He can't change anyone, nor can he change the outcome...
Conservatives are pretty frustrated.
Everyone fell silent.
**
The third round of statistical results are still being updated intensively, and finally, a new round of results is out.
This is also the final result that determines whether Qiao Nian can enter the Privy Council!
Everyone looked up at the results refreshing on the screen.
Compared with the conservatives, the radicals were all very happy and felt less pressured. They were just waiting to see the results.
But when the results appeared before their eyes, they were stunned as if they had been hit by a heavy hammer!
"26:15?" Leonard's expression changed drastically. He looked at the number that popped up on the big screen in disbelief. He still held on to the hope and asked, "Did you make a mistake?"
They already had 15 votes.
After refreshing, why is there still 15 votes!
The votes didn’t go up at all!
Who can accept this
After a brief surprise on the conservative side, the world became completely different.
"We have 26 votes?"
"Qiao Nian got in?"
"Mr. Xue, the neutral faction..." someone reacted and immediately spoke to the silver-haired old man.
The silver-haired old man had already figured it out without him saying anything. He turned sideways and looked towards the seats of the neutral faction, a rare expression of surprise showing on his vigorous face.
Quentin was still sitting in the middle of the neutral group. He didn't look at the eyes of both parties looking at him. He stood up and brushed off the wrinkles on his suit as if nothing had happened. He said to Jacob indifferently, "Let's go."
Jacob heard the noisy discussions in the entire Senate and didn't dare to look around. He quickly got up and caught up with the man and left.
"Archbishop, wait for me."
…
Leonard also saw Quentin getting up and leaving, including the neutral people who left with him.
His face was terribly dark, and he threw his sleeves behind him with a cold face, and said coldly: "Let's go too!" "Mr. Lei, this result..."
"Mr. Lei, are we just going to admit it?"
In a short period of time, the radicals experienced what it was like to fall from heaven to hell and were completely unable to accept this unexpected outcome.
Leonard was so angry that he didn't want to talk at all. Seeing that they were not leaving, he turned around and left without even saying hello to the conservatives.
It shows how frustrated and angry he was about losing this time!
Someone from the conservative faction saw him leaving in such a rude manner, so they turned to the silver-haired old man and asked, "Mr. Xue, didn't you say that the archbishop would not change his mind? This result... the neutrals are clearly on our side."
As he spoke, he couldn't help but look at the number of votes on the screen.
26 votes in favor.
This time they achieved a crushing result.
Mr. Xue also didn't understand, but he was more patient than others and accepted the fact calmly: "I think someone must have convinced him."
Is the Archbishop such an easy person to persuade
Neutrals will not always be neutrals!
He himself felt that what he said was difficult to achieve, but someone did it: "Although I don't know how that person did it, it is at least the result we want to see."
He immediately ordered step by step: "Go and inform Emperor Ji."
"good."
He called out to the man again: "And Qiao Nian, tell her."
The conservative man paused again and nodded: "Understood."
The Privy Council still has preparatory work to do.
Even if Qiao Nian wanted to join the Privy Council, he had to report in a week, and then there would be a series of procedures and oaths.
