After returning to the Eastern Palace, Xia Taige handed the imperial edict to Zhao Gao, leaving the rest of the details to Zhao Gao.

With so many talented people in the Zhenwu Division, Xia Taige no longer needs to worry!

Seeing this, Zhao Gao nodded and accepted the imperial edict with both hands.

Then, he turned around, picked up the intelligence he had just collected, and handed it to Xia Taige!

"Your Highness, with the recommendation of Chief Minister Lin, the positions of Minister of Revenue and Minister of Justice have been finalized!"

"The people recommended are all honest and capable."

Upon hearing this, Xia Taige picked up the intelligence report and read it carefully. He couldn't help but admire his future father-in-law's sharp eye!

Before the conflict broke out, Lin Dongshi was able to deliberately avoid these officials associated with the four major families based on some clues. He truly deserves to be called the Grand Secretary!

"Okay, let's do it this way!" Xia Taige nodded and casually put the intelligence aside.

"Yes!" Zhao Gao replied and then turned to leave.

With no worries about money, the matter of the Zhenwu Division branch can now be put on the agenda!

At Shenshi (3-5 PM), inside the Zhenwu Division, thanks to the efforts of more than two thousand Mo Dao soldiers, the silver sent by the Cai and Wang families was finally counted!

This shocking scene stunned the entire capital city.

The wagons loaded with silver had been arriving at the city gates in a continuous stream for two hours!

Ordinary people might not know what was on the carriage, but how could the powerful figures in the capital not know?

Immediately, countless eyes turned to the Zhenwu Division.

This is the first time the imperial court has ever squeezed such a huge amount of money out of the four great families!

This landmark victory propelled the Zhenwu Division to its peak!

The newly appointed head of the Zhenwu Division, Donghuang Taiyi, has become the most mysterious person in the eyes of many forces!

For someone with no reputation to surpass two deputy directors of the Zhenwu Division and be parachuted into becoming the director of the Zhenwu Division, no one would believe it unless they had some impressive abilities!

It's a pity that Donghuang Taiyi's whereabouts are unpredictable, and even the two deputy directors of the Zhenwu Division find it difficult to meet him!

Inside the main hall of the Zhenwu Division, Zhao Gao and Xiaoyaozi presided over the meeting, discussing the establishment of a branch of the Zhenwu Division with the four division chiefs!

Both Zhao Gao and Xiaoyaozi were intelligent people. One of them, a eunuch, became a person second only to the emperor!

A person who has created several martial arts manuals with his own talent and is unparalleled in the martial arts world is by no means stupid!

Sitting at the head of the table, Zhao Gao glanced at everyone and began to speak first:

"His Highness's opinion is to establish branches of the Zhenwu Division, radiating outwards from the capital city."

"While this plan is prudent, it is too slow to yield results!"

"In my opinion, the capital is in the north, so it can serve as a base. We can also set up another base in the south. This way, we can spread out from two directions and save at least half the time!"

"Of course, with enough experts in the future, we can definitely operate on three or four routes!"

After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he looked at everyone and waited for their opinions.

Seeing this, Yan Ri looked around and, seeing that no one spoke for a moment, said indifferently:

"This plan is too slow to be effective. In my opinion, it would be better to directly coerce the ten major sects, just like the Wuji Palace did. Wouldn't that be much more efficient?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao initially didn't want to pay any attention to Yan Ri, but seeing Yan Ri's murderous intent, he feared that Yan Ri might do something foolish and jeopardize the grand plan!

"Absolutely not! This plan would have too many consequences. Not all of the Ten Great Sects are like the Wuji Palace. If this happens, all the sects in the world might end up on the opposite side of the imperial court!"

"Currently, the Zhenwu Division's task of suppressing Buddhism is not yet complete, and there are no spare personnel to deal with the chaos!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Ri remained expressionless, and the murderous intent in his eyes immediately vanished!

For an assassin, this has always been the thing he longed for.

As the saying goes, "He who possesses a sharp weapon will be filled with murderous intent!"

Seeing this, Zhao Gao ignored him and turned to Xiaoyaozi to ask for his opinion!

"Brother Xiaoyaozi, what do you think?"

"Yes!" After a moment's thought, Xiaoyaozi nodded decisively in agreement.

"I will personally lead the team to the Southern Garrison Command stronghold. Let Yan Ri accompany me!"

"Besides, didn't His Highness give me a token?"

"I think we could easily select a Grandmaster-level expert from the royal family to open another base in the West!"

"With Brother Zhao Gao in charge of the capital, these three points complement each other! This will also save time more quickly!"

"What is your position, Brother Zhao Gao?"

"can!"

"If the members of the royal family don't contribute now, what use will they be in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao nodded affirmatively, fully agreeing with Xiaoyaozi's suggestion!

Now, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi is stationed in the capital.

These powerful members of the royal family have nothing to do in the capital, so it would be better to take them out and let them contribute their remaining energy!

With the establishment of the Zhenwu Division, these members of the royal family gradually lost their opportunity to use their talents!

The royal family continues to provide him with rare and precious materials for his cultivation every day!

"In that case, the matter is settled. Bai Yin, estimate the amount that needs to be taken and arrange for it to be loaded onto the truck immediately!"

"Within the Zhenwu Division, three thousand heavy cavalry will escort the convoy! This is to prevent bandits from attacking the caravan along the long journey!"

Donghuang Taiyi didn't care about these trivial matters. After Zhao Gao discussed it with Xiaoyaozi, he immediately made a decision!

The journey was long and the entourage was large, as transporting silver was indeed a troublesome affair!

Although Xiaoyaozi was there to oversee things along the way, there were bound to be some reckless fools who didn't know their own limitations. This was unavoidable!

Of the four directors of the Zhenwu Division, Yan Ri accompanied Xiaoyaozi, along with Yan Ri's commanders of thousands and hundreds!

After all, once the Zhenwu Division is established, it will need manpower to oversee it!

Seeing that the matter was over, Zhao Gao got up and went to the imperial mausoleum to summon experts!

Yesterday, after Donghuang Taiyi received the token, he handed it to Zhao Gao. Donghuang had no interest in the token whatsoever!

Outside the imperial mausoleum, Zhao Gao had just approached when he was stopped by the mausoleum guards!

"Approaching the imperial tombs is prohibited!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gao didn't say anything more, and directly took out the token and said:

"Zhao Gao, the deputy director of the Zhenwu Division, has come to the imperial mausoleum to recruit personnel on the orders of the Crown Prince!"

At this moment, deep within the imperial mausoleum, the old man, upon hearing the term "Zhenwu Division," opened his eyes and turned his gaze toward Zhao Gao, who was holding the token!

Since Donghuang Taiyi's sudden emergence yesterday and his appointment as the head of the Zhenwu Division, the old man has been learning about the Zhenwu Division in detail.

The more he learned, the more surprised he became. Even the old man, a terrestrial immortal, was quite astonished by the configuration of the Zhenwu Division!

The old man was astonished that Zhao Gao and Xiaoyaozi had reached the peak of the Grandmaster level at such a young age!

Reaching the peak of the Grandmaster level is a huge hurdle.

Those who have reached the pinnacle of Grandmaster in the past have all crossed this hurdle only after they have reached the age of sixty and their understanding of themselves has reached its peak.

It's truly remarkable that these two people have such insights at such a young age!
