Before Lu Ling Gui came to look for Qin Shaoyou, he obviously obtained a lot of information from Qin Qiaoer. Yan
At this moment, when Qin Shaoyou asked who was in charge of the Demon Suppression Department, he did not hesitate at all and immediately reported a name: "Luo An."
"It's really him."
Qin Shaoyou snorted coldly.
This Luo An is Tongzhi, the commander of the Demon Suppression Department.
At the same time, he was a close confidant of Emperor Jianwu and a pawn he placed within the Demon Suppression Division.
Originally, Emperor Jianwu's idea was to hope that Luo An could take away Lu Bing's power in the Demon Suppression Division.
It would be best to fight against the Lu Bing branch and let the Demon Suppression Division fall into internal strife. Yan
In the view of Emperor Jianwu, who was well versed in the art of strategizing, only if the people under his command kept fighting, could the throne under his butt be secure.
It is a pity that Luo An is not as good as Lu Bing in terms of strength or ability to win over people's hearts.
Although he cultivated a group of subordinates in the Demon Suppression Division, he could not shake Lu Bing's foundation at all.
Let alone fight against the Lu Bing Chamber.
Even the authority Luo An obtained through a series of means, as well as the subordinates he bought, were all given to him deliberately by Lu Bing.
It's a pity that Luo An didn't know this.
Or maybe he knew it, pretended not to know, and reported it as his own merit. Yan
This caused Emperor Jianwu to misjudge, thinking that although Luo An was at a disadvantage in the fight with Lu Bing, he did not lose too much.
The advantage is still on their side!
Of course, given Emperor Jianwu's suspicious character, he might have been aware of this situation.
However, as there was no more suitable candidate in hand, he had no choice but to help Luo An take the position and let him temporarily take over the duties of commander of the Demon Suppression Division.
Let's see if we can capture the Demon Suppression Division and make it, like the Editorial Factory, a sharp knife truly loyal to the emperor.
"Besides the Commander, who else has been dismissed?" Qin Shaoyou asked immediately.
"Yes." Yan
Ling Ling Gui immediately announced several names, all of them were Lu Bing's disciples.
These people are responsible for several more important positions in the Demon Suppression Department, and now these positions have all been replaced by Luo An's people.
"Good fellow, we have only been out for a few days, and the Demon Suppression Department is going to completely change the situation? Are you just going to accept your fate like this? No resistance at all?"
Cui Youyou cursed.
"This is the power of imperial power."
Qin Shaoyou's face was gloomy.
"Until we have irrefutable evidence to reveal that Emperor Jianwu practiced evil arts and dethroned him from the throne, he was the emperor of the Xia Dynasty and had great power. Even if the commander wants to resist, he will not show it to his face.
Otherwise, it would be contrary to the way of being a minister. Emperor Jianwu didn't need to do it himself, the imperial censor Yanguan could spray him half to death." Yan
This is the truth.
No matter what Lu Bing thought in his heart, no matter whether he took any action behind his back, at least on the surface, he could not disobey the emperor's order, and he had to thank the Holy Grace for allowing him to step down and rest.
Of course, Emperor Jianwu did not take any further action against Lu Bing and his disciples.
After all, the strength and influence of these people are displayed there.
Moreover, within the Demon Suppression Division, many people were promoted by Lu Bing and his disciples. Emperor Jianwu would not be able to touch them until these people were cleared out.
Not to mention, Lu Bing and his disciples have indeed made a lot of achievements in the Demon Suppression Division and have contributed to the country.
Therefore, unless Emperor Jianwu had ironclad evidence that Lu Bing and his disciples had committed treason, misconduct, etc., even if he wanted to kill them again, he would have to do it slowly. Yan
Because once Lu Bing and others are dealt with rashly, it will inevitably cause shock and opposition from both the government and the public.
Not to mention, Lu Bing and his gang are very strong. Once they are pushed into a hurry, there is no guarantee that an accident will not happen.
For Emperor Jianwu, this would make the whole thing develop in a direction out of his control.
This is what he doesn't want to see.
Especially before the big sacrifice was about to come, Emperor Jianwu would never allow things to develop out of his control again.
Even now, just by removing Lu Bing and others from their posts, many imperial envoys have written letters of remonstrance, asking him to take back his unruly orders.
All these memorials were refuted by Emperor Jianwu.
At the same time, he also wrote down the names of these envoys, planning to wait until the big festival was over before looking for opportunities to deal with these people slowly.
After listening to Lu Linggui's account of Lu Bing's dismissal, Qin Shaoyou discussed with Zhu Xiucai and others for a few more words before finally making a judgment.
"The Commander has been running the Demon Suppression Department for many years. Even if he is removed from his post, the Demon Suppression Department will not be able to change things for a while.
If Luo An thought that he could completely control the Demon Suppression Department by cutting off a few people in charge, he would be totally wrong.
Unless he has the courage and ability to make a major change in the Demon Suppression Department, he, as the temporary commander, can only be a mascot."
"What if Luo An really did this?" Cui Youyou couldn't help but ask.
Qin Shaoyou sneered: "Even if Luo An really has such courage, Emperor Jianwu will not allow him to do this before the big sacrifice. If I am not wrong, the commander must have responded to this matter, right?" Yan
The latter sentence is actually asking the law and order ghost.
"Indeed."
Ling Linggui nodded and replied: "Well, after Luo An replaced the heads of several important positions in the headquarters of the Demon Suppression Division, he also wanted to replace the heads of the Demon Suppression Division in several counties within the Gyeonggi region.
But at this time, many demons and demons from the Black Lotus Sect appeared in the capital to cause trouble.
These monsters and evil spirits did not attack civilians, but only robbed the spiritual leaders. Emperor Jianwu was extremely angry and scolded Luo An bloody and ordered him to deal with the matter quickly.
Luo An had no choice but to postpone the idea of laying off the head of the local demon suppression department and sent someone to investigate.
But the people he sent either searched here and there but found nothing, or they disappeared just after leaving the city..." Yan
There is no doubt that those who searched and searched without finding anything should be people from the Lu Bing faction.
Most of those who disappeared after leaving the city were Luo An's cronies.
As for Emperor Jianwu, he must have guessed that Lu Bing was causing trouble.
But again, without evidence, even if Emperor Jianwu was unhappy, he could not blame Lu Bing. He could only urge Luo An to resolve the matter as soon as possible and not ruin his grand ceremony.
However, Emperor Jianwu would definitely hold a grudge against Lu Bing because of this incident.
When the big ceremony is over, they will be free to take care of Lu Bing.
But Lu Bing also has his reasons for doing this. Yan
Apart from anything else, if he is left alone, his control over the Demon Suppression Department will definitely be greatly affected, and it will definitely affect the important matter of liaising with courtiers and border generals and carrying out abolishment and establishment of moves!
After listening to Lu Ling Gui's report, Qin Shaoyou sneered again and again:
"Since Emperor Jianwu's only focus is on sacrificing the Mad God, we must give him a big surprise when we return from this trip."
"What's the big surprise?" Zhu Xiucai joked.
"Of course I want to ruin this sacrifice and completely ruin his dream of becoming an immortal!"
