Chapter 923 Does this wretched place called the Cabinet still have any dignity? (Updated first, revi
This resembles a clandestine power struggle between Yin Shisan and Grand Secretary Chen.
It was clear that the entire process was led by Grand Secretary Chen, and the contest proceeded according to his plan. Grand Secretary Chen held a completely dominant position, which meant that Yin Shisan seemed to have been caught off guard by this situation...
until……
"Has he gone mad? Yin Shisan actually crushed the cabinet edict in front of everyone? He's blatantly slapping Grand Secretary Chen in the face."
"Damn it, upstairs, are you pretending to be someone else? Don't you know the relationship between the Red-Clothed Cult Leader Pei Ziqi and Young Master Yin? How could the White-Clothed Swordsman sit idly by and do nothing about the Red-Clothed Cult Leader?"
"What relationship? I have no idea what their relationship is?"
"???! Rivals in love! Pei Ziqi is Yin Shisan's most trusted henchman and Qin Shang's girlfriend, so naturally they are rivals in love."
"Holy crap? So that's how it is?"
"Holy crap, this is actually a love story?"
"I thought the tense atmosphere during the live broadcast was a feud between Grand Secretary Chen and Young Master Yin. But after hearing what you're saying, does it mean that Grand Secretary Chen arrested Young Master Yin's rival and is deliberately trying to use this opportunity to kill him? Is it an olive branch to win over Yin Shisan?"
"That's possible! Don't let Chen Ge Lao's age fool you; I've heard he's quite the ladies' man, and he might actually be thinking that way!"
"But I have a question, sir upstairs. Who is Qin Shang?"
"You don't even know Qin Shang?! Qin Shang is the infamous one who licks cockroach jade feet..."
Wow!
A stone stirred up a thousand waves.
After all, to be fair, there are probably very few players in this forum who don't know that Meng Licking Cockroach Jade Feet is the one who licks cockroach jade feet, but even fewer who know that Qin Shang is Meng Licking Cockroach Jade Feet. In fact, there are probably very few people in the entire Shenlu official forum who can accurately call out the real name of this undoubtedly influential figure!
"What? So the real name of the guy who licks cockroach legs so fiercely is Qin Shang?"
"Holy crap! Mom, the couple I shipped has become real! I knew you could find real couples at work. I never thought that the white-clad swordsman, who is known for being aloof, expressionless, and indifferent to women, would actually be a couple with the cockroach-licking jade feet."
"You must be mistaken? I seem to remember that before joining the Bad Guys organization and becoming a Divine Path player by licking cockroach jade feet, Young Master Yin had quite a bit of dealing with the Wanbao House, a non-governmental organization?"
"Is it?"
"Yes! I seem to recall that there were rumors circulating that Young Master Yin was the cousin of the Red-Clothed Cult Leader of Wanbao House."
"Holy crap? My cousin and my younger cousin are fighting over the same man? That's even more interesting. It's like a family drama with a love story. That sounds even more intriguing..."
"Didn't you all see that just now? Yin Shisan seemed to be trying to protect those people in the arena. Now is not the time to talk about this. Didn't you hear Elder Chen's introduction of those guys who were forced onto the stage?"
"Those all seem to be wanted players..."
"What's wrong with being a wanted player?"
"???"
"Something's not right with the comment upstairs. Is this an official forum? These are wanted players, players that the official Bad Guys organization hates. If Yin Shisan wants to protect these wanted players, doesn't that mean he's planning to openly confront the Bad Guys organization?"
"Oh right, that makes sense!"
"Damn! If that's the case, then it's over. Doesn't that mean Yin Shisan is completely finished? Although I realized when I saw Pei Ziqi that this was a conspiracy by Grand Secretary Chen, which was to deliberately force Young Master Yin to take action against Grand Secretary Chen on a personal level, so that the latter would have a pretext to suppress him, I really didn't expect that Young Master Yin wouldn't even be willing to use delaying tactics or stall for a minute or two, and just started cursing so bluntly."
"Damn! I just got the news that the battle has officially begun. Young Master Yin's legend is about to fall. Won't Brother Cockroach Jade Feet be heartbroken in the future..."
"Are you all out of your minds? What nonsense are you spouting? Why are some people even feeling sorry for Yin Shisan? It's only right that he fell. Yin Shisan is truly insane. He actually dared to openly protect a wanted player. If it's confirmed that his cousin is the Red-Clothed Cult Leader, how could Yin Shisan not know about all the shady things his cousin has been doing behind the scenes? In my opinion, he's been in cahoots with the Bad Guys for a long time. It's very obvious that Yin Shisan has long harbored rebellious intentions. I really hope that Elder Chen can immediately take action to suppress him!"
"Exactly, exactly. Yin Shisan's words can be interpreted as a declaration of war against the cabinet and the righteous path that the Bad People organization has always upheld. This kind of person almost became the sixth cabinet elder. Fortunately, he revealed it himself before the small meeting ended today. Otherwise, I don't even want to think about what the cabinet would be like if he really took power."
"Are you two new here?"
"Of course! Look at their profiles, none of them registered more than three days ago. They're either new players on the Divine Path or..."
The player who made the comment didn't type the word "internet trolls," but the other intelligent people who were currently browsing the thread understood his perfectly timed, hesitant meaning.
"Is it possible that something is amiss with those few wanted players, and Yin Shisan is planning to spare their lives? To be honest, I haven't even seen their wanted posters. Are they really criminals in real life?"
"No matter what the reason, as long as they are wanted players, they are the opposite of the political correctness of the Bad Guys organization. As the sixth Grand Secretary who almost rose to power in the government, Yin Shisan dared to openly show his attitude and stance and be on the same side as them. In terms of both sentiment and reason, no matter what, this is somewhat of a trampling on the dignity of the cabinet."
At first, the players didn't understand what was going on, and their discussions were chaotic. Later, with the influx of a large number of online trolls, as Chen Boxu had predicted, Yin Shisan became the focus of everyone's condemnation. The only ones who were slightly more rational were the players from non-official organizations. However, the official and non-official players who had initially thought of saying a few words in support of Yin Shisan, seeing that the tide had turned and the narrative had completely shifted to the point of Yin Shisan's guilt, all shut up and stopped talking.
"Yin Shisan deserves to die! The organization valued him so much, and yet he pulled this stunt at the very end..."
"Hehe, no wonder these wanted players have been able to evade the large-scale crackdown time and again. It's because there's a mole among us."
"I used to believe that Yin Shisan was upright and incorruptible, but it turns out it was all an act. Speaking of which, that guy he once supported, called 'Fierce Cockroach Jade Feet,' might also be hooking up with a wanted player, right?"
"Tch! Isn't everyone aware of Yin Shisan's hypocrisy? You guys used to call him the light of dawn, the last breath of fresh air. I wouldn't even dare to say that I once went to his house on a weekend to deliver documents to him. Holy crap, you guys have no idea how luxurious Yin Shisan's place was. It was absolutely luxurious!"
“Yes, yes, I used to be in the Chaoyang District Orderly Squad. Several times when our investigations hit a bottleneck, Yin Shisan would jump out and tell us to put the cases aside for the time being and send us out to other places. When we came back in the end, most of those cases had already been hastily closed. Now it seems that some of the cases may have involved the transfer of benefits behind him. He was abusing his power and acting as a protective umbrella for others!”
"Damn! He even embezzled?"
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! Yin Shisan may have some kind of financial dealings with these wanted players, otherwise how could he afford luxury cars and mansions?"
Verbal and written condemnation!
The insults continued!
In fact, everyone has seen the cabinet's style and approach over the years.
Those who actually speak out are only a very small minority, even among official players. Most of the veteran players have remained silent after seeing the current state of the live stream and the comments section.
Because they don't know what they can do or say.
Those who were familiar with Young Master Yin's style knew that something was amiss. It couldn't possibly be that Yin Shisan had really colluded with some heinous, wanted players. The identities of those wanted players were even more questionable, especially since Grand Secretary Chen had chosen this form of public trial, which reeked of a conspiracy. Otherwise, why would Grand Secretary Chen have remained hidden for over ten days, only to suddenly stage such a high-profile public trial upon his reappearance? And who had been notified beforehand...?
This is like not notifying me before a meeting, but then calling me in during the meeting.
This small pre-cabinet election meeting was not announced or notified in any official forums before today. Then, accompanied by a live broadcast, the meeting was somehow brought to the public media and held!
What does this resemble? It goes without saying... The notice of the meeting was not even given to these casual netizens, but when the meeting was about to start, the live streaming permission was opened, so that everyone could watch. Isn't this a blatant attempt to exploit their power of public opinion?
You might say this isn't a conspiracy, this isn't a setup...
Who believes?
To anyone with a modicum of common sense, this is similar to what happened in a previous post when a construction worker asked his boss for leave.
"Boss, my wife is due to give birth this month, and I'd like to ask for leave to go back home!"
"Go ahead, go ahead, your wife is giving birth, it's true, as a man you have to be there."
"But brother, haven't you been working with me on construction projects for the past three years and haven't gone back home even once?"
"Yes, boss. I've been away from home for three years. My wife is due to give birth this month, so I wanted to ask you for leave to go back home."
"?"
You've been away for three years and haven't been home in all three years. Your wife is due to give birth this month.
I can understand each sentence individually, but put them together... do you want to listen to it yourself and see if it's still in Chinese?
You haven't been home for three years, so whose child is it?
Bro, are you sure this kid is yours?
Your wife doesn't want you to come home; she just needs you because she's broke and wants to have her illegitimate child with another man.
This guy's wife is just like Chen Ge Lao in the audience right now...
He needed to leverage the power of public opinion, which is why he broadcast this pre-meeting briefing live.
But so what?
Young Master Yin's actions—crushing the cabinet's edict and his earlier remarks—clearly indicate that he intends to protect those on the stage.
This last beacon of righteousness in the hearts of countless players seems to have been provoked.
The veteran players behind the screen, watching the barrage of comments condemning Yin Gong, fell silent, sighing inwardly.
Ugh!
In the end, Yin Shisan failed to cross the path of transformation from a dragon to a dragon, dying at the last step before leaping over the dragon gate.
This is the brilliance of Grand Secretary Chen's methods!
But just then, a golden comment floated across the screen, attracting all the players who were watching the live stream.
"Killing me!"
"Please speak properly, everyone, and stop joking!"
"What I'm saying is... does this lousy place called the Cabinet even have any dignity left?"
boom--
Post ID...
'Lick the cockroach's jade feet vigorously!'
