Li Benxin was also surprised. Luofan always made people's heads jump when he opened his mouth.
After thinking about it, Li Benxin frowned and replied: "Okay. You don't need to worry about these things. Dongjie County Magistrate Luofan, this time you have stolen the show. Remember in the future, don't cause more trouble. Don't do it again. Even if you have ten heads, you can’t kill this kind of chaos. Just go back and continue being your Yamen officer!”
Luofan cupped his hands and suddenly shouted loudly: "This is what the king taught me. I will redouble my efforts in the future to kill all the thugs and thieves on the streets of Longcheng. If I don't kill all the evil obstacles in Longcheng in one day, I, Luofan, will never do it." Take a step back!”
Everyone was stunned and fell down! He is so crazy that he has no bottom line! Li Benxin asked him to go back honestly, but he fought against him and continued to kill people. This kind of arrogance has never been seen since ancient times. Sima Yue and others were also stunned. This boy was openly making a challenge to them!
Li Jiudou came close to Wu Sanwen and muttered: "Xiang Wen, what's going on? Is this kid a gangster? How could such a thing be born in a mountain that is not afraid of death!"
Wu Sanwen was also shocked, unable to recover.
The scene was quiet for a moment, and Li Benxin also laughed angrily. Yesterday, Xie Xu and Zhao Xue kept saying that this Luofan was arrogant, smart, vicious and eccentric. I have never been able to figure out how such a person could exist in the world. Now that I look at it, the two of them described it really appropriately. This kid is too dangerous, let's just put him aside and let him fend for himself.
Li Benxin smiled and shook his head and said: "If it weren't for the fact that there is no such thing as punishing arrogance in the law. With your tone, I can at least give you a death sentence. You should go down quickly."
Luo Fan smiled brightly and resigned: "There is righteousness in the world, and we should strengthen ourselves. Luo Fan, the arresting officer of Dongjie County Government, resigns."
Luofan politely saluted in all directions, and then left gracefully.
Everyone turned around and shook their heads, their minds confused.
Li Daoyuan also knows that one case alone cannot move the four major families. If you pursue it too deeply, it will lead to chaos in the world. He also nodded and said: "Since the case has been closed, I am tired. King Tiandu, please excuse me and leave first."
Li Benxin immediately walked down the hall again and walked a few steps away in person.
After returning to his seat again, Li Benxin also breathed a sigh of relief. The incident on East Street was finally settled for the time being. But before he could catch his breath, Sima Yue suddenly stepped forward and started a new round of attacks.
Sima Yue took a step forward and said loudly: "King Tiandu, I still have something to say. Yesterday, Mr. Yin took his servants to quell the rebellion. Although there was some lack of consideration, he did it for the comfort of Longcheng after all. The city protector did not After analyzing the details, I mistakenly killed four of Master Yin's sons. Such a major mistake was all because the three armies of the City Guard Division had no commander. Therefore, I request to take charge of the position of Marshal of the City Guard Division!"
When Li Benxin heard this, he immediately frowned and his head got bigger. This Sima Yue is really a difficult leech. Once she bites you, she will never let go until you drink enough blood.
But this city guard is the key to maintaining the stability of Dragon City, and it is also one of the few confidants he has. It can be said that this position is much more important than the lives of a thousand or ten thousand Luofan and Xu Ran. How could he give it up.
And Yin Shaozheng and the others all echoed loudly. After what happened last night, Yin Shaozheng finally figured it out. Let Sima Yue handle this matter of fighting and killing, and just sit back and enjoy it. Immediately he started crying and shouting at the top of his lungs. If he has no other skills, he is a self-taught person.
Seeing that Sima Yue was about to reach into the inner palace, all the heavenly officials and divine arresters in the inner palace were also excited. Even if Xu Ran and Luo Fan were really killed, they wouldn't have much fluctuation. But if Sima Yue is really allowed to take away the city protection department, then they, Li Benxin's confidants, may not survive for long.
Tianqing Xunxijiang of Tianqing Mansion, Xiao Wang Liozhihua's confidant and adopted son, was also someone Li Benxin relied on. He is forty years old, strong and broad, with rough eyebrows. Upon hearing such rude request, he immediately waved his hand and shouted rudely: "Master Sima, don't talk nonsense! The City Protector manages the security of the capital and has the power to mobilize troops. Since the establishment of the Tiandu Dynasty, it has been the internal affairs department. How can I leave the government in charge to your foreign government? If King Tiandu cannot control his own city guards, wouldn’t it be a joke if word spreads!"
Beside Xun Xijiang, the God of Tianqing Mansion captured Yu Kaitian, the master of the Iron Spear Sect. He looked like a thin old man in his fifties, always squinting his eyes and looking sickly. But in fact, he is an extremely skilled insider. And Li Benxin is also his son-in-law. Now that his son-in-law is in trouble, of course he, the father-in-law, cannot just sit idly by.
Seeing him standing up, he said with a trembling voice: "Yes. Since the founding of the dynasty, the city defense department has been controlled by the Prime Minister Wu. And the Prime Minister Wu has always been the personal guard of the King of Tiandu. How can the personal guard of the King of Tiandu be handed over? Let the outer government take care of it. If you take away the city protection department, then our inner government should simply disband."
Others in the inner government were equally fiercely opposed.
Sima Yue ignored these people and laughed loudly: "Hahaha! If you don't give me the city protection department, then who will give it to me? Since ancient times, all high positions have been occupied by those who are capable. If I, Sima Yue, control the city protection department, I guarantee that the dragon will be given to me. The city will be more stable. If not, it’s hard to say what will happen to Dragon City tomorrow!”
Hearing the threat in Sima Yue's words, Xun Xijiang pointed and shouted: "How outrageous! Sima Yue, you are too arrogant. As a first-rank Tianqing of the Tiandu Dynasty, you don't want to repay the kindness of the King of Tiandu. , but you have repeatedly disobeyed and caused trouble. Now, you dare to directly threaten the King of Tiandu. I think you are looking for death!"
Sima Yue was not afraid and said arrogantly: "So what about the threat! Without the support of our four major families, the Tiandu Dynasty would have collapsed long ago. Our four major families control millions of elite soldiers, and all the kings in the world support them, both black and white. Obey! If we move, the world will move. If we remain silent, the world will remain silent. If you want to kill me, the tens of thousands of people your foster father has become are not enough to fill my teeth!"
Sima Yue directly showed his cards, Xun Xijiang was so angry that he gritted his teeth, immediately rolled up his sleeves and shouted: "Arrogant! Don't think that your four major families are powerful. I am not a vegetarian. If you have the ability, let's get off the field and practice now!"
Seeing that Xun Xijiang was about to rush over, Li Jiudou and others hurriedly stopped him.
Kou Ling, Qiao Bafang and others also stood next to Sima Yue, pointing and shouting: "Without our four major families, the Tiandu Dynasty would have been annexed by the kings long ago. I advise you to make a wise choice, otherwise the change of ownership will just be It’s a matter of day and night!”
Seeing that the other party was getting more and more arrogant, Yu Wenzhao stomped on the ground, opened his lion's mouth, and shouted angrily: "Arrogant! You dare to openly threaten King Tiandu, you don't want to leave alive."
Yu Wenzhao roared, causing everyone on the opposite side to retreat, covering their ears and feeling dizzy.
However, Sima Yue stepped on the ground, Leng Yi flicked his sleeves, and also blew out a strong wind, and said angrily: "Yu Wenzhao, don't be so arrogant. Outside the city, I have an army of 200,000, and King Cheng and King Feng have 120,000 elite troops. They are already ready. As long as there is any movement in the palace today, hundreds of thousands of troops will immediately rush into Dragon City and flatten the palace. When the time comes, I want to see how many people you can stop!"
For a moment, the two sides were at each other's throats, with no one giving in.
Seeing that the situation is difficult to reconcile. Li Benxin was also furious, but he knew that he could not start a head-on war with the four major families, otherwise he, Wang Zhen, would be doomed.
His face was calm as usual, and he said: "Everyone, please be quiet. The importance of the four major families to the Tiandu Dynasty needs no introduction. However, the position of the City Protector cannot be decided hastily. Dear members of the family, please allow me to think about it again."
Sima Yue dealt with Li Benxin's cowardly nature. As long as he kept pressing, he had no choice but to give in. However, she didn't wait until she continued to push forward. Wu Sanwen, the Minister of Civil Affairs, suddenly said: "Since the City Protection Department is leaderless because of the vacancy of the Prime Minister of Military Affairs, wouldn't it be more appropriate for us to discuss the candidate for the Prime Minister of Military Affairs first?"
Everyone reacted. Yes, what's the fuss about. Just re-elect the Prime Minister.
Seeing that her plan was interrupted by Wu Sanwen, Sima Yue's eyes were full of anger. This Wu Sanwen seems insignificant, but he always messes up his own affairs at critical moments. If it weren't for his daughter being Wu Jiuzhen, I would have killed him a hundred times. And the reason why she estimated Wu Jiuzhen was all because of the underworld supreme leader Mu Jiufeng.
A few years ago, Wu Jiuzhen, the civil servant of Longcheng, used some means to hook up with Mu Jiufeng of Yama Villa. Mu Jiufeng even publicly announced that Wu Jiuzhen was her friend. Anyone who dares to touch a hair of Wu Jiuzhen or her family will be killed by Mu Jiufeng himself! Everyone knows the reputation of Yama Villa. Even ten Sima Yues or a hundred Sima Yues are no match for Mu Jiufeng.
Seeing that Wu Sanwen proposed to choose the military prime minister, everyone in the inner palace nodded happily.
Li Benxin also escaped. Although he preferred Xue Yang to be the military prime minister, he couldn't say it directly. He then said: "What the Minister of Wen said makes sense. Then, your lords, can you discuss the candidate for the Minister of War?"
When they heard that the military prime minister was to be selected, the people in the inner palace looked at each other, and for a moment they were all speechless. Everyone knows that the civil and military ministers are Li Benxin's confidants. Especially the military minister is the most important. Not only must he be extremely capable, but he must also be able to handle major affairs in the DPRK for Li Benxin. He also needs to have a strong background and be able to worry about Li Benxin.
Zhang Ruoxu had helped Li Yilong put down the rebellion back then. In addition, he had a hundred thousand civilian troops in his hands, and he had a great reputation in Longcheng. Naturally, there was no objection to him becoming the military prime minister. But now, where can I find another person who can match Zhang Ruoxu?
