Chapter 39 (Happy New Year's Eve)
in the imperial city.

Li Huang sat in the study, dealing with a mountain of memorials.

"His Majesty!"

Eunuch Lu walked to his side lightly.

"Ok!"

Li Huang responded lightly.

"Your Majesty, the Yunyan Sect was exterminated, and Zhen Wusi went to investigate the case. The Xin'an County King was ambushed by Fengqing Sect and Xinyi Sect on the official road back to the city."

"However, Xinyizong turned against him halfway, and took refuge in Zhenwusi, and rebelled against Fengqingmen."

Lu Gonggong's brief report.

"Is Prince Xin'an okay?" Li Huang asked.

"Everything is fine with Prince Xin'an, and the Zhenwusi didn't take any action, so Xinyizong has already solved everything." Eunuch Lu replied.

Hearing this, Li Huang raised his head and moved his somewhat stiff body.

"It's fine."

"By the way, have you found out who was behind the assassination of Xin'an County King?"

Eunuch Lu shook his head and said, "No, the assassin is in the Zhenwu Division, and the old servant has no way to contact him, nor can he get any useful information."

"However, Zhen Wusi seems to have got some clues. Zhuge Zheng and I are investigating this matter."

When Qin Wei was assassinated, the imperial city naturally paid attention.

Although Lihuang never inquired, Eunuch Lu had already arranged for the Imperial City Secretary to investigate.

It's a pity that the time is too short, and no useful clues have been obtained. The investigation of the Imperial City Division has hardly made any progress.

"Zhuge is right with me!"

Li Huang frowned slightly, and picked up a memorial.

"This Zhuge Zheng's origin is the same as that of Yuwen Chengdu and Tie Youxia, as if it appeared out of thin air."

"The same is true of Li Ru, the commander of Zhenwu Division."

Mr. Lu is fair.

As for Zhenwusi, Huangchengsi has been staring at it all the time, and has checked almost everyone in Zhenwusi to the bottom, but the chess pieces just appeared out of thin air.

Li Huang looked at the memorial, thoughtful.

This memorial was sent by Qin Wei to apply for official positions for Zhuge Zhengwo, Hong Fei, Cui Shimao and others.

"How is this Zhuge Zhengwo's cultivation?"

"It shouldn't be weak, but this person has never made a move. The Imperial City Secretary is currently unable to determine his specific cultivation level." Eunuch Lu replied.

Li Huang nodded slightly, then took a pen and wrote down the word "read" on the memorial, which was regarded as his approval of Qin Wei's request.

"The Zhenwu Division still lacks two commanders. You can choose two suitable people from the Imperial City Division to fill them."

When the Zhenwu Division was first established, the official positions included one commander, two commanders, and four commanders.

At present, Qin Wei is the commander, Luo Jin and Zhuge Zhengwo are the commanders, Li Ru and Tie Shou are the commanders, and there are only two commanders left for high-level officials.

Li Huang agreed to Qin Wei's request, but felt that it was inappropriate for some unknown people to control the Zhenwu Division, so he wanted to let Eunuch Lu choose two people from the Huangcheng Division to join the Zhenwu Division.

As for why he didn't choose the court, it was because there were too many officials involved in the court, and Li Huang felt that it would be better for the current Zhenwusi to be purer.

"The old slave feels that Wang An and Qi Lin are suitable!" Lu Gong said fairly.

Wang An, one of the four deputy admirals of the Imperial City Division, is an eunuch in the palace and belongs to the Supervisor of Ceremonies.

When Qin Wei went to the Imperial City Department to transfer files, he had contacted Wang An.

And Qi Lin is an undercover envoy of the Imperial City Division, responsible for secretly inquiring about information, with a cultivation level of ninth rank, one of the highest among the few people in the Imperial City Division.

Mr. Lu did not choose people randomly, and he also had his own considerations in choosing these two people.

Wang An is his confidant, letting Wang An enter the Zhenwu Division is equivalent to his reaching into the Imperial City Division, and it will be more convenient for him to learn about the internal affairs of the dynasty in the future.

Of course, this is not his selfishness, his cronies are Li Huang's cronies, he arranged for Wang An to join the Zhenwu Division just to better understand the Zhenwu Division's internal movements, and he did not mean to intervene in the Zhenwu Division.

And Qi Lin has a high level of cultivation, strong strength, and outstanding ability to handle affairs. Letting him join Zhenwu Division can enhance the strength of Zhenwu Division.

If it wasn't for Lihuang's high regard for Zhen Wusi, Eunuch Lu would not give up and let Qi Lin go.

Li Huang nodded and said, "You can arrange it."

As he spoke, he handed the memorial in his hand to Eunuch Lu, then lowered his head to deal with the memorial on the filing table again.

"Old slave quit!"

Eunuch Lu slowly exited the study with the memorial in hand.

……

Following the tragic destruction of the Yunyan Sect and the Fengqing Sect, it was inevitable that there would be another turmoil in the capital city.

However, this turmoil did not cause much commotion. Although many people suspected that Zhenwusi was responsible for the massacre of Yunyanzong's extermination, no one really took this matter against Zhenwusi.

It's just a Jianghu sect, and to those honorable ministers, it's just an insignificant existence.

In contrast, they paid more attention to the situation of Dali Temple and Jiangyuan.

When Jiang Yuan was escorted back to Zhenwu Division, many people had already paid attention to this matter, but most of them didn't know the specific situation, so they didn't take any action.

After Qin Wei returned to Zhenwu Division, he asked Li Ru to write a memorial to impeach Jiang Yuan and send it to the palace, along with the account book he had seized from Yunyan Sect.

After Qin Wei's memorial entered the palace, the officials in the court realized that so many things had happened behind it.

At first, all the officials thought it was impossible, but faced with such a detailed account book, they couldn't believe it.

When Emperor Li received the memorial and impeachment, he was furious and ordered the three major yamen, the Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Zhenwu Division, to investigate the bribery case of Dali Temple.

It stands to reason that such a case involving an important court official should be tried by the three divisions, that is, the Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Dali Temple.

But because the case happened inside Dali Temple and was excavated by Zhenwusi, Zhenwusi was appointed to replace Dali Temple.

Zhenwusi's replacement of Dali Temple seems to be just a coincidence arrangement, but it also proves that Zhenwusi is qualified to intervene in criminal and prison cases.

On the other side, Tie Shou led Zhen Wusi's troops to seal off Fengqingmen's Zongmen residence.

The situation of Fengqingmen is similar to that of Yunyanzong, and they didn't leave much money, presumably the money also went into some people's pockets, but Zhen Wusi didn't find anything like books in Fengqingmen.

It can only be said that Jiang Yuan was unlucky to meet a Yunyan sect who likes to keep accounts, and he likes to keep accounts for Dali Temple.

The matter of Fengqingmen is relatively simple. After all, they blatantly attacked Qin Wei. Zhenwusi didn't need to investigate, and he could directly charge them with a crime of harming the royal family.

On the contrary, the matter of Yunyan Sect was more troublesome. Tieshou led people to investigate for several days, but they did not get any useful clues.

It was as if those criminals appeared out of nowhere, and there was no trace of them in the capital.

They certainly didn't appear out of thin air, but someone had wiped all traces of them.

this day.

In the retreat hall.

"Meet Your Royal Highness!"

After Qin Wei took his seat, more than a dozen people bowed and bowed.

Qin Wei raised his head and glanced peacefully at everyone in the hall, and nodded in a good mood.

"You are welcome to take your seats!"

Commanders: Zhuge Zhengwo, Luo Jin.

Commanders: Li Ru, Tie Shou, Wang An, Qi Lin.

Thousand households: Yuwen Chengdu, Cheng Zhao.

Deputy thousand households: Cui Shimao, Hong Fei.

Zhenfu envoys: Pang Yuan, Liang Xuan, Dai Xu, Shao Cheng.

In addition to these people in front of you, there are more than 500 civil servants and more than 500 soldiers in the entire Zhenwu Division.

In two months, it has been extremely difficult for Zhen Wusi to develop from scratch to what he is now.

After everyone was seated, Qin Wei's eyes lingered on Wang An and Qi Lin for a moment.

Regarding Lihuang's arrangement, Qin Wei naturally would not refute it, and it was only natural for Lihuang to send people to Zhenwusi.

Luo Jin before, Wang An and Qi Lin now, these three people are all the same.

 I wish you all book friends a happy New Year's Eve!
