The villain and I have eight hundred minds combined

Chapter 53: Political Discussions in the Court (1)

But she is in need of people right now, so there is no reason to make the relationship so awkward in public. If she can avoid making enemies, having one more person is the best strategy. Being clear-headed and pretending to be stupid is the best strategy.

So, she praised Feng Xiao solemnly in the hall, saying that he was meticulous and prudent in his work, and was a role model for everyone, and asked them to learn from him.

Everyone was silent, with different expressions on their faces. Taking this opportunity, Mu Hanxing quickly said to everyone, "This time when I came to the mortal world, Gong Yu helped me solve a supernatural case. Therefore, today I specially give him the name 'Si Yuan' to express his farsighted thinking and profound knowledge. From now on, you can call him Si Yuan Guo Shi."

Everyone was shocked again, with surprise on their faces. Fuyue City had been built for so long, but no hero had ever received a special title. Gong Yu was the first one.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord!" Gong Yu quickly stepped forward and said gratefully.

She deliberately did not give Jing Chen a title. She was originally planning to give him some advice and not let him become arrogant because of his favor. Besides, it was still hard to say whether he was involved in the murder of the monarch.

Then, she announced: "At present, the position of the head of the Xingyu Prison is still vacant, so the deputy head Huan Chong will take over the position temporarily. If he abides by his duties and fulfills his responsibilities during the interim period, he will be the first candidate for the position of head."

Huan Chong also stepped forward quickly, with an excited look on his face: "Thank you, Lord City Lord, I will do my duty!"

"Well, very good." Then she was silent for a while and glanced at Leng Feiren beside her, "Brother, I didn't have time to discuss this appointment and title with you due to the rush of time. I hope you don't mind."

She is now an extremely hypocritical superior who is very good at being false. Even if this kind of arbitrary behavior is reasonable, she still has to take the feelings of the second city lord into consideration.

Sure enough, Leng Feiren was slightly startled, as if he had not expected it, and quickly shook his head at her: "Why would I mind? You have always had the final say on matters like this, Junior Sister."

"Well, thank you, brother."

After talking about these matters related to his position, Mu Hanxing continued to ask solemnly: "This war involves three realms. In addition to General Funing who died in the battle, there are also the human realm, the sea realm, and many tribes in the heavenly realm. I need a few people to go to the relevant places and ask them what they plan to do. Will they compensate for the losses of Fuyue City or wait for me to massacre the city? Is there anyone who volunteered?"

This statement was extremely consistent with the character of the female devil. The people present felt accustomed to it, but they had different thoughts and no one knew what they were thinking.

Jingchen's face changed slightly. He knew very well in his heart that when she said she wanted to massacre the city, she was not just saying it casually. She had done this kind of thing before. In order to find him, she spent a lot of time, clearing out those who hindered her, and wading through a river of blood. In order to achieve her goal, she was a person who would do anything to achieve it.

After everyone was silent for a while, Leng Feiren said, "Junior sister, after this battle, countless soldiers were killed. It is not appropriate to fight again at this time. It may be disadvantageous to our Fuyue City."

Unexpectedly, Gong Yu's job was snatched away by Leng Feiren. Mu Hanxing certainly didn't want to provoke a war again. Before her spiritual power recovered to its peak, it was wise to choose to avoid fighting. However, she couldn't show that she was afraid of fighting on the surface.

She began to act unhappy and showed a little anger: "According to Senior Brother's opinion, should we just let this matter go? Fu Ning is dead, but who sent him? If it was the current emperor of Huajing, I would bring 5,000 elite soldiers to Huajing to kill him and make sure that the dog emperor would never think of getting his hands on even a brick or tile of my Fuyue City again."

Jing Chen below frowned slightly.

Leng Feiren was worried and advised her, "Of course we can't just let it go like this, but the current strength of Fuyue City has been greatly reduced. I hope that Junior Sister can think long-term. If we go now, it will be like fighting against many enemies alone, which is really disadvantageous to us."

Mu Hanxing looked thoughtful. She pondered for a moment and nodded: "Senior Brother, what you said makes sense. What do you think?"

At this time, the brothers Feng Ping and Feng An no longer took the threat of death seriously and quickly stood up to speak, looking extremely arrogant.

Feng Ping held his head high, looked at her straight in the eyes and said, "I think what the Second City Lord said makes sense. Currently, Fuyue City does not have enough new soldiers, and many veterans have died or been injured. What can we use to compete with the Three Realms?"

It is obvious that Feng Ping is best at "copying homework", which is equivalent to repeating what Leng Feiren just said.

Feng An followed up on his brother's words and said, "That's right, brother, what you said is absolutely right."

Dog legs.

When it comes to giving advice, these two guys can't do anything but go against her. They also like to act like an elder and act in a pretentious manner in front of her. What's the point of keeping them around?

Mu Hanxing cursed the two in his heart, but then he suddenly had an idea and pretended to praise them: "Well, Elder Feng Ping and Feng An's contributions to Fu Yue City over the years are obvious to all. They can also give me some insights at this critical moment. It is really an honor for Fu Yue City to have you two here."

After hearing this, the two were slightly stunned, as if they had never expected Mu Hanxing to say such a thing. They thought she was going crazy again.

After all, the fact that the two of them were not on good terms with her was something that the whole city knew about. There was no need for them to pretend or do any superficial work. Besides, Mu Hanxing and Feng Ping had just had a fight in the Court of Judgment.

Feng Ping coughed lightly and became even more cocky: "I have been an immortal for a hundred years, so it is only right for me to set an example for these younger generations."

"Well, what Elder Feng Ping did makes me very happy, so why not take this opportunity to give you some rewards." Mu Hanxing said calmly.

Everyone was stunned, not knowing what the city lord was trying to do.

Feng Ping himself was even more confused.

"As his brother's right-hand man, Feng An should enjoy the same treatment as him. This is only fair."

Everyone held their breath and listened attentively to her "praise".

"The two elders have worked hard for our Fu Yue City for so many years and have exhausted countless immortal energy. Although they have not lost their lives, they are indeed sad and tired, and their immortal lifespans have been shortened. I am very sympathetic to them, so from now on, Elders Feng Ping and Feng An will enjoy special permission to rest throughout the year. If there is any important matter, I will ask someone to let the two elders come to discuss it." Mu Hanxing said with a look of grief and pity on his face.

The two of them were stunned, their brains were confused for a moment, not knowing whether this was a reward or...

There was a slight uproar among the people below. This moment was the best time to distinguish people's IQ. Many people showed envious expressions, only a few people knew what was going on and looked calm, and even fewer people showed heavy expressions.

Isn't this clearly a move to prevent the two old men from participating in politics? It's almost like a promotion in name only and a demotion in reality.

That's right, she plans to let the two old men retire early! Don't interfere in politics!
