Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 590 Take over Xuande Hall

Tangning took her seat and waved her hands, "You don't need to be polite, please sit down!"

Everyone sat down as promised, and there were twelve people in the room including Xu Zilong, all of whom were in charge of various departments under the Xuande Palace, including three from the Zhenfu Department, two from the Staff Department, two from the Palm Printing Department, three from the Supervision Department, and three from the Criminal Department. Two people from the prison department.

Among the twelve people, four held important positions in the ministry, namely, Xu Zilong, the deacon of the Zhenfu Department, Ma Yuanze, the deacon of the Supervision Department, Liu Ang, the inspector of the Staff Department, and Zheng Chang, the inspector of the Prison Department.

The remaining eight are also "excellent disciples" of various departments, either successors of the next department deacon, or strong contenders for the next department supervisor or deacon.

These people actually represent Tong Quanan's foundation in Xuande Hall.

More than a dozen people sat on the left and right sides of the long table, and they were ranked according to their status. The first person on the left was Xu Zilong, the first person on the right was Ma Yuanze, the deacon of the Supervision Department, and the second person on the left was the inspector of the Staff Department. Liu Ang, Zheng Chang, the second supervisor of the Criminal and Prison Department on the right.

The rest of the people also arranged their seats according to the level of cultivation.

After everyone was seated, they all turned their heads to look at Tang Ning, who was sitting in the chair. The room was silent, waiting for him to speak.

Tangning smiled as she held up her wine glass, "Today, I would like to thank you all for presenting a Buddha with flowers. Without your support, I would not have been able to be elected to the Xuande Hall. I hope you will continue to support me in the future. Tang will thank you in advance."

After saying that, he drank it all down, and everyone followed suit, saying, "I would like to follow Master Tang's order."

A banquet ended happily, and everyone went back to their caves without mentioning it.

...............................

The next day, in the main meeting hall of the Xuande Hall, the deacons of various departments sat in their seats, occasionally whispering a few words to each other. At a quarter of a hour, Tang Ning came in from the outside, and several people hurriedly stood up and saluted.

After Tangning arrived at the main seat, she waved her hand, signaling for a few people to take their seats.

The five people present were Xu Zilong, the deacon of the town government department, Ma Yuanze, the deacon of the inspection department, Fang Xiaoyuan, the deacon of the war department, Liu Xian, the deacon of the prison department, and Wang Guorang, the deacon of the printing department.

Among them, Xu Zilong and Ma Yuan are Tong Quanan's confidants.

Fang Xiaoyuan, Liu Xian, and Wang Guorang are all close friends of Luo Qingshui.

Tangning said, "I'm new here, so I don't know much about the affairs of the Xuande Palace. When you go back, please organize the archives of your respective departments over the past ten years and hand them over to me."

"Yes." Several people replied.

"No matter what rules and plans were set by Dianzhu Tong before, everything will be the same after that. I only ask for one thing. Any action must have a clear file report. Now let's talk about the situation of your respective departments."

Xu Zilong took the lead in saying: "There are fifty-two disciples in this department, including four foundation-building monks. This year, they have received [-] spirit stones. Up to now, there have been a total of seven trial judgments against sect disciples for violating laws and regulations, and there are two more. A trial to arrest casual cultivators."

Liu Xian, the deacon of the prison department, immediately said: "There are forty-three disciples in this department, and four foundation-building monks. This year, we have received [-] spirit stones, so far..."

Everyone spoke one by one and described the basic situation of their respective departments.

.....................

Dark clouds covered the moon, and it rained cats and dogs.

A ray of light shot towards the deserted hill, revealing the figure of a burly middle-aged man. He looked around vigilantly and headed into the cave ahead.

It was pitch black inside, and you couldn't see your fingers, only the sound of tiny insects could be heard. There was a person sitting cross-legged on the stone wall in the corner, with a handsome face and a slightly thin figure.

"Why is it you?" The man's expression changed slightly. Although his vision was dark, he could still see clearly that the person who came was none other than Tangning.

After he was promoted to the head of the Xuande Hall, he took over the affairs of the Xuande Hall, including some senior insiders.

Tong Quan'an has been in charge of the Secret Academy for more than a hundred years, and has been in charge of the Xuande Hall for decades. He has mastered many confidential matters. Only he and the head teacher know the identities of several senior insiders.

When Tang Ning was elected as the head of the Xuande Hall to visit him, she informed him of the identities of these people and their contact information.

The person in front of me is named Tao Mingjie, a disciple of the Youmei Sect, who has cultivated in the middle stage of foundation establishment, and is now in charge of specific matters in the western part of the Central Plains. It is worth mentioning that he was originally a disciple of the Youmei Sect who escaped from Lao Gang. A lot of effort.

He is the highest-level elaborator among the members of the Youmei Sect in Mujinyuan. Although his cultivation is only in the middle stage of foundation establishment, he is quite trusted by the senior leaders of the Youmei Sect. If he can improve his cultivation in the future, he will enter the center of the Youmei Sect. It will be of great help to Qian Yizong.

Because of this, Tangning came to meet him in person.

And the reason why he turned his back on the Youmei sect was because the salary of the Youmei sect was too low, which was far from enough for his cultivation of elixir. One item.

It happened that Xu Yunian, the son of the Patriarch of the Xu family in Longyou, had found out that there were foundation building pills and other things on him, and he couldn't calm down.

Because Xu Yunian only had the ninth level of Qi Refining, he was far away from Foundation Establishment!Because of the rich family background, I got this thing early to prepare for the foundation.

And he worked hard, practiced diligently for decades, and finally reached the tenth level of Qi Refining, but he couldn't even supply the pills, let alone the foundation building things.

He was jealous and resentful, and for his own sake, he took the risk, killed Xu Yunian, and robbed him of his belongings, including of course the foundation building pill, the marrow washing pill, the cloud and water array, etc., so the foundation was successfully established.

But he didn't know that Tong Quan'an planned all of this behind the scenes. At that time, the Youmei Sect annexed the Corpse Puppet Sect and made a comeback. Without insider information, Tong Quan'an was the head of the secret academy at the time, so he started this counter-instigating operation.

At that time, he instigated a total of four Youmei Sect disciples. These four belonged to the original Youmei Sect disciples. , so the salary was extremely low, so Tong Quanan selected them to instigate rebellion.

Three of them were successfully instigated to rebel, and only one had an accident and was finally assassinated by Tong Quan'an.

Among the three, only Tao Jie succeeded in building the foundation in the end, and the other two died after failing to build the foundation.

The reason why Tao Jie knew that Xu Yunian had what he needed to build a foundation was because Huang Xiong told him that this Huang Xiong was a disciple of the Original Corpse Puppet Sect, who later became a disciple of the Phantom Sect and worked with Tao Jie at that time. The southern leader of Longyou acts under his seat, and his other identity is Qian Yizong's meticulous work.

It was he who was ordered to inform Tao Jie of the news, and then bewitched and hinted that he would ambush Xu Yunian and rob him of the property.

After Tao Jie couldn't bear the temptation to kill Xu Yunian, Tong Quan'an made a move. He had sent someone to keep an eye on Tao Jie and obtained conclusive evidence that he killed Xu Yunian.

But within the Youmei Sect, killing the disciples of the cultivating family and robbing the finances will be executed. Tong Quan'an seized him as an excuse and successfully instigated him. One of the fine work.

Over the years, Tong Quan'an has spent a lot of effort on him, including providing him with a lot of pills and spirit stones every year.

"Let's introduce myself first! My name is Tang Ning. Master Tong asked me to meet you. If you need anything in the future, you can contact me directly. The previous contact channel remains the same," Tang Ning said.

"Where is Senior Tong! Why did you come here instead?" Tao Jie asked vigilantly.

"He has resigned from the position of Xuande Hall, and he will pass away soon. Now I will hold this position. In the future, we will have a one-line relationship."

"What?" Tao Jie was slightly startled, "Senior Tong..."

"If there is no urgent or special matter in the future, you will send a message every three months. What actions has the Ghost Sect made recently?"

"I'm not in the base camp, and I don't know much about many things. However, there have been some abnormalities recently. As far as I know, the disciple in charge of foreign trade affairs in the sect has arrived in the Central Plains on the third day of this month. This person's name is Yang Zicheng, the head teacher. The confidant is mainly responsible for the transfer of business with Broken Ridge Mountain Square City, so it stands to reason that he shouldn't be here frequently."

"Any clues?".

"It's not clear yet. I suspect that he may have been ordered to instigate a rebellion against a family of cultivators, because I got news that he settled in Yingxia Mountain camp, but in just one month, he went out three times, and each time he went out three to four times. The Japanese return, such a short time, counting the distance he traveled back and forth, he can only wander in the territory of Chu State."

"If it's about commodity trade, he won't come here alone, and he doesn't need to communicate frequently, so I think he may have come here by secret order."

Tangning said, "Who do you think his target of instigation is?"

Tao Jie said: "Given his status and status, he came here in person and has frequent contacts. If it is really to instigate rebellion against the practice family, it can only be the Wang family."

"That's it for today. If you have any news, please let me know." Tangning flipped her left hand and threw him a storage bag.

Tao Jie took it and took a look: "Thank you, senior." After saying that, he turned and left the cave.

Not long after, Tang Ning also left this place, and went to South China, Beiyuan and other places to meet various cultivating families and the secret workers in the market, and finally went to the Broken Ridge Mountain City to buy several bottles of Huang Yuan Dan, seven or eight days later Return to sect.
