Upon hearing Ai Li's words, a hint of curiosity appeared on Princess Xi's stunning face, yet she maintained her dignity, "Why was he busy the previous two days, but now he has the ti?"
Ever since Xue'er was brought back to the Sanctuary by Huang Shangzong due to the "incident of delivery" a while ago, Ai Li and Yanyan had almost been hanging out with Princess Xi every day, becoming quite familiar with each other.
So they spoke and acted with great ease.
Ai Li, twisting a strand of her single ponytail, began to speak, "Because he was just promoted to the Two States Guardian the previous days. But the Sanctuary only promised him plans, and both Heavenly State and Earth State are still in the Disaster Zone now."
"So, during this period, he's been expanding territories on one hand and building his team on the other."
"Many people have spotted this promotion opportunity, hence his doorstep is about to be worn out."
"He is almost constantly receiving officials wishing to pledge their allegiance to him from morning till night."
"Even late at night, so people co to visit him."
"Finally, today, his team has officially ford, so there are fewer people coming for activities."
Princess Xi herself had experienced similar situations — when she beca a princess. Thus, she slightly nodded her head, agreeing with Ai Li's analysis.
Blocked by Kou Yu from information channels, she now depended almost entirely on Ai Li and Yanyan for information.
So she asked, "Then, how is his team composed now?"
"What changes occurred in Dongye State and New State?"
Upon hearing her question, Ai Li, chewing bubble gum, began to introduce to Princess Xi,
"Now, ah, there have been slight personnel changes in several states."
"Qiu Tu promoted Guan Xiao, the forr Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in Dongye State, his chief steward, to Deputy Speaker, in charge of the Security Bureau (Supernatural Power) system."
"He promoted Jiang Zhenpeng, the first mber of the City Hall of Xinjie City, to Deputy Speaker, responsible for the municipal system."
"He promoted Ning Xin, the loyal supporter of Liu Xiongyuan, and the Investigation Bureau Chief of Eastern City, to Deputy Speaker, responsible for the Investigation Bureau system."
At this point, Ai Li paused and added, "In addition, he also promoted his confidant in Xinjie City, the current Deputy Director of the Xinjie City Investigation Bureau, Chen Feng, up a level to beco Ning Xin's deputy."
"According to others' analyses, this is likely paving the way for Chen Feng."
"As for the other middle managent personnel's frawork, he transferred a batch of people from his base, Xinjie City, to supplent."
"His forr confidants like Tan Huimin, Bai Ru, Eagle, Ah-Tai, Little Liu, mbers of the Dare-to-Die Team, even Song Qing, who least likes working, were all transferred over."
"It's a total mobilization, you could say."
"Plus, with many middle and upper managent from various cities pledging allegiance to him these days, he now has a strong and robust force."
After listening to Ai Li's explanation, Princess Xi slightly nodded her head, her gaze revealing a hint of contemplation.
This is the benefit of having an original team foundation. Once montum builds, one can quickly fill in the heritage and raise the ceiling.
As for whether there would be so people with insufficient capabilities, leading to various problems?
There will be, but they're within an acceptable range.
Moreover... once in certain positions, the gap in capabilities between individuals isn't that vast.
The reason two similarly capable people achieve entirely different things is often simply because one hasn't been in that position and undergone those experiences.
Have you not seen the many civil and military officials around founding emperors, who are from their hotowns, even neighborhood?
Was that hotown really strong enough to produce a founding emperor and a bunch of famous generals and strategists?
Not necessarily.
Most of the ti, it's because, after experiencing battle after battle, event after event, they gradually matured.
And now, the group around Qiu Tu is just like this.
Originally breaking out from the Planning Area and entering the Sanctuary system showed they have certain capabilities.
Then, after several rounds of selection, being chosen by Qiu Tu as confidants further proved there are no fools among them.
Now, following Qiu Tu's rise, they will rapidly gain a lot of experience during the construction in the two states ahead.
Coupled with their good talents, this will likely give rise to a batch of elites.
Thinking of this, Princess Xi slowly ca back to her senses, then continued to ask, "Right, then who is the current Speaker of Dongye State?"
Upon hearing Princess Xi's words, Ai Li replied, "It's temporarily vacant now."
"Old Pang seems to have so different ideas about this position. So he applied to the Sanctuary for it to remain vacant temporarily."
Princess Xi's political acun was indeed high.
Upon hearing Ai Li's words, she was montarily stunned but quickly realized: This is Old Pang's big pancake.
Recently, Qiutu had heard from Ai Li about the high-level eting of the two states, where all 8 deputy speakers sided with Qiu Tu.
Thus, she also knew Old Pang's prestige had plumted, and he was surpassed by Qiu Tu.
Old Pang urgently needed a ans to turn the tide.
And... the vacant Speaker position is the best ans.
"Vacant," which ans anyone can rise.
As the Two States Guardian, Old Pang obviously holds great influence over the Speaker position of Dongye State.
Highly likely, if he agrees, the Sanctuary agrees.
Therefore, all Deputy Speakers who want to beco Speakers of Dongye State will face a choice: continue choosing Qiu Tu or choose Old Pang....
The reason these Deputy Speakers sided with Qiu Tu, wasn't it to bet on a future and a promotion?
