Lian Chengze decided to go all out and published all the emails he had received.
As soon as the email was released, the front of the palace was quickly surrounded by reporters. The news that Helian Zhen would succeed the queen, which was released just in the morning, became the fuse.
Everyone and all the media were waiting for Helian Zhen's reaction and asking the same question: Was Helian Zhen, who had been deposed as a princess by Helian Lan herself and had caused such unbearable news, really qualified to be the new queen?
In addition to the royal palace, the Prime Minister's residence and office and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs where Lee Chi-won worked were also surrounded by reporters, followed by Lee Chi-won's wife's workplace and the kindergarten where Lee Chi-won's son was attending.
Since Lee became prime minister, he has been self-disciplined and has prided himself on being clean, but he has caused the biggest scandal in history.
As the most conservative and special existence on the Blue Water Star, the women of the royal family are admired by countless people. Their loyal and virtuous image has always been deeply rooted in people's hearts, especially the queen and princess as representatives of the royal family, who have strict requirements in terms of emotions. Helian Zhen escaped when she got pregnant before marriage, but now she can't avoid it.
At that time, Helian Zhen was still a princess, a princess who said that she had a miscarriage after a secret marriage. After nearly a year, the final truth was revealed. She had an affair with a married man and was pregnant, and threatened the married man, and this married man was the prime minister's eldest grandson.
This is the biggest scandal on Planet Water.
The email was released only two hours later, but the impact it caused was great enough. Regardless of whether the news was true or false, Lee Chih-yuan was suspended two hours after the release. Prime Minister Lee was facing the biggest difficulty since he took office. In just two hours, he did not have to resign, but he lost many of his powers all at once.
The power of the Prime Minister has always been great, which is beneficial in many cases, but also often more beneficial than harmful. Within two hours after the scandal was released, the Secretary of Interstellar Affairs quickly took back many of the powers and responsibilities that originally belonged to the Secretary of Interstellar Affairs with the help of Ishigami Kashiwa, and successfully broke the situation where the Prime Minister was the only one in power.
In just two hours, amid the excited discussions among netizens, the top leaders of the Blue Water Planet have experienced struggles that ordinary people could never imagine.
In the days that followed, the careful people of Blue Water discovered that the Secretary of Interstellar Affairs appeared in front of the media more and more frequently, almost the same as the Prime Minister.
They discussed it for a few sentences and then didn't take it seriously, but gradually they discovered that the Secretary of Interstellar Affairs was also very important.
Of course, this is all later.
On the day of the incident on January 5, 3703 AD, three hours after the news was released, Lian Chengze and Lian Huier had an absolute advantage and took advantage of the situation to push Lian Huier forward again. Compared with Helian Zhen, Lian Huier's efforts had not been in vain and she instantly gained a lot of support.
In such a favorable situation, when Lian Chengze and Lian Huier were about to make persistent efforts to take down Helian Zhen and make her never stand up again, Helian Zhen finally launched a counterattack. Just like Lian Chengze's email news was a fatal blow to Helian Zhen and the Li family, Helian Zhen's counterattack was enough to deal a fatal blow to Lian Chengze and Lian Huier.
Lian Chengze and Lian Huier were stunned for a long time when they saw the video on the news. They couldn't figure out why their secret conversation between father and daughter was recorded and released.
They were originally besieging Helian Zhen, and when they were about to bring Helian Zhen down, they could not save themselves just by hearing a piece of news.
After watching the video, Helian Zhen responded directly to what was said in the news for the first time, and Lian Huier almost gritted her teeth.
"...I just wanted to carry on my mother's last wish and let the royal family continue to play a small role, but I never thought that I would become a roadblock to some people with great ideals and be treated like this..." In the video, the thin Helian Zhen had red eyes and was holding on firmly. "I don't want to cry out for injustice, nor do I want to make more excuses, nor do I want to say how much impact the news had on my life in just a few hours. I only want to say one thing to my cousin and the prince behind her."
"I will not give up my throne to let you succeed. I will do everything I can to stop you from carrying out that ridiculous and crazy plan!" The struggle between Prime Minister Helian Zhenli and Lian Chengze and others has entered a white-hot stage. To sum it up, it can only be said that it is a dog-eat-dog situation and no one is clean.
Zhu Jin watched this farce coldly and found it extremely absurd.
"It's also the first time I know that a TV series can have such a far-reaching impact." Zhu Jin looked at Fu Ling's face full of sarcasm and couldn't help shaking her head. "It's also the first time I know that no matter what era, people's pursuit of power remains unchanged."
Many people know about the conflicts between the army represented by Lian Chengze and the ruling authorities, and understand that the army wants to get rid of the interference of the ruling authorities. It is understandable that they want to strengthen the military power, after all, strength represents everything.
However, it is incomprehensible that while militarizing power, it is also class-based, making the military supreme, modernizing things from the feudal period, and dreaming of establishing a military empire.
The times are constantly progressing, but Lian Chengze wants to make them go backwards. He discusses with Lian Huier how to expand the queen's power if she becomes queen, and how to establish a new political system with military and imperial power as the core, step by step, to create a new era of imperial power similar to the ones in TV dramas.
After the unguarded private conversation between Lian Chengze and Lian Huier, father and daughter, was made public, the impact it caused can be imagined. Because of this video, Lian Chengze and Lian Huier's advantage instantly turned into a disadvantage, and they were scolded as crazy by countless people.
Compared to letting the scandalous Helian Zhen become the new queen, an ambitious and dangerous person like Lian Huier is more repulsive.
Fuling naturally resisted Lian Huier, "Fortunately this matter was exposed, otherwise if Lian Chengze, the old fox, slowly managed it, he might really succeed."
Zhu Jin couldn't help but shake her head after hearing this. Although she knew that their plan was ridiculous, she also knew that human desires were unlimited, especially when it came to supreme power and status.
Although everyone is now scolding Lian Chengze and Lian Huier for their wild ideas, deep down, who hasn't longed for the supreme power and position? Since Lian Chengze dared to think and discussed it with Lian Huier so confidently, it must have been recognized by the military leaders before.
People who are already in high positions are completely defenseless when faced with greater power.
Fuling looked at Zhu Jin's expression and changed the subject, "Okay, let's not think about those bad things. Anyway, it's okay now that it's announced. Will your leg be healed by then?"
"It will take time to verify whether it is good or bad after it is announced." Zhu Jin didn't think so. "Now the situation forces everyone to be on the same side, but in the future, maybe many people will take the initiative to find Lian Chengze and Lian Huier."
"That's impossible... What era is this?" Fuling's face turned bitter instantly.
"How is it impossible? Weren't you obsessed with time-travel novels some time ago, where you went back to ancient times to call the wind and rain..." After "Historical Dynasties", many similar TV dramas were released, which also led to countless literary works. The time-travel trend was very popular, and many people of this era suddenly returned to the era in the TV dramas and showed their talents. Countless people became emperors and dominated the world.
Such novels have become the favorites of countless people, Fuling being one of them. It also illustrates from one aspect that everyone has a yearning for supreme power in their hearts.
Many people read these novels just for the sake of reading them, for the sake of pleasure, but apart from many people, what about a small number of people? They may not read such novels, but they will be moved and act for the supreme position.
Lian Chengze and Lian Huier can think of it, they can't help but think of it, desire can drive everything! What Zhu Jin thought of, Fuling also thought of, and was silent for a while, thinking about it and then said, "Although it is so, the times are progressing, and we can't go back, so we shouldn't bother ourselves with trivial matters."
Zhu Jin smiled and nodded.
"When can you walk again? Have you recovered well? What about Chonglou?" Fuling asked again.
"…I'm recovering OK. I should be able to leave soon." Zhu Jin hesitated and replied. Her leg injury was not serious and she had almost recovered. "Zhonglou has something to deal with."
"Get well soon." Fuling looked at Zhu Jin, who was smiling the same as usual, and didn't know how to persuade her.
Zhu Jin had returned to normal since Helian Lan's funeral, except that she started wearing white clothes every day and stopped eating meat. But she still didn't shed a single tear.
Zhu Jin still can't let it go, and everyone who knows her knows it, but no one can do anything.
If this continues, it will definitely be harmful to Zhu Jin's health.
Chonglou and Fuling said that it would be good to let Zhujin cry, but Fuling had no way to deal with Zhujin.
"The coronation ceremony will be tomorrow..." Zhu Jin didn't say anything, so Fuling found something to say, "Helian Zhen is really shameless..." Helian Zhen did a good job in protesting her injustice. Although she was still surrounded by scandals, she had not really lost her qualifications to succeed the queen. It seemed that she meant that the coronation ceremony would still be held.
"Let her ascend the throne. Anyway... their commotion has long lost its original meaning and is just a joke." Zhu Jin glanced at Fuling, "Besides, the most lively event tomorrow will not be the coronation ceremony." So many people were involved in this commotion, and there was actually no real meaning for Helian Zhen to persist in the end.
Now, no matter how they struggle, everyone just watches and watches. The respect that they had for the queen and the royal family has slowly disappeared.
"What's the most exciting thing tomorrow? Is there anything I don't know?" Fuling's eyes immediately lit up.
"You'll know tomorrow." Zhu Jin smiled.
Before Fuling could ask more questions, Zhujin's cell phone rang. Chonglou contacted her and told her a piece of news.
Qu Mai died. After being in a coma for a few days, he never woke up and died instantly.
Zhu Jin fell silent for a moment.
Everything started with Qu Mai. Now Qu Mai is dead, but no one knows how long his influence will last.
At the beginning, the hacker who had been helping Helian Zhen was most likely Qu Mai. Now, whether it was Helian Zhen's emails, the video of Lian Chengze and his daughter, or even the things that had not been found and threatened Su Mu, they were all inseparable from Qu Mai's shadow. No one knew how much he had left behind, and even Fuling could not find out thoroughly.
Zhu Jin knew that all this was what Qu Mai said was "arranged".
