Chapter 426: Attending the Imperial Meeting

Ji Wen is also resting in this mansion, Li Fuzi has come to see, with this medical immortal to make a move, it can be said that Ji Wen is no longer in trouble.

However, according to Ji Wen, her body is still very weak, so she has to rest here for a while.

Chu Xian always felt that Ji Wen was deliberate.

Lu Jiang's attack, Chu Xian wrote a detailed report, plus Xuanyue Valley was there, so no one came to inquire carefully, they all thought that Lu Jiang's attack could not succeed, and he was forced to retreat by Xuanyue Valley, and his current whereabouts are unknown.

But only Chu Xian knew that Lu Jiang was finished.

There was a strand of hair on the brunette bracer, which had changed color, and it was no longer pure black, but with a blood.

And this hair, Chu Xian knows, is the body of He Suixin's ghost slave, and it is estimated that it is to kill and devour Lu Jiang, so there will be this kind of change.

At first, it was just a guess, but last night Chu Xian had a dream, and the dream was the process of He Suixin killing Lu Jiang.

Although it was a dream, Chu Xian knew that this was what the black-haired bracers let him do, and the things in the dream should have happened in real life.

In other words, Lu Jiang, like the scene he saw in his dream, was killed and devoured by He Suixin.

Speaking of which, the changes in the black-haired wrist guards during this period of time made Chu Xian a little apprehensive, and he didn't know if it was Mo Lin's divine thoughts to help him do things, but Chu Xian called many times, but he didn't get any response.

Not to mention that the black-haired bracer itself is extremely powerful, let's just say that the ghost slave who refined He Suixin with a single strand of hair actually has such ghostly speed and lethality, if she were to face He Suixin in this ghost slave state, she would definitely not be her opponent.

Although this is a good thing, Chu Xian also knows that He Suixin, a ghost slave, cannot be exposed.

Because it was exposed, he couldn't explain it.

He Suixin was the 'murderer' who assassinated the Thirteen Witch Ancestors, and she was already devoured by the Soul Eater, so she should not exist in the world, but if it was discovered that she had become her own ghost slave, I am afraid that this would not work.

So while the black-haired wrist guards helped Chu Xian, they also brought a lot of trouble to Chu Xian.

Of course, this is not a problem for Chu Xian, as long as she is not used. But in the same way, the credit for killing Lu Jiang will not be obtained, fortunately, Chu Xian did not count on this, Mu Xiu Yulin is not a good thing, the credit for solving the case before is already envied, if the credit is given again, I am afraid that a good thing will also become a bad thing.

Low-key, this is the only rule to save one's life in officialdom.

Compared with these, Chu Xian has one more important thing to do, that is, in this life, he is going to participate in the court meeting for the first time.

In the land of Jingzhou, officials above the fifth grade are eligible to participate in the court meeting, although Chu Xian is still a push official in the Criminal Division, but the official character is enough, so he can participate, and he must participate, after all, there is a limit of at least ten court meetings a month, and it is not okay not to go.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Chu Xian was already wearing his official uniform and rushed to the meeting place, of course, with Kong Qian.

Although Kong Qian has been an official for a long time, this time it is also the first time that the eldest girl has been on the sedan chair, and she actually looks a little nervous.

"Chu Xian, this time I also owe you a blessing, I didn't expect that the above would reform the official system, on the side of the Criminal Division, the upper limit of the official quality of the official has been raised from the previous six grades to the fifth grade, which is a good thing, and there will be more people in the Criminal Division in the future, and those young people will have hope. ”

Kong Qian obviously regarded Chu Xian as a person on the same level as him, completely ignoring the fact that Chu Xian himself was also a young man.

Chu Xian laughed, nodded and said: "Master Kong, don't praise me, I was also used as a gun by Lord Zhongshu, it is estimated that Lord Zhongshu has long planned to reform the official system, but he couldn't find an entry point for a while, this time I just took advantage of our Criminal Division to handle this matter." ”

Kong Qian also nodded again and again: "So, it is not easy to sit in a high position, in my opinion, it is easier to solve the case, black is black, white is white, good and evil are easy to distinguish, where it is like this officialdom, it is much more complicated." ”

Chu Xian also thought so.

Because it was the first time for the two to participate in the court meeting, they came very early.

The court meetings of the Tiantang Holy Dynasty are all held in the Dengtian Hall of the Tang Palace in Jingzhou.

There are a total of three halls in the Tang Palace, this Ascending Heaven Hall is the first hall, and it is also the largest, the most magnificent one, from the bottom to the top, there must be a drop of 30 zhang, the following is the place where ordinary officials stay, according to the official rank, the top is the cloud seat.

Cloud seat, that is, the cloud supported by magic, is high, like a huge cloud pillar, and there is more auspicious beast shape on it, of course, only the first auxiliary pavilion level immortal official can sit on the cloud seat, and the cloud seat is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, the thickest and the highest, naturally the highest level of the first auxiliary pavilion immortal official.

Generally speaking, the Ascending Heaven Hall is extremely magnificent and atmospheric, so the court meetings are held here.

The guards at the outer gate were all immortal guards with advanced cultivation, and Chu Xian and Kong Qian put them in after being inspected and entered the Heavenly Palace, and immediately felt different.

Empty, this is still second, above the head, is the blue sky auspicious clouds, birds fly together, like a paradise.

Chu Xian didn't feel much surprised, because he had been here, but Kong Qian was different, Kong Qian was here for the first time, so this old pusher felt surprised everywhere, and his heart was rippling.

As time went on, the officials attending the court meeting also arrived one after another to greet each other.

Of course, on Chu Xian and Kong Qian's side, there were also many officials who came to greet them, especially to Chu Xian, a 'new talent' in the officialdom, who expressed goodwill.

Everyone knows that Chu Xian can be said to be the youngest official who has stepped into the court meeting in the past few hundred years, and no one can say how far he will go in the future.

Of course, secretly, there is also the sound of singing and declining.

The reason is simple.

That's because Chu Xian is the pusher of the Criminal Division, looking at the past, being a pusher in the Criminal Division, his career has come to an end, which is a well-known thing.

It means that as soon as he becomes the magistrate of the Criminal Division, this career will come to an end, because there is almost no possibility of promotion, this is almost a strange circle, and for thousands of years, no one has been able to break this strange fate.

Therefore, many officials are absolutely reluctant to mention the Criminal Division, unless there is no way, they don't see the children of those officials, even if they go to the government to make an ordinary document, they are not willing to go to the Criminal Division to be a higher official.

The officials are almost here, after all, not every court meeting will gather all the officials above the fifth rank in Jingzhou, even so, there are almost a hundred people gathered at this moment.

On the cloud seat high up over there, several figures appeared.

The immortal official of the Shoufu Pavilion has arrived.

The immortal officials of the Shoufu Pavilion are all at least three ranks, and not all of them can enter, so it is only possible to have a high-powered official position.

Moreover, in the Shoufu Pavilion, they are all immortal officials in the realm of Dao Immortals.

At present, in the first auxiliary pavilion of the Holy Dynasty, there are six Shangshu, Zhongshu Ling, Shangshu Ling, Taiwei, Sikong, Situ, General, Jade General, left and right servants, left and right Taishi, a few important servants, etc., counting, there are almost more than 20 people.

These more than 20 are obviously the immortal officials who hold the most power in the Holy Dynasty.

Of course, even in the Shoufu Pavilion, there are also levels, and the higher level is called 'Immortal Venerable', which is the immortal official who has mastered the five immortal weapons of the Tiantang Holy Dynasty.

The five immortal artifacts are 'Qiankun Mirror', 'Daozu Bell', 'Zhushen Sword', 'Qibao Tiandong Hu', and 'Sealing the Heavenly Seal', which are currently mastered by the five masters of the Shoufu Pavilion Lu Yan, Taiwei, Situ, Sikong and the General.

Basically, this is the current top-to-bottom bureaucratic structure in the Tiantang Holy Dynasty.

Just like other officials, the immortal officials in the Shoufu Pavilion do not always come to attend the court meeting, but every time, at least three or more immortal officials of the Shoufu Pavilion must preside over the court meeting.

This time, the cloud seat was lit up with ten, that is to say, there were ten immortal officials of the Shoufu Pavilion who came this time.

Chu Xian glanced at it, at least Xiao Yu was here.

Chu Xian and Kong Qian are standing at the back, after all, they are only the fifth grade, and the first time they participated in the court meeting, they basically just listened, just watched, and would not give them a chance to speak.

What is discussed at the court meeting is the major affairs of the holy court, and if you interfere with things you don't understand, you will only laugh and be generous.

It's just that just halfway through this court meeting, there was a noise outside, and then the fairy guard hurriedly came in to report.

Apparently something is wrong.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Prince Zun led more than a dozen descendants of the royal family outside, saying that he would come in anyway, and his subordinates didn't dare to block it too much......" Even Xianwei was embarrassed at the moment.

At the court meeting, when the other officials heard this, they all frowned, but they didn't speak, after all, this kind of thing has to be decided by the first assistant cabinet.

On the cloud seat of the Shoufu Pavilion, Yang Zhenqing, the Taishi, actually pretended not to hear it, there was no way, Xiao Yu, the Zhongshu Ling, could only speak.

"The Holy Ancestor has a precept, the heirs of the royal family, do not set foot in the court, stop, do not let them in. Xiao Yu spoke.

But the next moment, a group of people walked in outside, one of them said: "It's late, we have already come in, although the Holy Ancestor said that the descendants of our royal family are not allowed to set foot in the court, but after all, at this time and that time, even the Holy Ancestor, can not know the situation after five thousand years, the Holy Dynasty for five thousand years, how many rules are because they are out of place, and finally they have been changed, and the royal family is not allowed to discuss the government, I think it should be changed." ”

The person who spoke, dressed in a gorgeous royal robe, was tall, and he was actually an extraordinary Dao Immortal.

This is also normal, otherwise if you are an ordinary person, even if you break in, you will not be able to break in.

On the cloud seat, Xiao Yu saw that Yang Zhenqing was silent, and the other immortal officials of the Shoufu Pavilion also didn't know how to deal with it, so he could only speak.

I saw Yang Zhenqing get up, float down under the cloud seat, and said, "What Prince Zun said violates the order of the Holy Ancestor, please don't embarrass me." ”

"Embarrassed?" The prince shook his head: "A few days ago, there were thieves who committed murder in the fairy palace, many guards died, and one of my sons and nephews also died because of this, this matter, your first auxiliary pavilion still can't give us an explanation, let me ask, who is embarrassing whom? Over the years, the first auxiliary pavilion has blocked the royal family from the court, resulting in us being ignorant of the major events of the holy court, if we know, we can also be on guard in advance, and my son and nephew will not die, so our royal family discussed and unanimously decided to ask to participate in the court council from today onwards. Xiao Zhongshu, I don't embarrass you about this matter, today I represent the royal family, and formally submit a request to your Shoufu Pavilion, whether you discuss it behind closed doors, or vote at the court meeting, in short, I will wait here today, waiting for your reply. ”
