I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon-Chapter 910 - 340: Yu Youhan: Something’s Off, Am I the Victim Again?
"Solve the case?"
Ye Zi'e frowned, her expression doubtful.
How significant must a case be to achieve such rapid promotions in such a short period?
Qilin Pavilion has had no precedent of this nature.
Could it be the invisible hand within the palace exerting its influence?
"Quiet, please."
Luo Huaijin tapped the table, and once the room had quieted down, he spoke up, "I assume everyone has heard of the events that transpired recently, especially regarding Chen Qianhu's promotion. Rumors have been rampant, with some even claiming he's the Commander's illegitimate son—utterly absurd!"
"..."
Chen Mo's lips twitched slightly.
He hadn't expected such a strong reaction within Qilin Pavilion, even giving him a father out of thin air...
"To clarify the facts and correct misconceptions, I have compiled Mr. Chen's achievements for your review," Luo Huaijin said, raising his hand, and a stack of documents appeared and landed in front of everyone.
Ye Zi'e quickly reached out to grab them, flipping through.
The so-called achievements were issued by the Ministry of Personnel, including evaluations and political achievements, crucial for determining an official's eligibility for promotion.
The document before her detailed all the accomplishments of Chen Mo, densely packed over several pages.
Most of this she already knew and skimmed over, her eyes focusing on the highlighted text at the bottom:
[...On the Heavenly Gift Day, during the sacrifice ceremony, Prince Yu's rebel party, in collaboration with the Demon Clan, suddenly caused havoc. The Imperial Army suffered heavy casualties, and the Crown Prince was entrenched in peril... At the time, Chen Mo, Deputy Thousand Households in the Sky Scale Guard, stepped forward, slaying demons and ensuring the Crown Prince's escape from danger...]
[Subsequently, he pursued for thousands of miles, killing the culprits Chu Heng and his conspirators in the eastern wilderness of Tiandu City...]
[Later proceeded to the southern suburbs, demonstrating divine skills, bringing timely rains and saving thousands of civilians...]
[His merits in escorting royalty, bringing down evil, and rescuing the people are remarkable and deserve great reward to encourage loyalty and bravery.]
Ye Zi'e's lips parted slightly, her expression shifting from bewilderment to shock.
Earlier, she heard mentions of "Chu Heng" and "prison break" but hadn't anticipated that the upheaval was orchestrated by the heir of Prince Yu?
Not only did Chen Mo excel in escorting the Crown Prince, quelling the rebellion, and slaying the chief culprit, he even saved the injured civilians of South City... So he single-handedly took all the credit, while others were just sitting idle?
The most critical issue—this guy actually reached the Third Grade!
No wonder he was immediately promoted without waiting for next year's evaluation...
A grandmaster at twenty years old, with such case-handling ability, go on and take the position, who can take it better than you?
The achievements were passed around for everyone to review.
After seeing the contents, there was silence.
They had heard about this earlier but had certain doubts. After all, this person was too young, with such strong connections, it's hard not to form certain associations.
Now with black-and-white evidence, stamped by the Ministry of Personnel, they were naturally convinced.
"Mr. Chen is truly a dragon among men, we are deeply impressed!"
"Since ancient times, heroes emerge in youth, like it or not!"
"Mr. Chen appointing as the Fire Department Thousand Households is truly well-deserved!"
After a brief silence, everyone began to speak up.
Chen Mo naturally returned their courtesy with a modest demeanor.
He understood Luo Huaijin's intention in doing this, intentionally gathering people from the North and South Towns to clear obstacles for him and secure his position.
Since he could get the achievements from the Ministry of Personnel, there must be the influence of Her Majesty the Empress behind it.
Once the issue was cleared, the assembly officially began.
Each department's Thousand Households reported their duties, with the assistants recording and handing them to Shi Jingxuan and Mu Zhen for immediate approval.
Chen Mo sat quietly, listening attentively and observing everyone's expressions.
The Sky Scale Guard was infiltrated by two factions, party struggles intensified, Qilin Pavilion was no exception.
Yun He and Ye Zi'e were steadfast members of the Imperial Consort Faction, often clashing with the Gold and Wood Departments' Thousand Households. They not only obstructed each other in practice but also exchanged barbed words, filled with animosity.
Shi Jingxuan, however, remained calm and composed, evidently accustomed to it.
Meanwhile, the South Town Patrol Department was much more peaceful, primarily responsible for internal discipline and intelligence, firmly controlled by Mu Zhen, making it difficult for others to interfere.
While Chen Mo observed others, they were also surreptitiously assessing him.
The Chen Family was a core member of the Imperial Consort Faction, yet Chen Mo was favored by the Empress, also serving as a Guard General in the palace, his affiliations complex, making it impossible to decipher his stance.
Everyone in Qilin Pavilion was sharp, unwilling to make enemies without reason. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Thus, Chen Mo was temporarily categorized as "someone to recruit and never to offend."
History has repeatedly shown that anyone targeted by this man, be it an imperial official or a royal relative, met a grim fate!
Demotions were the least of their concerns; worse was execution and extermination!
One would have a death wish to provoke this Living Yama...
...
...
Once everyone's reports were concluded, it was already evening, and the assembly was nearly over.
Luo Huaijin looked at Ye Zi'e and said, "Recently, Commander Ye has been pursuing the remnants of the Gu God Sect in the Southern Border, not only killing over a hundred sect members but also tracking down the Sect Hierarch, quite meritorious."
Chen Mo glanced at Ye Zi'e.
Previously, Zi Lianji went to Golden Sun State to capture a fugitive, tracking him all the way to the Southern Border, claiming to have met a mad woman who resorted to violence at the drop of a hat... it must be this Commander Ye.
