatisfied gaze of the Minister of Finance, turned his head and said somewhat embarrassedly:
"My... my declaration ends here. Next, please ask the Speaker to preside over the parliament and... and read out the motions!"
After hurriedly fulfilling his duties, the freckled Prince's tense expression relaxed slightly, then he climbed onto the golden throne behind the main stage, sat on half a buttock cautiously, and looked at the Speaker's seat with vigilance.
And as the imperial declaration ended, the Prince representing the royal family sat on the throne behind the main stage, a total of more than 100 parliamentarians in the venue, plus more than 800 side parliamentarians, a total of nearly a thousand pairs of eyes, brushed toward the Speaker's seat.
Really good, this time I don't have to worry about the Princess not being able to bear to launch a coup. You picked this peach so timely.
After smiling at Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, who was suspicious on the throne, and giving him an encouraging look, Leon got up and left the Speaker's seat, walked up the main stage on the stairs covered with red carpet.
Immediately after, two guards moved the single podium prepared for the Speaker up. Leon stood behind the single podium with his back to Watching Watching Qiaoshuya, picked up the silver small hammer placed on the table, and knocked hard on the golden clock beside the podium.
"I announce!"
Looking around at the parliamentarians standing on the left and right sides of the stage, Leon announced with a full face of smiles:
"The... Upper House parliament officially begins!"
