82. Gossip Town Demon Division
Qi Lu's affairs cannot be solved in a short while. After saying a few more words, let's put it aside for the time being and the topic turned to Ji Wuli.
The hall gradually became silent, and the heat of tea rose and circled and dissipated in the air. After meeting my friend's excitement again, Ji Wuli's face turned pale again.
"Can you find clues?"
Qi Lu's fingers knocked on the table and admired the mountain waterfall hanging on the wall, with a little deepness.
"If you can get caught in the tail so easily, it's easier."
Ji Wuli smiled indifferently, as if he did not take this matter to heart. "When he was about to arrive in the capital, he was attacked. If the other party dared to do this, he must have made complete preparations. Even if he failed, it would not be so easy to find the mastermind behind the scenes."
Ji Tianxing was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, but the attacker had already committed suicide by taking poison at that time, and even his soul was not left. It was clearly a dead soldier.
"There is no hurry to do this. However, the establishment of the Demon Suppression Division has encountered too many bad things."
Since returning to the capital, Ji Wuli happened to take advantage of the assassination opportunity to express his idea of forming a Demon Suppression Division, but was opposed by the vast majority of the government and the public.
There are many reasons, but in the final analysis, there is only one thing: interests.
Due to the limited qualifications, not everyone can practice. Such people occupy the majority in the court and the public. With their knowledge and skills, some have almost become the most important ministers. In order to consolidate their rights, they naturally do not want to see an additional new rights structure that cannot be affected by them.
Even if the Demon Suppression Division is led by the emperor, that won’t work!
Because we can't get any benefits!
The other part of the ministers who have entered the ranks of cultivators oppose it to compete for the right to speak.
No matter who it is, I want to make a fuss in this matter and gain more rights for myself.
Everyone can see that after the establishment of the Demon Suppression Division, it can help the stability of Qiguo, but you, the Ninth Prince, want to take the majority, have you asked us if you have?
In addition, his brothers secretly contributed to the fire, making things more complicated.
Emperor Ji Tianxing did not argue with this, just like a high-ranking clay sculpture. He did not object, but did not agree.
Until now, no results have been discussed.
"Is there no one in the court... that tends toward you?"
Qi Lu asked a question, which made Ji Wuli even more helpless and sighed tiredly: "The foundation is still shallow. There were several ministers who had the intention to surrender, but after I proposed to form the Demon Suppression Division, I almost stopped interacting with me."
Before Qi Lu asked again, he smiled bitterly and continued, "I know you would say I was too impatient, but this matter is urgent. If I wait a few years and then mention it after I have enough foundation, it will definitely be much easier."
"But I can wait, but how long can the people of Qiguo wait? In such a huge Qiguo, the territory seems to have been growing year by year, but it is nothing more than a castle in the air."
"That territory map is just a self-deception. I don't believe you can't find it when you come to the capital along the way. The people of Qiguo are already full of grievances. Looking at the various cities, except for the capital, which one is reasonable, isn't the rest difficult to survive?"
He said a lot, as if he wanted to pour out all the depressions of the past few days. He looked at Qi Lu deeply and asked seriously: "Will you not put a strong medicine at this time? Should you wait until the Qi Kingdom raises the flag and rebels and the war is ongoing, and then do some remedies?"
Qi Lu was silent about this, as the other party said, and by then, it would be too late.
If Qiguo falls into turmoil, the surrounding countries will definitely not give them the opportunity to suppress the rebellion. At that time, the internal and external attacks will likely be in vain.
The people don’t care. Anyway, they don’t have a high sense of belonging to Qiguo, and their lives have been extremely bad. If another force ruled them, they might be able to live a little easier.
The civil and military ministers are not very problematic. Except for those who have enemies with neighboring countries, the rest will no longer be officials. If you are lucky, you may be able to continue to work hard in the new regime system.
The one who ended the most miserable was probably the royal family.
Death is just the beginning. Some perverts even capture their souls and enjoy watching the royal family members be tortured.
"Now my second brother is about to return to the court. If, as mentioned earlier, after conquering a certain area, he would first appease the matter and suppress the rebellion, and the people sent to take over the court will be sent to the court to do so.
But my second brother hurriedly returned with his power this time, and his purpose was probably to the Demon Suppression Department."
A hint of mockery flashed in Ji Wuli's eyes, and then he was replaced by the feeling of being tired. None of these emperor brothers could be deceived.
This is still not a matter of establishing the Demon Suppression Division. If this matter can be accomplished, all kinds of open and secret struggles will inevitably occur in the future.
"My second brother is back in half a month. On that day, it will definitely be very lively."
The atmosphere fell into silence again. Long Aotian stretched and yawned, "What are you afraid of? Is Your Majesty unclear about what we are worried about? Everyone has their own plans, don't you know that all this is in the gaze of Your Majesty?"
As he said that, he looked at Ji Wuli and said confidently: "The person who doesn't want to see the destruction of Qi Kingdom the most is not you, not me, nor your royal brother, but your father.
Anyone with a slightly longer-term vision can see the crisis facing Qiguo. I don’t believe His Majesty can’t see it.
Therefore, there is a conclusion in this matter, so there is no need to worry too much."
If the people present know Ji Tianxing, except Ji Wuli, there is only Long Aotian. Qi Lu was limited to too little information and could not evaluate it. After hearing Long Aotian say this, Ji Wuli's expression calmed a little, rubbed his face and forced himself to say, "It's all that can be done now."
"It's better to speed up contact with the cultivators in the court, so as not to let them choose to support other emperor brothers, and it will be even worse to make progress..."
"if,"
Faced with Long Aotian's suggestion, Qi Lu did not agree and waved: "If there is no problem with your judgment of His Majesty the Emperor, if His Majesty is really on the throne, he watched everyone's small movements coldly..."
Qi Lu tapped the table with rhythmic fingers again and said to them calmly: "Then I think it's better for you to calm down in the past few days. Be honest in recuperating and wait for the second prince to return to the capital. This is the safest thing to do."
The emperor is still in his prime, and you are jumping repeatedly under his nose. Do you think he can't lift the knife, or do you think any one can ride on his head and shit and pee?
Ji Wuli proposed to form the Demon Suppression Department, which was already pushed to the forefront. At this time, he contacted and won over the ministers in the court in private...
Isn't that asking for death...
