Chapter 374 Tell the truth!

Bu Yuanxun frowned, thinking that he might know who she was talking about. Back then, Sun Ce joined Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to attack Zu Lang and then Lu Kang, both of which were victorious. However, Yuan Shu treated Sun Ce very arrogantly. Not only did he not give him any titles or rewards, but he also had someone set up a separate table outside the palace at the celebration banquet, and did not even let Sun Ce eat in the house. Several generals under Sun Ce even stood in the palace without even a seat. After that, Sun Ce decided to leave, and used the imperial seal as a pledge to borrow troops from Yuan Shu. Since then, the tiger has returned to Jiangdong...

But he couldn't really bring a chair for Ai Wanxin, so he could only say in a deep voice: "We are here to report the situation of Zhangcheng Base to the parliament, not to drink tea and chat."

Ai Wanxin raised her hand and snapped her fingers. A white-blue fire snake sprang up from the ground and coiled behind her to form a hot and dazzling high-back armchair. The temperature in the conference room suddenly rose, and Bu Yuanxun and Li Fanbo were forced to step back several steps.

The flame on the armchair shrank, but the temperature was still extremely high. Ai Wanxin sat down on the chair as if she could not feel the high temperature at all. She looked up indifferently and said, "Then you can stand."

A smile flashed across Li Fanbo's serious and solemn eyes, and she quickly connected to the video link to the Parliament Building through confidential communication.

The image of Ai Wanxin sitting in a blue and white flame chair appeared in the center of the meeting hall on the top floor of the Parliament Building.

The congressmen who were sitting upright were suddenly in an uproar.

Ai Wanxin was also a little surprised. She didn't expect that the Speaker would convene the entire parliament.

But she didn't show it at all.

Ai Wanxin's clear eyes moved slightly, taking in the holographic image of the council hall.

She was not unfamiliar with the council chamber in front of her. She had seen it on the news at least eight hundred times if not a thousand times.

The golden hall has extremely high ceilings, its walls are decorated with stained glass and huge murals, and the floor is covered with golden red jacquard carpet. This wool carpet with an area of ​​nearly 500 square meters is woven in one piece and is extremely luxurious and gorgeous.

The golden soft chair in the middle of the north side of the hall is the Speaker's seat, and Feng Jingyi, wearing a purple Speaker's robe, sits firmly on it.

To the left and right of the Speaker's seat were the seats for the highest military chief and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He Shifeng, wearing a dark military uniform, sat on one side. He had a solemn expression and a dignified demeanor. When Ai Wanxin's eyes swept over him, he nodded very slightly.

On the other side of the Supreme Court justices' bench sat a silver-haired, elderly man wearing a red justice's robe. His back was thin and hunched, and a closer look revealed that his jaw was shaking uncontrollably.

This was Chief Justice Wen Guangyu. Ai Wanxin remembered that he did not look so obviously old before the end of the world.

Without keeping her eyes on him for too long, Ai Wanxin looked towards the seats for the councillors three seats below.

The seats for the congressmen were all red soft-padded chairs, arranged on both sides of the council hall. At this time, about three-quarters of the 400 seats were occupied - the seats vacated by congressmen who died after the apocalypse had already been filled through emergency meetings.

While Ai Wanxin was observing them, the members of the parliament in the council chamber were also observing her.

Everyone in the council chamber had more or less heard of Ai Wanxin's name and deeds, but only a small number of councillors with higher authority had looked at her information.

Even the congressmen who had read the information found it hard to believe when they saw Ai Wanxin's true image that this woman with the highest spiritual power and the fastest rising speed in Yan Country was actually so young.

Moreover, after the video call was connected, both executive officers Li Fanbo and Bu Yuanxun stood at attention and saluted, but she stood still. She looked around the entire audience with a calm and confident demeanor, and it was no exaggeration to say that she was sitting on a throne.

She is indeed as arrogant as the rumors say!

The sound of the congressmen whispering to each other was like the buzzing of a swarm of bees. Feng Jingyi raised his hand, and the noise in the venue gradually died down.

Feng Jingyi's eyes were steady, and his calm voice was clearly heard by every member of parliament present through the radio receiver on the ground. It was also transmitted to the meeting room of the temporary command center on Longji Mountain in Zhangcheng.

"Last night, there was a strange noise from the direction of Zhangcheng, and half of the sky was as bright as day. Colonel Bu Yuanxun, what happened at the base?"

Feng Jingyi did not ask Zhangcheng executive officer Li Fanbo about the situation at the Zhangcheng base, but asked Bu Yuanxun from Songcheng. Some sharp-minded congressmen had already guessed his thoughts.

Ai Wanxin watched Bu Yuanxun take a step forward, her mind racing. She didn't believe that Bu Yuanxun hadn't reported the situation of the base to Feng Jingyi in such a long time from last night to now. Moreover, why was it necessary to convene the entire parliament to listen to this matter? It seemed that they were going to make a big fuss about her coming to Zhangcheng.

"Your Excellency the Speaker, members of the House of Representatives—" Bu Yuanxun had just opened his mouth when Ai Wanxin interrupted him with a smile.

"Chairman Feng, Colonel Bu was not involved in what happened at Zhangcheng Base and Fengge Lake yesterday, so he doesn't know the full picture. Right now, there are many things to deal with at the base, so I'd better let me tell you all about it in one go."

The councillors in the council hall were in an uproar again. They looked at each other, surprised that Ai Wanxin had confronted Feng Jingyi so bluntly. She knew that the person sitting opposite her was the speaker, right? She knew that, right?

Feng Jingyi's face was slightly gloomy, but he didn't get angry. A fat middle-aged councillor sitting in the first row on the right stood up and said loudly: "If I'm not mistaken, you are Ai Wanxin from Fengcheng Base. Before reporting the situation at the base, can you explain why you are in Zhangcheng Base when you should be in Shuangcheng?"

He Shifeng raised his bright eyes slightly, and a congressman sitting in the first row on the left, also in military uniform, stood up and counterattacked: "Congressman Cui, do you need me to remind you that the Zhangcheng base is only 300 kilometers away from Guanghui City, and even Guanghui City felt the explosion last night. The most important thing now is to find out what happened, whether Guanghui City and other bases will be attacked in the same way, and how to take precautions in advance to protect the people -" He paused, and continued, "and the lives of all of you. Things have their priorities, you should understand this principle, right?

Cui Zhengrong snorted coldly and tapped the dial on his wrist: "General Chang, forgive me for being blunt, the explosion happened last night, and it's already nine o'clock in the morning, and the detailed report has not been sent to every member of parliament. Your military and security bureau are too inefficient. Isn't it a bit unrealistic to expect you to protect the lives and safety of the people?"

Hearing the name, Ai Wanxin remembered that she had seen the short film of Councillor Cui. Her face wrinkled slightly, and she really didn't recognize him after he put on the clothes.

The people in the council hall were always paying attention to her expression. Seeing her bitter face, Cui Zhengrong was overjoyed. He felt that she was just a little girl with little knowledge. He immediately asked, "Ai Wanxin, you appeared in Zhangcheng. Did you leave your post on your own initiative, or did someone mobilize the army without the approval of the council? Tell the truth!"
