Below the stage, Ao Lie, Minister of War, sat under the stage, with his wife and eldest son on the left and right, and a group of wives and concubines behind him.
"Dad, left minister Dongfang Haiping was found to have problems and was replaced by Crown Prince Long Chen. Will he take action against us next?" Ao Yan, the eldest son beside Ao Lie, said worriedly.
Ao Lie said calmly: "Don't worry, during the current war, His Royal Highness is just supporting some party members and team members in advance. He can't touch us, and he doesn't dare to touch us."
"Military supplies, personnel scheduling, these things cannot be handled by him just by arranging for the newly appointed Zuo Shilang. Moreover, he replaced Dongfang Haiping, which invisibly offended the Dongfang family."
Ao Yan said: "Let's just say that His Highness the Crown Prince's actions were too fast and too hasty. He had just supervised the country, and he had destroyed and replaced so many people through the anti-corruption operation. He was not afraid of destroying all the people in the empire.
Is the situation destabilized?"
Ao Lie narrowed his eyes and shook his head slowly: "On the contrary, this is the best opportunity for him to support his party members. His Majesty the Dragon Lord is not here, and he comes to supervise the country. This kind of opportunity does not come often. And it seems that he has been replaced.
There are so many people, but the people he replaces are not the core of the department and cannot affect the normal operation of the department. When the time becomes more and more mature and the people he supports are capable enough, he will
It’s time to take the next step.”
"So, we must also be prepared for the day of retirement. For now, we should make as much as we can."
While the father and son were chatting, a man walked in quickly. He came to Ao Lie's side, leaned over and whispered.
After hearing this, Ao Lie's face suddenly changed, and he suddenly stood up: "What! How is this possible?"
Next to him, Ao Yan saw that his father was so rude. What big thing had happened?
After a while, the expression on Ao Lie's face calmed down, but his expression was also uncertain.
"Father, what's wrong?"
Ao Yan couldn't help but ask.
Ao Lie glanced at the people around him and said with a cold face: "Everyone, get out of here!"
His outburst immediately frightened the opera singers to the point where they all knelt down and slowly backed away. His wives and concubines did not dare to say anything and stepped back one after another.
After all the others left, Ao Lie said with a gloomy face: "Your Majesty, Dragon Lord, they have failed and are preparing to go back now."
"What!!" Ao Yan was stunned: "How could it be possible? How long has it been?"
At the same time, this news was quickly conveyed to the other departments of the Sixth Department of Shangshu, and it also caused a huge shock. It was like dropping a depth charge on a calm lake, causing the lake to suddenly become turbulent.
And Prince Long Chen also used this name to summon the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty in the Dongsu Empire to go to court.
Two days later, the Dragon Saint, Long Commander, and important ministers in the Dongsu Empire came to attend the court meeting one after another.
The ministers who came were also talking a lot. It was obvious that these ministers who could enter the palace were well-informed people, and they all knew the news of the defeat of the Dragon Lord and others.
"It's unbelievable. Are the weapons of the Ancient Alliance really so powerful?"
"It is said that tens of millions of troops were killed by snipers from the air before they even reached the Prehistoric Alliance. With such a terrifying weapon, who from all the forces can do anything to the Prehistoric Alliance in the future?"
"I wonder what the casualties are on the Kunlun side of Juntian? I hope there are only a lot more."
People were talking a lot. The Dragon Saint Pulao, the Dragon Saint Bifan, the Dragon Saint Chiki, and the Dragon Saint Negative were sitting on the four chairs on the right, without saying a word. In fact, their spiritual thoughts were already being communicated.
Among the nine dragon saints, Bixi, Dongfang Dragon Saint and Yaizhen Dragon Saint, both of them were imprisoned in the Heavenly Court of Creation.
Of the nine dragon saints, there are currently only seven dragon saints left. Three of them went on the expedition with the Dragon Lord, and four stayed behind to sit in the imperial capital.
These four dragon saints, except for Bi An, the other three are not very good at fighting, but compared to other dragon saints, it does not mean that they are inferior in strength. They are all strong men in the eternal realm of heaven and earth.
Pulao Dragon Saint has a chubby appearance, a somewhat ugly face, a fat head, big ears, and a big mouth. His father is the Dragon Ancestor, but his mother is a sky-swallowing toad. Bifan Dragon Saint is considered to be the most upright among the nine Dragon Saints.
His mother is a divine tiger, a cross between a dragon and a tiger. He seems to be a majestic and upright man. He is eager for justice and can distinguish right from wrong. Among the people of the Dongsu Empire,
The reputation is very high.
Most of the professions that the Bigan family engages in are solving crimes and arresting heads, similar to public security professions.
Fuqi Dragon Saint is a rare literary man among the Nine Dragon Saints. He loves poetry and articles and has a rather literary personality.
The Chi-kissed Dragon Saint, whose mother is a fish, is the master of formations among the nine Dragon Saints and is also proficient in architecture.
"This kid Long Kun's recent performance has been very disappointing." Bigan Dragon Saint said rather displeased.
Pulao Long Sheng said solemnly: "Long Kun has indeed made many wrong decisions in the new era, but the development of the Prehistoric Alliance has been too fast, and it has actually threatened this situation."
Negative Long Shengdao: "Their military technology is developing too fast. If we rely on our own exploration, it would be terrible to develop to the point of surpassing us in such a short period of time."
Chi Kiss Dragon Saint said: "I think Long Kun and the others were deceived by the Prehistoric Alliance this time."
When the four dragon saints were communicating, Prince Long Chen, who was wearing a four-clawed true dragon robe, also entered the dragon platform above the hall from the side door.
Next to the dragon chair, there is a side chair, which is where the prince of the prison country sits.
Even if the Dragon Lord of Dongsu is absent, Prince Long Chen cannot overstep his authority and sit directly on the Dragon Throne.
After sitting down in their own seats, except for the four dragon saints, everyone else bowed and saluted.
After Prince Long Chen said goodbye, he said: "Everyone, the reason why we have been summoned here in a hurry today is because of some important events. I think all of you who are well-informed probably know the situation. Our army has been defeated."
"What!"
"How can this be!"
Many veterans who obviously already know the situation still pretend to know nothing.
Someone asked about the specific situation again. Prince Long Chen briefly explained the situation and said with a serious face: "This matter must not be spread among the people, otherwise it will inevitably cause huge chaos, and both the military morale and the people's morale will be unstable."
"What we can do now is stabilize the domestic situation!"
boom!
Just after saying this, the door of the entire palace hall was suddenly closed.
At the same time, figures came out one after another from several side doors around them.
One of them smiled and said: "Stabilize the situation? I'm afraid you won't have this chance." The appearance of this group of people shocked everyone in the hall, because all of them were dressed as palace maids and guards.
