Time passed by, and on the street outside the conference room, the commoners and nobles of the Luoshen Kingdom were happily shopping, relaxing or having fun on the street.
Under the building, Mei Lin worriedly said: "Your Majesty the Throne, it's been twenty minutes since the meeting started. Should we go up?"
Tianjie didn't say anything. Hallet behind him said: "Meilin, what are you in a hurry? Our people are making trouble up there, so this meeting can't be held. If you want to keep your position, just stay here."
Wait. If you don't calm her down on this matter and let her retreat, she will really instigate others to challenge your position."
Mei Lin said: "I understand."
On the corridor outside the conference room on the thirteenth floor of the building, an adult female figure stood in front of the window, with a pair of bright black eyes looking at Tianjie and the others downstairs, despite the distance of the thirteenth floor.
At night, she could clearly see the person below. This woman was the King of the Underworld, Moradis Korra.
There is a woman standing behind Cora, who is her deputy. The deputy said: "Sir, how long do we have to wait before we go in? There is already a lot of noise in the conference room."
Cora listened to the noise in the conference room, but ignored it. She just said: "Whenever Tianjie comes in, we will go in."
The deputy said: "What if the heavenly realm does not enter?"
Cora closed her eyes: "Then we won't go in either."
In the conference room, there was almost noisy, and everyone was arguing about whether this meeting should continue. Those people under the influence of the King of Heaven were provoking Shantora's power in every possible way.
Airspace King Otis still seemed to have nothing to do with him. He had never opened his closed eyes until now, as if he didn't care whether he could open it or not. But Little Red Riding Hood on the side wanted to help Shantora control it.
He wanted to live up to the occasion, but when he saw that the people making trouble were all subordinates of Heaven and Realm, he had no choice but to endure it and ignore it.
Faced with such a situation, Shantora wanted to control it, but she knew very well that even if she spoke, these people would not listen to her unless she really took action against them, but she really wanted to
Doing so would only put herself in an even more unfavorable situation. She knew that only the Lord God of Thrones could arrive at this time to calm them down.
Outside the conference room, Cora suddenly opened her eyes. When she looked downstairs again, they had disappeared from the world downstairs. She turned around and said: "They are here, we should go in."
Just as he was talking, footsteps came from the direction of the stairs, as well as the sounds of Merlin and Hallett chatting.
Cora stretched out her hand, let the deputy support her, and walked slowly towards the conference room. After a while, Tianjie and the others walked behind her.
"Isn't this Lord Korra, the King of the Underworld?" Tianjie shouted from behind.
Cora coughed twice, turned around, and said in a weak voice: "It turns out to be Master Tianjie. I thought you were inside."
"Lord Cora." Hallet and Merlin both bowed as subordinates. Cora's deputy also returned the salute.
Tianjie smiled and said: "I encountered some things on the way, so I came late. Is your illness better?"
"...cough...cough..." Korra said: "It has been like this since I gave birth to the child. I originally wanted to take leave this time but I heard that this is the first organizational meeting held by Shantora. Why?
We have to do it once, we can’t embarrass her too much.”
Tian Jie said: "Lord Kola is still so kind. Let's go in quickly, please."
Instead, Cora made way for a way and said: "I am weak and walk slowly, so Master Tianjie should walk in front...cough...cough..."
"Okay then." Tianjie bowed to Cora like a gentleman, and then walked past with his subordinates. Cora was still supported by the deputy seat and followed Tianjie slowly.
Walking behind.
At 8:52 in the evening, Tianjie stood in front of the conference room door. All the noisy people in the conference room suddenly fell silent, and Otis's closed eyes finally opened.
Little Red Riding Hood stood up from her seat and said: "Throne of Heaven and Realm, you are finally here. If you don't come, we won't dare to start this meeting."
Tianjie smiled and said: "Little Red Riding Hood, you are joking. If you say that, I will be the sinner of the organization."
Hearing him calling her nickname, Little Red Riding Hood frowned, but then she immediately smiled again.
Tianjie was very tall and tall. He was standing in front of the door of the conference room. No one could pass on either side. When he heard a cough behind him, he quickly stepped aside to open the door and let Korra go first.
Cora smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Thank you, Lord Tianjie."
"Hey, the King of the Underworld is here too." Little Red Riding Hood jumped out from her seat, walked forward and said, "Let me help you over."
"Thank you." Cora still smiled, pushed her passenger seat away, stretched out her hand to be supported by Little Red Riding Hood, and walked to her throne.
Since Korra arrived, almost all eyes have been fixed on her. Her black and white hair, gray-white skin, black eyes, and two small vampire-like fangs in her mouth when she smiles all make her beautiful.
It was a perfect foil. Even though she was pregnant, it not only did not diminish her beauty, but actually added to the flavor of a mature woman.
Leona, who was sitting on her right, asked with concern: "Sir, are you feeling better?"
"Thank you for your concern. It's okay." It seems that no matter who she is, Cora is always so polite.
Throne Shantara said: "King Poseidon has not come to the meeting for many years because of his mission. Now, three of the Four Thrones are here. The meeting has been delayed for an hour, and it is time to start. Humph, the King of Heaven's
Throne of the Heavenly Realm, it’s a good time for you to come.”
"Hahaha." Tianjie said with a smile: "Something happened to me on the way. GITW's criminal guard, Steel Needle Aile, suddenly appeared nearby. It's impossible not to deal with this matter."
"Really?" Shantora said: "What about you, Ms. Mei Lin from Pisces Palace?"
"I..." Mei Lin glanced at Tianjie and said, "I heard about the Steel Needle Elle, and I followed Lord Throne to help."
Shantara said: "That means you have arrived at the Imperial Capital long ago and didn't come here, right?"
Mei Lin's face changed with fright: "This...I, I also want to do more things and contribute more to the organization."
Shantara slapped the table and scolded: "How presumptuous! You came to the capital of God, firstly you didn't attend the meeting on time, and secondly you didn't come to report to me. Do you take me seriously?"
Mei Lin hurriedly knelt on the ground: "I don't dare. I just want to do more for the organization and make more contributions, so as to reduce my own guilt."
"Your Majesty!" Tian Jie said unhurriedly: "Hunting Celeste Bingzhixie was a temporary mission assigned by Lord Throne. Now that her husband Cullenstone is dead, she is very sad.
And the foundation we worked so hard for so many years in Danluer is gone. Such a big thing happened. Mei Lin can't bear such a big crime alone. I think she just wants to stand up for the organization as soon as possible.
Credit.”
As soon as Tian·Jie said the words, the people in several palaces under his influence immediately said good things for Mei Lin. Not only the people in the Twelve Palaces, but also the patriarchs outside the Twelve Palaces spoke for Mei Lin.
Quite a few.
Shantara looked at these people. Those who came to the meeting were all figures in the core circle of the organization. Now almost more than half of them were on the Tianjie side to help Meilin speak, which meant that Tianjie alone
People control half of the forces in the organization! Shantara is also a smart person. Without Heaven and Realm, she can’t even hold the organization’s triennial meeting. After these two things, she knows that the people in Heaven and Realm are now going to be moved.
It's not time yet.
Little Red Riding Hood, who was sitting next to Shantora, saw that she had been hesitating not to speak, and already understood what she was thinking. She stood up and said: "Such a big thing happened in Danluer, which cost us an income that we have worked so hard to manage."
No, Pisces, as the supervisor there, has an unshirkable responsibility. But Cronston and Mei Lin of Pisces have worked for the organization for so many years and made countless contributions. Our organization cannot be blamed for
This mistake wiped out all their achievements. Now that Cullenstone is dead, the one who is most saddened is his wife, Mrs. Merlin. I think Mrs. Merlin is already in pain, and she has made up for her past mistakes.
I mean, don’t punish her anymore.”
Shantora knew that this was Little Red Riding Hood trying to find a way out of herself. A month or two ago, she had already made a big noise about getting rid of Mei Lin, and almost everyone in the organization knew about it. But now
As soon as this incident came out, she knew that it was not the time to touch Mei Lin, but she let the matter go unnoticed. She was the one who was embarrassed, but if there were high-level figures from organizations outside the world interceding for Mei Lin, she would not be able to do anything.
It was so embarrassing. So she immediately asked: "King of the Underworld, King of the Sky, what do you think?"
Airspace King Otis said: "I have only been in the organization for a few years, and I am still a newcomer. I don't know many things clearly. And there are so many seniors here, and what they mean is what I mean."
Shantara thought to herself: "Well, what they mean is what you mean. You see that you have no power in the organization, and you don't want to offend anyone." She looked at Korra and asked, "King of the Underworld, what do you think?
?”
Cora coughed lightly. She glanced at the opposite world, then at Little Red Riding Hood, thought for a while, and said: "I think Fred is right. The two Pisces people have already joined the organization a lot.
Years have passed, and Ms. Merlin may have joined later, but Cullenstone had been working for the organization for many years before I even joined the organization. This incident caused Cullenstone's death. Could it be that he was so
Can't years of service make up for this mistake?"
Shantara looked at the deputy seat of King Poseidon again.
King Poseidon's deputy said: "I have no special opinion."
Shantara asked the people in the twelfth house again: "What do you mean?"
People in the twelfth house are all controlled by the four kings. If the four kings have already expressed their opinions, what else can they mean?
Shantara nodded lightly: "Well, since the four thrones and the twelve palaces are all trying to protect Mei Lin from the Pisces palace, I will not pursue it any further. However, if you have merit, you must reward it.
Mistakes must also be punished. Pisces must have made such a big mistake. It is impossible not to punish him. I think he will be fined five million coins and demoted one level, but he will still temporarily take over the position of head of Pisces."
After hearing this punishment, everyone understood that Shantora must have taken a step back to the heaven. The fine was five million coins. Although this punishment seemed like a lot, there was no such thing in the private collection of the leader of the organization.
This little money. As for being demoted by one level, although it seems a bit like punishing her, according to common sense, if a person in the Twelve Palace is demoted by one level, he should retreat to the patriarchal level outside the Twelve Palace, or be a deputy seat.
But Shantara still asked her to temporarily take the position of the twelve palaces, which is still the same as not being demoted. As long as she makes new achievements, the word "temporary" can be removed, and the original positions of two people in the Pisces palace will be replaced in the future.
Mei Lin was left in charge alone. Not only did this not reduce the situation, it actually increased Mei Lin's power.
Tian Jie looked at Mei Lin who was kneeling on the ground and said: "Your Excellency, you are looking at Cullenstone who has made great contributions to the organization for so many years, so you are treated leniently. Why don't you thank her quickly?"
Mei Lin thanked her profusely.
Shantara said: "Sit down quickly, we still have a meeting." She looked at Mei Lin who happily sat back down, and she was almost furious. But on the surface, she was still the same as usual, because
She knew that if she didn't do this, people in Tian·jie would not know how to make trouble again, and then the whole organization would be in chaos.
