Liu Yan had no choice but to activate the python bead that Yan Guilai had left for her despite her reluctance. If Yan Guilai still did not return to preside over the situation, the entire Ministry of Political Affairs would be paralyzed.
On the other side …
Swallow Return was so busy that he could barely see the sky and the earth. He was concentrating on refining the Clear Willow Treasured Tree. Suddenly, he felt the energy fluctuation of the Positioning Python Bead being activated.
Before going into seclusion, Yan Guilai had warned everyone that unless something major happened … no one was to activate the python bead at will.
Yan Guilai frowned. Although he did not want to stop, he knew that the affairs of the Ministry of Political Affairs concerned the entire human race. It would be fine if nothing happened, but if something did happen, it would not be a small matter. There was absolutely no room for delay.
Yan Guilai sighed helplessly and closed his eyes. He transferred his consciousness back to his Void Avatar, which was his human body. The affairs of the Ministry of Political Affairs could not be delayed.
The next moment, in the secret chamber of the Ministry of Political Affairs, Yan Guilai's human body slowly opened its eyes.
Yan Guilai took a deep breath and left the secret chamber with a frown. He immediately rushed to Liu Yan's office.
Liu Yan did not have her own office. When Yan Guilai was around, she was basically just an assistant.
However, when Yan Guilai was not around, Yan Guilai's office would become Liu Yan's office. She would be in charge of everything in the Ministry of Political Affairs.
Yan Guilai pushed the door open and said with a frown, "What's going on? Didn't I warn you? If there's nothing major, don't disturb me … "
Faced with the angry Yan Guilai, Liu Yan hurriedly stood up from her chair and said with a bitter smile, "I know I shouldn't disturb you, but … if you don't come, the entire Ministry of Political Affairs will be paralyzed!"
Hearing Liu Yan's words, Yan Guilai was stunned. "The Ministry of Government is paralyzed? What's going on? Why is it paralyzed? Could it be that … all the officials in the Ministry of Political Affairs are dead? "
In the face of Yan Guilai's inquiry, Liu Yan immediately turned her head away and said with great grievance, "No … they are all very healthy, but … they know my identity as a hostess, so …"
Looking at Liu Yan in confusion, Yan Guilai said, "So what if he knows your identity as a hostess? What does this have to do with the paralysis of the Ministry of Political Affairs? "
Liu Yan's eyes turned red as she felt wronged. She took a deep breath and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, I know that they all look down on me. They don't want to accept a hostess as their leader. So … my current decree can't be issued. It can't even go out of the Ministry of Political Affairs. It was rejected."
Yan Guilai frowned and said, "Show me all the decrees that have been rejected recently. Hurry up … I have something urgent to do. I can't be away for too long."
Liu Yan nodded and hurriedly turned around. She ran to the desk, opened the drawer, and quickly took out a dozen decrees.
Yan Guilai took the decrees and looked at them carefully. After a few glances, Yan Guilai casually threw the decrees on the desk.
Yan Guilai said angrily, "Why did you ask me to come back for such a small matter? What were you thinking?"
Small … small matter?
In the face of Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan couldn't help but be stunned.
Originally, she was still hoping that Yan Guilai would come back to help her get justice.
But now, it seemed that everything that humiliated her was only a small matter in Yan Guilai's eyes?
Although many people said that death was not a big matter, Liu Yan didn't see it that way.
In Liu Yan's view, dignity and glory were more important than life. In any case, she couldn't accept such humiliation.
But …
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan opened her mouth, but she was interrupted by Yan Guilai.
Yan Guilai waved his hand and said, "I really have something important to do. I don't have time to deal with these trivial matters. You can do it yourself. Why are you looking for me?"
While speaking, Yan Guilai shook his head, turned around, and left …
Seeing Yan Guilai impatiently turn around and leave, Liu Yan suddenly burst into tears. He … he didn't care about the humiliation she suffered at all?
Patter patter …
In an instant, Liu Yan's clear tears slid down her face like pearls from a broken necklace.
Hearing Liu Yan's sobs, Yan Guilai couldn't help but sigh.
Shaking his head helplessly, Yan Guilai turned around and walked to Liu Yan's side.
Yan Guilai gently reached out and wiped the tears off Liu Yan's face. He said gently, "Don't cry. I really have something important to do. I really can't delay it."
As he spoke, Yan Gui Lai took a deep breath and continued, "To be honest, I don't want to be involved in the affairs of the Ministry of Political Affairs anymore. Once you can gain a foothold, I will leave completely."
Faced with Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan said, "But … but they don't listen to me at all. They don't agree with anything I say. They even publicly reject my orders. I simply …"
Shaking his head, Yan Guilai said, "Up until now, the Ministry of Political Affairs has only just been established. Many of the systems are still very imperfect. However, because of these imperfections … all the power is concentrated in the hands of the consul. Do you understand what I mean?"
Liu Yan shook her head blankly. Obviously … she didn't understand.
Sighing helplessly, Yan Guilai said, "To put it simply, outside of the Ministry of Law and the Ministry of Political Affairs, you can't interfere. You can now treat yourself as the Empress Liu Yan of the Qiankun World!"
What! How was this possible?
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan was completely stunned. How could it be so exaggerated!
Looking at Liu Yan's stunned expression, Yan Guilai continued, "If someone doesn't follow your orders, they'll be dismissed immediately! If one person doesn't follow your orders, then they'll be dismissed. If the entire Ministry of Political Affairs doesn't follow your orders, then they'll all be dismissed and re-established. "
Gently reaching out his hand, Yan Guilai patted Liu Yan's shoulder and said, "You have to know that everyone in the Ministry of Political Affairs was chosen in a hurry. I didn't have time to test them. It can be said that there are good and bad people mixed together."
As he spoke, Yan Guilai looked at Liu Yan and said, "Let me ask you. If I'm the one in charge here and the officials under me refuse to follow my orders, or even publicly oppose me, humiliate me, belittle me, and directly reject my orders, what do you think I should do?"
Waving her hand decisively, Liu Yan said, "Of course, such people shouldn't be kept in the team. They'll be dismissed immediately."
Nodding, Yan Guilai said, "That's right. That's the truth. You asked me to come back, and I could only make this decision. Then why did you ask me to come back?"
This! But …
Faced with Yan Guilai's explanation, Liu Yan seemed to have understood something, but there were still many things that she didn't understand.
Looking at Liu Yan, Yan Guilai said, "No buts … You have to remember that a wrong order can lead to a good outcome as long as everyone stays united."
After pausing for a moment, Yan Gui Lai continued, "Even if the government decree is good, the result might not be good because of the infighting and perfunctory work. It's likely that it will be bad." Patting Liu Yan's shoulder again, Yan Guilai said, "Okay, I really have to go. In short … your mission is to be in charge. Whoever obstructs you from being in charge is your enemy. You don't have to look for me, because even if I come back, I'll only support you. Even if you do something wrong, it's more important than anything else.
Don't be stubborn! "
