"She... she kicked again!" Clithista shouted, a happy smile.
Asuna was busy running out of the garden, wiping the dust off her clothes, and Cynthia sat down with Cynthia.
After the three women were tossing and tossing, Clithista felt a little hungry: "Cynthia, your brother has returned, playing with the small clouse upstairs, you go up and call them down, let's prepare for dinner."
Cristian’s "brother" is Cynthia’s younger brother Adonis, who is eight years old and also studied at the school in Turui.
Cynthia "oh", got up and got ready to go upstairs, but saw a black dish on the wooden table next to him, curiously asked: "What is this?"
"This is your Andrea Auntie. According to your father's proposal, the meat dried with beef and salt, specially sent from Grummantum, let us taste the taste first," said Clithista.
Cynthia grabbed a small piece and took a bite: "Some hard."
She chewed it for a while, swallowed it and said: "The chew is long, the taste is good, it is salty, suitable for snacks."
"Your father is planning to use this meat as one of the soldiers' rations." Cynthia's inadvertent words made Christoya's eyes shine. She only cares about the taste. As for the excessive use of salt, she does not care. Since Davers has asked the people of the Dionysian School to come up with ways to improve the salt-salt method, the production of sea salt has increased greatly and the price of salt is extremely cheap.
Cynthia stuffed the whole piece of meat into the mouth and bypassed the garden.
On the other side of the garden there is a small altar, a stone statue of Argentine smiles, the stone statue is just one person tall, and the sculpture is vivid. After the marriage of Li Jim's Pearl, Grace, to Daves, she couldn't forget the time she used to be the priest of the goddess of hunting, even if Daves asked her to be the main sacrifice of the Temple of Hera. After obtaining her husband's consent, she built a small altar in the backyard of Argentine, but she did not expect Cynthia to become a believer in the goddess. Perhaps it is because the Greeks regard Altunis as the goddess of the moon, the night is her world, and the name "Cynthia" is the meaning of the moon. Naturally, there is a sense of closeness. So Cynthia prayed to Aljunis piously before entering the main building.
Asuna saw Cynthia enter the building and hesitated to say to Cly Stoia: "Madam, let's not wait... Waiting for Mrs. Grace to come back for dinner?"
Clithista stunned and said with a smile: "She wants to prepare for the wedding festival tomorrow, and it is estimated that she will be busy in the temple until late at night. We don't have to wait for her. With her sex, she won't care."
"What about the owner?"
"Don't wait. The Senate has been in a meeting for two days. I don't know when it will end. I blame the nobles and businessmen who made trouble in the square... and the Polluxs!" Listoya is a little annoyed.
.................................
"Respected veterans, not only in Turui, but also in the cities of Crimea, Picosis, Amendola, etc., there are many people who protest in the square. Please open the door and listen to their voices - - Listen, they are yelling, 'Celebrate the citizen assembly!'"
The passionate speech of Pollux was immediately interrupted by Antonios: "As far as I know, there are only a few people protesting in Turui and Crimea, and there is no 'majority' as you said! And, There is no such thing happening in Amendo Lara and Picosis!"
"Yes, as an Amendora, I can confirm that Antonios's words are true!" said Scombrus.
Polksis had expected someone to say this, and immediately sneered: "No voice, it does not mean that no one has any objections. Citizens just hide this dissatisfaction in their hearts and dare not vent them. It is true. Funny, their requirements can be said to be very simple, but not too much. Do we need to be so nervous? You must know that as long as the city-state established by the Greeks will have a citizen assembly! Even if time returns to the Wang Zheng era hundreds of years ago In the case of a king, the citizen assembly still exists! Only the city-state under the rule of the lord, because of fear of the people and suppression of the people, did not dare to have a citizen assembly, such as Syracuse."
Polksis said, turning to Daves, who was facing forward, asked with courage: "Excuse me, the consul, we... is our alliance ruled by the lord?!"
The words came out and the audience was shocked.
Daves was calm, as if he didn't know the words of Polissis pointing to him: "Of course not. The Dionysian Union is under the joint management of the elders of the Senate." Daves's faint discourse does not There is a hint of fire.
"So there is a provision in the law of Daionia that "prohibits the convening of a citizen assembly"?!" The courage of Polksis grew bigger and continued to be pursued.
"Of course not." Daphus still answered slowly.
"In this case, the people demanded that the Citizens' Congress be reasonable. I hope that the Senate will consider this matter carefully and not let the citizens disappoint!" Polluxs saw that Daves fell into the language trap he had constructed and took the opportunity to say aloud.
"Prüxus adults, holding a citizen assembly is not an easy task." Kunogolata said: "The situation in the Dionysian Union is very different from that of other Greek city-states. Our citizens are not concentrated in one city-state. But all the cities in the league, just calling them is a big problem that takes time and effort! In addition, the Diaonian citizens are not only Greeks, Lucalia, Brudy People account for a considerable amount. They don’t know what a citizen assembly is, and they have never participated in a citizen assembly. It’s not only that they will be overwhelmed by the citizens’ meeting, but they will also make the order of the citizen assembly into chaos and become a neighbor. Joke..."
The Kunogola Tower has a difficult time to hold a citizen conference in Dionia. In fact, there is a private idea in his mind: as the real power of the Dionysian Senate, he does not want the citizen assembly to be held because he is tired. In the past, in Turui, in order to be elected general, he had to please the citizens, attack the political opponents, etc., and do something that is against the heart. When he is elected, he will do anything, and if he is slightly careless, he may be forced by the political opponents to force the citizens to force them. It is not as good as it is now to be able to do things. It is only responsible for the alliance and Davers.
There are quite a few similar ideas with him, such as: Cornelus, Scamblas, etc., some of the veterans who have always served as the league's priorities.
"The people of Kunogorata are right! We don't care about any citizen assembly, we only have something to eat, a woman to sleep, and have enough to drink!" said Sedrum's pretentious grandfather. "Our Brutus people only believe in who is strong, who has a big fist, and who they serve!"
"The same is true of our Lucarians. The citizen assembly is too troublesome, we are not interested!" Hermon immediately said.
The other two forces of the Senate, Lukaria and Brudy, clearly opposed it, making Poluces’s face ugly, but he still did not intend to give up and continued:
It is difficult to hold a citizen assembly, but because of difficulties, we To give up, is this the style of our Dionys to do things! Building Turui - Laos Avenue to climb over the mountains and mountains, difficult, we have not been through a few years of hard work, finally built it!
Citizens have been hoping that the Citizens’ Congress has been held for a long time. If Dionia is facing the threat of survival at the beginning of its establishment, it has to unify the people’s minds and concentrate on defeating the strong enemies. Therefore, the Citizens’ Assembly, which spends a lot of time and energy, temporarily stops. This is completely understandable. But now that Diaonia is stable and prosperous, the people are rich and leisurely. As a Greek who has always had a strong political tradition of participating in the city state, the requirements of the Diaonian citizens for convening a citizen assembly will only be one year and one year later. More and more intense! As the most distinguished representative of the Diaonian citizens, you can hope that you can deeply understand this and make the right choices in time. Don’t wait until the citizens’ dissatisfaction is saved to a dangerous level. Make a decision in a hurry, so it is not good for the Senate and the Union of Dionia!
Politics's esoteric and implied words made many people in the room slightly discolored.
Davers looked at Poluses, thoughtfully.
"Now, everyone decides whether to pass the motion to convene a citizen assembly!" Ronald President Cornelus announced loudly.
As usual, the Legion veterans expressed their opposition, and the Lucanian veterans were the same. The real powers of most of the veterans did not agree. Most of the supporters of Pollux were unrecognized veterans. The veteran is mostly. But among those who are in favor, Davers sees Burkes, Petalu, and even the Danish Navy Commander En Anilus...
Davers picked up his eyes and faintly flashed a cold light in his eyes.
.................................
From the Senate, it was late, and the weather in the spring was cold, but Bolton, who was worn by Pollux, was basically soaked, which was the result of a cold sweat that was scared when he asked Davers.
Although his bill was once again vetoed, Polissis now has confidence because he sees an increase in the number of people who support him.
Davers is no different, the next time... he is excited to think that the pace at his feet has become powerful, and he has become more loud with his peers.
"I don't know what the reason is. This timid guy is getting more and more crazy now!" Marji stood on the steps outside the Senate, and looked at the Politics in the distance with agitation, and then wore some worries. Foss said: "Adult, can't let him go on like this again!"
