In the study of the Presidential Palace, Huo Jingyan was frantically asking Lu Huanting for help.
"Eight fighter jets are right above our heads, and there is an aircraft carrier lurking in the high seas. Duke Reddington is serious this time! If Shen Jun doesn't bow his head, the parliament will definitely impeach the president. By then, Lu Yuchen only needs to lobby other members of parliament to vote, and my presidency will be over!"
Although the Huo family is not bad, it is far inferior to the Lu family, which has extensive connections in the parliament.
Huo's father likes Huo Jingshan more, and Huo Jingyan knows that if he is not the president, it is even less likely that the Huo family's resources will be tilted towards him.
He must keep the presidency, he must!
"Mr. President, things are not the worst yet. The current situation is a crisis but also an opportunity for us. Domestic public opinion and media are on our side now, and your public support rate is the highest among all previous presidents."
"As long as you hold on a little longer and withstand the pressure from Parliament, I am confident that I can not only solve the troubles in Europe, but also solve Lu Yuchen at the same time."
"Insist?" Huo Jingyan looked at Lu Huanting with a mocking look, "The Prime Minister's words are too easy."
"The power of this country is in the hands of the presidential palace, parliament and the military. Now the parliament wants me to bow my head, and the military is unwilling to start a war. Tell me... As a president, what can I hold on to?"
"What's the use of public support? Can those keyboard warriors make Duke Reddington withdraw his troops, or make the parliament cancel the impeachment?!"
Huo Jingyan loved Lu Aitong terribly, and because he loved Lu Aitong so much, he almost never said a harsh word to Lu Huanting.
But this time, Huo Jingyan couldn't bear it anymore and got angry at Lu Huanting.
Lu Huanting's expression remained unchanged, and he watched Huo Jingyan roar at him in anger.
However, Lu Yishen on the side couldn't sit still. He was about to speak for Lu Huanting, but Lu Huanting grabbed his arm.
"Yishen, sit down." Lu Huanting held Lu Yishen down, and an unfathomable dark light flashed across his deep black eyes, which were somewhat similar to Lu Yuchen's.
"Your Excellency the President is right." After holding down Lu Yishen, Lu Huanting looked at Huo Jingyan calmly, his deep and obscure eyes calm.
"I really thought too simply about this matter and didn't consider the President. Let's put it this way. In three days, Hanli Country will hold a banquet to officially announce Han Xuan'er's identity."
"Your Excellency the President, why don't you propose to Han Xuan'er at the banquet before Hanli Kingdom recognizes her. Han Xuan'er likes you so much and she is already yours, she will definitely not refuse."
In this way, even if Han Liguo did not want to marry Han Xuan'er to Huo Jingyan, Han Xuan'er had agreed to the proposal in public, and there was no way to regret it.
"Since Hanliguo is willing to hold a banquet and specifically introduce Han Xuan'er's identity to the public, they must value her very much. When the time comes, you will become Hanliguo's son-in-law, and then let Han Xuan'er say a few good words for you. Even for the sake of their daughter, Hanliguo will not watch you being impeached by the parliament."
Now that the military is unwilling to step forward, the Presidential Office alone is not enough to bear the pressure.
However, as long as Hanli Kingdom favors Huo Jingyan and deliberately creates friction with Duke Reddington's army during the "normal defense" phase, the conflict can be easily escalated.
By then, the war would not be caused by the Presidential Office's insistence, but by carelessness during defense.
This way, no one can hold the Presidential Office accountable.
Huo Jingyan immediately understood the profound meaning of Lu Huanting's words.
His eyes changed slightly.
After a moment's silence, he nodded: "Okay, let's do it. But please explain Ai Tong to me."
After all, he still couldn't let go of Lu Aitong.
Lu Huanting smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. President. Aitong is a sensible child. She will naturally put the overall situation first."
