Ma Si finally figured out why Qin Weibai felt familiar yet strange to him.
This feeling quickly became clear in just a few sentences, and then became certainty.
Qin Weibai is indeed different.
In other words, Qin Weibai now is a little different from Qin Weibai in the past two years.
Because of this, Ma Si felt that the current Qin Weibai was a bit strange.
But this feeling is also somewhat familiar.
Familiarity comes from memory.
Qin Weibai in this state...
It’s Qin Weibai during the Palace of Reincarnation.
Ma Si and Qin Weibai were not actually familiar with each other, but as Li Huacheng's secretary, he had contact with Qin Weibai in both periods, so he could distinguish them clearly.
There was no Li Tianlan, there was no Donghuang Palace, and during the period when there was no Donghuang Palace, Qin Weibai was the number two figure in the Reincarnation Palace, and this was only in name.
The will of the Lord of the Palace of Reincarnation is silent most of the time.
At that time, Qin Weibai could almost be said to be the highest will of the Reincarnation Palace.
Such Qin Weibai is sharp, sharp, perfect, indifferent, and sharp-edged. She is very young, but no one in the dark world dares to underestimate her existence.
Her existence can almost be said to be a well-deserved goddess.
Who were the people pursuing Qin Weibai at that time?
He is Wang Xiaoyao of the Beihai Wang clan, he is Qianqian Qian, the general of the Nanmei Chiang clan, and they are one after another figures who represent power and strength in the dark world.
They longed for Qin Weibai's favor and used various means to pursue it, but they never got any response.
She was naturally proud, aloof, cold and ethereal, as if she could not eat the fireworks of the world. During that period, she was a woman who could be equated with the four words "Qingguoqingcheng".
When did she start changing?
It was after Li Tianlan appeared.
That kind of change was silent and natural. The more dazzling Li Tianlan became, the quieter she became.
Quietly, without the dark world realizing it, Li Tianlan and Qin Weibai completed their transformation in the light.
Li Tianlan’s name is mentioned more and more often in the dark world.
Qin Weibai is mentioned less and less frequently.
She willingly stayed by Li Tianlan's side, tempered her sharpness, and began to become quiet and indifferent.
This change was so smooth that the entire dark world seemed to have forgotten what Qin Weibai used to be.
So seeing Qin Weibai like this again, that familiar yet unfamiliar feeling...
Ma Si shook his head vigorously and smiled with some complicated thoughts.
Some women are really so strong that they don't need men.
Just like some men don't need women and think that women will only affect the speed at which he draws his sword.
For Qin Weibai, the presence of men seems to only block the bright, charming and extremely dangerous edge of her body.
She is the most perfect woman with Li Tianlan.
She is the most dazzling goddess without Li Tianlan.
The memories in my mind began to revive as the images gradually became clearer.
One thing after another that the Palace of Reincarnation has done in the past begins to become more and more three-dimensional.
Ma Si finally realized a problem.
Qin Weibai is the most suitable person for the position of Palace Master of the East Palace.
The East Palace with her as the palace master lacks Li Tianlan and Li Tianlan's direct lineage, but overall, this East Palace is more like a top-notch version of the Samsara Palace.
This woman fits perfectly with everything that exists in the Eastern Palace.
So even without Li Tianlan, with her presence, the East Palace in the future might be even more difficult than when Li Tianlan was the palace master.
Because she is Qin Weibai.
She really has the confidence and means to face anything.
"If you just use the orders of the parliament to pressure me, then we will have nothing to talk about."
Qin Weibai's voice was quiet and almost elegant, but the content he said was extremely tough: "The East Palace is my and Tianlan's property. Now that Tianlan leaves here, the East Palace will be mine.
I didn’t do anything against the rules, and neither did the East Palace. The council now wants to give me a so-called first deputy palace owner without saying anything. Why? Why are you the council? Or is it that the council thinks that I am a newly divorced person?
Are women easy to bully?"
"no..."
Ma Si was startled and subconsciously smiled bitterly.
What Qin Weibai said happened to be something he couldn't understand.
Once Li Tianlan leaves the East Palace, his killing of Li Kuangtu cannot be regarded as the East Palace's fault. In this case, the Parliament has no reason to interfere with the development of the East Palace. Even in a short period of time, the Parliament cannot even find a decent excuse.
arrive.
If the parliament really wants to force him into the parliament regardless of anything, what does this mean?
Strictly speaking, the East Palace is Qin Weibai's private property. Qin Weibai has not committed any crime, and has not affected the interests of Zhongzhou. Without Li Tianlan's excuse, why should the parliament rob Qin Weibai's private wealth?
"Since it's not the case, then let's go."
Qin Weibai said lightly: "I'm very busy, you should be able to see that."
Of course it was impossible for Ma Si to leave, just to leave in such a dejected manner. Not to mention those potential competitors who would block his path in the future, even Li Huacheng would probably question his ability. This is the most disappointing thing.
Li Huacheng's letter was a stepping stone. The door was now open. He didn't do anything and just went back. Ma Si even looked down on himself.
In fact, both Li Huacheng and Ma Si can be sure that coming to the East Palace is a crisis operation.
The so-called crisis naturally involves the coexistence of danger and opportunity, and both good and bad outcomes can be extreme.
If Qin Weibai insists on disowning him as the first deputy palace master of the East Palace, judging from the current situation, with Li Tianlan leaving, at least in the short term, the council will have nothing to do against Qin Weibai.
The East Palace with Li Tianlan was the prototype of the dynasty, but without Li Tianlan, the East Palace was still a behemoth. Zhongzhou could only appease the East Palace for the time being.
But Ma Si firmly believed that he had a chance.
Because Qin Weibai is not Li Tianlan, she will not even bother to look at the situation, and she will know the consequences of denying herself.
The first is to completely fall out with the academics.
If Ma Si's future is ruined, Li Huacheng will be disappointed in him, but his anger will undoubtedly be poured out on Donghuang Palace.
To this day, when no one dares to look down upon Li Huacheng, the speaker's anger is definitely not what Qin Weibai is willing to bear.
Secondly, once Qin Weibai makes a denial, it is tantamount to denying the entire parliament. At present, she does seem to be reasonable, but some things happen to be the most unreasonable. I believe Qin Weibai can also understand this.
.
Finally, the East Palace and the New Group are still one and the same today.
The new group and the college are in the honeymoon period. Both parties have great plans in the future. They are each other's closest partners. Based on this, it is difficult for Qin Weibai to refuse Ma Si's arrival.
If Qin Weibai ignores it, Ma Si will naturally be ruined, and it will be difficult for him to make a comeback in the future.
But if Qin Weibai agrees to Ma Si's position, everything will be different.
Tiannan will officially join Zhongzhou.
For the Parliament, this was a great achievement in opening up territory and expanding the territory, and for the first governor of Tiannan, it was also an opportunity to leave his name in history.
Due to some reasons, Tiannan will almost never establish the position of Speaker in the short term.
The governor, for a period of time, is the person who has an overview of the overall situation.
This resume alone is enough to pave the way for Ma Si to become a top powerful congressman.
And as long as he can play his role in Tiannan, he will become the core figure connecting the new group and the academy in the future. The value of this is even higher, and becoming a director is simply a certainty.
This is a real big gamble.
Ma Si has already walked to the gambling table with his chips.
Qin Weibai's current affirmation or denial will result in heaven and hell.
"Palace Master should know that His Majesty has already left the East Palace."
Ma Si spoke in a low voice.
Qin Weibai looked down at the documents in front of him and said nothing.
"I came to the East Palace because His Majesty has already left."
Qin Weibai still didn't speak. She never liked listening to nonsense.
"In fact, you should be aware."
Ma Si let out a long breath: "In the past, when His Majesty was here, the Parliament could tolerate the development of the East Palace. That was because in the eyes of the Parliament, His Majesty the East Emperor was one of its own.
Regarding his life experience, whether from the perspective of the Li family or the Dongcheng family, it is difficult for the parliament to regard him as an outsider.
Coupled with His Majesty the Eastern Emperor's strong personal strength and his ties to Zhongzhou, the Council allowed His Majesty the Eastern Emperor to take control of the Eastern Palace..."
He raised his head and looked at Qin Weibai: "But you, Palace Master, are different. The Reincarnation Palace has not been a power in Central Continent since it first appeared.
Your identity is also more sensitive.
The East Palace became even more sensitive with His Majesty's departure.
The facts are obvious. Whether it is Tiannan or the East Palace, they are now the top priority of the parliament...
Frankly speaking, the Parliament does not have a high degree of trust in you, and the Parliament will not allow a person whose position has always been somewhat ambiguous to control a super power at his doorstep. You should understand what I mean."
"I do not understand."
Qin Weibai looked at Ma Si, half-smiling but not smiling.
"The parliament will definitely interfere in the internal affairs of the Eastern Palace."
Ma Si smiled bitterly and said: "Some things don't need to be justified. From the perspective of the parliament, ensuring the interests of the parliament is the biggest reason.
The reality is the cruelest. If you are one of our own, then you should accept the arrangement of the parliament. If you regard yourself as an outsider, the parliament does not need to be reasonable.
In the short term, the parliament may not do anything drastic, but if I go back now, I can still be the secretary of the speaker, but the parliament will never be willing to give in. They will send people here again, or use other means.
.
The East Palace without His Majesty the East Emperor is too dangerous and the council will not give up. From your point of view, the council will only go further and further."
"It's ridiculous."
Han Xinyan couldn't help but sneer: "When he stayed in the East Palace, you thought he was the most dangerous. Now that he has left the East Palace, you feel that the East Palace is dangerous. Is the Council so insecure?"
Han Xinyan's words were hard to hear.
But the facts are the facts.
So Ma Si ignored it and just looked at Qin Weibai: "I am the best solution. Because of my identity, I am the person who knows Speaker Li Huacheng's intentions best. Palace Master, you must believe me. I am in the East Palace.
Anyone would be much, much better off at East Palace."
Qin Weibai was silent for a while and said calmly: "So, what is your position?"
"position?"
Ma Si narrowed his eyes and said without any hesitation: "Of course it is to protect Speaker Li Huacheng's interests and implement his will."
He was talking about Li Huacheng.
There was no mention of the academic school, nor of the East Palace.
Qin Weibai seemed to smile and whispered softly: "Then, what is Li Huacheng's will?"
Ma Si hesitated for a moment and shook his head subconsciously.
Under Qin Weibai's gaze, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "At least from the current point of view... Speaker Li Huacheng's will... is to ensure the interests of His Majesty the Eastern Emperor."
After a pause, he continued: "This is what the Speaker personally ordered me to do before I came here."
