Chapter 330: Discussions in the Court

"Your Majesty, the current captain of the security team, Tatsumi, is not competent enough for his position. Please dismiss him!"

"That's right. Since Lady Meili ordered Tatsumi to deal with Night Raid, he has not only failed to achieve any results, but also caused several officials to die at the hands of Night Raid. This is ridiculous."

"Yes! This makes people wonder if Tatsumi is involved with the assassins of Night Raid!"

That day, as soon as he went to court, Mika received opinions from many officials.

They kept complaining about Tatsumi.

They accused him of being incompetent and even colluding with Night Raid.

Hearing these people's voices, Mika couldn't help but laugh.

Mika naturally knew what Meili was thinking.

So he turned around and looked at Meili and asked, "Meli, you gave this to Tatsumi to do. Now he has not achieved any results. What do you think?"

Hearing Mika's question, the officials present all turned their eyes to Meili.

In response, Meili smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that Tatsumi is not doing a good job, but that the other party is really difficult to deal with."

"Oh, what's the reason?"

Miga smiled with his eyes up.

"This is because there are many targets for the night raid. According to our analysis, the target of the night raid should be those officials who held important positions when the former minister Ernest was in office."

"These people are widely distributed, and it is difficult to protect them one-on-one."

"After all, it is well known that the night raid is an assassination group composed of imperial weapon users. Their combat effectiveness is so strong that non-imperial weapon users can hardly resist it."

"Besides, there are many thieves. If they are separated, it will be easy to lead to their defeat one by one. If the imperial weapon is taken away, the situation will only get worse and worse."

"Therefore, the current situation is so corrupt."

After listening to Meili's words, the officials in the court couldn't help but think.

Then they couldn't help but shake their heads.

According to Meili, even if they put themselves in the situation, they still felt helpless.

After all, an assassination group composed of powerful individuals is very difficult to deal with.

Otherwise, the Night Raid Organization would not have taken root in the imperial capital for so long without being wiped out.

With the opponent's strength, it is difficult to catch them unless they fall into the trap.

"But we can't let them run rampant in the imperial capital, right?"

"If this continues, where is the dignity of the empire?"

"Can't the empire squeeze out more imperial artifact users to join this battle?"

Obviously, as the target of assassination, these ministers who once belonged to Ernest were not satisfied. They hoped that the empire could send more people out.

"Send more imperial artifact users? Do you think I haven't thought about it before?"

Meili glared at the other party coldly, scaring the other party and quickly stepped back.

"If there are enough people, would I not send them out?"

"Do you think I am killing you?"

"Is that so? Is this what you think?"

Meili said coldly.

"No, no, we don't have such an idea!"

Hearing Meili's words, several officials who had raised objections immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

They were originally people who were able to survive.

If they offended Meili, they would really have no chance of survival.

Glancing at her, Meili continued: "In the past thousand years, more than half of the 48 imperial instruments that originally belonged to the empire have already been lost to the people."

"Some are collected in the homes of the rich and powerful. Although they cannot be used, they will not be handed over."

"And the imperial instrument users who originally belonged to the empire were killed and injured in the previous two battles. Now there are only imperial instruments, but no suitable candidates!"

"In this case, where can I get the imperial instrument users for you?"

Hearing Meili's words, the whole court immediately quieted down.

They were all stunned by Meili's words.

The two battles that Meili mentioned refer to the battles in which Micah and Amid wiped out the forces of the general and General Esdeath, and the battle in which Esdeath alone wiped out the remaining forces of Minister Ernest.

Of the two battles, the latter was nothing.

But can the former battle be said casually?

Looking at the silent crowd, Meli took advantage of the victory and said: "Now General Esdeath has taken her old subordinates to the border of the empire to suppress the active foreign ethnic groups."

"Who do you plan to let suppress the night attack at this time? The general? Or your majesty?"

In the current empire, after the previous battle with General Bud, the officials in the court all believed that the current empire is led by Esdeath, Amide and Micah.

But obviously, the current situation cannot be so dangerous that the general and the emperor need to go out in person.

Therefore, Meli's words at this time are tantamount to heart-breaking words.

Sure enough, after hearing Meli's words, the people before immediately knelt on the ground and bowed their heads, indicating that they did not have such thoughts.

Hearing the cries of several people begging for mercy, Amide, who was standing aside, had no expression on his face.

As for Micah, he turned into a peacemaker and waved his hand, indicating that he did not care.

"So is there no way to deal with Ye Xi and others now?"

Micah asked loudly.

"There is a way, but you will have to pay a price."

Meili said calmly.

"Oh, what's the price?"

Micah continued to hold his eyes.

Seeing this, Meili chuckled and said, "As I said before, the reason why night raids are so difficult now is largely because the ministers are scattered."

"So the best way is to gather the ministers together for centralized protection!"

As soon as Meili finished speaking, someone shouted, "Yes, of course."

"But in this way, you adults will have to temporarily give up your official positions. After all, if you are centralized for protection, you can't move around at will."

"If it's just someone who needs protection, then it's no big deal. After all, his task can be replaced by his companions, but there are so many adults that they can't maintain the order of the court!"

"So you must hand over your positions to others!"

"Ah!"

Hearing that they need to hand over their positions, these people panicked.

If they weren't greedy for power, how could they continue to serve in the court at the risk of death?

So they had the idea of ​​​​refusing in their hearts.

But Micah won't give them a chance.

"It's just a mere official position, what's there to be nostalgic about."

"As long as you have the ability, you can get a good position at any time."

"So everyone can go to the refuge without worry!"

Micah chuckled.
