Daxuanti criminal officer

Chapter 277
"Thank you Queen Mother Long!"

He said Xie En in his mouth, but his head was in a daze.

Daxuan mentions the criminal officer...

What kind of official position is this?
Xu Zun knew that Chen Taiji was the censor of criminal cases of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, referred to as the Criminal Officer of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

But... how to explain the addition of the word "Daxuan" in front of it?
"Hehehe..." Seeing Xu Zun's doubts, Empress Dowager Lin said happily, "Xu Zun, this Daxuan Ti criminal officer is independent from the Sanfa Division, the Neiwei Palace and the Shenhun Division.

"This is... the position tailored for you by this palace. It is a fourth-rank salary, which is at the same level as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, the leader of the Neiwei Pavilion, and the case division of the Shenhun Division.

"The God Detective Department specializes in dealing with Jianghu affairs and apprehending important criminals. And your duty..." said Queen Mother Lin, "It is to investigate difficult and miscellaneous cases for the Palace!"

As she spoke, the Empress Dowager motioned to a young eunuch beside her, and the little eunuch quickly handed a brocade box to Xu Zun.

After the brocade box was opened, there was a delicate white token inside.

"This is the Lily Order from the Palace," said the Queen Mother. "It is in your hands today. If there is another emergency, you can use this order to request the Sanfa Division, the Internal Guard Office, and the Shenhun Division to assist you in the joint investigation. , the other three provinces, six ministries, nine monasteries and five prisons must also cooperate with you, otherwise it will be a crime of disrespect!"

Oh……

As soon as this remark came out, the whole hall was shocked, and the ministers were all dumbfounded, looking at Xu Zun in amazement.

Being a fourth-rank official is nothing, but this lily token is very powerful!
Generally, only the guards can get it, not even the emperor's relatives.

As far as people know, only Lin Chaofeng, the head of the internal guards, owns one piece.

"With this token," the Empress Dowager said again, "you can come to the palace to see me at any time and report the case in time."

"Thank you Queen Mother!" Xu Zun hurriedly kowtowed.

At this moment, Xu Zun was indescribably excited. He only thought that his best result was for his son to inherit his father's career and succeed him as Dali Temple Minister.

Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager specially set up a Daxuan Ti judge for herself!

but……

While excited, Xu Zun also felt great pressure.

He knew very well in his heart that the reason why the empress dowager created a position for herself was naturally useful.

Maybe, she needs to continue to investigate the Xuanmen Tianzun by herself, or maybe... to track down the iron coffin...

"All the lovers don't know something," the queen mother said to the ministers, "Xu Zun is the son of Xu Changlin, the former Minister of Dali Temple!"

Oh……

All the ministers suddenly realized, and they all commented: "It turns out that he is Chang Linqing's son, no wonder he is so smart..."

"Actually," the Queen Mother said again, "Xu Aiqing has already made her mark and has made outstanding achievements repeatedly. The case of the fake county magistrate in Xinye County, the case of the female corpse in monk clothes in Shangyuan City, and the case of the evil ghost in Yonghui were all solved by Xu Zun!
"Not only did he thwart the schemes of Changping Marquis Lu Jinlong and others, but he also captured Yonghui's Xuanmen Daoist Ye Hanchen alive!

"And this assassination incident," the queen mother praised, "if Xu Zun hadn't been quick-witted and quick-responsive, I'm afraid my life will be over, and I will be powerless!"

Oh……

When the queen mother said this, all the officials looked at Xu Zun with admiration and nodded their heads in praise.

Xu Zun knew in his heart that the reason why the empress dowager praised him was to establish the image of Daxuan as a criminal officer in front of all the officials as soon as possible.

He also knew that the queen mother was also suspected of dumping the pot.

From today onwards, everyone knows that Taoism's Heavenly Tribulation plan was thwarted by him, and he will definitely become the main target of Taoism's rebellious party in the future.

However, after receiving such high praise, Xu Zun still felt flattered in his heart, after all, his previous hard work was not in vain.

Even though this Daxuan Ti criminal officer is not as lucrative as Dali Siqing, but as a newcomer, he is already satisfied with being a fourth-rank official.

Who would have imagined that a few months ago, he was just a small county captain!

"Xu Zun, as for the setting up of Daxuan's punishment office and personnel arrangements," the queen mother said again, "General Manager Cai will arrange it later!"

"Yes!" Xu Zun thanked again.

After Xu Zun, there will be rewards.

The next one to receive the reward was Dongfang Enchanting from the God Detective Division.

Although Dongfang Yaoluo did not participate in the rescue, she still played an important role in this case, so she was promoted to a higher level and her salary was doubled.

Next, what Xu Zun didn't expect was that the Queen Mother actually named and rewarded Ku Niang!Feng Kuniang is the general of the Qilin Guard, the first-class bodyguard!Rewarding the Zhenguo Excalibur, a thousand taels of gold, two carts of silk and satin, a mansion, ten maidservants, ten servants...

"Xu Aiqing," Empress Dowager Lin explained, "I know that your friend doesn't like fame and fame, but this palace has clear rewards and punishments, and those who have merit must receive rewards and seals!
"However, you don't have to worry, she can be famous without a job, just let her continue to follow you to handle the case!"

"Oh, the Empress Dowager is really considerate," Xu Zun hurriedly thanked, "I am so grateful for the humble job!"

"You're still talking about a humble job," Cai Kun reminded from the side, "It's time to call me a humble minister!"

"Oh... that's right..." Only then did Xu Zun realize that he was already a high official.

Afterwards, according to the edict, the queen mother awarded Chen Taiji, Tie Jing and others.

The second is the personnel who have made great contributions to this incident, such as the commander of the internal guards, A Xiuzai, Hou Zhen and others, the arresters of the God Detective Department, and the guards of the Imperial Army who have made great contributions to saving them.

In the end, the Empress Dowager did not forget those who died heroically in this battle, and they all rewarded them with great rewards as compensation...

Afterwards, Cai Kun, the newly-appointed head of the internal guards, succinctly told the ministers about the assassination.

Only then did the ministers understand what happened, and they were naturally quite frightened.

Next, the Empress Dowager made a summary of the incident and warned the ministers to abide by their duties and not to make mistakes again.

Finally, this is the beginning of the early court practice. The ministers report the affairs of the various ministries, and the Queen Mother will decide one by one.

Since large-scale incidents occurred one after another in the holy capital, there were a lot of affairs that needed to be dealt with.

Unexpectedly, the Empress Dowager did not feel tired in the slightest. No matter how big or small, she discussed and decided with the officials.

It was not until noon that the court finally dispersed.

Xu Zun couldn't bear it for a long time, he didn't expect that there is no toilet in this hall, and there is no place to solve his internal emergency.

After finally getting to Sanchao, he was about to hurry down to the palace for convenience.

Unexpectedly, the little eunuch came to Xu Zun and said in a low voice: "Please wait for Xu Tixing, the Queen Mother invites you to go to the inner hall to talk!"

"Ah?" Xu Zun gritted his teeth and asked reluctantly, "My little brother, where is there a toilet?"

……

After half a stick of incense, Xu Zun finally found a convenient place in the side hall of the inner hall.

After solving the domestic needs, hurry to the inner hall to have an audience.

The queen mother was already waiting there, so Xu Zun hurriedly greeted her.

"Xu Aiqing," Empress Dowager Lin sat upright in the curtain, still maintaining her mystery and majesty, "How do you feel about this canonization?"

Xu Zun replied without thinking: "It's like a dream!"

"I didn't ask this," Empress Dowager Lin asked straight to the point, "I have made it clear just now that Daxuan appointed a criminal officer to handle difficult and miscellaneous cases for the palace.

"Now, I happen to have three urgent cases that need you to deal with," Empress Dowager Lin looked at Xu Zun quietly and asked, "I don't know, which one do you want to handle first!!?"
