Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 960 Yan Qing's Sentence

"Senior, I don't know what is the important matter here?" Xuanyang Pavilion, in front of the Luo Family Mansion, a man greeted him and saluted.

"Please inform the Patriarch of your residence for your trouble. Tang Ning, the head of Taixuanzong's Jingyuan Pavilion, is here to visit."

"Senior, wait a moment." The man turned around and disappeared, and after waiting for about a stick of incense, the man came back to the three of them: "Master Zhang, please come in."

"Master Zhang?" Tangning frowned slightly, "Is that a fellow Taoist from your residence?"

"Master Zhang is named Yu, and he is the head of the foreign affairs hall of this mansion."

"Did fellow daoist not inform the Patriarch of your mansion about my visit?"

"Senior, this junior's duty and authority in the mansion is only to pass the news to the head of the headquarters. As for whether the higher-ups have informed the Patriarch of this matter, this junior has no right to ask. The answer that this junior received was that the chief of Changyu invites you to come over."

Tangning glanced at him and said nothing, "Lead the way!"

"Yes." Several people jumped up, and after a while, they came to a hall.

The cultivation family is the same as the Taoism, the internal organization division is strict and orderly, although its structure is slightly different from the three halls, three courtyards, five departments and six departments of the Taoism, but it is essentially the same, and each performs its duties.

The practice family is divided into ten halls, which are Law Enforcement Hall, Teaching Hall, Qinxun Hall, Jinglian Hall, Ziyong Hall, Jiedu Hall, Guard Hall, Fuku Hall, Foreign Affairs Hall, and Internal Affairs Hall.

On top of the ten halls, there are five positions: the chief of the inner government, the chief of the outer government, the chief financial officer, the counselor, and the elder.

The Foreign Affairs Hall, as the name suggests, is the hall responsible for many matters outside the clan.

"Senior Tang, please."

Several people entered the inner room. In the spacious and bright hall, a middle-aged man with beard and cheeks sat on the main seat.

Seeing the three people coming in from the outside, the man got up to greet them, Jishou saluted: "Tang Daoyou, I'm Changyu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Zhang Daoyou, don't take the liberty to bother me." Tangning returned the salute.

"Please sit down."

The two sit separately as guests and hosts.

"Zhang Daoyou, Tang Mou came here to recruit Yan Qing as a disciple for the headquarters. I heard from the people below that he is in the hands of your family. Is it true?" Tangning asked straightforwardly without playing tricks.

"That Yan Qing didn't know good from bad, so he meddled in our house's internal affairs and seriously injured two of our house's monks. This madman is simply lawless. Your lord should give our house an explanation for this matter!"

"So you designed to arrest him. So Yan Qing is really in your hands. I wonder if I can meet him?"

"Fellow Daoist Tang misunderstood, how dare our government detain your sect to recruit disciples privately, we have already sent him to your unit, as for how your ministry punishes it is not up to us, we only ask your sect to severely punish this madman in accordance with regulations only."

Tang Ning said, "Friend Zhang Daoist, I wonder if I can meet Senior Luo Hui?"

"It's really a coincidence that the head of the family is not in the mansion right now, so I'm afraid the trip was wasted."

"Is there no room for turning around this matter? Yan Qing was just confused for a while, and hoped that your mansion would give him this opportunity. As for the two seriously injured monks in your mansion, if you need any compensation, just ask, Tang can do it I will definitely not refuse."

Zhang Yuda gave him a meaningful look: "Fellow Daoist Tang, in order to recruit a monk, you not only visited him personally, but also took good care of him. Could it be that this son is your relative or friend's descendant?"

"To be honest, this Yan Qing is from the same sect in the old days. I was originally a monk of the Qinghai Xingang Qianyi Sect. Because of the invasion of Mubei demons, he joined the Qingzhou Allied Army and was selected into this sect. Yan Qing is also a Qianyi sect. Disciple of Yizong, he defected to me later. Not to mention this relationship, if any of the monks recruited by the team had an accident, I would not sit idly by. The government can give him a chance."

"Tang Daoyou loves the benevolence and righteousness of his subordinates. Zhang admires it very much. However, Yan Qing seriously injured the monks of our family. He violated the laws of the noble family and took the blame. We really can't do anything."

Tangning was silent for a while, then stood up and said, "Okay, since that's the case, I won't bother fellow daoists anymore, so I will leave."

"I'll see you off, Fellow Daoist." After they left the hall, Tangning paused, turned around and asked, "By the way, Fellow Daoist Zhang, I don't know how Xu Yunsheng is doing now, can I see her?"

"I'm really sorry, because she disobeyed her father, she was fined and grounded for three months, during which she was not allowed to meet anyone."

"But she is still recruiting disciples in the headquarters, and your government's decision to detain her privately feels that it is inappropriate."

"Before our mansion picked her up, her father had already submitted an application to your regiment. She is not an official disciple of your sect, but a temporary recruit, so she can leave at any time. And this decision is not made by my mansion." It's what her father asked her to do."

Tangning didn't say anything more, she said her farewell, and the group of people got up and left the room.

……

In Xuantang City, Tianniu Mountain Range, and in front of the majestic cave, Tang Ning fell down.

Not long after, a man with a fair complexion came out to greet them, the two exchanged a few words, entered the inner room together, and divided the guests and hosts into the hall.

The man's name is Yuan Xian, and he is the disciple in charge of the joint interrogation hall.

"Junior Brother Yuan, I have taken the liberty to bother you this time because I really want to ask for something."

"Could it be that Senior Brother Tang came here to recruit disciples from your department named Yan Qing?"

"That's right. I heard that he was detained in the interrogation room of the joint team. I have come to look for you. Junior brother Yuan, please tell me the truth. How far has this matter progressed?"

Yuan Xian smiled: "I have read his interrogation file, and I know that he is from Qinghai Xingang Qianyi Sect, and he has a special relationship with Brother Tang, so I expected that you would come to me. But there is really nothing I can do about it. I have reported the matter to Uncle Sima."

"So fast?" Tangning frowned.

"After the people of the Luo family escorted him here, they kept urging to deal with this person as soon as possible and give them an answer. I couldn't do anything about it."

"What's Uncle Sima's attitude?"

"He has already issued an order, which is punishable by two hundred years of imprisonment for the serious crime of wounding. Now it will be issued to the third brigade for the captain, supervisor and deputy captain of your brigade to sign."

"Two hundred years?" Tangning was taken aback. This was obviously too severe a sentence, and it was revenge for herself.

Last time on Xie Minghua's birthday, he offended the Sima family. Sima Nianzu was on the side at that time. Due to the situation at that time, he didn't reprimand him, but he definitely didn't like it.

Now that Yan Qing is in his hands, he will definitely not be able to please him. With his identity and status, he may not care about recruiting disciples with a mere Golden Core.

But as the saying goes, if you love the house, you will naturally hate the black and the black. Sima Nianzu knew that Yan Qing was his former classmate, which was enough to arouse his disgust in his heart, so the sentence was obviously aggravated.

The man surnamed Yuan nodded and said: "Uncle Sima instructed so, the dossier has been sent out and is about to be sent to your brigade."

"Junior Brother Yuan, I have an unfeeling request, I hope you can forgive me."

"Senior brother Tang, you should know that how to sentence and how to deal with it is not up to me."

Tangning said, "I understand. I just hope that you can temporarily withhold the file and not send it to the third team."

Yan Qing is the recruited disciple of the squad. According to the sect's regulations, his disposal should be decided by the squad, so the signatures of the squad leader, supervisor, and vice-captain are required. This procedure is irreducible.

If Sima Nianzu had any objections to the decision, he would have to wait until the brigade's file was reported to the wing before he could raise it. The instructions he made now were only suggestions for sentencing and punishment.

But in fact, once this proposed sentencing penalty reaches the brigade, it will soon become the result of the brigade's punishment. Needless to say, brigade supervisor He Lian, the brigade captain Xie Minghua has always been on good terms with Sima Nianzu, so he will definitely not refute him face.

As for the vice-captain Yu Qingxiao, first of all, he cannot change the result by himself, and it is impossible for him to fight against Xie Minghua and Sima Nianzu just to recruit disciples.

Once the case is settled, there is really no way to recover.

"This..." Yuan Xian hesitated, "It's against the rules!"

"That's why Junior Brother Yuan needs to be lenient. Uncle Sima probably didn't tell you when you must send it to the brigade! In this way, you should press it first and give me seven days to make plans."

Yuan Xian hesitated for a while: "Okay! Since Senior Brother Tang opened his mouth, for your sake, I will suppress it first. But let's make an agreement. If Uncle Sima asks about this within this period of time, I can't stay any longer, and once the seven days are up, I will distribute it immediately."

"Thank you, Junior Brother Yuan. I want to meet Yan Qing, but I don't know if it is possible."

"It's easy, I'll take you there!"

The two left the cave one after the other, and came to a quaint main hall, where two disciples were sitting cross-legged with their eyes closed for cultivation.

Tang Ning and Yuan Xian came in from the outside, and the two quickly stood up and saluted.

"Where's the imprisoned recruiting disciple in the fifth squad of the third brigade? Take me there."

"Yes." One of them replied, and led the two of them through the main hall to the stone gate of a long corridor.

"Senior Brother Tang, please!"

Tangning pushed the door open and entered. In the simple stone room inside, Yan Qing was leaning against a corner, looking very tired.
