True Immortal of Tianhe

Chapter 599 The government and the public are shocked

"Yes!"

The Taoist soldiers behind him swarmed over and quickly captured all the immortal officials discussing matters inside.

The people here are all high-level immortal officials of Yuanming Mansion, including Chen Cheng, the deputy palace master. At this time, he was detained by the Yuling Taoist soldiers. His face was extremely pale, beads of sweat continued to fall from his forehead, and his whole body looked like Shaking like a pendulum!

He knew very well what Yuan Ming Mansion had done.

Now that the crime is in the hands of Zhao Xun, there is no need to torture him to extract a confession. Just ask these immortal officials for interrogation and it will be easy to come up with a lot of questions.

"I am the head of Yuanming Mansion. You have no right to arrest me. I want to see Lord Baizhou Tongjian Wan!" Qiu Lifeng looked ugly and shouted loudly.

He never expected it.

Yanyulou unexpectedly missed and allowed Zhao Xun to escape.

Now it is indeed a disaster. The other party brought the Xuanjing Division and Zuo Monitoring Station to question the crime. They were so aggressive that they even arrested all the immortal officials in Yuanming Mansion!

"Lord Wan?" Zhao Xun sneered, "Baizhou general judges Wan Song and Sima Jijian controlled the military and political affairs of Baizhou, isolated the state pastors, and protected Baizhou immortal officials to commit crimes. Now they have been arrested by the Xuanjing Division!"

"This, this is impossible!" Qiu Lifeng shouted in disbelief.

These are Tongpan and Sima of Baizhou, who are in charge of the government and military affairs of Baizhou respectively. Lianzhou Mu Gongyang Sheng is just a puppet and has been completely ignored.

The reason why there is a phenomenon of officials protecting each other and nourishing the rot in the whole Baizhou, in the final analysis, it is the connivance of these two people!

"As ordered!" The two of them bowed and handed over their hands, and quickly headed to the teleportation array.

Although Meng Yang was anxious, he still sat down patiently with a respectful expression.

"The rest of the group will arrest all the immortal officials in Yuanming Mansion, large and small, and interrogate them one by one. Anyone involved in the tribute case will be detained and awaiting disposal!"

Xingguang stretched out his big hand and immediately held Qiu Lifeng in his hand. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not escape the shackles of this big hand.

"Master Zhao!" At this time, Deputy Palace Master Meng Yang came to ask for an audience.

Zhao Xun said: "Now that the master of Yuan Ming Mansion and Yi Ying Xian Guan have been arrested and brought to justice, it is up to you to temporarily take charge of the overall situation of Yuan Ming Mansion!"

Behind these two people, there is the presence of the court boss, so they are in trouble like this?

"In the Baizhou Tribute Case, you sought your own death. You dared to act so boldly. Now His Majesty is furious. Not to mention the mere magistrate and Sima, even the State Mu will be taken down!"

"Star-catcher, King Longquan!" Qiu Lifeng's face was ashen.

"Bai Fang, Zhang Shiyuan, you lead a thousand Taoist soldiers to the twelve fairy cities under Yuan Ming Mansion, and capture all the city owners of these fairy cities without any mistakes!" Zhao Xun ordered.

Zhao Xun's Zuo Monitoring Station and Yuling Dao soldiers quickly took over the entire Yuanming Mansion. Under the suppression of the Tao soldiers, there was almost no resistance and it was extremely smooth.

"Take it!"

Zhao Xun said calmly.

He had just learned of the great changes in Yuan Ming Mansion, and couldn't help but feel overjoyed. He impatiently left the mansion and went to see him.

"Mr. Meng, take a seat." Zhao Xun sat in the living room of Yuanming Mansion and pointed to the table and chairs next to him.

Qiu Lifeng's expression changed, and his cultivation in the integration stage exploded. He slapped Zhao Xun with a palm, and quickly flew behind him in an attempt to escape!

However, the next moment, a big hand of starlight appeared.

"I have already reported your matter to the emperor this time. The death penalty can be avoided, but the punishment of living crime cannot be escaped. However, the responsibility for these crimes will have to wait for the court to issue an order in the future. It is not something I can control!"

"Lord Qiu, please come with us and don't make a fearless struggle!"

Seeing Qiu Lifeng being captured, Zhao Xun reached out and waved his hand. Niu Dali and others immediately rushed over, held Qiu Lifeng on the left and right, and slapped a sealing talisman on him, completely imprisoning his cultivation.

Hearing this, Meng Yang was stunned.

Immediately, a look of gratitude and joy appeared on his face, and he stood up and bowed to Zhao Xun: "Thank you, Mr. Zhao. If you hadn't spoken kindly for me in front of Your Majesty, I'm afraid I would have been in jail now. Such a great favor, Unforgettable!"

"If you manage the Yuanming Mansion well, you can repay the imperial court's great kindness!" Zhao Xun took a sip of tea and said, "Baizhou has become really bad these years. Now that Baizhou Tongpan and Sima have been captured, the situation in Baizhou has changed. Changes will occur, and you will have to make some achievements in the future before His Majesty will trust you again!"

"Yes, thank you for your advice!" Meng Yang said gratefully.

Several days passed.

The news finally came out that all the immortal officials in Yuanming Mansion were arrested and Sima, the general judge of Baizhou, was also imprisoned.

In an instant, the Great Zhou Immortal was in a state of excitement.

Most ordinary monks naturally clapped their hands and celebrated. Ordinary people have always had an innate sense of hostility towards corrupt officials. They always cheered and excited when they heard the news that a corrupt official had been sacked.

But above the court, there were more disputes.

Some Immortal Officials of Grade 3 or above said that such a large-scale capture of Baizhou Immortal Officials would affect the stable situation too much, and that the Zuo Monitoring Platform and the Xuanjing Division had too much power.

There are also people who continue to report, hoping that His Majesty can withdraw the Taoist troops and the Supervisory Platform Xuanjing Division from Baizhou.

Even Chief Assistant Lin Yuanzhi and some first-grade immortal officials spoke.

However, no news came out in the imperial palace.

Finally, during a court meeting, Emperor Zhou asked Manager Wang to bring out the evidence that the Yuan Ming Mansion had embezzled tribute, and that Baizhou Tongjian and Sima had protected the Yuan Ming Mansion, and only then did these immortal officials shut up!

"There are actually voices above the imperial court asking me to release the immortal officials of Yuanming Mansion. What is this sign? Is there anyone above the imperial court who is trying to protect Baizhou's rebels?" Emperor Zhou's eyes were cold, and he glanced at To the immortal officials present.

"Your Majesty, calm down!" The officials knelt down in horror.

"Tang Mingze, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was a high official of the imperial court. He collected bribes from Baizhou all the year round and protected the immortal officials of Baizhou. In order to avoid the death penalty for his many years of hard work and merit, he was deprived of his position as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, demoted to a commoner, and never hired. !”

Emperor Zhou said calmly.

With a pop, Tang Mingze, the Minister of Civil Service, was shaking like chaff and knelt on the ground.

"You Zongling of the Zongren Mansion deprived You Zongling of his position and demoted him to be the tombkeeper of the Xiquan Mountain Mausoleum..."

"Secretary of Household Affairs..."

Every time Emperor Zhou read out a name, some immortal officials among the hundreds of officials would tremble and kneel down, but they did not dare to refute or redress their grievances. They knew very well that this had already given them face.

If they had followed Taizu's previous strict laws, all of them would have been punished with death!

The fall of many high-ranking immortal officials in the Great Zhou Immortal Dynasty, including a Youzong Ling and the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, instantly made all the monks in the Great Zhou Dynasty dumbfounded.

After Zhao Xun, who was far away in Baizhou, received the news, he knew it was time to stop.

These days, he led the Zuo Monitoring Station and the Xuanjing Division to continuously interrogate Baizhou Immortal Officials, dig out more evidence and key criminals, and report all these things to Emperor Zhou.

The immortal official who fell from his horse at the court meeting was excavated during this period.

"Come here!" He groaned slightly and spoke.

"Sir!" Bai Fang and Zhang Shiyuan walked in.

"Send an order to escort all the important criminals of the Yuanming Mansion, the Immortal Officials, and bring them to Baizhou City to meet and return to Shenjing together!" Zhao Xun said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" The two of them responded, and Bai Fang asked, "Sir, are you going to close the case?"

Zhao Xun nodded slightly: "That's right, we can't dig any more. Let's go back to Beijing quickly!"
