Everyone who heard this question had ugly expressions on their faces. Even though the question was not inherently threatening, just this sentence was already very sharp.
Guo Wentian seemed to have been provoked and snorted angrily, "What does this mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything."
Li Huacheng frowned, "Do you want to die or live? In fact, this question can cover a lot of things.
At least, in Xuanyuan Wushang's understanding, the so-called doomsday is directly related to everyone's life and death, and it is everyone."
Guo Wentian was silent again.
He understood what Li Huacheng meant.
If it is just a matter of personal force out of control, then no matter what, their status is here, and the resources they can use are also here. If they want to save their lives, they have many ways to think about and implement them.
But since Xuanyuan Wushang asked this now, it means that he believes that in the coming doomsday, no matter how many resources they have, no matter how many methods they have, they will not be able to survive.
This is the real apocalypse, not a matter of personal force out of control.
Guo Wentian subconsciously looked around him.
It seems that from the very beginning, the other directors have been in a state of silence, only themselves
Guo Wentian's heart sank and he wanted to say something, but in the end he held back and continued to remain silent.
"We have so little information right now."
Zhou Yunhai, who ranked lowest among the directors, said slowly, "What Xuanyuan Wushang said is that Li Tianlan can provide Zhongzhou with a certain degree of protection. How can he protect Zhongzhou?"
What is the extent of this certain degree of protection?
Under his protection, will Zhongzhou be able to survive this doomsday safely as it is now, or will there be other changes?
Finally, Xuanyuan Wushang invited us to join the Eastern Palace."
He didn't say any more, but obviously he didn't finish the last sentence.
Li Huacheng glanced at him, nodded and said, "Keep talking."
"I'm done."
Zhou Yunhai said, "Xuanyuan Wushang invites us to join the Eastern Palace."
This time everyone understood what he meant.
They sounded Xuanyuan Wushang's invitation, but it was just an invitation. As for what they would do and how they would arrange it after joining the Eastern Palace, Xuanyuan Wushang didn't mention it at all.
But after that meeting, Xuanyuan Wushang and Li Huacheng had a separate communication. Now they both want to know what Xuanyuan Wushang promised in the separate communication.
Li Huacheng smiled bitterly.
He naturally understood what Zhou Yunhai meant.
If the doomsday is really irresistible and the only way to save his life is to join the Eastern Palace, he
They will naturally make a choice for Zhongzhou, allowing Zhongzhou to integrate with the Eastern Palace, with Li Tianlan as the leader.
They are willing to compromise out of desperation, but the question is, what can they get after compromising?
Now they are all directors and giants.
What about after entering the East Palace?
Even if the master of the East Palace is Li Tianlan, can their position still be second only to Li Tianlan?
If the Eastern Palace can also set up a parliament and they are still the directors, then everything will be easy. They have saved Central Continent and their own interests have not been deprived. At the end of the world, what is there to hesitate?
Zhou Yunhai's words represent what everyone else means and are what they are most concerned about at the moment. Rather than saying this is a test, it is better to say it is their request to agree to join the Eastern Palace.
But they think beautifully, but how is it actually possible?
"There will no longer be a parliament."
Li Huacheng said softly.
His very gentle words made several other directors feel their hearts sinking.
Dongcheng Wudi suddenly laughed.
Among everyone present, he can be said to have the most stable mentality. If Zhongzhou and the East Palace are destined to merge, then he really doesn't care if the directors are not directors. After all, the palace owners are his biological sons. Will there be a council in the East Palace?
, it doesn’t matter to him.
"If we merge with the Eastern Palace, there will only be four at the highest position."
Li Huacheng looked at their expressions and said slowly, "Not counting the palace master."
The East Palace covers Central Continent, and the palace owner is supreme. Li Tianlan's character may be indifferent, but the power he holds in his hands will not be less.
The so-called four highest positions are the core roles of assisting the palace lord. When the palace lord's will is in a silent state, these four positions can fully represent the Eastern Palace and handle various matters.
Li Huacheng had a general understanding of this. At least for now, to be precise, while Li Tianlan was still alive, or before he left here, the structure of the East Palace would be very fixed.
Because Li Tianlan is accustomed to the role of hands-off shopkeeper, he doesn't care about things, is too lazy to take care of them, and won't take care of them, so those four positions are relatively the most free, and they are also very close to the current status of a council member.
But this situation only applies when Li Tianlan is the palace master.
In the next generation, after Li Tianlan's heir appears and inherits the East Palace, the authority of the entire East Palace will be concentrated on the new palace owner.
At that time, the integration of Central Continent and the Eastern Palace has also ended, and the entire Central Continent will usher in a new stable structure.
"Four positions"
Guo Wentian's voice was low
He said, "How many can we take?"
His voice was hoarse and dry.
He also understands Li Tianlan's character.
If the palace owner is Li Tianlan, then these four positions are equivalent to the current directors. In name, they have immediate bosses, but in fact they don't, because Li Tianlan is too lazy to interfere in specific matters.
In this way, the importance of these four positions is fully reflected. They now have eight people. How many can they have among these four positions?
Even if you can have four, then with eight people present, how should you arrange the remaining four?
"several?"
Li Huacheng glanced at Guo Wentian inexplicably, "What do you think?" .??.
Guo Wentian didn't seem to notice how complicated Li Huacheng's vision was. He hesitated and said, "Even if we admit Li Tianlan's status as palace lord, there is no doubt that the current decision-making level of the East Palace is still too young. Li Tianlan can be the palace lord.
But I think other important positions should be handed over to people with more experience, which is more beneficial to stabilizing the situation."
Li Huacheng listened silently without any expression.
Guo Wentian wanted to finish the story here, but four positions were a bit too sensitive for eight people. He was afraid that if he were to be subtle at this time, he would be tricked to death if he turned around, so he simply went on to say, "These four positions,
I think the speaker should have at least one, I, I have good energy now, and I can adapt to all kinds of work, I”
The surrounding eyes of various meanings were focused on each other, and Guo Wentian's face and tone became a little unnatural, but he still had the courage to continue speaking, "I think I am qualified to have a position. In addition, there are two positions.
"
The corner of Li Huacheng's mouth twitched, and he looked at Guo Wentian, whose face was red, in confusion.
He said that there will be four locations in the East Palace in the future.
In the end, Guo Wentian actually wanted them all?
Four positions, all of them?!
What kind of diva can give you such courage?
If the East Palace can even agree to this, then what does it mean?
As the palace master, Li Tianlan doesn't care about anything, and all four positions belong to them. So is there any difference between such a fusion and no fusion?
What experience are you talking about? What use can experience have in the apocalypse?
Guo Wentian, who obviously didn't understand the situation, continued to talk. He looked at Zhou Yunhai, nodded and said, "Old Zhou should also have a position. His ability is obvious to all."
"in addition"
His eyes wandered between Ji Wenwen and Wan Qingyun, "There must also be a position in the southeast. This requires the two of them to choose.
Finally, Dongcheng family, Bai family, Zou family, your relationship with Li Tianlan is not a secret. If the palace master is here, I think you can take a step back, so "
His sincere purpose
Just looking at everyone, "What do you think?"
No one spoke.
The study fell into silence again.
The silence this time was different from before. The silence just now was because they were hesitating whether to join the East Palace, but now, everyone is thinking about what will happen after joining the East Palace.
Li Huacheng's expression was complicated, and the look in his eyes fully explained what it means to be unable to express himself in words.
The four positions, one for you, represent the college.
Guo Wentian represents the Prince Group.
The Southeast Group will produce one.
Northern Group has one.
In addition, Li Tianlan, who occupies the position of palace lord, and the wealthy group he represents.
The six major groups turned into the five major groups, and the integration of East Imperial Palace and Zhongzhou was just a name. At best, the name of Zhongzhou was just changed to East Imperial Palace.
Under the doomsday, no one's interests will be harmed, and everything can be said to be happy.
Guo Wentian's thoughts are quite beautiful, but he just wants to eat shit.
The method he proposed cannot be said to be wrong; it is indeed the method most conducive to stabilizing the situation.
But the problem is that the end is approaching, and the survival model of the entire civilization will change. At this time, the interests of major groups must also be considered. This is completely unreasonable behavior.
Why can they still occupy such an important position in the apocalypse? By experience? Or by ability? Where do they get the qualifications?
"That's right"
"cough."
Li Huacheng coughed suddenly, interrupted Wan Qingyun's words, and said softly, "Everyone, don't go off topic. What we are discussing now is the issue of joining the East Palace, not the issue of where we will be after joining the East Palace."
He reminded me tactfully, but the meaning was clear.
Whether to join the East Palace or not is everyone's choice.
The position after joining the East Palace depends on the arrangements of the East Palace.
Everyone joined the East Palace, not to annex the East Palace. No one is qualified to distribute the benefits on behalf of the East Palace.
"If the apocalypse really happens and Li Tianlan can protect Zhongzhou, then we will definitely not refuse, but it is still immature to hand those four positions to some young people, and we still have more experience."
Wan Qingyun said unhappily, "I think we still need to discuss it."
"There is no need to discuss this."
Li Huacheng shook his head, "You take it too much for granted. If we join the East Palace and are lucky enough, I can probably get one of these four positions, but there will only be one for you."
He looked at everyone, including Dongcheng Wudi, "You may have abilities, but your abilities are not what the East Palace needs in the apocalypse."
