it seemed the situation was even more severe than he had imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi was not one to waste time, and he spoke directly: \"Can any of you tell me about the Five Emperors Mountain scenic area in Border City?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did it suppress five Dragon Veins under the mountain, obtain the approval of the scenic area permit smoothly, without any records at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t tell me there are no files from the past or there was no precedent, and thus you didn’t investigate; since I took charge, the funding of the Special Administration Bureau has increased at least tenfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You have enough funds to re-investigate all the mountains, rivers, and streams across the nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now, a scenic spot with tens of millions of visitors annually has no records from the Special Administration Bureau!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those present had been acquainted with Xie Xuzhi for quite a few years, not daring to claim they fully understood his character.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they could still sense when Xie Xuzhi was truly angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those quick-minded were startled by the content of Xie Xuzhi’s words, their hearts racing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tens of millions of visitors; if the Dragon Vein remains calm, that’s fine, but if there’s any change discovered, it would be enough to rid the Special Administration Bureau of everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Words spoken by Director Xie need no questioning for their authenticity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They understood their own people; to say it’s about inability, failing to detect the Dragon Vein, it would be better to say they’re all fools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, there’s only one explanation: within the Special Administration Bureau, there’s a deeply hidden group of people, so powerful it’s unimaginable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s even scarier is the purpose behind those people; those are five Dragon Veins, surely not kept hidden for fun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder Director Xie got so furious; his own home was robbed, right under his nose, how could he not be angry?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minister Zhou had thought of many reasons for questioning, from dereliction of duty to deceiving superiors, defrauding subsidies...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he never expected the result to be ten or a hundred times heavier than imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minister Zhou was so scared that tears streamed down: \"Director Xie, wronged, I am truly wronged, I really didn’t know about this matter...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he couldn’t care about his status as minister, he had to clear himself, or he’d really be wronged to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who usually liked being a nice guy, at this moment, had a mouth tighter than a clam shell; he couldn’t let any blame fall on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, some others secretly began to reflect if there had been anything odd when interacting with others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just imagining someone they’ve been with for decades could be an internal traitor made their hair stand on end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi sat at the head, watching everyone’s small movements below clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, he called out Minister Zhou separately, not thinking he could extract someone in such a short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just to shake the tiger by hitting the mountain, letting those hiding in the Special Administration Bureau know that he’s aware of their secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Before finding the person who meddled, all of you cannot act alone, you must operate in teams of three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, there will be drones following, supervising; all your actions will be directly shared on the big screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If anyone wants to repent and make amends, you can redeem yourself with merit, I can let bygones be bygones, but you have only this one chance to confess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, those stubborn and unrepentant ones, dead set on a dark path, I can ensure you regret coming into this world, you know my methods.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi finished and paused, his gaze sweeping across everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi was clearly just an ’ordinary person’ who didn’t understand the Xuan Sect’s methods, yet here the people, any one of whom could be considered a big shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Solely was skinned alive by his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Meeting adjourned!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The eight behind Xie Xuzhi hurriedly followed him out, the meeting room remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until Xie Xuzhi’s figure disappeared from view, the quiet scene boiled over like water in hot oil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Minister Zhou, you truly got us into trouble!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, a team of three with drone following; this is outright surveillance, all of us are suspected by Director Xie!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am the one truly falsely accused, alright, I’m just from the pure admin department, usually have no relation with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Xuzhi’s real confidants were only briefly flustered; now knowing the specifics, they calmed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing those constantly claiming they are innocent, they directly rebutted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They say the upright aren’t worried about a slanted shadow; if you’re really innocent, it’s just a special treatment for special times, everyone’s the same, what’s to complain about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right, as long as you’re clean, accept supervision and you can clear your name!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Director Xie isn’t petty; once those rotten apples are extracted, for those truly wronged, will Director Xie treat you poorly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After returning to his office, Xie Xuzhi used his encrypted phone, made quite a few calls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The private jet was finally arranged, and with his confidants, hurriedly rushed towards Border City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Yun Ran and the rest were much more relaxed, sitting atop the mountain, enjoying the rare moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sun had risen high, and the clouds surrounding the summit looked like a fairyland under the sunlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they arrived, each of them carried a not-too-large or small bag, filled with gear for outdoor preparation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Ran sat on a mat, eating her first meal of the day, feeling unexpectedly pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit was at the entrance, occasionally looking down, pacing back and forth many times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Yun Ran wasn’t looking directly at Dragon Spirit, his presence still somewhat distracted her vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could you stop pacing, it’s disturbing me!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit’s figure paused, showing a speechless expression: \"You truly have a big heart, still able to eat, play well?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Ran closed her eyes, feeling the comfort of the sunlight on her body, lazily creating a sleepy sensation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s not that I have a big heart, it’s that yours isn’t calm. Gu Yuan said he would meet us, he’ll surely come; no matter how anxious, you can’t fly up to replace him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragon Spirit really could fly up, but alas, there were too many people here, if seen that would be troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to out-talk Yun Ran, Dragon Spirit no longer busied himself around her, he opted to go further down the entrance, that should keep him occupied.\u003C\u002Fp>",1105,"2026-06-06T11:49:06.359Z",1,"novelbin.me","1d7b35c70607eb13c948fb06369521b6b5247de895092e1b008d48ed14b9eb37","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-824","cannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-chapter-823",1219,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcannon-fodder-heiress-turns-the-tables-by-fortun-cover.jpg"]
