“So, what’s wrong with a referendum?”
"People in a region have the right to choose their own lives, don't they?!"
Lu Ming sat at the venue of the Eastern League’s temporary meeting of leaders and spoke loudly.
There was silence in the venue.
Lu Ming picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water, then let out a long breath, "However, the Montenegro Special Administrative Region Government has no intention of provoking regional tensions. We will negotiate with the Jiangning Provincial Department to resolve the matters of Sanhe and Tianguan. This is also our Jiangning Provincial internal affairs ”
The time goes back to more than a month ago.
Not long after Wang Jingcheng returned to Tianguan City, news spread like wildfire that Tianguan was preparing to hold a referendum on joining the Montenegro Special Administrative Region.
It has not yet entered the substantive deployment stage. Apparently the news was leaked by someone close to Wang Jingcheng.
At the same time that Governor Chuckson issued a stern statement, Wang Taishan, commander of the Jiangning Border Guard Division, suddenly entered Tianguan and Sanhe.
Wang Jingcheng and a group of cronies were arrested.
Ding Lei, the governor of Sanhe City, fled.
The Black Mountain Corps immediately mobilized urgently, and the air in Jiangning suddenly became tense.
In the Eastern League, there are undercurrents surging, and some members are brewing proposals to expel Montenegro from the Eastern League.
Because Lu Ming, the head of the Montenegro Special Administrative Region, has increasingly revealed his true identity of believing in power and force, seriously deviating from the values of the Eastern Alliance.
In this context, the Eastern League held an emergency interim summit.
Lu Ming gave a speech for more than an hour at the meeting, but in the end, he promised to resolve the dispute peacefully.
……
At the end of April, the Montenegrin Corps first evacuated armed personnel from the border.
A few days later, Wang Jingcheng and a group of cronies were released, but were subsequently expelled from Jiangning.
On May 13, the Montenegro Railway Company and Jiangning Province reached an agreement. The railway section from Montenegro to Daliang City, Zhenjiang Province, passing through three cities in the south, will be operated by the Montenegro Railway Company. The area of five kilometers on both sides of the railway line will be operated by the Heishan Railway Company. It is managed by Montenegro Railway Company.
On May 17, at the invitation of Hu Dingjin, the Financial Secretary of Jiangning Province, a delegation of bankers from Japan came to the capital of Jiangning Province for a goodwill visit.
Almost on the same day, the Zhenjiang Special Court made a verdict regarding the case of Liang Chongming Group.
……
The peaks are steep, the white clouds are long, and the welcoming pines are swaying in the wind. Looking up at the ladder to the sky, the green mountains are covered with classical buildings with exquisite eaves.
This is Fuyun Mountain, a famous mountain in Zhenjiang Province.
Lu Ming slowly climbed up the stairs, and walking beside him was Christine.
"Don't worry, I'm not in a bad mood!" Seeing Christine looking at him from time to time, Lu Ming smiled slightly.
"I understand." Christine said.
Lu Ming smiled again, "The expansion has been too fast recently, so it's better to shrink the strategy and stabilize it! Otherwise, we will become a big tiger that everyone in the neighborhood wants to beat!"
Kristine nodded silently.
Since marrying Princess Alice, she has never met Christine in private. She made several appointments but received no response.
Now, for the first time, my booming career has suffered a setback.
Strictly speaking, I got some of what I wanted, but from the outside, my ambition did suffer a major setback.
It was even forced to defend itself for more than an hour at the alliance summit and made some commitments on political and military lines. It was clear that it was weak and weak.
At this time, Christine came to Zhenjiang secretly.
She proposed to come to Fuyun Mountain to play, and she readily agreed.
She even took the initiative to put on her twin ponytails, and put on a yellow and black plaid college uniform skirt, snow-white knee socks and beautiful black leather shoes. The **** fusion of a beautiful young woman and the innocence of an innocent girl, you can be as attractive as you want. How tempting.
Lu Ming smiled secretly in his heart. In this case, it would be good to have this kind of setback a few more times.
"The public opinion in the three cities of Humen, Sanhe and Tianguan is definitely leaning towards you now, so we still have to take a long-term view..."
Lu Ming scratched his head, how could Christine care about the place names in the Northern Territory before? Nowadays, it is natural because of his own relationship that he is extremely concerned about the affairs of the Northern Territory.
"And after you relented at the meeting, they were very satisfied. The previously promised 20 million military expenditures have been allocated, and the annual special funding plan for the Montenegrin Corps has also entered the discussion agenda."
At this point, Christine was startled and turned to look at Lu Ming suspiciously. Her beautiful eyes became a little angry, "Did you lie to me when you sent me the secret message in a very low tone?! I still I thought you had lost your fighting spirit!”
Lu Ming coughed and said, "Frustration is true, but it is not necessary to accept weakness. Moreover, if the performance can be controlled, it is easier to get close to than making people think that it is a tiger out of the gate. You still have to convince people with virtue." ! ”
After a pause, "In fact, I don't have much hope for the annual special funds. To get that money, there will definitely be many harsh prerequisites. I'm afraid I really want to become the caretaker of those big bosses." Courtyard! ”
Kristine bit her lip and turned to look at the scenery.
"Thank you for worrying about me." Lu Ming said with a playful smile.
At this time, half way up the mountainside, among the green trees, a corner of Guanyu was faintly revealed. When we got closer, there was a nunnery called "Ciyun Nunnery".
Seeing Lu Ming about to walk over, Christine said: "It's better not to disturb the monks' retreat."
While talking, the black wooden door of the nunnery opened, and several nuns walked out of it. The old nun at the head lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, this old nun has been waiting for a long time."
Lu Ming nodded and walked over.
The Jingxin nuns respectfully welcomed Lu Ming and Christine into the nunnery, and then led them into a small courtyard at the back of the nunnery.
The small courtyard seems to be suspended halfway up the mountain. When you open the courtyard door, there is a huge stone platform. The mountain forest is steep, the green trees are lush, the clouds and mist are lingering in the distance, and the scenery is wonderful.
There are even hot springs in the bamboo forest outside the courtyard, the steam is gurgling, and the natural bathing pools made from the rocks are like a fairy cave.
"Your Highness, are you satisfied with cultivating your mind here?" Jingxin seemed to be calm, but when his eyes swept over Lu Ming, there was a hint of excitement.
Lu Ming smiled: "It's good. This is indeed a good place for practice."
Seeing Christine being led by a female nun over there to see the beautiful scenery of the bamboo forest listening to the waves, Jingxin said: "Your Highness, the nun has a proud disciple named Huiyin, whose iron palm can split tigers and leopards... ”
Lu Ming waved his hand to interrupt, "Since you have been born, practice well and stop caring about worldly things."
Jingxin remained silent, and after a while he sighed softly, "The Empress of Baozhu Palace also has such a sacred message, but Xiaoni..."
Lu Ming waved his hand: "No need to say anything more."
Jing Xin is a descendant of the Tianshan Guards and the legacy of the abandoned warriors in charge of the Pearl Palace.
Lu Ming and his family spent the Chinese New Year in Zhenjiang this year. Only then did Bizhu feel something and found Ciyun Temple.
If it is not New Year's Day, even if Bizhu passes under Fuyun Mountain, he may not be able to feel the same kind of existence.
Ciyun'an's inheritance is much more complete than Sun Bo's. Sun Bo didn't know what was going on, he only knew that there was a holy envoy.
The Master Jingxin of Ciyun Temple knows everything.
Because his ancestor was an important figure in the Tianshan Guard.
Bizhu's ancestor was in charge of the Tianshan Guard, and had four commanders under his command. Jingxin's ancestor was one of the four commanders, named Hu Ben.
However, after seeing that Huben's descendant had become a monk, and Bi Zhu informed Lu Ming, both of them felt that it would be better not to disturb this lineage anymore.
Moreover, the world is already different now. The warriors left behind are complete inheritance, which will not be of much help to the career pursued by Lu Ming.
Not as good as the special warriors trained by Bizhu today.
Looking at Jing Xin’s secret expression at this time, Lu Ming smiled and said: “Just stay here for me. This is a private garden. When I encounter problems, I come here to practice meditation. It will be of great benefit to me!”
"Yes, follow His Highness's Holy Order!" Jingxin bowed respectfully, with a little comfort in his eyes.
……
It is really refreshing to soak in the hot spring, and it is running water, emerging from below, flowing out from the cracks next to the natural stone bath, slowly gathering into a clear stream, winding down the mountain.
Sitting on the stone wall, Lu Ming said very comfortably: "Chris, it's really comfortable. Come on, what are you afraid of? Just wear a swimsuit, just pretend you're at the beach!"
"I have never worn a swimsuit on a public beach." Kristine paused, "I will go after you come out."
"Okay..." Lu Ming scratched his head. Thinking about it, a top aristocrat like Christine actually had the same education as an oriental aristocratic girl. Wearing a bikini in front of men, he still thought it was inappropriate. A frivolous act.
"However, this is not a public place, it's just the two of us! What's wrong with wearing swimsuits?" Lu Ming was still struggling.
Kristine didn't bother to pay attention to him, so Lu Ming had no choice but to shut up.
……
There were vegetarian dishes on the table, and Lu Ming and Christine sat opposite each other.
The wooden window is open, the mountains and forests outside are lush, the clouds are floating in the distance, the sun is shining, and the setting sun is disappearing into the mountains.
Lu Ming looked at Christine and said helplessly: "Why don't you wear that outfit? Has your hair style changed?"
Christine had bathed in the hot spring, put on a gorgeous dress, and had her golden hair **** high, regaining her beauty as a Western lady.
"I already regret coming to Zhenjiang!" Christine said calmly.
It can be seen that he is really angry.
"If you hadn't written, I would have wanted to come."
Obviously, what she was most angry about was that Lu Ming lied to her when he wrote the letter.
Lu Ming was silent for a while and looked at her, "I sincerely apologize to you, but if I don't, I feel that you have decided not to see me again."
"According to seniority, I am your aunt now." Christine picked up the rice wine on the table, took a sip, and said: "Besides, Your Highness Alice has always respected me."
Lu Ming nodded: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." The more the conversation went on, the more he felt like he was guilty.
"According to my intelligence, the war in the south is about to start again." Lu Ming sighed, "The second prince purchased many advanced weapons and organized an air force with hundreds of airships, but the Sonia Army has always been brave and good at fighting. If you value mechanical armor, the next war will become more and more brutal."
Kristine nodded slightly, "Over there in the imperial capital, someone has already asked about the combat effectiveness of the Montenegrin Corps, so you should stay secretive and don't be called to be cannon fodder."
Lu Ming sighed, "I originally planned in Antiguala, but recently I have seen that I am trying to give some color to the Japanese. There is a rift between me and Governor Chaxon, and they are taking advantage of the situation to intervene in the affairs of Jiangning Province. ”
"What do you need me to do?" Christine asked, "If you want to see me, you must have something to ask me for, and the matter is important and needs to be discussed face to face."
Lu Ming coughed and felt ashamed in his heart. Fortunately, Christine didn't care about this. She really didn't mind. Otherwise, this little thing about him would probably chill her.
"Do you still remember Katsura Ayaka's property division? At that time, the Kato family transferred all her husband's property to Japan. After that, we established the principle of long-arm jurisdiction, sanctioned related companies, and the property was recovered for seven years. Seven or eight."
Listening to Lu Ming talking about the past, Christine's blue eyes flashed with a strange light, and she nodded gently: "Yes."
Lu Ming sighed softly: "I really hope that now you are still the judge and I am the lawyer, and we can continue to cooperate in the court..."
Kristine frowned: "We are not a cooperative relationship! Let's get to the point."
Lu Ming scratched his head and continued: "But there are still some properties that have not been recovered. There is a company called Jiali Electric. Because it has no business dealings with Donghai, and its electrical appliances are sold locally, so the summons from our Donghai Court was Ignoring it, Gui Linghua's husband held more than 30,000 yuan of stock in the company and was transferred to the Kato family by Jiali Electric."
Christine nodded slightly: "Although Jiali Electric is the largest electrical appliance company in Japan, it does only supply its local market."
Lu Ming said: "This stock has not been returned yet. I am going to ask Gui Linghua to sue again, using Jiali Electric as the defendant, demanding the return of her husband's inheritance, and also demanding related mental compensation costs. This Jiali Electric Co., Ltd. Electrical appliances that flout the laws of the East China Sea should also be punished with punitive fines."
Kristine didn’t speak and listened quietly.
"In terms of implementation." Lu Ming pondered: "If he refuses to implement, sanctions will be imposed. Technical sanctions require the Kingdom's enterprises to cut off its technical support and component supply, such as televisions, Most of the patents related to tape recorders and air conditioners, as well as the production of core components, are within the Kingdom, and our Eastern Alliance companies account for half of them."
"Well, you should think about it." Lu Ming glanced at her and picked up the wine glass, "The scenery here is nice, drink some wine and admire the moon. What we said, you can think about it again when you go back. I am here to rest quietly. , relax and recharge.”
