Zongwu: Start as Jinyiwei, invincible and powerful!

Soon, the imperial edict was read.

The content is also very simple, rewarding the Jinyiwei commander Jiang Bin with a jade ruyi and ten thousand taels of silver!

In addition, Lin Fan was promoted to the Northern Pacification Envoy of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After hearing the contents of the imperial edict, Jiang Bin and Lin Fan bowed respectfully to Zhu Shou and expressed their gratitude.

"No need to be polite," Zhu Shou said, waving his hand. "Alright, you can go down."

"I resign from my humble position!"

Jiang Bin and Lin Fan responded respectfully, then left Yong'an Palace together and left the palace directly.

"Go back and rest for a while, and then come back to the Northern Pacification Division tomorrow to take up your post."

After leaving the palace, Jiang Bin said to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your cultivation, sir."

Jiang Bin patted Lin Fan on the shoulder and said with a smile, "I'm very optimistic about you, and I hope you don't go astray in the future."

Lin Fan understood Jiang Bin's meaning and immediately said, "Don't worry, Master Jiang. I will always be loyal to you."

Of course, this is just talk.

Lin Fan would not be loyal to anyone except himself, not even the emperor, let alone Jiang Bin.

Jiang Bin naturally didn't know what Lin Fan was thinking. After hearing Lin Fan's words, he nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "You are wrong. We must all be loyal to His Majesty and fulfill our duties!"

"I'll keep in mind Lord Jiang's teachings," Lin Fan clasped his fists and responded casually.

Jiang Bin nodded in satisfaction, then strode away.

After watching Jiang Bin's back disappear from his sight, Lin Fan turned around and returned to his residence.

Since Jiang Bin has already said that he can rest today, why should he be so hard on himself?

It’s just right, I can take this opportunity to go back and practice the Sacred Heart Technique.

"Sir, you are back!"

As soon as Lin Fan returned home, Lin Pingzhi took the initiative to greet him and greeted him respectfully.

Di Yun stood behind Lin Pingzhi, feeling a little uncomfortable.

Lin Fan waved his hand and said, "Go in, no need to be so polite. Have someone arrange accommodation for Di Yun as well."

"Yes, sir," Lin Pingzhi responded respectfully after hearing this.

Now Lin Pingzhi has lowered his posture and is willing to be Lin Fan's servant, so Lin Fan asks him to help manage the household.

Anyway, Lin Fan is the only master of his home now. He just bought a few maids and a nanny to cook and clean, so there is not much to do.

After asking Lin Pingzhi to arrange Di Yun's affairs first, Lin Fan returned directly to his room and began to try to practice the Sacred Heart Sutra.

Because it was a technique rewarded by the system, Lin Fan could automatically comprehend it to perfection, and there was no difficulty in practicing it.

Lin Fan tried practicing for a few cycles and found that after practicing the Sacred Heart Technique, the growth of his true energy was many times faster than when he practiced the Nine Yang Divine Art.

"That's right, I will focus on the Sacred Heart Sutra from now on." Lin Fan experienced the effect of the Sacred Heart Sutra and nodded with satisfaction.

As his cultivation level continued to improve, the Nine Yang Divine Art could no longer keep up, so the reward from the Sacred Heart Sutra came just in time.

After practicing the contents of the Sacred Heart Sutra for a while, Lin Fan tried to practice the Four Tribulations of the Sacred Heart and the Four Absolutes of the Sacred Heart that came with the Sacred Heart Sutra.

In fact, the Immortal Steps that Lin Fan obtained by signing in before were originally part of the Sacred Heart Sutra.

Now, after his internal skills were transformed into the Sacred Heart Sutra, the power of his Immortal Steps would be further enhanced!

The next day, Lin Fan reported for duty at the Jinyiwei Northern Pacification Division. News of his appointment had spread throughout the entire Northern Pacification Division.

When everyone saw Lin Fan, they naturally congratulated him and greeted him without delay.

Although some people were dissatisfied, knowing that Lin Fan had a close relationship with the commander Jiang Bin, no one dared to say anything to his face.

Lin Fan didn't care much about this.

What he needs is to cultivate and promote his own confidants, such as Zhou Meng.

After the roll call, Lin Fan casually strolled around the Northern Pacification Office, and then went directly to Zhou Meng's office.

"Sir, why are you here? What instructions do you have?" Zhou Meng stood up quickly and bowed when he saw Lin Fan coming.

Although Lin Fan grew up under Zhou Meng's care, he would never consider himself an elder now.

In particular, he is still in the Northern Pacification Office.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Why should we be so distant with each other? I came to see you for two things."

Zhou Meng said, "Please give your instructions, sir."

"This is for you," Lin Fan took out a book and handed it to Zhou Meng.

Zhou Meng took it subconsciously, and saw the four large characters "Nine Yang Magical Art" written on the cover. He couldn't help but be shocked, "Sir, this is..."

"This is an internal martial arts technique I accidentally found. Uncle Zhou, you should practice it and improve your strength as much as possible," Lin Fan said sincerely.

"I have only been in the Northern Pacification Division for a short time, so I don't have anyone I can trust. Only Uncle Zhou can be relied upon as a confidant."

"I will do my best to promote Uncle Zhou, but Uncle Zhou's strength must also be improved, otherwise it will harm you."

"Thank you, sir!" Zhou Meng said solemnly, "No matter what, I will always stand by your side."

"Of course I trust Uncle Zhou," Lin Fan smiled slightly and continued, "Another thing is, I plan to promote Uncle Zhou to the rank of Captain. The contributions you have made during this period are more than enough."

"Thank you, sir!" Zhou Meng was surprised and delighted when he heard this.

He has been a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard for more than ten years, and is still only a general flag. He did not expect that he would get such a great reward for just taking care of Lin Fan.

"Well, this appointment will be announced soon. Uncle Zhou, just wait patiently. Also, once you've memorized the technique, just destroy it."

Lin Fan looked at Zhou Meng's consistent attitude and didn't try to persuade him.

"If you want to pass it on to your children or others in the future, please tell me in advance."

"I obey your command," Zhou Meng responded respectfully upon hearing this.

Lin Fan chatted with Zhou Meng for a few more words, then turned and left.

After returning from duty that day, Lin Fan passed on the Nine Yang Divine Art to Lin Pingzhi. Lin Pingzhi was naturally very grateful to Lin Fan.

In the following days, apart from reporting for duty at the Northern Pacification Office every day, Lin Fan devoted himself to cultivation. Any tasks were handled by his subordinates, and he lived a relaxed and comfortable life.

About half a month later, after Lin Fan finished his shift, he found Di Yun at the mansion alone.

"Greetings, Lord Lin. What instructions do you have for me?" Di Yun said respectfully after seeing Lin Fan.

During this period, Di Yun also roughly understood Lin Fan's official position and status. When facing Lin Fan, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. I called you here to tell you that everything about you has been investigated. You were indeed wrongly accused, and you are not a member of the Blood Blade Sect."

"Thank you, sir!" Di Yun was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly thanked Lin Fan.

Lin Fan waved his hand and said, "Don't be so quick to thank me. Although I've investigated the matter, it involves the Jingzhou prefect, so it's not easy to handle. If I want to clear your name, I'll need to put in some effort."

"I can't possibly offend the Jingzhou prefect for someone like you, an irrelevant person. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Di Yun's expression changed slightly, and he said cautiously, "I wonder what Your Excellency wants me to do?"
