However, Miao Yi also knew that the so-called dismissal was just a formality. He could forget about returning to Sky Street. After he left, Sky Street would definitely return to how it was before. It was only a matter of time. Fu Qing couldn't stop the wishes of so many influential families and shops. As long as the Celestial Emperor couldn't win over all the influential families in Sky Street, it would be useless no matter what he did. Fu Qing wouldn't risk his life like he did, and he couldn't afford to.
However, relatively speaking, Fu Qing's situation was much better than when Miao Yi first became the Great Commander of Sky Street. At that time, those without a powerful background wouldn't be able to secure their positions. Now, at least they didn't care about that anymore. Instead, those with powerful backgrounds would want to rope them in. As long as Fu Qing made some concessions and didn't harm the interests of the influential families, nothing would happen.
In Yang Qing's words, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing for Miao Yi to leave Sky Street. Otherwise, someone would come looking for him to settle the score from back then. The Left Supervisory Guard's shell was still strong, but it was a pity to waste the profits.
Miao Yi quietly left Sky Street with Fei Hong. He wanted to defend himself, but he still needed Fei Hong, the victim, to speak up for him.
After arriving at the Dong Hua Town Manor, as expected, what could the Dong Hua Town Manor find out about him if they were to investigate him? Even Fei Hong herself thought that the two of them were in love with each other, so nothing should have happened. However, the higher-ups insisted on messing with Miao Yi. There were too many testimonies that could prove that Miao Yi was the one who robbed him. Fei Hong's testimony now could only be considered as not pursuing responsibility.
Miao Yi no longer had a place in the Sky Street system. In other words, Sky Street didn't want him anymore. The Heavenly Empress went with the flow. She had long wanted to kick this troublemaker away, and now she finally had the chance.
No one wanted him in Sky Street. The Left Supervisory Guard's transfer order was sent to Dong Hua Headquarters.
Holding the transfer order, Miao Yi had the urge to resign and leave. However, he had offended too many people. Without the protection of the rules, there were countless people who wanted to kill him.
The transfer order only allowed him to bring ten of his former subordinates. The Left Supervisory Guard wouldn't accept any more. He was given a month's time to hand over his subordinates, and another three months as time to travel. In total, he was given four months to rush to the Black Dragon Division of the Suppressing Second Guard's Big Dipper Army and report to the Black Dragon Division's headquarters, Nie Wuxiao.
Miao Yi had heard of the Left Commandant, Pojun, and the Right Commandant, Wuqu. However, he had never heard of the Suppressing Second Guard Commandant and the like, but he had met the Lieutenant of the Big Dipper Army before. It was that bastard Yu Zhongzhen. Who the hell knew what Nie Wuxiao, the Head Commander of the Black Dragon Division, was? Just from his name, he knew he wasn't a good person. He definitely wasn't as famous as Miao Yi. Otherwise, it wouldn't be the first time he heard of him.
Below Long Si was the tiger flag. Miao Yi didn't know which Tiger Banner he would be assigned to as a Grand Commander.
It would be blind to ask Biyue about the situation of the Left Military Supervisor. The Imperial Guards of the Celestial Court did not have a fixed base. In order to maintain their spirit, they had always been nurtured through battles. Wherever the Celestial Emperor pointed, they would fight. If they discovered bandits, they would go to the east and west. The internal personnel were promoted and demoted based on military merits. The changes were also rapid. Not to mention Nie Wuxiao, even Yu Zhongzhen and Biyue did not know who Biyue was. She didn't even know when the Big Dipper Army led by Yu Zhongzhen had set up camp in Marquis Tianyuan's territory.
After a long conversation with Biyue, regardless of whether Hai Pingxin was willing or not, Miao Yi didn't want to keep her by his side anymore. He was prepared to hand her over to Biyue by force. The situation over at the Left Military Supervisor was unclear, and Hai Pingxin kept getting close to Fei Hong. He was afraid that something would happen sooner or later.
Biyue was also worried that he would bring Hai Pingxin to the Left Military Supervisor.
After leaving the East Flower Headquarters, Miao Yi brought Fei Hong back to Heaven's Origin Planet.
"Why are you sighing again?" Miao Yi couldn't help but ask when he saw Fei Hong sighing.
Fei Hong said bitterly, "It's all my fault, Milord."
The more she acted, the more disgusted Miao Yi felt. He really wanted to slap her, but on the surface, he still put on a carefree smile and said, "I asked for it. If I could control myself, this wouldn't have happened. "
When he returned to Heaven's Origin Planet's City Guard Palace, Miao Yi was no longer the Grand Commander of Heaven Avenue.
The news of his dismissal had already spread throughout Heaven Avenue, but some of the merchants in Heaven Avenue didn't dare to rejoice too early. Instead, they were more well-behaved than usual. They didn't dare to be arrogant too early. They didn't want to make a comeback until they could confirm that this person was really leaving. The consequences would be unimaginable. That madman wouldn't do anything. He had endured it for so long, so he didn't mind enduring it a little longer.
This was the last time Miao Yi used his title as the Grand Commander of Heaven Avenue to summon the commanders of the four districts in the City Guard Palace.
In the rear hall of the Assembly Hall, Fei Hong looked around. She quietly approached the door and listened carefully, trying to hear what was being said inside.
Suddenly, a sinister and hoarse voice came from the side, "Madam Ru, what are you doing?"
Fei Hong was startled. She tilted her head and saw Yan Xiu's strange smile. She forced herself to calm down and said, "I have something to discuss with Milord."
Yan Xiu smiled slyly and said, "Madam Ru, you are not an official. They are discussing official matters inside. It is not convenient for you to come in contact. I will inform Milord later." He then gestured for her to leave.
Fei Hong nodded and turned to leave. After taking a few steps, she looked back again, but Yan Xiu was nowhere to be seen.
Inside the hall, Miao Yi, who was sitting on the highest seat, patted the armrest of the Grand Commander's throne and chuckled, "Everyone, I have taken advantage of the handover. This is the last time I will be sitting on this seat. I can't bear to part with it!"
When he said this, it was no different from telling everyone that he was really going to leave this time.
Xu Tangran, who was standing below, asked anxiously, "Is the Grand Commander really going to leave?"
Miao Yi stood up and walked down the stairs with his hands behind his back. He sighed, "I have no choice. I have no choice but to leave. That Grandma Lü is too powerful. I have already been kicked out of Heaven Avenue. I have already accepted the transfer order from the Left Supervisory Guard. I have four months to go and take up my post. I will still be the Grand Commander, but my rank hasn't changed. As for the handover, I have already recommended Fu Qing to be the Grand Commander here. The main town has also agreed, so it shouldn't be a big problem. Fu Qing is familiar with the situation, so there is no need for a handover. "
His wives and concubines were all here. He had to leave at least one of his own people here. With Bi Yue keeping him in check, there shouldn't be any big problems. Fu Qing was left here, and the Invincible Eagle would also stay in the Donghua Headquarter. Biyue promised to let the Invincible Eagle take over Xiahou Longcheng's vacant position. Only Xiong Wei and Hong Tian would be transferred away.
Hearing that Fu Qing was going to stay here, Xu Tangran was more or less relieved. With Fu Qing taking care of him, he wouldn't feel too bad even if he had to stay here. At most, he could just pretend to be a coward.
Miao Yi continued, "The Left Supervisory Guard has given me ten slots. I can take ten people with me. If any of you are willing to come with me, I can take them with me."
Fu Qing and Invincible Eagle were prepared to leave with Miao Yi. However, Miao Yi stopped them. He could only take ten people with him. He couldn't take all of their subordinates with him. Once the two of them left, their subordinates would lose their pillar of support. Something would happen sooner or later, so he couldn't take them with him.
Xu Tangran and Murong Xinghua were silent. This wasn't a difficult decision to make. It would be fine if they went to a good place, but could they find a better place in the Celestial Court than the Celestial Street? Being a commander here wasn't any worse than being the Left Supervisory Guard's Grand Commander. Moreover, the Left Supervisory Guard was a little dangerous. They often went on expeditions, and people died too often. It wasn't as safe as the Celestial Street.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Miao Yi chuckled and said, "I won't force you. I still want to stay here for a few more days. Everyone, you can think about it. When you go back, ask around and see if anyone is willing to go with me. If anyone is willing, I will take them with me."
West District Commander's Office. Xu Tangran returned to the inner residence in a daze and slumped on a chair.
At the side door, Xue Linglong pushed aside the bead curtain and walked out. She took a cup of tea from a maid and placed it in front of him. After dismissing the maid with a wave of her hand, she sat on the other side of the tea table and asked, "What did the Grand Commander say?"
Xu Tangran waved his hand weakly and said, "I couldn't turn the situation around even after going to the Left Supervisory Guard's office. I still have to leave. I have already received a transfer order from the Left Supervisory Guard to be the Left Supervisory Guard's Grand Commander."
Xue Linglong furrowed her brows. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Will it have a huge impact on Milord in the future?"
Xu Tangran smiled bitterly and said, "Fu Qing is going to inherit the Grand Commander's position. I don't think he has the charisma of the Grand Commander to suppress those merchants. I'm afraid I'm going to be a grandson. "
Xue Linglong lowered her head and sighed softly. She knew a little about her husband's situation. She couldn't say much about the things he did while he was by the Grand Commander's side all these years.
The hall was silent for a long time. Suddenly, Xu Tangran straightened his body and asked, "Madam. What do you think about me going with the Grand Commander to the Left Supervisory Guard? "
"…" Xue Linglong stared at him speechlessly. After a while, she reminded him, "I heard that the Left Supervisory Guard often goes on expeditions. It's very dangerous. The benefits might not be as good as here. Have you really thought about it?"
Xu Tangran stood up and paced back and forth. "Fu Qing and Invincible Eagle are going to be promoted soon. They will soon be in power. With the current situation, there are plenty of people to rope them in. Murong Xinghua has a backer, but what about me? What do I have? After Fu Qing inherits the position, he will naturally want to promote his trusted subordinates. I'm afraid it's a little awkward for me to occupy the position of the Grand Commander! If it's a short period of time, Fu Qing might still care about old friendships. But after a long period of time, I'm afraid he will close one eye. His subordinates will definitely want to mess with me and will definitely think of a way to bring me down. If they are gentle, it's fine. At most, it'll be a problem of where to go. If they are ruthless, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my life. Moreover, I have offended too many people in this Tianjie. Rather than pretending to be a grandson here and ending up in a miserable state, I might as well take a gamble with the Grand Commander. When I go to the Left Supervisory Guard, I'll fight and kill. Even if I hide a little, I'm still the Grand Commander's subordinate. Why would the Grand Commander make things difficult for me? Moreover, the Grand Commander isn't someone to be trifled with. He might be able to gain a foothold in the Left Supervisory Guard. If he can gain a foothold in the Celestial Emperor's Imperial Guards, it won't be any worse than here. Moreover, since Grandma Lu has the ability to make the Grand Commander the Left Supervisory Guard and even wants to promote Fei Hong, she will definitely ask her connections in the Left Supervisory Guard to take care of me. Anyway, in the future, I'll have to pretend to be a grandson here. My benefits won't be as good as before. The things I get in this position are enough for us to use for a long time. Most importantly, it doesn't matter if I'm the only one being humiliated here. My reputation isn't that great anyway. If I, as a man, am humiliated along with Madam, how can I bear it! Rather than sulking here, I might as well leave with the Grand Commander. At least I can live happily. Madam, what do you think? "
Xue Linglong also stood up and looked at him with a complicated expression. She asked softly, "Have you really made up your mind?"
It was easier said than done. With the uncertain future, Xu Tangran was still a little conflicted. He said, "If Madam doesn't want to leave, then we'll stay here."
