Ma Zhou and Liu Rengui selected one by one according to their requirements.

Nearly one hundred people were selected in the afternoon, but the long team in front of them indicates that people were constantly joining the recruiting team, which made them unexpected.

However, more than one hundred people are enough, and there is really no way to accommodate so many people.

They can't help but worry.

In fact, we can't blame them for not expecting this matter. Instead, the salary offered by Li Ke's mansion is relatively generous, which allows some scholars who have no income to get a share of their income that can satisfy their living income without physical labor. How can they not come?

Li Ke also saw a long queue in front of the door. After asking the whole story in detail, Li Ke smiled and said, "Don't worry about Binwang and Zhengze. Continue to recruit according to your requirements, and then, train them. I will make arrangements."

After hearing Li Ke's words, Ma Zhou and Liu Rengui were no longer worried and continued their recruitment work.

Li Ke thought in his heart that it takes many referees and coaches to build Cuju into a professional league.

If these people are trained and then issued a document in the name of King Cuju of Han, saying that they have been trained to be qualified as coaches and referees, the coaches will not have to worry about becoming guests of the wealthy businessmen's homes, and the referees can be transferred to various states and counties to judge the competition.

Doesn’t this solve the problem of the team’s future talent tension?

When Li Ke thought of this, he smiled slightly.

After leaving Li Ke's study, Chen Qi summoned fifty eagle guards together and said, "The Chang'an City Tournament will be held in November. Your Highness is afraid that someone will make trouble in the competition.

Therefore, the special mission Eagle Guard secretly investigates suspicious people who have no intention of the game. Now, everyone obeys my orders."

When the fifty eagle guards heard this, they all looked in awe.

Chen Qi sent him: "Wang Zhongchang and Zhu Tong led two teams to secretly supervise and investigate suspicious figures in Chang'an City. If there is any information, I will repay me in time. Whenever I encounter necessary, I can hand it over to Jingzhao Yin first."

Wang Zhongchang and Zhu Tong came out and said, "Abide by the order!"

Chen Qi also said: "The remaining three teams, Hou Hu and Mengshan, each led a team to secretly monitor all the situations of each team and its formation."

The two of them said in unison: "Abide by the order!"

Chen Qi continued: "The remaining team is responsible for protecting His Highness's safety."

Everyone took the order and left and began to carry out their own tasks.

"Hou Hu and Meng Shan stayed."

Chen Qi called out the two of them just as everyone was about to leave.

Hou Hu and Meng Shan are Chen Qi's sworn brothers, so if you know that Chen Qi will keep them, you must have other arrangements.

After Chen Qi and others left, they said to Hou Hu and Meng Shan: "Two brothers, we are ordinary soldiers and are destined to be wrapped in corpses on the battlefield; and now we have entered the palace, we are deeply trusted by Your Highness and appointed important positions. We must repay Your Highness for your grace to the death."

Hou Hu and Meng Shan were both appointed as the captain of the guard after Chen Qi was appointed as the captain of the guard. They were recommended by Chen Qi and appointed as the commander of the team by Li Ke.

Although he was a small official, in the Tang Dynasty, if it were not for the promotion of military merits and without extraordinary talents, a civilian would not dare to expect to obtain a single official and half position.

Therefore, the two were even more loyal to Li Ke and swear to be loyal to him.

When Chen Qi first met the two, he knew that they were extremely powerful and loyal, so he would become brothers with these two people. Now, Chen Qi no longer concealed his ideas and said bluntly: "Your Highness is worried that some people will secretly destroy the Chang'an City Tournament, making it difficult to complete the game successfully. Therefore, Your Highness asked us, Eagle Guards, to seize all the things that are unfavorable to the game before the game.

Today, I have arranged for Wang Zhongchang and Zhu Tong to thoroughly investigate the suspicious people in Chang'an, which can only prevent but not completely eliminate them.

Because, those who can make things difficult for Your Highness are definitely not mediocre people.

Therefore, I will arrange for you to lead your subordinates to closely monitor every move of the ministers in the court, and you must immediately repay me if there is any situation."

After hearing Chen Qi's arrangement, the two were not surprised. As their sworn brother, they fully trusted Chen Qi, so they said without hesitation: "Please rest assured, brother, I will definitely complete the task and will not disappoint Your Highness."

Chen Qi knew that his two brothers were capable, but added: "If you encounter something, be sure to act cautiously."

The two said, "Okay!"

Chen Qi said: "You guys go down!"

After the two left, Chen Qi felt a little nervous. He arranged the surveillance of the loyal ministers of the court without authorization, but he didn't know what Li Ke would do to him after he found out.

However, he didn't care about these things, but more about how to enable the Eagle Guard to play his abilities and ensure the game is safe.

Li Ke, who was practicing calligraphy in the study, did think of Chen Qi's arrangements like this because he knew Chen Qi.

Moreover, for a long time, he instilled knowledge in Chen Qi about establishing a spy system.

Therefore, he was confident and satisfied that his Eagle Guard would become a spy system similar to the Jinyi Guard of the Ming Dynasty under the leadership of Chen Qi, and would provide strong support for his stake in the capital."

......Li Ke felt that he still needed to discuss the matters of Chang'an League with Cen Wenben, so he drove to Cen's mansion.

Cen Wenben invited Li Ke to the study room, and the two sat opposite each other.

Li Ke said, "Ke was confined to his father for one month and held a Cuju drill competition. I can only come to see you today. I hope you don't blame me."

Cen Wenben bowed, "How can Wenben blame Your Highness? The Cuju drill held by Your Highness was very successful and was deeply appreciated by the emperor. I am also happy for Your Highness."

Li Ke took a deep breath, "Sir, now I want to hold the Chang'an City Competition, I hope Mr. can give me some advice."

Seeing that Li Ke was talking solemnly, Cen Wenben said, "Please tell me your highness."

"There are two purposes for holding the Chang'an City Competition: one is to show my abilities to my father.

Second, through this competition, the murderer behind the scenes who assassinated me and wanted to kill me."

Li Ke said respectfully, "It's just that the risk is quite high, and I still need the guidance of my husband."

Cen Wenben thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, you can't have both fish and bear's paws. Do you want bear's paws?

Or want fish?"

Li Ke didn't understand what Cen Wenben meant and asked in confusion, "Please teach Ke."

Cen Wenben looked at Li Ke in front of him and felt that he was still a little too eager for quick success and instant benefits. "Your Highness wants to prove your ability to the emperor, there is nothing wrong with that.

However, the most urgent task is to find out the real murderer behind the scenes and the mastermind behind it, which is what Your Highness should do the most."

"Sir, do you mean to set up a bait with Chang'an City Tournament and completely chop off the mastermind behind this?"

Li Ke said thoughtfully, "But it is probably difficult for him to take the bait in Chang'an City Tournament."

Cen Wenben smiled and said, "Does Your Highness think that the real murderer behind the scenes can be completely eliminated through the Chang'an Tournament?"

"What do you mean by sir?"

Li Ke asked in confusion.

"Does Your Highness think the mastermind will come forward in person?"

Cen Wenben asked Li Ke that he wanted to take the exam to see if he understood this matter thoroughly.

"To be honest, I don't think the mastermind behind this is so easy to show up."

Li Ke said it very slowly, "He has a lot of cards in his hand, so he doesn't need to take risks.

Therefore, he will not play the cards in his hand in person without playing the cards."

Cen Wenben was quite satisfied with Li Ke's answer, "What would happen if he didn't want to take action against His Highness in person this time?"

Li Keqi said, “Why do sir say that?

Could it be that he has other plans?”
