When Chu Zhiyuan walked halfway, Feng Xi suddenly appeared.

"Your Majesty, a master has appeared." Feng Xi said softly, "I made my own decision and asked the three of them to withdraw."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "Well, Lao Feng, you did the right thing, Grandmaster..."

The destructive power of the Grandmaster is astonishing and beyond ordinary people's imagination. However, the Grandmaster of the Royal Palace can only use the three in front of him. The others have their own responsibilities and cannot be used without permission.

When it comes to masters, be extremely cautious.

When an innate master encounters a grandmaster, he has almost no power to resist. The crushing of realms is not just talk, it is an iron law proven by countless blood.

To be on the safe side, we need to rely on external forces.

Zongzhengsi or Zhenwusi?

Zongzhengsi is the yamen responsible for the affairs of the princes, emperors and grandsons. From food and clothing to life and death, Zongzhengsi is responsible for everything.

No matter how much Prince Qing's Mansion declines, it will still be the Prince's Mansion. Just say a word and Zong Zhengsi will increase the number of guards and even mobilize the Grand Masters from the Grand Master's Mansion to come.

The Zhenwu Division is also responsible for protecting the royal family. All it takes is to send someone to say so, and experts will be sent to reinforce it.

Should I choose Zongzhengsi, Zhenwusi, or both?

Chu Zhiyuan thought for a while: "Well, let me write to the Zhenwu Division for help. Who should I contact?"

Feng Xidao: "If you want to Zhenwu Division, go directly to the Zhongsi Chief?... There are five division heads under the Zhenwu Division. The four division chiefs of the Southeast, Southeast and Northwest are outside Beijing. The Zhongsi Chief is in Yujing, so it should be right to find the Zhongsi Chief. .”

"Then let's go to the Central Division Master. You won't be turned away, right?"

"Does the Crown Prince know this Chief of the Central Division?"

"Where can I meet you?" Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "Besides, he may not want to get to know me."

Guo Chi sneered: "Sir, the Zhenwu Division has indeed become more and more aggressive, and there is no hierarchy left!"

Feng Xi nodded lightly: "With so many masters at their disposal, I am naturally confident."

Guo Chi snorted, very unconvinced: "They belong to the imperial court, and the masters also belong to the imperial court. Everything they have is given by the imperial court."

"That's not necessarily true," Chu Zhiyuan laughed and shook his head: "They feel that they have earned their position by themselves."

The Zhenwu Division has a detached and independent status and belongs directly to the emperor. It is the true emperor's eagle dog.

The imperial court has no right to interfere with the promotion and appointment of the Zhenwu Division.

The emperor appointed Sizheng, and the remaining five chiefs and the positions below them were all won based on their respective abilities and merits.

When Chu Zhiyuan was studying the Zhenwu Division a few months ago, he was surprised by the founding emperor of the Jing Dynasty. He was so confident that he was not afraid of backlash?

He speculated that the emperor of the first dynasty allowed the Zhenwu Division to remain relatively independent, which was not only an encouragement to future emperors, but also a protection for the Zhenwu Division.

The Zhenwu Division's duties are very important. Firstly, it must be absolutely trusted by the court, and secondly, it must be enough to suppress the Zhenwu Division and cannot be ignored.

The Sizheng of the Zhenwu Division was often a great master, a great master who was deeply trusted by the emperor.

Now the Sizheng of the Zhenwu Division has been vacant for ten years. The previous Sizheng went to the four caves ten years ago to find the method to break through the realm.

Without Sizheng's suppression, the five chiefs could do their own thing and report directly to the emperor, which was tantamount to a higher level of power.

Thinking of this, he shook his head.

This is probably an act of decentralization of power. It seems that my imperial grandfather is a suspicious person and does not trust anyone to be the official.

——

Chu Zhiyuan went to the study before dinner to write a letter and handed it to Feng Xi.

When Feng Xi returned, Chu Zhiyuan had finished dinner and was playing the piano on the lake in the back garden.

The lake water swayed slightly, was bright and heavy.

The bright moon in the water seems to be constantly moving.

In the small pavilion in the center of the lake, the lights are brightly lit.

The sound of musical instruments floated out from the small pavilion and spread far along the lake.

Chu Zhiyuan sat cross-legged in front of the piano, closed his eyes slightly, and gently plucked the strings.

Zou Fang, wearing a blue robe and holding a white jade whisk, stood at the entrance of the pavilion, motionless like a wooden stake, blending into the pavilion and making it difficult to notice.

Two beautiful maids in colorful clothes sat next to Chu Zhiyuan, their graceful figures filled with fragrance.

Their bright eyes are good at gazing, and their eyes are full of waves. With their bright and green fingers, they will either pick up a piece of snacks or put a grape into his mouth.

Chu Zhiyuan has been learning the piano from Princess Ning Baishuang since he was a child. His piano skills are already very advanced, and he can adjust his mind by playing the piano.

The heartstrings are like the strings of a harp, they need to be adjusted to relax and relax. Tuning the heartstrings by playing the harp is a wonderful and quick way.

He wanted to calm down his mind.

The Great Snow Bend Sword Technique suppressed the princes and princes. No matter how they pretended to be calm, they were still inevitably excited and complacent, with pride welling up from the bottom of their hearts.

What's more, at dinner time, mother Bai Ningshuang was in high spirits, younger sister Chu Yi was beaming, and Chu Minghou, who had always been indifferent to worldly affairs, was also cheerful.

The event about the competition in the Mingwu Hall in the afternoon seemed to have grown wings and spread quickly throughout the palaces. Bai Ningshuang was chatting with Concubine Rou when she heard the news.

This makes them feel proud.

Chu Zhiyuan could not help but be affected, but he knew that he should not be impatient, and his heart should continue to practice seriously and think carefully.

Amidst the sound of the piano, Feng Xi appeared outside the small pavilion.

"Zheng——!"

Chu Zhiyuan pressed the strings and stopped suddenly.

Feng Xi stepped into the small pavilion, bowed and said: "Your Majesty."

"How?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.

Feng Xi shook his head helplessly: "I couldn't see the Chief Commander."

"Um--?"

"I was blocked from the outside by the guards. It was said that the boss was busy and I had to submit a message in advance to see him. Unless there was something urgent, I would not see him." Feng Xi said: "The slave has already handed over the letter."

"Then just wait."

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

This is why the princes and princes of the Great Jing Dynasty cannot be rich and idle.

Even as a prince, if he does not have enough power, he will still be wronged and feel weak, and he will neither be free nor comfortable.

The Zhenwu Division has the responsibility to protect the safety of the royal family, but now the head of the division can treat the prince like this.

Would it be better if it was Somasaji?

But choosing Zongzhengsi would involve too much and even alarm the entire royal family.

More importantly, Zong Zhengsi's behavior is different from that of Zhenwu Si. Zong Zhengsi will only send guards over, but Zhenwu Si will dig deep into the matter.

Chu Zhiyuan put all this aside in a blink of an eye and asked, "What are their three characters like?"

Feng Xi sighed: "Everything that's wrong with me makes me look like an old man."

"Let Liang Guanjie come over."

"yes."

Feng Xi exited the booth.

Chu Zhiyuan pushed Yao Qin away, stood up and stood in front of the railing, looking up at the bright moon in the night sky.

The moon and stars are sparse.

A cold wind blew and was blocked by the felt curtain hanging down on the north side of the pavilion, making it impossible to enter the pavilion.

The two maids shut their mouths obediently and stood quietly aside, staring at him with bright eyes like water.

Zou Fang still stood silently at the entrance of the pavilion.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at the bright moon, his thoughts racing.

Finally shook his head.

My own cultivation is not strong, the power of the palace is not strong, and my status is not high. It is really embarrassing to have to rely on the strength of others.

After all, taking advantage of the situation is not as good as your own strength, so you still have to practice well.

…

Liang Guanjie, with a shy belly, strode through the corridor and came to the small pavilion. He cupped his fists and saluted: "Sir."

"Lao Liang, how are you?"

"There is no one following the eldest son of the tenth prince and the thirteenth prince."

"No..." Chu Zhiyuan frowned.

That is only for yourself.

Not the enemy of the royal family, but the enemy of Prince Qing’s Mansion?

"...Those three friends of yours have a lot of minor problems. Can they be managed as your subordinates?"

"Absolutely no problem!" Liang Guanjie patted his chest without hesitation.

"You won't be restrained by feelings?"

Liang Guanjie grinned and said, "Young Master, please be careful. I was able to control them when I was at Yingyang Camp. Now I can control them. Taking care of them is a piece of cake."

"Then I'll assign it to you." Chu Zhiyuan patted the railing: "The four of you are responsible for tracking in the dark and are not included in daily patrols."

"Thank you sir!" Liang Guanjie was overjoyed.

This means an increase in status.

I was finally able to show off my talents.

It's really depressing to patrol like an ordinary guard. Only in the shadows can you feel at ease and at ease, and can you truly exert your power.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "When they cause trouble, you are the only one I ask!"

"Yes!" Liang Guanjie nodded solemnly.

Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand.

After Liang Guanjie clasped his fists and said goodbye, he held on to the railing and looked up to admire the moonlight.

There is a dark cloud floating towards the bright moon.

After a while, Chu Zhiyuan turned around and left the pavilion.

Zou Fang led the way with a lantern, and the two maids followed behind him, and they returned to Tingtao Courtyard together.

Back in the courtyard, Chu Zhiyuan waved his hand and told Zou Fang to rest without waiting.

Zou Fang respectfully stepped back.

Chu Zhiyuan began to practice Qigong.
