Maybe it was a suppressed outburst. For a while, these old leading guards were a little excited and seemed a little noisy.
There was quite a stir, and the commander of the royal forest army walked out of the palace door and yelled: "Who is making a noise here?"
In such a serious place, making even the slightest noise that shouldn't be done may lead to sin.
Feeling a little embarrassed again, everyone looked at each other.
Whether this crime is big or small, if someone pursues you and refuses to let go, at least someone will have to take the blame, and you will inevitably receive dozens of blows.
There is no rule without rules. The more serious the place, it is not right to make a wrong step when doing something, let alone making a noise. There are clearly stated punishments.
Therefore, at this time, whoever has the upper hand has something to say, and the person with a big face will just let it go.
Zhou Xiaozhou couldn't implicate others because of himself, so he smiled and handed over his hands: "Master Long, long time no see, how are you?"
This dragon giant also went on an expedition to Qianhu County. They were both at the leader level and had some friendship. He nodded slightly to give him face and said: "Master Zhou came just in time. There is a dispute in the court about the leader of the dragon head guard. Zhou As the leader of the Dragon Head Guards, your Excellency has the most say, so please speak carefully."
As he spoke, he kept winking at him.
Zhou Xiaozhou's face was full of confusion and he didn't understand what he meant at all: "What's going on?"
The specific name of the leader of the Dragon Head Guard has not yet been determined. Considering the authority of the Thunder Guard, it is an organization with overwhelming power. Whether it can occupy this position is very important.
Well, the Imperial Guard and the Royal Guards each recommended a candidate. Originally it was just a choice between two, but when it came to the court, the left minister recommended one, the right minister recommended one, the military marshal recommended one, and the Ministry of War also recommended One, and the officials also recommended one...
Now it has become a situation where the heroes are vying for the throne.
Although Long Yi wiped out the Yamai Kingdom in one fell swoop, in the royal court, because they did not immediately touch the big shots in the court, they took advantage of this period to relax and even reached some tacit understanding. , reached an unprecedented unity, and silently joined forces to evade the new king.
If you don't keep him in the air, everyone may be doomed, at least the official position will be lost.
If you have to give a reason, whoever hangs around in the court is not an eloquent person. He can find many reasons for you to openly change this position from internal selection to open selection. The more people who participate, the better. Seems fair. The less the person who wins the lottery can say that Long Yi's heart is what he wants, the better. At least he can destroy this organization and eliminate a huge threat.
The Thunder Guard originally kept an eye on the officials. Such an organization made the officials most unhappy, so it was rare for them to unite.
This can be regarded as the first round of confrontation between the court and the new king.
How to deal with it has become a more difficult matter.
The entire court officials cannot be killed at once. It is better to win over a group of people, suppress them, and kill a group of them. But now these people are acting like a team, making Long Yi Somewhat difficult to start with.
As a member of the royal family, he naturally could not let important departments lose their power. Long Ju was anxious, but he was not good at eloquence and could not defeat these civil servants. When he saw Zhou Xiaozhou's appearance, he thought it would be a change and signaled him to hurry in.
After all, he is the real second son of the leading guard. Now the nominal leader of the leading guard has the right to speak.
The wink she gave him was to ask him to choose the candidates recommended by the Royal Guards or the Royal Guards, who were all members of the royal family anyway.
Long Ju didn't have time to say anything more to him and hurriedly urged him to go to the palace.
Zhou Xiaozhou had no choice but to follow him and go up to pay homage, which was regarded as officially canceling the holiday.
Worshiping is just a matter of bowing and lowering your head, not a prostrating ceremony.
Long Yi originally didn't want him to participate in the court disputes. What he lacked most was a skilled weapon refiner. Since Zhou Xiaozhou had the potential in this area, he should be trained in this area. In time, he would become an important force in stabilizing the court situation. If a large number of powerful magic weapons are produced, it will be enough to expand territory and conquer the continent.
If he gets involved in court disputes, he may be killed if he is distracted. This is a kind of protection for Zhou Xiaozhou.
Now in this situation, he needs someone to break the situation even more. After all, Zhou Xiaozhou is the current top leader of the Dragon Head Guard and has become a key figure.
Even if someone else becomes the boss, Zhou Xiaozhou, the second oldest, can take over the role of the boss.
"It's great to be back from vacation."
It was also an attitude to formally confirm Zhou Xiaozhou's identity in front of all the officials in the court.
Aren't we all without a leader? We have one now. I'm not in a hurry.
The ministers originally sang and I came on stage, talking endlessly, gaining the upper hand in terms of righteousness, forcing the selection to be open, fair and just, with the virtuous and capable taking the place, and not setting a precedent for nepotism in the new dynasty. It will only cause the new dynasty to follow in the footsteps of the old dynasty...
It's all about righteousness, and it does make sense.
There were no civil servants on Long Yi's side to argue with him, so he seemed to be at a disadvantage. A private organization like the Dragon Head Guard became public, and was compared to the Thunder Guard, and was criticized by many.
The Thunder Guard had done everything. When they emerged, the curtain call had already been taken and they passed by.
The leading guard hasn't done anything yet, and he's already being criticized by thousands of people.
Countless eyes fell on Zhou Xiaozhou, and many courtiers wondered why such a little person was ignored.
With such big variables appearing, these looks are quite complicated.
Zhou Xiaozhou actually had no place for him among the civil and military officials. There was already a eunuch in the place where he used to stand. He definitely couldn't take the eunuch's place. He was a little embarrassed. He immediately said: "Wei Chen brought me from his hometown." The family members came here, and it took them half a month to reach the royal city. They were very tired from traveling and traveling. They are here just to take off their vacation and not to disturb your lords’ discussion of state affairs, so I will leave here.”
If he wants to leave, others won't let him go.
An insignificant person can just leave. Now that he has become a key figure, he has no choice but to leave.
"Wait a minute."
A civil servant walked out of the queue and said, "I heard that Mr. Zhou was promoted through nepotism without merit and merit. This is never allowed in this dynasty. He should be dismissed and investigated."
Zhou Xiaozhou was indeed pulled over by Long Wei to be the second in command of the guard. At that time, Long Yi's men were still considered rebels, so how could there be so many rules?
The position was indeed promoted through nepotism, but Zhou Xiaozhou also made considerable contributions later on, making him worthy of the position and recognized by his subordinates.
If I have to be serious, if the program is wrong, I will have to start over and start again, and I will knock you down. If you have the ability, you can climb up again.
Climbing up from the bottom is definitely different from standing at a high place and trying to gain a position through meritorious deeds.
It is definitely easier to fill a position first and then fill it. This is how bureaucrats promote their own people and use this to keep others out.
He was about to be dismissed from his post. Zhou Xiaozhou was immediately furious. He turned around and saw that this guy was a civil servant in his thirties, who looked like a public official in the Yushitai.
"What rank is this sir?"
"Sun Qin, the fifth-rank governor of Yushitai."
"I also suspect that your official position is the result of flattery or even trading. It will be no problem for you to be dismissed and investigated..."
"Accurate."
Long Yi immediately seized the opportunity. With a wave of his hand, the powerful men in front of the palace stepped forward to grab the governor of Yushitai and dragged him out by force.
