The deathly silence in the Purple Wall Hall......
In an instant.
It was as if everyone had disappeared, and not even the faintest breathing or heartbeat could be heard. The huge palace where dozens or hundreds of officials stood was like a netherworld, completely silent.
This weird atmosphere infected everyone in the hall.
Tie Tang saw some officials at the back of the two queues whose legs and feet had begun to tremble, but they were still trying their best to restrain themselves and did not dare to make a sound.
"The Grand Master wants me to meet the Human Emperor?"
This decision is so profound.
From the performance of the officials present, Tie Tang had already guessed one thing.
No one knows exactly where the Human Emperor is!
The Emperor had not been in court for a hundred years, and many people suspected that something had happened.
But doubts are just doubts after all, and the possibility of the Human Emperor practicing in seclusion is not impossible.
No one can be sure about the Yin Shang Palace suspended in the sky...
Is there anyone inside?
There is no doubt that the Yin Shang Palace, as the living and training place of the Human Emperor, is an absolutely taboo place and a restricted area for immortals and gods.
Without being summoned, no one would dare to enter without being summoned.
"Then the Grand Master asked me to meet the Human Emperor... doesn't that mean he asked me to die? I really... bless the Grand Master's family!" Tie Tang's forehead was dripping with cold sweat and his scalp was numb.
If he breaks into the Yin Shang Palace and is beaten to death by the Human Emperor, his death will really be in vain.
There will be no one in the world who can save yourself.
"It seems...Wu Mu prevented me from becoming the county guard before, but he actually saved my life, which is beneficial to me but not harmful.
If I cannot become a county governor, I am not qualified to meet the Emperor just because I am an inspector.
Things will be different after becoming a county governor...
If you think this way, the palace master, left prime minister and others who recommended me...
Not right either.
What kind of fresh carrot skin am I that it’s their turn to plot against me? "
Tie Tang's thoughts were messy, and he wanted to find the key to solving the problem among the countless clues, but he always felt that there was endless fog covering him.
During the previous discussion in the palace, he was not in the palace and did not know what happened. He could not speculate on everyone's motives at all.
Moreover, these court bosses have deep calculations. Even if they make a bad move, they may be able to use their strength to survive in another desperate situation.
As a flag bearer, he might be a confidant one moment, but become an outcast the next moment, and he is completely unable to figure out the true intentions of these immortal overlords.
Just when the civil and military forces of the entire dynasty were silent...
Taibao stood up.
"Que Huaqing, you have overstepped your bounds."
He called the Grand Master by his full name and expressed his anger.
However, the Taishi asked Tie Tang to meet the Emperor, which was in compliance with the law and etiquette. On the surface, there was no problem and no fault could be found. Even the Taibao could not criticize the other party from this point.
Therefore, the Taibao could only state clearly that the Taishi had crossed the line, but he did not point out where exactly.
The governor of a county has great power and is responsible for the livelihood of hundreds of millions of people in that county. There are only seventy-two of them in the entire world.
Historically, promoted county governors were met by the Emperor of China and canonized in person.
However, in the past hundred years, the Human Emperor has not been in court for a long time, and the newly promoted county governor has been promoted by the Third Duke on behalf of the Human Emperor. ....For example, Li Qingwan, the governor of Qingshui County thirty years ago, had never met the Human Emperor, but was drafted by the Taibao.
If Tie Tang really wants to serve as the county governor, he can actually do what he has done for a hundred years, and let the three princes draft the announcement, which can avoid the step of meeting the emperor.
But... Tie Tang also has an extremely ambiguous identity.
Inspector!
The Supervisory Hall is an absolutely independent system, and even the Left Prime Minister, the Right Prime Minister, and Wu Mu have no right to interfere in the affairs of the Supervisory Hall.
As a law enforcement agency that is independent of the court and directly under the orders of the Emperor, every inspector in the Supervisory Hall can be said to be a close associate of the Emperor.
Because the requirements for becoming an inspector are stringent, the strength gap between the inspectors is huge. Immortal overlords can serve as inspectors, and sorcerers and wizards can also serve as inspectors.
In addition, the number of supervisors is not large, and those who can perform well in their own county competitions at the right age and establish enough supervisors to serve as county guards... are very rare.
In the past hundred years, especially in recent decades, during this sensitive period, there have been candidates who can serve as supervisors and county governors at the same time.
There is only Tie Tang!
So as soon as he appeared, he was immediately targeted by many officials in the court, who wanted to borrow Tie Tang's help... to visit the Yin Shang Palace.
Look at that one -
Is it still there or not?
The Taibao understood this deeply, and he was also very confused. He also wanted to know what happened to his former friend, the invincible emperor who is now the overlord of the world?
But from the perspective of stabilizing the world structure, CPIC cannot let this answer be completely revealed.
Especially when it was revealed under the suggestion of some people with evil intentions.
And Que Huaqing.
The leader of the three princes, the current Grand Master, was the one in the Taibao's heart who had evil intentions.
Because Taishi, like Wu Mu and King Jiang, were important ministers of the ancient Xia Dynasty, they would always have the mark of the ancient Xia Dynasty on their bodies.
Upon hearing the Taibao's scolding, Grand Master Que was neither sad nor happy. He didn't even twitch his brows and just looked at the other important officials in the court.
There are many old monsters in the court, many of them, and if you pick any one, they will be overlords who started out with thousands of years of life.
There were only a handful of geniuses who truly rose to prominence a thousand years ago and belonged to that era...
The Human Emperor and the Taibao were the extremely dazzling twin stars of that era.
With terrifying talents, tremendous luck, and rare encounters throughout the ages, the emperor and the Taibao have traveled the same path that others have gone through for thousands of generations in just one or two hundred years.
Especially the Human Emperor, the invincible emperor who shocked the past and the present. With his peerless talents that overwhelmed the past and present, he reached the pinnacle that countless people looked up to.
Now that the Human Emperor has disappeared, only the Taibao is left in the Twin Stars.
In the eyes of Taishi Que, and in the eyes of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, Taibao was lonely.
Because the Taibao were not from the same era as them.
The one who can fight side by side with the Taibao and drink from the cup is now high in the palace of Yin and Shang, while the genius born after a thousand years will be too far away from them even if they reach the realm of immortals.
Only one Taibao——
Nothing to worry about!
Wherever Grand Master Que looked, people kept responding, but no one dared to directly agree with Grand Master Que's proposal.
The Taibao may be able to compete with one or two...but the name of the emperor is so powerful that he dominates the world!
Unless the news of the Emperor's death really comes out and is put on the table, which official would dare to openly take sides?
"There is no need to alarm the emperor when conferring a county governor. The grand master is too worried." An official wearing armor and a sword hanging from his waist stood up.
He is only a sixth-grade official, but he wears armor and carries a sword into the court.
Grand Master Que glanced sideways, but he was not surprised.
Officials who can join the court must be at least fourth-rank officials with real power, but there are some exceptions in the court.
For example, the human emperor's close minister in front of him was the Wu Yushi who was in charge of the three soldiers of Zi Yuan.
Grand Master Que did not open his mouth to argue, but winked at the other person. The Taoist priest with his hair tied in a Yin-Yang bun stood up with a whisk in his hand.
"Wizard's affairs, the fortune of the Holy City has changed, and a catastrophe may be imminent."
"Daomen dare to interfere in the affairs of the court?" Someone in the right column said sarcastically.
When Tie Tang heard this voice, he felt a little familiar. It was the last person who reminded him to thank him earlier.
He looked up and saw that the man was standing behind Marquis Zhongyong, his features were somewhat similar to Su Zian's.
Tie Tang immediately guessed who this person was.
Marquis Weiyuan!
Su Zian's brother.
Before coming to the Holy Capital, Su Zian once said that he would write a letter to his brother so that if he encounters any trouble, he can go find Marquis Weiyuan.
It seems that this Weiyuan Marquis knew about his existence and he only warned him before.
"Master Hou, I am too unconventional." Another Taoist stood up, but his attitude was completely opposite to the previous one.
The situation on the court is a little more subtle now.
Together with the two Taoists from Wei Taiyi, they all made completely different choices. This shows that other officials are even more worried, fearing that they will be in the wrong team.
"Although the county guard is important, the three princes can decide!" Those with strength and background began to take sides.
They are not afraid of making mistakes, have enough confidence, and even have the opportunity to make a new choice.
"The Supervisory Palace is directly under the jurisdiction of the Human Emperor. Once appointed as the governor of a county, the Human Emperor shall confer a title."
"When the great witch serves as the county governor, he is promoted beyond the level. The three ministers can decide, and the two ministers can decide."
"The governor is in charge of a county and has the power of life and death, which should not be underestimated. In addition, the supervisor patrols the heavens and supervises the heavens, so he should be given by the emperor himself."
.......
The anger between the major factions is getting louder and louder.
Tie Tang stood in front of the Ziyuan Palace, feeling that every word spoken by every official was like a mountain of heavenly mountains pressing heavily on his shoulders.
Keep it up like this...
Before the outcome of the discussion could be determined, he himself would be seriously injured by the words.
During this period.
Neither the Prime Minister on the Left nor the Prime Minister on the Right said a word, including the officials who were friendly with them.
The other officials were not surprised either. Regardless of whether they were left or right prime ministers, apart from the first hundred years of the Great Shang Dynasty, they rarely participated in the court for the next seven hundred years.
It is unprecedented for the two to come together today.
In the past morning gatherings, you would never have seen a single one of them.
"What you all said is reasonable, but the current situation is so serious that I'm afraid you still don't know it."
The Taifu, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke up.
As one of the Three Lords, his prestige and strength need not be mentioned. He silenced the shouts of the whole hall with just one word. ...."Dare you ask Taifu to speak clearly!"
The Taifu was in his forties or fifties. He wore a purple ribbon around his waist and a gold seal. However, he appeared to be relatively thin and out of place among the burly officials.
He explored his right palm, and it turned into a huge map of the human world.
"Three religions are causing chaos in the world, and the people's hearts are unstable. Yin soldiers are passing through from the north. Thousands of people have died before their yang lives have expired.
Recently, there are also rumors in the southeast that several evil immortals have come to the world, calling themselves the White Camel Old Immortal, and they want to teach all living beings the Dharma.
The glorious and great cause of our human race has entered a dire straits and must not be underestimated. "
"These young people can be wiped out by me with a backhand. Are you worrying too much?"
The Taifu put away his palms and didn't say much. He just said eight words softly.
"The turmoil has appeared, and people's hearts are unstable."
People's hearts, not the hearts of the people.
Which people?
All the officials present knew this clearly.
It's none other than themselves.
Once the imperial court begins to split, the Great Shang will collapse in an instant, and the unified posture of the human race will also fall apart.
Now.
It takes a being who can subdue all voices to stand up, bring the world to its center, and deter all rebellions.
And this person——
Only the Human Emperor!
The Taifu did not express his attitude in his words, but he chose to stand on the Taishi's side.
This caused Sangong's strength to begin to shift, and also allowed Wu Mu to make a choice.
Wu Mu, who had previously opposed Tie Tang becoming the county governor, was once again on the opposite side of the Taibao.
"Tie Tang is the pinnacle of the human race and a generational genius, so he deserves to be mentored by the Human Emperor."
Duke Wu and Mu all made decisions, which forced some princes to express their attitudes.
The balance of this dispute... gradually began to tilt towards Master Que.
finally.
Most of the officials in the court expressed their meager suggestions either explicitly or implicitly, and Grand Master Que obviously had a great advantage.
But he still didn't feel completely at ease. Today's court was different from the past.
Except for the three human kings and most of the princes who were not present, there are still forces in Ziyuan Palace that can influence the balance.
The left prime minister of the Great Shang Dynasty, Yin Zhi, was honored as A Heng.
The Right Prime Minister of the Great Shang Dynasty, Xue Laizhu, whose courtesy name was Zhonghui.
These two people definitely have the power, influence, and even... strength to overturn this debate!
Xue Laizhu, the right prime minister, also serves as the director of the Department of Clinics.
Yin Zhi, the left prime minister, also served as the great wizard of the dynasty.
Master Que took a deep breath, slowly stepped out of the queue, and bowed his hands towards the front of the two lines.
Although he didn't speak, a thousand words were left unsaid.
Right Prime Minister Zhong Hui stretched out his hand, yawned, and patted his mouth: "Xue is a little sleepy, please allow me to take a step first."
After saying that, he flashed and disappeared completely. Where is the figure of the Right Prime Minister in Ziyuan Palace?
If the right prime minister does not express his position, then only the left prime minister will be left.
Although the Taibao was slightly disappointed, he still chose to believe the Prime Minister.
This great shaman and left prime minister of Shang, who was appointed by the Emperor of China, could use Yi hexagram to understand the emotions of ghosts and gods; he could cultivate crops to avoid evil spirits; he could use medicine to treat diseases and save lives from childhood injuries.
As long as Zuo Xiang opens his mouth, it will still be difficult for Taishi Que's proposal to succeed.
Yin Zhi looked at Tie Tang, just like the spring breeze blowing on his face before, it was gentle and gentle, greatly reducing the pressure around Tie Tang.
"The transformation of yin and yang, the number of the four seasons, the changes in heaven and earth, the changes in people's hearts, from what I can see... this person is qualified to meet the Human Emperor!"
What?
The Taibao was shocked.
Including Weiyuan Hou, Zhongyong Hou, Wu Yushi and others who were on his side could not understand.
The left prime minister they knew never looked like someone who would make such a decision.
A smile appeared on the corner of Taishi Que's mouth, and with a slight wave of his hand, his own officials quickly stood up to finalize the decision.
"Prime Minister Zuo..." Even though Taibao was filled with confusion, he would not refute Prime Minister Zuo's words at this time, even if he had the strength.
After a while.
Master Que quickly drew up the corresponding edict, and the three princes stamped it together, indicating that everyone made the decision together.
"Tie Tang comes forward to accept the seal!"
Tie Tang, who had been standing at the door, was wearing a black official robe that was wet and dry, and wet again.
He didn't do anything. He just stood in the Purple Wall Palace and listened to half of the court meeting. It was as if he had fought fiercely with the supreme genius for three days and three nights. He was already sweating profusely and exhausted.
Hearing Master Que calling his name, Tie Tang already realized that something was wrong.
But what can he do?
Things that neither the Taibao nor the princes could object to, could not be decided by him as a seventh-grade supervisor.
"I'm here..."
The voice was dry, obscure, and hoarse, as if it had been exposed to the sun for seven days and nights in the desert. .
The setting sun illuminates the banner to remind you: remember to collect it after reading it

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim red rain of blood.
The city is in ruins and everything is withered. Collapsed houses can be seen everywhere, as well as blue-black corpses and pieces of meat, like broken autumn leaves, silently withering.
The streets that used to be bustling with people are now desolate.
The sandy dirt road that used to be bustling with people is no longer noisy now.
Only blood and mud mixed with minced meat, dust, and paper were left, indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was stuck deep in the mud, full of sadness. Only an abandoned rabbit doll hung on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff has long been soaked into wet red, full of eerieness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some residual resentment, looking lonely at the mottled rocks in front of them.
There, a figure was lying down.
This was a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, his clothes were torn and covered with dirt, and he had a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The young man squinted his eyes and remained motionless. The biting cold penetrated his worn coat from all directions and spread throughout his body, gradually taking away his body temperature.
