Speaker Long's gaze was calm and leisurely. His calm expression even contained a trace of compassion that made Tan Dongbang tremble.
Tan Dongbang had never been so panicked ever since he entered the political arena.
He had always been calm and collected, gentle and refined.
But at some point in time, his image had completely disappeared. What was left for the people of the nation, and even the entire world, was his ugly behavior in bed …
If he lost the position of Prime Minister this time, he would never be able to make a comeback.
So he had no other choice but to fight with his life on the line.
Tan Dongbang sneered. "Speaker Long, why aren't you saying anything? Haven't you thought of an excuse to tarnish my reputation yet? "
Speaker Long didn't expect Tan Dongbang to throw caution to the wind and openly challenge him in front of everyone and on TV.
Special Assistant Zhuang saw this from below the stage, and his expression also darkened.
It was public humiliation for Speaker Long to be questioned by Tan Dongbang like this on stage.
Even if there was evidence, how could he say it at this time and place?
He was extremely anxious and wanted to help Speaker Long out of the situation, but now that everyone was watching and there were so many cameras pointed at them, no matter what method he used to warn Tan Dongbang, Tan Dongbang would only use it to point the finger at Speaker Long and say that he was trying to "manipulate the situation from behind the scenes."
No matter how he thought about it, he could only use the law to shut Tan Dongbang's mouth and shut the mouths of everyone who was trying to stir up trouble.
Special Assistant Zhuang quickly said to Gu Nianzhi, "Stay here and keep an eye on things. Call me if there's anything. I'm going out for a bit."
He went to the small conference room next to the large conference hall and took out his phone book to call the Senate's legal advisors one by one.
In the end, whether it was the senior legal advisor or the junior legal advisor, none of them were willing to speak up.
Everyone had different reasons, but the result was the same: they all rejected Special Assistant Zhuang's suggestion.
Several legal advisors even said, "As a citizen, Prime Minister Tan has the right to know. If Speaker Long doesn't want to lose his credibility in front of the entire nation, he must answer Prime Minister Tan's question. "
Special Assistant Zhuang was so angry that he didn't know what to do. After thinking for a long time, he thought of Cai Shengnan.
Not only was she the future chief legal advisor that Speaker Long had in mind, but she was also Tan Dongbang's niece. With this level of kinship, it should be easier to talk to her, right?
Special Assistant Zhuang thought about it and immediately called Cai Shengnan. "Lawyer Cai, can you please persuade Mr. Tan to talk to him tomorrow? I suppose you're watching TV and know what's going on? "
Cai Shengnan was indeed watching television, and she was watching television with her father, Cai Sumin.
She and Cai Sumin were both happy to see something like this happen in the parliament building.
Asking her to shut Tan Dongbang up?
That was impossible. He was her biological uncle. He had to give her a corresponding benefit before she would go against her biological uncle.
However, she couldn't afford to offend Speaker Long either.
If she offended Speaker Long, how was she going to survive in the Huaxia Empire in the future?
She was going to be the council's chief legal advisor.
Therefore, she had an idea and tactfully said, "Special Assistant Zhuang, I want to help you, but my relationship with Mr. Tan as a private legal advisor hasn't been terminated. I still have a contractual relationship with him, so I can't betray my client."
"Oh?" Special Assistant Zhuang became even more anxious. "Lawyer Cai, didn't you say you wanted to come to the Senate as a legal advisor? Speaker Long also appreciates you, so you … "
Cai Shengnan smiled confidently and said very warmly, "I've also been looking forward to coming to the Senate to be Speaker Long's chief legal advisor, but I haven't seen the document appointing me. How about this, as long as Special Assistant Zhuang can give me a word and give me the appointment letter of the chief legal advisor after today's live broadcast ends, I'll go to the Senate now and help Speaker Long out. "
She was seizing the opportunity to "ask for an exorbitant price."
She dared to ask for the appointment letter of the "chief legal advisor" just by asking for her help!
If you're so capable, why don't you go to heaven?!
Special Assistant Zhuang was so angry that he hung up the phone. His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot as he angrily sat next to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi saw that Special Assistant Zhuang was as angry as a frog after going out to make a phone call, so she quickly brought him a cup of coffee. "Have some coffee to calm yourself down."
Special Assistant Zhuang looked up to see Gu Nianzhi and couldn't help complaining to her. "Nianzhi, do you law students all like to take advantage of the situation so much?"
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
How was she supposed to answer this?
She could only smile sheepishly. "Not really. Many law students don't take advantage of the situation. They only want to uphold the justice in their hearts."
"Justice? I'm afraid it's not as important as their own fame and fortune! " Special Assistant Zhuang sighed and pointed to the stage. "Nianzhi, look, Speaker Long is speechless because of Tan Dongbang's words. If we don't talk about it, Tan Dongbang definitely won't let this topic go. "
On the stage, Speaker Long looked at Tan Dongbang for a while and said, "If Mr. Tan has any objections, we can discuss them in detail after today's election results are announced."
"No! You must make it clear now! "Tan Dongbang stood up agitatedly." I can't let you all bury the truth! I also won't accept any 'under-the-table manipulation' results! "
As expected, Tan Dongbang was already talking about "under-the-table manipulation" before Special Assistant Zhuang could "remind" him.
Gu Nianzhi frowned and said quietly, "Then we have to make him shut up. What about the Senate's legal advisors? Don't tell me there isn't a single one … "
She knew that Speaker Long wanted to hire legal advisors, but the Senate should have had legal advisors before. It was impossible that there wasn't a single one.
"Of course there is." Special Assistant Zhuang said with a bitter expression. "I went out just now to look for them. I called all of them, but they wouldn't pick up … "
They truly had their concerns.
Tan Dongbang had hinted to them that he would still be elected this time.
And the news these people heard from their own channels was that Tan Dongbang was leading in the votes. How could they know that the situation had already changed?
It could only be said that Yin Shixiong's secrecy and "smokescreen" were too good.
He had been instructed by Speaker Long and General Ji to release some false information to the public. He wanted to see who was still hesitant and trying to have a foot in both boats.
These people had no principles or bottom lines, so they were exactly the kind of people Speaker Long wanted to remove from the Senate.
Gu Nianzhi listened to Special Assistant Zhuang's complaints and hesitated before volunteering with a red face. "Special Assistant Zhuang, if you think it's possible, do you need me to come on stage and help Speaker Long out?"
"You?" Special Assistant Zhuang looked at Gu Nianzhi with surprise. "Nianzhi, it's not that I'm looking down on you, but this matter requires very advanced legal knowledge and political literacy to resolve. Only knowing the law and only knowing politics won't be able to help Speaker Long out. "
The legal advisors employed by the Senate should have been able to do the job, but they were all calculating their own interests and were unwilling to offend the future Prime Minister, so there was nothing he could do.
Special Assistant Zhuang didn't study law. At that moment, he even wanted to call Special Assistant Yang, who was on "leave," over to help Speaker Long out.
However, Gu Nianzhi could tell that Speaker Long didn't need anyone to help him out. He clearly had a card up his sleeve.
However, she had to admit that Tan Dongbang's actions were a bit outrageous. Speaker Long's awkward appearance on the podium made Gu Nianzhi feel pity for him.
Also, she was worried about what if Tan Dongbang "made a comeback."
Although the possibility was very low, who knew?
You couldn't guess the minds of the voters. You wouldn't understand no matter how you tried.
Gu Nianzhi also felt uneasy when she thought about the results of the American election this time.
No, she couldn't give Tan Dongbang a chance to make a comeback. Even if he did, she had to suppress him!
Gu Nianzhi grabbed Special Assistant Zhuang's arm. "Let me go. Even if I say something wrong, you can go up and help him out again. Just say I'm an intern. It's fine even if I say something wrong! "
"Can you really do it?" Special Assistant Zhuang was tempted because he really had no other choice. Perhaps Speaker Long truly admired Gu Nianzhi and was grooming her as his successor.
Special Assistant Zhuang swore that as long as Gu Nianzhi completely suppressed Tan Dongbang this time, he would definitely recommend Gu Nianzhi to Speaker Long to be the chief legal advisor!
As for those experienced legal advisors and Cai Shengnan, the great American lawyer who only knew how to curry favor, they all had to step aside!
Gu Nianzhi stood up with a serious expression. "I can't let him be arrogant anymore. I'm going to attack him."
