Liu Zongsen glanced at the crowd, and with a flicker in his eyes, he said:
"I think, Mr. Yang Tianpeng is the most suitable person."
"As a special envoy of the Punishment Hall, he already wields great power and has prestige, making him the perfect candidate for this position."
Yang Tianpeng was the Liu Family's stalwart supporter, and his appointment would naturally benefit the Liu Family.
However, before anyone could respond, Yang Tianpeng gestured with a wave of his hand.
"I'm not fit for it. I'm under close watch by Qi Guochang, and if I take this seat, I'm afraid I'll be hindered by him at every turn."
Upon hearing Yang Tianpeng's words, everyone felt a shiver in their hearts.
Indeed.
Behind Zhou Yu was Qi Guochang, and whoever took this position would have to go against him.
It was not a seat just anybody could fill.
If things went poorly, it could very well mean the ruin of one's own family.
With this thought in mind, everyone fell into silence.
