Chapter 313 Faceless Meeting
The selection of officials in the Dayan court is like this:
During the big exam, the official office organizes registration for the exam. Many people who are interested in becoming officials choose the government office they want to join or the local government office and go to the exam at the time.
Exams include literary and martial exams. The so-called literary exam refers to the writing of questions and articles based on the corresponding examination functions of the monks who register. It is probably about how to carry out work and what to do after joining the job. The so-called martial exams naturally depend on cultivation and actual combat.
For some official positions, the proportion of literary examinations is a little larger, such as some government officials who coordinate tax calculations. For those who are responsible for the law and arrest of the Tingwei Mansion, the proportion of literary examinations is very small, and the proportion of martial examinations is a little larger.
The official office will arrange vacant positions according to the examination results.
Aspiring people like Lu Wenen may be dissatisfied with the vacant positions arranged by the official office. If you want to have higher requirements, you will make requirements for a certain official position after passing the exam.
The Office of the Official Affairs Office will approve this and whether to agree. Once it agrees, it will arrange for the person sitting in that position to compete with the challenger, which is also divided into literary and military tests.
This is the whole process.
Of course, the first few items of the entire process are probably carried out every time you select an official. The so-called "challenge" link below is not. There is nominal means to become a high-ranking official, and even theoretically, through this method, you can directly become the prime minister.
But in actual operation... unless the exchange of interests has been reached in some political transactions, or some of the above-mentioned majors have already been formulated, the official office will directly reject such a challenge application, and will not even give a chance to challenge.
The reason why Lu Wenen was able to pass the challenge of the civil and military test, defeating the previous left supervisor of the court and replacing the other party's position must have been the care of some people.
Let’s not mention this part of the concern. The challenge and victory are always obvious.
After becoming the left supervisor of the Tingwei, the current Tingwei Guan Leping met Lu Wenen, and was polite and distant.
The Guan family represented by Guan Leping is also one of the four major families in Yandu and is a supporter of the crown prince Li Xuanhao. However, compared with the other Zhang family and Zhao family, the Guan family did not have a high degree of support for the crown prince. In a sense, it is more neutral.
Otherwise, as the court lieutenant, if Guan Leping really insisted on being too regular, even if Lu Wenen finished the challenge process and refused to let him in, the matter would be very difficult to deal with.
This kind of thing didn't happen either.
After all, if you do that, it would be equivalent to offending the Lu family to death and pushing the Lu family to the prince with all your might.
Earlier, the Lu family did not directly accept the official position given by Prince Li Chengzong, which made Li Xuanhao's faction feel that the Lu family could fight for it. At this time, of course, it would not do anything to force the Lu family to the opposite side.
After becoming the left supervisor of the Tingwei, Lu Wenen began to do things very seriously.
Logically speaking, when he arrived at this position, investigated cases and arrested people, he didn't need to do anything about these things. Even though the director of the arresting department did not obey him, he was directly responsible to the Tingwei himself, but his nominal position was not as high as his.
But Lu Wenen doesn't care about so much.
After taking office, he directly arranged all the many monks who came from Feiyunzhou to join the Tingwei Mansion. This power is still available. After all, these Qingfeng monks and several Lu family monks generally only have the level of practicing Qi and building foundations, but they are not high-ranking officials. It is easy to pass the exam. It is no problem to join the arresting office as a constable.
Then, he took these people, plus a few locals who had no foundation in the arrest office, and began to "do something random".
In the eyes of many people in the Tingwei Mansion, the newly appointed Tingwei Zuojian is just doing it.
Where is there a noble court officer who doesn’t care about other important matters, and leads a group of people to investigate cases and arrest people every day. What’s the matter?
However, most people in the Tingwei Mansion were happy to see this.
Many people were quite scared. A new left-level supervisor of the Tingwei will break the original power balance of the Tingwei Mansion. Although Lu Wenen has no foundation, after all, some people will be worried about the position here.
As a result, if this person does not fight for power or seize profits, he will focus on investigating the case. Many people are very happy. If you can give convenience to others, you should work hard. As long as you, the left supervisor, are happy and don’t come to manage the power of the government department, then everything will be easy.
But who would have thought that this Left Principal had such a big deal today?
When Lu Wenen led his team back to the arresting office and put all the unconscious Zhao Siwei and the dejected Zhao Siwei who had walked over into the cell, the entire arresting office was in chaos.
Just now, when he walked out of the prison of the arrest department, Lu Wenen looked at a man wearing a black python robe, stepping on an iron chain, and flew in panic.
"The King's Office." Wen En greeted.
The person who came was named Wang Sheng, who was the director of the arresting office and a monk on the second floor of Qiming.
Wang Sheng had a bitter expression on his face: "My ancestor... Lord Zuo Jian, why did you arrest Zhao Siwei?"
"He violates national laws, why can't he be arrested?"
"What did he do?"
"Is it counting to plunder and force a low-level female cultivator?"
"Don't everyone say that he plays voluntarily?"
"After I investigated, this is not the case. We have already obtained a lot of evidence that he forced and threatened many female cultivators."
"Oh..." Wang Sheng said in a low voice, "It's a sin to play with a few female cultivators like Zhao Siwei... Lord Left Supervisor, just listen to me and let the person go... If you have any shortcomings, you can take this opportunity to ask them for some of the Zhao family, which doesn't matter much, but don't really cause any trouble."
"Director Wang, this is a bad statement. He violates the national law and punishes him. What does this have to do with his identity? Don't say more. Just Director Wang does his own thing well. If something else will cause trouble here, Lu will take it with all his strength."
There was no choice but to leave.
Lu Wenen looked at his back, stared at him for a short moment, and then turned back to the prison.
From Wang Sheng's hurried words, he also felt that it was only the beginning of his capture of Zhao Siwei. When he took action, there would be great trouble, and in the foreseeable days, it would follow one after another.
He didn't know if he could withstand it, nor did he know if the so-called prince's lineage would help him with it. Even his immediate superior, Tingwei Guan Leping, was still in ally with Zhao. If the Tingwei spoke in person, it would be very difficult for him to resist the situation.
It seems that if you don’t know how long Zhao Siwei can be detained, you have to try your best to hurry up.
...
"Junior Brother Lu, why are you back? Zhao Siwei will not wake up until tomorrow..." The person guarding the prison was a Qingfeng Sect monk.
"I can't wait for tomorrow." Lu Wenen said, "I'm going to wake him up in advance."
"Young brother has a solution?" The man was a little surprised.
He himself is also a wood-attribute monk, proficient in medicine, good at nourishing meridians and body. It is precisely because of this that he was assigned to visit Gu Zhao Siwei.
In his opinion, Zhao Siwei had been absorbed too much before. He didn't know how Lu Wenen did it. He vaguely felt that the martial arts performed by Lu Wenen were very special and different.
At least, in Feiyunzhou, there is no second person who can perform such a wooden exercise.
This lack of life origin is the main reason why Zhao Siwei is unconscious at the moment, and it is also the reason why he cannot solve it. At least, he, a foundation-building monk with wood attribute, cannot handle this matter. Even if Qi Ming is gone, he feels that he can't do it. This can only be waited for Zhao Siwei to recover and wake up, and then he is expected to have a great loss in the future.
However, he had no choice, Lu Wenen had a solution.
Just send the sucked life source and quality back. He has learned the fortune and is a very good healing physician himself.
This process of sucking out and sending it back will cause secondary damage to Zhao Siwei. What's more, this kind of life source that is re-injected is actually not Zhao Siwei's own. The process of sucking it back will make his damage even worse.
Wen En didn't do this before, the most important thing was that he felt a little unbearable, afraid that Zhao Siwei would be able to wake up early under the stimulation of the source of life, but he couldn't live for too long.
But now it seems that there is no need to take care of these things.
Standing beside Zhao Siwei, who was lying on the ground, Lu Wenen's wooden spiritual power gradually transformed into the source of life and was input into Zhao Siwei's body. The leisurely green light wrapped Zhao Siwei's body.
Soon, Zhao Siwei, who was in a coma, had a thin bone Lin Chai, bulged up in a very short time like a balloon filled with air, and even looked fatter than before, as if he was swollen. At the same time, his face turned red from the previous pathological pale paleness.
But it is obvious that this state is not normal. However, Zhao Siwei himself woke up slowly.
"Lu Wen'en..." His voice was a little strange, with a little crying. When he heard this, Zhao Siwei was shocked.
Then, he also felt that his life was extremely prosperous in his body, as if there was a sense of anger, holding it in his heart and having nowhere to vent.
"You're about to die." Lu Wenen's unfeeling voice came into Zhao Siwei's ears.
"What did you do to me?" Zhao Siwei looked frightened.
Although he didn't know what was going on inside his body, it was obviously unusual.
He sat up from the ground, leaning against the corner of the wall, trembling.
"I can keep you alive, but what do I ask and what do you answer."
"Don't think about it!"
Lu Wenen didn't talk much nonsense. While raising his hand, he continued to transform the wood spiritual power into the alien life source and input it into Zhao Siwei's body, he asked emotionally: "Four years ago, the Lu family was attacked by Fan Jue, was it the Zhao family's commander?"
"No!" Zhao Siwei decisively denied.
"To be honest." Lu Wenen continued to increase the input of life source qualities.
During the years he became the left supervisor of the court, Lu Wenen seemed to have been arresting people and investigating cases in various ways, but in essence, his most important goal has not been forgotten - investigating the attacks that year.
In Yan State, there is a force that can mobilize such a powerful team of dead soldiers, and also has malicious intentions towards the Lu family and directly took an attack. This incident itself is quite chilling.
The key is that the other party is still completely hidden under the water.
Of course, we have to find out this matter first. Lu Wenen came to Yandu, entered the court, and worked in the Tingwei Mansion, essentially to figure out the matter.
Not to mention, after entering the Tingwei Mansion, the entire country and all parties have summarized the cases. Lu Wenen was really eye-opening about the darkness under the light of Yan State.
Feiyunzhou is still too pure. With Feiyunzhou above, the major families below firmly control the place. Combining the two, at most there will be only some scattered bandits to survive, and it is difficult to breed too much darkness - if it is not included in the small and medium-sized families themselves.
I think it is probably a similar situation within the direct jurisdiction of Yunxiao Sect. Yunxiao Sect is much stronger than Qingfeng Sect, and they should have stronger control over directly under the jurisdiction.
But the places where the imperial court has a greater influence are another matter.
In these dark sides, Lu Wenen caught the tail of an organization called "Faceless Meeting".
It is said that this is a very secret organization, even in the underground world of monks, it is very low-key. Few people know them, but everyone who has heard of them is very secretive about it, for fear that they will be silenced if they say a few more words.
Later, Lu Wenen wasted two years and caught a member who was said to be a faceless meeting.
From that person, he learned that the organizational structure of the Wuyinghui was very secretive. He only knew how to contact his upper and lower lines, but he did not know their true identities. However, he had met Zhao Siwei in a hurry.
Before Lu Wenen could ask for more information, the man's face suddenly became frightened. He didn't spit out a word anymore, and his whole body began to burn from the inside out, making Lu Wenen unable to save him and directly burned to ashes.
This method is exactly the same as what happened after the battle when the Lu family's caravan was attacked.
I think it was this person who suddenly disappeared and was discovered by his online search, and then he decisively activated the ban in this person's body and wiped out the mouth.
Although he didn't ask more, Lu Wenen at least knew this clue from Zhao Siwei.
This is also the biggest reason why he directly sold Zhao Siwei today.
As for the so-called "coercion of female cultivators", although Zhao Siwei did do it, he obviously prefers it as an excuse.
Chapter completed!
