Chapter 932 Department of Justice
There was an uproar in the Lingxiao Palace as the gods quarreled over the talents and no one was willing to give in.
You know, from the founding of the Heavenly Court thousands of years ago to the present day, there have only been five or six rounds of great bestowals, and each time occurred after a huge turmoil.
Once you select outstanding talents to join your department, the impact will be hundreds of thousands of years or even longer. Whether the future will be hard work or glory depends entirely on how you select people now.
A large number of talented people emerged during the catastrophe. This is the inevitable prosperity after the disaster. The gods must seize the trend of rise and fall.
There are also some immortals who put their own personal recommendations on the list, recommending some people they know or their disciples, but this is all within the permitted range and is not a big deal.
The gods in heaven have little power in the mortal world, but some of the great immortals have many disciples under their command. If Anshan had not been so dazzling during the catastrophe, I'm afraid that 90% of the people on the list would be these people.
"Well, it's not proper to quarrel like this."
Several Dao Lords looked at each other and stopped the debate among the gods in time.
"This list is of great importance. I will consider it carefully and choose the appropriate god position for them. Please do not hurt the harmony."
The Emperor of Heaven comforted the gods with a calm and composed smile on his face.
All the gods in heaven bowed and dared not say anything, but there was still a hint of competition hidden in some small expressions.
This kind of competition was within the controllable range, so the Emperor of Heaven stopped interfering in it. After discussing a few matters concerning the construction of Heaven, he turned to look at Li Yuan.
"Li Xiaoan, the God of Justice, has a calm personality and good qualifications... I want to establish a Ministry of Justice, which I will personally manage to supervise the various departments of the Heavenly Court, uphold the law, and ensure the peace of the three realms."
"However, the Ministry of Justice is just starting out, and some details still need guidance from predecessors..."
"I wonder what you think, Yuan Zun?"
The Emperor of Heaven smiled and dropped a bombshell in front of all the gods.
The Ministry of Justice supervises all departments in Heaven and is personally managed by His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven!
It’s over. If I want to do anything tricky in the future, I have to please the God of Justice first!
Some immortals and gods felt secretly bitter in their hearts, and because of their long-term selfishness, they had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.
Li Xiaoan is a righteous man! Raised by Yuan Zun and taught by the Emperor of Heaven, he has great luck, powerful strength, and a strong network of connections.
Want to please Li Xiaoan? But he has everything he needs, he just wants to do his job well!
Not wanting to bother looking at the reactions of the gods, Li Yuan on the throne just blinked slightly in response to the Emperor of Heaven's question.
Just build it, why are you asking me? I need guidance from predecessors... Am I a predecessor? I am just here to make up the numbers!
Do you still want to assign a position to him? Do you think he is the hardworking model worker in the Heavenly Court who is Senior Xuanlong? No way!
"Hehehe...The Emperor of Heaven is far-sighted and thoughtful. What he said is right."
"May our Heavenly Palace be glorious forever!"
Li Yuan has shouldered the responsibilities of being the common lord of mountains and rivers, Yuankui Star Lord, and the self-proclaimed number one immortal in the world. Facing the hint from the Emperor of Heaven, he simply responded in a mess.
He even picked up the small wine bottle, toasted the Emperor of Heaven, and drank it all in one gulp with a smile.
Looking at the cheating Yuan Zun, the Earth Mother and the Hades, who were sitting on the Lingxiao guest throne, also stroked their foreheads helplessly.
This kid... even though he's already a great man, he still looks like a piece of shit...
The Emperor's face was obviously dark for a moment, but he still maintained a calm smile: "Haha, Yuan Zun is very humorous..."
"I dare not, thank you, thank you..."
"Your Majesty, come, come, drink... After you finish this cup, there is still one more cup, ton ton ton... Come, come, after you finish this cup, there are still three more cups..."
"Everyone has worked hard, let's have a drink together!"
Li Yuan shook his head like a rattle and continued to read randomly, ignoring Lao Zhang's dangerous eyes.
He also toasted the gods with a glass of wine. Upon seeing this, many fairies hurriedly brought in plates from outside the hall. The gods also quickly picked up the wine glasses on the jade plates and toasted them respectfully.
There was nothing the Emperor could do about this fellow. He turned his head to glance at the Queen Mother, and seeing that she was smiling demurely and slightly enduring a weird smile, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly.
The gods in heaven also secretly suppressed their laughter. They vaguely saw the young Li Yuan in the past, who also had a reckless look, which made people angry and amused.
But this guy knows his limits. Although he jokes, he never takes the wrong stand on serious matters. No wonder the Emperor of Heaven has both love and hate for Yuan Zun.
After Li Yuan's interruption, the atmosphere in the Lingxiao Palace eased a little. The immortals and gods from all parts of the Heavenly Court responded together, and after putting down their wine glasses, they looked at each other and suddenly smiled calmly.
We are all working together in the same palace, so why should we quarrel? No matter how we fight, the general interest is to continue the glory of Heaven.
After drinking a cup of immortal wine together, all the grudges in the gods' hearts disappeared.
"So...let's give me a few outstanding talents for the Plague Department?"
Among the crowd of figures, the God of Plague felt that the atmosphere was right, and secretly pulled the sleeve of an immortal god with whom he had just quarreled.
He also stuffed a handful of fairy melon seeds into the other person's pocket.
"hehe!"
The immortal god from the Thunder Department sneered and said nothing, as if you were dreaming.
How can I back down when I bear the name of the Thunder Department?
The Thunder God silently put away the fairy melon seeds and shook off the Plague God's hand.
The Plague God's face suddenly turned dark, and he muttered something in a low voice, but no one could hear it clearly.
In the hall, the Emperor of Heaven continued to describe the status and role of the Ministry of Justice with a stern face and a solemn tone, which could be regarded as a reminder to the gods.
"The head of the Ministry of Justice will be managed by the Justice God for the time being. You can give priority to selecting ten people with excellent merits and virtues on the list as the Ministry of Justice's assistant gods. The Ministry of Justice will command 30,000 heavenly soldiers and 50 heavenly generals. Later... I will arrange for another useful person to manage together with the Justice God."
The Emperor of Heaven's intention is also very clear. He will not let Li Xiaoan hold power alone, lest the Ministry of Justice develop into a one-man show where the God of Justice has the final say, which would defeat the original intention.
As for the matter of priority selection, that is a small test.
As long as one has a little bit of insight, one will be alert in his heart and not look for old friends who he used to know well, otherwise the gods in heaven will feel it is unfair.
The Ministry of Justice is directly under the Emperor of Heaven and supervises all departments. It has great power and must not mix too many creatures in Anshan, otherwise it will become corrupt in the eyes of the Emperor of Heaven and the gods.
After a long time, you will be suspected.
Li Xiaoan naturally understood this truth. He stepped out from the group of gods, bent his knees and half-knelt, respectfully accepting the order.
Looking at the handsome and energetic young man, Li Yuan, sitting on the throne, smiled with satisfaction.
The child has grown up and has wings to soar into the sky. I no longer need to worry about him.
In the future, the God of Justice will create his own wonderful story.
