Chronicles of Celestial Origins
Chapter 355 Selection Conditions
Tang Ning returned to the cave, preparing to rest for the night before leaving the sect.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, the storage bag on his waist shook, waking him up.
He stood up from the stone bed, took out the formation plate a little, and took the transmission note into his hand, but it was Zhu Xu who came to visit.
Tang Ning was a little surprised. This was the first time Zhu Xu came to visit his cave. She didn't know what happened to him, so she went out of the cave to greet him.
Outside the thick fog, Zhu Xu's tall and straight body stood tall. He escaped from the light and fell in front of him, bowing his head and saying, "Senior Brother Zhu is here, and I haven't come far to greet him."
"I haven't seen Junior Brother Tang for many years. I heard that you are coming back today, and I am afraid that I will leave the mountain gate again tomorrow and be hard to see each other, so I came here to talk to you."
Tang Ning knew that he must have something important to talk about: "Please come in quickly."
The two entered the cave and sat opposite each other. Tang Ning took out a jar of spiritual wine from the storage bag and poured it for them: "The living room is simple and there is no room for entertaining. There is only a little sake. Senior Brother Zhu came so late, he must have Let’s explain the matter!”
Zhu Xu said: "It's nothing serious, I just want to talk to you. Now in the Intelligence Department, we are the only ones who can talk."
After Qin Gang was transferred, the sect sent a new intelligence section inspector named Liu Miao.
Over the years, Tang Ning has never met this new inspector. On the one hand, it is because he has not been in the sect for a long time. On the other hand, it also shows that this person does not like him. Otherwise, no matter what, the new inspector will , I will definitely look for a chance to meet him.
The reason why he doesn't want to see him is simple. The other person is not from Luo Qingshui's family. Zhu Xu's words clearly conveyed the message that the other party and the two were not in the same camp.
Because Qin Gang was eager for change, he was incompatible with Lu Xingxian and was squeezed out.
The price for his defeat was the appointment of an inspector who was not from the Luo family. Maybe the head didn't want to see internal fighting again, so he sent a man from the history department this time. There must have been some wrestling and compromise involved, right? known.
As early as decades ago, Jiang Fan, a disciple of the South China Intelligence Station, illegally monitored South China Chief Peng Yan and was taken to the Ministry for investigation. Tang Ning participated in the joint trial of the three departments. At that time, he was keenly aware that the internal affairs of the Supervision Department were not harmonious, and factional struggles were equally sharp. .
Now it seems that this is indeed the case. Although Luo Qingshui is the master of Xuande Hall, not all departments under Xuande Hall are of the same mind as him, and many of them support Shi Mingsui.
Liu Miao is obviously one of these people.
Qin Gang was Luo Qingshui's nephew and confidant. His failure meant that Luo Qingshui had completely lost control of the Intelligence Department.
Now the deacons and supervisors of the Intelligence Section are all people who support Shi Mingsui. Tang Ning and Zhu Xuren speak softly. It can be said that they have completely lost their right to speak in the Intelligence Section.
"I see that Senior Brother Lu is getting old and his life is short. He will probably abdicate in a few years. Now, only Senior Brother Zhu in the department has reached the late stage of foundation building. If nothing happens, you will take over as deacon. This position should be a natural one, just be patient for a few years!”
Tangning paused and continued, "When I came out of his cave today, he suddenly asked me what I thought of him as a person? What did he mean?"
Zhu Xu smiled coldly and said: "Maybe the deadline is approaching and people are confused! The old fox is always acting coy. Some time ago, Uncle Tong talked to him."
"Oh? What's going on?" Seeing his appearance, Tang Ning knew that this was definitely not a simple question.
Zhu Xu said: "He has been serving as the deacon of this department for a hundred years. According to regulations, he should step down. Master Tong asked him about his wishes, and he said he hoped to do his last contribution to the sect."
It is obvious that Lu Xingxian is unwilling to resign from this position. This may be due to his greed for power, but it is more likely to be considered for the next step. If he resigns at this time, Zhu Xu will most likely take over as deacon. This It's what he doesn't want to see.
He was waiting to buy Lu Guang the last bit of time, hoping that he could break through to the late stage of foundation building. At that time, if he abdicated, Lu Guang could naturally take over as the deacon of the Intelligence Section.
Lu Xingxian's life is short, and it seems that he only has more than ten years to live. Up to now, he still refuses to let go, and he is obsessed with this matter. What is he trying to do?
If it was for the sake of future generations, as far as Tang Ning knew, he had a wife in his early years, but she failed to successfully build the foundation and died early, leaving no heirs. The only disciple has already established his foundation and is not working in the Intelligence Department.
Tang Ning couldn't help but feel sad for him. He was about to die and everything was in vain. He couldn't see through these trivial matters. At this moment, he was still plotting against each other. It was really boring.
Or maybe this is already an obsession in his heart. If everything in the Intelligence Section goes according to his arrangements, it will make him feel proud?
"So, what will be arranged from above?"
Zhu Xu said: "It's hard to say. His life is short, and his term of office has expired. Logically, he should retire. But after all, he has served as a deacon for a hundred years and has contributed a lot to the sect. I think the higher-ups will take care of his emotions and Will. Uncle Shi will definitely support him."
Although the Qingxuan Hall is in charge of the transfer of disciples, the appointment and removal of the deacons of the department need to be jointly decided by the three halls and the three houses. In order to control Wei Xuande's temperament, there is a high probability that he will follow his own wishes, that is, Lu Xingxian will continue to serve as a deacon until His longevity has come to an end, or Lu Guang has been promoted to the late stage of foundation building.
There is a complete process for the selection of department deacons. First of all, they must meet the standards in terms of cultivation. Generally speaking, the number of deacons must reach more than a hundred people, especially those with a law enforcement nature, such as intelligence department, inspection department, and secret security department. The deacons are all monks in the later stages of foundation building.
Secondly, the deacons of each department will be selected from within the department first. Unless there are special circumstances, people who are not familiar with the affairs of the department will not be chosen as deacons.
For example, when Ma Wen, the deacon of the herbal medicine department, died unexpectedly, Fang Liting immediately established a foundation and took over the position of deacon of the department.
Her qualifications may not be sufficient, but she already has the qualifications after building the foundation. In addition, there are no competitors in the Herbal Medicine Department. Following the principle of giving priority to internal promotions, she was successfully promoted to become a deacon.
Only candidates who meet these two conditions can participate in the selection and preparation of deacons, which are submitted at the level of the temple and courtyard where they are located, and then jointly decided by the senior officials of the three temples, the senior officials of the three courtyards and the head.
Zhu Xu continued: "Maybe the sect will listen to the opinions of the department managers this time. Junior Brother Tang, I hope you can say a few more words."
The situation he mentioned is not impossible. After all, Lu Xingxian's life is short. If the opinions of the upper echelons of the sect are sharply divided, the voting will not determine the result. The opinions of the officials below the department will indeed be listened to to decide on Lu Xingxian. To stay in office.
It's not that this kind of thing has never happened, but it's just useless even if the sect listens to the opinions of the department.
The newly appointed inspector Liu Miao will definitely support him in continuing to serve. Together with several other people in the department, the two of them alone are simply not enough.
Tang Ning could only smile bitterly and said, "If the sect really asks me, I will state my opinion."
The two chatted for a while, and then Zhu Xu left.
The next day, Tang Ning left the sect, traveled for a day or two, and returned to the basement of the Qianjun Mountain Intelligence Station.
"Uncle Tang, Immortal Master Tang." Everyone stood up and saluted.
Tang Ning nodded slightly, walked straight into her stone house, pushed the door open, and saw an old man with white hair and beard sitting cross-legged on a futon, it was Du Yuankai.
Du Yuankai opened his eyes, saw him, smiled slightly and said, "Junior brother Tang is back. Is the investigation of the corpse insect host over?"
Tangning then briefly explained the matter.
After Du Yuankai heard that it was actually a Qingyang Sect disciple who had done it, and that he had been promoted to the Golden Core Realm through such strange methods, he was both surprised and envious.
Tang Ning said: "Senior Brother Lu asked me to come back and continue to be in charge of the intelligence station. During this time, I have Senior Brother Laodu."
Du Yuankai smiled and said: "We are all working for the sect, so why don't we work hard?"
"Is there any important news from the Demon Sect recently?"
"The Demon Sect is relatively calm and there are no big moves. However, something happened to the Zhu family."
"Oh? What's wrong?"
"Zhu Mingxuan is seriously injured. There are rumors that he is about to die. According to our internal feedback, Zhu Bochong and others are discussing and planning something day and night. I'm afraid the rumors are true."
"Why was he so seriously injured? Who was injured? Did Ding Jianyang get any information?"
"So far, only Zhu Bochong can see Zhu Mingxuan. Since he was injured, the others have never seen him again, and they don't even know whether he is alive or dead."
If Zhu Mingxuan really dies, then the situation in the Central Plains region will definitely change drastically. Those other families that have been oppressed by the Zhu family for a long time will definitely be ready to take action. No one can say what will happen then.
But one thing is certain: once the Zhu family loses its dominance over the western region of the Central Plains, the many industries under its jurisdiction will not last long.
While the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Du Yuankai said.
Kong Ji pushed the door open, bowed to the two of them, and handed the file in his hand to Tang Ning: "Uncle Tang, Uncle Du, this is the urgent intelligence message just sent from the Zhu family's insider."
What a coincidence. Just when the two of them were talking about the Zhu family, news about the Zhu family came.
Tang Ning took the file and opened it. It was sent by Zhu Maoqing, and it read: The ancestor left seclusion at Chenshi today and met with several uncles in charge of the family.
"What are you writing about, but about Zhu Mingxuan?" Du Yuankai asked
"Zhu Mingxuan is out of isolation. It seems that he won't die for a while. I just don't know if he is holding on or if he is really fine." Tang Ning handed him the file.
Du Yuankai took it, looked at it, and smiled slightly: "It seems that Zhu Mingxuan can't sit still! If this is the case, it means that his injury is really serious."
It was obvious that Zhu Mingxuan came out of seclusion to meet with the Zhu family at this time to calm people's hearts and quell the rumors. This just showed that he was seriously injured, otherwise there would be no need to pay attention to those rumors.
If he is in good health, there is no need to worry about rumors. Those who want to take advantage of the Zhu family can just lure the snake out of the hole and eradicate them.
It was precisely because they were seriously injured that they gained the power of a fox and a tiger, making them afraid to act rashly.
