Chapter 626: Immortals and heroes emerge in large numbers, and the world has military power
Naturally, it was impossible for the imperial general in charge of the army and the director of the Department of Arms and Horses to openly declare rebellion at the court meeting.
Everything that just happened must have a reason!
Tie Tang discussed with everyone for a while and then did not go further into the topic. He knew that someone would definitely come looking for him.
as expected.
About half an hour later, it seemed that the court meeting had ended.
A supervisory envoy in black clothes visited Taoyuan and invited Tie Tang and Feng Bingyao to go to the Supervisory Hall together.
This was something Tie Tang had only guessed about.
However, the visitor actually invited Feng Bingyao, which was beyond his expectation.
Looking at the unsmiling colleague, Tie Tang asked softly: "Why did the Master of Shang Palace invite Bingyao?"
The affairs of the Supervisory Palace have always been disliked by outsiders intervening.
Although Feng Bingyao is now extremely powerful and dominates all the masters in the Holy City, she is backed by Wu Mu and has a father who is the head of Jiangdu Palace.
But……
She is just a white person in officialdom.
In other words, she did not hold any position in the Great Shang Dynasty, and only had a playful resume in Qingshui City and Street Department.
With Shang Yue's status and his angry performance just now, he had no reason to invite Feng Bingyao to go with him.
The inspector who came to invite him gave a wry smile, raised his hands and responded: "Master Tie, the palace master's thoughts... how can we guess it?
I am just following my orders, if there is nothing else... please go there quickly."
Tie Tang glanced at Feng Bingyao, who nodded. The two of them took a step forward and arrived at the gate of the Holy Capital Supervisory Hall, displaying the fastest speed in the world.
The background of the familiar Overwatch Hall is dark and deep, just like the mood of the master of the first hall inside.
Gloomy, solemn!
The two of them stepped into the door, took a few steps, and arrived at the main hall.
Tie Tang glanced down and understood a little bit why he invited Feng Bingyao to come with him.
Wu Mu is here too!
Even if he couldn't figure out who the former director of the Dongcheng Military and Horse Department was and what his powers were.
But at least he knows...
The other party must be under Wu Mu's command and under Wu Mu's jurisdiction.
In this way, things become a little more subtle.
Tie Tang cupped his hands, looked around, and saluted the group of people sitting in front of him, feeling surprised and uncertain in his heart.
"Everyone...are you here to greet Tie?"
Above the main hall.
Sitting there were the most powerful people in the entire Shang Dynasty.
Wu Mu, Sangong, the three masters of the Supervisory Hall, the director of the Inspection Department, the six great arresters, and the witch censor who controls the weapons in the Purple Wall Hall.
As soon as he saw this sorcerer, Tie Tang couldn't help but feel a little curious in his eyes.
Just because when the Yu family analyzed the world structure before, Yu Wanwan did not include the imperial witchcraft as one of the supreme detachments of the imperial court.
But Tie Tang saw with his own eyes Wu Yushi, Zuo Xiang, Human King and others in Xuandu City, fighting against the transcendent Supreme of Shenzun Palace.
Goodbye now.
Wu Yushi's cultivation strength could not be hidden from Tie Tang.
Immortal Emperor Realm!
Although he was a peak Immortal Emperor... but in Xuandu City that day, it was obvious that a peak Immortal Emperor was not even close to competing against the transcendent Supreme of Shenzun Palace.
Being swept away by Tie Tang's sharp gaze, Wu Yushi stood up from his chair and said with a smile: "What? Could it be that Wu has a flower growing on his body? It actually attracted the attention of the Holy Lord."
Tie Tang knew that the other party was just joking, and realized that he was too abrupt. He waved his hand and said with a smile, "Master Wu was joking. I have not thanked Master Wu for helping me during the battle in Xuandu."
"Wu is only doing it for the common people in the world, and he doesn't dare to take credit for it."
While the two were talking, Shang Yue, who was sitting at the top, waved his hand: "Okay, we have other important matters to discuss today, so please take your seats."
Feng Bingyao looked at Wu Mu, who nodded slightly. She was not restrained, found a seat at will, and sat down comfortably.
Tie Tang glanced at everyone and sat down silently. Looking at today's situation...it seemed that Shang Yue was the main one.
This is easy to see from the seats of everyone present.
Shang Yue is in the center and at the top. Sangong Wu and Mu, the director of the inspection department, the two deputy palace masters Qu Bo and Wan Lin, Wu Yushi and others are all surrounding Shang Yue in a semicircle.
If you think about it carefully, it's not difficult to understand.
It's not because this place is the Supervisory Hall, but because Shang Yue is the only detached supreme being here.
Although the others are also first-rate beings in the human world, and each of them has a high position of authority, after all, they are not transcendent enough to be able to overwhelm the others.
"Everyone is here. If you have any ideas, you may wish to speak freely." Shang Yue's voice was extremely thick, mixed with obvious anger, which was completely different from Tie Tang's impression in the past.
Apparently what happened at the court meeting had made this human tyrant really angry.
Unexpectedly, after he opened his mouth, everyone was silent. Even Taibao, Qu Bo and Wan Lin did not speak.
Tie Tang didn't even know what happened, so he naturally had no idea.
He did not go around the corner and asked directly: "Palace Master, why did you get angry at the meeting and trigger the sword to kill the immortal?"
Shang Yue raised his eyelids, and the world-burning fire was reflected in his eyes below.
Bang!
The fine sapphire chair was grabbed by Shang Yue and the armrests were broken. He said angrily: "That bitch Shi Weijian actually proposed to elect another human emperor. He is really a rebellious minister and a traitor who subverts the imperial court. If Jiang Yong hadn't stopped him, I would have
We must kill him on the spot."
What?
Deep looks of shock appeared on the faces of Tie Tang and Feng Bingyao at the same time.
They had discussed various possibilities before, but no matter how much they guessed, they never thought it would be this!
At this time, the Taibao who had been silent asked aloud: "You two... what do you think of this matter?"
Tie Tang and Feng Bingyao were both shocked by this sudden news, and fell into deep thought for a moment.
Above the main hall of Nuo Da, there were only a few inaudible sounds of breathing.
The Pixiu incense burners at the four corners emitted curling aromas, like smoke and mist, which flew to the dome and turned into pale white clouds, gradually dissipating.
A few moments.
Feng Bingyao's cold voice sounded in the hall, shocking everyone.
"In my opinion..."
"It's not entirely impossible!"
As soon as these words came out, Shang Yue was immediately dissatisfied, and he angrily shouted: "You are outrageous. This idea is simply nonsense."
"This is not a court meeting, why are you angry?" Wu Mu spoke, brushing away the evil spirit that Shang Yue subconsciously exuded.
"Since it is a discussion, all opinions should be accommodated. Moreover, Yao'er is not a member of the court. She is on the outside. Maybe she can see it more clearly than us."
Even the Taibao offered help: "This is not a one-word ceremony. You did go a little too far today. Your mood is unbalanced. Please adjust it first."
"Dong Shu..." Shang Yue turned his head and looked at the Taibao with some surprise.
Of the many important ministers present, the only ones that Shang Yue truly considered his own were Qu Bo, Wan Lin and Taibao.
He couldn't trust other officials, and he didn't dare to.
Therefore, he did not have to listen to Wu Mu's words, but Taibao's words needed to be carefully considered.
Shang Yue calmed down and glanced at Feng Bingyao, not getting angry again because of her previous words.
The reason for inviting the other party here is just because this person has become more and more popular recently and is already a presence that cannot be ignored in the world.
Coupled with the intricate connections around her, it is enough to affect the Chaoge pattern and even the entire world.
As for Tietang...
What's more, it is an existence that attracts the attention of the entire Holy City Chaoge, and no one can ignore it.
His opinion is very important!
After Feng Bingyao put forward his opinion, although it caused some shock, what everyone present cared about more... was Tie Tang's idea!
Wisps of extremely powerful eyes were cast on Tie Tang, quietly waiting for him to speak.
After a while.
Tie Tang, who was sitting on the stone chair, straightened his body, leaned forward slightly, glanced at everyone, and said unhurriedly: "Although Tie is an official in the same court as you, he doesn't know the pattern of court songs, and he doesn't understand the beauty of court meetings.
Do you dare to ask any gentleman to open your mouth and explain something to me?
Especially this Director Shi...
Where does it come from and what authority does it have?”
He did not express his feelings directly like Feng Bingyao, but instead asked about the affairs of the court.
This made everyone miss their expectations, and they couldn't help but secretly nod, knowing that Tie Tang's move was actually more prudent.
If you don't even understand the structure of the court, you may make jokes if you speak randomly.
It is obviously not enough to judge every word spoken in the court meeting based on secular concepts alone.
It is necessary to truly understand both the top and the bottom and the inside and outside, and understand the identity of each person. Only then can we see through each person's every move what undercurrents are surging beneath the deep pool.
"Feng Li, Shi Weijian is also your subordinate, why don't you explain something to him." The person who spoke was one of the three princes, Taifu Wang Yongchang, who belonged to the Tianwen Sect and had a decisive position in the world of human literature.
When the Immortal Court was attacking the Holy Capital, Tai Shen, the human king, rebelled. Tian Wenzong even dared to write on the spot, preparing to deprive Tai Xin of his status as human king. This shows the importance of his writing and his high status.
In the words of Taifu...
The subordinate relationship between Shi Weijian and Wu Mu was specifically pointed out, as if he was afraid that Tie Tang would not know about it, and in the eyes of others, it seemed that he was deliberately misleading.
Wu Mu did not explain or refuse, and explained to Tie Tang: "The soldiers and horses in the world all respect the emperor.
Under the human emperor, the left prime minister has no power to control the army, but the right prime minister has the responsibility of commanding the troops.
Under the two conditions, it is true that I am in charge of all the governments in the world and mobilize the troops and horses of each county. If I hold the True Dragon Soldier Talisman, I can command the troops and horses of the world.
Except for the Human Emperor... even the Right Prime Minister can only interfere with part of the military power."
Hearing these words, Tie Tang frowned slightly. He had always known that Wu Mu had great power, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful that it was difficult to even check and balance the two prime ministers.
Thinking of Shi Weijian's actions, I naturally had a new perspective in my mind.
Seemingly seeing his expression, Wu Mu continued: "But there are exceptions to this! For example, the three soldiers of Ziyuan under the command of Wu Yushi... I have no jurisdiction over them."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yushi on the side immediately nodded towards Tie Tang, confirming Wu Mu's words.
"As for the Five Cities Military and Horse Division that protects the Holy Capital... it is true that it is nominally under the jurisdiction of Feng, but who has the real authority... No need for Feng to say anything, everyone here must know it."
As soon as this statement came out, Tie Tang immediately knew how powerful it was.
Officials are officials, and management is management.
There seems to be no difference between the two, but in fact, in an area like the Holy Capital Chaoge, where overlords emerge one after another, they will have completely different impacts.
Tie Tang had already learned from Feng Bingyao that Director Shi, who commanded the Dongcheng Military and Horse Division, was the ultimate overlord at the pinnacle of the Immortal Emperor Realm.
This kind of person is completely different from the generals in other capitals and counties.
Even Feng Li and Wu Mu, a great businessman personally conferred by the Human Emperor, were not able to hold the power that belonged to them.
the reason is simple!
Wu Mu is only in the Immortal Emperor realm.
It's hard to say who is stronger between him and Shi Weijian, but it's obviously not an easy thing to make a peak Immortal Emperor obey another peak Immortal Emperor.
When the Human Emperor is here, everything is calm, military symbols are everywhere, and orders are carried out as soon as possible.
But when the Human Emperor is away... things have obviously changed again.
Tie Tang tapped the handrail with his index finger and asked calmly: "May I ask Wu Mu, are the directors of the Five Cities Military and Horse Department all people like Shi Weijian?"
"That's right!" Wu Mu did not deny it, and a hint of sadness rarely appeared on his majestic face: "Shi Weijian is in charge of the East City, Doulu Yan is in charge of the South City, Hong Tianba is in the West City, and Li Shun is in the North City. The four directors are all like this.
I exist like this.
Especially the Douluo Yan from Nancheng... he practices the side sect traditions of the Gujiang Doulu clan that are never taught to outsiders.
His strength.
Maybe better than me.
Tie Tang, if you were to change places, would you be able to control such a person?"
It was originally a very embarrassing thing for him to be unable to control the power he should have, but Wu Mu said it openly in front of everyone without any hesitation.
Others did not look down upon it in the slightest. They all knew how deep the water inside... was.
"Hiss~"
After Wu Mu said this, Tie Tang couldn't help but take a breath and understood Wu Mu's dilemma.
The officials under his command are even stronger than himself. Under such circumstances, even if it were him, he would not be able to do better than Wu Mu.
He did not respond to Wu Mu's question, but instead asked, "Which Taoism does that Doulu clan practice? Is the founder of the Taoism still alive in the world?"
"The Gujiang Doulu clan is a clan that has been passed down for millions of years. Although they are not as good as the Fang family and Yu family today, their origins are extremely ancient.
The Taoist tradition of their clan is called "Jiang Yue Canon", which is a side sect that is more feminine. The specific situation... may not be known until Tie Shengzun has tried it himself.
As for the founder of this Taoism, he is definitely the ancestor of the Doulu clan. Whether he is still alive in the world, I am afraid only the Doulu clan himself knows, and outsiders have no way of knowing."
The person who opened his mouth to explain was located on Tietang's side. He was the oldest-looking person present, about sixty years old.
Wearing a light white official robe, hanging on his waist is a weapon that Tie Tang is very familiar with.
Qiushui Yanfei Dao!
Everyone present, except Tie Tang and Feng Bingyao, are all supreme overlords in the Immortal Emperor Realm, including Shang Yue, the transcendent supreme being.
It seems that such a person would not wear ordinary weapons at all. The weapons he wields are at least immortal weapons, and it is not surprising that they are even extremely immortal weapons.
The shining Qiu Shui Yan Fei Dao undoubtedly showed the identity of the person who spoke.
Director of Dashang Inspection Department, Fang Yi!
The Great Shang Dynasty had many director positions in various official ranks, such as the director of the Five Cities Military and Horse Department just mentioned, as well as the Salt Department, Gold Department, Silver Department, etc., and even the Fengcian Department.
But if we really want to talk about the farthest, deepest influence, the greatest authority, and the strongest, it will not be the Salt Department, nor the Military and Horse Department, nor the Gold and Silver Department, nor even the Medical Examination Department.
But the Inspection Department!
It is impossible to calculate how many agents and agents there are in the entire human world. It is unclear.
If you add in the minzhuang, white men, laborers, etc. in the major police systems, there will be countless stars in the sky.
The area and manpower under the jurisdiction of the Inspection Department even exceeds that of the merchant army. However, most of these people are of low strength, which makes the Inspection Department appear to be weak.
But if we really talk about power.
This director of the Inspection Department——
It can be said to be a real world of power!
Tie Tang, who was a police officer, naturally had a deep understanding of the authority involved in the Inspection Department. He was not familiar with the director of the Inspection Department and had no friendship with him.
At this moment, Fang Yi spoke, attracting his attention.
"Thanks to Director Fang for clarifying my doubts. Speaking of which, Tie Mou also served under Director Fang in the past. You and I are destined to be together. Please don't tease me in the name of the Holy Lord anymore."
"Haha, why do you have to be so modest? But if you don't want to, it's hard to force Fang. You and our Fang family have always had friendships, so how about we treat each other as peers?"
Before Tie Tang could respond, Shang Yue spoke in advance: "Fang Yi, put your little thoughts away, this is not the place for you to have friendship."
The six great arresters sitting around Fang Yi all showed dissatisfaction upon hearing this. The conflict between the Supervisory Hall and the Inspection Department, even if it has reached this point today, cannot be resolved just yet.
Just like the disputes in the court, they exist forever and will not change due to the general trend of the world.
Fang Yi waved his hand indifferently, stopped his subordinates who wanted to refute, and continued: "What the Lord Shang said is absolutely true, I am only answering questions for Governor Tie.
The five cities of the Holy Capital, the Military and Horse Division, all have people in charge in the east, south, west and north. However, the Central City Military and Horse Division has no one to command them at this time.
Now the three princes of Wu and Mu are here, and the three evil tigers... Well, the three palace masters are also here. I think it is better to choose a date than to hit the sun. Why don't we decide on the position of director of the Military and Horse Department of Zhongcheng first, and report to the court tomorrow?
Two phase ruling.
In this way, Director Shi's side...at least has some checks and balances.
