Chapter 67 Upper Rank
Seating order is assigned according to official position.
Needless to say, the top three chairs were not mentioned. A hundred years ago, the middle chair would have been empty. It represented the only first-class governor of the Wuping Governor's Mansion, Prince Pingtian Yuqi.
Now the chair is empty again.
On the seats in the first row were more than a dozen figures with terrifying auras, including General Tiance, the marshal of the ten legions, and the number one general among the ten generals, Lian Bongqi.
There are more people in the second row, and they are divided into two types. One type is still a demigod, or a strong person close to a demigod; the other type has no momentum at all and looks like an ordinary old man.
The sixth brother Yang Xiang that Qi Long met in the Hou Mansion, or He Tianguan, the chief of the ancient desert domain whom he had met before, had a very similar aura to these people.
The former is the top ten generals of Wuping Governor's Mansion, the real person of Shangzhu Kingdom, the General of Hussar, the general of Fuguo, and the general of Zhenjun. The latter is the top official of each department of Wuping Governor's Mansion, Doctor Tianlu, An An
The power of Yi Zhongcheng, Emperor Shuling, etc., is no less than that of the chief of Shanhai District.
There are more than thirty people in total, and they are all distinct.
Among them, there are several old people who are not wearing court clothes. These old people have wrinkled faces and dim eyes. Some of them are dozing off. These include the old man of the Hong family and Mrs. Ye of the Ye family.
He was once the mainstay of the Grand Governor's Palace.
Further down, those who are qualified to sit down are strong men like Qi Lung, who are at the master level, and at least five-level generals with real power. There are three to four hundred people in a densely packed area. They whisper to each other from time to time, and their eyes flicker. Some of them are
Several of them had unfathomable auras. They seemed to be demigods, but they seemed not to be.
These people include all the high-level generals of the Governor's Mansion, a mixture of dragons and snakes, and judging from the current situation, only more than half of them have come.
"Sorry, there's no one here."
The seat is definitely enough, but except for acquaintances, almost no one would choose to sit next to each other. However, before the short-haired young man in front of him finished speaking, he sat down next to Qi Long.
"Master Hou, my name is Ye Luoqiu. I am here this time to enter the first three rows."
"This is the third row."
"No, I am referring to the first three rows of power in the Wuping Governor's Mansion, for example, the positions of the top ten generals."
"Oh, then come on," Qi Lung said, looking straight ahead.
"Hey, Mr. Hou, let me tell you the truth. This time, there will definitely be many people eyeing those four positions, maybe more than four, so cooperation is inevitable; don't you know, your Hou family
, at least ten generals got together and wanted to push someone to the top, but they didn't notify you."
"Four?" Qi Long reacted for the first time, turning around and saying, "You mean four?"
"You'll find out later," Ye Luoqiu smiled mysteriously and said, "As long as you join us, we can provide you with at least three real dragon parts, or a great medicine that can promote the transformation of dragon veins."
Qi Long glanced at the other party and suddenly said: "You are not an outsider, right?"
"No, let me formally introduce you. Hongye Gong, the former leader of the Shanyang Road of the Earth Army, is now the chief staff officer of the Zetsu Corps."
The corners of Qi Long's eyes twitched, and the sharp light of the golden-winged roc suddenly flashed in his eyes. It was impossible to avoid Garuda's hunting instinct as the bloodline of the divine beast approached.
"Prince of the Earth Army? You don't have royal blood in you."
"Although the Earth Army claims to the outside world that all princes are descendants of the Twelve Royal Clan, in fact this is not the case. At least as far as I know, there are at least three Earth Army demigods who do not have royal blood in their bodies."
"Then how did you become the leader of Shanyang Dao, Hongye Gong?" Qi Long asked doubtfully.
"After the rebellion, the Demon King abandoned the Demon King and re-selected the six officials of heaven, earth, spring, summer, autumn and winter. My father was the last Qiu Guanzhong Chief. Later, the ancient country fell, and this priesthood fell into my hands.
Yes, I was a young boy and accidentally boarded a pirate ship. Fortunately, I later put things right and led everyone to join the Jue Regiment, one of the ten major legions. The time I joined the Governor's Mansion should have been a year before the Marquis entered the customs."
"Returning chaos?" Qi Long repeated in a weird tone, and then said: "You would rather be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. If you don't do it as a good rebel leader, you come here to run for the top ten generals. It's really -
—Have ambition."
"The Marquis made a mistake this time. In the Earth Army, there can only be one Chicken Head, and that is the Divine Marquis. Only in the Governor's Mansion can I be the 'Chicken Head'," Ye Luoqiu paused and said:
"Master Hou, since Prince Pingtian Yuqi mysteriously disappeared a hundred years ago, there have been no 'chicken heads' here. In other words, as long as you become a member of the first three rows, everyone is a 'chicken head'. This
This is the reason why many people join the Governor's Mansion."
"Oh? Please tell me specifically."
Ye Luoqiu smiled lightly and said: "Master Hou, at our level, money, women, and power can be easily obtained as long as we want to. Only truly good things are the goals we pursue. For example, to prove the true god
The great opportunity, or perhaps the authority of this world,"
"My father is one of the six emperors of heaven and earth. He controls the heaven and earth to kill and punish, kill gods and demons, and is feared by humans and gods. However, he only borrows the power of heaven to do justice for heaven. This 'heaven' is the Demon Emperor Zhongwu, and the Demon Emperor
After death, he will be nothing; and only here can he grasp the complete power of heaven and earth, and this is the real 'divine court'."
Ye Luoqiu glanced in the direction of the top ten generals, with undisguised fanaticism in his eyes, and said: "To many people, they are traitors and careerists, but to me, their
Appearance is the real God's vision. It is precisely because the ancient country perished and the people behind the scenes did not intend to establish another demon emperor for certain purposes, so the power of deification will be delegated to our hands instead of handing over
To another emperor."
"The decentralization of divine power, the rise of military power, and the ability to prove God if you have strength and power. This is the world I yearn for."
Qi Lung understood what the other party meant. The giants behind the seven governor's houses did not want the next 'Dragon Vein King' to be born, so as to prevent them from getting what they wanted from this world, so only the Demon King could control it.
They don't mind sharing authority with the 'natives' of this world.
With the Demon King, everyone can only drink soup, but without the Demon King, everyone can go to the table and eat meat.
This is perhaps the biggest reason why the fortunes of the seven major governors are in full swing.
Qi Long was silent for a while and said, "Why did you choose me?"
"Because you have dragon veins, you are feared to a certain extent just like us."
"Interesting, am I the same as you?" Qi Long smiled sarcastically, not to mention the adopted father of 'Xue Baohou', but 'Xue Baohou' himself was a military general from the Wuping Governor's Mansion, so he was not an outsider.
"Of course, the evil spirit outside the pass is abundant and the spiritual energy is strong. Logically speaking, there will be more dragon veins born outside the pass. But in the entire Wuping Governor's Mansion, apart from you, is there any son of the dragon vein?"
Of course Qi Long understands why. The dragon veins in the entire seven governor's mansions should have been absorbed by the 'Nine Nether Legion'.
"So what, just join in."
Ye Luoqiu's eyes flashed, "Master Hou, you really know a lot, but Master Hou, if you join that legion, you are destined to participate in the future divine war. This is the most dangerous part of the whole catastrophe. Since Master Hou,
There is a great opportunity to become one of the top ten generals, so why should we sacrifice the easy for the difficult?"
"You've somewhat convinced me," Qi Long looked at the half-burned sandalwood in the incense burner, "But, even if according to what you said, there will be four places among the top ten generals, how do I know that after you use this
Hou, will you kick me away?"
Ye Luoqiu smiled softly and said: "Master Hou, there are only three of us in our small organization, including me, and they have already chosen their respective positions as generals. If Master Hou doesn't believe it, we can help you fight for it first."
The position of general belongs to you."
"The seat that belongs to me?"
"Bronze flag," an old voice suddenly sounded, and the entire venue fell silent for an instant.
Lian Tongqi raised his head, with a slightly dazed look on his red eyes.
"Come up here and sit here," Deputy Governor Hou pointed at the chair in the middle and said expressionlessly.
Everyone present was a thoughtful person. However, as soon as these words came out, the scene was in an uproar.
No one thought that the governor of the Hou Mansion would make this move.
The top ten generals are the face of the Governor's Mansion, but they are not the top level of real power. The generals above them are the generals who are in charge of a legion. After the generals step down, they are the generals who are in charge of the military strength of the entire Governor's Mansion.
General Ce, this is already the limit of human ministers.
In the three hundred years of Wuping Governor's Mansion, the only person promoted from General Tiance to the position of Deputy Governor was Lian Tongqi's father, the Deputy Governor Lian who was assassinated.
A burst of blood rushed straight to his forehead, Lian Tongqi's eyes suddenly widened, and his expressions changed several times in an instant, but his steps were delayed. After a long time, he said in a complicated tone: "Thank you uncle for your love, but Tongqi
How can one be so virtuous—"
"Your father is an iron hand practitioner, this is your ability," Commander Sima said lightly: "After the father dies, the son succeeds. This is what should be done. At this juncture, no one will object. Your father's group
I will leave the arrogant and powerful generals in your charge so that no one will have any inappropriate thoughts."
Ye Luoqiu withdrew his gaze and leaned into Qi Long's ear: "Master Marquis, he is in the position of the Beast God General."
There was no pushing or blocking, and there was no such thing as wearing a yellow robe. Lian Bongqi was silent for a moment, and then walked up with firm steps.
The old man from the Hong family stood up first and bowed to perform a military salute.
Mrs. Ye followed closely behind.
Then, the Grand Marshal of the Army, General Tiance, Zhongshu Ling, Shangshu Ling, and the highest officials of various ministries and departments stood up one by one and bowed again.
Like the wind blowing the waves of wheat, all the senior generals present stood up one after another. Regardless of their thoughts, they all showed the highest courtesy to the young deputy governor.
Qi Lung mingled in the crowd and glanced at the positions of the top ten generals. Three of them died, and one rose to heaven in one step. Logically speaking, there should be six generals present.
However, with only half a stick of incense left, only four figures appeared at the right places.
"I said, there will probably be a few vacancies," Ye Luoqiu said softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "If this little Lian Commander doesn't take the position, the Lian Family faction will at least ensure that
, six of the top ten generals are from them."
