Chapter 56 Argument

Although what happened in the Ishin family only lasted one night, it soon became the hottest topic in the imperial capital.

In the palace, this is a place where officials and emperors discuss matters, but at this moment there is no seriousness in discussing national affairs, but it is like a noisy trip to the vegetable market.

The young emperor sat on the throne and looked at the ministers below with confusion.

Standing at the bottom right of him was one of the most powerful men in the empire, General Bude, who stood with his hands on his chest and his eyes closed, and ignored the quarrels of other ministers.

Asakura Ye stood at the lower left of the emperor, looking at the group of noisy and enthusiastic ministers in front of him, then closed his eyes and fell into meditation.

All this starts this morning.

Even if you don’t have to think about the affairs of the Ishin family, everyone understands that this is the order of the minister.

The officials who learned about what happened in the Isin family immediately sent people or went there in person. All they saw was the fire burned to pieces, just like the ruined Isin family and the unrecognizable black human-shaped ashes under the rubble.

Despite how much they wished Drew was not among these ashes, they had been waiting for hours and had not yet waited until Drew contacted them.

Officials who mistakenly thought that all the people in their family were dead gathered together and went to the palace together, hoping that the emperor could come out to uphold justice.

The emperor was helpless by the officials, so he had to invite Asakura Ye.

After Asakura Ye arrived, he made excuses for most of the accusations against him by all officials, without admitting it but not denying it.

Anyway, the emperor believed in him. No matter how much the officials said in front of the emperor, they were not as good as his words.

The only general Bude who can compete with Asakura Ha is a stubborn person who follows the ancestral teachings and is not allowed to interfere in politics.

Without the support that could compete with Asakura Ha, the officials' confidence quickly disappeared.

So despite the excuse of Asakura Ha, the officials were so angry that their faces turned red, they had no choice but to do anything.

Just when they wanted to feel helpless, Asakura Ye spoke again.

The Ishin family has no living or heirs, and their family's business and land must be taken over.

When everyone heard these words, they didn't understand what his words meant.

Those who can appear here are Drew's friends or partners, and they can even be said to be a conscience faction of a few officials in this country.

They knew that Drew had a younger brother, and that he was a puppet under the ministers. They thought that the minister would take advantage of Drew's death to let Dra inherit everything from the Isin family so that they could control the huge Isin family.

When he heard that he needed to find someone to take over the business and land of the Isin family, officials immediately speculated that he planned to take over the thousand-year savings of the Isin family by himself.

Just as they were wondering if there were any other people from the Isin family, the next sentence from Asakura Ye confused them again.

That is to let the officials take over, but at the same time, he thought he was the proposer, so he did not participate, and asked someone to summon other officials to the palace for discussion.

This has become the current scene. The quarrels in the palace are constantly fluctuating. Although most officials are selfish and just want to make more profits as they take advantage of the current situation.

Fortunately, the conscience officials are relatively united, and because Asakura Ha did not participate in the discussion, and this is not a politics, but a kind of division, they can directly use General Bude to suppress the officials opposite.

Although General Bude did not say a word about this, his status still made the officials slowly shut up.

They all decide who gets the grain business, who gets the fields, who gets the mines, who gets the factories, etc.

Transportation, food, clothing, requires a lot of manpower, and can also be used to grow herbs and even pharmacies. These can form circular production lines. People have a lot of demand for them, and they need them.

In the past, they only needed Drew to collect the people's needs or materials, and sent them to the poor.

But now Drew's death makes them unable to rely on themselves and other like-minded partners as they used to do.

Watching the conscience officials slowly obtain the business and land they need, they see that all they get is meaningless and profitable business or some barren land.

Those officials who were just quarreling with others and wanted to have more wealth began to worry.

They even wanted to pull Asakura Ye who was watching the show into the water, hoping that he would come forward to fight against General Bud, but no matter what they said or persuaded him, Asakura Ye was unmoved.

In the end, this farce-like debate ended with a huge victory for a few consciences.

Looking at the others who wanted to eat fat but could only drink some ointment, the conscience officials showed joyful smiles on their faces.

At the same time, I was a little worried whether Asakura Ye would suddenly go back on his word.

Although they have a conscience, if they do not have supplies and money, even if they want to help others in this corrupt world, they will have no power.

So after hearing the conclusion of Asakura Ye personally agreed to their discussion, everyone cheered loudly regardless of their image, and some even cried with joy.

But they were also worried about the greater conspiracy of Makuraha. He dared to attack the Ishin family, which was enough to affect national tax revenue, not to mention them.

Later, Asakura Ye also proposed to let death row prisoners and border troops capture the invading empires, and to let people from all over the country capture dangerous species and transport them to the imperial capital.

But when I heard that the merchants were responsible for the delivery, I didn't understand why Amakura Ye did this.

But the consciences and selfish officials who had just won the fruits of victory were also considered half businessmen, so a new round of quarrel began.

Just now, the selfish officials who only care about themselves and have never thought about working together have rarely united this time.

The consciences still adhered to the truth that unity is strength and began to quarrel.

Both factions quarreled around the first proposal, which was to escort death row prisoners from all over the country to the imperial capital.

The conscience faction is very clear that if the officials on the other side are asked to come to escort, the death row prisoners may be just a group of innocent people.

For those selfish officials, death row prisoners are not simple. You can catch them from the streets and alleys.

Seeing them quarreling again, Asakura Ye did not watch the show this time like he had just done. He also understood their purpose of competing for the verdict of the death row prisoner and the right to escort.

He took out a wooden stick casually, broke it, and wrote the death row and the dangerous species on it.

Let the two groups choose a representative and let them draw lots.

As for the prisoners, they never thought about fighting for them at the beginning. After all, when Makura Ye talked about the prisoners, he directly authorized General Bude.

Finally, with the help of Asakuraye, officials of the Conscience faction obtained the right to escort the death row prisoners, and it also represented that the death row prisoners they recognized were the real death row prisoners.

Compared with the conscience representatives who have received praise from their colleagues, the selfish officials are excluded by other colleagues before they can even stand back to their positions.

Although both are escorts, the cost of capture and escorts are completely different.

The death row prisoner will run away, but if the dangerous species are in trouble, it may lead to the entire escort team being destroyed, and even the capture process is incomparable.

The final argument at the palace ended with a great victory by the Consciences, until they returned home and thought that what happened today was just a dream.
