Oops, overslept!
Chapter 124
Unbeknownst to the general public, the resignation of Senator Collins is the beginning of a great cleansing for the Federation.
Although this time it seems that the father and son of Collins and Iolo conspired against the Melved family, after the trial, in the in-depth investigations continued by both the government and the military, all their past actions All exposed one by one.
And the secrets dug up are not just those that Cecil is currently investigating.
At least, in the past few decades, with the help of Iolo's ability to disguise, Collins has placed his own people in various departments.
"It's not that I can't find it, I just don't want to find it."
As a businessman, Cecil did not intend to send himself into this political vortex. He only needed to make sure that Collins and Iolo would eventually get the punishment they deserved, and others would naturally do the rest.
As for how many people will lose their officials and titles after this, it has nothing to do with him to be in jail.
For this matter, Marshal Xiao En also had the same meaning, and he did not want him to continue to participate, so he specially sent a communication to remind him.
The matter of Collins is too deep. They have arranged it for so many years. If they hadn't bumped into Zu Yu, a monster who is out of common sense, then three years later, under their arrangement, he would be the next president of the council. belonged.
And if he is successfully elected, Collins' next plan must be to suppress the military.
If the chairman of the parliament is changed, Marshal Sean is not worried about whether the other party will suppress the military department. Basically, this is probably what all the leaders of the parliament will do.
But Collins is different. He has a lot of military secrets in his hands, and there are a lot of black materials-even the military has scum. Thanks to them, Marshal Sean caught a lot of them this time People—if these black materials are not released, it is his excuse to threaten those people, and once they are released, the credibility of the military department will definitely drop immediately.
No matter which one it is, Marshal Xiao En doesn't want to see it.
After Collins' public trial is over, this matter has nothing to do with them, and the most important thing for the Melved family now is to discharge the three hospitalized people.
Among them, the little griffin is naturally the most impatient.
Although living in the hospital and being able to be with Zu Yu every day is a very happy thing for the little griffin, it still misses its three little friends very much.
During the days when they were in the hospital, Paddy Blanche and Lailai also came to visit with their parents a few times, and even played with the little griffin in the garden of the hospital, but they didn't have as much fun as they did in the manor. .
And after they go home this time, there will be a small banquet in the manor, and Cecil will invite those who have helped them during this time to express their gratitude—no matter what the other party's reason is for doing so.
At the same time, he also invited some cubs from other families, including Xiao Yujiao and Little Pegasus, whom Zu Yu hadn't seen for a long time.
They were also three cubs that Zu Yu took care of for a period of time when they were born. Zu Yu had to admit that because it was the first cub to hatch, and the little griffin that he had been taking care of for a long time received most of his care and attention. Love, but the remaining two cubs, he actually misses them more or less, but because they don't have any identities that can be approached on the surface, Zu Yu can only choose to ignore them.
And such a small cub can't remember anything at all. When they met at the banquet last time, the two cubs didn't think of him and the little griffin at all. The short-term memory of being together has disappeared with the passage of time. .
Even though he would not recognize himself even if he saw them again, Zu Yu still looked forward to seeing them.
When the day of the banquet arrived, the "injuries" on Zu Yu's body had almost healed, and the guests who came to the banquet saw a radiant young man.
Of course, if you look carefully, you can still see the tension in his eyes and a trace of unhidden sadness.
In other words, the entire Melved Manor was shrouded in this sadness. Even the little griffin, which looked lively and cute in the past, seemed not so lively today.
Thinking of the young master who unfortunately passed away, everyone can understand this.
Little Griffin: Chirp, chirp, chirp? (I was just a little nervous when I saw too many people, so I was not afraid!)
—— Zu Yu, who is a playwright, followed Cecil, and was in a hurry.
His excellent memory allows him to easily recognize the origin of each guest. Those who have met him before and who have given him a gift have all received his polite and unobtrusive greeting. Everyone is not stingy with making friends with the young man who will be the "Madame" of the next head of the Melved family.
Of course, these guests who came today did not forget to send a sentence of "sorry and change".
They didn't say a word, the smile on Zu Yu's face froze, everyone saw that he was really sad about the cub's death, but in fact, Zu Yu was just in a complicated mood.
They were saying condolences to the person involved, if he didn't know that these people didn't know the inside story, Zu Yu would almost feel that they were cursing him.
Didn't you look at Cecil next to you, a little bit tense?
Zu Yu is now particularly looking for an opportunity to sneak away.
But today they are the organizers of the banquet, it is impossible to slip away, so they can only continue to entertain the guests with a stiff face.
But after all the guests arrived, including Marshal Sean, Cecil still found a chance for Zu Yu to let him rest for a while as an excuse to see how the cubs were getting along.
Zu Yu simply ran away.
In the eyes of others, they only thought he was nervous, and some people secretly commented that this young man was born in the countryside and had never seen the world. No matter how well he pretended, he couldn't afford such a scene.
"What are you worried about? There are only a handful of banquets held by Melved's house every year. Even if he can't afford it, why not use Mr. Melved? For his sake, who will care about this young man's gains and losses?"
These words seemed to be speaking for Zu Yu, but the casual attitude of the lady who spoke revealed her disapproval of Zu Yu.
"But how long can it last? Wait for that one to be like his father... sooner or later this family will..."
The content of the message, which was deliberately hidden, was heard by the surrounding ladies who were chatting with her, but it was blunt and almost said that Cecil would die soon, and the family would also be finished.
A lady who was on good terms with her reminded her in a low voice: "You should restrain yourself, this is the Melved Manor."
Although everyone tacitly thinks that Cecil may not have a good life for a few years-although his father survived to be two hundred years old, he did not start to show signs of genetic collapse until he was almost 80 years old. Cecil, something went wrong early on as an adult.
And the outside world also believes that Cecil's adoption of cubs from his mother's natal family is a sign that he is about to fail.
Everyone is waiting to see how long this one can last.
The noble lady who spoke first said disapprovingly: "What are you afraid of, don't you think so?"
The ladies who were chatting with her looked at each other, although they also thought so, but they dare not say that about the master in other people's homes.
If the master heard this, it would be impolite and enmity.
The result is really what to think.
"Ladies, I wonder if you need some fresh fruit?"
A slightly aged voice suddenly broke in.
The noble lady who spoke ill of the master was startled, and turned her head to see the butler who had worked in Melved's house for almost 200 years and whose status was only lower than the master of this house.
The butler was holding a small bowl of yoghurt-drenched fruit. The inside was the right size, and the pieces of fruit that fit into the mouth were cut into small animals. It looked like it was for cubs.
The butler didn't bring the fruit alone. He was followed by several servants, all holding the same thing in their hands.
The way he stood behind them with a smile at this time can be said to have frightened everyone.
No one knew how long the housekeeper had stood behind them and what he had heard.
——No, he must have heard it, otherwise why did he specifically ask them if they would eat the fruit for the cubs.
[Eat something to stop your nonsense. 】
After understanding the meaning of the steward's words, the face of the lady who said something she shouldn't have turned pale with fright. She was so indifferent to what the other people said just now, but in fact, she just thought that the master would not know at all. It's just a quick tongue.
If the housekeeper told Cecil about this, the consequences would not be something she, a woman who was a member of a first-class family but actually had no status in the family, could bear.
The other women were also flustered, but they didn't say anything they shouldn't say, and even persuaded her, so compared to the frightened noble ladies, they were still calm.
The housekeeper didn't really want them to eat fruit—it was for Master Lun and her cubs—seeing that they were silent, he nodded reservedly, then turned and left.
The few people who stayed in the same place glanced at each other, and finally found their own reasons to leave, leaving only the shameless lady alone, worried and frightened.
Let's stay away from such people in the future, even if their family background is better than theirs, so what, the brain is the most important thing.
"Al, where have you been?"
When Zu Yu came to look for the cubs, he saw only the servants who were in charge of taking care of them, but did not see the housekeeper. He was a little surprised why he was willing to leave at this time. The housekeeper liked to be with the cubs the most.
The butler raised the bowl in his hand: "The newly made yogurt in the kitchen, would Master Zu Yu want some?"
Zu Yu shook his head: "No need." Although he also likes to eat this, but it's better to forget about grabbing food with the cubs.
Moreover, the snacks prepared for the cubs are not as delicious as those for adults. For example, yogurt and fruit soup, he likes iced ones, but the cubs can only eat at room temperature or slightly warmed, which is not to his liking.
"Then can you feed these two young masters for me? I'm afraid our number is not enough."
He pointed to two of the cubs who had gathered around because they saw the snacks.
"And this bowl of dim sum is still too much for them, it should be just right for the two young masters to eat together."
It's Xiao Yujiao and Xiao Pegasus.
I haven't seen them for a while, and they are much bigger than at the last banquet. Little Pegasus has turned into a half-meter-tall foal, and Xiao Yujiao, which was thinner than chopsticks when it was born, now has a clothes drying pole So thick.
Zu Yu blinked and showed a smile: "Of course, I am very happy."
But in the end, Zu Yu had to feed three cubs.
The little griffin could not feed Zu Yu, but that was under the condition that he would not feed other cubs. Now suddenly two cubs not including himself were being fed by Zu Yu, how could it bear it? !
So I couldn't help but say that when Zu Yu picked up Xiao Yujiao and Xiao Tianma, the little griffin abandoned his poor butler grandpa and rushed over, tweeting that it wanted to be fed by Zu Yu.
The butler reluctantly brought another serving of yogurt and fruit to the small table in front of Zu Yu.
Zu Yu couldn't do anything about the three cubs whose size was beyond the capacity of his arms, so he could only choose to put them on the sofa and feed them one by one in turn.
Looking at those little mouths waiting to be fed, Zu Yu suddenly had the feeling of returning to when they just hatched.
The author has something to say: Zu Yu (frustrated): My cub, he is no longer my cub.
Cecil (probing): ...have one?
Zu Yu (stares): Get out, I want to give birth to you!
