Xu Yi's proposal was finally passed in the final resolution of the Standing Principality Congress. ,
This is not surprising.
With the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce's current strong influence on the Principality of Standing, once Xu Yizhen makes up his mind to promote something in the Principality of Standing, there is basically no possibility of failure.
However, during the resolution process, Xu Yi's proposal only received 56% support, barely passed, which showed that this proposal could not really convince everyone in the Principality of Standing.
Moreover, the remaining 44% of members who did not vote in favor almost all abstained from voting, and few members directly voted against it.
This not only proves that the influence of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is indeed powerful and prevents others from directly opposing it, but it also represents a silent protest.
The concrete manifestation of these silent protests is that although this proposal was passed, it faced various difficulties in its actual implementation.
According to this proposal, the Congress of the Principality of Standing issued a "Principal Slave Status Conversion Act" to implement the proposal. However, during implementation, almost all slave-owning lords in the Principality did not cooperate.
According to rough statistics, the total number of slaves in the Principality of Standing was currently between 150,000 and 160,000. However, within the first week of the implementation of this bill, not even a single slave applied to change status.
This is actually not surprising.
Most of the slaves had little education, and it was difficult to obtain information. Not many knew about this bill. Also know how to apply. There are even fewer.
And even if you know it. These slaves didn't even dare to apply.
Being slaves for many years made them dare not disobey the will of the lords. No slave dared to make his own decision before the lords spoke.
As for expecting those lords to take the initiative to report
Stop dreaming!
So although Xu Yi's proposal was passed, because it was very difficult to implement, the actual effect was almost nothing.
In the beginning, everyone within the Principality of Standing and several surrounding countries were paying close attention to this matter. However, more than half a month passed without any movement, and everyone's enthusiasm for paying attention gradually faded.
And at this time. A major event happened in the Lampali Kingdom, which attracted everyone's attention.
Her Majesty Queen Sevigny has given birth!
Two months ago, Her Majesty Queen Sevigny took the initiative to announce to the public that she was indeed pregnant and had been pregnant for eight months.
This news not only caused a sensation in the Lampali Kingdom, but also attracted the attention of all other surrounding countries.
After all, Her Majesty Queen Sevigny was not married, so she was pregnant with a child unknowingly, which was really shocking.
And in the eyes of many people at the time, this was really an out-and-out scandal for the royal family of the Lampali Kingdom. Even the entire Lampali Kingdom was ashamed.
But in the past two months, Her Majesty Queen Sevigny has no intention of covering up this matter. She continued to appear openly in front of everyone, and newspapers within the Lampali Kingdom spared no effort to explain Her Majesty the Queen. On the contrary, everyone gradually forgot that this was a scandal, and instead began to sincerely wish her well.
After all, Her Majesty Queen Sevigny's child will surely be the next heir to the throne, so there is no point in dwelling on this scandal.
Two months later, Her Majesty Queen Sevigny was ten months pregnant.
So as early as half a month ago, there was a wave of interest in the upcoming child in the Lampali Kingdom.
Everyone was talking about the unborn child, speculating whether it was a boy or a girl, and many casinos even set up bets on this.
Now, the child was finally born and instantly attracted everyone's attention.
According to the news released by the palace, Her Majesty Queen Sevigny gave birth to a prince. The entire birth process went very smoothly, and both her Majesty the Queen and their prince passed away safely.
The entire Lampali Kingdom immediately fell into a carnival.
Since Her Majesty Queen Sevigny ascended the throne, the internal situation of the Lampali Kingdom has been stable, the economy has developed extremely rapidly, the lives of the people of the kingdom have improved significantly, and the overall national strength has been greatly improved. The Sak Kingdom, the feudal enemy of the Parli Kingdom, must now bow its head in front of the Lampali Kingdom.
Everyone loves Her Majesty the Queen who is able to make a good life for most people, and who is also good-looking and has a kind and broad mind.
Now that she has given birth to her own child, everyone is naturally happy.
Before, people were still worried that Her Majesty the Queen seemed not to be very enthusiastic about her marriage, and the problem of the kingdom's heir was serious, but they did not expect that Her Majesty the Queen would secretly become pregnant and give birth to a child.
Now that the child has been born, the Lampali Kingdom has welcomed its next successor. Everyone seems to have had a big stone fall in their hearts, and they feel much calmer.
Under the influence of this kind of emotion, even though some people may have questions in their minds from time to time, it has nothing to do with the overall situation.
Anyway, the child has been born, and everyone can be sure that this is Her Majesty the Queen's child, so what does it matter who his father is
Including Xu Yi, he actually had the same idea.
"Hey, Sevini, this child looks so much like you." Xu Yi carefully held the baby in his hands, looking at his big forehead and high nose, and said with a smile. "I think this boy will definitely be a handsome guy when he grows up. I'm afraid that even if his status as a noble prince is not included, he will definitely charm a lot of girls."
Sevini smiled slightly, glanced at Xu Yi, and then glanced at the baby in Xu Yi's arms. There was a complex look in his eyes, and he sighed quietly: "The status of a prince may not be a good thing. When he grows up, he may bring It gave him more trouble.”
Xu Yi laughed: "Then it depends on how you teach him. Since he is the prince of the Lampali Kingdom, he must not be able to escape the responsibilities he must bear. You should guide him well and not regard these responsibilities as Pressure should be used as motivation.”
"You said it quite simply." Sevini couldn't help but roll her eyes at Xu Yi. "Where's your Freya? Wasn't she recognized by you as your sole heir as soon as she was born? How did you teach her to turn pressure into motivation? Let me take it as a reference."
Xu Yi shrugged and said, "I don't care that much at all. I just let her play however she wants."
Sevini was stunned: "How can that be done? She is your only heir, and she will inherit the entire New Flying Chamber of Commerce in the future. If you don't train her from an early age, how will she be able to take on such an important responsibility in the future?"
"If you really can't afford it, just stop taking it." Xu Yi replied with a relaxed look. "I just made her my heir, not the heir of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The leader of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce must have sufficient ability. If she is not capable enough and is not suitable to be a leader, then she should not be a leader. , otherwise it will not be a good thing for her and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."
Sevini looked at Xu Yi with an incredible expression.
"Are you planning to give up on the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?"
"There is no connection between these? What I mean is that Freya is Freya, and Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. If she is interested and has the ability to take over Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, then of course I will support her. But if she If she doesn’t have the ability or is simply not interested, then I will also support her in doing what she likes to do. What I value more is her own happiness than the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.”
Sevini stared at Xu Yi for a long time, sighed, and slowly shook his head.
"This is the difference between you and me. You can let go of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, but I will never let go of the Lampali Kingdom. Sitting on this throne, there are many things that I have no control over." Sevini turned around He looked out the window with a slightly depressed expression. "If I could choose again, I would rather not be the king."
Xu Yi was silent.
Although he said it lightly, in fact, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has gathered all his hard work.
There is no problem in letting Freya accept the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce without violating her wishes, but Xu Yike asks himself that he can't do it if Xu Yi gives up the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on his own initiative.
The Lampali Kingdom is countless times more important to Sevini than the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is to Xu Yi.
The Lampali family founded the Lampali Kingdom for hundreds of years. Thanks to the efforts of many ancestors, the Lampali Kingdom has been maintained.
If Sevini wanted to give up now, it would be equivalent to throwing away the hard work of all his ancestors.
Don't say she can't do it, countless people in the Lampali Kingdom won't allow her to do it.
And Sevigny's child has been shouldering this heavy responsibility since he was born.
When Sevini grows old in the future, he will definitely inherit the entire Lampali Kingdom and continue to work hard for the throne without any possibility of giving up.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi looked at the baby in his arms with a hint of pity.
"Poor little guy, I don't know if you would be happy to have to shoulder such a heavy responsibility just after he was born."
Xu Yi reached out and touched the little guy's face, only to find that he laughed.
There was a slightly funny smile on his round little face, which made Xu Yi couldn't help but feel happy just looking at it.
Turning his head and looking at Sevigny, who was still looking out the window and not knowing what he was thinking, Xu Yi felt that the atmosphere was too heavy now. With a move in his heart, he raised the baby in his hand and deliberately raised his voice: "Hey, Sevigny, Although Freya is more than four years older than this little guy, I don’t think it’s a big problem. What do you think we should get engaged to them now?”
Sevigny turned his head sharply and shouted: "No!"
Xu Yi was startled.
He was just joking, so why did Sevigny react so violently? (To be continued...)
