Chapter 391 Shantora's Concession
Time passed minute by minute, and on the street outside the conference room, the commoners and nobles of the Luoshen Kingdom were happily shopping, relaxing or entertaining on the street.
Under the building, Mei Lin worriedly said: "Lord Throne, it has been twenty minutes since the meeting started, should we go up?"
Tian·Jie did not speak, Hallet behind him Said: "Meilin, what are you in a hurry? Our people are making trouble up there. This The meeting can't be held. If you want to keep your position, just wait here. 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. Even though they were separated by the distance of the thirteenth floor, they were 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 Korra, her co-seat. The deputy said: "Sir, how long do we have to wait before we go in? The conference room is already very noisy now."
Kora heard the noise in the conference room, but did not hear it. He didn't move, just said: "What is the world of heaven?" We will go in at any time."
The man said: "What if Tianjie doesn't go in?"
Kora closed her eyes: "Then neither will we. Go in.”
In the conference room, it was almost noisy, and everyone was arguing about whether the meeting should continue. Those under the influence of the King of Heaven are 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 if the skill was open or not. But Little Red Riding Hood on the side wanted to help Shantora control the situation, but when he saw that the people making trouble were all subordinates of Tianjie, he had no choice but to bear it and ignore it.
Shandora faced such a situation. Although she wanted to control it, she knew very well that even if she spoke, these people would not listen to her unless she really moved with them. Take action, but if you really do this, you will only put yourself 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, it's time for us to go in."
Just as she was talking, there were footsteps coming from the direction of the stairs, and the sounds of Merlin and Hallet 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 came behind her.
“Isn’t this Lord Korra, the King of the Underworld?” Tianjie shouted from behind.
Kora coughed twice, turned around, and said in a weak voice: "It turns out to be Master Tianjie, I thought you were inside."
"Kora "Master." Hallet and Meilin both behaved like subordinates. Cora's deputy also returned the gesture.
Tian·Jie smiled and said: "I encountered something 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 Cora is still so kind, let’s hurry up. Come in, please."
Kola instead made way and said: "I am weak and walk slowly, so Master Tianjie should walk in front...cough...cough cough. ..."
"Okay." Tianjie bowed to Korra like a gentleman before walking past with his subordinates. But Cora was still supported by the deputy seat, walking slowly behind Tianjie.
In the evening, at 8:52, 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 his seat and said: "Throne of the Heavenly Realm, you are finally here. If you don't come, we won't dare to start this meeting."
The Heavenly Realm smiled and said: "Little Red Riding Hood, you You're kidding, if you say that, I will be the sinner of the organization."
Hearing him call her nickname, Little Red Riding Hood frowned, but then she immediately smiled.
Tian·Jie is very tall and tall. He stands alone in front of the conference room door, and there is no one left or right to pass. He heard a cough behind him and quickly stepped aside to let Cora go first before opening the door.
Kola 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, Pushing his passenger seat away, he stretched out his hand for Little Red Riding Hood to support, and walked to his throne position. Since Cora arrived, almost all eyes have been fixed on her. Black and white hair, gray-white skin, black eyes, and two small vampire-like fangs in her mouth when she smiles, all complement her beauty to the fullest. Even though she was pregnant, it not only did not diminish her beauty, but also 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 treats, 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 Heaven Realm, you came at a good time."
"Hahaha." Tian Realm said with a smile: "Something happened to me on the way. GITW's criminal guard, Steel Needle Aile, suddenly appeared. Nearby, this happened unexpectedly "I can't do that."
"Really?" Shantora said: "What about you, Ms. Mei Lin of Pisces Palace?"
"I..." Mei Lin looked at it. He glanced at Tianjie and said, "I heard about Steel Needle Aile, and I went with Lord Throne to help."
Shandora said: "That means you have arrived a long time ago The Imperial Capital, why don’t you come?”
Mei Lin was so frightened that her face changed: "This... I, I also want to do more things for the organization and contribute more."
Shandora slapped the table and scolded: "You are so presumptuous! When I came to Shendu, I didn’t attend the meeting on time, and I didn’t come to report to me. Did 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 to reduce my own guilt. "
"Master Throne!" Tianjie 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 have worked so hard to lay in Danluer for so many years is gone. Okay, something so big happened. Mei Lin can't bear such a big crime on her own. I think she just wants to make some contributions to the organization as soon as possible."
As soon as Tian·Jie said this, the people in the palaces under his influence immediately said good things for Mei Lin, not just those in the twelfth palace. Many people, even the patriarchs outside the Zodiac, spoke for Mei Lin.
Shantara looked at these people. Those who came to the meeting were all people in the organization's core circle. Now almost half of them are helping Mei Lin speak for Tianjie, which means that Tianjie alone controls half of the forces in the organization! Shantara is also a smart person. Without Tianjie, she can't even organize the triennial meeting. After these two things, she knows that it is not yet time to disturb the people in Tianjie.
Little Red Riding Hood, who was sitting next to Shantora, saw that she had been hesitating to speak, and already understood what she meant. She stood up and said: "Such a big thing happened over there in Danluer, let us The income they had worked so hard for was gone. As the director there, Pisces had an unshirkable responsibility. However, Cronstone and Mei Lin of Pisces had worked for the organization for so many years and had made a determined decision. I don’t know how much credit they have made, but our organization cannot wipe out all their achievements because of this mistake. Now that Cullenstone is dead, the most saddened one is his wife, Mrs. Meilin. I think Mrs. Meilin. It’s already painful, and since she wants to make up for her mistakes, don’t punish her any more.”
Shandora knew that this was Little Red Riding Hood trying to find a way out for herself. A month or two ago, she had already created a huge momentum for abolishing Mei Lin, and almost everyone in the organization knew about it. But now that 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 would be embarrassed. But if there were high-level figures from organizations outside the world interceding for Mei Lin, she would also It's not so embarrassing. So she immediately asked: "King of the Underworld, King of Airspace, what do you think?"
King of Airspace Otis said: "I have only been in the organization for a few years, and I am still a newcomer. I am not sure about many situations. . And there are so many seniors here, what they mean is That's what I mean."
Shangdora thought: "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 Kou. La, 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 joined the organization a lot. Ms Merlin may have joined later, but Cullenstone He had been serving the organization for many years before I even joined it. This incident resulted in Cullenstone's death. Could it be that his many years of service could not make up for this mistake?"
< br>Shandara looked at the deputy seat of King Poseidon again.
The deputy seat of King Poseidon said: "I have no special opinion."
Shandora asked the people in the twelfth house again: "What do you mean?"
People in the twelfth house are all controlled by the Four Kings. The Four Kings have already expressed their opinions, so 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 the fault. I think he will be fined five million coins and demoted one level, but he will still serve as the head of the Pisces Palace."
Everyone understood this punishment. Well, Shantora must have taken a step back towards the heaven. A fine of five million coins may seem like a lot of money, but the leader of the organization does not have such a small amount of money in his private collection. As for being demoted by one level, although it seems to be a bit of a punishment for her, according to common sense, if a person in the Twelve Palaces is demoted by one level, he should retreat to the first level of the Patriarch outside the Twelve Palaces, or be a deputy seat, but Shantora Still letting her temporarily take over the position of the Twelve Palaces is still the same as not being demoted. As long as new achievements are made, the word 'temporary' can be removed, and the position of two people in Pisces Palace will be in charge of Mei Lin alone from now on. Not only did this not lower her, it actually made Mei Lin's power go one step further.
Tian·Jie looked at Mei Lin who was kneeling on the ground and said: "Your Excellency, it is because of Cullenstone who has made great contributions to the organization for so many years that he treats you lightly. Are you unhappy?" Thank her?”
Meilin thanked her repeatedly.
Shangtara said: "Sit down quickly, we still have a meeting." She looked at Mei Lin who happily sat back down, and she felt extremely angry. But on the surface it was still the same as usual, because she knew that if she didn't do this, the people in Tian·jie would not know how to make trouble again, and then the entire organization would be in chaos.
