In the majestic and majestic cave in the Tianniu Mountains, Hao Jianren sat cross-legged on the futon and opened his eyes from meditation: "Come in."

The heavy stone door was pushed open, and a man bowed and saluted: "Master, uncle Xu Mengyuan is outside asking for an audience."

"Invite him!"

"Yes." The man left in response. Not long after, Xu Mengyuan came in from the outside and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master Hao. My master ordered me to come and ask you to come and have a brief introduction."

Hao Jianren nodded, followed him out of the room without asking any questions, and came to Fang Dasheng Cave Mansion.

In the spacious and bright hall, two men were smiling and talking. Hao Jianren pushed the door in and was slightly startled when he saw the man sitting below. Then he stepped forward with a smile and said: "Senior Brother Bai, it's been a long time. "

……………

The sun was shining brightly, there were no clouds in the sky, Huagan Mountain, in front of the light curtain, several rays of light shot out, revealing the figures of Chen Xiaofan, Gao Yuan, Yan Qing and his party.

Chen Xiaofan flipped his hand and handed the talisman in. After a while, the light curtain melted into a gap, and a figure flashed out, revealing the figure of a dark-skinned man. He looked at the three of them and asked, "What do you want, fellow Taoists?"

"The three of you have come all the way from Xianlan County. May I ask if Junior Sister Gu Yuanya is in your department? Can you please come out and see her?"

"Gu Daoyou does serve in this department. Who are you?"

"Fan Tong reported it and told Gao Yuan, Chen Xiaofan and Yan Qing, disciples of the Qian Yizong, that they had something important to see her."

"Just wait." The man replied and turned around and entered the inner room.

The three of them waited for about a quarter of an hour, and the light curtain in front of them melted again, and Gu Yuanya came out, her bright eyes swept over the three of them, two shallow dimples appeared on her face, and she said: "Senior Brother Chen, We haven’t seen each other for so many years, and I didn’t expect to meet here today.”

Chen Xiaofan bowed his head and returned the greeting: "Junior Sister Gu, it's been a long time."

"These two are junior brothers Gao Yuan and Yan Qing! I heard the master mention it, why are you here today? Have you all met the master?"

When the three of them heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Chen Xiaofan frowned and said, "Junior sister Gu, don't you still know?"

"Know what?"

"We came to you specifically about Uncle Tang. Uncle Tang was arrested and detained by Taixuanzong for committing the crime of killing one of his monks."

"What?" Gu Yuanya's expression changed drastically.

"Junior Sister Gu, don't worry too much. Everything is still unknown now. We are here to find you to discuss a countermeasure together.

"Junior Sister Gu, Junior Sister Gu?" Chen Xiaofan saw her standing there in a daze, her eyes scattered and without focus.

"I think this matter needs to be dealt with in the long run..." Gao Yuan said. Before he could finish speaking, Gu Yuanya suddenly flashed and turned into a ray of light and sped away.

The three of them looked at each other and hurried to follow.

…………

In front of Hao Jianren's cave, a ray of light fell, and a man's figure appeared. It was the first brigade inspector He Lian. He turned his hand and handed the talisman into the thick fog.

Soon, the thick fog rolled, and a man flashed out from inside, bowed and saluted: "Congratulations, Uncle Master, Uncle Master, please come in."

The two of them entered the inner room and came to the main room. He Lian came forward and bowed and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master."

"You're here, sit down!"

"Thank you, Uncle Master." He Lian took his seat as instructed and said, "I wonder what Uncle Master has to do with calling the disciples here?"

"You know the conclusion of the joint review team's investigation of Tangning's case, right?"

"Yes, disciple heard about it."

"Now some people in the alliance say that Fan Zheng used coercion to induce the monks of the fifth team to confess. They even pointed the finger at you, saying that he was assigned by you. I want to tell the truth. Is this true?"

"There is absolutely no such thing. Disciple just asked Fan Zheng to investigate the case seriously. Fan Zheng did not use any coercion. All the signatures and pledges were signed voluntarily." He Lian immediately denied: "As for the details of the trial, disciple

I haven’t asked about it. Everyone’s way of hearing cases is different. I think this is understandable. If someone wants to use this to attack someone, no matter who they are, I am willing to argue with him in court.”

Hao Jianren waved his hand: "It's not to this extent. Even if someone really plans to do something, I won't let them succeed. You can just do your thing without worrying about the rumors in the outside world."

"Thank you, uncle."

"What do you think of the final conclusion of the joint review team?"

He Lian muttered: "Although it cannot be said that the conclusions of the alliance and the previous investigation conclusions of the brigade are completely opposite, there are still considerable differences. I think there must be something wrong here. I sincerely request to review it again and let the disciple join the review team.

Hear the case."

"When you submitted the investigation file before, I argued with Senior Brother Fang Dasheng, hoping that Tang Ning could be brought to justice. When the joint review report of the file was submitted again, I still argued hard. You know, Tang Ning is

Senior Brother Fang Dasheng single-handedly recommended him. I am trying to punish him, but I am also under a lot of pressure. However, the trend has changed recently. There are rumors in the team that this Lin Quan has a close relationship with you, saying that you are trying to punish Tang Ning.

It's a public weapon for private use, but it's actually for personal enmity."

He Lian said: "Uncle Mingjian, my disciples do have some connections with Lin Quan. The entire sect, from Qingwu Camp to each team, has no relevant background behind them. If we only use this to judge public and private matters, I'm afraid no one will

It can be said cleanly. It is an indisputable fact that Tang Ning committed a crime and killed his subordinates to recruit disciples. The disciples detained him and ordered people to try the case. They acted in accordance with the sect's laws and regulations, which is completely reasonable and legal."

"Yeah." Hao Jianren nodded and said: "You are right, and I responded in the same way, but there have been so many rumors recently, and if the trouble continues, something may be spread. It will really become a big deal, against the alliance against your brigade.

, it’s even harmful to you and me. After all, it’s not a glorious thing, so I think it’s time to end this matter.”

"The investigation conclusion of the review team cannot be changed. The evidence they provided is very sufficient. It is impossible for the alliance to conduct a re-examination. Senior Brother Fang Dasheng proposed to fine Tangning for three years and confine herself for three months in the name of the alliance. The decision is finalized.

Then report it to the column."

"I originally disagreed and insisted on removing him from his post. But now that there are more and more rumors, they have even reached the ears of the senior management of the column. A few days ago, a senior fellow from the regiment directly under the column passed by here and talked with me.

Let’s talk about this.”

"Yesterday, Senior Brother Fang Dasheng came to talk to me about the case again. I think this matter should end here! We still have to focus on the overall situation."

"After all, it was Lin Quan who committed the crime. Even if I insist on removing him from his post, the alliance resolution may not be passed. If it causes trouble for the column, it will not look good. And as far as I know, this Tang Ning still has some connections in the column, so there is nothing wrong with it.

It's so easy to send him to prison. Even if he is removed from his post, with Senior Brother Fang Dasheng here, he will be promoted to another position sooner or later."

"You have to stand up and offend Senior Brother Fang Dasheng severely. It will not do you any good in the future."

"I came to you today specifically to ask for your opinion. I agree with Senior Brother Fang Dasheng's proposal to fine Tangning three years of salary and three months of confinement. I don't know what you think?"

He Lian said: "Disciples will obey Master Uncle's instructions in everything they do. Since Master Uncle agrees, it is natural for me to do so."

Hao Jianren nodded: "I have always thought that you are a person who distinguishes between public and private affairs and has a sense of the overall situation. The punishment of three years' salary is not too light. I believe it is enough to teach him a lesson, and the matter will be settled."

"Five of the funding applications submitted by your first brigade have been approved, but only..."

………

In front of the towering attic, several rays of light shot out, and the three figures of Gu Yuanya and Chen Xiaofan appeared.

"Seniors, what do you need?" Inside, a beautiful-looking woman came forward and asked.

"I want a ferry ticket to Huajianting. The sooner the better."

"Okay, please wait." The woman took out a book, flipped through it for a while and said, "Tomorrow at noon, our merchant will have a wind spirit ship going to Huajian Pavilion, which requires 20,000 spirit stones."

Gu Yuanya turned it over in her hand and handed her two high-grade spiritual stones.

"Senior, please follow me." The woman led her forward.

"Junior Sister Gu, why are you going to Huajian Pavilion?" Chen Xiaofan stepped forward and asked.

"The first brigade is stationed at Huajian Pavilion. Since the master is detained there, I have to rush there as soon as possible." At this moment, Gu Yuanya was no longer as confused as before, but her expression was more anxious.

The three of them looked at each other, and Gao Yuan said: "Senior Sister Gu, we understand your mood. In fact, we are the same as you, but this matter cannot be solved in a hurry. I think we have to discuss it in the long run."

Yan Qing echoed from the side: "Yes! Senior Sister Gu, do you have any plans? Just give us instructions wherever we need our help."

"No matter what, I have to go see the master first."

Chen Xiaofan said: "Junior sister Gu, you should be familiar with the internal rules of Xuanmen. Although Uncle Tang has been detained and arrested, he is definitely not in any danger. I think the top priority is to sort out the situation and then try to help Uncle Tang get out of trouble as much as possible. With all due respect,

, with your current status, even if you rush to Huajian Pavilion, you may not be able to meet Uncle Tang smoothly."

Hearing this, Gu Yuanya paused slightly. Seeing this, Chen Xiaofan hurriedly said: "One person is short-term and two people are long-term. Especially at this time, there should be careful arrangements and deployments. If you rush around like a headless fly,

Not only will it not help, it may even be counterproductive.”

Gao Yuan interrupted at the right time: "Anyway, the Wind Spirit Ship will arrive tomorrow. We still have one day to discuss a specific countermeasure in advance."

Gu Yuanya nodded slightly: "What you said makes sense."

Yan Qing said: "This is not the place to talk. Let's go back to the room first and discuss it later!"

Led by the woman, the four people walked through the hall and came to the room in the rear courtyard. Chen Xiaofan took the lead and asked: "Junior sister Gu, don't you know anything about the detention and arrest of Uncle Tang?"

Gu Yuanya shook her head: "I just heard about it from you. I haven't heard any news before."

"Junior sister Gu, does Uncle Tang have anyone close to him in Taixuanzong? If he can serve as the director of Taixuanzong's garden pavilion, there must be support from someone above. We can try to contact them, it might be useful."

Gu Yuanya said: "My master is an old acquaintance with Fang Dasheng, the head of the headquarters unit. I am able to achieve this position because of his full support. In addition, my master has a close relationship with Bai Jintang, the inspector of the direct brigade of the headquarters column. At this time, I can save him."

There are only these two people who belong to the master."

Chen Xiaofan muttered: "Junior Sister Gu, if you rush to Huajian Pavilion now, can you guarantee that you will definitely see Uncle Tang?"

"I don't know about this either."

Chen Xiaofan said: "Let's do this! I have a suggestion, we might as well act separately. Since Junior Sister Gu can't guarantee that we will be able to contact Senior Uncle Tang, then Junior Sister Gu and I will go to Xuantang City to meet Senior Fang Dasheng, because besides you,

It's impossible for us to meet Senior Fang."

"As for Senior Uncle Tang, Junior Brother Gao and Junior Brother Yan are keeping an eye on it. You will set off immediately to Huajian Pavilion and try your best to find out as much news about Senior Uncle Tang as possible. Junior Sister Gu, what do you think?"

Gu Yuanya was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay! Just do as Senior Brother Chen said."
Chapter completed!
