The feeling of thorns on the back gave everyone in the palace a chill.
Even Ji Zhengshuo, the king of a country, is no exception
Although there were many people behind them to protect them, the sword light seemed to be in an uninhabited land, penetrating all over the place.
Looking at Mu Chengyun's appearance, Ji Zhengshuo's face turned as dark as ink.
The king of a country was so humiliated that Ji Zhengshuo could hardly contain his murderous intention.
But he still has to endure it, because the grand formation he had high hopes for didn’t work.
Even the Heavenly Demon Emperor was able to stop Jian Tiansi's formation that could exorcise evil spirits and slay demons.
But the old man in front of him ignored it
There is no fault in the formation, but it is ineffective against this person
Under the crisis, Ji Zhengshuo did not remain silent.
"Your Majesty, may I?"
The words fell
The whole city is filled with sword energy, pressing down three feet
The atmosphere at the scene became more solemn
Ji Zhengshuo looked at a strand of hair falling in front of him
Gritting his teeth
"Can!"
"I will stop immediately, Sword Master Mu, are you satisfied?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for clarifying right and wrong." Mu Chengyun said calmly, "You have no words to say, please give the order, Your Majesty."
"I'm watching"
Ji Zhengshuo trembled with anger, and after a moment, he said in a cold voice
"good!"
boom
The seal symbolizing the national destiny was rubbed on the silk cloth. Mu Chengyun nodded, raised his hand, and held the imperial edict in his hand.
"Now that this matter is over, I won't stay any longer. Your Majesty, your Majesty will decide on the next director of the Department of Suppression of Evil."
As soon as the words fell, the sword energy in the city disappeared instantly, as if it had never happened before.
Also disappearing with it was the figure of Mu Chengyun
...
Department of Evil Suppression
Ye Xueyan and Ye Zhuliu were speechless, surrounded by a group of officials who were lamenting.
"What...what should I do?" Ye Xueyan said in a harsh voice, "Director, he..."
"I probably won't come back," Ye Zhuliu sighed.
"By doing this, the director has broken with Zhou Dynasty. There is no room for him in the entire court."
"But why?" Wang Yang asked in confusion, "Why would the director do this?"
As Mu Chengyun's disciples, Wang Yang and others never understood what Mu Chengyun was for.
At this time, Ji Zhengshuo's vicious attack on Ye Wuyou has not yet reached Luo Jing.
The news that Ye Wuyou was granted the title of Marquis was tacitly understood and did not spread.
In addition, Mu Chengyun was also tight-lipped, so no one knew about this matter.
Liu Chuan said melancholy, "Our Evil Suppression Department is going to be gone now."
"The Secretary-General threatens the emperor like this and insults hundreds of officials. If there is no place for him in the court, how can there be room for us?"
The horse soldier sneered and said, "Don't you know what our evil department looks like to the officials?"
Ye Zhuliu shook his head, "Don't worry, everyone, life may be easier for everyone in the future, but after this period of time, we may be banned..."
"How long is this period of time?" Ye Xueyan asked sadly.
Ye Zhuliu sighed, "When? When will Luo Jing and even Jiuzhou forget about this? When will it be the day when all the officials of the Suppression and Evil Department will retire?"
"Don't worry, His Majesty still needs someone to maintain stability in Luojing, and for a while, he won't be able to find anyone to fully take over Luojing."
"And as soon as this happened, he vigorously targeted the Evil Suppression Department, which was a big loss to his reputation."
"So during this period, not only will we not target the Evil Suppression Division, but we will give out generous rewards in order to please everyone. By the way, we will show Luo Jing how wise and generous he is as an emperor."
"Everyone can rest assured for now"
Those present here are considered the core of the Evil Suppression Department. They are all the backbone left by Mu Chengyun.
He can be regarded as the successor that Mu Chengyun carefully cultivated. I originally thought that with Ye Wuyou gone, a few people could still compete for that position. But now it seems that, let alone fighting, maybe even surviving is a problem.
Everyone had no way out for a while, and they didn't care about the arrogance in Ye Zhuliu's words.
When the people dispersed, Ye Zhuliu suddenly sighed.
"It's hard, it's hard," Ye Zhuliu said with a grimace, "Something must have happened to make the director so desperate, but what exactly is it?"
Ye Xueyan was a little uneasy, "Could it be something related to my brother..."
Suddenly, Ye Xueyan thought of something and hurriedly walked outside.
"Where are you going?!" Ye Zhuliu asked quickly
"Find someone who knows the truth!" Ye Xueyan said with a stern face.
After saying that, he disappeared from Ye Zhuliu's sight.
"Who knows the truth?" Ye Zhuliu wondered, "Who is it?"
"Tianji Tower?!"
Ye Zhuliu's expression changed and he quickly ran out following Ye Xueyan.
Not long after
The two of them returned to the Evil Suppression Department again in despair.
Ye Zhuliu's face was solemn and thoughtful.
Ye Xueyan had a determined look on her face, obviously she had already made a decision.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, a supervisor from the Department of Evil Suppression walked in with a lot of new clothes and weapons, smiling.
"Everyone, although the former director acted recklessly, for the sake of the stability of the great Zhou Dynasty, His Majesty sent slaves here to comfort you all."
"Your Majesty has an order. Mu Chengfeng, the former director of the Suppression of Evil Department, has acted recklessly and deprived him of his position as director of the Suppression of Evil Department. He will never be hired again. Until this matter comes to an end, the people of the Suppression of Evil Department have nothing to do with this matter."
"From now on, you will still need to serve the country, and the Great Zhou Dynasty will not treat you badly."
With the release of new weapons and equipment
Everyone in the Suppression Department couldn't help but feel the atmosphere relaxing, and the uneasiness in their hearts slowly receded.
Ye Zhuliu looked at the thoughtful eunuch in front of him and sighed softly.
The Evil Suppression Department... I'm afraid it's going to be gone...
It’s just a pity that Ye Wuyou’s hard work was lost.
Without the Evil Suppression Department...Zhou Lu will be a young lady in other people's arms who can be dressed up by others from now on.
The officials in front were happily distributing new equipment.
Suddenly, a slender figure emerged from the back hall, holding a big gun and dressed in plain clothes, and hurriedly walked outside the Evil Suppression Department.
When Ye Zhuliu saw this, his eyes suddenly changed.
"What is this little girl so crazy about!?"
Hurry up and stop him
He grabbed her wrist and pulled her back while no one was paying attention.
"Are you crazy? What do you want to go out for?" Ye Zhuliu asked with a straight face.
"Out of town"
"You're out of town!" Ye Zhuliu said angrily, "You want to find Ye Wuyou!"
"So what!" Ye Xueyan shouted angrily, "This Evil Suppressor will not stay still!"
"You will die if you go out," Ye Zhuliu sighed. "You are in the eyes of everyone, but you are Ye Wuyou's adopted sister, which can be regarded as one of his weaknesses."
"If you go out, the emperor will not take action, but others will have to show their loyalty, and you are the loyalty they show."
"I know you want to report to Ye Wuyou, but it's not necessary. We all know these things from the Tianji Tower. Can Ye Wuyou know?"
"Don't worry, he must have his own plans."
"As long as we stay in the Evil Suppression Department honestly, we will give him the greatest support. Moreover, this is the only place where we can safely protect you and me."
"We have to live well even for our own face."
Ye Xueyan was silent. He slowly put down the big gun in his hand and returned to his room in despair.
