Dongshan Park.

Inside a luxury tent.

The cold wind is howling outside and the bitter cold is biting.

A set of gray crystal heating equipment was installed in the tent, and a large number of heat-transfer wires were embedded in the thick pile carpet. The heat was continuously emitted, making the place as warm as spring.

This is exactly the treatment of a big shot.

Cheng Han thought of Qian Qingqing's beautiful face and every detail of getting along with her, and couldn't help but whisper: "Maybe it's time to give her an explanation."

When he first came to this world, his female deskmate gave him a lot of help.

Since we have known each other since childhood, how can we forget each other in the world?

As a human being, never forget your roots!

Ying Beibei stood nearby, watching the glass on the wooden table turn into a stone cup, and couldn't help but ask: "Director, did something happen just now?"

Cheng Han nodded and said, "The guard Xuanshi is here."

The female secretary couldn't help but click her tongue.

It was extremely difficult for other officials to seek an audience with the guarding Xuanshi.

But luckily for the director, the guard Xuanshi came to the door every now and then.

Cheng Han seemed to be talking to himself or asking for advice: "The guard Xuanshi hinted that some officials actually found connections with Xuange to put pressure on me. What should I do?"

】

Ying Beibei was shocked when she heard this.

She naturally understood that the matter had developed to this point and had evolved into a confrontation between the director and Xuanshi. The matter had really become serious.

Although his boss is a rare genius, his strength is not as good as Xuanshi after all. If there is a conflict between the two parties, they will probably suffer a big loss.

The female secretary moved her lips and boldly added: "Your purpose of shocking the council hall has been achieved, why not..."

The following words were not said, but it is not difficult to guess - it is better to let it go and not expand the problem further.

Cheng Han smiled and said: "The currently arrested officials will soon be escorted to Black Mountain Fort. When Xuanshi says another word, they will be released."

He shook his head: "With all my busy work, wouldn't it all be in vain?"

Ying Beibei said nothing, with a default attitude.

She felt that since Xuanshi intervened, this was the inevitable outcome.

Cheng Han sighed: "If I stop now, won't I have to watch a group of scum jumping around in front of my eyes all day long?"

The female secretary hesitated and said softly: "Director, no one can do it better than you."

Although these are words of comfort, another meaning is that accepting reality is a wiser choice.

Cheng Han stood up slowly: "Let's go to the council hall."

Ying Beibei was stunned for a moment.

Since the Administrator concurrently served as the Grand Consul, he has never set foot in the Council Hall. Why did he suddenly want to go there today?

Could it be that the Director is planning to compromise?

"Whoosh!"

The windproof curtain made of transparent resin was lifted open.

The cold air rushed in immediately.

Cheng Han took a breath of cold air, and his face showed a hint of coldness: "'Zongchang', right?"

just now.

He quietly made a deduction.

The results showed that the root cause of this incident was a mysterious scholar named "Zong Chang".

After the Omniscient Eye was promoted to level 7, his deduction ability became more powerful. Even though he had never seen the other party, he still obtained a lot of information.

Master Zongchang was promoted to Xuanshi at the age of thirty-six. He is now more than 160 years old. He has experienced more than two decades of ups and downs and is quite powerful.

So far, Zongchang has married nearly thirty wives and gave birth to no less than fifty descendants.

This is not surprising.

According to the law, Xuanshi was not limited to only five wives in his lifetime, but officially registered living spouses, with a maximum of five.

Here we need to draw an important point - living.

In other words, if one of the wives unfortunately dies, or the marriage contract is terminated by agreement between the two parties, Xuanshi can marry another one.

As for Zong Chang, who lived so long, he was particularly fond of beauty. After so many years, he had accumulated so many spouses on his personal resume.

*

Half an hour later.

Winter Garden.

Plum Blossom Building.

This two-story building was originally a residence for the Fang family's servants, but has now been transformed into a temporary prison for criminals.

The thirty-eight officials who were dismissed were all imprisoned in Meihua Building.

at this time.

Former Director of Finance, Wei Shenghao, is on trial.

"We have checked the accounts of the Finance Department. In the past ten years, at least 36,000 gold coins have gone missing."

A burly arbitrator looked at the fat middle-aged man who was handcuffed on the chair and shouted sternly: "Wei, please tell me the truth!"

Wei Shenghao looked calm and answered the question: "My cousin is married to Mr. Zongchang Xuanshi of Xuan Pavilion. You'd better be polite to me."

The arbitrator immediately choked.

Wei Shenghao's tone showed a hint of pride: "Now that a bigger figure has intervened, no matter how powerful Cheng's authority is, can it be greater than Master Xuanshi?"

"I said that you have been in the Arbitration Bureau for so long. You should know how to check the direction of the wind before doing anything, right? I advise you not to rush to take sides!"

obviously.

Although Wei Shenghao was imprisoned in Winter Garden, some powerful bureaucrats still found a way to pass the news to this guy.

The arbitrator's expression changed continuously, and finally he said: "The interrogation lasted too long this morning, let's take a quarter of an hour's rest."

This person took the lead and walked out quickly.

The other arbitrators looked at each other and then poured out of the interrogation room.

This is undoubtedly an excuse.

The real reason is that the arbitrators need to report to the deputy director immediately and discuss the next countermeasures.

If what Wei Shenghao said is true, the Arbitration Bureau should avoid getting involved in the fight between big shots, otherwise it will be shattered if not careful.

"boom!"

The door is closed.

Wei Shenghao showed a proud smile: "You bastard named Cheng, Mr. Xuanshi can crush you to death with one finger. How dare you continue to be so arrogant while riding a horse?"

The guy snorted again: "I heard that Xuange only plans to let this bastard serve as the chief consul for half a year. It seems that Xuange is not too satisfied with him.

"As long as I wait for half a year, wait for this bastard to be ousted, and then find a way to smooth things over, what's the difficulty in returning to the Finance Department?"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Right now.

Wei Shenghao suddenly discovered that in the large mirror hanging on the opposite wall, his own appearance had undergone extremely terrifying changes.

His fat face actually melted away like a candle.

Large black hairs quickly sprouted from the pores all over his body.

The former director suddenly fell into extreme panic.

What happened?

How did I become like this?

A moment later.

Wei Shenghao felt overwhelming pain, as if he had been swallowed by a monster and his body was being crushed by countless teeth.

No.

This is not physical pain.

But it comes from the extreme pain of the soul.

Wei Shenghao instinctively realized that this should be some terrifying existence that was devouring his soul and occupying his body.

He tried desperately to scream for help, but he could only make a small sound from his throat.
