Lei Department, Taiyi Thunder Division. hit
Prime Minister Jianhe of the Taiyi Thunder Division stood under his highness. Above the hall were the Five Directions Thunder Emperors who were sitting high on Qingyun, and the Taoist Daluo Bixiao Empress who was also sitting high on Qingyun.
At this time, the Five Directions Thunder Emperors were under great pressure. Empress Bixiao was a Daluo of the Taoist sect, and the Heavenly Court had also given her the title of emperor, and her position was the same as that of the Five Elders.
Therefore, the Five Thunder Emperors could only delay for a moment despite the pressure from Empress Bixiao, and quickly asked Lei Zhenzi to call Fang Jian back to heaven. Anyway, he was not afraid of anything, and he was the God of Justice, so he should be allowed to handle this matter. thing.
Therefore, when Fang Jian entered the Taiyi Thunder Division, the Five Thunder Emperors were immediately relieved. They heard the central Huangtian Benglie Thunder Emperor directly say to Fang Jian who was about to salute: "Fang Jian, there is no need to be polite, you are the God of Justice." , let you handle Yu Lingfang’s matter."
Yu Lingfang is the full name of Fairy Lingfang. At the same time, the Northern Thunder Emperor said: "Fang Jian, you don't know yet, but Yu Lingfang is the eldest disciple of Empress Bixiao."
Fang Jian couldn't suppress his anger when he heard this, "Go back to the North Thunder Emperor, I know now."
Then Fang Jian looked towards Empress Bixiao and saw that Empress Bixiao: Strike
Sitting high on the Qingyun, the nine-cloud jade is pure. The mysterious light covers the heaven and earth, and the celestial beings are infinitely wonderful.
Yuan Guang follows the righteous method, and the blue sky shines on Xiyi. On the Miaomiao lotus platform, one’s life will last forever.
"Your Majesty." Fang Jian bowed his hands and said, "I heard that your Majesty is going to take away the criminal Yu Lingfang?"
"Rumors." Empress Bixiao said in a clear voice, wearing a pure Yuxia Taoist robe and a purple lotus crown on her head. Her clear eyes were looking forward to her, and her brows were like distant mountains.
Then, she looked at Fang Jian and lightly opened his red lips and said, "Fang Jian, Yu Lingfang is Pindao's great disciple. Pindao is willing to use his merits to atone for her sins today."
Daluo Jinxian has some privileges, one of which can atone for the sins of others, but doing so requires karma, and the consequences of karma are unpredictable.
Fang Jian looked directly at Empress Bixiao, cupped his hands and said, "Empress, Yu Lingfang is suspected of multiple crimes. Which crime do you want to atone for her?"
"Full redemption." Empress Bixiao said softly.
Fang Jian said: "No, empress, you can only atone for her once."
Empress Bixiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Fang Jian and said, "Atoning for sins with merit is the law set by the Great Heavenly Lord, and it does not stipulate that you can only atone one sin. Why, do you want to disobey the Great Heavenly Lord's order?"
"The Great Heavenly Lord does not stipulate that you can only atone one sin, but the Great Heavenly Lord appointed me as the God of Justice, so the specific number of sins to atone for should be decided by me, the God of Justice." Fang Jian said.
Empress Bixiao frowned slightly, but she already knew that Fang Jian was difficult to deal with, so she was prepared for it. "Then tell me, how many crimes does Yu Lingfang have?"
Fang Jian said: "The first crime is that Yu Lingfang imitated the Huaguang Baogun, a magical weapon strictly prohibited by heaven, and sold it to others without authorization."
Empress Bixiao said: "The one banned by Heaven is the Huaguang Baogun, not an imitation of the Huaguang Baogun. Lingfang, what is the name of the magical weapon you imitated?"
When Yu Lingfang heard this, she immediately said, "Master, it's called 'Lingfang Baogun'."
Empress Bixiao nodded, and then said to Fang Jian: "Look, the magical weapon she imitated is called Lingfang Baogun, not Huaguang Baogun, and Huaguang Baogun will not be damaged after being used once, right? Lingfang Baogun It will be destroyed after being used once, which is enough to prove that the Lingfang Baogun is not the Huaguang Baogun, so this crime is not established."
Fang Jian said: "Your Majesty, please don't quibble. What I'm talking about is the act of imitating Huaguang Baogun, not whether the magic weapon after imitating Huaguang Baogun is Huaguang Baogun. It's just that she imitated Huaguang Baogun." An act is a crime.”
The Thunder Emperor of the West saw that Fang Jian was speaking so rudely and was afraid that he would anger Empress Bixiao, so he said, "Fang Jian, don't be rude to Empress Bixiao."
Fang Jian said: "Reporting to the Thunder Emperor of the West, I only have 'reason and disrespect' here."
The Thunder Emperor of the West hesitated when he heard the words, then shook his head helplessly and smiled. Then Fang Jian said to Empress Bixiao: "Empress, are you right?"
Empress Bixiao was silent for a moment, and then said: "Fang Jian, you are worthy of being the God of Justice. You are right. But I want to ask you, how big a crime is this imitation of Huaguang Baogun? As a God of Justice, you have always been Known for impartially enforcing the law, you must answer truthfully."
This was another attack on Fang Jian's army, but Fang Jian did not feel embarrassed, but said directly: "Imitating a magical weapon that is expressly prohibited by Heavenly Court is a misdemeanor and should be punished with a thunder whip ranging from ten to thirty times."
"But." Fang Jian changed the topic and said, "Yu Lingfang's crime cannot be treated as a misdemeanor. This involves her second crime: imitating magical weapons banned by heaven and selling them to others, which ultimately caused The serious consequences of being assassinated to death by a heavenly official is a serious crime."
Empress Bixiao said: "Are you talking about the assassination of Taixuan Chief Immortal Master Youguang?"
"That's right." Fang Jian nodded and said, "Immortal Master Youguang was assassinated to death by the murderer using a magical weapon imitated by Yu Lingfang."
Empress Bixiao said: "This is a good thing, but you need to know that Yuan Keqiu was originally planning to assassinate his father Yuan Fengtai, at least that's what he thought when he bought the Baogun weapon. He also asked Lingfang about the weapon. Is it possible to assassinate Jinxian? The assassination of Immortal Youguang was completely impromptu, and Lingfang had no knowledge of it beforehand, so she only bears secondary responsibility at most, not the main responsibility, and she is not even an accomplice."
Speaking of this, Empress Bixiao said again: "Even if this matter comes to the Lingxiao Palace, the truth is the same. As the God of Justice, you should be clear about this matter."
Daluo Jinxian is indeed difficult to deal with. They will straighten out the cause and effect of everything they do, and they themselves have the strength to surpass Tianziao, so it is difficult for Fang Jian to refute the words of Empress Bixiao. hit
Even if he takes out the Jade Emperor's Dao Calendar, cause and effect is cause and effect, and the truth is the truth. You can't ignore these just because you have the Jade Emperor's Dao Calendar, right?
"Fang Jian, am I right?" At this time, Empress Bixiao asked Fang Jian again.
Fang Jian pondered for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty is right."
"So if these two crimes are added together, what kind of punishment will Lingfang receive?" Empress Bixiao asked.
Fang Jian said: "According to the law of heaven, the two crimes are punished together. Yu Lingfang should be sentenced to thirty days of thunder whip and sent to Leize Prison to serve a sentence of five thousand years."
Empress Bixiao nodded and said, "What about her third crime?"
"This is the key point." Fang Jian said: "Yu Lingfang resisted the law of heaven and attacked the God of Justice. He took hostages and threatened the God of Justice. This is even more of a felony."
Empress Bixiao did not explain at all this time and said: "Then how should I be sentenced?"
Fang Jian said directly: "The three crimes shall be punished simultaneously. The crime shall be the crime of destroying the form by thunder and fire, and the soul shall be sent to the eighteen levels of hell to be tortured for a thousand years."
Empress Bixiao said: "Is there a fourth sin?"
Fang Jian shook his head and said, "Go back to your Majesty, there is no more."
Empress Bixiao nodded and said: "Well, I will use my merits to atone for Yu Lingfang's third crime. For the first and second crimes, I will ask Lord Hongqing to punish her according to the law."
When Fang Jian heard this, he immediately fell silent. When Empress Bixiao saw the silent Fang Jian, a proud smile appeared on her face, but it was fleeting.
The five thunder emperors looked at each other, and then shook their heads. It was obvious that Fang Jian, the judicial god, was still too young compared to these Da Luo Jinxian. hit
Taiyi Thunder Division Prime Minister Jian and the surrounding thunder generals and thunder soldiers were also a little surprised. They did not expect that the first time they saw Fang Jian deflated was here.
After a while, Empress Bixiao said again: "Fang Jian, you said this before, and it can only atone for one sin. You can't go back on your word now, can you?"
Fang Jian sighed slightly, bowed and said: "Your Majesty is right, Fang Jian will naturally not go back on her words. Your Majesty can atone for Yu Lingfang's third crime. I should only sentence Yu Lingfang's hostility and second crime according to the law." A crime."
Hearing this, Yu Lingfang also looked surprised and delighted. She immediately looked at her master, Empress Bixiao, and Empress Bixiao also blinked quickly at her eldest disciple.
Then Empress Bixiao said: "Okay, Fang Jian, please summon the redemption envoy from Taishi Immortal City, and ask you to sentence Yu Lingfang for the first and second crimes in accordance with the law."
Fang Jian bowed his hands and said, "Yes."
Later, Fang Jian passed Fu Zhao and summoned Master Meng Ling, the redemption envoy of Taishi Immortal City. After Master Meng Ling's planning, he gave a verdict of 100 million meritorious atonement. hit
Empress Bixiao was slightly startled when she heard this number, but she quickly reacted and immediately signed the Dharma book handed over by Master Meng Ling, and then directly deducted Empress Bixiao's number from the 'Tiandao Baolu' in the hands of Emperor Ziwei. One hundred million merit.
Then Fang Jian announced the punishment for Yu Lingfang, and sentenced her to thirty days of thunder whip for the first and second crimes, and sent her to Leize Prison to serve five thousand years.
Empress Bixiao was very satisfied with this result. Five thousand years was as small as dust compared to the disciple's Taoism and life, and five thousand years was just a blink of an eye for a Taiyi Golden Immortal who had attained Taoism.
Yu Lingfang was also very satisfied. After all, saving Daoxing's life from the notorious Lord Hongqing was the greatest luck.
The Thunder Emperor of the Five Directions didn't care, Yu Lingfang was punished, Empress Bixiao also used her merits to atone for her sins, the rules of heaven were implemented, and she didn't completely offend a Da Luo Jinxian. This was already the most satisfactory ending.
Therefore, just when everyone thought that this matter had ended successfully, and when Empress Bixiao was saying goodbye to the Five Thunder Emperors and preparing to return to the dojo, Fang Jian bowed his head and said, "Empress, please stay."
At this time, the atmosphere in the Taiyi Thunder Division's hall suddenly became silent, and then everyone, including Empress Bixiao, looked at Fang Jian at the same time. hit
Empress Bixiao said with a smile: "Do you have anything else to say, God of Justice?"
Immediately, Fang Jian said: "My Lady, Yu Lingfang has atoned for the sins that should be redeemed, and has been sentenced for the crimes that should be punished. Now it's time to talk about your sins, Madam."
At this moment, the whole hall was silent and extremely quiet. Even Master Meng Ling, the redeemer who was about to leave, looked at Fang Jian in shock.
Prime Minister Jian He and Lei General Lei Bing were dumbfounded, the Five Thunder Emperors looked dull, Yu Lingfang looked horrified, and Empress Bixiao looked even more confused.
After a long while, Empress Bixiao reacted and asked, "Fang Jian, what crime am I guilty of?"
Fang Jiandao: "Your Majesty, by using the power of Daluo Jinxian and the Heavenly Emperor, you interfered and interfered with the judicial gods in enforcing the laws of heaven and judging criminals, which violated Article 17 of the "Tian Tiao·Law of Immortal Officials": All immortal officials who hold high positions If a deity interferes with the fair execution of the heavenly law by using its own position and authority, especially the judicial god who interferes with the fair execution of the heavenly law, he should be punished with hundreds of thunder lashes and be punished for the crime of manipulating power and interfering with the heavenly law. The edict is issued to the three realms."
"..."hit
Everyone was silent. It turned out that the reason why Fang Jian sentenced Yu Lingfang so easily was because he wanted to show his strength to Empress Bixiao.
Empress Bixiao was also stunned and silent, and said after a long time: "Fang Jian, you are wrong. Article 17 of the Immortal Official Code is indeed like this, but it clearly says 'interfere with the Immortal Officials who are impartially enforcing the law of heaven, especially It is to interfere with the judicial gods who are impartially enforcing the laws of heaven. The focus here is on the immortal officials and judicial gods who are impartially enforcing the law. I just straightened out all the crimes of Yu Lingfang with you and guided you to a fair judgment, so I did not No laws of heaven were violated.”
Fang Jian shook his head and smiled: "Empress, do you mean that without your guidance, I would have made an unfair judgment?"
Empress Bixiao's expression tightened, she had been tricked by the god of plague. Empress Bixiao's thoughts were racing at this moment, trying hard to find a breakthrough, but Fang Jian urged at this time: "Empress, you can't answer my question. ?"
Empress Bixiao said: "Fang Jian, as we all know, no matter who violates the rules of heaven, in your hands he will exceed the punishment stipulated in the rules of heaven and be punished twice as severely, so Pindao is not worried about this, so he comes to guide you. .”
Fang Jianxiao said: "Mother, you seem to have forgotten something. Yu Lingfangchen has just captured her, and the judgment has not yet been carried out? How can you imagine and fabricate facts? How do you know that I am not going to do something that has not happened yet? I will give fair punishments, how do you know that I will exceed the punishment stipulated in the laws of heaven and punish Yu Lingfang more severely?"
"This..." Empress Bixiao was finally speechless. She knew that she had fallen into Fang Jian's plan. This crime could only be confirmed because Fang Jian was right. Yu Lingfang and Fang Jian had not yet Judgment, how do you know he will not make a fair judgment strictly in accordance with the rules of heaven? How is it okay for you to directly assert something that has not happened yet based on your previous experience? hit
"To sum up the above." Fang Jian said: "Empress Bixiao, as the God of Justice, I now declare that you have violated the laws of heaven. Please step down from Qingyun and come to the palace to accept the judgment of heaven."
Empress Bixiao finally panicked. If she was really tried by Fang Jian, then she would be the first Da Luo Jinxian in the Three Realms to be punished by Tian Tiao. This would be a huge loss of face.
Yu Lingfang lost any sense of pride at this moment. She looked at her master who was at a loss in panic, her heart sinking infinitely.
At this time, Fang Jian said again: "I must remind the empress that you have already forgiven Yu Lingfang once. According to the regulations of Taishi Xiandu, you will not be able to perform meritorious atonement in the next seven days."
After hearing this, Empress Bixiao suddenly heard a voice in her mind. That was the voice of her sister, Empress Qiongxiao.
Then Empress Bixiao suddenly became energetic, she calmed down, and then said to Fang Jian: "Fang Jian, our Da Luo has Da Luo's way of doing things, and it is not completely controlled by heaven. If you want to convict me, you must first prove it. You have the qualifications and abilities. If you can defeat me, everything will be easy for you. If you can’t defeat me, nothing will happen!"
The purpose of Empress Bixiao's words is very obvious. We Da Luo have our own way, that is, you must defeat me in a battle first, and even if the result is worse, she can take this opportunity to delay it for seven days, and then she will Then you can use your merits to atone for your sins. hit
Fang Jian said doubtfully: "Does Da Luo have this rule? Why don't I know? I'm not Da Luo, please don't lie to me."
Empress Bixiao said: "Why did Pindao lie to you? You can ask the Five Emperors."
As soon as Empress Bixiao finished speaking, Taibai Jinxing flew into the hall and reported: "The decree of the Great Emperor Juntian has arrived."
Hearing this, Empress Bixiao and the Five Thunder Emperors immediately stood up, while Fang Jian and the surrounding Thunder Gods also immediately bowed and said: "Welcome to Juntian Emperor's decree."
Taibai Jinxing unfolded the Dharma Decree and said: "The Dharma Decree of the Nine Heavens Xuanyang Yuannu Holy Mother Juntian Emperor: The Daluo Jinxian Yuanshen entrusts the way of heaven, fulfills the destiny of cause and effect, and does not commit evil deeds. Although Taoist friend Bixiao has violated the rules of heaven, his love If there are extenuating circumstances, the God of Justice will be able to absolve him of the crime at his discretion, just like the law."
This edict is equivalent to indirectly acknowledging that there are rules among Daluo Jinxian, which are not completely controlled by heaven. The edict issued by Jiutian Xuannv is also in the name of Wu Yu, so that Fang Jian should not continue to pursue it. Well, offending a Daluo Jinxian would not do him much good.
"Thank you, Great Emperor Juntian." Empress Bixiao immediately bowed her head and bowed. hit
But Fang Jian lost his temper and suddenly stood up and said: "This edict is against the laws of heaven, I refuse to obey it!"
After saying that, Fang Jian ignored the horrified looks of Taibai Jinxing and everyone else, but turned to Empress Bixiao and said: "Empress Bixiao, three days after the terrestrial calendar, I will wait for you in the chaos. The two of us will There was a fight in the chaos. If you win, I will follow Da Luo's rules and will not mention your violation of Tian Tiao. If you lose, you must be judged by Tian Tiao."
After saying that, Fang Jian chuckled and said loudly: "Mother, if you don't dare to accept it, please come down now and accept the trial."
After hearing this, Empress Bixiao finally lost the calmness and calmness of Daluo Jinxian just now, and her original violent temper immediately rose. She immediately pointed at Fang Jian and said: "What are you afraid of? Fang Jian, in three days' time See you in the chaos, I hope you won’t be afraid when the time comes, and don’t ask anyone to fight with me on your behalf.”
What Empress Bixiao is afraid of is that Da Luo from the Heavenly Court will stand up for Fang Jian and come to fight with her instead of Fang Jian, such as... Jiutian Xuannv.
When Fang Jian heard this, he immediately said loudly: "Please don't worry, Madam, Fang Jian will come to fight in person. If I don't go to Chaos in person in three days to challenge Madam...uh...to a fight! I will never mention anything that violates the rules of heaven again. "
"Okay, it's settled."
Empress Bixiao looked deeply at Fang Jian, then drove up the Qingyun Baojia, and instantly transformed into a ray of mysterious light and disappeared into the Taiyi Thunder Division Hall.
Taibai Jinxing also looked at Fang Jian and shook his head and sighed, then put away Jiutian Xuannv's decree, turned and left the Taiyi Thunder Division Hall, and returned to Lingxiao Hall to resume his life.
The Five Thunder Emperors only felt that this matter was difficult, and after taking a look at Fang Jian, they went directly to the Lingxiao Palace.
