Flirt [Interstellar]

Chapter 89: Chapter 89

Views:

Whether it is Qin Nuo's choice of spouse or marriage, it is all under the attention of the people of the empire. They would rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go. They are unwilling to let go of even the slightest clue and discuss the matter every day.

Because Qin Nuo himself represents the strong standard of the empire that has persisted for many years and maintained the current social structure. There is no need to consider other factors. From Qin Nuo's perspective, he seems to have everything.

There were even voices in the early years suggesting that the concubine system could be relaxed for situations like Qin Nuo's, such as changing the four concubines that were originally generally applicable to an unlimited number. This was considered to be using Qin Nuo as a stud in a blatant and undisguised manner.

But Qin Nuo has not made any statement in this regard, and he has been a monk in the military for so many years. When he came back this time, the public had almost become accustomed to his status and thought there would be no changes. However, Qin Nuo suddenly announced his relationship with Lin Yi.

It doesn't matter if it was someone else, but it had to be Lin Yi, who was of low status and had lost his fertility. Regardless of whether Lin Yi was a victim or not, in the eyes of many traditional conservatives, he was still 360 degrees incompatible with Qin Nuo in all aspects.

As a result, such a Lin Yi frequently made shocking remarks. Not to mention that everyone felt that such a Lin Yi might be abandoned by the marshal who was only confused for a moment. After Lin Yi said something that almost deprived the upper-class alphas, especially the alpha privileges enjoyed by Qin Nuo, everyone was holding back their efforts to get some response from Qin Nuo on this matter, but when they couldn't, Qin Nuo proposed such a case at the Empire New Policy Conference that almost shocked the entire families of the congressmen on the spot.

Long essays of tens of thousands of words, whether narrative or argumentative, or lyrical or realistic literary masterpieces, are probably not as dumbfounded as the almost ninety-nine percent of the people of the empire who were dumbfounded after seeing the title of this proposal.

Those gossip lovers who had been secretly complaining that Lin Yi’s temporary favor would not last long and that he would have no capital to be arrogant if he was abandoned tomorrow felt that their speeches in various public occasions had become a loud slap in their faces.

Once this proposal came out, who would dare to say that Qin Nuo didn't like Lin Yi? If this was called dislike, I'm afraid there is no real love in this world.

"What kind of boyfriend power is this? After reading this news, I couldn't help but turn around and kick my husband."

"Wow, wow, wow, you're indeed the Marshal. You're still so cool when it comes to love."

"This proposal!!! Although the Marshal and Lin Yi are together, his proposal instantly cured my broken heart. I haven't made any mistakes in all these years."

Song Qinsong, who was sitting in the voting seat at the meeting, almost spat out blood when he saw the title of the proposal. He suddenly remembered that when Lin Yi's comments on the concubine system were hyped up by the media, he asked Qin Nuo for his opinion on the matter. Now thinking back, it was as if he was the one who rushed to ask Qin Nuo to solve the matter.

Now that Qin Nuo gave his solution to the problem, Song Qinsong couldn't laugh at all.

As an alpha who has not yet married, Song Qinsong's ideas are relatively traditional. He does not understand why Qin Nuo thinks that the outside world asking him to marry more wives and have more children is a burden. For Song Qinsong, having such a privilege is a complete benefit!

Song Qinsong didn't think he was an outlier, nor was he ashamed of his thoughts. From any angle, the real outlier was Qin Nuo.

He looked around and found that everyone sitting in the voting seats had a bitter face without exception, and it was obvious that they felt stabbed in the back by this proposal.

When Song Qinshuang finished looking around and was about to look away, he happened to bump into Qin Nuo who was not far away. When the two looked at each other, Song Qinshuang actually felt that he saw a rare smile in Qin Nuo's eyes.

Under normal circumstances, Song Qinsong might have felt relaxed, but at this moment, his spine shuddered and he realized that Qin Nuo's expression was more of a warning than a friendly one.

Song Qinsong felt that if he dared to cast a vote against the proposal after it was passed, Qin Nuo would probably tear him in half as soon as he left the house.

He retracted his gaze, took a sip of the drink in front of him, and pretended to be calm. Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. It's just one vote in favor. There are thousands of votes besides his. By then, one more vote from him won't make much difference, and one less vote from him won't make much difference.

Qin Nuo's proposal was not complicated, but it was decisive. It required changing the current laws and regulations of the empire regarding concubines, and stopping the concubine system after the bill came into effect, while ensuring that the concubine system before the bill came into effect remained unchanged.

To put it simply, I will not touch the benefits you originally have, but this benefit will no longer exist in the future.

Qin Nuo was not the first person who wanted to make changes to the concubine system. Similar proposals had appeared in the civilian proposals that were reviewed by the New Policy Council through netizens in the early years. Even those who wanted to change the current concubine system did not make a clean sweep like Qin Nuo, but basically proposed to reduce the number of concubines to one or two.

Even so, because it touches the interests of most upper-level politicians, such a proposal has no chance of passing and may even be publicly ridiculed.

But Qin Nuo's identity was different. No one dared to laugh at his proposal, and they even had to give more consideration to the voting.

Since Qin Nuo returned to the capital star, Song Qinsong was not the only one who came back with him. Many people gradually participated in the imperial politics through the military and various systems.

The depth of their planning can be seen from the number of new faces with military backgrounds among those who have voting power in this year's Imperial New Government Council.

In the eyes of the public, this proposal is a pure expression of Qin Nuo's love for Lin Yi. But for politicians, it is a choice that may be tested by Qin Nuo.

Qin Nuo's attitude of wanting to reduce the power of the nobles is already very clear, and whether the nobles are willing to comply with this change or hold on to the end can be seen from this vote on the proposal.

However, in the eyes of the public, whether this proposal is passed or not, it is not a big problem. Qin Nuo is willing to do this, which shows his position. Even if this bill is not passed in the future, Lin Yi probably does not have to worry about the appearance of concubines or other eyesores in his life.

Naturally, there were people who disapproved of Qin Nuo's behavior, and his mother was one of them.

Mrs. Williams has been very busy lately and has paid less attention to her son. Just when she was beginning to experience the joy of having a career, Qin Nuo's move almost made her faint.

Unable to contact Qin Nuo immediately, she turned to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi was filming a crying scene with a lot of emotional fluctuations. The same scene was shot over and over again. His face was already covered with tear marks and his voice was a little hoarse.

Fred stared at the machine and yelled "click" again, then angrily shouted at the supporting actor next to Lin Yi, "Do you know what conflict is? Do you know what it means to be sad? Do you think you are acting with expressionless face? Such a beautiful woman is crying in front of you and you have no reaction at all?"

The alpha supporting actor who was scolded said cautiously with a bitter face, "Director, what's the reaction?"

Fred looked around, then picked up a bench that fit his needs and wanted to smash it directly on the man's head, but he finally held back and said patiently, "Can you show some affection, love, and desire to hug him?"

The alpha looked even more miserable. He looked at Lin Yi, then at Fred, and finally at the soldiers of the First Legion who were guarding not far away. "Director, Marshal, I don't dare."

He was afraid that if he acted according to the script, he would be chopped into pieces by the soldiers over there and sent to Qin Nuo to seek credit.

Fred finally couldn't help but throw the bench at the alpha's feet, but he had to admit the fact that Qin Nuo could cause huge psychological pressure on the entire team without even having to go to the scene.

He simply called a halftime break.

On Lin Yi's side, Xiao D and Xiao A rushed over to greet him. Xiao A's voice was filled with tears as he handed a tissue to Lin Yi, "Master, I will cry too if you cry."

It then handed Lin Yi the communicator he had removed and said, "Madam has been calling this way just now, and I hung up on her first. Do you want to call back now?"

Lin Yi glanced at the missed call on the communicator, nodded and called back. He was still somewhat immersed in the emotions of the play, his eyes were red, and he looked pitiful.

Therefore, when Mrs. Williams answered the phone in seconds, she was about to ask Lin Yi what kind of ** soup she had fed her son. Isn't it a joke to abolish the concubine system? Lin Yi's eyes were red, and he looked as lovable as he could be.

Being used to seeing Lin Yi's bright smile, Mrs. Williams couldn't say a word to Lin Yi in anger now.

"Madam, is there anything wrong?" Lin Yi asked.

At the same time, he discovered that Qin Nuo had a call at this time.

So before Mrs. Williams answered, Lin Yi answered Qin Nuo's call. He thought that the break time was so short, so it would be okay to answer the calls of both mother and son at the same time.

So when Qin Nuo answered the phone, he saw his mother with an angry face and Lin Yi who was crying.
