The New Year has passed. According to the government announcement, entering the second year of the Kai Yuan Dynasty, People take a holiday. Now every segment and administration of the empire has been fully established. The government is preparing for the official establishment of the kingdom soon.

The 7-day long holiday period is concise. When peace has passed, The political turmoil returns. The schedule for the selection of council members is getting closer. If based on the Act established, the Parliament announced. Within 14 days, the emperor will have time to select a representative to work in the Imperial Parliament.

People in business and capitalists have begun their considerable patronizing again. They had already sent many gifts to Zhao Lingxin. But they couldn't guess the emperor's mind. Because Zhao Lingxin received gifts, everyone didn't refuse. Capitalists are doing nothing right. They wanted to promote their position in political societies, so they began to find another way.

So the next step, they begin to approach the high-ranking figures in the government, namely the various ministers. To proceed with bribing them In the hope that the Minister will whisper in the emperor's ear Give them a little compliment to the emperor. Then select himself to be a member of the council.

The Cabinet certainly did not dare to accept a bribe blatantly like Zhao Lingxin. They all have professional ethics, not to mention that there is a close watch of the Bureau of Internal Audit. Keep pulling out the corrupt officers.

"Your Majesty, my father is a virtuous businessman. Philanthropist and loves to help people. A few days ago, He also sent rice to distribute to people in the country's wilderness," said Sun Wanping, praising his father. Honored until Sun Yuan almost became a saint and deity in human form.

Sun Wanping was assigned the duty of his father to persuade Zhao Lingxin. Elect himself to have the right to the Imperial Parliament's chair, and Sun Wanping could not refuse Sun Yuan's orders. Therefore having to make himself look be shameless

, Come and talk to the emperor.

Zhao Ling Xin knew Sun Wanping's purpose very well. Zhao Lingxin definitely had no way of believing that a businessman like Sun Yuan would be an excellent man. But when the other wants to be a Parliament member, Zhao Lingxin would definitely have to look for a few advantages.

"Sun Wanping, now the treasury is lacking the Spirit Stone again. The spirit stone sent by your father that time ago. I've spent all of it. "

Zhao Lingxin said lightly. It's some mysterious sign, But when it hit Sun Wanping's ears, he understood the implications that the emperor wanted.

"I will bring this message to my father," Sun Wanping said with joy. If he did not understand Zhao Lingxin's meaning, He would not be suitable for the Minister's position.

Sun Yuan, who had heard his son's words, immediately took action.

"You guys must be brought all the spirit stones. If this is not enough, sell my shares, bring cash to exchange for the spirit stones now." Sun Yuan ordered his close people to hurry and get as many spirits as possible.

He did not know at the time that rumors had spread that the emperor was extremely popular and favored the spirit stone—causing everyone to realize that they had sent the wrong gift. Many of them began to send their servants overseas and bought the spirit stones until they were empty. As a result, now the price of the spirit stone had increased by 20 percent. Even if the price had increased, it would not stop the massive demand at this time.

The political climate of the empire was in chaos at this time. Because the council members' selection is getting closer and closer, Not everyone wants to miss the train, so they spend a lot of money to get the power.

Qin Bo delivered a long list of hundreds of pages of gifts to Zhao Lingxin. Within the memo, there is a list of the gifts shipped.

"Your Majesty, this is a gift from them."

Zhao Ling Xin received a list of gifts to read. Then nod in satisfaction.

"These businessmen have invested a lot. I underestimate their enthusiasm." Zhao Lingxin secretly praised capitalists' wealth because just the gift item in his hand was almost the same value as the empire's annual budget.

"How will Your Majesty elect the council members?" Qin Bo was concerned about these bribery movements. He was worried about the future of the empire. Therefore I wanted to know how Zhao Lingxin would proceed.

"Of course, selected by the amount who donated the most took the position," Zhao Lingxin said indifferently. Behave like a tyrant. The mad King is incompetent. Sake of money and property able to use the coin to buy positions and also acted out of sight, not afraid of anything at all

"Your Majesty, is this going to be good?" Qin Bo said worriedly because Zhao Lingxin's concept was too stunned.

If it were someone else doing this, it would have been overthrown by the people for a long time.

"Don't worry, and Parliament is just a rubber stamp without any authority. Let these capitalists argue for the position. They will not be able to unite." Zhao Lingxin used a strategy of divide and rule.

If the capitalists argue Naturally a competition, They will not be able to get together. It was a great benefit for the empire.

Qin Bo saw that Zhao Lingxin had some thoughts that he had already thought. He didn't say anything anymore.

Zhao Lingxin picked up the gift item. Find a list of 250 supporters. He had elected who to be a council member, Cross out the list of people who give too few gifts.

"This gift still dares to send to me; they don't estimate themself." Zhao Lingxin struck out the list continuously if anyone came across this scene.

They must have determined that Zhao Lingxin was a foolish king.

The selection of the council members was simple and did not take long. Zhao Lingxin handed the paper back to Qin Bo.

"Send the Royal Secretariat Post a list of people who have been elected to the Imperial Parliament. "

"I will immediately take action now." Qin Bo quickly made his way to the order.

The next morning, the Secretariat announced a list of members of Parliament. Several newspapers have also reported this news. Many people in business who received the information were quick to search for their listings. Many have fulfilled their hopes, and many have been disappointed.

"Finally, I am a member of Parliament," the inaugural capitalists shouted with joy. Eventually, they were promoted to become the country's ruling class to sit in a council to discuss the direction of the empire.

But there were still many people whose faces were filled with disappointment.

"If I know this, It should be bribed more." They curse themselves in their stubborn hearts, sending too few gifts that they cannot attract the attention of the emperor.

The list of 250 members of Congress has been released. And some people even cannot accept certain truths.

At the Great Sun Family Mansion of the empire with great political and economic influence, especially Sun Wanping Youngest minister, the long future is the whole new generation prototype.

"This is impossible. How could this be possible?" Sun Yuan held the newspaper with trembling hands. Before collapsing, he sat down on a chair. His face was full of disappointment. His eyes were blank as if listening to some bad news.

"Father, don't be worried. Even if you are not a council member, Our Sun Clan still has a lot of power. You don't have to regret it." Sun Wanping comforted his severely disappointed father.

Sun Wanping was extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Lingxin. The Sun Clan paid much money. In the end, nothing came back. Sun Wanping was calculating the price of the spirit stone until he was crucified. Zhao Lingxin was extremely cruel. Not looking for an old relationship before, using this childhood friend to take away all the money, The emperor was ruthless.

"Zhao Lingxin didn't want to raise his position; why didn't he tell me from the beginning? I will never give up," Sun Wanping said in a displeased tone. He was about to head to the palace, but Sun Yuan had stopped it first.

"Sun Wanping, don't be impatient. This result is not your fault. It would be best if you did not hold the blame for him," Sun Yuan said.

"I can't accept it. The Sun Family paid a lot. But without the desired result, I absolutely cannot allow it," Sun Wanping cursed Zhao Lingxin.

"You calm down first. I have been elected to the council," Sun Yuan said.

"Father, what did you say?" Sun Wanping remained silent for a moment. He thinks that his ears are astringent; he cannot hear clearly. If his father has been elected to the council, Why do you make a depressed expression?

Sun Yuan saw what Sun Wanping's face said.

"Come here, come see this," Sun Yuan pointed to the top of the newspaper. Top of the list of 250 people Sun Wanping swept his gaze towards that location and found the word

"President of the National Assembly of the Empire, Gu Heng"
