Beijing, the top of the Forbidden City, Golden Throne Hall.
In the past, the court was so majestic and solemn that even the officials had to be careful when breathing. Today, it was like a ignited powder keg, and the atmosphere was so solemn that it almost exploded.
A report sent by Azure Prefecture Demon Suppression Division, which was expedited for eight hundred miles and took three spiritual falcons to be burned, was lying quietly on the dragon case.
And His Highness, an old minister with half-white beard and hair, wearing the official robe of a second-grade official, was crying and crying.
"Your Majesty! You have to make the decision for the prince!"
"Blood Butcher Zhao Lie, he is the strong general who followed the prince in the north and south, Divine Sea Realm! The three thousand Blood Wolf Guard under his command are even more like me Great Xia Dynasty's elite division, which was victorious in every battle! Now, in the territory of Azure Prefecture, it was slaughtered to pieces by an unknown Demon Slayer Envoy! No bones left!"
"This beast Beyond Law and Heaven is so cruel and unkind! He treats the laws of my court as nothing, and the prince's personal soldiers as pigs and dogs! If the wind rises, the country will not be a country! I beg your majesty to use the fury of thunder and put that madman Lin Feng to death, punish the nine tribes, and set an example to others! To comfort the prince in heaven... ah, to calm the prince's heart!"
The veteran cried heartbrokenly and spoke with indignation, as if he had witnessed with his own eyes how Lin Feng brutally killed those three thousand "innocent" Blood Wolf Guard.
On the dragon chair, Emperor Xia was wearing a nine-dragon golden robe, his face was as dark as water, and there was no trace of happiness or anger.
Next to him, stood the commander-in-chief Demon Suppression Division, an old man in gray robe with an aura that seemed to be integrated with the heaven and earth.
"Censor Zhou."
The old man in gray robe spoke slowly, his voice was not loud, but it clearly overcame the cries of the old minister.
"You can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense. Azure Prefecture Xiao Xuan's memorial clearly stated."
"The remnant of Moon Worship Cult is so insane that I disguise myself as Blood Wolf Guard and collude with the demons in Grand Demon-Locking Formation. I intend to cooperate inside and outside to subvert Azure Prefecture, release the demons, and bring disaster to the common people! I, Demon Suppression Division Silver Badge Demon Slayer Envoy Lin Feng, fearless in the face of danger, turned the tide, and in the midst of thousands of troops, killed the Dharma King Moon Worship Cult disguised as Zhao Lie, as well as the three thousand demon cultists under his command, saved Grand Demon-Locking Formation, and protected Azure Prefecture's hundreds of millions of people! This is a great achievement, what crime is there?"
Censor Zhou suddenly raised his head and shouted angrily, "What nonsense! How can Blood Wolf Guard's armor and tokens be easily forged? The scale of three thousand people is even more of a lie! This is clearly a lie fabricated by Xiao Xuan in order to protect his subordinates!"
The gray-robed old man smiled faintly, "Oh? According to Censor Zhou, it means that Prince of Runan's personal soldiers left the fiefdom without any reason, brought heavy troops, and attacked our Demon Suppression Division important land, right?"
"This..."
Censor Zhou was suddenly speechless, and cold sweat dripped down his face.
This crime is ten thousand times more serious than "pretending".
The former is because Moon Worship Cult is not doing things well, and the latter is because the prince intends to rebel!
"Humph, you are so eloquent!"
Another general came out with a loud voice, "Even if Moon Worship Cult is really disguised, then why didn't Lin Feng survive? Three thousand people, not a single one was left alive! How can such a cruel and easy-to-kill person take on the important responsibility of Demon Slayer Envoy?"
The old man in gray robe didn't even raise his eyelids.
"Evils are evil, and everyone has to punish them. I, Demon Suppression Division, have always used thunderous means to eliminate the weeds and eliminate future troubles. Do we still want to invite those demons to sit down and have a cup of tea to influence them to abandon evil and do good? General Wang, are you teaching me, Demon Suppression Division, how to do things?"
"You!"
General Wang was choked and his face turned red.
Above the court, there was a quarrel with each other.
One side is Prince of Runan's party members installed in the DPRK.
On the other side is the royalist faction headed by Demon Suppression Division.
Everyone knows what the truth is.
But the truth is never important in the face of power.
What matters is who has a bigger fist and whose principles are stronger.
After a long time, Emperor Xia sat on the dragon chair and lightly tapped the armrest.
Boom.
There was a soft sound, and the entire court fell silent for an instant.
"That's enough."
Emperor Xia's majestic gaze swept across the audience and said slowly, "I believe in Demon Suppression Division, and I also believe in Xiao Xuan's report. Moon Worship Cult If you are a traitor, your heart can be punished. Blood Wolf Guard's reputation for loyalty and bravery is known to the world, so how could he do such a treasonous and unethical thing? This matter must be a trick of the devil."
As soon as these words came out, the officials from the Prince of Runan faction turned pale in an instant.
Your Majesty, it's settled.
"But..."
Emperor Xia changed the topic, "Although Lin Feng has great merits, he is too murderous, acts recklessly, and is embarrassing to many people. If he stays in a comfortable place like Azure Prefecture, he will only be arrogant based on his merits and may cause disaster."
The old man in gray robe understood clearly and bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, you are wise."
"I heard that Southern Prefecture Demon Suppression Division has been weak for a long time, demons are rampant, and Moon Worship Cult's remaining forces are even more entangled. The local Demon Slayer Envoy has been defeated repeatedly and lost troops and generals. It has become a serious problem for me Great Xia Dynasty."
Emperor Xia's voice exudes an unquestionable majesty.
"Pass on my will! Azure Prefecture Silver Badge Demon Slayer Envoy Lin Feng. He has done meritorious service in protecting Azure Prefecture. However, he acted excessively and his merits and demerits are balanced. He is specially promoted to Southern Prefecture Demon Suppression Division. Gold Badge Commander, set off today, no mistakes! I hope he will be punished and make meritorious service, and the demon Southern Prefecture will be wiped out as soon as possible, and the world will be restored to the people!"
Once the decree was issued, the whole court was in an uproar.
Prince of Runan officials were stunned for a moment, then sneered with gloating.
Gold Badge Commander?
It sounds like I got a promotion, but that's Southern Prefecture!
Prince of Runan's territory!
The most chaotic, dangerous, and deepest quagmire in the entire Great Xia Dynasty!
Demons are everywhere, and wealthy people are as fierce as dogs.
Not to mention a Divine Sea Realm, even a Crown Convergence Realm can sink in and the skin will peel off!
This is not a reward, this is clearly a banishment to the army, asking him to die!
I would like to give Prince of Runan an explanation.
Demon Suppression Division, on the other hand, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Your Majesty is so wise!
It not only saved Lin Feng, but also gave Prince of Runan a chance to step down, and also lost this evil star to the place where strong medicine is most needed.
Kill three birds with one stone!
The emperor's mind is so terrifying.
Azure Prefecture, Demon Suppression Division.
When the gilded imperial edict was rushed eight hundred miles away by a special messenger, Xiao Xuan was completely stunned.
He looked at the six characters "Southern Prefecture Gold Badge Commander" on the imperial edict, and then looked at Lin Feng next to him who looked innocent as if nothing was wrong, and his mentality completely collapsed.
I just want to divert trouble to the east!
I didn't let you become the boss directly!
Xiao Xuan feels that his world view has been impacted like never before.
He killed the prince's ace army with a knife, and not only was he not punished.
Instead, he directly rose from Silver Badge Demon Slayer Envoy in a county to become the highest official in a state?
This speed of promotion is faster than riding a rocket!
Is there any more heavenly justice?
Is there any more royal method?
Army Breaker, Red Lotus and others were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground.
The look in Lin Feng's eyes has changed from the awe before to the worship of a god.
These are real thighs!
"Lin...Commander Lin..."
Xiao Xuan's voice is a little dry, and he doesn't even dare to call him by his first name now.
"Master Xiao, you're welcome."
Lin Feng patted his shoulder and smiled as warmly as the spring breeze, "From now on, Azure Prefecture and Southern Prefecture will be brothers. We need to move around more and communicate more."
What a waste of communication! Laozi I don't want to see you again in this life!
Xiao Xuan roared crazily in his heart, but a smile uglier than crying appeared on his face, "Definitely, definitely."
