Chapter 11 The Silver Conference
"Awang, I'll leave the day after tomorrow, right? I'll never go back here again?" Bai Qi lay on his side on the bed, looked at Zhou Wangjing under the bed, and said softly.
"Well, I probably won't come back for a long time. After all, university is still a bit far away from here." Zhou Wangjing held his head with his hands, laying in the quilt on the floor, looking at the ceiling and eyes reflecting the white moonlight outside the window.
"What's wrong, Bai Qi, don't want to let this place?" Zhou Wangjing turned his body and asked, realizing the girl's mood.
Bai Qi is now wearing pajamas, and the quilt is not tightly wrapped. His hands and arms are exposed, and they are shaking white under the moonlight, which is a little bit eye-catching.
She looked at Zhou Wangjing motionlessly, and when she heard his question, she replied, "Well, there's a little bit."
Zhou Wangjing sighed in his heart and felt a little guilty.
Since he went into exile with Bai Qi to settle down in the capital, he has changed many places to live, and the house rented by the old Bodhisattva has lived with the longest.
When will she be able to end this kind of life without a fixed place?
"But it doesn't matter, I'll get used to it soon anyway." Bai Qi suddenly smiled, and at the same time stretched out his hand and reached towards Zhou Wangjing.
Zhou Wangjing looked at the girl's hand stretched out, smiled, and stretched out her hand, gently holding her hand.
Looking at Bai Qi's sleeping face gradually calmly and feeling the tenderness of the two people holding their bonds, Zhou Wangjing gradually made a decision in his heart.
It was just when he was thinking about it until he was about to fall asleep that his cell phone suddenly rang.
"Hey, Moses, Moses." Zhou Wangjing yawned and said in a daze.
It's midnight, how could anyone call me now?
"I'm Wright Coolang." A voice full of energy came from the other end of the phone.
"Oh, Light Coolang..." Zhou Wangjing continued to glar.
Wright Coolang? I’m a little familiar with it. It seems that some of the special guests at that admissions press conference were called this. Some of them came to investigate their foundation members a few days ago. Their boss also seemed to be called Wright Coolang.
There are so many people who call this name... Zhou Wangjing almost fell asleep again as he thought about it.
The other party's next sentence made him rush with a carp and instantly woke up.
"Zhou Wangjing, do you want to join our SCP Foundation?" A voice came from the opposite side again.
"Of course!" Zhou Wangjing immediately responded without doubting the suddenness and authenticity of the words.
"A meeting will be held at the Silver Hall of the Santo at 8 o'clock this morning. I hope you can attend on time."
...
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the Silver Hall of the Sanctuary.
It is said to be a silver hall, but in fact, the main color of the entire hall is still white. The ground is paved with milky white marble. Nine huge carved dragon stone pillars surrounded the entire hall and supported the dome as high as 40 meters.
At this moment, hundreds of government officials, either wearing Huangyan National Court robes, or members of the foundation wearing their own team numbers, were sitting upright in front of four long round tables placed in the center of the hall.
The four rows of long tables are clearly divided, as if they are distinguished from four different factions, namely the old royal family headed by Prince Kang on the far left, and the new government represented by the empress next to them. Then, the other officials of the court who do not stand in the side of any faction occupy one table, and the most marginal table is filled with members of the SCP Foundation.
The Silver Hall where hundreds of people are located has almost no sound at this moment.
They were all waiting for a reason, the reason why the Supreme Empress of the Phoenix Yan Kingdom summoned them here early in the morning.
The civil and military officials of the two factions of the Huangyan Kingdom, almost all the members of the foundation who reside in the Sanctuary City, and the Silver Hall... The content to be announced at this meeting must be shocking.
There was only one person who couldn't hold back.
"I said, the meeting started at 8 o'clock...it has been five minutes now, why hasn't it started yet?"
Prince Kang, who was sitting at the first long table, said calmly, with an impatience and annoyance in his tone that made Earl William sit aside and turned pale.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, Your Majesty means that there is another vital person who has not been present, so the meeting cannot begin." The hospitality minister sent by the empress in the hall said respectfully.
After hearing this, Prince Kang couldn't help laughing, then raised his head and laughed out loud, stood up and pointed at the hundreds of royal palace nobles in the hall.
"Important? There are people who are more important than our civil and military officials in the entire Huangyan Kingdom?" Prince Kang's tone was full of sarcasm and meanness.
"Why, are the untouchables she has taken in? Or are the mistresses selected in it?"
Then Prince Kang looked at the other side, and the long tables where the foundations were clearly located were sitting. "Or, these wastes that would only collect garbage all over the world and then rush to feed monsters!"
The members of the foundation were fine, but although they were angry, most of them could control their emotions. The knights and generals of the Empress faction on the other table immediately stood up and pressed their fingers on the hilt of the sword.
Members of Prince Kang's group also stood up, and for a moment, both sides were at odds.
More people looked at each other without any action.
I have long heard that Prince Kang, as the empress's elder brother, was unable to inherit the throne, and the conflict between the two became increasingly thwarted, but I did not expect that he had reached such a point of almost breaking up.
Of course, they actually felt a lot of dissatisfaction in their hearts over the long period of time. As a woman who began to inherit the throne at the age of 19, these three years have made them bow down every day, either over the age of fifty years or holding power.
The most important thing is that as the emperor of the Huangyan Kingdom, he is so close to the independent world organization like the SCP Foundation, and even hesitates to exploit the interests of these people, he also wants to tilt budget investments to the foundation.
This has actually crossed their bottom line. In most people's hearts, they have long been looking forward to her being insulted or even falling into power.
So apart from the officials of the Empress faction, there was no one who stood up for her in the huge Silver Hall.
"Why, I want to do it here?" Prince Kang smiled proudly, and the servant beside him placed his hand on the pistol at his waist.
What Prince Kang looked down upon the most was these "stupid donkeys" wearing swords on their bodies every day. This is the case for these self-proclaimed knights, and the same is true for those warriors from the foundation. It seems that idiots all over the world are in common.
It’s been an era when killing people, guns will always be more effective.
Just as the two sides confronted each other, the door of Baiyin Palace was suddenly pushed open.
A boy who looked about 1.7 meters tall and looked a little thin stood in everyone's eyes.
Zhou Wangjing was sweating and panting at the moment, looking very embarrassed. He looked at the hundreds of people sitting in the hall, blinking his eyes in a daze, not very familiar with the situation.
The most embarrassing thing is that due to my sudden occurrence, everyone here also looked back at me.
Zhou Wangjing, think about what to say at this time. Zhou Wangjing, who realized that something was wrong, had his mind running quickly.
Chapter completed!
