Imperial henchmen? Never been struck by the sword of the Six Doors (a secret police agency).

Baiyun Mountain, the summit.

Li Junsu was talking to Jian Wu about swordsmanship. Although Li Junsu was not very familiar with swords, he was very good at talking nonsense.

Even He Chang, who was standing to the side, was stunned by what he heard.

......

Liangyi Hall

"It's been a long time since I've received a letter," the Emperor said with a smile, looking at the seal on the Six Doors.

Fang Xuanlin and the others remained silent, using their silence to urge the emperor to resolve the matter quickly.

They wouldn't have done this if it were someone else, but unfortunately, they were following Wei Feng.

It was Wei Feng who, while playing with the bird, was afraid of being "admonished" by Wei Zheng, so he hid the little bird in his sleeve, smothering his beloved bird to death, and secretly wiped away his tears.

"How clueless about romance!" the emperor said, opening the letter.

"Hmm?!" The emperor stopped stroking his beard and brought the letter closer.

"Hahaha, I never expected that our Great Qian would have such a remarkable person." Then, a loud laugh echoed throughout the Liangyi Hall.

Fang Xuanlin and Du Ruhui looked at each other, and then fell silent.

His Majesty is truly happy, so they don't need to ask; His Majesty will tell them himself.

"I thought this little fellow had only bound the Gu Clan to the Six Doors, but I didn't expect him to bind the Gu Clan directly to the Great Qian Dynasty," the emperor said with satisfaction.

The emperor valued the integration of the Gu tribe with Lingnan more than the profits from the Gu tribe business.

Li Junsu's move was excellent, very good; he liked it very much.

He hoped that under his rule, the Great Qian Dynasty would become a prosperous era, a prosperous era that future generations would be proud of.

He knew that the people were the water and the court was the boat; the water could carry the boat, but it could also capsize it.

Such a win-win situation and such a popular strategy pleased the emperor greatly.

"Leave everything from Juyi Tower to him, and let Yingbin Tower take charge of some of the palace supplies." The emperor looked at the two reports below and casually muttered to himself.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to take a look." Fang Xuanlin was somewhat surprised. What exactly was the Six Doors doing?

After a moment, Fang Xuanlin and Du Ruhui exchanged a glance and nodded at the same time.

It's a pity that this chief constable doesn't enter the imperial court.

"Tell the Six Doors that the little guy has given them all the money he earned as funds. Release him; the court needs him," the emperor ordered before anyone could speak.

"Your Majesty, isn't this inappropriate?" Wei Zheng asked slowly as he put down the letter.

"Is there something wrong?" the emperor asked calmly, without any hurry.

“It’s true that this kid is very skilled, but his bloodthirstiness is even stronger…” Wei Zheng touched his neck and said.

The emperor certainly wouldn't do anything to him, but if the young man got agitated, a blade of energy might fly towards him...

Wei Zheng knew how awkward his position as an advisor was; if it had been the emperor of the previous dynasty, he would have been dragged out and beheaded.

It was because the emperor was so magnanimous that Wei Zheng dared to speak his mind; he wouldn't have said anything if it were anyone else.

Moreover, Wei Zheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw the name Li Junsu. He felt that he would have many more opportunities to meet this chief constable in the future.

"It's alright. This little guy's grandfather is a Taoist, so he must have a very good temper," the emperor said, waving his hand dismissively.

Fang Xuanlin twitched his eye. He knew Lingnan Xiao's record very well.

However, Fang Xuanlin did not speak, because he also felt that Li Junsu would be able to play a better role if he entered the court.

This method is simple, yet brilliant. I'll lead you to victory; hop on my chariot. There's no ill intent, no malice, only a simple win-win situation and long-term cooperation.

"Taoist sect?" Du Ruhui raised an eyebrow.

“Yes, speaking of which, his grandfather had quite a connection with us,” the emperor said meaningfully.

"One of the Hundred Kings of the Great Martial World?" Fang Xuanlin seemed to have thought of something and asked.

"What's the point of revealing the answer so directly?" the emperor complained.

The Great Wu Hundred Kings is the current retired emperor, Li Yuan's masterpiece.

In order to gain the help of various forces and due to his own magnanimous character, the former retired emperor conferred titles upon about a hundred princes of various ranks. Fortunately, the current emperor nipped this trend of conferring titles in the bud.

In addition, a large portion of them didn't take it seriously... mainly because they were the emperor's men, whom they couldn't afford to offend.

After the emperor provided the compensation, they accepted the offer and stopped while they were ahead. Some of the Taoists were simply there to help the emperor.

This has led to a situation where, despite the repeated emphasis by the Great Qian Dynasty on the existence of the Great Wu Dynasty before it, the people of the world only know about the Great Qian Dynasty, and a large portion of them are unaware that the Great Qian Dynasty also had an Emperor Emeritus.

The retired emperor didn't care and spent his days indulging in pleasure, living a carefree life.

Li Qingfeng was a Taoist priest who had been assigned to a city. Taoists value taking on responsibilities, and since the responsibility had been assigned to him, Li Qingfeng felt embarrassed to ignore it.

But Li Qingfeng only managed to govern for a few years before gradually returning power to the dynasty and retiring from public life. Only the name of Qingfeng City remained in a corner of the Great Qian Dynasty.

“So, Weiyuan…has a closer connection with our imperial court,” Du Ruhui said decisively.

Good heavens, what a coincidence! He should come to the Taiji Hall.

"Not bad," the emperor said with a smile, stroking his beard.

He was overjoyed to have discovered another capable minister.

......

Six Doors, Headquarters.

"I object." Tie Bansheng was the first to raise his hand.

What a joke! Li Junsu is the perfect candidate for chief constable. In Lingnan, no one else can do it.

"I object," Qin Yihang nodded in agreement.

Qin Yihang's situation was quite simple. Li Junsu did a great job; the Six Doors were short-staffed and it was impossible for anyone to leave.

"I object." Jiao Quanyi nodded in agreement.

Li Junsu is his future subordinate, how could he let him run away?

“Then I also object,” Yan Sansi said casually.

Since all three older brothers are against it, then he might as well oppose it too.

“Unanimously against. I’ll go talk to the boss.” Qin Yihang stood up and said.

The Six Doors have already taken many people from the Ministry of Justice and the Court of Judicial Review. Now the imperial court is also asking for people. What do they take them for?

The Six Doors talent training base? They snatch away any talent that shows their potential.

......

Liangyi Hall

A wisp of black mist slowly condensed, and Xing Sha's figure emerged.

"Your Majesty." Xing Sha knelt on one knee and bowed his head.

"You refuse to release them?" The emperor leaned forward, a smile playing on his lips.

“He’s more suited to the Six Doors,” Xing Sha said, bowing his head.

"Alright, for the Gu Clan's business, you and the little guy will each get 30%, and I'll take a larger share," the emperor said with a smile.

Since they refused to release him, he could only offer himself some money as a consolation prize, while still having to take care of the Six Doors and the meritorious official himself.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Xing Sha replied, still keeping his head bowed.

“A curse,” the emperor said.

Xing Sha raised his head.

"If he agrees, you'll have to release him." Sunlight streamed into the Taiji Hall, and the emperor wore a confident smile.

......

"Xing Sha... Follow me, and I will surely restore a glorious era to you." The emperor on horseback, clad in black armor, extended his hand with unwavering strength.

"Okay." Xing Sha reached out and shook the hand of the person who would guide him from the future.

......

"Okay." It was still just one word, spoken in the same tone.

"It's settled then, just you wait and see," the emperor said with a grand gesture.

Wei Zheng watched this scene, and a smile secretly crept onto his lips.

The Six Doors have truly defied the Emperor's authority, but alas... their Emperor is the Phoenix.

With the ambition to rule the world in his heart, he dared to believe in Xing Sha's absolute loyalty.

It's like when Fang Xuanlin tied up those who accused him of rebellion and brought them to the front lines, the emperor had them beheaded without batting an eye.

Afterwards, the emperor even mocked Fang Xuanlin for not being able to make decisions on such a trivial matter.

The reason was simply that he trusted Fang Xuanlin, nothing more.

It's no wonder Yun Wujing said that only the Majestic Phoenix could suppress the Evil Dragon. Perhaps... the Evil Dragon grew unchecked under the Majestic Phoenix's wings.
