Regulation starts at night

Chapter 131

Tangning ignored Zhou Tong who was kneeling and begging for mercy, and didn't care about the exclamation of the crowd, just walked towards Xue Xingchuan.

"General Xue, within the court, if a subordinate official works for the demons, how should the official in charge be punished?"

Although Xue Xingchuan didn't want to answer, under Tangning's pressure, he had no choice but to speak up.

"Returning to Dean Tang, according to Zhou's law, once any government-affiliated organization discovers a lurking devil's secret work, the officials of the organization, no matter how big or small, will be locked up and taken to the Clean Officials Department. After being reviewed by the chief official of the Clean Officials Department , if the matter is true, the official in charge is guilty of the same crime as the devil's spy."

Tangning nodded, then looked at Zhou Tong who was still prostrate on the ground, who was afraid to get up, and asked.

"If the devil's secret agent is an official of the Qing Dynasty, how should he deal with it?"

Xue Xingchuan was silent. Seeing Tang Tranquility waiting quietly, he sighed.

"There is no subdivision above the law of the week, and this general can't talk nonsense."

Tangning smiled slightly. He knew that Xue Xingchuan was still thinking about his brotherhood, trying to excuse Zhou Tong.

Tangning didn't care. In other words, even if the Holy Empress was here, he wouldn't care.

As for entering God's Capital and never having an audience with the Holy Queen, it's not that Tangning is afraid.

It's just because he has nothing to say, and there is no reason why he must see the Holy Queen.

Since there is no reason, naturally there is no need to practice it.

He understood the intention of Xue Xingchuan sent by the Holy Empress, so he did not intend to execute Zhou Tong in public.

Tangning didn't care about keeping Zhou Tong alive for a while, because he wanted Zhou Tong to die. No matter where Zhou Tong was, even in the palace, he would definitely die.

Xue Xingchuan looked into Tangning's calm eyes, hesitated for a moment, then took a step forward, intending to kneel down on one knee.

But in front of Tangning, he didn't want to accept the ceremony, so General Xue couldn't kneel down.

"You want to save his life, but you never thought that maybe one day, he will kill you with his own hands. For example, if you can only live with one of you, guess how he will choose?"

Xue Xingchuan frowned, and glanced at Zhou Tong who raised his head quietly. He saw the longing in Zhou Tong's eyes, and saw his thoughts clearly, but Xue Xingchuan was not angry, but only a little emotional.

"If Dean Tang's words are true, Xue is willing to..."

Tangning interrupted Xue Xingchuan's words by raising her hand, and said with a smile, "Your life is very precious, because your life doesn't belong to you alone. It's very easy to kill people, and it's also very simple to kill a great general with military exploits."

"But killing a general who is willing to die for the world, just to keep a person who does nothing and is blinded by profit, is really stupid. Does the general think that I am stupid, or that the Holy Empress is stupid?"

Xue Xingchuan kept silent, and Tangning didn't intend to say any more. With a wave of his right hand, the demon minion behind the crowd came to him in an instant.

"It's you! It's you! It's you!"

The man came to Tangning and suddenly burst out laughing.

When Tang Ning frowned, the devil's spy said fiercely again, "You're going to die! You're going to die! You're going to die!"

"I'm very curious. Six years ago, I saw a Mozu spy in Wenshui. At that time, he intended to poison the old Mrs. Tang, but unfortunately I saw through it. After that, the man turned evil and tried to kill me. "

"It's a pity that although his strength has reached the initial stage of gathering stars, he is still too weak after all. It's just that when he was dying, he was as crazy as you. I asked myself that since I was born, I have never spread it to the world. Why does the clan hate me so much, so much that they have no fear in the face of death?"

"You want to know? No, I won't tell you!"

Tang Ning frowned, Xue Xingchuan also looked gloomy, and silently tightened the long knife in his hand.

"You want to hide something from me, don't you think it's a little too big?"

"Haha, I know your cultivation level is advanced, and I understand that the strength you showed today is just the tip of the iceberg. Unfortunately, no matter how strong you are, you can't escape the inevitable death situation!"

Seeing the affirmation on the face of Mozu, Tangning pondered silently.

He couldn't figure it out, since the members of the Demon Race knew that their strength was far from that, how could they dare to make such an assertion?

He could see that the demon clan's secret work in front of him was not a bluff, nor was it trying to save their lives. Then, where did their confidence come from?

black robe?No, although the black robe is not weak, but in the original book, her cultivation can be easily abolished by Wang Zhice, and her strength can also be imagined.

Devil?No, judging from the original book, the Demon Lord is suffering from old wounds at the moment, and even though he may have entered the hidden world, he still does not pose the slightest threat to him.

If it's not the Demon Lord, then who is it?He didn't think that there were other people in the Demon Race who could pose a threat to him.Could it be that within the demon clan, there are still secrets hidden that I don't know?

Tangning thought for a moment, watching the devil's spy laughing like crazy, ignoring his eyes that were so vicious that it would scare the timid to death.

Stretching out his right hand, his white and slender five fingers slowly closed.

Following Tangning's actions, the demon's mouth was slowly closed.

When Tangning closed her palms into a fist, the chilling laughter finally disappeared beside her ears.

Tangning nodded towards Xue Xingchuan, and walked towards He Ping and Hao Yun with her hands behind her back.

And the Demon Clan's secret work also rose up straight from the ground, always floating behind Tangning.

"General Xue, please tell the Holy Empress that tonight, in the Baicao Garden, Tang will hold a banquet with wine, waiting for a gathering."

Xue Xingchuan nodded silently, turned on Hong Yunlin, and walked away on Hongxia.

Watching the two leave, Zhou Tong stood up straight, his eyes watching Tangning's leaving back, full of fear.

He is a person who forgets righteousness for profit and is obsessed with power, but he is also an extremely smart person.

Tang Ning, as the dean of the academy registered in the state religion, although he did not hold an official title in the court, he is still equivalent to the archbishop of the state religion.

Regardless of his cultivation as high as the holy realm, this alone is beyond Zhou Tong's comparison.

Zhou Tong is very afraid of death, he doesn't want to resign himself to fate.He knew that the banquet in Baicao Garden tonight would be the time to decide his life and death.

And as the loyal lackey of the Holy Empress, he also believed that the Holy Empress could not give up on him.

But the Sacred Heart is unpredictable, and Zhou Tong doesn't like taking risks.Therefore, he decided to enter the palace to face the saint now.

Zhou Tong believed that as long as he reported the news he got from the demons to the Holy Empress, he would be able to live.

As for the hatred between him and Tangning, Zhou Tong never thought of revenge, or in other words, he was completely incapable of revenge.

It's just that since hatred is born, it will naturally not disappear.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tong got on his horse, quickly returned to the capital, and rushed towards the Great Zhou Palace.

He knew that Tangning ignored him, but it didn't mean he could escape.

Anyway, he didn't want to just run away.He still likes this kind of desire for power to control human life and decide life and death.

In the court hall of the imperial palace, the Holy Empress heard Xue Xingchuan's words.She didn't respond aloud, but turned around and looked at Xue Xingchuan who was kneeling and bowing his head.
