A knock on the door interrupted the communication between the two people in the office.
Seeing that Ouyang didn't say anything, Gan Yu said to the door: "Come in."
Click——
The office door was opened, and Xiaohe, who had the courage to knock on the door, walked in.
Just as she entered the door and felt the atmosphere in the room, the smile on her face froze.
Even at close range, the pressure on Ouyang still made her breathless.
"Sir, everyone from the Eight Gates has arrived. Do we need to let them in now?"
Nervous, fearful, panicked, and many other emotions made her just want to finish what she had to do quickly, so that she didn't even notice that she was speaking to Ouyang.
Ouyang did not overstep his authority. Although the flames of anger in his heart burned very high, he was not overwhelmed by anger under Lin Zijue.
Ever since he stepped into Yue Hai Pavilion, he has always been very restrained.
"Let them in." Gan Yu opened his mouth to come to the rescue.
"OK."
Xiaohe hurriedly turned around and went out, letting people in.
The door was fully opened this time, and Chang Yuan, who was standing at the front, walked into the office one after another with the heads of the eight doors.
Their faces were still a little confused at this moment, but they were more concerned.
After meeting at Yuehai Pavilion, Chang Yuan also briefly talked about some situations, but since he didn't know what happened, he could only make general remarks such as "something might have happened."
Even though the situation was unclear, they also made a tacit agreement to become allies and advance and retreat together.
But when they actually entered the office, they still couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"I've met Mr. Ouyang."
Everyone lined up to salute at first, and then stood there, a little at a loss.
They were at a loss because none of the three Ouyang people paid attention to them.
Chang Yuan looked around, then said to Ouyang again: "Lord Tianshu, I have found them."
Ouyang stood there the whole time. He hugged his chest and watched calmly after the other party came in.
Seeing Chang Yuan speak again, he nodded noncommittally, pointed at the documents that were taller than one person next to him, and said: "Look for it yourself, share it, and see which documents are yours."
"Yes." Everyone responded.
They looked at each other wordlessly, knowing in their hearts that it really didn't look like anything good was going to happen today.
They stepped forward carefully and silently began to rummage through the documents.
Don't dare to make too much noise during the process.
They have already felt the low pressure in the office. Although they still don't know what happened, they can only be careful now and pray that they will not be the first to be pulled out to face Qixing's accusation.
Ouyang didn't care what those people were thinking. After making way for them to look for documents, he motioned to Gan Yu to step aside.
Gan Yu's office is very large, with one wall covered entirely with floor-to-ceiling windows, which provides good lighting.
The two came to the window, and Ouyang asked: "How is it? How have you considered my proposal?"
What Ouyang is talking about is what was discussed just before the people from Eight Gates arrived.
Ouyang won't touch the reform issue now, and Gan Yu sticks to his bottom line very tightly.
So Ouyang talked to her about the assessment issue that had been put aside before.
He now wants to solve this problem of various departments taking advantage of each other.
Originally, the two of them were almost finished talking, but they were interrupted by people from the Eight Gates, so now Ouyang pulled Gan Yu over to ask again.
After Gan Yu was silent for a while, he finally agreed.
"Okay. I'll organize the people right now."
After he really agreed, Gan Yu felt a little empty in his heart.
Although she had figured it out before and took the initiative to make some suggestions to Ouyang, those were not her original intentions.
As a loyal follower of Morax, Gan Yu very much did not want this kind of situation where human beings would escape from the control of the emperor.
But facing Ouyang, she always had no choice.
The appointment of Tianshu Xing was made by the emperor, and she was the one who begged for the appointment. It seems that the current situation was caused by her.
Gan Yu looked at Ouyang in front of her. Ouyang was now much taller than her, and he was no longer the child who threw herself into her arms and acted coquettishly.
After she finished speaking, she lowered her head with a complicated look on her face and turned around to leave with her mind in chaos.
Walked out of the office and prepared to organize people to assist Ouyang's proposal.
Standing by the window, Ouyang bathed in the sunshine, looked at the empty Yujing Terrace outside the window, and waited for a while.
After everyone in the eight gates had searched for their own information, he turned around and said, "Have you found everything?"
Everyone looked at each other wordlessly and carefully replied: "Yes."
After receiving the response, Ouyang did not speak. He walked to Gan Yu's chair in the office with a calm face and sat down, taking his time to look at the people standing across from the desk.
Silently, Chang Yuan and others felt even more pressure.
What they don't know is that at this moment Ouyang is resisting the urge to attack the adults directly.
Especially seeing that they are still a little confused now, it really has the effect of adding fuel to the fire.
"I haven't been in charge of Seven Stars for a long time. In a few days, it will only be two months." Ouyang's tone was calm, as if he was talking about irrelevant things.
He ignored the confused looks on Chang Yuan's and others' faces and continued speaking on his own.
"I've just done a few things these days."
"The first thing is to relieve the crisis of the Strata Abyss, but I am ashamed to say that although this matter has passed, it has not been completely eliminated."
"The second thing, the reform of Qianyan Army, has now begun to be implemented."
"The third thing is the expansion of the school that is about to begin."
"I won't give examples of other things, such as negotiating with those ore merchants and resolving the civil unrest in Liyue Port."
After saying this, Ouyang's gentle tone changed and he asked coldly: "So everyone, what have you done these days?!"
hiss--
Going to suffer!!!
After hearing this, everyone knew why they came to find them this time.
At the same time, when they understood, they felt bitter in their hearts and opened their mouths not knowing how to speak.
Did they do something?
Of course it was done, otherwise Liyue would have gone into chaos long ago.
But after Ouyang told what he had done, they already understood what Ouyang was referring to.
The document in their hands was like an extremely heavy boulder at this moment, and also like a scalding fireball, so hot that they wanted to throw it away.
Ouyang looked at them and raised his voice slightly for the first time: "What's wrong? Are you mute? Speak!"
"Back, back to your lord..." Chang Yuan responded first while restraining his trembling.
He pinched the document in his hand, sweat dripping down his face, but he didn't bother to wipe it off now.
He felt that he could save a little more, so he spoke first: "This, matters related to this Hai Lantern Festival were originally hosted by Yu Hengxing."
"Now that Master Keqing is away, I, the General Affairs Department, was afraid of mistakes after taking over, so the progress has been a little slower, but I am not lazy, sir!"
Chang Yuan tried his best to remove it, but in short, he died as a fellow Taoist but not as a poor Taoist.
Now I don't care about other people in this situation.
"Ah."
Ouyang curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled, but his smile without any warmth seemed as far away as falling into an ice cellar.
He immediately lowered his head. The trembling in his body could no longer be restrained. The alarm bells in his head were blaring loudly as he trembled, and he wanted to escape from here.
Ouyang stood up and asked Chang Yuan, who was already shivering: "Keqing is not here, so it is difficult for the General Affairs Department to take over, isn't it?"
"No, it's not..."
Chang Yuan's tone was almost pleading. He wanted to say something more, but looking at Ouyang approaching, he couldn't say the next words.
Standing in front of Chang Yuan, Ouyang looked at him condescendingly and asked: "No matter how big or small, I write an application to solve all the problems. Do you think this is efficient?"
"And you guys, just write an application when something happens, so what does Liyue want you to do?"
"Where's the solution? Where's the plan? There's nothing, just writing applications. Is that how you do things?"
thump--
thump--
As Ouyang finished speaking, Chang Yuan knelt down directly.
All the people in charge of the eight gates also knelt down.
Ouyang kept talking and began to call names one by one.
"Your Shenglu Hall writes applications every day. Don't you know what's going on in the Layer Rock Abyss? Can it be opened at will? Without the materials there, your Shenglu Hall can't survive, right?"
"What's wrong with you Huishan Hall? There is only one mineral vein in the Layeryan Abyss in the entire Liyue, right? I wonder if you can help Ke Qing arrange the miners who have been sent out? The exploration of the Layeryan Abyss is left to the fools.
You guys come here every day to ask about the progress. If you are so interested, why don’t you apply to go down and see for yourself?”
"You, Yin Yuan Hall, are still led by me, but what did you do in the end? You were asked to stabilize prices, and you did it. Then what? Is this good? After that, you don't have to worry about the lives of the people?
Is it difficult to send people to investigate?! Do you need me to remind you every day?”
"Your Wangshan Hall..."
Ouyang scolded them one by one, and the heads of the eight gates were frightened by the faint pressure of the devil. At this moment, they all knelt on the ground, trembling, and said nothing.
After a round of scolding, Ouyang scolded everyone again: "If you don't know how to do things, don't occupy your seat. Qixing has to think about how to solve everything, so why do we need you?"
"Now, get back here immediately. I hope to see a planned and planned course of action on my desk tomorrow morning!"
"Otherwise, you can resign by yourself tomorrow!"
Everyone who was dripping with cold sweat breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and finally got over it.
He quickly agreed.
"Yes, my lord!"
"Okay. Okay."
"We'll go back and do it right away!"
As they talked, they climbed up with difficulty and prepared to leave.
But Ouyang spoke again at this moment: "I have already agreed with Gan Yu that she will send someone to your office today to supervise your work."
"Don't let me know that you will hand over your own affairs to your subordinates after you return. If so, it means that your abilities are just like that. You should also be more conscious and get out of Liyue's administrative unit."
"do you understand?"
this...
They all wanted to leave immediately, but Ouyang's last request really embarrassed them.
I wanted to explain a few words, but I didn't dare.
The footsteps of leaving stopped.
The most painful thing in my heart is Chang Yuan. If I really do this plan by myself, one night will definitely not be enough.
Although others are better, the situation is similar.
Now they no longer dared to look at each other secretly. Just when the atmosphere was getting awkward, the door was knocked again.
Knock knock knock——
There was a crisp knock on the door, and then the door opened, revealing Gan Yu.
She first took a look at the situation in the room, and then said to Ouyang: "Ouyang, Ningguang is here. Do you see him?"
Um?!
Ouyang raised his eyebrows when he heard this, feeling a little strange in his heart.
Why is she here?
Rescue?!
－－－－－－Digression－－－－－
Is this chapter strange? I revised it twice, but I always felt that something was wrong with the writing, but I couldn’t figure it out.
