Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 682 Situation
According to the content of the plan formulated with Lei Luo, Guanghui has uttered a series of lies at this moment, and few officials below believe them. After all, no one is a fool. Why did those officials not launch a rebellion before? Will it be activated after the leaf ninja arrives?
What's more, Konoha had a lot of conflicts with the daimyo due to policy issues before, and Hokage even arrived in the capital in person and appeared at today's court meeting. What this means is simply obvious.

Hara Daimyo is probably either dead or under house arrest, and Mitsue is definitely a puppet supported by Hokage, but Hokage did not use ninja methods to control her, so as not to fall into the trap.

There were a total of 32 officials present, and the previous court meeting had at least 50 people, so the officials who disappeared probably were purged by Guanghui and Lei Luo. This is the truth.

In other words, it was Hokage who launched the rebellion, and Mitsue was an accomplice. This pair of men and women worked together, and now they are even more brazen in the court meeting, pouring dirty water on the original daimyo and the dead officials. It is simply not too shameless.

only……

Since these people present were not loyal to the original daimyo, no one spoke out to reprimand Guanghui at this moment. After all, the situation is very clear:

Guanghui occupies the orthodox status, Lei Luo possesses absolute force, the combination of these two has the ability to clear out all opponents in a legitimate manner, talking nonsense at this time is undoubtedly following in the footsteps of those who died yesterday.

After figuring this out, all the officials of the Fire Nation looked at their hearts and minds. Except for the slight sound of breathing, there was no movement in the hall, which could be said to be audible.

However, the Chaohui will definitely not be able to remain peaceful forever. After thinking for a while, Chida Yu wanted to ask a few more questions to the new ruler of the Kingdom of Fire. Unexpectedly, at this time, another person spoke:

"Master Guanghui, I would like to ask, is the role of this council and the cabinet to separate the power that originally belonged to the daimyo, so that the status of officials such as me can be further improved?"

The person who spoke was over fifty years old, with a slightly bulky body wrapped in a black and luxurious court dress. This person was named Fukuyama Ryukyu, and he was in the same position as Yuu Chida. He was responsible for the appointment and removal of low-level officials and the distribution of salaries. A great noble from the Fire Nation.

Fukuyama Ryukyu did not pay attention to yesterday's coup d'état. His focus at the moment was obviously on the two novel terms that Guanghui proposed at the beginning. His keen political sense told him that this might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It has to be said that there were not a few people who thought of being together with Fukuyama Ryukyu. The officials seemed to realize something, and raised their heads in unison, looking at Guanghui who was sitting on the high platform.

Noticing the look of anticipation amidst doubts below, Guanghui said that he was not too clear about it, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and aim at Lei Luo again.

Seeing that Guanghui was looking sideways at him frequently, not to be too obvious, Lei Luo sighed in his heart, took a step forward and said in a loud voice:

"Ministers, you should have heard of Konoha's new policy. My idea, the idea of ​​the new daimyo, is to expand Konoha's new policy to the whole country."

"For this reason, it is necessary to change the political structure of the Nation of Fire, revise the constitution, and form a cabinet. You will take the lead, combine with the big businessmen of the Nation of Fire, and discuss the future direction of the Nation of Fire in the parliament."

"This is a change that can make our country of fire grow stronger. The three powers of legislation, judiciary, and administration are no longer owned by the daimyo, but shared by everyone."

Lei Luo's words resounded in the hall like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. Dozens of Fire Nation officials looked at each other and were speechless for a while. Obviously, the information they heard was too shocking and too...unbelievable .

It wasn't until 10 minutes passed that someone realized it. An official from the Fire Nation raised his head. It was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. On Lei Luo:
"Your Excellency Hokage, can I understand this as Konoha preparing to officially intervene in the internal affairs of the Fire Land?"

The official who spoke was named Mamoru Kageyama, and he was nominally in charge of managing all the armed forces in the Kingdom of Fire. However, since the generals held real power, Konoha was even close to a semi-independent state, so what he was in charge of was more about criminal law, etc.

At this moment, Mamoru Kageyama suddenly asked this question. On the surface, it seemed to be an attack on Lei Luo, but in fact, it was full of some inexplicable deep meaning. If he insisted on describing it, Lei Luo felt that he seemed to be looking forward to it. ?
"You can understand it this way. However, Konoha will not interfere too much with the formation of the parliament and the cabinet. Except for the implementation of a few key projects, I neither want to nor can I manage other things."

Lei Luo nodded first and then shook his head, trying to express his intention clearly in the process. He looked at the pair of thoughtful eyes below, thought for a while, and added seriously:
"The existence of the cabinet is the transformation of Fire Nation's government affairs from loose to centralized, from one-word decision by the daimyo to coordinated processing, and from low efficiency to high efficiency administrative organization."

"And the existence of the parliament determines the revision of the Constitution of the Land of Fire, which of you present is eligible to enter the cabinet, and...determines the direction of our Konoha's future actions."

Having an opportunity does not mean that you will definitely be able to enter this so-called parliament and cabinet, and enter this seemingly core department of the new government. The officials heard the subtext in Lei Luo's words, and after only a few seconds of silence, someone spoke , is Yuu Chida:
"See my lord."

The old man first bowed deeply to Guanghui, then raised his head and stared at Lei Luo seriously. When the eyes met, some invisible information had been transmitted, and he heard the old bureaucrat say:
"Your Excellency Hokage, what are the requirements for joining the council?"

The cabinet only deals with administrative issues, which is not much different from what the Fire Nation officials are doing now, but the parliament is completely different.

This organization can actually legislate, can completely replace the power of the daimyo, and even have the opportunity to drive Konoha ninjas including Lei Luo to do things, this attraction is too great.

As an old man with a long history of officialdom, Chida Yu naturally would not fail to understand the current situation. He took the lead in acknowledging Guanghui's daimyo status for what reason... It is almost self-evident.

Looking at Yuu Chida for a moment, Lei Luo nodded slowly and unobtrusively. He did not answer this question clearly, but raised his head and said loudly to everyone:
"Members of the parliament, referred to as members, each member has the qualifications to discuss national affairs and decide the administrative line of the cabinet, and the candidates for the members..."

Looking sideways at Kei, seeing that the other party was also staring at him intently, Lei Luo paused for a moment, and directly gave a conclusion: "It will be decided by the discussion between Daimyo and Konoha."
