Chapter 298 Your mother has become a widow again, poor(1/2)
When the four guardians heard this familiar voice, they all smiled bitterly.
Everyone looked at the door in unison, and saw a figure in green slowly walking inside.
This man's face is like a crown jade, elegant and handsome. He looks like a graceful and elegant scholar.
He has no aura and no moral charm. At first glance, he looks like an ordinary person without any cultivation.
"Big dragon head!"
When everyone saw this person, they stood up together and saluted with clasped fists in a respectful manner.
Even the four powerful Dharma protector masters are no exception.
The outside world doesn't know that this elegant and handsome man like a scholar is the leader of Ge Lao Hui, Luo Jishi!
I don’t even know that the leader of Ge Laohui is still Yizhou Mu!
Luo Jishi nodded and smiled at everyone, and walked through the Grand Hall like a leisurely stroll. The old god walked to the highest position and sat down naturally.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Everyone, please sit down, no courtesy."
"Yes." The protector, elders, helmsman, and hall masters all sat down together.
The four guardians were all a little uneasy, but they all looked calm and composed.
Luo Jishi looked around at everyone with a half-smile, and everyone who was touched by his gaze lowered their heads slightly, feeling awe-inspiring in their hearts.
Even the four great Dharma protector masters did not dare to openly challenge Luo An's majesty in the Ge Lao Association.
For more than 20 years, although Da Longtou is absent most of the time, he has always firmly controlled the power of Ge Lao Hui.
Luo An picked up a cup of tea, took a sip slowly, and said in a leisurely voice:
"As for me, I originally went out of the city to inspect the three major camps, but I didn't expect to come back at night."
"However, I received a secret report that the association is convening a high-level meeting. Since it is a high-level meeting, as the leader, how can I not be present?"
The Qinglong Protector had no choice but to stand up and explained bravely:
"Da Longtou is very busy with official duties. He is concerned about the safety of Yizhou and is responsible for the great task of suppressing bandits. He is the most important person entrusted by the emperor and the imperial court. He has devoted all his energy and dedication to it."
"The matters in the meeting are of no importance at all, and I really can't bear to trouble the big dragon anymore. So, the four of us took the decision without authorization and convened the meeting."
Protector White Tiger also stood up and explained: "I would like to teach Da Longtou that the four subordinates have no intention of hiding Da Longtou."
"It's just that, as Protector Qinglong said, Da Longtou is a state pastor, with urgent military affairs and busy political affairs. Although we are overstepping our bounds, our original intention is to share Da Longtou's worries..."
The two guardian masters, Xuanwu and Zhuque, also stood up and explained.
Only then did the four of them realize that even though they were all Dharma protectors and highly respected in the meeting, they were still powerless if they joined forces to fight against the big dragon head.
It was originally a coup to force the palace, but before it was officially launched, it was suppressed by the big leader.
Not only did the four of them fail to achieve their set goals, but they were unable to dismount and were very passive.
Only then did they understand that Da Longtou seemed not to care about Ge Laohui, but in fact he was always keeping an eye on Ge Laohui!
I originally thought that I could take advantage of this opportunity and call everyone together to decide on a few major events first and later, but I didn't know that this was all the big dragon's desperate tactics.
According to the rules of the Ge Lao Association, if Big Dragon Head insists on pursuing the case, they will all be in trouble.
Luo An's face gradually cooled down and he said calmly:
"I know, some of you think that I became a Yizhou shepherd, sitting on the side of the court, deliberately alienating Ge Laohui, regardless of the interests of Ge Laohui, right?"
"You think I am trying to abandon Ge Lao Hui or even betray Ge Lao Hui in order to get promoted? Right?"
"You think I have forgotten my roots, the great cause of the Brotherhood, and the hundred thousand brothers, right?"
"I think I am often absent from meetings and rarely preside over meetings in person. This big leader is a vegetarian meal, right?"
The four guardians looked embarrassed, "Big Dragon Head has misunderstood, my subordinates..."
Luo An waved his hand to interrupt them, "So, you have lost your patience and want to use everyone's grievances to unite to elect a new leader, right? Huh?"
His expression was very indifferent, even with a hint of a smile, but this question was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's hearts.
The four protectors were all third-grade masters, and they were all filled with awe at this moment.
They do want to seek power, but they have no intention of seeking another leader.
It’s not that I don’t want to.
I can't, I don't dare!
"What Da Longtou said, my subordinates are really ashamed of themselves." Protector Qinglong said solemnly, "My subordinates must not take Da Longtou's heart-breaking questions seriously."
"Today, my subordinates did act arrogantly. I asked Da Longtou to punish them. I have no complaints. But we have no intention of treason. It is unjust to judge Da Longtou and so on."
As a woman, Zhuque Dharma Protector said even more heartbrokenly:
"Da Longtou really misunderstood my subordinates. We are just doing this for Brother and Laohui and also for Da Longtou. How can we think of starting a new business?"
"My brother has followed the rules for hundreds of years. After the father dies, the son succeeds, the elder brother succeeds the younger brother, and the husband and wife inherit each other... Don't say that we don't have this intention at all. Even if we intend to betray, it is not justified."
"That's all." Luo An smiled again, "We are all brothers. I don't have to hold anyone accountable today."
"My brothers and I see your contribution to the Brotherhood and remember it in our hearts."
"Let's just say that back then, I lived in the countryside of Emei Tuo County for ten years and only returned to the main forum a few times. It was all up to you to take care of the affairs of the association."
The four of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Speaking of which, they have all done their best to protect the Dharma. Who is not loyal to Brother Lao Hui?
Seeing that he had beaten enough, Luo An said:
"Let me tell you first, since I am the leader of Ge Lao Hui, I must put the interests of Ge Lao Hui first!"
"I joined Ge Lao Hui when I was seven years old. I grew up in Ge Lao Hui for forty years now! What is Ge Lao Hui? It is my home!"
"Could it be that I would neglect my own family for the sake of the imperial court?"
Luo An's tone was a little emotional, "My brother has a hundred thousand brothers! They are all watching! Look at me! Look at Yizhou! Look at you!"
"My brother Laohui's centuries-old foundation in Yizhou cannot be destroyed in your hands, let alone mine!"
"Although I have become the shepherd of Yizhou and control the power of Yizhou, Yizhou is in chaos and the rebels are arrogant. How can I act rashly?"
"What is the secret purpose of the Ge Lao Hui? It is for Shu people to rule Shu! It is to restore the glory of the ancient Shu kingdom!"
"I! I dare not forget it! I dare not forget it!"
He pointed outside, "I hold an army of hundreds of thousands! I hold the gold and silver sea of Prince Shu's palace! But I can only watch the territory of Ge Laohui being taken away by the rebels! Why?!"
"Because the time has not come yet, we can only endure it!"
"Drinking ice for a hundred years can hardly cool your hot blood!"
"My son Mingzhao died in the hands of the rebels! But as a Yizhou shepherd, I can't avenge my son!"
"Once Brother Hui raises his flag and raises his troops, he only has one chance! We can't afford to lose!"
"If I were not the shepherd of Yizhou, if I were not the son-in-law of the King of Shu, do you know what would happen?"
"If you were to replace anyone else as Yizhou Shepherd, do you know what he would do?!"
Luo An pointed at everyone, "If someone else were to be the Yizhou Shepherd, at this critical moment, he would operate on Ge Lao Hui and uproot the hidden danger of Ge Lao Hui!
"Then, use the resources and industries that Ge Laohui has accumulated for hundreds of years to serve as military pay to kill the rebels!"
"If this is the case, my brother Laohui will be beyond redemption!"
"It was me who entered the Prince of Shu's palace and relied on the power of the King of Shu to remove the previous Yizhou Mu and seek the official position of Yizhou Mu! Only then did I preserve the foundation of the Ge Lao Hui!"
"Brother will be saved, and I can only use the resources of the Shu Palace to pay for the army! You tell me, where is my butt sitting?"
"Big Dragon Head..." The four guardians couldn't help but be moved, "Big Dragon Head... We misunderstood Big Dragon Head, and our subordinates will die. Please punish Big Dragon Head..."
"Big Dragon Head..." Many elders and helmsmen, including the hall master, couldn't help but burst into tears.
At this moment, their resentment for not getting anything done has disappeared.
Luo An sighed, looking at the night outside the door, his tone became more and more gloomy:
"Everyone here is my brother. Some brothers may know how the last big dragon leader died, right?"
"She gave up all the brothel business. As a woman, she thought it was a shame for women to sell their bodies. It was so self-motivated."
"You should remember that Ge Laohui gave up the brothel business and suffered heavy losses."
"The brothel business is a major source of wealth for my brother-old society, and it is also an important means for the brother-old society to control the world of Yizhou. I don't know how many brothers rely on this business to support their families."
"But she actually gave up!"
"Just because she is a woman! Are the interests and great cause of Brother Laohui inferior to her noble thoughts?"
"In addition, she also wants to give up the longevity drug business! She also has no desire to restore the country! She thinks that is a vain ambition!"
"So, I can only kill my wife to seize the throne! More than one person here knows about this, and I don't need to hide it."
"For the sake of the Ge Lao Hui, and for the sake of one hundred thousand brothers, I can only kill my relatives in a righteous way! Only the Spring and Autumn Period knows that I have sinned against me!"
"What I want to say today is that anyone who ignores the interests and great cause of Ge Lao Hui is not worthy of being the leader of Ge Lao Hui, including... Big Dragon Head!"
