Chapter 92: The Battle to Defend the Courtyard [Please give me a monthly ticket! ]

In Liang Yue's room, the three little ones held a meeting again.

But Liang Xiaoyun looked listless and her discomfort seemed to be getting worse.

But after Liang Peng helped her to detect her meridians, he found that she did not feel any Qi. It seems that having two Qi cultivators in one family is just wishful thinking.

However, Liang Xiaoyun herself had a good attitude and was not disappointed. She continued to discuss the matter of the Enlightenment Tree.

"First of all!" Liang Yue, as the eldest brother, spoke first, "We must first determine whether it is possible to protect this tree. If we can't, we might as well give it away in exchange for some other rewards, rather than inviting disaster in the future."

After some thought, Liang Peng said, "It is possible, because the treasures of the Ten Great Immortals have the ability to shield the secrets of heaven. Even if someone uses secret divination, they can only deduce a general range at most, and it is impossible to pinpoint our family. In the capital of the gods, no one will dig deep to search."

Liang Yue nodded slightly.

This can be seen from previous events.

Both Jiuyang and Yinchao had great men who discovered that there were secret treasures hidden in the earth veins, but they could not confirm that this was the Enlightenment Tree, let alone locate it accurately. The best they could do was to deduce a large area south of Longyuan City, and they did not even know whether it was inside or outside the city.

Even if he was the emperor, it was impossible for him to conduct a carpet search of such a large area, including half of the divine capital, just because of a false finding.

The national teacher Li Longchan could only think of a method to gather the earth veins in a large formation.

The ability to block the secrets of heaven is indeed the inherent power of the spiritual treasures in the world.

Otherwise, an immortal species of the level of the Enlightenment Tree would be so attractive to even those high and mighty gods and immortals that it would not have the chance to be born now, as its position would have been deduced and circled long ago.

Liang Xiaoyun also said: "We can add some camouflage to it later, so that even if someone accidentally sees it, it will not attract attention."

"This is feasible." Liang Peng said: "Except for some practitioners, most people would not recognize this tree even if they saw it in person."

"Okay." Liang Yue made the decision: "Then we must protect this enlightenment tree!"

Ranked first among the top ten immortal species and second on the list of immortal objects.

The temptation of the Enlightenment Tree was so great that even though the three little ones were very cautious, they couldn't help but take the risk and try it.

The magic of the Enlightenment Tree may not be so direct, but having it represents the practitioners in the family, whose future potential is immeasurable.

It’s exciting just thinking about it.

"The next problem is that we are about to move, but this tree cannot be moved." Liang Yue said slowly, "We have to solve this problem."

"We must ask the Ministry of Industry to revoke its decision." Liang Peng said firmly.

Liang Xiaoyun asked, "Can we contact the neighbors and resist like we did last time?"

"This is part of the struggle between the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Justice. They just want us to make a fuss. If the matter gets out of hand, they can pin the blame on the Ministry of Justice. So it's useless for us to make a fuss." Liang Yue said, "They just hope that the matter will get worse and worse."

"It's not okay to mention this matter directly." Liang Peng said, "Brother, if you plead with the prince directly, you may have a chance to bypass Ping'an Alley, but if you insist on this place too much, it will be easy for people to find out."

"It is indeed too direct to bring it up. People might find something wrong." Liang Yue said thoughtfully, "Besides, the Ministry of Industry supports the Sixth Prince, so it is even less likely to give face to the Crown Prince."

Liang Xiaoyun said at the right time: "It would be best if the person who issued this decree fell from power, then the previous orders would easily be shelved and forgotten."

"We don't have the ability to kill high-ranking officials in the court, so it would be best if the Ministry of Works could be completely overthrown by the Ministry of Justice within these three months." Liang Peng said.

Hearing this, Liang Yue glanced at him lightly and said, "Even if we have the ability, we can't just kill people for the treasure."

He also knew that this was unrealistic and Liang Peng would not really do it.

But he is a Qi Refiner after all, and may become a powerful person in the world in the future. If he develops such a thinking habit, it will be very dangerous.

Even though it was hard to find a good person in the Ministry of Industry, the specific crime still needed to be determined, and not everyone deserved to die. If you kill someone who shouldn't die for the sake of treasure, this is no different from the devil.

After a little hesitation, he felt that he should remind his brother in time and nip this sign of deviation in the bud.

"Yes." Liang Peng did not refute.

"Then can we only pin our hopes on others?" Liang Xiaoyun said with a little concern.

"Perhaps..." Liang Yue suddenly raised his eyes, his gaze as bright as a torch, "If you want to bring down the Ministry of Industry, we can also help!"

……

In the struggle between the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Works, small figures like them naturally cannot intervene. Liang Yue said this because he still remembered something that happened before.

At that time, the grandson of the Minister of Works Lu Yuanwang came to see Mrs. Zhang and said that the evidence collected by Zhang Xingkai was something that the emperor was very taboo about, and the Ministry of Works was obviously very afraid that the evidence would be leaked.

But Mrs. Zhang didn't know where those things were.

If they could find the evidence, they might be able to deal a fatal blow to the precarious Ministry of Works.

Although it seems a little slim at the moment, Liang Yue thinks this is a direction that can be worked on. Since Zhang Xingkai has collected these things, he must hope that they can appear in the world. He just needs to find some clues.

However, I have to find a reason to get back involved in the Ministry of Industry case first, and this requires careful consideration.

the next day.

Liang Yue had already made an appointment in advance to report to the Zhuxie Yamen in the morning and to the Eastern Palace in the afternoon.

One good thing about the Evil Punishment Department is that it is very free. There is no fixed duty time in the government office. If there is a task, you can go at any time. If there is nothing, you can also not go for a few days.

Therefore, Liang Yue did not have to report for duty early in the morning like he did when he was in the Imperial Capital Guard.

It took him quite some time to walk from the south to the north of the city. When he arrived at the gate of the government office, the doorman was still the fat old man with rosacea as last time.

Liang Yue had come here several times now, and he had come in with Chen Su before. The doorman would not stop him even if he didn't look at the badge, and would just doze off there.

As soon as you enter the door, the space is still open and bright.

Nearby, there are green tiles and white eaves, and a large courtyard. In the distance, there are pavilions and towers with painted roofs, and the aura is dense, which really feels like a corner of a fairy mountain in the world.

When Xie Wenxi heard that he was coming, he had already been waiting in the main hall. Several free young people were also in the hall.

"Thank you, Master." Liang Yue bowed and said as he entered the room, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"No problem." Xie Wenxi smiled kindly, "You came from the south of the city, the journey is long, it is normal for you to be late. If we don't have anything urgent to do in the Evil Extermination Division, we don't need to come too early."

"I was thinking about learning a light skill suitable for long-distance travel yesterday, so that I can travel faster." Liang Yue said with a smile.

Wen Yifan beside him looked thoughtful and said slowly: "You can practice, but... why don't you just raise a horse?"

"Ah?" Liang Yue was stunned, then slapped his forehead.

I was really stumped by her question.

This is a habit he has developed with poor thinking.

In a place like Zhongzhou, the cost of raising a horse is often more expensive than raising a person, especially in the capital city of Shendu.

Therefore, in the minds of ordinary people like the Liang family, there is basically no concept of raising horses. If the family needs horses or cars, they can just go to the alley entrance to rent them.

Yesterday, when he found himself needing to run a long distance, his first reaction was to just run faster.

But after hearing what his senior sister said, he realized it.

Actually, you don’t have to use your own legs, right?
With his current wealth, he should be able to afford to buy a better horse and feed it every day. In fact, all the court officials who did not live in the north of the city were like this. The cost of maintaining a carriage was much cheaper than buying a house in the north of the city.

I can only say that I'm used to being poor.

"If we were in the north, I would just give you a mount. Unfortunately, monsters are not allowed into the Divine Capital." Shang Yunhai said with a smile.

"Oh, I want one too!" Qiao Caiwei also said with a smile, "Then we'll go to the Northland to play with you. Senior Brother Shang can have one each, and we can't be partial."

"I want one too..." Wei Ping'er said weakly in the corner.

"Da Qiao, Wei Jiu, please don't make things difficult for Senior Brother Shang." Li Mo patted Shang Yunhai's shoulder, "How can Senior Brother Shang take out so many at once? Just give one to Liang Yue and me."

"Shameless." Da Qiao glared at him.

Everyone chatted and laughed, which alleviated Liang Yue's embarrassment a lot.

The Zhuxie Yamen is full of young people of similar age, and all of them come from the Xuanmen sect. The atmosphere is indeed more lively than that of other Yamen in the court.

After chatting for a while, Xie Wenxi called Liang Yue out alone and walked with him in the courtyard of the yamen, both to let him familiarize himself with the environment and to give him some advice.

The path behind the courtyard is deep and secluded, with lush flowers and trees on both sides and bees and butterflies flying around.

"Mr. Chen is not here, he left some words for you." Xie Wenxi said: "You know almost nothing about the court, and now you have stepped into the palace, there will inevitably be risks. Your master is not reliable, so you must be more careful in everything."

Liang Yue looked serious and listened attentively.

As for the discrimination against the master, he pretended not to hear it. After all, Chen Su was not the only one who discriminated against Wang Rulin in Xuanmen, and the master himself would never take it seriously.

"The prince must have recruited you with the intention of making friends with the Zhuxie Division. You can participate in the fight for the throne in the court, but the Zhuxie Division cannot have any position. As long as you don't commit crimes, Mr. Chen can protect you at any time. But it is impossible for the Zhuxie Division to help you in the officialdom." Xie Wenxi said as soon as he opened his mouth.

The position of the crown prince's tutor has no real power, and is basically a reserve of talent around the crown prince. If he ascends the throne in the future, these will be his first batch of people.

Therefore, anyone who gets the position will be labeled as a die-hard supporter of the prince.

But Liang Yue also holds the position of the Evil Execution Department, which makes it easy for people to make associations. Chen Su's words are undoubtedly a warning to him not to use the name of the Evil Execution Department when he goes out.

But it also shows that the Evil Extermination Division can protect Liang Yue's safety.

This should be the promise Chen Su made to every Xuanmen disciple in the yamen, and Liang Yue is no exception.

It's like the boundaries of advance and retreat have been drawn for him in advance.

"I know." Liang Yue nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"Also, remember to be upright and don't bring shame to the Xuan Sect." Xie Wenxi also said seriously, "The darkness in the court is like a quagmire. Once you are stained with it, it will be difficult to escape. If you ever become involved in corruption, Mr. Chen will clean up the mess himself, and your master will not be able to protect you."

"Absolutely not." Liang Yue said firmly.

"Very good." Xie Wenxi finally smiled again. "We are all optimistic about your character. Do you have anything else you want to ask?"

Liang Yue blinked and asked, "Can I bring two people with me when I enter the Evil Execution Division?"
