The next day, the location was still the Human Palace. This was the third day of the Human Race's court meeting (Normally, court meetings were not so frequent, once every three days was considered a diligent king). The ministers were a little tired after getting up early for three days in a row, but they had no choice but to come today. After all, it was such an important event, and everyone was paying close attention to it.
As the court meeting approached, the ministers in the hall of the palace had basically all arrived. Li Huailin arrived at the entrance of the palace relatively early today. As soon as he arrived, Li Huailin saw a familiar face waiting for him at the entrance.
"Maccon," Li Huailin waved his hand and called out to Maccon, the Deputy Marshal of the Second Division, who was waiting at the entrance.
"Marshal!" Maccon immediately came over. Originally, he was waiting for orders at the camp of the Second Division. In fact, he also knew about what happened in the main city, so he waited at the camp for orders from Li Huailin. However, Li Huailin did not come, and instead, he waited for the report that the incident of the First Division had been successfully resolved. Not long after, Maccon received another surprising news. That was, Li Huailin was going to take over as the commander of the First Division, and was going to promote him to the commander of the Second Division. This made him unable to wait any longer. Last night, Maccon came to the main city, but he did not find Li Huailin, so he could only wait for Li Huailin in the morning, and meet with Li Huailin before the court meeting.
"Oh, you know everything?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, Marshal," Maccon immediately said. "Marshal, is this really good? Are you really going to the First Division? "
"Hey, isn't it good to give you a promotion?" Li Huailin said.
"No, Marshal, the Second Division can't do without you," Maccon said. "And I don't think I am capable enough to take the position of Marshal."
"You are much better than me." Li Huailin patted Maccon's shoulder.
"General, you must be joking. I can't compare to you at all," Maccon said.
"You see, I'm basically not in the barracks, but the 2nd Division hasn't encountered any major problems so far. Do you still have to doubt your own abilities? Trust me, it won't be a problem. " Li Huailin said, "I'm pushing you to the top in this court meeting, so you have to fight for it. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Marshal …" McCann thought for a while and followed Li Huailin's order out of habit.
"Okay, let's go in." After saying that, Li Huailin walked into the palace hall. McCain followed behind Li Huailin. It was easy to see the relationship between them.
Almost everyone in the palace hall had arrived. Li Huailin looked around and saw that Kartheros had arrived as well. Compared to yesterday's meeting with Queen Marina, Kartheros was slightly more confident. It was not only because of the things in his hands, but also because Marina didn't want Li Huailin to control the 1st and 2nd Division. Therefore, Kartheros felt that he still had a lot of hope today.
"His Royal Highness is here." With the voice of a guard, Anthony officially appeared on the stage. All the ministers immediately quieted down. The court meeting was about to begin.
"Okay, everyone has worked hard." Anthony was also a little tired because he really had to think about this matter. He consulted many people's opinions and finally made a decision. "Today's main topic is about the appointment of the acting head of the 1st Division. Now everyone knows the situation of the 1st Division. There are more than a dozen non-commissioned officers waiting for trial in the barracks. The 1st Division is still in a chaotic situation, so we need to elect a person who can solve the current problem. So we must settle this matter today."
After Anthony said that, he looked down and continued, "The current situation is that there are two candidates. One is the Duke of Aquitaine, and the other is the Deputy Marshal of the 1st Legion, Carcylos. Everyone is clear about their situation, so I would like to ask for your opinion first. Who do you support to be the acting legion commander of the 1st Legion?"
Although Anthony had a rough decision in his mind, he still decided to ask for the opinions of the ministers. After all, this was a very important matter.
The ministers looked left and right. In fact, they had already made a decision, but no matter what, this matter would offend people, so they didn't dare to take the lead. At this moment, everyone looked at the head of the civil officials, Prime Minister Mach. It was best for him to take the lead.
"I have something to say." As expected, Mach took a step forward and stepped forward. Kartheros heaved a sigh of relief. Of course, he had already received the news that Anthony had summoned Prime Minister Mach to the palace last night to discuss this matter. Kartheros was also sure that Queen Marina was present at that time. Of course, in this case, he would definitely be promoted to the acting head of the 1st Division.
"Prime Minister, please speak." On the other side, Anthony nodded. Of course, Mach had already discussed it with him. Letting him speak up was just to set an example and see if there were any objections. If there were no objections, it would be approved.
"After listening to the words of the Duke of Aquitaine yesterday, I went back and thought about it carefully. Indeed, I feel that the Duke of Aquitaine's words are reasonable. No matter what, Earl Kartheros didn't realize that more than a dozen of his subordinates had betrayed him. This is really a big mistake. Therefore, I feel that with Earl Kartheros's current ability, it is really difficult for him to be the head of the 1st Division. Therefore, I feel that the Duke of Aquitaine should temporarily be the head of the 1st Division," Mach said.
"What?" Karzilos was stunned. "No, Prime Minister …"
"Sorry, Earl Kartheros, this isn't just my own judgment." Mach turned to Kartheros and said.
In the eyes of others, Mach seemed to be saying that everyone thought the same way, but Kartheros could understand that Mach meant that both the Emperor and Queen had the same opinion.
Sure enough, as soon as Mach finished speaking, Anthony nodded. "Yes, Prime Minister's words are reasonable. What do you all think?"
"We also think that Prime Minister's words are reasonable." An official immediately stood up and said. Of course, he was Mach's loyal subordinate. Of course, he would immediately stand up and support whatever Mach said.
Since there was a person who stood up to support Mach, of course, there were more people who stood up later. A large group of officials immediately stood up to support Mach's judgment. Not only did they support Mach, but they also didn't want to annoy Li Huailin. In fact, there was a big gap between the candidates on both sides. Li Huailin was the most powerful minister in the empire. Although Kartheros's position was also very high, there was still a gap between him and Li Huailin. Comparing the two sides, of course, everyone knew who they shouldn't offend. Therefore, most of the officials basically sided with Li Huailin.
"I see." Anthony nodded. Of course, he also trusted Li Huailin. In fact, the truth had never changed. The reason why he couldn't immediately make a decision yesterday was mainly because of other people's opinions. First, it was the opinions of the ministers, and then, the Queen had been reminding him recently that Li Huailin's power was a little too big. Therefore, he also paid attention to it.
But the situation yesterday was a little different. In fact, for some reason, the Queen was very supportive of Li Huailin becoming the commander of the first division. Besides her personal support, she also persuaded Prime Minister Mach. The result of the discussion between the three of them was to let Li Huailin be the acting commander. Therefore, this matter was actually decided last night. Today, they were just going through the motions to see if there were any objections from the ministers.
"In that case, it has been decided that the Duke of Aquitaine will temporarily be the commander of the first division. He will be responsible for all the affairs of the first division," Anthony said. "Wilham's matter …"
"I'll be in charge of interrogating them while I'm at it," Li Huailin suddenly stepped forward and said.
"This …" Anthony was a little stunned.
"I am willing to handle this matter together with the Duke of Aquitaine," Prime Minister Mach suddenly said.
"Well, that's fine." Anthony nodded. Li Huailin and Mach should be able to handle this matter well. Since it involved his father, he had to stay away for a while.
"So, Mach." Anthony also saw Mach standing beside Li Huailin. "You will temporarily be the commander of the second division. Is that okay with you?"
"Yes, Your Highness," Mach said. "I have no problem with that."
"Okay." Anthony nodded.
"Your Highness." At this moment, Carcyrus finally reacted. "Your Highness, this …"
"By the way, Count Carcyrus." Anthony nodded. "And you, although you are not very suitable to take over the position of commander at this time, you have made contributions before, so you should stay in the first division."
"Yes, yes." Li Huailin said with a smile, "Although I've become a corps commander, there are still a lot of problems that I need help with. Although Count Karcylos doesn't have much ability, he's at least a member of the first corps.
"It seems that Count Carcyrus has really offended the Duke of Aquitaine," the ministers next to him whispered.
"This … Your Highness …" Carcyrus's face darkened. Just when he was about to continue, Anthony waved his hand to stop him.
"By the way, the queen has mentioned that the celebration banquet cannot be delayed. Although something happened, the matter of rewarding the meritorious soldiers must be carried out immediately." Anthony said, "How about this, after the matter with Wilham is over, immediately hold the celebration banquet."
