Master Jianyang took a sip of the spiritual tea and then said to Fang Jian: "As the God of Justice, you should know what this is, right?"
"Knowing the law and breaking the law will result in an additional penalty." Fang Jian said slowly.
Master Jianyang nodded and said, "Okay, can you plead guilty?"
Fang Jianji bowed and said: "This official has violated the law of heaven and should plead guilty."
"In that case, I will fine you six years in office and ten years in salary." Master Jianyang said: "You will be suspended from the post of Chief Minister of Taixuan Province and the Judicial God of Tianjing Court for six years, and you will be fined Penglai Tian." Six years as a street patrol officer and ten years as a fine."
Upon hearing the sentence imposed by Master Jianyang Fang Jian, the judges present were all shocked.
The so-called job penalty is a disguised form of 'demotion', but it does not have the right to remove your own position, but only punishes you to do other jobs for a few years.
For example, punishing a super-level immortal official to become an earth god, this kind of punishment has a clear meaning of demotion.
The patrol officer of Penglai Tianjie is just a ninth-grade immortal official. A fine of ten years means no meritorious salary for ten years. But the punishment of being fined from work is obviously much more serious than the fine.
Master Jie Qing and others present looked at Fang Jian with worried eyes. Although they didn't know what the purpose of the new hospital master was to 'humiliate' Fang Jian like this, but if Fang Jian couldn't help but take action directly, then it would be Not a good ending.
However, what surprised everyone was that Fang Jian was not dissatisfied with this treatment. Instead, he cupped his fists and said, "Fang Jian accepts the punishment."
Master Jianyang then drew up the Heavenly Law Talisman Edict and said to Fang Jian: "From now on, within six years, you will not be allowed to exercise the authority of Taixuan Province Chengwulang and Judiciary God, and you must fulfill your duties as a patrol officer." , Violators will be severely punished.”
"Fang Jian understands, please rest assured, Master." Fang Jian said quietly.
Master Jianyang nodded, and after issuing the edict of the Heavenly Law Talisman, he said to Fang Jian: "You go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to receive the edict, and then go to Penglai Tianjie to report."
"Yes, I will resign." Fang Jian stood up and said goodbye, and then left the Tianlu Palace under the gaze of everyone.
After Fang Jian left the Heavenly Court, everyone turned around and turned their attention to Master Jianyang.
He punished Fang Jian as soon as he took office. I have to say that Master Jianyang burned the fire very well.
And what surprised everyone even more was, how did Master Jianyang know about Fang Jian's search for Prince Tang in the lower world?
Fang Jian, as the god of justice, is famous for his strict adherence to heavenly laws. Now that Master Jianyang has caught him in such a small way, he can't even defend himself. Apart from the option of taking action, he can only plead guilty and accept the punishment.
Moreover, Fang Jian did not defend himself, not even a word of defense from beginning to end.
"I hope that all my colleagues will strictly abide by the laws of heaven and enforce the law impartially, and take the example of Master Shao Ling and Master Hongqing as a warning." Master Jianyang said earnestly to the remaining judicial gods present.
After everyone heard this, they immediately accepted the order in a solemn voice and said, "Thank you very much, Bishop of the Academy, for your teachings. We will definitely keep them in mind."
Then Master Jian Yang waved his hand and said: "You still have important positions, so I won't delay you. Let's go back to where we came from."
After Master Jianyang finished speaking, everyone immediately stood up and bowed: "Yes, I will retire."
Everyone exited the Tianlu Palace, and even Ke Mengqing, who was always lively, felt a little dull today.
All the way to the square outside the temple, several people stopped in a tacit understanding, then raised their heads and looked at each other.
But only Jie Qing was expressionless, still smiling and looking like a good old man.
After a long time, the indifferent Master Qin Yi spoke up and said: "Master Hongqing originally sent Master Shao Ling to Leize according to the laws of heaven. Now he has also violated the laws of heaven and been punished. This is God's will."
Ke Mengqing sighed and said: "That's what I said, but I always feel that something is wrong with the current Heavenly Court. It's better to have Master Xun Kuang."
"Master Xun Kuang has only been gone for less than a day, is it a little bad for you to say that?" Song Ci glanced at Ke Mengqing and said.
"Okay, okay." Master Jie Qing, the most senior person, said at this time: "It was the same when Master Xun Kuang took office. Otherwise, how can we establish authority and convince the public?"
"Did Master Xun Kuang be like this back then?" Ke Mengqing asked curiously, "Then who did he seek to establish his power?"
Master Jie Qing smiled and said, "Me."
Speaking of this, Master Jie Qing said with a smile: "When Master Xun Kuang took office, I messed up something. He just used it to establish his power and punished me by sweeping the Tianlu Palace for ten years."
"Let's go to Xie Shui Lang first." Master Jie Qing said.
Everyone nodded slightly after hearing the words, and then headed to a fairy garden northeast of the Heavenly Court.
Master Jie Qing led everyone to the Xie Shui Corridor. Looking at the gurgling quiet stream in front of him, with the water flowing like a waterfall, Master Jie Qing turned around and said to the heavenly judges present: "This Master Jianyang is He is from a Taoist sect and is the third disciple of Immortal Pili."
Everyone's eyes suddenly widened when they heard this, disciples of Immortal Pili! If I remember correctly, Liu Chenxiang is also the disciple of Immortal Pili.
...
Fang Jian once again went to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to receive his punishment. Unless the immortal officials in the Heavenly Court system committed a capital crime or were dismissed from office, they all received their punishments at the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
If he committed a capital crime, he would have to go to the Ministry of Mines for trial.
"This time is not a light one." Qingjing Zhenren, the head of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, said to Fang Jian: "From the fourth-grade Taixuan Chengfu Lang to the fifth-grade Judiciary God, I am suddenly punished to a patrolman on Penglai Tianjie. I'm afraid Someone is going to laugh at you."
Fang Jian received the punishment edict and said after hearing the words: "I have violated the laws of heaven and I deserve to be punished. If others want to laugh, let them laugh. There is no provision in my laws of heaven that prohibits others from laughing."
"Hahaha." Qingjing Zhenren walked out of the jade case, reached out and patted Fang Jian on the shoulder and said: "Don't be afraid, you will be reinstated in six years. Besides, the Great Heavenly Lord and the Great Envoy will respect you, so a little setback is just right. You can hone yourself.”
When Fang Jian heard this, he nodded thoughtfully and said: "You said so, Master, but I remembered that after picking the Taiyi Xuanxian Tao Fruit, my Taoist mind and realm have not yet had time to stabilize. So I have been acting a bit lately. If you lose your bias, you can take this opportunity to practice and stabilize your Taoist mind and realm."
"Taiyi Xuanxian?!" Master Qingjing was really surprised when he heard this. Then he looked at Fang Jian carefully and found that he couldn't see through Fang Jian's cultivation level.
Master Qingjing is a Xuanxian Taoist, the same as Master Xun Kuang, so it is naturally difficult for him to notice anything unusual about Fang Jian, who has become Taiyi Xuanxian.
At this time, after Fang Jian said it, he suddenly realized it, and then said in shock: "Were you the one who picked the Taiyi Xuanxian Dao Fruit in the Heavenly Court that day?"
Fang Jian cupped his hands and smiled: "Exactly."
"I always thought it was fellow Taoist Xun Kuang... Ouch! That's incredible!" Master Qingjing looked at Fang Jian and said, "It's been less than fifty years since you became the God of the Earth to where you are now, right?"
Fang Jian smiled and said, "Nearly thirty years."
"Hiss..." Master Qingjing took a breath, then looked at Fang Jian and said: "No wonder the Great Heavenly Lord and the Great Master think so highly of you, you are indeed a gift from heaven."
"The hospital master is overly praised." Fang Jian waved his hand and said with a smile.
Master Qingjing took a step back, stared at Fang Jian for a moment, then nodded and said: "Well, good, good, my heaven has finally surpassed the Taoist and Buddhist families in terms of rising stars, good."
Facing Master Qingjing's praise, Fang Jian said nothing and didn't know what to say. He just shook his head and smiled.
After a while, Master Qingjing said to Fang Jian: "You are right just now. It is not a bad thing to become a patrol school captain this time. It is just a good opportunity to consolidate one's moral conduct and realm."
Fang Jianji said: "In this case, I will go to Penglai Tianjie to report first, and take my leave."
Master Qingjing asked with a smile: "You haven't been to the Four Heavenly Streets yet, have you?"
Fang Jian nodded and said, "It's true that I haven't been there yet."
Master Qingjing said with a smile: "Then go and have a good look. You will like it there."
After Fang Jian paid homage to the real person Qingjing, he took the punishment edict and went to Tianhe from outside the Nantian Gate to the Xinghe Road.
Tianhe, also known as the Milky Way, the Four Heavenly Streets are located in the middle of the Huanghuang Tianhe.
