Star Sea Lord

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked!

** Qing's face was slightly cold, and he said in a toneless manner: "Your Excellency, Marshal, if you have different opinions, you can definitely raise them, but don't you feel that you have a share in speaking like this?"

"Of course I have opinions!" Xue Cangyun sneered,

"Who is the instigator of the mess in the Northwest Territory, and who should be more responsible for it, so I don't need to say more? Now you are still relentless, what exactly do you want to do? You have to use these things to shed blood for the empire. Is it true that soldiers who fight and go through life and death all their lives are willing to die?"

He did have reason to be angry. Marshal Qin Weigeng had handed over his power and retired early for the sake of the face of some people present!And Feng Linbo and others were also stripped of their military power, leaving them idle!In order to take care of the so-called overall situation, the military has made enough concessions.

But this gang of damned politicians still refused to give up, and actually brought up the old matter again at this plenary meeting, not only to deprive the old marshal of all honors as a soldier, but also to ruin his reputation and spend the rest of his life in prison!How can he bear this?

Yu Hongbo, a member of the newly established ruling council and minister of the Ministry of Information Industry of the Empire, squinted his eyes at Xue Cangyun, and said slowly:

"Dear Marshal, you can't say that! If it weren't for the improper deployment of the Ministry of National Defense and the ineffective command of the front-line generals, how could the many autonomous territories in the northwest border fall so easily? Although that place is not part of the empire It is directly under the territory, and the people who can live there are also the people of my Huaxia Empire!"

"Casualties of tens of billions of people, this has never happened in the empire for hundreds of years! How can such a heavy loss and such a serious crime be offset by dismissal?"

A sullen voice then sounded: "That's right, Qin Weigeng's fault was a crime against the entire empire. He is not worthy to be called a qualified soldier at all. I agree with His Excellency ** Qing's proposal. These sinners of the empire must be sent to prison." Court-martial, but also a public trial. Announce their crimes in front of hundreds of millions of imperial citizens. Then execute them by shooting as a warning to others!"

This time the speaker was a shriveled old man in conservative clothes. His old face was covered with dark spots, and he wore a pair of ancient tortoiseshell glasses on the bridge of his hooked nose. There was a cold light in his cloudy eyes from time to time. He was the new imperial publicity director.

Xue Cangyun was furious, pointed at his nose and cursed: "Zhuang Chenglin, don't bring your tricks of turning black and white and confusing right and wrong here! I won't follow your tricks! If it weren't for you bloody bastards to hold you back , Lao Tzu has already given up the royal court of those beasts!"

**Qing slapped the table and scolded angrily: "Xue Cangyun, what is your attitude? The victory in the Northwest War was the result of the joint efforts of the entire empire. It is not entirely due to your military! Don't think that you fought in the Northwest." After a few small victories, you can take credit for it and be arrogant!"

Zhuang Chenglin said coldly: "Your Excellency, Marshal, you have only been in office for a few days, do you want to exercise power and despise the authority of the Supreme Executive Council? Do you want to build an independent kingdom, relying on military power in your hands? Can you do whatever you want?"

This kind of accusation was not malicious, and many people in the conference room looked at Xue Cangyun suddenly became subtle.

It seems that the newly appointed No. 1 in the military, with the prestige of a great victory, has indeed been a bit too popular recently, and has even overshadowed his predecessor.Plus he has a stronger personality.In the prime of life again, he will definitely be a more difficult character to deal with than Qin Weigeng in the future.

Let such a person stay in such an important position.Is it really in your long-term interests?Many important figures secretly pondered in their hearts.

Xue Cangyun was trembling with anger, and cursed angrily: "You old man, I know you and the master behind you don't like me, if you want to get me down, that's up to you! Wait until the next time the group When the wild beasts come, you bastards are probably not good enough to feed them! I want to see what can happen to you and him..."

The conference room exploded, and many people angrily accused the marshal of being rude and rude.

People who dared to slap the table at the highest power center of the empire to scold, "mother", probably had never happened in hundreds of years, but Xue Cangyun, who participated in the plenary meeting of the ruling council group for the first time, set such an earth-shattering precedent.

Tang Xudong shook his head silently, with a look of regret on his face.

Wei Zhenhua looked at the audience coldly, and those who dared to speak out to scold the marshal were all relatively junior figures, some of whom were new substitutes this time, and more senior members, including the rest of the Grand Consuls, were Yes kept silent.The faces of several members belonging to the military were full of worry.

Wu Chenyu frowned and said: "Your Excellency, Marshal, you have lost your composure! This is not a teahouse outside. As a member of the ruling council, please pay attention to your words and deeds!"

Yu Hongbo said coldly: "If you really can't control your emotions, you might as well go out and calm down first. When you have figured it out, come back to the meeting!"

Xue Cangyun sneered and said: "Let's just go, I've had enough of dealing with dirty people like you!"

He picked up the military cap on the table, put it on neatly, kicked the seat away, and walked towards the closed door of the conference room not far away under the gaze of many indifferent, disdainful, and gloating eyes.

"Wait!" Just as he walked to the door, a calm voice suddenly sounded.

Xue Cangyun stopped in his tracks, turned around slightly, and looked at the highest consul without speaking.

Qin Qiyuan closed the document in his hand calmly, and said calmly:

"Your Excellency Marshal, your words and deeds just now violated the discipline of the Supreme Executive Council. This is not the behavior that a qualified imperial leader should have, so..."

Zhuang Chenglin, who is accustomed to observing words and expressions, immediately said: "I agree with Your Excellency Qin Qiyuan's opinion. Xue Cangyun's words and deeds are indeed not in line with his current status, so I think we need to reconsider..."

"Um!?"

The Supreme Consul's eyes suddenly became as cold as a knife, and he burst out with a unparalleled aura, staring coldly at the reaction of the Minister of Propaganda.

Even though this guy was old, cunning, and deep in the city, he couldn't help shivering under this piercing gaze, and swallowed the rest of his words timidly.

Qin Qiyuan's sharp and substantive eyes slowly swept across the faces of all the participants, and everyone he saw couldn't help but avoid looking at him, not daring to look at him.

There was silence in the conference room.

After a while, the voice of the supreme consul rang out: "Therefore, please return to your seat, Your Excellency Marshal. Continue to attend the meeting! Because this is the power granted to you by the imperial constitution, and it is also your responsibility and obligation!"

** Qing was slightly startled, and wanted to speak, but after seeing Qin Qiyuan's calm expression, he suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation in his heart, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

Yu Hongbo secretly glanced at Wu Chenyu, the prime minister of the empire looked calm.Unhurriedly sipping the already cold tea in the cup, completely unresponsive to changes in the outside world.

Xue Cangyun pursed his lips, silently gave a military salute, and walked back to his seat with steady steps.

With just a few words, the supreme consul regained control of the meeting.

Wei Zhenhua breathed a sigh of relief, originally Qin Qiyuan didn't intend to say anything.He will have the opportunity to show his favor, although he may take some risks.But as long as the marshal's position can be slightly biased towards him in the future, it will not be considered a loss-making business, and of course the current result is not bad.

Qin Qiyuan tapped the table lightly with his slender fingers, and said slowly:

"After all, Marshal Qin Weigeng devoted most of his life to the empire. There is no credit but hard work. The empire should not forget his contribution. This time he can retire and rest. It can be regarded as fulfilling his wish! Therefore, there is no need to bring up this matter again Already!"

"As for the fault of Feng Linbo and others, there was a reason for the incident. It was not a crime of war! In addition, when the Imperial Army began to fight back, these people also made a lot of credit. So I think it's better to give them another redemption. opportunity. Hmm... the war with the North Underworld Prisoners will start soon, let them go to the south then!"

"I don't know what you think?"

Wei Zhenhua immediately stated: "This kind of opinion is very fair, and I have no objection!"

Tang Xudong then said: "I have no objection either!"

Xue Cangyun took a deep look at the supreme consul, and said in a deep voice, "I have no objection!"

Next, everyone at the meeting expressed their opinions one after another, but this time it was a veritable "unanimous approval".

Qin Qiyuan nodded with satisfaction: "Okay! That's it! In addition, regarding the empire's military budget plan for the next year, and Marshal Xue Cangyun, out of consideration for the future security situation of the empire, he proposed a package of armament expansion plans on behalf of the military. , I have already discussed with His Excellency Wu Chenyu, His Excellency Wei Zhenhua, etc., and feel that such a plan is necessary and in line with the current and long-term interests of the empire!"

"Time is running out, so I propose that you approve these two budget allocations and implement them immediately. What do you think?"

"Seconded……"

"Seconded……"

"I also agree..."

……

Jiang Family Mansion.

In the advanced intensive care ward, a group of senior doctors are nervously busy around the big bed in the middle.

The fourth heir of the Jiang family was lying upright on the bed, staring blankly at the hanging decorations on the ceiling, making a few unconscious smirks from time to time, with saliva dripping down the corners of his mouth. The snow-white sheets were already wet in large swaths.

A few majestic middle-aged and elderly people stood by, with extremely unfriendly expressions.

A group of young master Jiang Yanyun's confidantes knelt at the door tremblingly, their faces were pale, and they dared not show their breath.

A middle-aged man with sharp eyes and wearing a general uniform asked coldly:

"What happened last night? Who plotted against the young master? What were you all doing at the time? I want to know all the ins and outs of the incident!" (To be continued. For mobile phone users, please go to m. to read.)
