Chapter 1103: A Harmonious Meeting (Finale)

~8 min read 1,478 words

No... why did you suddenly get serious?

Facing Li Ang's "muddled sudden hammer-drop" method, the members present were first stunned, then immediately furious!

Playing tricks and fooling people before was fine; after all, it wasn't themselves who were making a fool of themselves, and everyone could even watch for fun. Naturally, there was no need to go head-to-head with this Acting Speaker.

But now, the officer replacement order, which concerned the interests of half the people present and was of unparalleled importance, you actually want to settle it directly in such a childish way? This is simply...

"Absurd!"

Lord Moli, who had been played twice, slammed the table in front of him, stood up for the third time, pointed at Li Ang's nose, and cursed:

"This is the Upper House! Not a place for you to perform monkey tricks! You are not fit to be Deputy Speaker at all! Get down here immediately!"

"Right!"

Seeing someone take the lead, the remaining noble members whose interests were damaged by the officer replacement order stood up one after another to denounce him:

"How can you be allowed to mess around in such a sacred place as the parliament?"

"Get down!"

"In my opinion, it's better to add a temporary proposal to cancel the Laien family's Deputy Speaker seat!"

"Right! And the officer replacement order must be re-voted! We do not recognize proposals passed in this way!"

"Step down! Step down!"

This is bad!

Looking at the surging crowd of members below, the Minister of Finance on the side of the main stage couldn't help but widen his eyes, wishing he could pounce on the stage and strangle Li Ang to death!

Among the 168 members present, nearly 40% had already leaned toward the Royal Family, and another 20% had been persuaded by Weiluonika. As long as the proposal was submitted normally, it would pass the initial deliberation 100%.

Then Watching Qiaoshuya would stand up again, according to his own arrangements, to represent the Royal Family and take a strong stance, first suppressing a portion, then taking a half-step back to win over another portion, and they could achieve a two-thirds majority to thoroughly finalize the replacement order.

And Watching Qiaoshuya, who had attended this Upper House meeting and "single-handedly" facilitated the implementation of the replacement order, could also take over a portion of Weiluonika's people, build up his own prestige, and successfully swallow the biggest benefits.

It was clearly a sure thing as long as it was done normally, yet this damn Lionheart Duke had to do something extra and play some underhanded tricks!

Now the opposition members were annoyed and started making a scene, and the members on his and Watching Qiaoshuya's side were in the wrong and couldn't stand up to speak. If this Acting Speaker were driven off the stage and it led to a re-vote, the sure thing would really be in trouble!

Something that fails to achieve success but succeeds in causing failure!

After defining Li Ang, who was "struggling" on the stage, in his heart, the Minister of Finance looked at Watching Qiaoshuya, who was somewhat at a loss on the throne, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

He was still just an underage child after all. Encountering such a scene of surging public anger, his heart must have panicked long ago. It seemed he couldn't count on Watching Qiaoshuya to speak up and stabilize the situation. At a time like this, he had to do it himself!

"Everyone, please calm down!"

"Everyone, please listen to me first!"

The Minister of Finance stood up from his seat and said loudly:

"What is most important right now is that the Upper House meeting proceeds normally!"

"Quiet! Everyone be quiet!"

Although the Minister of Finance's prestige wasn't bad, perhaps because they had been played so hard by Li Ang, the members' emotions were unusually full. They flushed red and scolded him for acting recklessly and desecrating such a sacred scene as the parliament.

And Lord Moli, who was hot-tempered and had lost face twice in a row, directly raised his voice and began to curse. The Minister of Finance's desperate dissuasion was completely covered by the cursing.

After shouting desperately twice and finding his voice covered, the Minister of Finance also became a bit anxious. Li Ang on the stage seemed to notice him and hurriedly waved at him, signaling him to come up to the stage to speak. He even lifted the golden bell that had just fallen and bent down to pick up the small silver hammer that had fallen on the ground.

Right, there's also the bell! After seeing Li Ang's actions, the anxious Minister of Finance suddenly reacted. At a time of such surging public anger, wanting to drown out the cursing naturally relied on louder noise, and the golden bell on the stage was undoubtedly the best way.

After thinking of the "only solution" at the moment, the Minister of Finance was overjoyed. He didn't even take the stairs to the main stage, but climbed onto the stage using his hands and feet, grabbed the small silver hammer in Li Ang's hand, and prepared to ring the bell to stabilize the situation.

However, just at this moment, a red light flashed in the eyes of Lord Moli below the stage, and the anger in his heart suddenly doubled. He didn't know why, but the more he looked at Li Ang on the stage, the more of an eyesore he became.

Unable to bear his rage, he simply unbuckled his leg, took off the big leather shoe he was stepping on, then let out a shout and threw the shoe at Li Ang on the stage with all his might.

Although his throw was a bit crooked, Li Ang on the stage seemed to be startled, took two steps back abruptly, and the hand holding the small silver hammer also dodged upward, causing the Minister of Finance, who was going to grab the hammer, to follow forward, and his head also lifted up with the momentum...

"Bang!"

Only a muffled sound that even the cursing in the hall couldn't suppress was heard. Lord Moli's big leather shoe, made of raw cowhide, with a wooden block on the heel and iron plating on the tip, estimated to weigh two or three jin, landed solidly on the back of the Minister of Finance's head, directly knocking him face-down.

And Li Ang, who was "startled," instinctively dodged backward, avoiding the hands that were flailing when the Minister of Finance fell, but the single-person podium beside him couldn't avoid it. It was pulled down by the Minister of Finance and smashed directly onto him with a 'bang'.

Huh?

What's going on?

Why did the Minister of Finance fall?

I don't know? I didn't see clearly what happened either.

It seems something was thrown over, and then the person fell down.

Facing this unexpected scene, all the members below the stage, including Lord Moli, who had thrown the shoe himself under the control of sudden rage, were stunned together. Only Li Ang on the stage was not stunned, but sighed with a bit of helplessness.

This actually didn't knock him unconscious. My luck is really not just generally bad... But it doesn't matter.

In Watching Qiaoshuya's expression of extreme shock, Li Ang's right foot, which was blocked by the podium, suddenly kicked forward with a burst of force, landing directly on the Minister of Finance's forehead.

After suffering this kick, the Minister of Finance, whose head had been repeatedly hit, finally passed out solidly with the shoe print on his forehead. As for Li Ang, who had completed the finishing blow, he pointed at Lord Moli, who was stunned below the stage, and shouted sternly:

"Someone is assassinating the Minister of Finance! Guards! Guards!"

"No! It's not me! I didn't!"

Hearing Li Ang's words, Lord Moli below the stage was shocked and finally broke free from that uncontrollable rage.

However, the guards, who had been startled by the sudden situation and had received the Acting Speaker's order, had already rushed over and pounced on him with fierce expressions, playing a game of stacking on Lord Moli, pressing him until he screamed incessantly. And Li Ang on the stage cried out sadly at the right time:

"Minister! Minister! Minister, wake up, Minister!"

Dragging the kicked-unconscious Minister of Finance out from under the single-person podium, and incidentally wiping the shoe-sole dust off his face, Li Ang, having cleaned up the aftermath, threw the Minister of Finance back to the ground, then punched the single-person podium in front of him, and sprayed angrily at the stage below:

"Look at the good things you've done! This is a sacred parliament! Not a vegetable market on the street! What do you take this place for?"
