According to the laws of the Beichen Empire, the Special Security Bureau is only responsible to the emperor and is directly under the emperor.
In the event of a change in imperial power, they must remain dormant until the new emperor ascends the throne.
This law is actually intended to limit the power of the Special Security Bureau to prevent them from doing whatever they want in the absence of the emperor.
Queen Li Fengen did not expect that the Chief Inspector would use this regulation to fool her!
Her anger deepened, and her cheeks became noticeably redder, as if she had put on rouge.
She took a deep breath and said, "Chief Inspector Huo, I'll give you one day to think about your response."
Huo Yushen's cold face showed no sign of compromise, and he said concisely: "No, it won't change."
This means that no matter how many days are given, his answer will not change.
Queen Li Fengen looked at him deeply and thought, if you don't accept my toast, you will be punished.
When her daughter ascends the throne, the first person to be replaced will be the Chief Inspector of the Special Security Bureau!
There is no need for the Chief Inspector of the Special Security Bureau who is not loyal to them, mother and daughter!
Queen Lee Bong-eun looked at Lee Hyung-chang, the Speaker of the Senate, again.
Li Hengchang sat opposite the general commander Quan Juntai.
He is also the elder of their Li family.
Queen Lee Bong-eun looked at Lee Heung-chang inquiringly.
Li Hengchang looked embarrassed and sighed, "Queen, we, the Senate, can help you issue a missing person notice throughout the empire..."
Queen Li Fengen: "!!!"
"What use is a missing person notice?!" she couldn't help but retort.
Li Hengchang smiled bitterly and said, "We in the Senate don't have the manpower to begin with. We can search the entire empire..."
There are only a few hundred of them, and they usually just draft laws, raise their hands and cast votes in the Senate.
Without the Senate, many of them would be unable to move forward!
Queen Li Fengen suppressed the anger that was about to burst out of her heart, and finally looked at the senior military officials: "Tell me, then you can at least help?"
"The Beichen Empire has so many soldiers. If you send even one-tenth of them, you can search the entire empire!"
She looked at the five high-ranking military officials with hope.
In fact, this is the department she really relies on.
She said so much before just for this last step.
Unexpectedly, the Chief of the Military General Staff, Rong Tui Di, simply said, "Empress, it's not that our military won't help you, but the pressure from the Zerg army we're currently facing is quite great!"
"Although only the Fifth Interstellar Fleet is currently stationed at the front lines, the rest of our interstellar fleets are also on high alert, ready to rush to the front lines at any time."
"The ground forces on each planet are also at level one combat readiness."
"We simply can't spare the manpower to search for your little princess who has been missing for twenty years."
Rong Tui Di came from the Rong family, the first of the four marquises, and was a relative of Empress Li Fengen.
Queen Li Fengen's mother, Rong Chunqiu, is the younger sister of the current Marquis of the Rong family and the cousin of Rong Tui Di.
But even with such a close relationship, Rong Tui Di did not say that he would give Queen Li Fengen more help...
Queen Li Fengen had never expected that these people would turn against the emperor before his body was even cold!
As expected, in this empire, being the emperor is the most effective thing.
The queen, princess, and prince are all meaningless!
Empress Li Feng'en slammed the table and stood up, saying sternly, "I am very disappointed in you!"
"Is this how you treat your future crown prince?!"
"How dare you not take me and the future crown prince seriously?!"
Queen Li Fengen's constant calls for the crown prince finally made some people unable to bear it anymore.
The chief minister of the cabinet, Quan Juntai, looked several times at the Minister of Justice who came from the Li family, but the man just lowered his head and did not dare to look anyone in the eye.
He turned his gaze to the Speaker of the Senate, Li Hengchang, and said calmly, "Didn't the special group of the Senate's Legal Committee recently pass a constitutional amendment?"
Li Hengchang's heart skipped a beat and he looked up suddenly at Quan Juntai's half-smile.
He thought for a moment and said, "Although that law has been passed by the Senate's special legal committee, it still needs the Emperor's seal to become law."
Quan Juntai bowed slightly and said, "The day before His Majesty passed away, he had already used the seal and sent it to the Ministry of Justice for archiving."
"That law, the constitutional amendment concerning inheritance rights, officially came into effect eleven days ago."
"And it can be traced back to the past thirty years."
When he said this, not only were the people in the entire hall stunned, but even the members of the Royal Television Station who were setting up cameras nearby and preparing to make a summary report were also stunned.
However, they reacted immediately.
This is unprecedented big news!
And it's exclusive news!
It is impossible for those self-media and new media outside to know.
They can only forward royal-related news from their royal news agency.
Judging from the expressions of the bigwigs present at the meeting, only the Chief Cabinet Officer and the Minister of Justice knew the truth!
The Minister of Justice then smiled wryly and nodded, saying, "Indeed."
"The constitutional amendment bill, sealed with His Majesty's imperial seal, was delivered to our Ministry of Justice and entered into the system the day before His Majesty was assassinated."
"So, this law officially came into effect eleven days ago."
Queen Li Fengen felt dizzy in front of her eyes.
She clutched the edge of her skirt tightly, and the pointed nails she had just done dug into her palms. The stinging pain allowed her to calm herself down and not lose her composure in front of these truly important officials of the empire.
