Chapter 11181: Chapter 11180: The Battle of the Three Kingdoms!


In other words, Prince Qin’s Mansion had probably predicted this situation and was planning to use this opportunity to accelerate its expansion!


In name, the Security Review Division conducted a top-down review to prevent spies from being infiltrated by the G.o.ds.


However, in reality, once it was established, it would undoubtedly become a sharp sword hanging over everyone’s heads.


In the end, whether or not this sharp sword would fall, and whose head it would fall on, would depend on whose head would be labeled as a spy of the G.o.ds.


It was obvious that the person who had the right to attach this fatal label would not be the emperor of Great Zhou, nor would it be the other va.s.sals and ministers. It could only be him, the King of Qin!


The emperor’s expression darkened completely.


He was not a fool. He knew very well that if the situation really reached that point, he, the puppet emperor, would basically enter the countdown.


The Security Inspection Division would become a powerful tool to eliminate the opposing forces for the King of Qin. It would be the perfect foundation for his subsequent regime change and his eventual ascension to the throne!


However, the sad thing was that even if he saw through the sinister intentions of the King of Qin, he could not stop it at this moment.


Not only could he not stop it, but as the current emperor, he had to support it!


Otherwise, the next second, he would be picked up by the King of Qin in public and forced to stand on the opposite side of the entire Inner Court!


Under everyone’s gaze, the emperor secretly gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice,” Your Majesty, you are right. I agree to establish the Safety Inspection Division. However, as for the specific candidates, I think that all of you need to carefully consider them and elect them. After all, this is a matter of great importance and cannot be neglected.”


“Your Majesty is wise.” The King of Qin cupped his hands.


This reaction was somewhat unexpected.


The emperor thought that since the other party was scheming, they must be determined to win. Today, he would use this opportunity to firmly grasp the power of the Safety Inspection Department.


Lin Yi saw it clearly.


All of this was part of Qin w.a.n.g’s plan.


With the current power structure, especially after the Hundred Seedlings Plan, the gap between the other dukes and King Qin’s Residence had been further widened.


As long as the Security Investigation Division was established, even if it wasn’t the King of Qin’s Mansion that dominated the place at the start, it would eventually fall into the hands of the King of Qin.


To put it bluntly, the general trend was here. As long as the King of Qin did not make a big mistake, all unexpected events would only accelerate his progress to the top.


This was simply unstoppable.


Since the outcome was already decided, there was no need for the King of Qin to be too overbearing at this critical juncture. He would attract more hostility for no reason and leave behind hidden dangers in the future.


Boiling the frog in warm water was the best solution.


In the end, the emperor and the king of Qin decided on the candidates for the Safety Inspection Department tomorrow.


All the va.s.sals and civil and military officials were filled with worries.


The aftermath of the great calamity of the laws had yet to be digested. For the matter of tomorrow’s candidates, who knew how many important figures would secretly contact each other tonight and spread the news.


After the court session ended, Lin Yi saw the elder princess Zhou s.h.i.+yu at the entrance.


“Follow me, Brother w.a.n.g is waiting for you.”


Zhou s.h.i.+yu was obviously not very satisfied with this task of running errands for others.


However, after saying two sentences, she immediately smiled.


After all, she was quite happy to see Lin Yi.


Lin Yi looked at the way she was shaking from the laughter and confirmed his conclusion.


This Eldest Princess of the Inner Court was indeed heartless.


When they arrived at the inner court, the first thing the emperor said was,”I’m preparing to let you enter the Security Inspection Department.”.


Lin Yi paused.” This is a big deal. Everyone is watching. I’m new here and don’t have any foundation. There’ll be a lot of resistance, right?”


The Safety Inspection Division was obviously a very important department.


If he could enter, it would be a great thing for Lin Yi.


Moreover, as long as he entered, it would be a better layer of protection and disguise for his undercover ident.i.ty.


However, this matter wasn’t something the emperor could decide alone.


” There must be someone within the Safety Inspection Division that I can absolutely trust. This is my bottom line. So, I will push you in no matter what!” the emperor said solemnly.


“Thank you for your trust, Your Majesty. I’ll do anything to repay your kindness!” Lin Yi said seriously.


The emperor’s expression softened a little.” Since I recommended you, I naturally trust your loyalty,” he said in relief.


Actually, he wouldn’t recommend Lin Yi if he had other choices.


After all, he had only met Lin Yi once in private, and their relations.h.i.+p wasn’t stable yet.


Besides, Lin Yi had connections with King Han, King Zhao, and even King Qi. He wasn’t an ideal candidate for a puppet emperor.


But the problem was that the people he could trust really couldn’t show off in such a big scene.


The only one that could be brought out was currently imprisoned in the Heaven Prison.


Lin Yi was his only choice.


“You’re a newcomer from the outside and have never partic.i.p.ated in the internal design of the Hundred Seedlings Plan, so you’re absolutely innocent in this matter,” said the emperor.


” Moreover, you defeated the Great Exile and made a great contribution. This further proves that your stance is absolutely pure.”


“In this regard, you are more qualified than anyone else!”


Lin Yi nodded.


The most important condition to enter the security inspection department was to ensure that one’s innocence was absolute. Lin Yi indeed had an advantage that others couldn’t compare to.


“However, even if the King of Qin agrees to give in on this matter, he will still have to go through the investigation process in the end. You have to be mentally prepared,” the emperor instructed.


“Your Majesty, what’s the process?” Lin Yi asked.


The emperor’s tone was uncertain.” It’s hard to say exactly what they will do. Apart from the normal procedures, they might even use high-level spies from the divine territory to investigate the files.”


“But don’t worry. As long as you stand upright, even if someone deliberately tries to pour dirty water on you, it won’t be that easy.”


Lin Yi’s heart skipped a beat.


He had long known that the Divine Realm and the Inner Court had sent spies to each other, and the emperor’s words were proof.


However, if he could conduct a file investigation in the divine territory, it meant that the level of this spy from the Inner Court was already quite high.


After leaving the inner court, Lin Yi found a place with no one around and entered the new world with his spirit sense.


Then, he would contact the Divine Kingdom on land through the new world.


In this way, under the natural cover of the new world, no one could find any traces of his contact.


He had to report to Guan Zhengxuan about his nomination to the Security Review Division.


The most important thing was that Guan Zhengxuan had to handle the investigation of the files to ensure that nothing went wrong.


Otherwise, if it was found out that this was related to the G.o.ds, it would be a big joke.
