Chapter 1040: Chapter 1040 Supreme Favor (1)
Councilor John was the first to speak. Since yesterday, he had begun to align himself with Gan Yuan, and now he actively expressed his support for her, "With our current military strength, it is impossible to intimidate General Barton. If we can get help from A Country, we can suppress his arrogance and force him to back down voluntarily."
"Yes, I agree."
"Moreover, this will also deepen the friendship between our two countries and promote mutual development."
Two other Liberal Party councilors echoed Councilor John’s statement.
Now is the time to choose sides; aligning oneself with the right side could influence one’s future political career. These individuals have all recognized Gan Yuan’s capability and strength.
Her noble status and close relationship with the Duke of A Country will become her assets...
Previously, His Majesty the King of A Country also declared that they would fully support her. Clearly, this woman will undoubtedly be a key player in this country in the future, and they are naturally willing to follow her lead.
Upon this declaration, the two members of the Conservative Party naturally turned their gaze to Wilson.
"The Princess’s idea is indeed good..." Wilson placed the document on the table, coughed lightly, and leaned back in his chair. "However... I personally feel that it is somewhat inappropriate. We all know the relationship between the Princess and A Country, but I want to remind the Princess that you are now the ruler of this country and should consider issues more from our national interests and perspective."
"Does the councilman believe that I would not consider our national interests and perspective?" Gan Yuan countered.
"I believe... the Princess is completely inviting trouble!" Wilson tapped the table with his hand. "By bringing in foreign troops into our territory, if something goes wrong and they suddenly attack us, then we will be facing enemies on both sides."
Gan Yuan smiled, "He won’t!"
"Perhaps you trust the Duke greatly, but my question is, we..." Wilson glanced around the room and gestured towards the window, "and the millions of our country’s people, what will they think? How can your Duke guarantee that he won’t act against our country and undermine you?"
"Senator Wilson!" Dolly, sitting behind John, immediately stood up, "You are being alarmist. The Duke is the Princess’s husband. How could he do such a thing?"
"Indeed, this time, the Duke is completely helping us!" John echoed.
Wilson snorted coldly, "In this age of prioritizing interests, do you still believe in such things? Husband and wife?! The Duke has not held a formal wedding with the Princess, not even gone to a church. Is that considered an official marriage?"
"We have already obtained official legal documents and are legally married." Gan Yuan raised her hands to the table, leaning slightly forward and gazing at Wilson. "Moreover, this cooperation will have a formal agreement, and I have meticulously outlined the corresponding clauses in the document. To show their sincerity, A Country will not only fully cooperate with our military actions but also provide us with a large number of supplies, including but not limited to fighter jets, warships... and various weapons!
