After Fang Jian stood still at the foot of the imperial steps, Wen Shizhen asked, "Do any of the ministries and departments have any important reports that need to be reported to the Grand Envoy today?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads. Only Taixuan Envoy Pinghan Zhenren said, "Zhenren Dushengshi, I have a report from Beitian Prefecture. I wonder if it is necessary to report it to the Grand Envoy."
Upon hearing this, Master Wenshi immediately asked Master Pinghan, "What's the matter?"
Immortal Pinghan took out a report from the Northern Heavenly Palace and said, "The newly appointed Heavenly Sovereign of the Northern Heavenly Palace, Tonghe Heavenly Sovereign, has reported that demon tribes from various states in Northern Julu Continent have recently gathered in large numbers. The Northern Heavenly Palace is dispatching personnel to monitor them day and night, but I wonder what these demon tribes are planning."
Master Wenshi said, "Submit the report."
At this time, a boy stepped forward quickly, took the report from Master Pinghan, and then handed it to Master Wenshi.
Master Wenshi opened the report and took a closer look before nodding and saying, "This matter should be reported to the Grand Envoy."
After saying this, he raised his hand and waved it, and the jade chime in the hall immediately emitted nine clear, melodious, and ethereal sounds.
The next moment, a mysterious light with nine-colored clouds floated down from the third step of the Taixuan Palace. Then, the Nine-Sky Mysterious Lady, dressed in a black imperial robe, rode on a auspicious cloud and landed on the third step, while the boy Qingyan stood respectfully beside the auspicious cloud.
"Greetings to the Great Envoy." The moment the Queen Mother of the West landed, everyone in the hall immediately bowed and paid homage. Fang Jian also turned around and bowed deeply.
The Lady of the Nine Heavens first nodded to Fang Jian, who was standing beside her, and then said to Master Wenshi, "Present the memorial."
The boy Qingyan immediately walked down the steps, took the memorial from the hands of the real person Wenshi, and then presented it to the Queen Mother of the West.
The Lady of the Nine Heavens took the memorial and glanced at it. A glint of divine light flashed in her clear eyes. She then raised her hand and used her magical power to return the memorial to Master Wenshi, saying, "Send it back to Beitian Mansion."
"I obey the order." Master Wenshi bowed and accepted the order.
When the memorial was sent back to Taixuan Envoy Pinghan Zhenren, he took a look at it and saw that there was an extra line of red comments on it.
"I have read it. I have ordered Beitian Mansion to keep a close watch on it, but not to interfere." This was the red-ink comment from the Queen Mother of the West on this memorial.
The Taixuan Envoy put away the memorial, then bowed and said, "I obey the order."
Then the Queen Mother of the Nine Heavens asked, "Do you have anything else to report?"
This time everyone responded in unison: "Reporting to the Lord, there are no more."
The Lady of the Nine Heavens said, "Since that's the case, then everyone should return to their respective offices."
"Yes." Everyone bowed and said, "We will take our leave."
Afterwards, the sixteen first-rank immortal officials left the Taixuan Hall in an orderly manner, and immediately only Wenshi Zhenren, Fang Jian, Jiutian Xuannu and a group of immortal children were left in the hall.
The Lady of the Nine Heavens asked Fang Jian, "Do you have any questions for me?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Jian immediately said, "Great Envoy, I do have one thing I don't understand."
The Lady of the Nine Heavens nodded and said, "Tell me everything you want."
Fang Jian asked, "Great Envoy, since I am both a Minister of Works and a Judge of Heaven, I wonder which of these two positions I should prioritize from now on?"
Upon hearing this, Lady Jiu Tian Xuan Nu chuckled and said, "It's up to you."
"Huh?" Fang Jian was startled and said, "On my own? This..."
Seeing that he was still a little confused, Jiu Tian Xuan Nu said to Master Wen Shi, "Since you are the envoy of Tai Xuan Du Province, please explain the duties of the Tai Xuan Cheng Wu Lang to him."
"I will obey the law." Wenshi Zhenren responded immediately.
The Lady of the Nine Heavens said to Fang Jian, "Follow the Provincial Envoy of Zhitaixuandu and learn more about your duties."
Fang Jian bowed and said, "Yes, Great Envoy."

The Lady of the Nine Heavens smiled slightly, and then a mysterious light fell from her head. The figure of the Lady of the Nine Heavens slowly disappeared in the Taixuan Hall.
...
After the Lady of the Nine Heavens left, Master Wenshi walked down the steps, came before Fang Jian and said, "Follow me."
"Yes." Fang Jian responded, then followed Master Wenshi and walked out of the Taixuan Palace.
After walking out of the Taixuan Palace, Wenshi Zhenren turned around and pointed to the side halls on both sides of the Taixuan Palace and said, "These side halls are the official rooms of the Taixuan Palace. In these official rooms are the scribes, messengers, and attendants who are directly under the Taixuan Province. They are all fifth-rank officials.
"Immortal Official. You are Taixuan Chengwulang, a fourth-rank Immortal Official. You may choose one of the official rooms on either side of the Taixuan Palace as your office. Also, the scribes, messengers, and attendants must obey your orders."
"Also, your position as Taixuan Chengwulang is an idle one. If the Grand Envoy and I need help, we'll assign it to you. Of course, there aren't many such matters, so the Grand Envoy said it's up to you."
"However, sometimes there are special things that I need you to do, but I will inform you in advance, so don't worry."
As he spoke, Master Wenshi had already stepped into the side hall on the left side of Taixuan Palace. Fang Jian responded and followed him in.
As soon as he entered the side hall, Fang Jian heard a loud noise.
I have to say that the sound insulation effect of the buildings in the Heavenly Palace is very good. Every house has a sound insulation formation. As long as you don’t enter the house, you can’t hear any sound inside even if you put your ear to the door.
The spacious side hall was filled with neatly arranged white jade tables, and behind each of them sat a fifth-rank immortal official.
But they were not like this just now. When Fang Jian just came in, these immortal officials who were sitting there upright were sitting in groups of three, five, seven or eight, chatting and laughing. It was very noisy, which made Fang Jian a little dazed for a while, as if he was back in the classroom when he was in school.
