Longevity begins with marrying your sister-in-law

"What are you looking at?"

"There's no point in being envious!"

Yan Hong whispered, "He has a good talent for martial arts, and he is highly regarded by Elder Zhan. In just a few years, he has reached the third level of the Dao Realm."

Although he was talking about Chen Xuan, he was also very envious in his heart.

Not only him, there are several people in the Three Law Courts who do not envy Zong Peng.

I didn’t expect that such a martial arts genius could emerge from a remote place like the Moran Mansion.

"Why do you sound a bit sour?"

Chen Xuan teased.

"Go! Go! Go!"

Yan Hong rolled his eyes and said, "Let's go in quickly. It seems that the list of people guarding the pavilion will be announced today."

At this moment, his expression became hopeful.

"seems like it."

Chen Xuan also nodded slightly and searched for information about guarding the pavilion in his mind.

Shouge refers to the library that guards the Three Law Departments.

Rotation once a month, ten people each time.

The reason why Yan Hong was so excited was that the speed of practicing in the library was at least dozens of times faster than usual.

So when the time came to discuss the replacement of the guards, all the people from the three judicial departments were very excited.

Last night Ye Jinghong said that he paid a considerable price to compensate Murong Chuan.

It’s because there is a high chance that Murong Chuan will be on the list this time.

Of course, Yan Hong is also one of them.

The two of them quickened their pace and walked into the Sanfasiji.

The Three Courts of Justice in the imperial capital are very large.

Of course there are a lot of people.

There were nearly a thousand people in white clothes alone.

Furthermore, if one wants to become Bai Yi, one must be at least in the middle stage of the Profound Realm.

Today is the day to announce the list of names to guard the cabinet, which is a big day for the Three Judicial Departments, so it is particularly lively.

At this time, in the martial arts arena of the Three Law Departments.

When Chen Xuan and Yan Hong arrived here, there were already nearly a hundred people.

"Old Yan is here."

A middle-aged man in white clothes greeted Yan Hong.

"Wow, Old Cow is here really early."

Yan Hong teased.

"There's nothing I can do. I've been waiting for nearly seven or eight years. Finally, there are only a hundred people left. My chances are relatively high. I haven't slept for days and nights."

There were bloodshot in the old cow's eyes.

He has been in the Sanfasi for nearly ten years, but his talent is average and he has never made any significant achievements.

So guarding the pavilion for the past seven or eight years had nothing to do with him.

Fortunately, the three judicial departments are relatively fair and will change the salary every month.

And after guarding the pavilion, you must wait until all the white-clothed people have been rotated out before you can be included in the list.

This can also give hope to those mediocre people.

After all, although these people have not made any great contributions, they have worked diligently in the Three Law Courts for so many years, so they can be considered to have made some hard work.

This rule was revised when Zhan Tian became the director of the Three Law Departments.

Otherwise, this guardhouse has basically nothing to do with ordinary people like them, just like an old cow.

It’s been seven or eight years, and I’ve been enduring it all the time.

This may also be related to Zhantian’s own experience.

He walked out from the bottom little by little.

"Don't worry, even if you don't have it this time, you won't be gone for long."

Yan Hong comforted him.

After all, there are only a hundred or so white-clothed people left. They are replaced once a month, ten people each time. The worst case scenario is less than a year.

For Lao Niu, the hard times have finally paid off.

"Yeah. It's finally my turn."

Lao Niu murmured that he had been stuck in the late Xuan realm for a long time and hoped to take the opportunity of guarding the pavilion to break through to the Dao realm.

If it succeeds, then Jin Yi is not without hope.

His treatment and status will also be greatly improved.

At this time, Chen Xuan's gaze was looking towards the far left.

It was Zong Zheng.

"With Zong Peng's status and position, does he still need to compete with Bai Yi for this spot?"

Because Jin Yi and those above him can enter the library at any time based on their contributions.

Especially people like Zong Peng, who can enter at any time without making any contribution.

There shouldn't be any problem bringing Zong Zheng in, right?

Although this is a bit unfair, in a world where fists are everything, there is no absolute fairness.

"look."

Lao Niu pointed his lips and the direction was exactly towards Zong Zheng.

"Why is he here?"

Yan Hong raised his eyebrows and his expression immediately became dissatisfied.

"That's right. Even with Lord Zong Peng, he still wants to compete with the likes of us for the spot. Humph!"

Lao Niu also snorted in dissatisfaction.

Moreover, his voice was not small. Everyone here was a master in the Xuan realm, so they could hear it clearly.

Zong Zheng tilted his head slightly to look over here, but his expression did not change at all, and then he continued to look forward.

Zong Peng can bring him into the library, but it will also consume contribution.

So he didn't want that.

After all, entering the library to practice is more important to Zong Peng, and it would be a bit of a waste to use the contribution points on him.

As for himself, he just had to wait with Bai Yi.

He doesn't care what other people think.

In a hall of the Three Law Departments.

Wu Yue looked at the list of people who would be guarding the pavilion this time. These ten people usually performed quite well.

But then he looked up at the man in front of him, "Is Zong Zheng not here?"

"This"

The man hesitated for a moment, but soon said, "After all, it's too late for him to enter the Imperial Capital's Three Law Departments. I discussed with them and decided that it would be better to wait a little longer."

Each of these ten people has been waiting for more than five years.

How long has Zong Zheng been here?

Moreover, the Three Courts have not made any contributions, and putting it up there will easily cause controversy.

Wu Yue didn't say much, but picked up the pen on the table and added Zong Zheng's name.

"My Lord, that's a lot of words."

The man on the side reminded.

"know."

Wu Yue said calmly, and then the tip of his pen stopped at the names of the ten people one by one.

When the pen stopped at Niu Chang's name, he simply crossed it out.

Then he put down the pen in his hand and said, "We still have to give Zong Peng face."

Ever since he came to the imperial capital, he showed his talent in martial arts and Zhan Tian's attitude, and he knew that the position of director had nothing to do with him anymore.

In this case, it would be better to give him some face and befriend him.

"This is reality."

Wu Yue sighed inwardly.

Although he was unwilling, he was also extremely helpless because his talent in martial arts lay here.

Sometimes you just can't resist.

"So be it."

Wu Yue handed over the list in his hand.

The man took it with both hands, "Yes!"

Of course he had no objection, after all, the final decision-making power lay with Wu Yue.

After a slight bow, he headed towards the martial arts arena.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

Niu Chang felt inexplicably impatient. Even though he was a master in the late Xuan realm, his heart was pounding at this moment.

"It should be almost time. Don't worry. You will be there when it's your turn. There's no point in worrying."

Yan Hong patted his shoulder.

"I know that, but I've been waiting for so many years. You don't understand that feeling."

Niu Chang shook his head helplessly.

Yan Hong had only been at the Sanfasi for three years, and Murong Chuan for only two years.

But their situations are much better than his.

Whether it is his talent in martial arts or his contribution to the Three Laws Department, take Yan Hong for example. Last year, when he inspected the Three Laws Department under him, he killed several bandits in the late Xuan realm.

As for Murong Chuan, he killed a hidden killer who was in the late Profound Realm half a year ago.

The contributions made by these two people are enough to make them included in this list.

Only he himself has been in charge of the imperial capital all these years, working diligently, without making any mistakes or making any achievements.

But the several streets he managed over the years were rated as excellent.

And for five consecutive years!
This is rare among the three judicial departments.

He had inquired about it a few days ago, and this time this list would be prioritized as a criterion.

That's why he was so excited.

"coming!"

Chen Xuan suddenly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Niu Chang was startled and looked over immediately.

"It's Lord Fang."

That means he was the one who drew up the list this time.

He suddenly looked excited because the news was leaked by someone close to Lord Fang.

"Is Old Cow a little too excited?"

Yan Hong sent a message to Chen Xuan.

"Well, a little bit, it seems like I will definitely be selected!"

Chen Xuan was also a little curious.

"That's strange. Did he receive any news?"

"You'll know soon, why rush?"

At this moment, all eyes were focused on Fang Yuchen. He came in front of everyone with a faint smile on his face.

"Everyone has been waiting for a long time."

Fang Yuchen's voice was not loud, but it struck everyone's heart.

"Meet Master Fang."

At this time, all the people in white saluted slightly towards him.

"You're welcome, everyone."

The smile on Fang Yuchen's face grew even wider; he really liked this feeling.

"You command the world!"

That’s what power brings.

And it was just such a small amount of power.

Fang Yuchen chuckled in his heart.

However, he did not deliberately keep these people in white clothes hanging. At this moment, they were all staring at the list in his hand.

"I know you've all been waiting for a long time. For some of you, five years is considered a short time. So I won't waste time and will get started."

After that, he opened the list in his hand.

"Cough cough."

Then he smiled and said, "There's phlegm stuck in my throat, don't get excited."

"Ha ha."

Immediately, those people in white also laughed, but they were just accompanying laughs. Some of them were so nervous that they even forced a smile.

"It's really a bit naughty."

Chen Xuan also shook his head and smiled.

I don’t know how anxious these people in white were at this moment, but he did this.

However, the originally tense atmosphere was now much more relaxed.

"Okay, no more fuss, it's really about to begin."

Fang Yuchen looked at the list in his hand.

At this time, the entire training ground was unusually quiet, and only the heavy breathing of some people could be heard.

"Yan Hong!"

"I'm here!"

Yan Hong almost gritted his teeth as he said these two words. His face flushed red, veins on his forehead were exposed, and his big hands were clenched into fists.

Although I guessed that there is a high probability that he will be there this time.

But when Fang Yuchen really read out his name, the feeling was different.

"Congratulations, Brother Yan!"

Chen Xuan congratulated with a smile, he was very familiar with this feeling in his previous life.

Isn’t it the end of the semester, and we are waiting for the teacher to announce the candidates for the three good students?

"Teng Ze!"

The second name was then called out by Fang Yuchen.

"I am me!"

A middle-aged man in the crowd pointed at himself excitedly and shouted around in surprise.

"Congratulations, congratulations."

There was also a flurry of congratulations, and it was obvious that they were on good terms with him.

As for the others, they were all staring at Fang Yuchen.

Then the third one. And the fourth one!
As each name was read out.

There are surprises and excitement.

But more people are still looking forward to it.

As the number of places left is decreasing, some people have begun to sigh.

Eyes full of disappointment.

"The ninth Murong Chuan!"

"Sure enough, he is there!"

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, no wonder Ye Jinghong said it cost a lot.

"It seems that I have to compensate him after this is over."

After all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Chen Xuan would feel a little guilty if he didn't compensate Murong Chuan.

"You. Murong, how can you be so calm?"

Yan Hong punched Chen Xuan, grinning and laughing.

Among the three judicial officials, he and Murong Chuan had the best relationship. They were of course happy that they were both selected.

"hehe!"

"Happy, why not happy!"

"Just shocked."

Chen Xuan forced a smile very hard, pretending to be in a trance.

He had to pretend, as many people were looking at him.

It would be abnormal if you weren't happy about such a big thing.

"Hahahaha you're not as good as me. You're stunned."

Yan Hong took the opportunity to make fun of him.

"There's one more. One more."

At this moment, Niu Chang murmured something. If it were any other time, he would definitely say "congratulations", after all, he and Murong Chuan had a good relationship.

But now he really wasn't in the mood.

His eyes were fixed on Fang Yuchen, and his face was even a little distorted with nervousness.

He kept mumbling in his mouth.

Yan Hong did not speak at this time. After all, he was the last one. It would be better if it was Niu Chang. If not, he would be selected after all, which would be bad. Therefore, not speaking was the best choice.

"the last one."

Fang Yuchen paused for a moment and glanced at everyone, "Zong Zheng!"

Finally, his gaze rested on Zong Zheng.

In silence, almost everyone's eyes turned to Zong Zheng.

"It's him!"

"How could it be him!"

"He has only been here for a short time, and he hasn't accomplished anything."

"What's the big deal? I have a good brother."

For a moment, those who were not selected this time started talking about it.

"Not me?!"

Niu Chang was completely stunned and couldn't believe the result.

Isn’t it said that the basis for this selection is based on the results of the selections in recent years?
And that person said that there was a 99% chance that he was on the list.

"impossible!"

Niu Chang suddenly looked up. It must be him. Zong Zheng, who took his place.

In an instant, the aura couldn't help but burst out.

"It's you, it's you!"

Niu Chang looked at Zong Zheng angrily, "You stole it!"

"presumptuous!"

"Niu Chang, are you planning a rebellion?"

Fang Yuchen shouted, interrupting him. At the same time, the aura of the third level of the Dao Realm burst out and pressed down on Niu Chang.

It bent him down directly!

But this was the result of his mercy.

"Master Fang, Niu Chang just lost his mind for a moment. Please be magnanimous and forgive him this time."

Yan Hong quickly pleaded for him.

Not only him, others also started to plead for mercy.

This is enough to show that Niu Chang is quite popular in the Three Law Departments. Of course, part of the reason is that he is displeased with Zong Zheng.

Although they were not sure whether this spot belonged to Niu Chang, they knew that Zong Zheng's name should not appear on this list.

But there's nothing he can do about it, since he has a good older brother.

And now that it has been announced, it will not be changed.

They couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so they pleaded for Niu Chang.

"Humph!"

Fang Yuchen snorted coldly, then restrained his breath.

But he wasn't really angry.

But Niu Chang must never say the following words in public.

Besides, he knows the situation best.

Although Niu Chang has not made any great achievements in these years, there has not been any incident on the street under his jurisdiction.

Rated as top every year.

After so many years of accumulation, he was actually the first one to be selected this time.

But there was no way. Wu Yue just crossed out his name.

"Hey!"

I sighed in my heart, maybe this is the sorrow of honest people?
Of course, this was just his guess, or it could be that he simply had bad luck.

"The ten of you will come to the library early tomorrow morning and we will assign you positions then."

After giving the instructions, Fang Yuchen left. He still had to report to Wu Yue.

"boom!"

Niu Chang sat down on the ground, his eyes dull and his whole body dazed, as if he was stupid.

"Hey!"

Chen Xuan also sighed quietly in his heart.

After enduring for so many years, I finally saw the opportunity coming, but I didn't expect that it would be taken away by a person with connections.

This kind of blow is not something that ordinary people can bear.

"Old Cow, it's okay. We've waited for so many years, so a year or two won't make a difference. Cheer up."

Yan Hong squatted down and tried to comfort her.

"hehe!"

Niu Chang showed a smile that was uglier than bitterness.

"Old Yan, you don't know the situation. There's nothing we can do."

He looked up to the sky and sighed.

His dull eyes recovered, but were full of disappointment.

Then he slowly stood up, and smiled the biggest smile he could muster towards Yan Hong and Chen Xuan, "Congratulations to you two."

"I'll go back to my place first. There are a lot of things that need me to deal with every day."

After that, he walked directly outside.

But that look seems very lonely.

Yan Hong couldn't help shaking his head as he watched, "Lao Niu's luck has really been too bad in recent years."

"Ok!"

"He seemed very confident that he would be selected, but in the end..."

Chen Xuan didn't say anything else.

"What can be done?"

Yan Hong spread his hands and said, "In the imperial capital, background is sometimes more important than anything else."

"Be careful!"

Chen Xuan lowered his voice.

"It's okay, Master Fang has already left, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Yan Hong is not afraid at all now.

And those people were also discussing this matter at this time, but they were communicating via voice transmission.

As for the person involved, Zong Zheng, he had a blank expression on his face and then walked out silently.

Not a word was said from beginning to end.

In fact, he was also very surprised in his heart, but after thinking about it, he was not so surprised.

After all, eldest brother has his current status and position, and he is highly respected by Mr. Zhan, so he still has some face.

He relies on his big brother, but isn't background a form of strength? (End of this chapter)
