Long Zhi was utterly astonished.

I haven't done anything in the past two hundred thousand years.

Even if I hadn't done anything in the past 200,000 years, I would have been completely obedient in the previous 200,000 years.

"Your reach is too far; it will bring utter destruction to the Long family."

"Never try to test the heart of a ruler."

"We just need to do our job well and be clear about who gave us everything."

Chapter 651 [Long Zhi Resigns]

Long Qi left.

Long Zhi sat in his study, lost in thought.

Without realizing it.

It was already late at night.

The bright moon in the sky shyly hid behind the clouds.

He picked up the notes he had compiled with a bitter expression, stood up from his seat, left the study, and left the Long residence.

When the Divine Guards appear beside you, do not be afraid, nor resist.

Do your job honestly and diligently; that is the greatest contribution you can make.

If they resist, there will only be one outcome.

death.

It is now late at night, but the palace gates of the imperial palace remain open.

And the Imperial Guards patrolled there at all times.

In this day and age, imperial palaces are no longer in a state where they close at a certain point.

It symbolizes that the gates of the Star Empire are always open to the world.

"It's not working hours now, Mr. Long, isn't it too early?"

The Imperial Guard squad leader looked at Long Zhi with a scrutinizing gaze as he arrived.

Authentication is not a problem.

But he also needed to know the other party's purpose in entering the imperial palace.

If something happens, he, as the gatekeeper, won't be able to escape responsibility.

"I will report the situation to His Majesty."

Long Zhi looked at the Imperial Guard squad leader in front of him and said with a smile.

The Imperial Guard represents the most elite force in the Star Empire.

Both represent the emperor's face.

"Reporting to His Majesty? Hmm, you may go in!"

Upon hearing this, the Imperial Guard squad leader gave him a deep look and said.

Should I report to His Majesty at this time?

Are you planning to wait outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation all night?

But he didn't waste any words.

This allowed Long Zhi to enter the Imperial Palace.

Entering the palace, there was a long corridor.

At the end of the corridor, there was another palace.

The defenses there were even more stringent than those at the first palace gate.

However, after the system recognized Long Zhi's identity, the masked Imperial Guards did not stop him.

Their gazes fell upon Long Zhi as he entered the first palace gate, and remained there until he passed through the second palace gate.

After entering the second palace gate, there was the imperial palace's exceptionally large training ground.

It covers a vast area, and is exceptionally large and expansive.

After entering the training ground, he didn't look around much and went straight to the Hall of Mental Cultivation where His Majesty rested.

However, the Imperial Guards guarding the Hall of Mental Cultivation informed them that His Majesty had not yet returned.

He then went to the Imperial Study.

The Imperial Guards in the Imperial Study also told him that His Majesty had already left.

As luck would have it, they ran into Jun Wushang, the deputy commander who was leading a patrol.

"Long Zhian, what brings you to the Imperial Palace at this hour?"

Jun Wushang scrutinized Long Zhi before him.

During this time, you should be resting at home, not at the Imperial Palace.

"This official requests an audience with His Majesty. Please inform me, Deputy Commander Jun."

"That's what Long Zhi said."

"His Majesty is in the Imperial Garden."

"Thank you for informing me, Vice Commander Jun."

……

The Imperial Garden.

gazebo.

The Prince of Zhennan and Emperor Yang Yu sat in a pavilion in the Imperial Garden, the atmosphere quite eerie.

Neither of the two figures standing at the pinnacle of the Star Empire uttered a single word.

"His Majesty……"

Prince Yang Lin of Zhennan could no longer hold back.

He didn't know why His Majesty had summoned him to the Imperial Garden to sit here with him.

"Uncle, look at the night sky, isn't that bright moon, like something out of a fairyland, beautiful?"

Yang Yu looked up at the bright moon atop the sky.

In this regard.

Prince Yang Lin of Zhennan's eyes flickered, not understanding what His Majesty wanted to express, and he himself could not guess.

Looking at the Prince of Zhennan, Yang Yu had a faint smile on his lips and said nothing.

"Your Majesty, Minister of Public Security Long Zhi requests an audience."

Just then.

Secretary-General Gu Qianran hurriedly walked in from outside the Imperial Garden.

"please."

"promise."

Secretary-General Gu Qianran left.

moment.

The figure of Minister of Public Security, Long Zhi, appeared in the sight of the Emperor and Prince Yang Lin of Zhennan.

Yang Lin's eyes flickered upon seeing Long Zhi's arrival.

Could it be that His Majesty intends for me to wait here for Long Zhi?

"Your subject Longzhi greets Your Majesty and the former Prince."

Long Zhi approached and immediately bowed to the Emperor and the Prince of Zhennan.

He didn't expect it.

Even Yang Lin, the Prince of Zhennan, is here.

"What brings you here, my dear minister?"

Yang Yu looked at Long Zhi in front of him.

Long Zhi, ignoring the emperor's other words, dared not straighten up and said, "Your Majesty, I am old and frail and unable to perform the duties of Minister of Public Security. Therefore, I have come to request my resignation."

"Old age and declining health?"

"My dear minister, are you joking with me?"

Yang Yu's face gradually turned serious as he looked sternly at Long Zhi, the Minister of Public Security.

Such an absurd reason would be laughable if it were told to others.

"Your Majesty, it is truly my fault that I am not capable enough to serve as Minister of Public Security. I beg Your Majesty's permission."

"That's what Long Zhi said."

"My dear minister, have I failed you?"

"Your Majesty has not disappointed me. It is only after much consideration that I have decided that I am not capable enough to occupy the position of an important minister of the empire. I humbly request Your Majesty's permission."

Long Zhi insisted.

Instantly.

Yang Yu remained silent, simply gazing at Long Zhi.

He felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at by the emperor.

Even Yang Lin, the Prince of Zhennan, who was standing nearby, was stunned by Long Zhi's words.

Is Xiaolong really that ruthless?
