The Night Patrol Office is an organization under the "Guard Office" under the Shangshutai. It is an organization responsible for patrolling and maintaining order in Yujing City at night. It has a thousand sergeants and has its own "Night Patrol Prison".

Corresponding to the Night Patrol Officer's Mansion is the Day Patrol Officer's Mansion, which has the same configuration as the Night Patrol Officer's Mansion.

As soon as Fang Jian received the imperial edict, he came to the Night Patrol School Lieutenant's Mansion to take up his post, because the edict clearly stated that he should take office on that day.

The Night Patrol Prince's Mansion, like other large-scale institutions, has a tall gate. However, the Night Patrol Prince's Mansion has a watchtower on the left and right sides of the gate.

However, Fang Jian scanned with his mind in front of the gate of the Captain's Mansion during the night patrol, and did not see anyone on duty on the watchtower. Not only the watchtower, but also no one was on duty in front of the gate of the Colonel's Mansion.

It is obviously a military agency responsible for order, but the entrance is deserted, and there are no people guarding the gate. This is in the heaven of the three worlds. If there is no one guarding the Nantian Gate, there will definitely be heads rolling to the ground.

Fang Jian calmly walked into the night patrol captain's house without questioning or blocking him because there was no one on duty.

After Fang Jian and Yu Cheng entered the Xiaowei Mansion, they walked along the main road of the Xiaowei Mansion. The Xiaowei Mansion was very large. Beyond the main road and several main halls, there were wider areas on both sides. The layout is similar to a military camp.

Fortunately, after walking a certain distance, Fang Jian finally saw someone. He saw two Hunyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian, wearing the robes of Daoting ministers, leaning casually on the jade pillars outside a main hall. Talking.

When Fang Jian and Yu Chunshuang walked down the steps of the main hall, the two ministers finally noticed Fang Jian, but they still stood there casually, but their eyes were fixed on Fang Jian and Yu Chunshuang.

Fang Jian held the appointment edict from the Shangshu Desk in his hand and walked directly up the white jade steps. He first looked up at the name of the hall, 'Changyou Hall', and then came to the front of the two ministers.

Fang Jian bowed his hands to the two ministers first, and then asked: "Are you the ministers of the night patrol school captain's house?"

When the two ministers saw Fang Jian salute to them, their faces showed no emotion and they just nodded lightly.

Seeing the two men nodding, Fang Jian immediately unfolded the edict in his hand and said, "I am the new captain of the Night Patrol Lieutenant's Mansion. My name is Fang Jian, and my nickname is Hongqing. You guys?"

Before Fang Jian finished speaking, the two ministers laughed with disdain. Then the minister on the left looked at Fang Jian and said, "You are just another scapegoat. There are some things that need not be said. Now that you are here, , you just stay here and enjoy good food and drink these few days until you die."

The minister on the right also said: "Yes, you don't need to introduce yourself. We don't need to know each other. We are just passing by."

When Yu Chunshuang heard this and saw the extremely rude behavior of the two men, he immediately stepped forward and said, "How dare you be so rude to the new captain."

"Hahaha." The two ministers laughed, and then the minister on the left said to Yuchen: "Little girl, don't be so cruel, your captain will not live for a few days."

The minister on the right said: "We didn't mean to be rude to the new captain, we just told the truth."

"You guys." Yu Chunshuang was about to continue speaking, but was interrupted by Fang Jian.

Then Fang Jian looked at the two of them and said, "No matter if I am the scapegoat or not, no matter how many days I can live, I will see all the ministers from the Night Patrol Palace at the Changyou Hall tomorrow at Mao."

Fang Jian said this and asked the two of them: "What are your names?"

Seeing how calm Fang Jian was, the two ministers couldn't help but be intimidated by his aura. Although they were still disdainful, their bodies separated from the jade pillar and stood up straight.

The two looked at each other, and then each introduced themselves to Fang Jian.

The one on the left said: "Su Kuang, a minister of the Night Patrol School Lieutenant's Office."

The one on the right said: "Night Patrol Officer Fazhen."

"Okay." Fang Jian nodded and said, "I've remembered it. Now it's up to you two to send a message to all the ministers in the Night Patrol School Lieutenant's Mansion. Tomorrow, at Mao o'clock, Mao will be lit at Changyou Hall. No absence or delay will be allowed."

After saying that, Fang Jian walked directly towards the front hall, but after taking three steps, he stopped, turned back to Su Kuang and Fazhen and asked: "How many ministers are there in the Night Patrol Captain's Mansion?"

Su Kuang said: "Twenty ministers."

Fang Jian nodded slightly, then turned around and entered Changyou Hall without looking back.

After entering Changyou Hall, Fang Jian walked to the steps of the main hall and sat down on the sandalwood chair behind the jade case on the steps.

There was a stack of scrolls on the jade desk, but Fang Jian just glanced at it and knew that the folded scrolls had not been moved for at least several months.

After Yu Chengshuang followed Fang Jian into the Changyou Hall, he saw Fang Jian sitting down in the hall and left the Changyou Hall. About half an hour later, Yu Chengshuang returned to the Changyou Hall and said to Fang Jian: "Young Master, Your home and dormitory have been tidied up and you are ready to move in now."

Fang Jian raised his head from the papers, looked at Yu Chunshuang, who had his sleeves rolled up and his hair tied up, and said, "Have you gone to find him?"

Yu Chunshuang nodded and said: "Well, the people here are very strange. I asked them anything and they ignored me. It took me a stick of incense to find the residence of the captain, but it has been sorted out now." Speaking of this, Yu Chunshuang showed a smile.

Fang Jian looked at Yu Chunshuang's heartfelt smile, and a hint of softness appeared on his originally stern face. He said to Yu Chunshuang: "Don't be in a hurry to move in. I will stay in Changyou Hall today. You go back and rest first.”

Yu Chun said: "Since the young master wants to stay in Changyou Hall, I will also serve you here."

Fang Jian said calmly: "No need, you go back and rest. This is an order."

Yu Chunshuang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled and said: "Yes, Chunshuang obeys the order."

Then Yu Chunshuang exited Changyou Hall. After Fang Jian watched Yu Chunshuang leave, he continued to sit on the sandalwood chair and look at the documents that had been accumulated for several months.

After an unknown amount of time, the sky outside gradually became dark, and the interior of Changyou Hall was also pitch black.

However, for a Hunyuan Wuji Luo Jinxian, the night does not affect the vision at all.

I don’t know how long it took, but a light suddenly lit up in the Changyou Hall. Then all the crane lanterns in the Changyou Hall were lit up, and the soft light illuminated the entire Changyou Hall in an instant.

Fang Jian raised his head, counted with his fingers and found that eight hours had passed, and it was already Yinshi the next day.

There were actually not many papers in them, but Fang Jian had to think about them while reading them, so he spent more time on them.

Fang Jian looked down into the hall and saw a gentle and charming figure in front of rows of crane lanterns on the left side of the hall. It was Yu Chunshuang.

After Yu Chunshuang lit all the crane lanterns, she turned around and came to the stairs. She said to Fang Jian solemnly: "Sir, I have found out everything about the night patrol at the captain's house."

"Huh?" Fang Jian frowned when he heard this and said, "You didn't go back to rest?"

Yu Chunshuang shook his head and said: "Gods don't need to rest. Tomorrow the young master will summon those ministers here, so I spent eight hours and visited the inside and outside of Xiaowei's Mansion, and finally found out everything about Xiaowei's Mansion. , I will report it to the Young Master now."

When Fang Jian heard this, he couldn't help but look at Yu Chunshuang with admiration. With such attitude and ability, it is rare to be able to be a first-class immortal official in the three worlds of the world.

Fang Jian immediately sat upright, then looked at Yu Chunshuang and said, "Sit down and talk."

Upon hearing this, Yu Chunshuang thanked her, then turned around and walked down the hall, moved a sandalwood chair up again, placed it in front of the desk and sat down.

Then Yu Chunshuang said: "Sir, if you want to understand what happened in the Night Patrol Captain's Mansion, you must start with the 'Wutai Regent' at Daoting."

Yu Chun Shuangdao: "The Five Regents are also called the 'Five Regents'. Because these five regents are in charge of the five most powerful pavilions in the Daoting, they are also called the 'Five Regents'. These five regents are: Taoist Masters" Terrace, Shangshu Terrace, Honglu Terrace, Zhongshu Terrace, and Yufu Terrace.”

"The five regents of Wutai, except Tai Tao Zun who is in charge of the 'Yufu Terrace', the other four regents are all Taoists of the 'Three Pure Realms'. They are the four Taoist monks with the highest Taoist practices and the greatest authority in the Xiantian Wuji Realm."

"The origins of these four Taoist Masters of the Three Pure Realms are not trivial. They are four of the 'Five Innate Masters'. The one in charge of the Taoist Master's Stand is the 'Taoist Master Taiyi', and the one in charge of the Master's Stand is the 'Taoist Master Taichu'. The person in charge of the Honglu Terrace is 'Taishi Dao Zun', and the person in charge of the central platform is 'Tai Chi Dao Zun'."

"Of course, there used to be a 'Tai Su Dao Zun', but you also know his affairs, young master, so the fifth imperial palace should have been in charge of 'Tai Su Dao Zun', but after Tai Su Dao Zun rebelled and fell, , then Tai Dao Zun is in charge, and Tai Dao Zun is only a Taoist in the Second Pure Realm, and his Taoism, prestige and power are not as good as those of the first four regents."

"But in the past five years, there was a conflict between the 'Huisheng Daojun' who was the previous Daoting and the 'Taizhu Daozun' who was in charge of the Shangshutai. The cause was that the 'Taixun Daozun' of 'Chanlaiguo' was in the process of explaining When he came to the country, he executed a disciple of Taichu Taoist Master, so Taichu Taoist Master asked the Lord Huisheng Daojun to send troops to attack Taixun Taoist Master."

"But Taoxun Taoist Taichu's daughter is the 'holy queen' of Taoist Master Huisheng, and Taoist Taoist Taichu's disciple has indeed done evil in the country of Chanlai, so Mr. Huisheng Daojun does not allow this memorial."

"So after five years of struggle between Taichu Dao Zun and Huisheng Dao Lord and Taixun Dao Zun, Taichu Dao Zun received the support of Taishi Dao Zun and Tai Dao Zun, in the name of 'immoral and chaotic government' , entered the palace, deposed and executed the 'Holy Queen'."

"Although the Holy Queen is from the country of Chanlai, she is the official wife of Huisheng Daojun. Therefore, after the Holy Queen was executed, Huisheng Daojun secretly issued an edict, preparing to summon the four Taoist countries to raise troops to attack Taoist Taichu. But this edict It was intercepted by Taichu Dao Zun, Huisheng Dao Lord saw that the plot was leaked, so he hurriedly summoned the palace officials to rush out of the 'Dao Dao Palace' and called on everyone to attack Taichu Dao Zun."

"Later, the chaos in the Daoting court was put down by Tao Zun Taichu. Hui Sheng Dao Jun died of illness after that. The new Dao Jun came to the throne, which is Hui Sheng Dao Jun's younger brother, now Yuande Dao Jun. Jun'."

After listening to the statement, Fang Jian couldn't help but ask: "This incident sounds indeed shocking, but what does this have to do with the night patrol school captain's mansion?"

"It has a lot to do with it." Yu Chunshuang said: "I just mentioned that Huisheng Daojun hurriedly summoned the palace warriors to come out of Dao Palace to attack Taoist Taichu. In fact, not all of these people were executed after the chaos. "

Fang Jian understood immediately after hearing this, "You mean, some of the palace sergeants who followed Dao Lord Huisheng to attack Dao Lord Taichu that day were sent to patrol the captain's mansion that night?"

"Yes." Yu Chunshuang said solemnly: "The reason why these people were not executed is not because Taichu Dao Zun was soft-hearted, but because when Dao Lord Huisheng summoned them, he had asked Dao Lord in the name of Dao Lord The 'Xiantian Yuanshi Treasure Seal' swore that each of these people who followed him would be given 'Thirty Pardon Orders'."

Fang Jian asked: "What do you mean?"

Yu Chunshuang explained: "The pardon order is a privilege granted by Dao Lord to others through the innate Yuanshi treasure seal in the name of Dao Lord. A pardon order can exempt a 'death penalty'. For example, if a person is granted a pardon order, even if He assassinated Lord Dao himself, so he can also be absolved with this pardon."

Fang Jian asked doubtfully: "Then how will this pardon be fulfilled?"

Yu Chunshuang said: "This is the power of the 'Innate Yuanshi Treasure Seal'. Anyone who has been given a pardon cannot be killed before the pardon on him is exhausted. If you kill him by force, then you No matter how much power you have on your body, the Innate Yuanshi Seal will clear it all out in an instant."

Fang Jian's face condensed and he asked again: "What if there is no more general trend? Do we owe the innate Yuanshi Treasure Seal 'big trend'?"

Yu Chunshuang shook his head and said: "No, if there is no general trend in you, then go back and reduce the first level of Taoism. For example, the level of Three Pure Levels can be reduced to the Second Level of Pure Level, and the Second Level of Pure Level can be reduced to the First Level of Pure Level."

Hearing this, Fang Jian suddenly realized and said: "This is a trap set by Huisheng Daojun for Taoist Taichu, and it is also a method to disgust Taoist Taichu."

"Yes." Yu Chunshuang said: "Fortunately, Tao Zun Taichu did not personally take action on the chaos that day, but I heard that several of Tao Zun Tao Chu's disciples and capable subordinates suffered heavy losses and suffered huge losses."

Fang Jian sighed slightly when he heard this, and said: "So, the remaining sergeants who were given the 'pardon order' by Daojun Huisheng, Daojun Taichu did not dare to kill them, so they could only be assigned to the Night Patrol Lieutenant's Mansion."

Yu Chunshuang nodded and said: "Yes, Tao Zun Taichu's purpose of sending them to the Night Patrol School Lieutenant's Mansion is to slowly consume the pardon orders on them, and then execute them after the pardon orders are consumed."

But Fang Jian asked again: "But there is another point. Since the pardon order is in hand, Taichu Taoist dare not take action himself, why not let others do it? Just reward them afterwards and compensate them for their great efforts."

Yu Chun said: "This is related to another effect of the pardon order, which is 'jointness'. This matter arose due to the conflict between Taichu Dao Zun and Huisheng Dao Lord. If these people die before the pardon order is exhausted, Death, even if Taichu Dao Zun does not personally do it or signal it, he will be punished by the amnesty order and the reduction of the general trend."

Yu Chunshuang added: "As we all know, the general trend is very important. For these Three Pure Realm masters, the general trend is even more important. Even a small gap will lead to a disadvantage in the struggle with other Three Pure Realm masters. That’s why Taichu Dao Zun treats these talents with such caution.”

Fang Jian nodded. This is indeed disgusting. The purpose of Huisheng Daojun has been achieved. Taoist Taichu should be disgusted.
